6 months later,
@LineaBuild's Exponent campaign has officially concluded.
Here’s the reality:
•
$USD prize values multiple extras advertised publicly for 3 months
• After Exponent ended, Linea privately revealed to participants rewards would actually be paid in
$LINEA tokens using an internally decided 14-day TWAP calculation
• Linea intentionally deceived builders and token holders to avoid FUD (We have receipts)
• Final distributions took 2.5 months
• Most builders ultimately received ~50% of the publicly advertised USD value by the time tokens were distributed
• All extra prizes/support initiatives, AMAs, and public announcements promoted during the campaign were later removed, changed, or remain unfulfilled

Throughout this process, builders have worked patiently together with the core
@Consensys /
@LineaBuild team for clarity and resolution before speaking publicly.
We are still waiting on full clarity.
Several Exponent winners will host an open AMA/X Space in the next couple of days to discuss:
• The full Exponent timeline
• Builder experiences during the campaign
• Communication/process/exponent rules/lack of clarity/
@sumsub exploit
• The impact on builders and their communities
• Whether Exponent was ultimately sustainable or even beneficial for builders
We’ll also share screenshots, timelines, and documented communications so everyone can form their own conclusions based on the facts.
