A flow of resources.

Market distribution

Predominant flow of resources in market capitalism.

A transnational flow of resources. It assumes entities like producer and consumer. Intermediaries can take place in the transfer, such as commerce agent, someone who buys from the producer and sells to another commerce agent or directly to the consumer.

The transaction is an exchange, in most cases mediated by monetary currency / money.

Non-market distribution

Gifting is a non-market distribution process.

Humanitarian supplies, for example in areas affected by calamities.


Recently, in the web3 realm, we've seen the gain in popularity of airdrops, which are in essence gifts of tokens to a segment of the population. Usually, there are measures in place for the selection of individuals who can benefit and rules of access associated with the process. That is because airdrops are designed to bring a new network or application to critical mass.
