Airdrop

Share

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.

Regulators flag stablecoin risks, banks seek stablecoin benefits

Regulators flag stablecoin risks, banks seek stablecoin benefits

The post Regulators flag stablecoin risks, banks seek stablecoin benefits appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Homepage > News > Business > Regulators flag stablecoin risks, banks seek stablecoin benefits International financial regulatory bodies continue to flag the potential risks and rewards of stablecoins, but a growing number of banks and traditional financial institutions want an invite to this party. A new ‘Understanding Stablecoins’ report by the IMF’s Monetary and Capital Markets Department cites a recent Visa (NASDAQ: V) study that found “approximately 80% of stablecoin transactions are conducted by bots and automated systems for arbitrage and rebalancing.” However, the IMF says stablecoins also show great promise in enabling faster/cheaper payments, both for cross-border remittances as well as everyday retail purchases by consumers in emerging markets. The report also flagged the risks of wider stablecoin adoption, including currency substitution in countries with unstable fiat currencies and the resulting impact on a central bank’s “ability to control its monetary policy and serve as lender of last resort.” Stablecoins could also allow users to circumvent capital controls and “undermine financial integrity” by facilitating illicit purposes like money laundering and terrorist financing. And of course, there’s the ever-present risk of stablecoins slipping their 1:1 peg with whatever fiat currency they represent following a ‘bank run’ that forces an issuer to swiftly liquidate (potentially at a loss) their reserve assets. The IMF signaled the need for global cooperation to help “mitigate operational, financial integrity, legal, and macrofinancial risks.” But differing legal/regulatory frameworks in major financial markets “may create regulatory arbitrage opportunities that could affect the overall effectiveness of the regulations.” Another potential limiting regulatory factor is stablecoins “held through unregulated entities, including unhosted wallets.” Among the IMF’s more intriguing recommendations are that “crypto assets should not be granted official currency or legal tender status,” thereby preserving individuals/entities’ right to refuse payments in stablecoins. Risky business Last month, Andrew Bailey, chair…

OKX Set to Airdrop Tokens to ADA, BTC, SOL, and XRP Holders

The post OKX Set to Airdrop Tokens to ADA, BTC, SOL, and XRP Holders appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The NIGHT token is about to go live with major exchanges readying coordinated airdrops for millions of users across top crypto networks. OKX has confirmed its participation, joining Binance and Kraken in supporting the initial rollout of Midnight’s native coin. OKX Confirms Support for NIGHT Token Airdrops The exchange officially declared in a release that it would distribute the Midnight’s NIGHT token to users who hold eligible assets during the official snapshot period. They include ADA, BTC, ETH, SOL, XRP, BNB, AVAX, and BAT. It was stressed during the exchange that access to airdrop will vary depending on jurisdiction. Also, NIGHT cannot be distributed in all of them due to regulatory limitations. OKX explained that the balance of each token shall be calculated separately and needs to be fully deposited before the snapshot to be counted toward allocation. The token will be distributed to eligible users who hold the supported assets through a tiered distribution model. ADA holders will receive 50% of the airdrop pool, the largest share. BTC holders will get 20%. 30% of the airdrop pool will go to holders of ETH, SOL, XRP, BNB, AVAX, and BAT. This plan aims to reward participation across different blockchain networks. OKX will also start trading the token soon after the distribution begins. This comes after Binance said it will list the NIGHT token on December 9. Users who qualify can claim their allocation after trading begins. Kraken announced that it will also list the new token.

Hacken Releases MEXC’s Audit, Confirms Full Asset Backing and Strengthened Transparency Standards

Hacken Releases MEXC’s Audit, Confirms Full Asset Backing and Strengthened Transparency Standards

The post Hacken Releases MEXC’s Audit, Confirms Full Asset Backing and Strengthened Transparency Standards appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. VICTORIA, Seychelles, December 9, 2025 — MEXC, the fastest-growing global cryptocurrency exchange, redefining a user-first approach to digital assets through true zero-fee trading, has published its latest independent Proof of Reserves (PoR) report conducted by blockchain security and audit firm Hacken. MEXC continues to safeguard core assets while providing a fully auditable view of user balances, reinforcing our unwavering commitment to 100% fully backed user fund safety. The report, completed on November 26, 2025, confirms that MEXC holds sufficient on-chain assets to fully cover all user liabilities, with coverage ratios for major assets — including BTC, ETH, USDT, and USDC — consistently exceeding 100%. According to the audit, Hacken conducted a comprehensive evaluation of MEXC’s reserves using industry-standard methodologies, including Proof of Liabilities, Proof of Ownership, reserve sufficiency calculations, and Merkle-tree verification. MEXC’s Proof of Reserves framework aggregates anonymized user balances and maps them to publicly verifiable on-chain holdings, enabling independent validation of solvency without compromising personal information. The auditor verified that MEXC maintains operational control over all wallets included in the assessment and confirmed that user balances are fully backed based on the assets reviewed. The examination covered a broad range of networks, with reserve wallets identified across Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, TON, Tron, BNB Chain, Arbitrum, Optimism, Avalanche-C, Base, Polygon, Aptos and Sui. The report also provides detailed breakdowns of wallet addresses, balances, and asset distribution. The final reserve ratio table confirms that each major asset class is supported by reserves exceeding its liabilities. Hacken reviewed outbound transactions from selected addresses as part of its Proof of Ownership procedures and validated the integrity of the Merkle-tree structure used to compute user liabilities. These transparency efforts are underpinned by MEXC’s continuously refreshed Proof of Reserves framework and an independently maintained protection system, giving users and counterparties verified confirmation of reserve…
