The ARO token is expected to have its TGE (Token Generation Event) in Q2 2026. This early entry into the node-based airdrop is even more useful because people who adopt the testnet stage will have priority, rewards, and a position before the wider market adoption.
This is a decentralized edge cloud platform that is built to connect centralized cloud systems with AI-driven applications. RO will enable users to earn money by using idle internet bandwidth, and developers to have access to high-performance infrastructure by making a globally distributed networks of nodes.
The crypto airdrop and bounty program is an early incentive to gain rewards, reputation, and a decentralized edge cloud ecosystem. The first movers will receive the greatest rewards before the mainnet and token issuance in 2026.
