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.

Robinhood Lists CZ Backed ASTER and XPL, Prices Jump

Robinhood Lists CZ Backed ASTER and XPL, Prices Jump

The post Robinhood Lists CZ Backed ASTER and XPL, Prices Jump appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto exchange Robinhood has listed Aster (ASTER) and Plasma (XPL) for spot trading, sparking a rise in their prices. This comes amid a crypto market downturn, which caused a drop to new lows. Robinhood Lists ASTER and XPL For Spot Trading Robinhood data shows that both tokens are now trading on the exchange and available for spot trading for its U.S. customers. The exchange also just listed VIRTUAL, the native token of Virtuals Protocol. The Robinhood listing quickly sparked a price rise for Aster and XPL. TradingView data shows that the former quickly surged above $1.3 from its intraday lows while XPL briefly broke above $0.5 before retracing. Source: TradingView; Aster Daily Chart XPL retraced below $0.5 as the Bitcoin price fell below $110,000, while ASTER also pulled back after rising to $1.36. However, this listing marks a positive for both tokens, boosting their visibility. ASTER becomes only the second decentralized exchange (DEX) token to be listed on Robinhood after Uniswap (UNI). On the other hand, XPL, which just went live last month, has now secured listings on almost all the top crypto exchanges. The timing also proves timely for both tokens. ASTER faced internal issues last week with the Aster airdrop allocation, though this has been rectified, with claims going live earlier this week. Meanwhile, XPL initially surged when Plasma’s mainnet beta went live, but faced significant selling pressure, dropping below $1, and has since continued to decline to new lows. Drop In DEX Volume Amid the Robinhood listing, DeFiLlama data shows that the Aster DEX has fallen behind in DEX volume, trailing Uniswap, Hyperliquid, and Pumpfun. The exchange has recorded $160 million in trading volume over the last 24 hours, ranking 18th among DEXs. However, the DEX has recorded a 7-day trading volume of $2 billion, which puts…

Whales Dump PEPE as Investors Move Into Pepenode Presale

Whales Dump PEPE as Investors Move Into Pepenode Presale

The post Whales Dump PEPE as Investors Move Into Pepenode Presale appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Pepe coin, one of the most recognizable meme coins in the cryptocurrency space, is currently navigating a difficult phase marked by sharp declines and shaken investor confidence. Following the recent liquidation events across the broader market, the token’s momentum has weakened considerably. Once boasting a market capitalization above $11 billion, it has now fallen to around $3 billion. This sharp drop was mainly fueled by large holders and smart money investors trimming their positions, reportedly offloading more than 1.5 trillion $PEPE tokens between September 26 and last Friday, a clear indication that they were anticipating a price downturn. Top 100 Pepe whale holdings over the past month. Source – Nansen Such heavy selling pressure has fueled uncertainty, prompting retail investors to de-risk and seek safety amid volatile market conditions. With major meme coins like Dogecoin and Shiba Inu also posting weekly losses, it’s clear that the entire meme coin sector is enduring a widespread cooldown rather than an isolated correction. Historical data shows that Pepe has experienced major rallies during specific “meme seasons,” such as in February and December of 2024, where it recorded 10x and 3x surges respectively. However, the current market lacks the same euphoric retail participation and liquidity inflows that previously drove those gains. This article discusses the Pepe price prediction and Pepenode presale insights shared by crypto analyst and trader Jacob Crypto Bury, whose full analysis is available in the video below or on his YouTube channel. Pepe Price Prediction From a technical standpoint, Pepe coin’s price structure reflects a market struggling to regain momentum. The token has declined over 34% in the past month, with analysts observing consistent rejection around key resistance zones, particularly near the $0.00000120 level. If the price continues to fail in holding this region, further downside pressure could emerge, leading to…

Monad Airdrop Portal Opens as Token Launch Nears

Monad Airdrop Portal Opens as Token Launch Nears

The post Monad Airdrop Portal Opens as Token Launch Nears appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Welcome to The Protocol, CoinDesk’s weekly wrap of the most important stories in cryptocurrency tech development. I’m Margaux Nijkerk, a reporter at CoinDesk. In this issue: Monad Opens Airdrop Portal Ahead of Token Launch Ethereum’s Fusaka Rolls Out on Sepolia; Hoodi Testnet Up Next Monero Releases Privacy Boost Against Sneaky Network Nodes Ethereum Foundation Expands Privacy Push With Dedicated Research Cluster Network News MONAD AIRDROP COMES CLOSER AS PORTAL OPENS: Monad is gearing up for one of the most anticipated token launches of the year. The Layer-1 blockchain project has opened its MON airdrop portal, inviting eligible users to check their status ahead of the official token distribution. While the airdrop itself hasn’t gone live yet, the Monad Foundation said that users can now verify eligibility and connect their wallets, with the window remaining open until Nov. 3, 2025. “There is NO incentive to claiming really fast, so take your time. Triple check everything,” said Keone Hon, the co-founder of Monad, on X. The Monad Foundation shared in a blog post that it will target around 5,500 core community members and 225,000 broader crypto users, rewarding those who’ve helped grow the Monad ecosystem. Distribution will be done through a multi-track system spanning five categories: Monad Community, Onchain Users, Crypto Community, Crypto Contributors & Curious and Monad Builders. Those who qualify across multiple tracks can stack their allocations, giving more weight to active participants. The team also said it will be combining on-chain activity data (such as DEX volume and NFT ownership) with off-chain verification through platforms like Twitter, Discord and Telegram. The airdrop marks a step toward Monad’s upcoming mainnet launch, though the details of when that will happen and the number of tokens allocated towards these communities are still unknown. — Margaux Nijkerk Read more.
