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.

Meteora Details Tokenomics for Upcoming MET Launch

Meteora Details Tokenomics for Upcoming MET Launch

The post Meteora Details Tokenomics for Upcoming MET Launch appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Part of the project’s long-planned post-FTX comeback, the token will have 20% of its circulating supply allocated to former Mercurial stakeholders. Meteora, a decentralized liquidity protocol, has unveiled tokenomics for its upcoming token, MET. The MET token generation event (TGE), scheduled for Oct. 23, is part of the team’s broader “Phoenix Rising Plan,” marking what it describes as a clean start after its rebrand from Mercurial, a long-planned move made to distance itself from the collapse of FTX. In a blog post on Tuesday, Oct. 7, the Meteora team unveiled its so-called “Liquidity Generation Event,” which turns all early supporters and partners into liquid holders of the platform’s token. In the disclosed tokenomics, the team noted that there are no vesting periods or gradual unlocks for holders, meaning all circulating tokens will be liquid at launch. MET token allocation. Source: Meteora Almost half of MET’s total supply, around 48%, will be circulating at launch. Out of that, about 20% will go to holders of the old Mercurial token (MER), 15% will go to Meteora users through a liquidity incentive program, and smaller shares of 3% each will be set aside for Jupiter stakers, launchpads, and market makers, along with 2% for off-chain contributors and another 2% for the M3M3 community. The remaining 52% of tokens will be non-circulating, with 34% kept in the Meteora ecosystem reserve and 18% allocated to the team, with both allocations vested over six years. No Token Sale at Launch Meteora is also introducing the Liquidity Distributor, which it describes as a “new way to distribute airdrops.” As the team explained, around 10% of the circulating supply will be distributed as liquidity positions instead of standard airdrops, letting holders earn trading fees while providing liquidity.

MetaMask Taps Hyperliquid as Airdrop Plan Heats Up

MetaMask Taps Hyperliquid as Airdrop Plan Heats Up

Popular non-custodial wallet provider MetaMask has revealed the launch of a dedicated perpetual futures (perps) section within its ecosystem. The latest debut was made possible through a collaboration with the leading decentralized perpetual exchange, Hyperliquid. The wallet provider added that its airdrop, dubbed “MetaMask Rewards,” will commence by the end of the month. MetaMask Explores Crypto Perps MetaMask’s decision to launch an in-app perpetual trading experience is part of its effort to bring streamlined, decentralized access to the crypto perpetual market. MetaMask explained that its mobile app will introduce enhanced speed, reduced latency, zero swap fees, and “one-click funding from any EVM chain.” However, the new feature will be available in limited regions. For most of this year, decentralized exchanges offering crypto perps have captured significant attention in the industry. After Hyperliquid’s massive growth since late last year, other projects have joined the bandwagon. For example, BNB Chain-based Aster recently overtook Hyperliquid by various metrics. According to DefiLlama, the crypto perps market currently holds a 24-hour traded volume of over $40.7 billion. However, this figure does not include Aster as the analytics platform recently delisted it. Aside from MetaMask, other platforms, such as Infinex, have also embraced crypto perps into their ecosystems. MetaMask’s Incoming Airdrop MetaMask’s latest move to explore the crypto perps market is one of the various ways it is bringing utility to its users. Earlier this week, MetaMask revealed plans to debut a $30 million rewards program tied to an upcoming native cryptocurrency. The airdrop program is open to users in limited countries. To participate, users must swap tokens, trade perps on the digital wallet, refer others, and trade the mUSD stablecoin to earn points. According to the announcement, these add a social layer to the program. Later on, points will be claimable by spending with the MetaMask Card. The wallet provider added in its announcement that it would delve into the predictions market by partnering with Polymarket. This way, MetaMask users can trade in various markets, including sports, politics, and cryptocurrency. According to MetaMask’s global product lead, Gal Eldar, these new products add up to “create the reasons users will never want to leave” the non-custodial wallet.

MetaMask Launches Hyperliquid Perpetuals In-App, Plans To Integrate Polymarket

MetaMask Launches Hyperliquid Perpetuals In-App, Plans To Integrate Polymarket

The post MetaMask Launches Hyperliquid Perpetuals In-App, Plans To Integrate Polymarket appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. MetaMask has officially introduced perpetuals trading on its platform, powered by Hyperliquid. Meanwhile, the crypto wallet confirmed plans to launch its token and also integrate the crypto predictions platform Polymarket later this year. MetaMask Rolls Out Hyperliquid Perpetuals The crypto wallet announced in a press release that Hyperliquid-powered perpetuals futures are now live on its platform. With this, users will be able to trade perps on the application, with funding from any EVM chain. This follows an earlier CoinGape report from last month, which stated that MetaMask was planning to launch these Hyperliquid perpetuals in-wallet as part of its expansion plans. This comes as the crypto market continues to witness historic decentralized exchange (DEX) volume, recently topping $1 trillion in monthly volume for the first time ever. The crypto wallet joins the likes of other wallet providers such as Phantom, which have already integrated perpetuals trading in-app, through the Hyperliquid platform. Meanwhile, the wallet provider also confirmed its rewards program, which will go live at the end of this month. CoinGape has previously reported that MetaMask was preparing to launch a new reward points system for on-chain activities, including swaps and bridging, which it has now confirmed. The crypto wallet also hinted that the rewards system will be integrated with the upcoming launch of its MetaMask token. As such, there is the likelihood that the rewards system will play a major role in the token airdrop. There are also plans to distribute over $30 million in LINEA token allocations as part of the rewards program. Plans To Integrate Polymarket MetaMask also revealed plans to expand into the prediction markets with an exclusive Polymarket integration. The crypto wallet will enable its users to participate in on-chain prediction markets directly within its platform. This comes as prediction markets, such as Polymarket and…

Largest US Union Federation Opposes Crypto Bill, Says It Exposes Workers’ Retirement Funds to Risk

Largest US Union Federation Opposes Crypto Bill, Says It Exposes Workers’ Retirement Funds to Risk

The AFL-CIO has urged the Senate Banking Committee to oppose the Responsible Financial Innovation Act, warning that the legislation would expose workers’ retirement funds to crypto volatility while increasing systemic financial risk. In an October 7 letter to Chairman Scott and Ranking Member Warren, AFL-CIO Director of Government Affairs Jody Calemine stated the bill would greenlight retirement plans like 401(k)s and pensions to hold risky crypto assets rather than insulating workers from instability. The union federation represents millions of American workers whose retirement security could be affected by the legislation. The opposition comes as President Trump signed an executive order in August allowing American workers to add alternative assets, including cryptocurrency, to their $12.5 trillion 401(k) portfolios. More than 90 million Americans participate in employer-sponsored defined-contribution plans, with total US retirement assets valued at $43.4 trillion as of March 31, 2025. House Financial Services Committee Chairman French Hill and Subcommittee Chairman Ann Wagner urged SEC Chair Paul Atkins on September 22 to implement the directive swiftly by recognizing FINRA-certified professionals as accredited investors. Union Warns Bill Creates Shadow Markets and Exposes FDIC to Risk The AFL-CIO claimed to have identified two immediate systemic risks in the legislation. First, the proposal would expand the ability of FDIC-backed banks and bank holding companies to hold and trade crypto assets directly, rather than only on behalf of clients. This, according to them, would expose banks to a heightened risk of losses and failures, while also putting the FDIC’s taxpayer-backed Deposit Insurance Fund at greater risk. Second, the bill codifies the tokenization of securities and assets, allowing private companies to create shadow public stock outside SEC oversight. Calemine warned these blockchain-based shadow stocks, notionally tied to traditional public stock but trading independently, would create new risks for both shadow stockholders and public stockholders who did not opt into unregulated markets. The union expressed deep concern about the potential impact on the stability of traditional financial markets and institutions, comparing the risks to unregulated derivatives markets that contributed to the 2008 financial crisis.Source: BIS The legislation substantially weakens federal and state enforcement tools to police fraud and conflicts of interest, according to the AFL-CIO. The bill creates avenues for securities issuers to evade SEC regulation through tokenization, reduces public disclosure requirements, and preempts state-level antifraud, securities, and consumer protection laws. While most pensions currently do not carry crypto assets due to associated risks, Calemine claimed the bill provides a “facade of regulation” that may make crypto more mainstream in portfolios, allowing the proliferation of assets investors will wrongly perceive as safe. Industry Pushes Forward as Regulators Signal Friendlier Stance The draft Responsible Financial Innovation Act, released in July by Senate Banking Chair Tim Scott alongside Senators Cynthia Lummis, Bill Hagerty, and Bernie Moreno, proposes explicit recognition that digital assets referred to as “ancillary assets” are not inherently securities. The legislation attempts to resolve jurisdictional tension between the SEC and the CFTC, with most digital assets regulated as commodities under the CFTC, while the SEC retains oversight of investment contracts and investor protection. A revised September 7 draft introduced protections for DeFi developers and emerging blockchain sectors, such as DePINs, proposing the formation of a Joint Advisory Committee on Digital Assets comprising SEC and CFTC members. Developers contributing to decentralized protocols, validators, liquidity providers, and wallet builders would not automatically fall under traditional financial regulations if protocols aren’t centrally controlled. Airdrops, staking rewards, and liquid-staking outputs are defined as “gratuitous distributions” rather than securities offerings. Last month, SEC Chair Paul Atkins announced the agency would end “regulation by enforcement,” giving firms preliminary notices of technical violations and up to six months to address issues before enforcement is considered. Since taking office in April, Atkins has dropped several high-profile cases inherited from Gary Gensler’s tenure and launched a Crypto Task Force. He rejected the broad classification of cryptocurrencies as securities, showing openness to tokenized stocks and bonds that mirror existing instruments. Little before then, CFTC Acting Chair Caroline D. Pham outlined on September 8 a cross-border framework allowing foreign crypto exchanges to operate under U.S. regulatory frameworks, potentially widening market access for American traders. Pham noted many American crypto firms moved operations abroad, citing a lack of clear rules, with jurisdictions in Europe, Asia, and the Middle East developing digital asset frameworks that drew companies away
