How to Claim Free KKcoin Tokens at Present?

To achieve the goal of creating a network of as many humans as possible, the majority of KKcoin tokens will be given to individuals over time in the form of user grants (aka “KKcoin Grants”)—simply for being a unique human.

At the early stage, there are 2 approaches for users to claim their free KKcoin grants: verifying their uniqueness and humanness via PoP(Proof of Personhood)verification or inviting friends to get verified:

🔹 Through Completing POP Verification

  • Step 1: What you need to do is to download the Konnect App (Currently a beta version but will come soon), the only site of free KKcoin grants.

  • Step 2: Fill in the referral code of your inviter and create a Konnect account

  • Step 3: Head to the KKcoin page and complete all the facial verification procedures to get your proof of personhood

Then you’ll be eligible for rewards by the 2 following forms of grants:

  • Welcome Grant: Imediately after entering the referral code and verifying with the privcy-preserving facial authentification, you can claim your Welcome Grant to celebrate that you have joined the Konnect network. At launch, the Welcome Grant amount will be 10 KKcoins. The amount is expected to decrease over time.

  • Recurring Grants: KID-verified individuals are allowed to claim their KKcoin grants in a recurring fashion. Each of them is only available for a certain time period(24 hours at present). After one grant period ends, a new one begins. Please note that the recurring grant is only available after your activation.

🔹 Through Inviting Friends

If you hope to receive more KKcoin rewards, you are welcome to invite your friends to sign up on Konnect and get their own Proof of Personhood. By invitation and your friend’s successful PoP verification, you are able to claim 25% of the KKcoin rewards from the person you directly invite and 10% of rewards from your friend’s invitees. While at the same time, your friends will immediately receive 10 KKcoins as the welcome grant we talked above. This mechanism gives a double-win bonus for both you and your friends.

With the evolution of the whole ecosystem, much more ways will be employed by the Konnectto construct a global social network that gives ownership of identity, contends and data back to users

As the journey into Web 3.0 unfolds, embracing Konnect would undoubtedly unlock a world of opportunities for individuals and businesses alike. And KKcoin, one of the significant infrastructure of this wonderland, may serve as the digital asset with surprise to watch

Safety reminder: Free KKcoins will only be claimable via Konnect App – there is no airdrop of KKcoin outside the Konnect App. Watch out for fake apps and fake KKcoin!
