Airdrop Updates 🪂

Jumper — Perps Coming Soon, TGE Coming Soon?

Jumper is spinning out from LI.FI into an independent company — LI.FI stays on backend infrastructure while Jumper becomes the consumer-facing "super-app."

The JUMP token sale is confirmed via Legion — Jumper’s first outside capital raise ever, with no separate equity round. CEO Marko Jurina framed it directly: “users, contributors and investors will hold the same asset.”

Jumper Perps launches “in the coming weeks” as a separate product story — no points program confirmed for it, and existing Jumper XP (from swaps/bridges) is a different, older ledger with no stated connection to the Legion sale.

⚠️ This is a paid token sale via Legion, not a free airdrop — participating means committing capital, with all the normal ICO-participation risks (allocation caps, KYC, price discovery post-launch). No tokenomics, supply, or sale terms were published in the announcement itself — check Legion’s official sale page directly before committing anything.

Existing XP holders have no confirmed treatment in this process — don’t assume prior farming automatically earns Legion allocation priority. Jumper Perps has no confirmed points program yet; anything claiming otherwise right now is unofficial speculation.

Only use jumper.xyz and Legion’s official platform — expect clone sale pages to appear fast given the scale of this announcement.

⚠️DISCLAIMER NOTICE⚠️ A note before the next section:

• New protocols often carry the most attractive airdrop odds, early TVL, thin points competition, and generous multipliers. But that same immaturity is exactly what makes them risky.

• Smart-contract exploits, depegs, insolvent yield strategies, and outright project failure happen disproportionately in a protocol’s first 3–6 months (we’ve seen it play out with Dango and others in this very letter). Nothing here has a multi-year track record.

• Treat every entry below as capital-at-risk, not “free points”. Size positions like you could lose them entirely, and never deposit more than you’re fully prepared to write off.

Airdrop News/Updates &

Travix — AI Perp DEX, Still Pre-Mainnet

Travix pitches a perp venue for crypto, plus a genuinely interesting angle: 24/7 perps on compute (H100, memory) and KR/JP/HK semis/stocks — names TradFi already trades but with no continuous on-chain mark. Backed by Amber Group in the seed round (amount undisclosed). Still testnet, own timeline says mainnet is phased after upcoming Seoul/SG/Bangkok events. Homepage volume/OI numbers are placeholders — nothing is live yet.

No token, no points program, no live books. The “AI omnibroker/agent” layer is unproven marketing until they publish an open model audit and replayable trade logs. The actually differentiated part isn’t the AI — it’s whether they can list a real compute index with tight spreads and documented methodology.

Nothing to farm right now — early access waitlist only. Don’t pre-deposit into any vault; nothing here is documented enough to trust yet.

Official link: travix.finance

⚠️ Team is 4 months old with no public founder bios at the standard of comparable protocols. Off-chain matching means you’re trusting their sequencer like any other off-book DEX. Oracle/index risk is the entire protocol if they do launch compute perps — a bad index means rigged pricing. When incentives eventually start, expect a standard volume/OI points farm printed into empty books. Watch for: (1) a real market maker quoting compute pairs, (2) published index methodology, (3) replayable agent trade logs, (4) October audits landing. Until then, this is a watchlist item, not a farm.

New Opportunities:

Liquid — Multi-Venue Aggregator, No Token Yet

Liquid is a mobile-first, non-custodial frontend that routes one wallet into many books — crypto perps, US/KR stocks, pre-IPO names, commodities, FX, prediction markets — through venues like Hyperliquid, Lighter, and Ostium, up to ~40-50x leverage.

Backed by Paradigm across two rounds ($25.6M total equity, no token round), with Lighter’s Vlad and Opendoor’s Eric Wu as notable angels.

No token, no TGE, no confirmed supply allocation. Points “may” become a drop — that’s the entire official commitment. Season 1 has paid 100k points/week since November 18, 2025, nearly 10 months of continuous print already. Earlier S0 (600k) and S0.5 (200k) were the cheap-points window — you’re now farming into a diluted pool (~4.3M S1 points already distributed) rather than an early one.

The real edge here is distribution, not a new matching engine: one trade can potentially earn points on both Liquid and the underlying venue (Hyperliquid, Lighter, Ostium) simultaneously — but only if those venues still credit volume routed through Liquid, which changes and needs verifying per venue before you assume the double-dip works.

Official link: liquid.trade/markets

⚠️ Formula for points weighting is proprietary and can reweight wash activity after the fact, same risk as any other perps DEX. You’re taking on each underlying venue’s oracle, liquidation engine, and geo restrictions — “non-custodial” doesn’t mean Liquid owns a unified onchain book. Pre-IPO and equity perps are synthetic exposure with the same legal/oracle risk as any tokenized-equity product. Don’t spin up a dedicated wash-trading book chasing 100k/week this late — you’re heavily diluted vs early S0 farmers. Paradigm-backed apps sometimes never ship a user token at all; points here carry no guarantee.

SmartX — Waitlist Contest, Not a Product Yet

SmartX pitches a social trading terminal for memes, perps, stocks, and prediction markets — backed by YZi Labs (Binance Labs successor), which is the actually interesting part here. Not a DEX or AMM. The app itself is still “coming soon” — a prediction-market Alpha exists, but this current campaign is purely a pre-launch waitlist contest.

“Chapter One” is a referral quiz, not a farm. Take a 6-question trader-type test, post your invite link on X, paste the URL back to bind your account and unlock rank. Earlier joiners and completed referrals earn “Boost.” Prizes are cash and fee coupons, not token allocation: top spot gets 3 months of 50% fee discount plus a trip and iPhone, ranks 2-100 get smaller perks and discounts, and up to 10,000 USDT total is shared across a weighted pool.

No token, no points formula, no TGE. Waitlist rank is not a points system — it’s a referral leaderboard contest.

Official link: smartx.io

⚠️ This is an attention-farming growth loop (quiz → tweet → email), not product usage. “Permanently recorded on-chain” refers to a leaderboard list/NFT, not equity or token rights. Rank is purely referral-based and time-sensitive — falling outside the top 5,000 happens fast as more people join. Fee discounts only have value once the app actually launches and you trade real size. YZi Labs backing does not imply a Binance listing or any confirmed future token. Multi-accounting will likely get wiped — they’ve explicitly stated a “one person, one account” rule. Worth a free 3-minute signup if you’re already posting on X; not worth sizing capital or building multiple wallets for. Revisit once the app is live, and they publish how trading actually maps to any future token.

Airdrop Claims 🪂:

Apyx — TGE Confirmed 4 Weeks Out (Oct 13)

Apyx wraps listed perpetual preferreds (leaning on $STRC) into apxUSD (dividend-backed synthetic dollar) and apyUSD (yield-bearing version), targeting ~13% APY from the actual coupon, not funding rates. Dates are locked: Season 2 Pips end October 11; TGE and airdrop October 13.

Fixed 100M APYX supply, no emissions — Season 1 + Season 2 combined give the community 11% pre-TGE, with S1 wallets getting a +20% boost on S2 Pips. The 42x Solana apyUSD boost already ended Sept 14 — don’t pay a Solana premium chasing a dead multiplier.

To farm the final month: hold apxUSD/apyUSD, use Pendle PT/YT/LP, or Morpho supply/borrow loops on app.apyx.fi/rewards.

⚠️ Yield is issuer-preferred risk — STRC can trade under $100, and buybacks are policy, not a guarantee. “13%” is a target on the credit, not a fixed stablecoin APY. This is a dated ~1-month farm, not a multi-quarter play — size stable inventory you’re genuinely comfortable holding as STRC-credit risk through the TGE snap.Official link:

⚠️DISCLAIMER NOTICE⚠️ A note before the next section:

• New protocols often carry the most attractive airdrop odds, early TVL, thin points competition, and generous multipliers. But that same immaturity is exactly what makes them risky.

• Smart-contract exploits, depegs, insolvent yield strategies, and outright project failure happen disproportionately in a protocol’s first 3–6 months (we’ve seen it play out with Dango and others in this very letter). Nothing here has a multi-year track record.

Airdrop News/Updates &

Tydro — Ink’s Native Aave v3, Farming for $INK

Tydro is Ink’s (Kraken’s OP-Stack L2) native Aave v3 white-label — supply stables, ETH, kBTC, or GHO, borrow against collateral, with standard eMode and liquidation mechanics.

Not a new money-market design, just Aave contracts deployed for the Ink ecosystem. TVL and fees has been growing lately, reflecting a rise in farming interest

No $TYDRO token exists. Points are Tydro Ink Points, which convert toward $INK — Kraken’s L2 token that hasn’t launched yet. This means you’re farming Ink, not Tydro specifically — if INK’s TGE slips or Tydro’s slice of the community allocation ends up small, the points APR here is largely marketing.

To farm: supply USDT0, USDG, USDC, GHO, WETH, or kBTC to earn Tydro Ink Points, tracked and claimed via Merkl from the same wallet. Season 1 snapshot already locked in January 2026; Season 2 is live now through the eventual Ink TGE.

S2 boosts (max 50%) favor Tydro OG users (before Sept 30, 2026), Aave OG holders (pre-2024), Ink OG users, larger deposit size, and kBTC holders — these boosts re-slice the same fixed points pool rather than minting extra points, so new small deposits share a pool with existing $10M+ lenders at base rate.

Official link: app.tydro.com

⚠️ No official INK TGE date exists — informal chatter pointed to Jul-Sep 2026, a window already passed as of mid-September. Points can keep accruing into a delayed TGE and get diluted the longer that takes. If the often-cited “45% airdrop” figure still holds, it’s whole-chain, not Tydro-specific — Kraken Pro activity could dominate that allocation over Tydro lenders. Standard Aave risks apply: oracle failures, utilization spikes, and newer isolated-listing collateral (SolvBTC, etc.) carry more risk than blue-chip assets. Ink ecosystem TVL has been volatile with exploit headlines earlier in 2026 — Tydro’s health is only as good as Ink itself. Don’t lever positions purely to chase boost optics; size what you’re comfortable leaving deposited through an uncertain TGE timeline. Only use tydro.com — lookalike domains like tydro-v2.com are already circulating.

New Opportunities:

BULK — Solana Perp DEX, AURA Points Post-Mainnet

Solana perp DEX with matching built into the validator client itself (BulkBFT) — 5-20ms fills, no gas, up to 20x margin. Mainnet went invite-only Sept 5. Genesis phase offers 0 bps maker fees through ~Oct 5. Backed by $8M seed (Robot Ventures, 6th Man Ventures, Anatoly as angel), audited by Zellic.

No $BULK token exists yet. Points are AURA — co-founder tweeted a 30% user allocation covering testnet, pre-deposit, and mainnet activity combined, but this isn’t published tokenomics.

Farm by trading on app.bulk.trade, holding BulkSOL for weekly AURA plus staking yield, or using referrals. Genesis 0-fee window makes volume cheapest right now. Day-1 had a real liquidation incident, reimbursed plus extra — messy ops, not an exit scam.

Official link: app.bulk.trade

⚠️ TGE timeline is vague — Discord chatter suggested late 2026 into 2027. A slipping TGE dilutes weekly AURA as the fixed print spreads across more users. Invite codes circulating on X are often recycled — get one from an active trader, not a KOL. Novel validator-level consensus carries infra risk beyond typical Solana program risk. No official AURA-to-BULK formula exists. No token or claim site exists currently — ignore any "TGE claim" links.

Strata Markets — srUSDe/jrUSDe Tranching, TGE Already Delayed

The “~5% APR + Strata + Ethena points” line refers to the Pendle LP-srUSDe pool, not simply holding srUSDe. Latest quote: Pendle LP-srUSDe-OCT26 ≈ 4.9% APY plus 60x Strata and 35x Ethena points.

Strata tranches sUSDe into risk levels: srUSDe (senior, targets Aave-like floor with junior absorbing first-loss) and jrUSDe (junior, eats shortfall or captures upside). Built by Frontera Labs, Ethena Foundation-incubated, $3M seed from Maven 11 and Lightspeed. Audited by Cyfrin and Quantstamp.

TGE flag: originally marketed for April 2026 — now mid-September with no new date given.

Points accrue via holding srUSDe/jrUSDe (base points), LP-srUSDe (highest tier — 60x Strata, 35x Ethena), LP-jrUSDe (~20x Strata only), and referrals (10% of referee points). No official points-to-token conversion formula published.

⚠️ “Protected” does not mean insured — junior TVL is the actual buffer, and if junior gets wiped out while sUSDe underperforms, senior simply earns raw sUSDe APY with no real floor.

Strata’s launch story cites Ethena’s October 2025 USDe depeg stress event as precedent. Pendle LP positions mature and die — the October 2026 maturity requires rolling or sitting in an expired position, with IL risk if you zap incorrectly.

The 5% headline yield is not the edge here — you can get comparable returns on vanilla stables; you’re being paid in points specifically for taking on the combined Ethena, Strata, and Pendle risk stack.

Looping PT-srUSDe on Aave (advertised 11-20%+) is a separate leveraged product with liquidation risk, distinct from the ~5% LP yield being discussed. TGE has already missed its original window — continued point accrual without a token launch means ongoing dilution risk.

Only use official strata. markets and @strata_markets — a completely unrelated Solana game called @play_strata exists under a similar name.

Airdrop Claims 🪂:

GRVT — Claim Your Tranche (30-Day Window, No Make-Up)

Required registration by mid-to-late July with a chosen multiplier plan (1x/2x/4x). Tokens unlock in tranches over ~12 months — each with a 30-day claim window that is permanently forfeited if missed; no recovery.

Log in to your GRVT trading account and check your allocation plus next tranche expiry date now.

Official link: grvt.io/exchange/reward-portal

⚠️ Missing any 30-day claim window permanently forfeits that tranche with no recovery. Geo-blocked jurisdictions apply — VPN gaming can void your eligibility. Only use the official grvt.io/exchange/reward-portal and verify via @grvt_io.

⚠️DISCLAIMER NOTICE⚠️ A note before the next section:

• New protocols often carry the most attractive airdrop odds, early TVL, thin points competition, and generous multipliers. But that same immaturity is exactly what makes them risky.

• Smart-contract exploits, depegs, insolvent yield strategies, and outright project failure happen disproportionately in a protocol’s first 3–6 months (we’ve seen it play out with Dango and others in this very letter). Nothing here has a multi-year track record.

• Treat every entry below as capital-at-risk, not “free points”. Size positions like you could lose them entirely, and never deposit more than you’re fully prepared to write off.

Airdrop News/Updates &

Polymarket Perps — Launched, No Confirmed Airdrop

Polymarket launched Perps, adding leveraged perpetuals across crypto, equities, indices, and commodities with up to 20x leverage. Markets expanded from ~10 to 67 within days, while US and Canada users remain blocked and routed to the CFTC-regulated polymarket.us affiliate.

There is no official points program or confirmed airdrop. Polymarket’s docs explicitly deny a token or announced airdrop, despite CMO comments that a coin and airdrop are coming and recent POLY/$POLY trademark filings. Treat circulating “airdrop multiplier” claims as speculation.

What’s real is pUSD-denominated rewards: prediction-market makers can earn liquidity rewards and rebates, eligible positions receive ~4% annualized holding rewards, and Perps liquidity providers share a $75K/day maker rewards pool based on maker share, spread, two-sided quoting, and uptime.

For a potential future $POLY, focus on genuine recurring volume, maker activity, multiple markets, and early Perps usage rather than short-term wash volume. Account consistency may also matter if Polymarket adopts strict anti-sybil filtering

Official link: https://polymarket.com/perps/asset/btc

⚠️ No airdrop confirmed in writing — official docs actively deny one.

Regulatory risk is real and live: 20+ states are fighting over whether this constitutes gambling, with the Ninth Circuit already siding with states in that framing — Perps for US users could stay locked or get downgraded. Standard leverage risk applies at 20x with hourly funding — this becomes a liquidation farm fast if treated as free points.

Event market resolution carries oracle/dispute risk distinct from simple crypto mark pricing. Sybil filters will likely be harsh if Hyperliquid-style patterns are followed — wash volume and bot activity have already been alleged in earlier Polymarket periods.

Political key-man risk exists given the ICE and Trump-adjacent capital structure. Fake “$POLY claim” sites will proliferate — only use official polymarket.com and polymarket.us.

New Opportunities:

Fables — Dynamic-Fee Hooks on Robinhood Chain (Points + Precursor Token)

Fables is a Uniswap v4 hook layer on Robinhood Chain that dynamically adjusts fees around stock-market closures and volatility. Live since mid-August across tokenized stocks, ETH, and gold, it has seen $10M+ in deposits and $200M in week-2 volume. The team is small and independent, without major institutional backing.

Two tokens exist: $PROLOGUE is live and acts as a precursor/warrant, designed to convert into $FABLES at TGE at a stated >40:1 ratio, representing 2.5% of the total FABLES supply.

$FABLES is the actual governance token and has not launched, with an October 5 TGE target that remains unconfirmed.

The actual farming opportunity is LPing on fables.fi. Chapter 1 distributes 1B points over six weeks, with 900M for LPs and 100M for referrals. Points are based on actual swap fees generated, meaning out-of-range liquidity earns nothing — active, high-fee pairs are the focus.

Official link: https://www.fables.fi/markets

⚠️ No named third-party audit exists for the hooks/AccessManager stack — a real gap. TGE date already softened from a target to “unconfirmed.”

PROLOGUE is a thin, volatile warrant token (50%+ moves in single days), not equivalent to holding FABLES — if TGE slips or the ratio changes, PROLOGUE eats that risk immediately while points farmers can just wait.

Note: the >40:1 conversion ratio and the 115M-liquid/25M-PROLOGUE-redemption breakdown come from third-party trackers, not Fables’ own docs, which reportedly haven’t finalized conversion terms — treat these as best-available estimates, not locked mechanics.

A separate, disavowed meme called $FABLE (no S) exists — verify ticker and contract address every time.

Only 115M FABLES is liquid at TGE (per current estimates), and PROLOGUE redemptions alone account for ~25M before points holders get their share. Uniswap still dominates Robinhood Chain volume, so Fables could lose the routing war once incentives end.

No redemption contract is deployed — any “claim FABLES” link right now is a scam. Only use official fables.fi and @fablesfi.

Arcus — Robinhood Chain RWA Perps DEX

Arcus is a Robinhood Chain DEX built by dYdX Labs and Robinhood Crypto, offering 24/7 tokenized stocks, cross-margined perps up to 50x, and pTokens for leveraged positions. Off-hours equity perps require extra margin, with restricted jurisdictions blocked.

Robinhood is a strategic investor and distribution partner, but Arcus is separate from dYdX Chain and $ DYDX. A future dYdX token may reward past traders, stakers, and validators, though details are unconfirmed. No official Arcus points program exists, but the team said a separate Arcus token is coming.

For farming, trade Stock Tokens with 0% spot fees, use available perps, or deploy pTokens. Waitlist scoring includes prior volume on dYdX, Hyperliquid, and Lighter, plus RWA volume and referrals. You can connect multiple wallets to aggregate history.

Perps Waitlist link: waitlist.arcus.xyz

Official link for spot trading: https://app.arcus.xyz/trade/spot/TSLA

⚠️ No points program and no confirmed allocation percentage for early Arcus activity specifically — dYdX’s own leadership has since confirmed a future token with allocation “prioritized” for the dYdX community (past traders/stakers/validators), but how that treats waitlist-only Arcus users is still unclear, and that slice could be small.

Tokenized equity plus 50x leverage plus offshore users is a genuine regulatory magnet — one ruling could affect the stock book or the entire front end.

Robinhood Chain concentration means bridge, USDG, and RH infrastructure all sit in one ecosystem. pTokens inherit the underlying perp account’s funding and liquidation risk plus additional ERC-20 DeFi risk on top.

Geo-restrictions are enforced — VPNing into a blocked region risks zero allocation and account bans. Trading empty stock tokens does nothing for the waitlist score; perps volume is what’s explicitly weighted.'

Airdrop Claims 🪂:

Umia ($UMIA) — Sale Closed, Claim Sept 2

Onchain venture and token-launch platform on Base, incubated by Chainbound with a $4.6M raise led by cyber Fund. The public auction already closed on Aug 29 — hit its $0.36 cap ($18M FDV) in about 7 minutes, with ~678 wallets filling out of 2,700 connected. Claim and trading opens September 2, 12:00 UTC on Uniswap v4 (Base). Purchased tokens have no vesting; unspent USDC gets refunded.

If you bid, claim on Sept 2. If you didn’t bid, there’s nothing left here — no community airdrop was ever announced, and third-party trackers explicitly flagged this.

Official link: app.umia.finance

⚠️ High day-1 float — ~62% of the 40M launch supply unlocked immediately, meaning real sell pressure potential. Sale filled at the very top of its price range. This is a token purchase you’re now claiming, not a farmed reward.

Linera ($LNRA) — Community Sale Live Sept 1–8

L1 for real-time “gamified” markets with strong testnet traction (~50k traders, 80M+ predictions, 2B+ test txs). This week’s event is a paid community round, not a free airdrop — running Sept 1–8 via sale.linera.net at a $160M FDV.

Two pools: reserved (badge holders, activity-based priority) and open (pro rata, $100k cap, $100 min). Commitment Credits give $1 fee-free Season 1 volume per $1 committed. Allocations finalize ~Sept 15; unfilled amounts refunded.

Badges only improve priority — no free allocation. Without badges, this is just a public ICO at $160M FDV.

⚠️ You’re buying pre-mainnet at a set valuation — this is not low-risk DeFi. KYC/Sonar verification required. Open pool allocation can be diluted if oversubscribed. Team and investor tokens vest over 12-month cliff plus 24-36 months, but the sale tokens themselves are liquid at TGE unless you opt into a lock. A genuine points/airdrop path may exist later for Season 1, but that is not what’s live this week.

⚠️DISCLAIMER NOTICE⚠️ A note before the next section:

• New protocols often carry the most attractive airdrop odds, early TVL, thin points competition, and generous multipliers. But that same immaturity is exactly what makes them risky.

• Smart-contract exploits, depegs, insolvent yield strategies, and outright project failure happen disproportionately in a protocol’s first 3–6 months (we’ve seen it play out with Dango and others in this very letter). Nothing here has a multi-year track record.

• Treat every entry below as capital-at-risk, not “free points”. Size positions like you could lose them entirely, and never deposit more than you’re fully prepared to write off.

Airdrop News/Updates &

Flop Labs ($FLOP) — Tokenomics First Look (Update)

Arthur Hayes-led network for the agentic economy, where AI agents pay for compute/inference using $FLOP under a “proof-of-useful-inference” design. Fair launch narrative — no VC allocation or presale — though team/Foundation still get 11.4% via block issuance.

The split heavily favors technical participants over social contributors — the DID + content path most people can do likely draws from the smaller reserve slice.

Confirmed activity: DID + genuine Technocore contribution (generate did:key, publish something useful, record it signed). Emerging but unofficial: GPU inference mining, running a validator, or agent-based inference spending.

Next catalyst: AMA Wednesday, Sept 2, 09:00–10:30 SGT with Hayes — where eligibility weights should get clarified.

Official X account: x.com/flop_labs
Official Website: flop.finance

⚠️ All numbers are draft and can change. Most of the pool goes to miners/agents/validators, not content contributors. Token targets Q4 2026, chain genesis not until Q1 2027 — you’d hold a claim to a network that doesn’t exist yet. Not a passive yield farm — size expectations accordingly.

HyENA — Product Shutdown, Nothing to Claim

HyENA was a HIP-3 perp DEX on Hyperliquid using Ethena USDe as margin, built on the thesis that idle USDe should earn yield while trading. Ethena rewards ended in June 2026; HyENA Points are final, with no snapshot, conversion, or distribution. No token was ever planned.

If you have exposure: open perp positions auto-settle via TWAP as markets delist Aug 31–Sept 2, no action needed. HLPe holders should withdraw 1:1 plus accrued rewards via Upshift (1-day queue) — final rewards issued Aug 27, last affiliate payout Sept 9.

Official link: hyena.trade

⚠️ Ignore any “claim HyENA token” sites — none exists, and any such site is a scam. Don’t wait for a retroactive airdrop; points have no confirmed monetary value.

Metric — Watchlist (No Confirmed Points Program Yet)

Multi-chain DEX with “active pools” that price against live oracle feeds (Chainlink + Pyth) instead of AMM pool ratios — single-asset LP, no pairing needed. Thin liquidity, high turnover: claims ~$2B monthly volume on under $4M LP capital, vs DeFiLlama’s ~$4.8M TVL. Already routing aggregator flow across HyperEVM, Monad, Base, and more.

No points program, Season, or TGE exists. Only signal: a wallet-submission form at metric.xyz “for a chance at early incentives.” Genuinely speculative — watchlist only.

Low-cost footprint: submit your wallet and follow @metricxyz for the public pool launch. If you have already swapped on HyperEVM/Base/Monad, some flow may already route through Metric.

Official X account: x.com/metricxyz

⚠️ No confirmed incentives — wallet submission may amount to nothing. High-volume, low-TVL design can mask real LP risk (inventory exposure, oracle risk, adverse selection). No tokenomics published, so any future airdrop size is pure guesswork. Product could remain gated indefinitely rather than transitioning to public. Watch for unofficial “Metric points” dashboards — only trust announcements directly from @metricxyz. Do not size meaningful capital purely on the hope of a future drop.

Airdrop Claims 🪂:

TermMax ($TMX) — TGE August 25

Multi-chain fixed-rate lending protocol on 10 EVM chains with $90M+ TVL, backed by Cumberland DRW and HashKey Capital. Pre-TGE points have ended — this is a claim window, not an active farm.

Check your allocation via the checker and lock in vesting/claim preference (deadline was Aug 23; some appeals may still be open). Binance Alpha lists $TMX first on Aug 25 — 225+ Alpha Points claims ~200 TMX for 15 points, first-come, first-served. Season 1 is live post-TGE but invite-only — activity earns Tico/Ancient Coin convertible to more $TMX.

Official link: leaderboard.termmax.ts.finance/wallet/tutorial/quick-start

⚠️ Claim decisions are final. Only ~20% circulating at TGE — unlock pressure likely. Season 1 requires an invite. Binance Alpha claim consumes points regardless of success. Only use official TermMax and Binance links.

Aligned Layer ($ALIGN) — Claim Live

Aligned is a ZK infrastructure and proof verification/aggregation layer on Ethereum. $ALIGN launched ~August 20, 2026, with the airdrop representing ~8.74% of the 10B supply — claims are open now at airdrop.alignedlayer.com. Pure claim window, not active farming.

Allocations of 10,000 tokens or fewer unlock in full at TGE and are claimable on Base. Larger allocations get 10,000 at TGE, with the remainder vesting linearly over 12 months on Ethereum L1 — claim on the correct network for your size.

Official link: airdrop.alignedlayer.com

⚠️ Price has dumped significantly since listing. Larger allocations stay mostly locked for a year. Only use the official airdrop.alignedlayer.com — ignore any DM or reply claim links.

⚠️DISCLAIMER NOTICE⚠️ A note before the next section:

• New protocols often carry the most attractive airdrop odds, early TVL, thin points competition, and generous multipliers. But that same immaturity is exactly what makes them risky.

• Smart-contract exploits, depegs, insolvent yield strategies, and outright project failure happen disproportionately in a protocol’s first 3–6 months (we’ve seen it play out with Dango and others in this very letter). Nothing here has a multi-year track record.

• Treat every entry below as capital-at-risk, not “free points”. Size positions like you could lose them entirely, and never deposit more than you’re fully prepared to write off.

Airdrop News/Updates &

infiniFi — TGE Confirmed Q4 2026, Boosted Points Start Tomorrow

infiniFi confirmed Q4 2026 TGE after ~14 months of speculation. Season 1 and Season 2 points already earned have fixed allocations — no dilution. Starting Aug 26, 11am ET, the highest-ever point boost begins from a new fixed-allocation pool, running through TGE.

Track record: 15 months live, $8.75M in returns across 5,000+ depositors, zero security incidents, survived five liquidity shocks (including the Resolv/Morpho fallout) without ever failing same-block redemptions.

Official link: infinifi.xyz/

⚠️ No exact TGE date — Q4 is a quarter-wide window. Conversion ratio to the eventual token not yet published. Standard DeFi yield risk applies.

Arc — Circle’s L1 (Free Optionality, Mainnet September 16)

Arc is Circle’s new Layer 1, the “Economic OS for the internet” — USDC as native gas, sub-second finality, full EVM compatibility. Backed by a $222M presale at $3B FDV led by a16z, with validators including BlackRock, Visa, and Mastercard.

No points program or airdrop mechanism exists. The testnet has been live since October 2025, free via a faucet, but nothing ties activity to a guaranteed reward. Mainnet targets September 16.

The whitepaper allocates 60% of the 10B supply to the ecosystem — a theoretical pool for future rewards, but no snapshot or criteria have been confirmed. Stay lightly active on testnet and be ready for mainnet day one; treat this as free optionality, not an active farm.

Official link: arc.io/

⚠️ No confirmed points program, airdrop mechanism, or retail allocation criteria exists — this is pure speculation based on the ecosystem allocation percentage in the whitepaper. The heavy institutional/TradFi focus of the validator set and design genuinely could mean retail gets a smaller consideration than typical crypto-native L1 launches. Testnet activity carries no guarantee of counting toward anything. Mainnet execution risk remains until September 16 actually happens.

New Opportunities:

Nado — Season 2 Points + Weekly USDT0 (Paid While You Farm)

Nado is a CLOB DEX on Ink (Kraken’s L2) offering spot, perps, and money markets under one unified margin account, built by a team with Kraken and Vertex roots. Dual reward structure: Season 2 points (open access) confirmed to convert into $INK at TGE, plus a weekly cash pool up to $100K USDT0 that scales with volume, split across taker volume (75% weighting), maker activity, and open interest.

Points pool scales too — floor of 300k weekly, capping ~950k in high-volume weeks. One of the few farms here paying real cash weekly while also stacking toward a confirmed token. Genuine double-dip: xStocks used on Nado stacks xPoints on top of Nado’s points and INK path simultaneously.

To farm: prioritize taker volume (heaviest weighting), maintain open interest, consider LP on boosted markets. Claim USDT0 weekly rather than letting it sit. Consistency beats sporadic large sessions.

Official link: app.nado.xyz/points

⚠️ As Season 2’s open access continues attracting more participants, individual point shares will likely dilute over time — earlier consistent activity has an edge over late entry. The exact $INK conversion rate and mechanics from Nado points are still to-be-determined. Standard perp trading and leverage risk applies. Ink L2 carries its own smart-contract and chain-level risk as a newer network.

Variational — Omni Points (Time-Sensitive)

Variational runs an RFQ-based derivatives protocol on Arbitrum: Omni (zero-fee retail perps, 500+ markets, up to 50x) and Pro (institutional OTC). $1.4B+ dual-sided OI and hundreds of billions in lifetime volume. Backed by Bain Capital Crypto and a $50M Series A led by Dragonfly — $61.8M total raised.

Omni Points distributes a fixed ~150,000 points weekly for prior-week trading activity — your share depends on total participant volume, not just yours. Legacy traders get +10%, 30-day volume tiers add up to +5%, referrals earn 1 point per 10 the referee generates.

Program ends by Q3 2026 — roughly 1–1.5 months left. $VAR isn’t live yet, but ~50% of supply is earmarked for community with 30%+ of protocol revenue committed to buyback and burn.

To farm: trade consistently on volume and sustained OI, use a referral code, track tier progress. Zero fees don’t mean zero cost — funding and spread still apply.

Official link: omni.variational.io/points

⚠️ This is time-limited — the program ends by Q3 2026, so late starters get less runway than early participants. The fixed weekly pool means more participants (already 24k+ accounts) directly dilute your share over time. Zero fees don’t mean zero cost — funding rates and spread still apply on real positions. Geo-restrictions apply in various jurisdictions. No token live yet — TGE timing and final allocation mechanics aren’t confirmed.

Airdrop Claims 🪂:

Multipli ($MULT) — Community Sale Ends Aug 24

RWA/yield protocol backed by Pantera and Sequoia ($21.5M raised). ORB holders now choose between buying $MULT at a discounted $100M FDV and vesting rewards for free over 4 years (with a 1-year cliff), plus a separate Day-1 airdrop. Testnet tORBs holders can buy up to $5,000 at the same preferred FDV.

Check allocation and choose at the official claim portal before August 24.

Official link: claim.multipli.fi/

⚠️ Vesting locks rewards for up to 4 years. FDV assumptions carry valuation risk. Allocation depends on prior farming activity. Only use official Multipli links.

⚠️DISCLAIMER NOTICE⚠️ A note before the next section:

• New protocols often carry the most attractive airdrop odds, early TVL, thin points competition, and generous multipliers. But that same immaturity is exactly what makes them risky.

• Smart-contract exploits, depegs, insolvent yield strategies, and outright project failure happen disproportionately in a protocol’s first 3–6 months (we’ve seen it play out with Dango and others in this very letter). Nothing here has a multi-year track record.

Airdrop News/Updates &

Hylo — XP Boost Ended, Season 1 Ongoing

Solana protocol offering liquidation-resistant leveraged tokens (xSOL/xBTC, 2-4x exposure with no funding fees via delta-neutral design) plus a stablecoin suite. eHYUSD is the standout — a fully delta-neutral, yield-bearing stablecoin that earns yield from every Hylo-leveraged token, currently at ~8.3% APY. Backed by Robot Ventures, Colosseum, and Solana Ventures.

Season 1 XP is live with no fixed end date. Base rates: xSOL/xBTC earn 20 XP per $ per day (highest), hyUSD and hyloSOL+ earn 5 XP, eHYUSD and hyloSOL earn 1 XP. Crowns from leveling up give permanent multipliers, and referrals earn 10% of referee XP plus a 5% boost for the new user. The recent eHYUSD Genesis Boost Event (up to 25% extra XP) has now ended — farming reverts to base rates plus any remaining partner multipliers (Kamino, Exponent, Loopscale, etc., with some rolling over until ~Aug 24).

Track everything at hylo.so

⚠️ Delta-neutral design reduces but does not eliminate risk — leveraged tokens still carry underlying market exposure. No confirmed tokenomics or XP conversion rate; TGE and airdrop remain unannounced. eHYUSD yield is variable. Opportunity cost applies to capital locked in positions for the “capital + time” farming model.

Lighter ($LIT) on Robinhood Chain — New Points Program Live

Lighter, the zk-rollup perps engine now powering Robinhood Chain/Wallet, launched a dedicated points program August 10 for the Robinhood deployment. Points accrue in real time from eligible perps volume, with weekly drops starting ~August 21. Trading through Robinhood Wallet(mobile app) gets a 2x multiplier vs 1x on the standard Lighter web app. Points convert into $LIT from a dedicated ~$11M pool allocated specifically for the Robinhood community.

This is post-TGE incentive farming, not a pre-token program — $LIT already launched December 30, 2025, with Seasons 1 & 2 having already distributed a 25% supply airdrop. Set up a Robinhood Wallet for the 2x multiplier and deposit USDG to trade perps on the Lighter instance.

Some farmers are running hedged strategies (long on Lighter, short elsewhere) to generate points while minimizing directional exposure.

⚠️ Standard perp leverage and liquidation risk applies. Points-to-$LIT conversion rate and pool distribution rules may evolve. Geo-restrictions typical of Robinhood products apply. Hedged multi-venue strategies carry basis risk and added costs. $LIT itself carries normal token price volatility. Genuine volume is prioritized — wash trading and self-dealing are likely filtered.

New Opportunities:

RISEx — Season 1: Ignite Points Live

Next-gen spot and perps DEX on RISE Chain, a high-performance L2 for real-time trading with a fully on-chain order book, backed by Galaxy Ventures with support from Vitalik Buterin and Stani Kulechov. Already processed billions in volume during early access/beta.

Season 1: Ignite distributes 200,000 RISE Points weekly (Tuesdays) — Week 2 saw ~200k across ~5,889 accounts. Weightings change weekly to deter gaming, factoring in volume, fees, open interest hold time, and trading quality rather than pure spam. Referrers earn 10% of the points their referred users earn. Early Season 0 traders already got retroactive points plus ongoing Genesis Pool bonuses.

Track at rise.trade.

⚠️ No token or TGE confirmed — points are explicitly framed as a path toward potential future distribution, nothing guaranteed. Weekly scoring changes mean pure volume farming can underperform if the algorithm favors hold time or fee quality. Standard perp leverage risk. New L2 smart-contract risk. Competition for the fixed weekly pool grows as more users join.

Airdrop Claims 🪂:

Solstice Finance ($SLX) — Season 2 Claim & Vesting Choice

Solana yield layer offering USX (stablecoin) and eUSX (yield-bearing version from delta-neutral strategies), backed by Deus X Capital and Galaxy Digital. Season 2 Flares points have concluded — claims and vesting registration are live now.

You choose between two vesting paths: 6-month (faster unlock, but requires maintaining your Season 2 TVL baseline) or 9-month (no TVL requirement, longer unlock, applied automatically if you don’t choose). Selection window closes around August 18 — miss it and you default to the 9-month plan. Small claim fee (~$1); very small allocations may not be claimable.

Season 3 is already live for anyone who wants to keep earning — same core mechanics through December 1, 2026.

Official link: claim.solstice.finance/flow?season=s2.

⚠️ 6-month vesting can be forfeited if TVL drops below the required baseline — understand the commitment before choosing. Delta-neutral YieldVault strategies carry execution risk despite the “institutional-grade” framing. $SLX price volatility and unlock-related sell pressure apply. Geo-restrictions may exist. Only use official claim.solstice.finance and app.solstice.finance.

Airdrop News/Updates

Saturn Credit ($USDat) — Season 1 Wrapped, Season 2 Live

Digital credit protocol issuing USDat and yield-bearing sUSDat, backed by exposure to Strategy’s STRC. Season 1 Gravity Points concluded (snapshot ~August 8) — final allocations publish this week on the app. 1M+ Gravity holders get a 20% Orbital boost once confirmed.

Season 2 Orbital Points is live, running ~4 months or until $1B TVL. Highest multipliers on Curve LP, Pendle LP/YT, and PancakeSwap active-range LPs — double points currently live on Monad Pendle markets. Check standing at app.saturn.credit.

Official link: app.saturn.credit

⚠️ No token launched — the foundation has only indicated it “may” allocate up to 5% of a future governance token to Gravity participants, contingent on a successful launch that isn’t guaranteed. Yield depends on $STRC/MicroStrategy dividend health. Not available to US or EU/EEA users. Unstaking queues can constrain exit liquidity. Points carry no guaranteed monetary value.

Arc — Circle’s L1, Mainnet September 16

Circle’s institutional L1 uses USDC as native gas with sub-second finality — backed by an exceptional validator lineup (BlackRock, Visa, DTCC, Mastercard) and a $222M presale at $3B FDV led by a16z. Public testnet is live with 100+ builders on private mainnet. Public Mainnet launches September 16.

No open retail points program — this is a heavily institutional-tilted launch. What you can actually do is participate in the testnet for potential future consideration, and claim any available Arc Pass (Founder/Builder Passes, automatically airdropped, claimable until mainnet) before September 16.

Official blog link: https://www.arc.io/pressroom/circle-announces-founding-validator-cohort-and-major-integrations-for-arc-ahead-of-september-16-mainnet-launch

⚠️ Farming surface for retail users is thin given the institutional focus — treat any potential community allocation as speculative and low-probability. Token already had a large private presale (740M tokens at $0.30) — public tokenomics and community distribution details not fully released. Mainnet is still ~5 weeks out with execution risk remaining.

⚠️DISCLAIMER NOTICE⚠️ A note before the next section:

• New protocols often carry the most attractive airdrop odds, early TVL, thin points competition, and generous multipliers. But that same immaturity is exactly what makes them risky.

• Smart-contract exploits, depegs, insolvent yield strategies, and outright project failure happen disproportionately in a protocol’s first 3–6 months (we’ve seen it play out with Dango and others in this very letter). Nothing here has a multi-year track record.

• Treat every entry below as capital at risk, not “free points”. Size positions like you could lose them entirely, and never deposit more than you’re fully prepared to write off.

New Opportunities:

Nado — Weekly Cash Rewards + Points on Ink L2

CLOB DEX on Ink (Kraken’s L2) unifying spot, perps, and money markets under one margin account for high capital efficiency, built by a team with Kraken and Vertex Protocol roots.

Two reward streams live simultaneously: a weekly $100K USDT0 cash pool ($50K unlocked from week start, another $50K scaling with platform volume) split proportionally by maker/taker volume and open interest, plus an ongoing Season 2 points program (open access, no invite needed) earned via trading, NLP vault deposits, referrals, and xStocks collateral multipliers.

No native $NADO token confirmed — points are oriented toward the broader Ink ecosystem airdrop. Onboard at app.nado.xyz, bridge to Ink, and focus on maker volume plus maintaining open interest to capture both the cash pool and points efficiently.

Official link: app.nado.xyz

⚠️ ⚠️ Perp trading carries real leverage and liquidation risk. Points-to-token conversion mechanics and size aren’t fully public — this is positioning for a broader Ink ecosystem airdrop, not a confirmed Nado token. Cash pool’s second $50K only unlocks with high platform volume, so individual share can dilute if volume spikes without your participation scaling proportionally. Ink L2 smart-contract risk applies.

Arcus — Confirmed Token, No Details Yet

Self-custodial DEX built by the dYdX Labs team in partnership with Robinhood Crypto, running on Robinhood Chain. Live spot trading of tokenized equities (TSLA, NVDA, etc.) at 0% fees, plus perps up to 50x currently in beta with waitlist rollout. ~$18-20M TVL with real organic volume ($94.5M perps + $40.8M spot in one recent week).

The dYdX Foundation confirmed Arcus will have its own token, separate from $DYDX, with an allocation reserved for the dYdX community. No ticker, supply, or TGE date announced yet.

Position now: trade spot Stock Tokens at app.arcus.xyz (spot volume counts toward perps waitlist rank, backdated), and join the perps waitlist at waitlist.arcus.xyz — ranking factors include prior perps volume (dYdX, Hyperliquid, Lighter), referrals, and linking multiple wallets, including your dYdX v4 wallet.

Official link for waitlist: app.arcus.xyz

⚠️ ⚠️ Token details are completely unknown — size, mechanics, vesting, and TGE date all unconfirmed. Not available in the US, UK, Canada, and other restricted jurisdictions. Perps still gated in beta. Ignore any unofficial “Points Epoch” or “$ARC dashboard” posts — these are scams. Only use official app.arcus.xyz and waitlist.arcus.xyz.

Airdrop Claims 🪂:

Cap Labs ($CAP) — Homestead Stabledrop

Cap Labs is a private credit protocol where deposits mint cUSD, stakeable as stcUSD for yield. Homestead points program ended July 23 — no new season planned. This is a claim, not a farm.

Eligible if you held Pendle YT positions without matching PTs and took losses. Claim at stabledrop.caplabslimited.com, open 90 days, closes November 1, 2026. No vesting.

Note: plain cUSD holders and LP providers are generally excluded — check eligibility carefully.

Official link: cap.app

⚠️ Final size was smaller than earlier expectations, and eligibility is narrow. Standard credit protocol risk applies to the underlying platform. Claims close November 1 — don’t miss it.

GRVT ($GRVT) — TGE Complete

Hybrid derivatives exchange on ZKsync, TGE completed July 30. 280M $GRVT airdrop pool (28% of supply). Chosen multiplier plan (1x immediate, 2x/4x deferred) determines release — tranches over 12 months, 30-day claim window each.

Check allocation and claim at grvt.io. Appeals open if you believe there’s an error.

⚠️ Vested over 12 months, not immediately liquid. New token volatility expected. Some community pushback on allocation size.

⚠️DISCLAIMER NOTICE⚠️ A note before the next section:

• New protocols often carry the most attractive airdrop odds, early TVL, thin points competition, and generous multipliers. But that same immaturity is exactly what makes them risky.

• Smart-contract exploits, depegs, insolvent yield strategies, and outright project failure happen disproportionately in a protocol’s first 3–6 months (we’ve seen it play out with Dango and others in this very letter). Nothing here has a multi-year track record.

• Treat every entry below as capital-at-risk, not “free points”. Size positions like you could lose them entirely, and never deposit more than you’re fully prepared to write off.

Airdrop News/Updates

Apyx ($APYX) — Season 2 Snapshot ~10 Weeks Remaining

Dividend-backed stablecoin protocol issuing apxUSD/apyUSD, collateralized by preferred equity like Strategy’s $STRC(which is also a risk if STRC depegs). Season 2 Pips run until the October 11 snapshot; TGE October 13. 6% of supply allocated this season (11% combined with Season 1). 1 point = 1 point, no changes.

Earn Pips by holding apxUSD/apyUSD, Pendle YT/PT/LP positions (usually highest multipliers), or providing liquidity.

Check current rates at app.apyx.fi/rewards.

⚠️ apxUSD backing depends on $STRC/MicroStrategy dividend health — a prolonged BTC downturn can weaken this and pressure the peg. Yield is variable. Capital is at risk while farming, not free points.

Saturn Credit ($USDat) — Double Points on Monad Pendle

Structured digital credit protocol issuing USDat and yield-bearing sUSDat, backed primarily by Strategy’s $STRC preferred equity(which is also a risk if STRC depegs). Double points live now on the January 14, 2027 USDat/sUSDat Pendle markets on Monad. Gravity Points (Season 1) ends August 8 or at $500M TVL — potential up to 5% governance token allocation if a token launches. Orbital Points (Season 2) starts right after.

Highest multipliers typically on Pendle YT/LP positions (20–38x range). Check current rates in the Gravity/Orbital docs. Not available to US, EEA, or other restricted users.

Official link: app.saturn.credit

⚠️ No token or TGE confirmed — allocation is only potential. Yield depends on $STRC/MicroStrategy dividend health. sUSDat unstaking has a days-long queue. Geo-restricted access.

Tria ($TRIA) — August Summerfest 2x Points

Tria is a self-custodial neo-finance app combining Visa card spending (150+ countries, 130M+ merchants), perp trading via Hyperliquid and Decibel integrations, and yield — all from one cross-chain balance. Backed by $12M in funding with Polygon, Wintermute, and Polychain among participants. $TRIA is already live (TGE February 2026); this is ongoing Season 3 rewards, not a pre-TGE points farm.

• Points are earned through real usage: card spend (1–1.5 pts per $1 depending on tier), trading volume, and referrals (10% of eligible activity).

• August Summerfest runs through August 31 — 2x points on eligible card spend and trading, plus 2x cashback caps, applied automatically with no opt-in.

• Points accumulate toward Mystery Boxes at milestones, opening monthly starting end of August.

Download Tria on Mobile from the link in their X bio

⚠️ Points value is undefined until Mystery Boxes open — no fixed conversion rate. This requires genuine spending or trading activity with associated fees, not passive capital deposit. KYC typically required for card issuance. Standard self-custodial and app smart-contract risk applies. Time-limited campaign ends August 31.

New Opportunities:

Resupply ($RSUP) — Resupply Summer Incentives

Resupply, a subDAO of Convex Finance and Yearn Finance, lets you supply yield-bearing stablecoin collateral (Curve LlamaLend, Fraxlend) to borrow reUSD while collateral keeps earning underlying yield. “Resupply Summer” just launched three new LlamaLend v2 markets — sfrxUSD (Frax), sDOLA (Inverse), syrupUSDC (Maple) — alongside a multi-round Convex rewards campaign (started round 128) to grow TVL and borrowing.

This is post-TGE emissions farming, not a points-to-airdrop play — $RSUP is already live. Supply the new collateral types, borrow reUSD, and earn underlying yield plus RSUP emissions.

Stake RSUP for a share of protocol revenue (paid in reUSD) plus governance power, or deposit reUSD into the Insurance Pool for additional RSUP and revenue share. Check resupply.finance for current rates on the new markets.

Official link: resupply.finance

⚠️ Resupply suffered a ~$9.6M exploit in June 2025 — recovered with treasury and Yearn/Convex support, but the history is real and worth weighing. reUSD carries peg risk despite redemption mechanisms. RSUP has no max supply — ongoing inflation can dilute value over time. Incentive APR is variable and campaign-dependent. Leverage/liquidation risk exists on stable-stable loops even if lower than volatile-asset positions. Small, volatile token market cap means position sizing matters.

Airdrop Claims 🪂:

Paradex ($DIME) — TAP Claim (~1 Week Left)

Zero-fee perps/options/spot DEX with ZK-encrypted trading on its own L2, incubated by Paradigm. TAP claim (1% of $DIME to affiliates/referrals) closes ~August 4 — check app.paradex.trade/referrals/tap if you have referral history. Main genesis airdrop (~25% supply) already distributed in March.

Ongoing — XP Season 3: 4M XP weekly among ~3–4k active wallets, earned via trading volume, OI time, maker activity, and referrals. Zero-fee trading makes it low-friction to farm, but no confirmed token allocation tied to it yet.

Official link: app.paradex.trade

⚠️ TAP claim matters if you have affiliate/referral history — otherwise ignore. Season 3 XP has no confirmed token allocation — currently a loyalty metric with possible future value. $DIME has traded soft since TGE (~$0.01, well below March ATH). Leverage on perps/options carries liquidation risk. Only use official app.paradex.trade.

Lombard Finance ($BARD) — Season 3 Lux Claim

Bitcoin liquid staking protocol backed by Polychain Capital ($16M seed), with Franklin Templeton and OKX also participating. Season 3 Lux Points (18 March – 23 July, now closed) allocated 1% of $BARD supply to active LBTC/BTC.b deployers — passive holding didn’t count this round.

Claims are open now at claim.lombard.finance across Ethereum, Sui, and Solana wallets. Minimum claim reported around 15 $BARD. Unclaimed tokens typically return to the ecosystem fund after ~90 days.

For ongoing yield without waiting for a new season: some products like Bitcoin Earn now pay liquid $BARD rewards every 8 hours via Merkl instead of season-end distributions.

Official link: claim.lombard.finance

⚠️ This is a claim window, not a new farming opportunity — Season 3 is closed to new participants. No Season 4 announced yet. $BARD has seen significant drawdown from ATH (~$0.11–0.13 currently, ~$40M market cap). Bridge and multi-chain smart-contract risk applies across supported networks. Missed claims are permanently lost after ~90 days. Only use the official claim.lombard.finance.

⚠️DISCLAIMER NOTICE⚠️ A note before the next section:

• New protocols often carry the most attractive airdrop odds, early TVL, thin points competition, and generous multipliers. But that same immaturity is exactly what makes them risky.

• Smart-contract exploits, depegs, insolvent yield strategies, and outright project failure happen disproportionately in a protocol’s first 3–6 months (we’ve seen it play out with Dango and others in this very letter). Nothing here has a multi-year track record.

• Treat every entry below as capital-at-risk, not “free points”. Size positions like you could lose them entirely, and never deposit more than you’re fully prepared to write off.

Airdrop Updates & Opportunities

Ondo Perps — Ondo Points Live

Perpetual futures platform for U.S. stocks, ETFs, and commodities with up to 20x leverage, powered by Ondo Finance’s RWA infrastructure. Distinctive feature: tokenized Ondo Stocks (SPYon, QQQon, etc.) can be used as productive collateral for positions. Available to non-US users only.

Ondo Points program is live, managed by the Ondo Foundation — 5M fixed points distributed weekly, weighted by trading volume and open interest. First distribution already occurred based on activity since June 2.

Check your balance at app.ondoperps.xyz/points. On top of points, weekly USDC trading reward pools are running (~$150–175K recently, with allocations to specific markets like GOOGL and TSLA), plus a 10% referral fee share.

Points are a separate Ondo Foundation loyalty mechanism (not a dedicated Perps token) redeemable in periodic claim windows — no fixed conversion rate confirmed. The fixed weekly pool means earlier consistent activity captures a larger relative share before more traders join.

Official link: ondoperps.xyz

⚠️ Standard perp risks apply — 20x leverage on equities/commodities means small adverse moves trigger liquidation quickly. Not available in the US, Panama, or other restricted jurisdictions. Points have no confirmed conversion rate or guaranteed token allocation — value depends entirely on future Foundation claim windows. Platform is relatively new with liquidity still developing versus established perp venues. Treat points as a bonus on top of actual trading P&L, not the primary reason to trade.

SushiSwap Perps ($SUSHI) — Season 1 Ends July 31

Sushi Perps (v2, powered by Hyperliquid) Season 1 points program closes July 31 — only ~3 days left. Points earned from perp trading volume convert proportionally into $SUSHI post-deadline. 8 tiers with multipliers — reaching a higher tier retroactively applies that multiplier to all points earned during the entire season, so a late volume push can still meaningfully boost your total. Early traders retain a lasting multiplier advantage.

Check your current tier and points at sushi.com/perps immediately. If you already trade perps or can run volume without heavy losses, this is the last window to maximize final points and push into a higher tier before the deadline.

⚠️ Extremely short window — not worth starting from zero with large size unless you have a low-cost or profitable strategy already. Perp trading carries leverage and liquidation risk. Exact $SUSHI allocation size for Season 1 hasn’t been detailed publicly beyond “points convert into $SUSHI.” Expect high competition in the final days as volume chases the deadline. Watch @SushiSwap for the official snapshot/claim announcement after July 31.

Urgent — Not an Airdrop, Withdrawal Warning ⚠️

Dango — Project Shutting Down ⚠

No token was ever launched, and the previously teased $DNG TGE (which had a live points program feeding into a rumored ~50% community allocation) will not happen. All points farming is cancelled — nothing converts, nothing claims.

If you have any funds, positions, or vault deposits on Dango, act now:

1. Close positions and withdraw immediately — don’t wait for the rush.

2. Trading halts Wednesday, July 29, 12:00 UTC — remaining positions force-close at oracle price, DLP vaults unlock, balances convert to USDC in spot accounts.

3. Full L1 shutdown is Wednesday, August 13, 12:00 UTC — any deposits still remaining after this get refunded to your original Ethereum deposit address.

Airdrop Claims

GRVT ($GRVT) — TGE Delayed to July 30⚠️

TGE delayed from July 21 to July 30 to allow simultaneous launch across multiple exchanges — listings will be announced as agreements finalize. More exchanges from day one means better liquidity and price discovery, which is generally positive for token holders long-term.

No new action needed if you already chose your vesting option before the July 17 deadline. Just update the date and watch for exchange listing announcements.

⚠️ Another delay is testing community patience — some users are already rotating activity elsewhere. If you chose 1x immediate vesting, your tokens are simply pushed back 9 days. Nothing changes about your allocation or vesting choice.

Airdrop Registrations

Plasma One (XPL) — Core Tier Deadline Tomorrow

Last day to claim the Core tier is July 21. Core gives 3% base cashback + 5% on AI spend, reduced fees, a ChatGPT Go subscription, and priority support — accessible via annual subscription or locking XPL for 12 months, with promotional access available for eligible new users making qualifying deposits.

Claiming Core signals early committed usage, which often matters for retroactive or loyalty-based rewards. Download the Plasma One app, verify your account, and secure the tier before the cutoff.

Official link: plasma.org/download/TRLLNS

⚠️ Deadline is tomorrow — time-sensitive. Higher tiers require locking XPL for 12 months, creating illiquidity. XPL is already distributed and trading — this is a utility/cashback play, not a new airdrop. Cashback value depends on XPL price at redemption.

Airdrop Updates & Opportunities

Hylo (XP Points — Solana)

Hylo is a Solana-based dual-token protocol offering hyUSD (stablecoin backed by SOL LSTs) and xSOL/xBTC (leveraged exposure without liquidation risk). Audited by OtterSec and Accretion Labs with zero critical findings in the V2 audit.

Backed by Robot Ventures, Colosseum, and Solana Ventures. The XP points program runs in seasons with capital × time as the core mechanic — no obvious sybil exploits.

XP rates per dollar per day: xSOL/xBTC earns 20x (highest, prioritize this and enter at the right price), hyUSD and hyloSOL+ earn 5x, eHYUSD and hyloSOL earn 1x.

Crowns earned at tier milestones carry forward as permanent boost multipliers across seasons, compounding for long-term holders. Stack every active boost (currently 5% + 5% + 10% + 5% in private beta) and deploy Hylo assets across partner protocol integrations for extra XP on top.

Official link: hylo.so/leverage

⚠️ No confirmed $HYLO token or airdrop — points are speculative. hyUSD is backed by SOL LSTs meaning a sharp SOL drawdown directly pressures the collateral ratio. xSOL carries up to 4x leverage — absorbs all volatility and amplifies downside in crashes. Novel oracle-free pricing mechanism is untested in severe market stress. Short track record (~1 year). Only use official hylo.so domain.

Markets.xyz — Boosted kPoints

Markets.xyz is Kinetiq’s 24/7 trading frontend on Hyperliquid (US500, QQQ, USTECH with up to 25x leverage) — live for months, not newly launched. kPoints Season 2 distributes 800K weekly (Thursdays, Tuesday snapshots) toward a final snapshot on September 29, distribution October 1.

Earn by staking HYPE → kHYPE → vkHYPE or trading perps on Markets, with boosted kPoints for MKTS listings. Referrals scale 1–15% of fees based on staked KNTQ.

Eligibility note: The genesis KNTQ airdrop required signing Foundation Terms by Nov 21, 2025 — that window is closed and locked some users out, so the next airdrops are probably going to have another limited registration period. Confirm your standing before farming heavily. The kPoints formula is kept deliberately private.

Download on mobile and farm: https://markets.xyz/mobile-app

⚠️ Incremental multiplier, not a standalone airdrop — only worthwhile if you’re already trading these markets. Perp trading carries liquidation risk. kPoints value is unconfirmed until any Kinetiq token event.

Airdrop Claims

Jupiter ASR Q2 2026 — 50M JUP Claim Open

Jupiter’s Q2 Active Staking Rewards are claimable now at jup.ag/rewards/asr-2026-q2. 50M JUP distributed to users who staked an average of ≥50 JUP during April 1 – June 30, 2026. Rewards automatically add back to your staked position (not liquid) — compounding your stake rather than sending tokens to wallet. Claim window open until October 8, 2026.

For Q3 positioning: keep staking JUP and participate in DAO votes — next campaign period runs July 1 – September 30, 2026.

Official link: https://jup.ag/rewards/asr-2026-q2

⚠️ This is a distribution event, not a new farming opportunity. Unclaimed rewards after October 8 revert to the community treasury. Only eligible if you averaged ≥50 JUP staked during Q2. Only use the official jup.ag/rewards/asr-2026-q2 link.

Airdrop Registrations:

GRVT ($GRVT) — Airdrop Registration Live

GRVT airdrop registration is live at grvt.io/exchange/reward-portal — connect your wallet and choose your vesting option before July 17, 2026. Three options available:

• 1x — Full allocation at TGE (July 21), immediate liquidity

• 2x — Double allocation, locked 4 months (~November 2026)

• 4x — Quadruple allocation, locked 8 months (~March 2027)

Higher multipliers only make sense if you’re strongly convicted on GRVT long-term and comfortable with the lockup duration.

Official link: app.grass.io/dashboard

⚠️ July 17 deadline is hard — missing it likely defaults you to the base option. TGE dumps are common on new token launches; the 4x multiplier means nothing if the token drops 75%+ post-launch. Locked positions carry full price volatility risk during the vesting period. Only use the official grvt.io/exchange/reward-portal.

Airdrop Updates & Opportunities

Lighter ($LIT) — Robinhood Chain Integration

Lighter is a ZK-rollup perps DEX now live on Robinhood Chain as the first “Lighter Domain” — a dedicated instance with custom execution, sequencing, and liquidity tailored to the Robinhood ecosystem. Robinhood Wallet users can now trade perpetuals and Stock Tokens directly through this integration using USDG as the quote asset. Robinhood invested in Lighter and routes perps through this integration, giving it strong retail distribution from day one.

The farming angle is concrete: Lighter committed $11M in $LIT to the Robinhood community pool, with points converting directly to $LIT.

Trade via Robinhood Wallet for a 2x points multiplier (vs 1x on the native web app) — focus on volume in perps and tokenized stock markets. This stacks well with broader Robinhood Chain activity alongside Arcus and Meridian, building on-chain history across the entire new ecosystem simultaneously.

Official link: robinhoodchain.lighter.xyz/trade/LIT

⚠️ Jurisdiction restrictions apply — not available everywhere, similar to other perps platforms. New chain instance means liquidity and spread depth are still building. Lighter has historically filtered wash trading and sybils in past points programs — keep activity organic. Leverage trading carries liquidation and funding rate risk. Exact points-to-$LIT conversion rates and timelines depend on Lighter’s terms.

Airdrop Claims

GRVT ($GRVT) — TGE Confirmed July 21

$GRVT TGE is officially set for July 21, 2026 — roughly 2 weeks away. Season 2 allocation sits at 18% of the 1B fixed supply (up from 12% in Season 1). Expect claim details, vesting schedule, and allocation announcements in the coming days.

With TGE this close, the final Season 2 push is still worth it for anyone already positioned: trade volume, hold open interest, provide liquidity, and use referrals. Boosted markets: TradFi pairs at 3x, alts at 2x. Delta-neutral approach (hold OI on GRVT, hedge elsewhere) remains popular for collecting funding payments plus points with minimal directional risk.

⚠️ TGE is imminent — last chance to accumulate Season 2 points before snapshot locks. Claim mechanics and vesting schedule not yet announced. $GRVT is a membership/utility token with buybacks rather than direct yield — value depends on platform adoption post-launch.

Airdrop Checkers

Grass Stage 2 — USDC Checker Live

Grass Stage 2 rewards checker is now live at app.grass.io/dashboard/allocation — payouts are in USDC (not $GRASS token), with claims opening July 22. Check your allocation now before the claim window opens.

Community reaction is negative — most users are reporting very small allocations ($31, under $1, or even $0) after months of running nodes.

Official link: https://app.grass.io/

⚠️ Stage 2 appears to be a final small payout rather than a meaningful reward. No clear Stage 3 or ongoing major opportunity indicated. Claims open July 22 — check your allocation now but manage expectations significantly.

Airdrop Updates & Opportunities

Arcus (rebranded from dYdX Labs)

Arcus is a new DEX built by the dYdX Labs team in partnership with Robinhood Crypto, launching on Robinhood Chain (Arbitrum Orbit L2). Core product: 24/7 spot trading of 95 tokenized stock tokens (equities, commodities, indices, crypto) with 0% fees, plus perpetual futures up to 50x leverage on stock tokens currently in beta. Deep institutional liquidity from Robinhood and top market makers. The original dYdX Chain continues operating separately — Arcus is a new project by the same team.

No $ARCUS token yet, but dYdX founder Antonio Juliano confirmed a portion of future Arcus tokens will be allocated to the dYdX community, with priority for users who previously traded, staked, validated, or built on dYdX.

Best current positioning: join the perps waitlist immediately at waitlist.arcus.xyz — position is determined by past on-chain perps volume (dYdX, Hyperliquid, Lighter, etc., with RWA volume as a bonus) and referrals of validated traders. Multiple wallets can be connected to aggregate history.

Official link: https://arcus.xyz/

⚠️ Strong community backlash from $DYDX holders who feel the team is abandoning the original protocol — $DYDX dropped sharply on the news. Tokenized stocks carry regulatory and securities risk; restricted in US, Canada, UK, and other jurisdictions. No confirmed tokenomics, vesting, or airdrop details yet. No official points program — third-party airdrop guides are speculative. New chain risk on Robinhood Chain.

Meridian (formerly The Prediction Markets on Ethereal) — Robinhood Chain Launch

Meridian has rebranded from Prediction Markets on Ethereal and launched on Robinhood Chain as a day-one partner. If you had funds in the old Prediction account, migrate immediately at app.ethereal.trade/prediction — perps balances don’t need migration yet. Fee-free prediction trading is now live, and a $5,000 prize pool runs for combo traders (predictions + perps) until July 15.

Early activity on Robinhood Chain projects is worth tracking — day-one users on new chains have historically been well-positioned for ecosystem incentives when points or reward programs launch.

Official link: https://app.meridian.xyz/predict

⚠️ Prize pool ends July 15 — tight window. Migrate Prediction funds immediately to avoid any access issues. Robinhood Chain is still new with evolving smart-contract risk. No confirmed points or airdrop program yet — early activity is speculative positioning only.

Grove Finance ($GROVE) — Token Distribution Live

$GROVE token distribution is now live — supply USDS on sky.money to start accruing GROVE rewards automatically, on top of the normal Sky Savings Rate.

A large portion of GROVE held by Sky is being distributed to USDS suppliers on a multi-year schedule, with the heaviest allocations front-loaded in the first two years. Remaining GROVE after that is reserved for future rewards decided by Sky Governance.

Go to sky, supply USDS, and GROVE accrues automatically. No complex loops, no points conversion — direct token rewards.

Official link: app.sky.money/?network=ethereum

⚠️ Future reward amounts beyond the initial schedule depend on Sky Governance decisions. Token liquidity and price discovery are still early. Opportunity cost applies — USDS could be deployed elsewhere for potentially higher yields.

Airdrop Claims

Tread.fi ($TREAD) — Token Announced

$TREAD has a fixed supply of 100M tokens on Ethereum (no mint function, no inflation). 50% reserved for community growth, with a meaningful portion allocated free to past tread.fi users as a retroactive reward. No public sale — distributions will come via a subsidiary. Eligibility criteria, timing, and exact details will be shared in the next few weeks.

If you’ve used tread.fi’s algorithmic trading terminal or agentic trading features, you may qualify. Stay active, check your activity history at tread.fi, and follow @treadfoundation exclusively for official eligibility announcements.

Official X: https://x.com/treadfoundation

⚠️ No confirmed snapshot date, eligibility criteria, or allocation sizes yet. Only act on information from the official @treadfoundation account — scams are already appearing. Standard token launch risks apply.

Zest Protocol ($ZEST) — Vesting Schedule Updated

Two important changes for Season 1 Points holders. First, a hard claim deadline: claim your initial TGE tranche by July 15, 2026, 00:00 UTC or it gets recycled into the community treasury for future seasons — not burned, but lost for you specifically.

Second, the vesting schedule has been consolidated: months 4, 5, and 6 (originally 0.3% each) are now merged into one single 0.9% release at month 6, timed to align with the upcoming Stacks Bitcoin Staking and Bitcoin Collateral Vaults launches.

Everything else stays the same — total allocation, per-wallet calculations, Genesis NFT multipliers, Open Position Bonus, and the 5% per-wallet cap. Check your claim status now before the July 15 deadline.

⚠️ July 15 deadline is hard — unclaimed tokens are forfeited to the treasury with no individual recovery. Consolidated month 6 unlock means a longer wait for a larger single release rather than gradual unlocks. Standard BTC collateral and Stacks L2 risks apply to underlying positions.

Airdrop Updates & Opportunities

Theo Network — thUSD Points Program

Theo launched a points campaign tied to thUSD, their gold-backed yield product generating real returns from gold leasing and CME gold futures basis trading (a ~$247B open interest market).

Three new vaults at launch: 3-month Core (6.5% APY + 2x points), 6-month Core+ (7.2% APY + 4x points — the highest multiplier available), and 6-month Boost (11% APY + 2x points, capped at $5M initially).

The 6-month Core+ vault is getting the most attention since it combines solid yield with the highest points multiplier — a clean way to maximize airdrop exposure while still earning real underlying yield rather than pure emissions.

Speculated TGE around December 2026 lines up with the 6-month lock duration. A referral program is also live for additional rewards.

⚠️ 3 or 6-month lock-ups mean capital is illiquid for the duration. Smart-contract risk plus RWA counterparty risk on the gold-backed underlying. Points programs can dilute and airdrop size/timing remains unconfirmed. Boost vault has a hard $5M cap and may fill before you deposit.

Additional risk context worth flagging: thUSD holds both thBILL and thGOLD while running a gold basis trading strategy on CME — US Treasuries, gold reserves, and gold futures contracts are all offchain with zero on-chain visibility.

Theo currently has no monthly or weekly third-party attestation report (they have a self-maintained dashboard and are building a new one with Accountable, but offchain attestation is not yet live).

Additionally, Theo is the sole party that can initiate and process redemptions, meaning the peg is entirely under Theo's control with no arb mechanism to restore it independently. Current redemption fees: thUSD at 5 bps, thBILL at 15 bps, and CME/Gold redemption likely higher.

Citrea (CTR) — ctUSD Vault Snapshot & Rewards Timeline

Snapshot is July 1, 2026 — your CTR allocation depends on your vault position at that moment. Vault launched May 7 with an $18M cap that filled fast. Rewards land July 7, and the vault continues operating post-unlock.

If already deposited, no action needed beyond holding through July 1. Closing phase, not a new entry point.

Official link: https://citrea.xyz/

⚠️ Cap already filled — no new deposits are mentioned as possible at this stage. Snapshot timing means last-minute position changes before July 1 directly affect your final allocation. Watch official @citrea_xyz for post-unlock vault details.

Grove Finance — Points Program Ended

The Grove Points program has officially concluded. No new points farming available. Grove Savings remains live for those who want to keep earning the Sky Savings Rate.

Watch @grovedotfinance and campaign.grove.finance for any future reward claim or airdrop announcement — snapshot has likely already been taken, with distribution details expected in the coming weeks.

Official link: grove.finance

⚠️ Farming window is closed — nothing actionable right now. No confirmed claim date or token reward yet.

Base App — Desktop Launch

Base App (Coinbase/Base’s trading and social app) is now live on desktop at base.app. Current limitation: sign-in is email-only with no wallet import option yet, meaning desktop starts fresh and can’t pull over existing EVM wallet history or activity from mobile. The team plans to add wallet import later.

The app has built-in rewards worth tapping into now: hold USDC for ~3–4% APY (accrues daily, paid weekly, region-dependent), earn a share of swap fees through referrals, and general Base chain trading activity has historically positioned users for ecosystem incentives on top of the upcoming native token from Base, which the team is clearly hinting.

Desktop access makes higher-volume trading more comfortable, which helps if you’re tracking any activity-based rewards.

Start with a small test deposit at base.app, hold some USDC for the APY, and use referrals if you have an audience.

⚠️ No wallet import yet — desktop activity is disconnected from your existing mobile history for now. USDC APY rates can change and may require linking a Coinbase account for US users. Creator/content reward programs via Zora have been scaled back in 2026. Test with small amounts while the desktop experience matures.
