[Arthur Hayes: FLOP Tokenomics Expected to Be Announced Next Week, White Paper Still in Progress] BlockBeats News, August 19 — Arthur Hayes stated in a post that the FLOP white paper has not yet been released because the team is still communicating with relevant stakeholders to ensure the final plan is robust in terms of technical design and tokenomics. The team chose to announce FLOP in advance to gather more feedback. Starting next week, simple but informative charts introducing FLOP's tokenomics design are expected to be released gradually. Previously reported, Arthur Hayes announced he would end his retirement and "come out of retirement" to lead Flop Labs and launch the FLOP token. He stated that FLOP will serve as "food for AI Agents," and the project will not conduct a presale or involve VCs, adopting a 100% fair distribution model aimed at creating the currency for the Agentic Economy. A large-scale airdrop is expected in Q4 2026, with the genesis block to be launched in Q1 2027. [Original Link]
