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.

Yield Hunters Flock to HyperLiquid Staking Ecosytem to Farm Kintetiq’s Airdrop

Yield Hunters Flock to HyperLiquid Staking Ecosytem to Farm Kintetiq’s Airdrop

The post Yield Hunters Flock to HyperLiquid Staking Ecosytem to Farm Kintetiq’s Airdrop appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Kinetiq, a liquid staking protocol built around Hyperliquid’s HYPE token, has seen an explosion of inflows in recent weeks as users pile in to farm the protocol’s airdrop points campaign. Total value locked (TVL) on Kinetiq has jumped from roughly $458 million in mid-July to over $2.1 billion today, according to DefiLlama. While part of the increase can be attributed to a 20% rise in the price of HYPE over the same period, another big driver has been raw deposits. The amount of HYPE staked has climbed from under 10 million tokens in July to nearly 40 million now. Kinetiq’s points program opened mid-July, underscoring that it is driving activity in its ecosystem. Kinetiq Deposits (DeFiLlama) The surge demonstrates the growing influence of Hyperliquid, which is fast becoming a DeFi heavyweight as liquidity, trading activity and staking demand migrate onto its ecosystem. Points programs in particular, where protocols distribute future token allocations to early participants, continue to pull in yield-hungry crypto investors. By staking HYPE through Kinetiq, users not only earn standard staking rewards but also accumulate points toward a potential Kinetiq token airdrop. For many DeFi traders, that double yield opportunity has proven irresistible, some have shared on X.

Joseph Lubin Hints at Linea Holder Rewards After Token Launch

Joseph Lubin Hints at Linea Holder Rewards After Token Launch

The post Joseph Lubin Hints at Linea Holder Rewards After Token Launch appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Joseph Lubin, the founder of Consensys and a key figure behind the Linea blockchain, teased potential future rewards for users who hold on to their tokens.  In an X post on Thursday, Lubin said long-term holders could become eligible for future distributions, including tokens from Consensys and other aligned ecosystem projects. He said that holding tokens signals that the user is a Linea community member and is likely engaged in productive Linea economy activities.  “If we notice, at some date in the future, that you’ve held n LINEA tokens for m days, that just might lead to another token landing in your account,” Lubin wrote, adding that MetaMask and Linea are preparing something together.  Lubin’s comments follow the Linea (LINEA) token generation event (TGE) on Wednesday. The project said 85% of LINEA tokens will go to the ecosystem, while 15% will be allocated to the Consensys treasury.  Linea community members bring up token utility Lubin’s remarks are a direct response to a community member who brought up the issue of the LINEA token’s utility. On X, a user tagged Lubin, urging the team to enable staking and lending.  “Users do not know what to do with the Linea they are holding,” the community member wrote. “Bring Linea lending and or staking platform to make use of Linea.” Another user responded to Lubin’s comments, accusing Linea of being a memecoin. The community member described Linea as a “memecoin,” saying that it has no utility but will give people more tokens to hold.  Meanwhile, other users floated the idea of token buybacks instead of rewarding holders with different tokens. An X user suggested that buyback strategies may be more beneficial if they want users to hold the token longer.  Related: New Ethereum standard aims to set baseline for real-world asset tokenization Linea…

Auditor Flagged Issue Before $2.59M Nemo Hack, Team Admits

Auditor Flagged Issue Before $2.59M Nemo Hack, Team Admits

The post Auditor Flagged Issue Before $2.59M Nemo Hack, Team Admits appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Sui-based yield trading protocol Nemo lost about $2.59 million due to a known vulnerability introduced by non-audited code being deployed, according to the project. According to Nemo’s post-mortem analysis of the Sept. 7 hack, a flaw in a function intended to reduce slippage allowed the attacker to change the state of the protocol. This function, named “get_sy_amount_in_for_exact_py_out,” was pushed onchain without being audited by smart contract auditor Asymptotic. Furthermore, Asymptotic’s team identified the issue in a preliminary report. Still, the Nemo team admits that its “team did not adequately address this security concern in a timely manner.” Deploying new code only required a signature from a single address, allowing the developer to push unaudited code onchain without disclosing the changes. Furthermore, he did not use the confirmation hash provided in the audit for the deployment, breaking the procedure. This is not the first time a hack was revealed to have been easily preventable. The report follows NFT trading platform SuperRare suffering a $730,000 exploit in late July due to a basic smart contract bug that experts say could have easily been prevented with standard testing practices. Related: Bubblemaps alleges largest Sybil attack in crypto history on MYX airdrop Security procedures changed too late The vulnerable code was pushed onchain in early January. The upgrade procedure, which would likely have prevented the unaudited code from being deployed onchain, was implemented in April. Despite the upgrade, the vulnerability had already made its way into the production environment. Asymptotic warned Nemo of the vulnerability on Aug. 11, but the project said it was focused on other issues and failed to address it before the exploit.

Stop airdropping and find a real Web3 job

Stop airdropping and find a real Web3 job

Author: OxTøchi Compiled by Chopper, Foresight News Most of the time, I find myself staring at the screen, scrolling through endless leaderboards or tasks on some "mining protocol." This was exciting a few months ago, but it's different now, and not for the better. I've slowed down on these activities, not because I've lost interest, but because the rewards of such activities have become increasingly disappointing and fraught with uncertainty. Right now, I just want to invest in things that can generate compound interest over time, things where the effort I put in is like accumulating capital. Those who understand will understand. I don’t want to be the kind of person who sighs and groans during the token TGE, and I don’t want to scold the family of the project founder just because things don’t go as expected. It's time for a change of mindset, isn't it? Come to think of it, airdrops are supposed to be surprises, not salaries. But since when have we started planning our lives around a "list of low-participation deals with potential payouts"? Honestly, I've done that myself, and I won't deny it. The small profits I received one after another made me realize that I needed stability. Airdrops can't provide stability, but jobs can, and I'm talking about jobs in the crypto industry. Consider the difference between the two: With a job, you get a monthly salary. You provide value and receive corresponding rewards. You build skills, reputation, and connections that don't fade away with a project. If the project thrives, you grow with it! Even if the project founders make a killing and leave after the token launch, you can still switch jobs. Isn't that better than just praying the team doesn't take away the profits you earned from two years of crazy clicks? What are the jobs in the crypto industry? The best thing about the crypto industry is that as long as you are persistent and have a goal, almost any skill can be monetized. The key here is to "do things that make you happy". Doing what you like will prevent you from getting mentally exhausted. After all, persistence is the core requirement, right? I tend to divide crypto jobs into three categories: Community: administrator, community manager, brand ambassador; Content types: long-form writers, KOLs, research analysts, meme creators, and fun post authors; Technical: developers, engineers, vulnerability hunters, etc. These roles are not "either this or that"; many people are capable of playing multiple roles at the same time. For example, a technical developer might write technical popular science articles or moonlight as a meme creator, both of which fall into the category of content roles. This kind of role overlap is common because the crypto community values engagement, not job titles. How to get into the crypto industry? Improve skills: learn new things and deepen existing professional abilities; Get in early: Get deeply involved in an ecosystem before it explodes; Build your personal brand: showcase your skills online; Leverage your social media accounts: Use your account as proof of work. In this day and age, having an online presence is the most advantageous thing you can do. Share insights, write articles, create memes—just take action and show your work. I've personally seen this method work, and many popular accounts have risen this way. Here are a few examples of new accounts: @0x_scientist: With less than 2,000 followers, he's already landed a content job at Sprout, a personalized revenue strategy protocol within the Fluent ecosystem. @basitweb3: A key figure in the MegaETH ecosystem, he is currently the Chief Science Officer at Nunchi, a yield-generating perpetual contract platform. Basit excels at making complex technical terms accessible. @serrdavee: MakinaFi's community manager and a top author I admire greatly in the community. When I started following him, he only had 5,000 followers. He's a great storyteller. Have you noticed? They're all "authorities" in their respective ecosystems because they've chosen one and dedicated themselves to it until everyone sees them. Another commonality: If you look through their accounts, you can clearly see proof of their work. Treat your social media accounts like a resume! If you want to find a job in the crypto world, you have to put in a lot of effort: participate in activities that can generate compound interest, do more than ordinary people, take the initiative to show yourself, don't just work in vain, and let others see your value. By the way, I didn’t talk much about technical work because I know nothing about technology and really don’t understand things in this area. at last This article is not about telling you to "stop mining airdrops", but rather to let you treat airdrops as a "side job" and focus on things that can bring stability to your life. Many people think that it is difficult to get a job in the crypto industry, but if you blindly believe their words, you can be different.
