## Q1: What is AIRian ($AIR)?
**The Portal to World's Largest Running Community**
AIRian is a community project based on DePIN and Sport AI that improves the health of users around the world in a fun way. The AIR foundation aims to build the world's largest community by onboarding world-class running and marathon competition IPs that have been in progress for decades and the vast number of users participating in them into the <a href="/<a href="/<a href="/fr/web3" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">web3</a>" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_<a href="/fr/price/link-ln" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">link</a>">web3</a>" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_<a href="/fr/price/link-ln" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">link</a>">Web3</a> ecosystem and products. We are onboarding over 20 running and marathon event IPs onto Web3, starting with the Seoul International Marathon, which is one of the World’s TOP 7 Marathons that has been running for decades. The aforementioned IPs are provided by AIRian’s main exclusive partner, Dong-A Media Group, Korea’s largest media and broadcasting company.

Additionally, AIRian is a sports AI that mines users' health data to provide customized services within the ecosystem. These computing tasks use GPU power to receive fast, sophisticated data and provide personalized AI services to users. We build infrastructure by connecting various offline running and marathon events that have been held for decades with Web3 service (DePIN). The existing user database of 450,000 web2 users who have been sustainably participating in the offline running and marathon ecosystem for a long time will be migrated to AIRian's major product, RunnerX, where all event ticketing will be performed using the $AIR token.

AIRian users accumulate their own health data, share it with each other, compete with each other, and build a community. Based on this, AIRian is building a huge global web3 community by providing global online hiking, running, and marathon events. We are glad that we joined the gate community! Looking forward to more interesting milestones.
## Q2: What are AIRian's main mechanisms?
🦄 AIRian's core mechanism:
⚡️ Runner X (Beta ver): Major dApp where users can get diverse rewards through walking and running.
⚡️ AIRian: All users and runners who participate in the AIR community are called 'AIRian'.
⚡️ $AIR: Governance and utility token used by AIRian.

The Web3.0 platform RUNNER X is a decentralized dApp for the running community and serves as a space for activity and communication for global runners. RUNNER X provides three basic modes: walking, running, and marathoning. Users can record and share various data with their friends while active through this dApp. The data includes distance, time, steps taken, and calories burned. Based on this data, users can enjoy the service by competing in a ranking system.

AIRian, interestingly named (AIR + ian), represents community members. All runners active in RUNNER X are called ‘AIRian’. This creates strong bonds among runners, allowing them to create running crews, compete, and enjoy community activities. AIRian also improves the quality of “AIR” through eco-friendly activities considering the environment.

Additionally, AIRian allows runners to own an NFT that represents them. This NFT (Avatar) acts as a PFP in RUNNER X. Runners with AIRian NFT not only get more rewards when they walk, run, and run marathons, but they can also participate in various services and enjoy the benefits of AIRian's various online/offline running/marathon events. All these activities are carried out using the $AIR tokens.

$AIR is not just a utility token but also has governance features. AIRians can get tokens through walking or running activities on RUNNER X. These tokens can also be obtained from external exchanges. $AIR can be used across the AIRian ecosystem to pay for tickets for online/offline running events and marathons. Runners worldwide also use the $AIR token to create crew rooms, and AIRian receives $AIR for participating and being active in the community. This token can be used within the ecosystem or withdrawn to an external exchange.

## Q3: What achievements has the project made so far?
One of our key strengths and performances is the success of our IP and community, as evidenced by reaching over 7 million Giphy Sticker Users in a very short time. Performance on the dApp is also remarkable. Our dApp, Runner-X, has recorded a total of 120,000 downloads with 50,000 MAU (Monthly Active Users) and 5,000 DAU (Daily Active Users).

We highly focus on real-world users and real-world activities. Many runners, marathoners, and users all around the globe are joining the app and the platform (community) from the US, Korea, Japan, the Philippines, Turkey, Indonesia, India, Vietnam, etc.

Additionally, big news to share is:
-We successfully listed on gate.io last week, along with the Ape Terminal Launch Drop.
-Listed with the prominent Korean CEX, GoPax.
-We are set for an additional listing on Coins.ph, the number one exchange in the Philippines, with many other major CEXs to be listed accordingly.

## Q5: What is AIRian's roadmap?
Sure, we have multiple milestones and a roadmap. Our real agenda begins both on/offline from Q3 2024:

1.$AIR is preparing for the AIRBOMB (node) sales and AIRian avatars (NFTs) launch on SONOVA on the upcoming August 1st. This will provide a special opportunity for more users to participate in Runner-X and mine more tokens.

2.RunnerX is a platform that rewards community builders and runners for consistent exercise. AIRSPACE, which is currently scheduled to be developed, can be viewed as a platform for burning and using Air Tokens. The main features of AIRSPACE are:
  -$AIR Staking Service
  -AIRian Membership Staking Service
  -AIRian Outfit Web 3 Mall ($AIR token payment)
  -AIRBOMB minting page
  -AIRian IP NFT minting page
  
3.Development Plan for the next 3 months:
  -Currently, AIRian’s flagship platform, RunnerX, has been released as a beta version (achieved 120k+ downloads).
  -Global user acquisition is taking place, and numerous transactions are expected to occur when applied on-chain soon.
  -RunnerX service currently consists of three modes: walking, running, and marathon modes. Users will receive $AIR tokens as a reward.
  -Donga Media Group, $AIR's largest backer, owns numerous world-class running and marathon IPs, such as the Seoul International Marathon. Many people in their 20s-40s participate in these competitions. This age group is familiar with crypto. About 40k people participate in each competition, and tickets sell out quickly.
