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.

Polygon Extends Gains, Chainlink Eyes $22 Breakout, BlockDAG’s $0.0012 Offer Fuels Buying Frenzy!

Polygon Extends Gains, Chainlink Eyes $22 Breakout, BlockDAG’s $0.0012 Offer Fuels Buying Frenzy!

The post Polygon Extends Gains, Chainlink Eyes $22 Breakout, BlockDAG’s $0.0012 Offer Fuels Buying Frenzy! appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The race for the top crypto performers of 2025 is narrowing, and three names are pulling ahead: Polygon (POL), Chainlink (LINK), and BlockDAG (BDAG). Polygon’s ZK-rollup innovation is reshaping Ethereum scalability, positioning it as a long-term winner in the Layer-2 sector. Polygon (POL) price momentum continues to build as ZK-rollups slash gas fees and attract institutional adoption. Meanwhile, Chainlink (LINK) short-term price movements keep traders alert as LINK flirts with the $22 breakout level, backed by growing integration into major financial data systems. But it’s BlockDAG that stands out as the most disruptive player in the mix. With over $420 million presale, EVM compatibility, and a confirmed $0.05 listing, BDAG isn’t just competing, it’s leading. While Polygon and Chainlink refine existing models, BlockDAG is building the next one, making it arguably the best crypto right now for exponential upside. Polygon’s zkEVM Rollups Expand Ethereum Scalability Zero-knowledge (ZK) rollups are fast becoming Ethereum’s strongest weapon against congestion and high gas fees. By processing transactions off-chain and verifying them on Ethereum, they boost speed and cut costs, a major leap for scalability. Polygon, one of the early adopters, is leading this evolution. Ethereum Layer 2 networks now secure nearly $49 billion in total value, with ZK-rollups taking the lion’s share. Polygon’s zkEVM alone hosts around 45,000 dApps, handles up to 16 million daily transactions, and processes trades at a fraction of Ethereum’s cost. With rising adoption and shrinking token reserves on exchanges, long-term investors see potential in POL. While $15 might not happen overnight, a move beyond $0.75 in the coming months could set the tone. If the next Ethereum wave is powered by ZK-rollups, Polygon may be at its core. Chainlink Slips Below $22, Is a Breakout on the Horizon? Chainlink (LINK) is showing a short-term pullback as market volatility increases,…

Analysis: Cryptocurrency saw $380 billion wiped out in a single week, with about $131 billion coming from altcoins

Analysis: Cryptocurrency saw $380 billion wiped out in a single week, with about $131 billion coming from altcoins

PANews reported on October 14th that according to data from 10x Research, of the $380 billion in market capitalization wiped out during this crypto market crash, approximately $131 billion came from altcoins. This crash has raised questions about the future of the altcoin ecosystem. Traders and market makers see the structural support for these tokens eroding, with buyers shrinking and risk aversion rising. The unprecedented speed and scale of this event may mark a decisive break from the frenzied era of 1,000% surges without reason. Morten Christensen, a trader who runs AirdropAlert.com, said: "The problem with altcoins is that they can indeed rise more, but they can also fall 50% in a day or 90% in a week. At the end of this cycle, when the possibility of an end is becoming increasingly likely, I will not bet my portfolio on this game." John Todaro, an analyst at Needham & Co., said: "These assets in particular have taken on huge risks, as we saw last weekend, but have generally underperformed large-cap crypto assets, stocks and gold. In short, the risk is significantly higher for less reward." Given the scale of the losses suffered by the day trading community, Wintermute CEO Evgeny Gaevoy was blunt: "The altcoin market will shrink."

Aster has opened the airdrop claim in the early morning. Previously, due to the wrong time zone setting, the claim time was accidentally advanced.

PANews reported on October 14th that Aster stated on the X platform that an internal review determined that the unexpectedly early claiming time was due to a time zone error. To ensure fairness, airdrop claims have been opened earlier for all eligible users. The updated claim schedule is as follows: ASTER airdrop claims will open at 19:00 UTC on October 13th (03:00 Beijing Time on October 14th). Transaction fee refunds will be processed after claims open and must be completed by 12:00 UTC on October 14th (20:00 on October 14th). The multiple changes to the second phase airdrop schedule have caused inconvenience to users, and a comprehensive internal review will be conducted to ensure such issues do not recur.

Ethena Holds $0.58 Base, Tron Nears Breakout, and BlockDAG Activates TGE Code Ahead of Genesis Day!

Ethena Holds $0.58 Base, Tron Nears Breakout, and BlockDAG Activates TGE Code Ahead of Genesis Day!

The post Ethena Holds $0.58 Base, Tron Nears Breakout, and BlockDAG Activates TGE Code Ahead of Genesis Day! appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto News Explore how Ethena stabilizes its price base, Tron strengthens its DeFi and cross-chain footprint, and BlockDAG’s rank-based TGE system rewards early buyers before listings begin! In a week where trading sentiment remains volatile, Ethena (ENA) and Tron (TRX) have emerged as two of the top crypto performers with renewed investor attention. ENA’s momentum is being fueled by a balanced mix of speculation and protocol stability, while TRX continues to gain ground through network expansion and cross-chain adoption. These moves underscore how layer-1 and synthetic asset ecosystems are reshaping the mid-cap crypto landscape. Yet, as both assets make their short-term gains, BlockDAG (BDAG), the $420M+ presale giant, is preparing for a more significant milestone: the activation of its TGE code and the run-up to Genesis Day on November 26. With verified miner deliveries, audits, and a global community behind it, BlockDAG represents more than a trading story; it’s the infrastructure play investors are watching. Ethena’s Technical Setup Signals Steady Upside Ethena (ENA) is demonstrating notable recovery momentum, supported by steady network engagement and renewed market positioning. Analysts tracking ENA price prediction models suggest a stabilization phase near $0.58, where the token has formed consistent demand zones. Should buyers defend this base, upside targets between $0.72 and $0.85 become viable in the short term. This resilience stems partly from Ethena’s innovative synthetic dollar mechanism, which maintains yield efficiency while managing volatility exposure. Investor sentiment toward ENA remains cautiously optimistic; liquidity data points to gradual accumulation, while derivatives volume confirms renewed interest in mid-cap DeFi exposure. While traders assess these technical zones, Ethena’s performance also highlights a broader appetite for utility-focused assets. However, as projects like BlockDAG build verified utility beyond trading speculation, ENA’s immediate appeal remains technical, not infrastructural, leaving a gap that BDAG continues to close through tangible execution…

Monad (MON) Airdrop: All You Need to Know as Date Approaches

Monad (MON) Airdrop: All You Need to Know as Date Approaches

Monad (MON) is a high-speed layer-1 blockchain that is compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). The blockchain aims to tackle a bottleneck problem that has plagued the Ethereum network – scalability. Launched in 2022, Monad is on the mission of bringing all the benefits of Ethereum, but this time, much faster. The development team behind the project has announced a MON airdrop for the Monad community on October 14th. The airdrop has sparked a massive buzz within the crypto community. This article discusses everything you should know about the L1 blockchain, its airdrop, and how eligible users can claim their MON assets. Understanding Monad Monad is a blockchain network that leverages the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), the underlying technology upon which Ethereum was built. The L1 blockchain is built by Monad Labs. Behind Monad Labs are former Jump Trading employees, Keone Hon (CEO) and James Hunsaker (CTO), and former Bank of America employee Eunice Giarta (COO). The team has raised large amounts in funding from investors like Paradigm and Galaxy Digital. This shows that big players in the crypto industry believe in its potential. It also forged various partnerships to grow its presence. What exactly is Monad trying to achieve? It is aiming to fix the issues that have hindered Ethereum from scaling massively. Admittedly, Ethereum has pioneered the growth of smart contract-enabled crypto projects. Still, it struggles to facilitate fast and cheap transactions. Presently, it processes approximately 15 transactions per second (TPS). This figure is a far cry from blockchains like Solana and BNB Chain. Monad addresses this drawback through two integrations: Parallel Execution and Superscalar pipelining. EVM blockchains like Ethereum are slow because they use sequential execution. The parallel execution is a game changer. Solana, for instance, uses the parallel execution to attain a TPS of around 1,000 and a block time of approximately 0.4 second. Monad uses parallel execution to facilitate similar transaction speed and block time. As a result, Monad users spend near-zero gas fees. Monad’s superscalar pipelining entails grouping on-chain tasks and executing them in parallel. To illustrate, suppose a laundryman has four loads of clothes to wash, dry, fold, and store. The usual thing to do would be to complete the process for the first load before proceeding to the next. However, this process would slow down the entire process. An efficient approach is to commence washing the second load of clothes when the first load is drying (the second stage). Then, the third load commences when the second load is drying and the first load is being folded. The blockchain’s development team uses this analogy to tackle matters such as state storage (MonadDB), transaction processing (asynchronous execution), and distributed consensus (MonadBFT). While at it, Monad offers complete EVM interoperability, meaning it works with the same tools, wallets, blockchain explorer, and smart contracts that Ethereum uses. As a result, developers who already build on the Solidity-focused Ethereum can easily migrate to Monad without changing anything to their existing DeFi protocol. Monad launched its public testnet in February 2025. This means that users can try out the network, report bugs, and test new features before the official mainnet launch. For instance, users can swap tokens, use NFT platforms like Monadverse, and deploy smart contracts. Those interested in decentralized finance (DeFi) can even stake, provide liquidity, lend, and borrow cryptocurrencies on Monad-based decentralized exchanges. As of the day before the airdrop, the blockchain remained in its testnet phase. Still, the development team disclosed that the public mainnet will be deployed before the end of 2025. What is the MON Token? MON is the native cryptocurrency for the Monad ecosystem. It has a fixed total supply of 100 billion tokens. The crypto asset has yet to be launched as of the time of writing. Also, the project has not released details about the coin’s utility, tokenomics, or other necessary details. Still, the project’s native coin will potentially play key roles in driving more engagements with the blockchain. For instance, MON will be used to settle gas fees on transactions executed on the blockchain. It could also be staked to protect the network, become a validator, and maximize yield. The blockchain’s team could also leverage MON for on-chain governance, enabling holders to vote on proposals that govern how the network is geared. Holding and using MON might even qualify you for future bonuses or incentives within the ecosystem. The MON Airdrop The Monad team revealed that the MON airdrop will commence on October 14th, 2025. Presently, details like who will receive the coins and how much each person will receive are not yet known. This means we don’t yet know exactly how many tokens will go to testnet users, developers, or community members. Even before the airdrop, excitement is already building. On October 8th, 2025, the decentralized trading platform Hyperliquid listed MON-USD perpetual contracts. This way, perp traders can take long or short positions on MON in the pre-market stage. Since trading of the perp contract was priced at $0.13, industry leaders projected MON’s fully diluted valuation (FDV) to be around $13 billion, based on an estimated 100 billion total token supply. While this figure is only speculation, it shows how much interest the crypto world has in Monad’s upcoming token. The project’s popularity and the strong reputation of its backers have made it one of the most talked-about airdrops of 2025. How to Claim MON Airdrop Having confirmed that you’re eligible for the MON airdrop, here’s a simple guide to claim your coins: Set Up a Compatible Wallet To use Monad’s public testnet and eventually claim your tokens, you’ll need a compatible crypto wallet. Examples of compatible wallets include MetaMask, Phantom, and Trust Wallet. Open Monad’s Airdrop Portal The next step is to open the official airdrop claim page, which goes live on October 14th by 13:00pm UTC. Once you’re on the website, connect your wallet to confirm your eligibility. Claim MON Airdrop The final step is to claim the MON airdrop. To enable this, users may have to pay minimal gas fees. The Future of Monad For a blockchain still in testnet, Monad has shown remarkable ecosystem growth. With its airdrop only hours away, the crypto community remains curious about how many of the MON coins will be distributed to eligible wallet addresses. In a case where a huge allocation of MON total supply is distributed to airdrop beneficiaries, and these tokens are unlocked immediately, the digital asset could see a rough start. This is because, historically, airdrop beneficiaries often rush to sell their holdings to cash in profits. Time will tell if the project will introduce a measure to tackle this hurdle. Looking forward, Monad could debut a dedicated decentralized autonomous organization (DAO). Through this, users can vote on proposals and other decision-making matters involving the blockchain. We could also see developers behind popular DeFi projects launch on the Monad blockchain. Already, the stablecoin-focused decentralized exchange Curve Finance has partnered with Monad. More may join the L1 blockchain in the future. Conclusion Monad is fixing one of Ethereum’s biggest problems. It harnesses parallel execution to make its blockchain more scalable. It is safe to say that the network’s incoming MON airdrop has earned it even more audiences. This article discussed how to claim the coins. Ensure you digest the information to guarantee a seamless airdrop claiming process. The post Monad (MON) Airdrop: All You Need to Know as Date Approaches appeared first on CoinTab News.
