That’s not what happened, there's substantial context that he's not including. Nour has never communicated with our team. He was added to our group chat in January this year, but nobody has sent a single message in it. I’ve attached the screenshot. Partner NFTs didn’t receive the Shadow, Pharaoh or HyperEVM airdrops either. There were years of precedent for this, and the eligibility criteria were announced repeatedly on socials and in Discord. Almost every partner we asked understood the reasoning and returned their NFT. With Inverse, we had a lot of back and forth before we reached a compromise that they could use their veRAM to vote on ETH/USDC and keep the fees they collected, which they did. We agreed to that on the understanding that sINV/sDOLA would be coming to Ramses, but that never happened. (2nd attached photo) After that agreement, 13 months passed without another message from Inverse before they reached out to ask why they hadn’t received the airdrop. For context, Ramses was struggling to survive at that point. The partner veRAM positions were massive compared with the positions of users who had bought or farmed with their own funds. Including those partner positions would have meant allocating a huge share of the airdrop to them, and we explicitly communicated that the protocol couldn’t accommodate that. We chose to prioritize active users. Partner NFTs were excluded under the eligibility criteria we had already announced (many times). The airdrop used a whitelist based on those criteria Inverse wasn’t blacklisted or manually stopped. Also for reference partner NFTs were designated contract-side, and reverts on any transfers (which prevented quite a bit of people trying to abuse) so it was universal for partners. I have the receipts and am happy to share them. You can also read the conversation in the YAMs general chat. I have a lot of respect for you, and I hope this helps explain our perspective.
