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.

Top 3 Alternatives To Ripple (XRP) and Solana (SOL) That Could Turn $250 Into $250K in 2025

Top 3 Alternatives To Ripple (XRP) and Solana (SOL) That Could Turn $250 Into $250K in 2025

The post Top 3 Alternatives To Ripple (XRP) and Solana (SOL) That Could Turn $250 Into $250K in 2025 appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Ripple news has dominated headlines in 2025. XRP and Solana remain two of the most talked-about altcoins, with ETF approvals, institutional demand, and whale moves keeping traders on edge. Still, investors are looking past the obvious picks. Many believe the next 1000x coin could come from newer, fast-rising projects. If you’re looking for where to put $250 this year, Layer Brett, Sonic, and Wormhole stand out. Keep reading to see why they may be the best bets of 2025. Investors search for fresh alternatives to XRP and Solana XRP trades above $3 after strong ETF optimism, while Solana hovers near $220 despite whale inflows of over $800M to exchanges. Both remain solid assets, but many traders want coins with cheaper entry points and higher growth potential. Smaller-cap tokens offer asymmetric upside. A coin priced under $1 can multiply far more quickly than XRP or SOL, which have multi-billion dollar valuations. This is why retail investors continue to shift their attention toward emerging networks. Wormhole and Sonic lead the charge for best gains Wormhole’s W token has rallied from $0.087 to over $0.105 after its treasury model upgrade. The protocol now links network revenue directly to the W token. Analysts highlight this as a rare setup where W’s value grows in tandem with actual usage. With $45M in W already staked and Grayscale adding Wormhole to its watchlist, many see W as a key cross-chain asset for 2025. Sonic has also been in the spotlight after confirming a $ 200 million airdrop for U.S. users. This is one of the first legally approved airdrops in the U.S., a milestone that could spark wider adoption. While S’s price recently dropped to $0.29, top wallets have added over 12M S tokens, signaling insider confidence. Analysts expect S to test $0.45 and possibly $0.68…

New token trading opportunities on the horizon

New token trading opportunities on the horizon

The post New token trading opportunities on the horizon appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. This is a segment from the 0xResearch newsletter. To read full editions, subscribe. In a sea of red, only a few of our indices registered positive returns in yesterday’s session, namely Ethereum Eco and L2s. Notably, Ethereum Ecosystem and L2 tokens were among the hardest hit in the selloff on Monday, so perhaps we’re seeing some resistance forming. Meanwhile, gold continues to go from strength to strength, hitting yet another all-time high of $3,770.  On Monday, approximately $1.7 billion in leveraged positions were liquidated as crowded longs unwound en masse. BTC plunged nearly 3%, while ETH and SOL suffered sharper declines of 6-7%. Markets have attempted to stabilize over the past two days since, but that liquidation event seems to have become a defining catalyst in subsequent trading windows, reshaping positioning, sentiment and structural dynamics in its wake. In the aftermath, Tuesday unfolded as a reactive consolidation period. The majors (BTC, ETH and SOL) largely held near support zones, absorbing the shock without collapsing entirely. The intense deleveraging removed much of the “weak hands,” thereby lowering the risk of further cascade-style moves unless a new catalyst emerges. But momentum has clearly cooled as trades over those two days lacked directional conviction, reflecting the market’s digestion of the prior day’s stress.  Zooming out, the cumulative profit realized (in BTC terms) by long-term holders so far this “cycle” has mimicked previous instances but over a longer period of time. Long-term holders have realized 3.4 million BTC, a historically large figure, highlighting just how significant their distribution has been in this cycle compared to prior ones. Looking ahead, markets appear to be entering a transition phase defined less by euphoria and more by recalibration. With leverage meaningfully reduced and long-term holders continuing to distribute into strength, the next leg will likely depend on…

Dogecoin (DOGE) Rose Over 10,000% in 2021, Could This $0.035 Crypto Beat That?

MASK Token Anticipation Builds, Aster Open Positions Surge 46%

MASK Token Anticipation Builds, Aster Open Positions Surge 46%

The post MASK Token Anticipation Builds, Aster Open Positions Surge 46% appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. BTC$113,060.17, the crypto market leader, has bounced to nearly $113,000, hinting at an end to the three-day losing streak. Other major coins are following BTC’s lead, with further gains contingent on bitcoin moving past key levels. “Much will depend on the ability of bitcoin bulls to overcome important resistance levels at 113,500 and 115,000. If they succeed, there will be a chance to restore the uptrend. Failure will increase the risks of a Bitcoin correction,” Alex Kuptsikevich, senior analyst at FxPro, said in an email. Token Talk By Oliver Knight MetaMask’s parent company ConsenSys, and Ethereum co-founder Joe Lubin, recently confirmed that the long-rumored MASK token is indeed coming, and possibly “sooner than you would expect.” Lubin emphasized that MASK would be tied to the decentralization of certain parts of the MetaMask platform, moving control from a purely centralized model toward community governance. While no official tokenomics have yet been published, MetaMask seems likely to follow a model similar to that used by ConsenSys’s Layer-2 project Linea: retaining a modest share for the company while allocating much of the supply toward ecosystem incentives, developer funding, and user rewards. In previous token launches, eligible users, particularly active ones, have been prioritized in the distributions, which has fueled speculation that the airdrop will focus heavily on users with meaningful activity in MetaMask, like swaps or interactions with dApps. However, some X users have warned Metamask wallet owners to taper their expectations; with Wale Moca saying users could receive just $8.5 each if the token debuts at a $3 billion fully diluted value (FDV). That is based on 70 million users each owning an average of five wallets. MASK is now being anticipated alongside a series of major airdrops, including Base, OpenSea and a second HyperLiquid drop.

Who benefits most from new global superpower deal to revamp Bitcoin market within 6 months?

Who benefits most from new global superpower deal to revamp Bitcoin market within 6 months?

The post Who benefits most from new global superpower deal to revamp Bitcoin market within 6 months? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Two global superpowers have agreed to a groundbreaking deal that will rewrite Bitcoin and crypto market investments over the next six months. A UK and United States task force with a 180-day deadline aims to align Bitcoin and crypto product listings, custody, and disclosures across the two markets. The initiative, announced during the state visit and co-chaired by finance ministries with regulators involved, is framed to remove cross-border frictions in capital markets and digital assets, with recommendations expected around March 2026. The scope includes cooperation on wholesale digital markets and a timetable to report within six months. This timing coincides with a fresh U.S. exchange framework that lets NYSE, Nasdaq, and Cboe list spot commodity and crypto exchange-traded products under generic criteria, shortening market to about 75 days and opening a product pipeline beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum. The policy sequence creates a workable playbook The U.S. generic listing standard sets repeatable eligibility, surveillance sharing, and disclosure patterns. The task force can map those patterns into a cross-listing pathway for London that recognizes outcomes rather than duplicating the process. The U.S. rule change reduces the interval between filing and the first trade to a fixed window, which has been one of the primary gating items for new single-asset and basket products. If London accepts the U.S. package as equivalent for secondary listings, exchanges can carry over diligence and market surveillance agreements, then scale local documentation to UK rules. UK capital-raising reforms that raise thresholds for follow-on offerings and streamline prospectuses provide the other half of the plumbing due to shorter documentation windows and a new public offers platform that will be phased in through 2026. A market structure test case already exists in London. The London Stock Exchange permits professional-only crypto exchange-traded notes, launched in 2024, and by mid-2025 hosted 17…
