Airdrop

An Airdrop is a distribution of free tokens to a community, typically used as a marketing tool or a reward for early protocol adopters and testers. In 2026, the "points-to-airdrop" model has matured into merit-based incentive programs that utilize Sybil-resistance and Proof-of-Humanity to filter out bots. Airdrops remain a primary method for decentralized governance (DAO) bootstrapping. Follow this tag for the latest on retroactive rewards, eligibility criteria, and how to participate in the most anticipated token distributions in the ecosystem.

aPriori Dismisses Insider Airdrop, Leaving Key Questions Unanswered

The post aPriori Dismisses Insider Airdrop, Leaving Key Questions Unanswered appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Web3 startup aPriori said Friday that suspicious activity tied to its recent airdrop was not connected to its team, following investor concerns that a single entity claimed an outsized portion of the token distribution. A mysterious entity claimed about 60% of the recent aPriori (APR) token airdrop across 14,000 interconnected cryptocurrency wallets, according to blockchain analytics platform Bubblemaps. The pattern resembles a Sybil-style farming operation, where one actor uses multiple wallets to maximize rewards. APriori lowered eligibility requirements for its Monad Mainnet airdrop in an effort to reward “genuine users,” but said Friday it found “no evidence that anyone on the contributing team or from the foundation has claimed the airdrop.” Cointelegraph was unable to verify who controls the wallet cluster and contacted aPriori for more details. Source: aPriori Bubblemaps CEO Nick Vaiman said the project’s initial response appeared “dismissive,” adding that aPriori suggested a leak might have enabled someone to farm the airdrop. “They’re saying there was a leak and someone used that info,” Vaiman told Cointelegraph. APriori is a San Francisco-based company founded in 2023. In August, aPriori raised $20 million to expand its trading infrastructure platform, with participation from Pantera Capital, HashKey Capital and Primitive Ventures among others, reaching $30 million in total funding.

The startup has also increased its unlock on its airdrop allocation from 12% to 15%, meaning that users can claim 3% more of their airdrop allocation when the Monad mainnet goes live on Nov. 24 The remaining 85% will be claimable six months after the mainnet launch, according to aPriori’s updated…

Ethena Labs has partnered with Nunchi to offer Ethena rewards to nHYPE stakers.

PANews reported on November 22 that Ethena Labs announced on the X platform that it has partnered with Nunchi, a Hyperliquid HIP-3 deployer. Nunchi is building perpetual contracts based on yield markets, allowing users to comment on RWA rates, dividends, ETH staking rewards, and more. A portion of Nunchi's total revenue will benefit the Ethena ecosystem; furthermore, if Nunchi issues tokens, it will airdrop them to the ecosystem. All initial markets on Nunchi will use USDe as the quoted asset. Users trading on Nunchi can earn returns through USDe margin, thus offsetting transaction fees and funding rates. Users staking Nunchi HYPE LST nHYPE will be eligible for 20x Ethena rewards to help support the exchange's launch.

Bear Market Task: A Comprehensive Guide to Early Interactions in Circle Arc

Bear Market Task: A Comprehensive Guide to Early Interactions in Circle Arc

Author: KarenZ, Foresight News Three weeks have passed since Circle's Layer 1 blockchain, Arc, launched its testnet. Unlike many Layer 2 blockchains, Arc positions itself as an "economic operating system for the internet." Its biggest advantage lies in directly using USDC as the gas fee, meaning that users and institutions can conduct on-chain operations without holding ETH or other volatile tokens. In addition, Arc is EVM compatible, offers configurable privacy options to support compliance requirements, and integrates directly with Circle's full-stack platform, making it suitable for applications such as lending, capital markets, foreign exchange, and payments. More importantly, as an EVM-compatible chain built by stablecoin giant Circle, Arc possesses two core advantages: on the one hand, it is backed by the TradFi resources accumulated by Circle, and on the other hand, it relies on the massive liquidity pool of USDC. This makes it highly likely to become a core platform for the implementation of RWA (Real-World Asset) and enterprise-level applications in the future, giving it a first-mover advantage in the field of institutional blockchain applications. On the day of its Q3 earnings release, Circle also revealed that it is exploring the possibility of launching a native token on Arc. Arc is currently in its public testnet phase, a window of opportunity for users to experience features early and explore potential ecosystem opportunities. It's important to note that testnet interaction does not necessarily guarantee subsequent rewards; users are advised to participate with a learning and experiential mindset and to view airdrop opportunities rationally. The following are the eight interactive steps, covering basic configuration, contract deployment, token exchange, and NFT minting. Arc Interaction Guide 1. Add the Arc testnet network: https://testnet.arcscan.app/ 2. Claim your USDC or EURC test tokens: https://faucet.circle.com/ 3. Locate the Arc testnet on OnChainGM, send the GM interaction and deploy the contract. Both operations require wallet signing: https://onchaingm.com/deploy 4. Send GM on zkCodex to deploy simple contracts, token contracts, NFT contracts, and mint commemorative NFTs: https://zkcodex.com/onchain/gm 5. Deploy the NFT series on OmniHub (requires uploading images, confirming names, etc.): https://omnihub.xyz/create 6. Exchange USDC for WUSDC on the Arc testnet on Curve and add USDC/EURC liquidity: https://www.curve.finance/dex/arc/swap/ 7. After following the official Twitter account and joining the project's Discord server on ArcFlow Finance, a native DEX in the Arc ecosystem, mint the Genesis Pass NFT. 8. Register a domain name with InfinityName: https://infinityname.com/ It's worth noting that Arc previously announced the first batch of 11 projects built on its public testnet, including: ZKP2P, a P2P fiat currency channel project powered by ZK proofs; Sequence, a general-purpose crypto trading platform; Superface, an interconnected platform for smart agent solutions; Blockradar, a stablecoin wallet infrastructure; Copperx, a stablecoin banking service; Crossmint, a crypto API development company; Hurupay, a cross-border fund transfer and management program; Para, a wallet infrastructure; CFi, a personalized finance platform; Hinkal, a wallet based on zero-knowledge proofs; and Axelar Network, a cross-chain infrastructure. These projects will implement use cases in areas such as lending, capital markets, foreign exchange, and payments on Arc. However, the specific development progress of most projects has not yet been disclosed.

Build on Bitcoin Token Rallies on Coinbase Listing

Build on Bitcoin Token Rallies on Coinbase Listing

The post Build on Bitcoin Token Rallies on Coinbase Listing appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The Bitcoin DeFi token is up 25% from its launch price. Despite the crypto market’s woes, newly launched token BOB, from the Build on Bitcoin BTCFi project, is rallying after a Coinbase listing. BOB launched at $0.018, or a $45 million market capitalization on Nov. 20, and is up 25% from its launch price, making it one of the few tokens that are up over the last 24 hours. BOB Chart – CoinGecko Build on Bitcoin is an optimistic rollup chain focused on Bitcoin DeFi (BTCFi). BOB works with DeFi protocols to incubate and launch BTC yield products based on native BTC rather than wrapped BTC alternatives. BTC on BOB is intended to serve as a shared trust layer between traditional DeFi protocols and the Bitcoin blockchain. While the token has done well, some users have voiced concerns over the airdrop. One farmer known as Usopp said, “After having $7000 in @build_on_bob for 1 year. Got in early in May 24 and have accumulated 10M spices in S1 and S2 – I have also accumulated ~6M spices in S3. So if I am not eligible – Idk who is lmfao.” Source: https://thedefiant.io/news/blockchains/build-on-bitcoin-token-rallies-on-coinbase-listing
