Every point issued after you earn yours dilutes your share of the same pool. A programme emitting steadily is worth less per point tomorrow than today, all else equal.

Extended: docs now say weekly distributions 'conclude no later than the end of Q4 2026' (was Q3), and reporting on the team's airdrop announcement says distributions continue until the VAR TGE, targeted for Q4 2026, at ~150,000 points/week. That announcement (as reported by KuCoin, Incrypted, ChainCatcher) sets the genesis airdrop at 32% of VAR supply, pro rata to points, 100% unlocked at TGE; team and investors 50% (12-month lock, 3-year release), ecosystem reserve 18%. The earlier '50% to community' aggregator figure was the community total, not the points airdrop. 3,000,000 points went out retroactively at launch for activity through 2025-12-11; no running total is published, so points_outstanding stays null. UPDATE 2026-10-20: points_outstanding is now an estimate rather than null: the 3,000,000 retroactive drop plus 43 weekly distributions of 150,000 since 2025-12-17 (6.45M), i.e. ~9.45M as of 2026-10-20. Third-party trackers (xvariational.xyz, airdrop guides) put the total at ~9-10M now and ~10.5M by TGE, which agrees. Confidence stays 'estimated' because Variational publishes no running total.
