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.

Build on Bitcoin Token Rallies on Coinbase Listing

Build on Bitcoin Token Rallies on Coinbase Listing

The post Build on Bitcoin Token Rallies on Coinbase Listing appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The Bitcoin DeFi token is up 25% from its launch price. Despite the crypto market’s woes, newly launched token BOB, from the Build on Bitcoin BTCFi project, is rallying after a Coinbase listing. BOB launched at $0.018, or a $45 million market capitalization on Nov. 20, and is up 25% from its launch price, making it one of the few tokens that are up over the last 24 hours. BOB Chart – CoinGecko Build on Bitcoin is an optimistic rollup chain focused on Bitcoin DeFi (BTCFi). BOB works with DeFi protocols to incubate and launch BTC yield products based on native BTC rather than wrapped BTC alternatives. BTC on BOB is intended to serve as a shared trust layer between traditional DeFi protocols and the Bitcoin blockchain. While the token has done well, some users have voiced concerns over the airdrop. One farmer known as Usopp said, “After having $7000 in @build_on_bob for 1 year. Got in early in May 24 and have accumulated 10M spices in S1 and S2 – I have also accumulated ~6M spices in S3. So if I am not eligible – Idk who is lmfao.” Source: https://thedefiant.io/news/blockchains/build-on-bitcoin-token-rallies-on-coinbase-listing

Crypto Industry Presses Trump for Urgent Regulatory Clarity

The post Crypto Industry Presses Trump for Urgent Regulatory Clarity appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Over 70 crypto organizations request immediate regulatory action from Trump. Letter outlines tax clarity needs, including staking rewards and de minimis rules. Industry seeks DeFi safe harbors and dismissal of charges against Tornado Cash developer. Over 70 cryptocurrency and blockchain organizations have sent a letter to President Donald Trump requesting immediate regulatory clarification across multiple government agencies. The November 20, 2025, letter, led by the Solana Policy Institute, shares specific actions agencies can take to complement legislative efforts. The organizations stated that the Trump Administration and Congress have created opportunities for crypto investors, users, and builders during the first year of the presidency. From the nullification of the IRS Broker Rule and the passage of the GENIUS Act to the rescission of the 2022 Department of Labor guidance on digital assets in 401(k) plans, the industry is working to secure market structure legislation. The letter requests Treasury Department action to revise guidance related to digital asset mining and staking rewards, treating them as self-created property taxed upon disposition.
