Time: 2021–05–30
Estimated total number of airdrop: To be verified
Reason: Rari.capital is run by a group of youn developers who have done everything they can to repay funds to the users that lost out from this hack. They started with giving up the Dev fund of ~$2M.

I think the $RGT community (DAO) has shown great initiative and they would be a great addition to this DAO
