Why Is the Web3 Membership Economy Worth Watching?

Traditional membership programs often suffer from weak user engagement and fragmented data. Consumers pay annual fees but rarely use the services. Merchants struggle to measure the true value of “effective visits.” Web3 addresses these pain points by leveraging on-chain records, smart contracts, and encrypted identities—enabling transparent, behavior-based tracking and billing between merchants and users.

Belong (LONG) exemplifies this trend. Rather than creating a purely digital points system, it transforms real-world activities—visits, check-ins, and purchases—into verifiable on-chain actions, distributing rewards and benefits accordingly.

Belong (LONG): Leading the Connection Between “On-Chain Membership & Physical Environments”

Belong’s core mission is to build an offline, pay-per-use membership system. When users visit physical venues—cafés, gyms, art exhibits, concerts—they can check in via the Belong App or a partner terminal. This triggers an on-chain log and delivers value to venues, brands, and users:

• For merchants: Pay only for actual visits, allowing for more targeted marketing spend.
• For users: Earn LONG tokens or NFT rewards for each check-in.
• For brands: Analyze authentic traffic and behavioral data, then reward users accordingly.
• For the ecosystem: LONG serves as the core currency for transparent settlement.

Belong has already announced pilot partnerships with merchants in Tokyo, Seoul, and Singapore.

Belong CheckIn: How Does the Offline Pay-Per-Use System Operate?

The Belong CheckIn system is built on the principle that presence equals value. Upon arrival at a partner location, users verify their identity via QR code, NFC, or GPS. The system records a valid visit, charges the merchant a small amount of LONG tokens per established rules, and allocates a portion of those tokens to the user.

Three key innovations:

• Authentic presence verification—to prevent fraudulent check-ins.
• Encrypted identity reputation—users build reputation without exposing personal data.
• Multi-chain compatibility—supporting cross-ecosystem use on Ethereum, Base, and Arbitrum.

This positions Belong CheckIn as an early model for a “Web3 offline incentive system.”

November 6 Airdrop and LONG Token Mechanism

Belong (LONG) will launch an airdrop on Binance Alpha starting November 6, 2025 (UTC), with simultaneous listing on Gate’s spot trading section. To trade, visit: https://www.gate.com/trade/LONG_USDT

Tokenomics are as follows:

• Total supply: 750 million LONG.
• Inflation mechanism: A portion allocated to reward users and merchants for CheckIns.
• Burn mechanism: 50% of platform fees are regularly repurchased and burned.
• Use cases: Venue service payments, membership cards, reward distribution, and governance voting.

This dual mechanism (reward and burn) model helps maintain LONG’s long-term deflationary profile and utility.

Integrating with RWA Trends: Creating a Closed Incentive Loop from Online to Offline

RWA (Real-World Assets) is set to be a core theme in crypto for 2025. What makes Belong unique is its focus on “tokenizing behavior” rather than assets—treating users’ real-world actions as on-chain assets.

Every check-in, every offline transaction, and every LONG payment becomes a traceable on-chain asset representing behavior. This approach gives Belong greater real-world relevance than traditional RWA platforms and makes it easier to engage brands, merchants, and communities.

How Should Investors and Users Get Involved?

General users:

• Follow the official X account and Telegram channel before November 6, and prepare Alpha Points or meet the airdrop eligibility requirements.
• After applying for the airdrop, check distribution results on Gate or Binance Alpha.
• To get involved more deeply, join the CheckIn test activities and experience the offline membership features.

Investors:

• Monitor LONG’s initial trading volume and unlock schedule. Observe price dynamics after the airdrop.
• If the project continues to expand venue partnerships, authentic transaction volume will drive LONG’s utility demand.
• Be mindful of short-term volatility and liquidity risks. Allocate positions prudently.

Looking Ahead: From CheckIn to Global Expansion

The Belong team aims to enter the North American and European markets by 2026, building a global Web3 offline check-in ecosystem. The team’s future plans include:

• Partnering with chain brands to launch NFT membership cards.
• Introducing “in-store missions” where points are redeemable for physical goods.
• Opening API access for third-party Web3 applications to integrate CheckIn data.

Success would position Belong as a key bridge between the virtual and real worlds.

Summary

Belong (LONG) delivers a clear value proposition: every physical visit can be recorded on-chain, monetized, and made traceable. As the November 6 airdrop unfolds, the Belong CheckIn system offers Web3 users a new paradigm—enabling users to create value through real-world actions, beyond online participation. Still, users should remain prudent; airdrops present both opportunity and risk. Focus on tangible adoption and ecosystem growth to gauge LONG’s long-term potential.
