Season 3 marked a milestone for River.
It moved the system from early incentives into a TGE-live incentive model, operating across product, capital, and community.
Season 3 ran with live incentives, open liquidity, and real user participation. The goal was straightforward: observe how the system operates once participation is shaped by market behavior.
S3 Participation Overview
- 130,000+ users participated in the S3 airdrop
- 33,000 eligible X accounts
- 30,000+ eligible on-chain addresses
