On July 17, Aethir announced the suspension of the $50 million token exchange plan previously agreed with io.net. The Aethir Foundation decided to launch the Aethir Community Rewards Program to distribute $50 million worth of ATH tokens originally allocated for exchange to loyal and active participants in the Aethir network to recognize the valuable contributions of the Aethir community and further motivate people to continue to participate in the Aethir ecosystem.
