How it Works

Get 1 ANT for each vote you cast.

Voting is now closed

What you gain

Vote-to-Get

Vote with ANT: 

Votes are purchased using with ANT.

The price depends on the current popularity of an app, and how it compares to others. An app with many votes will cost more than 1 ANT, while those with fewer votes will cost far less.

Get back ANT:  If you vote for an app that gets through to the final 12, you’ll get 1 ANT for each vote you cast. You’ll be paid to your wallet after Impossible Futures concludes in August 2025.

Your original vote cost isn't refunded. Likewise, if you vote for a project that doesn’t go through to the final 12, then you don’t get anything back.

So choose wisely, and vote for the projects your believe in!

Back-to-Earn

Share Awards:
$40K in USDC split between backers of award winning apps, based on how much you locked. Paid when the winners are announced on August 13th, 2025.

Split 1.5M ANT Prize Pool:
A large rewards pool of up to 1.5M ANT will be distributed proportionally amongst backers, based on pledges across all apps that go live on the live Autonomi Network.

Get your ANT back:


After 12 months your ANT is unlocked, together with your split of the prize pool.
