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.

Hyperliquid’s Hypurr NFTs Hit $76K Floor Price, But Hacker Steals 8 for $400K Profit

Hyperliquid’s Hypurr NFTs Hit $76K Floor Price, But Hacker Steals 8 for $400K Profit

A threat actor stole eight Hypurr NFTs worth approximately $400,000 within hours of the collection’s launch by compromising wallets that received the airdropped tokens on Hyperliquid’s HyperEVM layer. Blockchain investigator ZachXBT first reported the sophisticated theft targeting early Genesis Event participants who had opted to receive the free digital collectibles.Source: ZachXTB The Hyper Foundation distributed 4,600 unique cat-themed NFTs on September 28 to reward early supporters from the November 2024 Genesis Event. The collection immediately achieved a floor price of $68,900, with total trading volume reaching $45 million within 24 hours on OpenSea. At the time of writing, the floor price has surpassed $70K. The most expensive sale involved Hypurr #21, which featured rare “Knight Ghost Armor” traits, selling for 9,999 HYPE tokens, worth approximately $470,000. Some NFTs had traded over-the-counter for $88,000 before the official launch through DripTrade’s collateralized pre-sale system. The theft compounds security concerns plaguing Hyperliquid’s ecosystem following the $773,000 HyperDrive exploit and $3.6 million HyperVault rug pull within the same week. The rapid succession of attacks has intensified scrutiny of security practices across projects building on the decentralized exchange platform. Digital Cats Command Six-Figure Prices Despite Global Economic Pressures The Hypurr collection features generative art depicting cartoon cats with various traits, including sunglasses, wizard robes, and armor elements. Distribution allocated 4,313 NFTs to Genesis Event participants, 144 to the Hyper Foundation, and 143 to core contributors, including developers and artists. According to OpenSea data, over 1.3 million HYPE tokens were traded in the past 24 hours, equivalent to $61 million at current prices. The collection maintained 92.8% of supply held by 4,270 unique owners. Community reactions varied widely, with some celebrating life-changing windfalls while others criticized the wealth disparity. Creative director Alex Obymuralex praised the Hypurr design language as “timeless” rather than trend-driven, noting the collection’s simple forms and saturated colors lower intimidation barriers for mainstream adoption. He argued that recognizable silhouettes and joyful palettes create lasting brand equity beyond speculation cycles. Early adopters who participated in November’s Genesis Event received the NFTs at no cost beyond their initial platform engagement. The event centered on the launch of Hyperliquid’s native HYPE token and HyperEVM programmability layer. Notably, DripTrade’s over-the-counter system enabled pre-launch trading through collateralized agreements requiring sellers to fulfill transactions within seven days of receiving NFTs or forfeit deposited security. This mechanism allowed price discovery even before official distribution. Security Breaches Threaten Ecosystem Credibility The Hypurr NFT theft follows three major security incidents targeting Hyperliquid projects within one week. HyperDrive DeFi lost $773,000 through router contract vulnerabilities that enabled arbitrary function calls, while HyperVault developers executed a $3.6 million exit scam after ignoring community warnings about fabricated audit claims. Previous exploits include the March JELLY token manipulation, which cost $13.5 million, and the “ETH 50x Big Guy” trader, who netted a $1.8 million profit while causing $4 million in vault losses. This incident prompted a reduction in maximum leverage limits from 40x to 25x for major cryptocurrencies. Competition intensifies as ASTER DEX processes over $13 billion in daily perpetual futures volume, compared to Hyperliquid’s reduced activity. ASTER’s Trust Wallet integration provides 100 million users with direct access to perpetual contracts, challenging Hyperliquid’s market dominance. Arthur Hayes exited his entire HYPE position with a $823,000 profit, citing the massive token unlocks worth $11.9 billion that were set to start on November 29. He recently polled followers about re-entering after HYPE dropped 23% weekly to $35.50. However, community members have proposed blacklisting Hayes from purchasing HYPE, with some labeling his trades as the “ultimate sell signal.” Despite security challenges, Hyperliquid launched its USDH stablecoin, generating $2.2 million in early volume, while Native Markets secured the issuance mandate through a competitive governance voting process. The platform also activated HYPE/USDH spot trading following Native Markets’ commitment to stake 200,000 tokens for a period of three years. HYPE traded up 4.65% following the Hypurr launch, reaching $47.14 as community enthusiasm temporarily overshadowed ongoing security concerns and competition threats across the broader ecosystem

Aster CEO responds to "concentrated token holdings": Most are airdrops or platform user deposits

Aster CEO responds to "concentrated token holdings": Most are airdrops or platform user deposits

PANews reported on September 29th that Aster CEO Leonard, in an interview with Mable, founder of the social protocol Trends, addressed the issue of on-chain data suggesting that a small number of addresses hold 96% of ASTER tokens. Leonard stated that his team does not control all tokens in these wallets. Based on token economics, approximately 80% of tokens are locked on-chain and can be monitored. Addresses holding airdropped tokens account for approximately 40% of the total. Other top addresses also include Aster's spot deposit addresses. Holders may be storing tokens in platform addresses with the intention of selling them at any time, given the significant price increase. Currently, only approximately 10% of the tokens are in circulation, including the 1:1 redemption share for existing users (approximately 10%) and the initial airdrop (approximately 8%). Information on subsequent linear releases has been published and can be verified on-chain. While the contract address appears to control all tokens due to the concentration of transactions, many of them actually belong to users. In addition, Leonard revealed that YZi Labs is the only private equity investor in Aster. Although their shareholding ratio is not high, their support for the company is huge and they have no intention of cashing out. From TGE to restrictions, Aster's performance in the BNB ecosystem has proven its value. Even without forced lock-up, YZi Labs has no motivation to dump the market. Moreover, the tokens they can get only come from a small part of the 5% team allocation, because they invested in equity, not the tokens themselves.

Hypurr NFTs Sells For Over $400,000 Following Airdrop From Hyperliquid

The post Hypurr NFTs Sells For Over $400,000 Following Airdrop From Hyperliquid appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Early adopters of the perpetuals-focused layer-1 blockchain Hyperliquid were rewarded handsomely on Sunday after the Hyper Foundation finally airdropped the much-awaited Hypurr non-fungible token collection.  At the time of writing, the Hypurr NFTs have a current floor price of around 1,458 Hyperliquid (HYPE), or $68,700, according to OpenSea data. However, there have already been eye-watering sales well above that range. The Hypurr #21 NFT with the extremely rare “Knight Ghost Armor” and “Knight Helm Ghost” traits went for 9,999 HYPE worth $467,000 on Sept. 28.  Demand was also so high before launch that certain NFTs were sold for as much as $88,000 via OTC desks earlier this month, per DripTrade data. Such trades were possible through DripTrade’s OTC system, which enables buyers and sellers to agree on a set sale price before launch. The seller must then fulfill the trade within seven days of receiving the NFT, or forfeit collateral put forward as part of the agreement. The whopping $467,000 sake of Hypurr NFT #21. Source: OpenSea Amid a cost-of-living crisis globally, the novelty of receiving a digital cat picture for free, worth more than some people’s annual salary, was not lost on the crypto community. “CT is really a special place in hell. Average person struggling to get by or buy groceries and you have people posting their $50,000 hyperliquid cat NFTs they got for free,” said X user MoonOverlord.
