<p>Cashing out your cheques once a day should be sufficient. Cashing out cheques more frequently puts stress on the Goerli blockchain and is not advised.</p>

<p>This one is simple. You have to install and run your Bee node. You will need a working, well-connected, and data-rich Bee node to increase your chances of getting the BZZ. The more you contribute to the network, the more chances you have to get BZZ.</p>

<p>The nodes that will be eligible for BZZ tokens are those that have proven exchanged bandwidth with what we call trusted “Queen Bee nodes”.</p>

<p>There are going to be exactly 35 queen nodes in the network and nobody (not even the team members) will know which those nodes are. That will be decided at the very end of the airdrop.</p>

<p>The proof of data exchange between your node and queen node is the value of the cheques you cashed from the queen node (qBZZ).</p>

<p>At the end of the airdrop, we will simply run a script and collect all the value of the cheques originating from queen nodes which are cashed out. The more cashed out qBZZ cheques you received, the more BZZ tokens you will receive. It’s not the number of cheques, but the gBZZ value in the exchange. You only need to cash out cheques every once (we advice doing cashouts on a regular basis, like once a week) in a while and make sure you cash out all of them just before the airdrop ends and we switch to mainnet.</p>

<p>We are handing out exactly 1,000,000 BZZ tokens. The value of qBZZ is not yet determined, as this depends on the network traffic. The total value of BZZ tokens you will get depends on the share of the qBZZ you received over the total number of qBZZ handed out.</p>

<p>For the airdrop, the value of cashed-out cheques matter, not the number of cashed-out cheques.</p>

<p><strong>Example: </strong><br>At the end of the airdrop, 500k worth of qBZZ cheques were collected from all the nodes in the network. In this case, one qBZZ token is worth: 1M BZZ divided by 500k = 2 BZZ tokens per qBZZ token.</p>
160
141
<p>So, if your node collected 50 worth of qBZZ cheques, you would receive 50 x 2BZZ = 100 BZZ tokens. If you ran 3 nodes and they collected 50 worth of qBZZ cheques each, then that is 300 BZZ from the airdrop.</p>

<p>This is important — as the airdrop concludes, you will need to cash out your qBZZ cheques. Without this, you will not receive your BZZ tokens once we hit mainnet.</p>

<p>You can use the <ahref="https://gist.github.com/ralph-pichler/3b5ccd7a5c5cd0500e6428752b37e975">cashout script by Ralph Pichler </a>; he is a developer working with us.</p>

<p>This script is from the documentation and this is what we recommend to use for now.</p>

<p>If you are using any script that is not published by us, be sure that it comes from a trusted source.</p>

<p>We’re still deciding on the exact mechanism. There will be very clear communication about this.</p>

<p>For now, just make sure you have the private key to your nodes and cash out your cheques on a regular basis, like once a week.</p>
