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.

Anoma launches on Ethereum with governance and token

Anoma launches on Ethereum with governance and token

The post Anoma launches on Ethereum with governance and token appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Anoma launched phase one of its mainnet on Ethereum Monday, activating its native XAN token and on-chain governance system. The release kicks off proposal submission and a new two-body governance voting structure. Any user can lock XAN to join the “voter body,” while a governance council — a multisig composed of early contributors — can also propose changes, according to Anoma co-founder Adrian Brink. “Either body can propose an upgrade, which takes at least two weeks to be passed,” Brink told Blockworks. “There’s no special body with superuser rights…The voter body can veto any proposal initiated by the council.” Real decentralization will hinge on initial distribution and turnout. Without broad float and active delegates, early governance is likely to be insider-led even if the council lacks special powers. Vesting tokens are eligible to vote. The treasury contract is deployed but not yet activated. Brink said the goal of this early governance phase is to allow the community to “conduct a proper decentralized launch.” Additional system features — including protocol adapters and third-party app support — will come online through governance decisions over time. Unlike a layer-1 blockchain, Anoma describes itself as an “intent-centric” decentralized operating system. In marketing-speak, it aims “to become Web3’s unified operating system” — running on top of L1s such as Ethereum, Bitcoin and Solana. Users express their intent — for example, a user could express an intent to swap ETH to USDC with a minimum-received threshold, a deadline, and a slippage cap — which solvers match and fulfill across chains. Execution happens on native settlement layers via “protocol adapters” deployed to each chain. Those adapters are live on testnets for Ethereum, Optimism, and Arbitrum, but are not yet available on mainnet. “The protocol adapter has one final audit that needs to be completed,” Brink said. “Then…

Vitalik Buterin just dumped these 2 cryptocurrencies

Vitalik Buterin just dumped these 2 cryptocurrencies

The post Vitalik Buterin just dumped these 2 cryptocurrencies appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Ethereum (ETH) co-founder Vitalik Buterin has once again shook the cryptocurrency market, this time by offloading large amounts of meme coins he received for free in exchange for Ethereum and stablecoins. Blockchain data reviewed by Finbold from Etherscan shows that on September 28, Buterin’s wallet, vitalik.eth, sold 150 billion PUPPIES tokens for 28.58 ETH, worth approximately $114,700 at the time of the transaction.  In a separate swap, he also unloaded 1 billion units of an ERC20 memecoin for 13,889 USDC, securing just over $13,800. Vitalik Buterin’s recent transactions. Source: Etherscan Details of Buterin’s transactions The transactions, which took place within hours of each other, highlight a familiar pattern. Buterin has historically distanced himself from unsolicited memecoin allocations, often referred to as “airdrops,” by liquidating them quickly. His sales are typically interpreted less as a market call on the tokens themselves and more as a statement that he does not wish to hold speculative assets he never asked for. The timing comes amid heightened scrutiny of Ethereum markets. ETH currently trades around $4,100, while the broader crypto market has faced a turbulent week, with Bitcoin (BTC) at one point slipping under $110,000. While the dollar amounts in these sales are modest compared to Ethereum’s nearly $495 billion market capitalization, Buterin’s transactions draw significant attention because of his central role in the crypto ecosystem. Each movement from his wallet sparks debate about meme coin sustainability, Ethereum’s positioning, and broader retail speculation. As Finbold previously reported, large on-chain moves by high-profile wallets, including XRP whale accumulations and Bitcoin millionaire shakeouts are shaping narratives in volatile markets.

Hypurr NFT: A $60,000 Community Identity Symbol, Just Click and Get It?

Hypurr NFT: A $60,000 Community Identity Symbol, Just Click and Get It?

By Alex Liu, Foresight News Hyper Foundation (Hyperliquid Foundation) announced in the early morning of September 29 that it had completed the deployment and distribution of Hypurr NFT. The floor price of this NFT on Opensea once reached US$80,000, and is currently still above 1,400 HYPEs, with a value of over US$60,000, or RMB 400,000. Where does this NFT come from, and why is it valuable? It's said that the way to get it is through "click and go" during an airdrop. Hypurr NFT: Hyperliquid’s “Community Memorial” In the Web3 world, many projects use NFTs, airdrops, and other methods to connect with early-stage communities and enhance a sense of belonging. The Hypurr NFT is a community-building NFT launched by Hyperliquid. It's not a purely utility-oriented NFT, nor is it a financial product with promised returns. Instead, it's more of a symbol, identity, and cultural icon. Background and Initial Distribution: Who Gets the Hypurr NFT? Hyperliquid and HyperEVM To understand Hypurr NFTs, you first need to understand the underlying network architecture. Hyperliquid is a Layer 1 network centered around decentralized trading, aiming to enable efficient on-chain functionality for trading, margin settlement, and order matching. Its consensus mechanism, HyperBFT, is fundamental to Hyperliquid's competitiveness in high-frequency trading and low-latency scenarios. HyperEVM is part of the Hyperliquid architecture: it's not a standalone EVM chain, but rather a channel mechanism that allows developers to reliably read L1 state and initiate operations on core modules on the chain. This means there's bidirectional interaction between HyperEVM and HyperCore (Hyperliquid's foundational state layer). Contracts on the HyperEVM can read L1 state (via read precompiles) and initiate operations on HyperCore via CoreWriter, establishing a linkage between the two layers. This design allows DeFi applications developed on the EVM layer to directly connect to Hyperliquid's liquidity foundation. The design of Hypurr NFT was born on this infrastructure. It is not an independent project, but a community commemorative plan within the Hyperliquid framework. How to obtain: Genesis Event and recognized distribution The Hypurr NFT will be distributed alongside Hyperliquid's Genesis Event in November 2024. According to the Hyper Foundation, "Participants will have the option to receive a Hypurr NFT as a commemorative gift after the HyperEVM launch." In fact, this option was only available to the top 5,000 players who reached the Platinum rank during Hyperliquid's Season 1. The choice between "receive tokens only" and "receive tokens and NFTs" certainly confused overly suspicious participants. The NFT, valued at 400,000 yuan, wasn't a "click and you're gone" offer, but rather a "don't click and you're gone" offer. In addition, the Hyper Foundation conducted a risk assessment on participants and used cluster analysis to limit a single address or user from obtaining too many NFTs to prevent sybil attacks. Page Note: Hypurr NFT has no planned empowerments In terms of total quantity, the Hypurr NFT collection has a total of 4,600 items, including: 4,313 allocated to eligible participants of the Genesis Event 144 are reserved for the Hyper Foundation itself 143 distributed to core contributors (including Hyperliquid Labs, NFT artists, and other early contributors) Once the distribution is complete, the Hypurr NFT will enter circulation. The Hyper Foundation also emphasized in an official statement: "No additional user action is required. The NFT has been distributed." Holder distribution and circulation Currently, there are 4,031 Hypurr NFT holders, with a dispersion of approximately 87.6%. In other words, most NFTs are distributed across multiple addresses rather than being highly concentrated. This distribution helps avoid extreme concentration and increases community participation, but it can also lead to dispersed liquidity: if some holders lock their positions for a long time or remain silent, active supply may be insufficient. Design Intention and Potential Empowerment: Commemoration, Culture and the Future Commemoration and community belonging The primary purpose of Hypurr NFTs is to serve as a memento, a token of appreciation, a reward, and a symbol of recognition for the project's early supporters. Officially, it's "a token shared with those who believed in Hyperliquid early on and helped it grow." Community observations indicate that the ID of each NFT appears to correspond to its ranking on the Hyperliquid leaderboard, with NFTs with lower IDs being more rare. The artistic design of each Hypurr NFT strives to reflect the diversity and personality of the community: different emotions, hobbies, tastes and "quirks" are portrayed in the graphic art and become part of the community's identity. In this sense, holding Hypurr NFT may have symbolic identity value in the community context - a sign of "I am an early witness." Future empowerment possibilities: No promises While the agreement explicitly doesn't promise utility, it doesn't rule out the possibility of additional benefits being added to Hypurr NFTs in the future, either through third parties or within the ecosystem. The agreement states, "Hypurr NFTs may be associated with certain benefits, features, or capabilities, but these are not guaranteed by the agreement." This frees up space for future community and ecosystem planning: for example, certain future events, airdrops, community governance, and interactive privileges may be prioritized based on Hypurr NFT holders. However, this will depend on the subsequent path forward. Currently, no publicly confirmed additional benefits have been announced. Currently, the price of this NFT is high, and market sentiment is enthusiastic. Many people are buying it with the expectation of receiving the right to receive Hyperliquid's next quarterly airdrop. It's important to note that the official statement does not promise "airdrops" or other benefits, so be prepared to consider this NFT as a mere status symbol.

The CEO of the Most Popular Altcoin of Recent Times Responds to Major Criticism and Doubts!

The CEO of the Most Popular Altcoin of Recent Times Responds to Major Criticism and Doubts!

The post The CEO of the Most Popular Altcoin of Recent Times Responds to Major Criticism and Doubts! appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. In an interview with Mable, founder of social protocol Trends, Aster CEO Leonard responded to criticisms that “96% of ASTER tokens are held by a small number of addresses” seen in on-chain data. Leonard maintained that the team doesn’t control these wallets. The CEO noted that, according to token economics, approximately 80% of the ASTER supply is locked and traceable on-chain, and that airdrop addresses account for approximately 40% of the total supply. Other major addresses include spot deposits made by users on exchanges. According to Leonard, some investors are holding their tokens in platform wallets, ready for sale, anticipating price increases. Leonard explained that the current circulating supply is only 10%, including a 1:1 conversion share from existing users (10%) and the initial airdrop distribution (8%). He explained that the remaining tokens are being released gradually as announced in the documentation and can be verified on-chain. He explained that the concentration of contract addresses creates the perception that “the team controls all the tokens,” but in reality, the majority of these tokens belong to users. Leonard noted that YZi Labs is Aster’s sole private investor and has provided significant support to the team despite its small stake. The CEO stated that the company has no intention of liquidating the funds, saying, “Our performance in the BNB ecosystem since the tokenization event has proven the value of our project. Even without mandatory unlocks, YZi Labs has no incentive to sell. Furthermore, the amount of tokens they can receive is limited to a small portion of the 5% team distribution share, as their investment was not direct tokens, but rather an equity investment in the company.” *This is not investment advice.
