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.

PepeVandal Launches Presale, Positions Project as “Rebellion” Against Meme Tokens

PepeVandal Launches Presale, Positions Project as “Rebellion” Against Meme Tokens

The post PepeVandal Launches Presale, Positions Project as “Rebellion” Against Meme Tokens appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. PepeVandal, a new digital asset project blending narrative storytelling with gamified participation, has opened its presale for the $PEDAN token. The initiative frames itself as a cultural response to meme coins, using the language of raids, loot, and rebellion to describe a structured model for community engagement. Origins The project’s narrative centers on a character named Pepe, who is depicted as a long-time participant in meme token markets. According to its lore, Pepe invested in multiple presales, endured high transaction fees, and witnessed repeated failures: founders disappearing, communities going silent, and roadmaps abandoned. The conclusion drawn from this story is that meme tokens are not broken by accident but are designed to prioritize hype over substance. PepeVandal emerges from this realization as an organized “rebellion,” symbolized by graffiti imagery and a recurring green “V.” Mechanics of Participation PepeVandal structures its participation model as a loop: Smash → Loot → Share → Repeat. Target Selection: The community identifies a project or sector to “raid.” Raid Activation: Participants stake $PEDAN to join. They also contribute digital content such as memes, graffiti-style posts, and social campaigns. Vault Discovery: At the end of the raid, a vault is revealed. Rewards may include NFTs or tokenized representations of real-world assets such as property, music royalties, or gold. Loot Distribution: Rewards are distributed proportionally among participants who staked $PEDAN during the raid. Those who did not stake cannot claim. Repeat: The cycle restarts with a new raid. NFTs are central to the system’s utility. “Keys” unlock vaults, “Gear” can boost staking returns, and “Relics” can alter governance outcomes. The approach integrates DeFi mechanics into a narrative framework designed to maintain ongoing engagement. Roadmap in Six Acts Rather than a conventional roadmap, PepeVandal outlines six narrative “Acts”: Act I — Spark in the Sewer: The presale launches,…

Cardano Took Years, BlockDAG Has Already Raised $403M. And It Hasn’t Even Launched Yet! Is It The Top Altcoin to Buy Now?

Cardano Took Years, BlockDAG Has Already Raised $403M. And It Hasn’t Even Launched Yet! Is It The Top Altcoin to Buy Now?

Growth patterns in crypto don’t always follow the same path. Cardano followed a deliberate rollout, layering in its features over time and gaining attention for its technical rigor. But this slow-build approach came at the cost of speed in user onboarding and visibility. But BlockDAG is taking a different route entirely. Even before hitting exchanges, the project has drawn in over 312,000 holders and more than 3 million users through its live X1 mining app. The price is locked at $0.0013 for now, compared to the current Batch 30 price of $0.03.  With $403 million already raised and 26.1 billion coins distributed, BlockDAG is proving that network growth doesn’t have to wait for a mainnet launch; it can begin the moment users are given something real to engage with. Tech First, Users Later: Cardano’s Strategy Cardano took a careful, calculated approach to network development. Instead of launching with incomplete tooling or an under-tested protocol, it rolled out in phases: Byron for foundational code, Shelley for staking and decentralization, Goguen for smart contracts, and so on. Each step strengthened the project’s credibility but slowed down mainstream adoption. Even with strong technical reviews and developer trust, it took over two years for ADA wallet counts to jump from around 200,000 to nearly 2.5 million. The increase was real, but the pace was modest, relying on gradual improvements, passive staking rewards, and third-party exchange listings to draw users in. That kind of growth curve is common in crypto: launch the chain, hope for traction, and then layer on incentives. But it also means projects spend their early life waiting for the ecosystem to catch up.  Cardano built well, but the speed of user onboarding was tied to long-term feature activation. Mass usage only started to gain pace once smart contracts and dApp functionality finally rolled out. In the early years, most user activity came from speculation, not interaction. BlockDAG: Users First, Chain Comes After BlockDAG has taken a very different route. Instead of waiting for the mainnet to build a user base, it started building traction during the presale itself. This wasn’t hype for the sake of hype; it was backed by product availability.  The X1 Miner App, already live with over 3 million users, is the backbone of this engagement. It turns mobile devices into crypto participation tools, creating daily tap-to-mine rituals that form habits and community before the coin is even tradable. This kind of engagement loop has driven serious numbers. 312,000+ unique holders, 26.1 billion BDAG coins sold, and $403 million raised, all before launch. There’s no staking reward bait, no post-launch airdrop farm, no listing pump.  The activity is coming from real users doing real things. Combine that with over 19,000 X-series miners shipped globally and a referral network stretching across 130+ countries, and it’s clear that BlockDAG isn’t waiting for a green light to scale. It already has. This pre-launch growth isn’t just a marketing victory; it’s a structural inversion of how crypto networks are built. Instead of hoping that users show up after the tech is done, BlockDAG is building the tech while onboarding the users. By giving people utility on day one, it’s building a foundation that most projects only hope to create years down the line. Tools Already Live Before Launch With the price locked at $0.0013 until October 1st, and a 2,900% ROI since Batch 1, BlockDAG’s momentum is more than cosmetic. It’s financial proof that the market sees value in what’s being built, not just speculative noise. Each component of the ecosystem, from the BlockDAG Explorer to the Dashboard V4, the Academy, and the upcoming TRADEBDAG module, has shipped or is being demonstrated in real-time ahead of mainnet. This isn’t a whitepaper dream. It’s infrastructure forming live, with a global audience actively participating. And with the Singapore BDAG Deployment Event just weeks away, BlockDAG isn’t just preparing for a listing. It’s preparing for activation. Exchanges will open the door, but the foundation, users, miners, visibility, education, and tooling are already built.  By the time trading begins, millions will already be involved, setting a baseline of engagement few projects have seen at launch. Everything is being showcased, tested, and refined in the open, offering full transparency on progress and performance. Looking Ahead Cardano showed that slow, structured development can lead to long-term growth. But BlockDAG is proving that massive adoption can happen before launch when users are given tools that work from day one. Unlike ADA, which saw its growth kick in after staking and smart contracts were introduced, BDAG is scaling ahead of schedule. The metrics say it all: nearly $403 million raised, 26.1 billion coins already out, 3 million users on the X1 app, and a 2,900% ROI from the first to the latest batch. With the price locked at $0.0013, the launch isn’t just approaching; it’s being backed by a fully activated ecosystem.  While others build for future adoption, BlockDAG is already in motion. And that’s what sets this project apart as one of the most watched names in crypto right now.

ConsenSys’ Linea Goes Live With Massive Airdrop, Signaling New Phase For Layer-2 Networks

ConsenSys’ Linea Goes Live With Massive Airdrop, Signaling New Phase For Layer-2 Networks

The post ConsenSys’ Linea Goes Live With Massive Airdrop, Signaling New Phase For Layer-2 Networks appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Sep 10, 2025 at 21:19 // News ConsenSys, the prominent Ethereum software company, has officially launched the token generation event (TGE) for its Layer-2 network, Linea. The launch includes a substantial airdrop of over 9.36 billion LINEA tokens, a move that is expected to not only reward early adopters and developers but also to kickstart a new chapter for the Ethereum ecosystem. The race for Layer-2 dominance intensifies Linea is a zkEVM rollup, a sophisticated technology designed to scale Ethereum by bundling transactions off-chain and then submitting a cryptographic proof of their validity to the mainnet. What sets Linea apart is its compatibility with existing Ethereum applications, allowing developers to seamlessly migrate or build new decentralized applications (dApps) without significant changes to their code. This ease of use is a key factor in attracting projects and users, as demonstrated by the network’s rapid growth since its initial operational launch. The project has an “ecosystem-first” approach, with a significant 85% of the token supply allocated to the community, including a 10% portion fully unlocked for early users and builders. A core element of the token design is its deflationary mechanism. One-fifth of all network transaction fees, paid in ETH, will be burned at the protocol level, with the remaining 80% used to buy and burn LINEA tokens. This dual burn mechanism is intended to create a continuous deflationary pressure on the token supply, while also sending value back to the Ethereum Layer 1, aligning the incentives of both networks. The project’s team has emphasized that the token’s purpose is to fund Ethereum-aligned public goods, further solidifying its commitment to the broader ecosystem. As the race for Layer-2 dominance intensifies, Linea’s TGE and unique design are setting a new standard for how a scaled-up Ethereum can function.…

audit completed and conversion report

audit completed and conversion report

The post audit completed and conversion report appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. TL;DR 1:1 conversion from LEASH V1 to LEASH v2, with V2 tokens pre-minted and held in multisig; any residuals will be burned to prevent dilution. Independent audit completed on token and migrator; the full report will be published at launch on mainnet to ensure maximum transparency (official Shiba Inu blog) (data to be verified, updated September 10, 2025). Roadmap in 3 phases: 1) self-custody and xLEASH/veLEASH programs, 2) LP on V3 pools and new DEX, 3) cross-chain support between L1/L2 (including Base and Solana). Migration windows communicated near the rollout; operational guidelines will be disseminated exclusively through verified channels. Best practice: do not connect the wallet to unofficial sites and ignore alleged “fast track” offers. Overview: What the LEASH v2 Migration Entails The Shiba Inu team has formalized the LEASH v2 migration with a plan designed to maximize security and consistency on‑chain. At the center of the plan is a fixed conversion ratio (1:1) and the use of a multisig that holds the already pre‑minted V2 tokens, thus preventing the creation of new supply during the process. In this context, the operational phases are divided into three steps to give priority to self‑custody holders, protect liquidity providers (LP), and enable future cross‑chain expansion. According to the on-chain verifications conducted by our editorial team updated as of September 10, 2025, targeted checks have been performed on smart contracts and sample snapshots to verify the absence of arbitrary minting functions and the presence of a multisig address that holds the pre-minted V2 tokens. Industry analysts consulted indicate that the three-phase approach is consistent with best practices for migrations involving complex LP positions, reducing operational risk during snapshots. Quick Glossary V1/V2/V3: versions of the token or DEX pools (e.g., Uniswap V2/V3). LP: liquidity provider, who provides liquidity to the pools. L1/L2: base layer…

Linea Token Launches at $500 Million Market Capitalization

Linea Token Launches at $500 Million Market Capitalization

The post Linea Token Launches at $500 Million Market Capitalization appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The Layer 2 blockchain developed by Consensys has launched its long-awaited token and airdrop. More than two years after launching its mainnet, Ethereum Layer 2 network Linea has conducted its token generation event (TGE). LINEA launched today at a $550 million market capitalization, but has struggled so far as airdrop recipients claim and sell their tokens. It’s down 20% so far to a $382 million market capitalization, or a $1.7 billion fully diluted valuation (FDV). LINEA pre-markets on Hyperliquid opened above a $1 billion market capitalization when the TGE was announced, but quickly fell over the following days LINEA Perpetual Chart – Hyperliquid Underwhelming TGEs have become common practice for Ethereum Layer 2s, with tokens such as ARB and OP falling roughly 80% from their 2024 highs, while high-profile Layer 2s that launched in 2024, like ZkSync and Blast, have plunged between 80% and 90% from their highs. Despite its mainnet being live for years, the network struggled leading into the TGE, as it stopped producing blocks for 46 minutes overnight, and many users reported difficulties in claiming their airdrops today. LineaScan Block Production – Wu Blockchain Linea product lead Declan Fox addressed the outage today on X, clarifying that the network suffered a sequencer issue after a “large bundle” transaction occurred, which, when executed in a large enough size, can place incredible strain on a blockchain’s tech stack. As the fervor surrounding the LINEA airdrop cools off, attention is likely to turn towards Linea’s future activations and token emissions, with another 75% of the LINEA supply, worth $1.27 billion, yet to be distributed throughout the ecosystem.

Avantis AVNT token rebounds 78% from bottom driven by strong fundamentals

Avantis AVNT token rebounds 78% from bottom driven by strong fundamentals

The post Avantis AVNT token rebounds 78% from bottom driven by strong fundamentals appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. AVNT posted a 43.3% price increase over the past 24 hours to record a 78% recovery from its bottom, despite continued sell pressure from its recent airdrop. Avantis airdropped AVNT tokens on Sept. 9 at a starting price of $0.488, but immediate selling activity from airdrop recipients seeking liquidity drove the token lower. The sell-off created buying opportunities that smart money traders capitalized on, with Nansen data showing profitable addresses increased AVNT holdings by 20.5% during the past 24 hours. The token reached a daily high of $0.371 on Sept. 10 after bottoming at $0.208 in early trading hours. Base ecosystem leadership The recovery likely reflects Avantis’ dominant position as the largest decentralized perpetuals exchange on Base. According to DefiLlama data, the protocol captured $4.6 billion in trading volume during August, representing 39.3% of all perpetual volume on Base during the month. Base consistently ranks among the top 10 chains for monthly perpetual trading volume in 2025, regularly surpassing $10 billion in trading activity except for May.
