Airdrops
Upcoming and live airdrops and token launches: who qualifies, key dates, supply and unlocks, from official project sources. Not investment advice.
Midnight's NIGHT airdrop thaw ends December 4. The last 25% installments are landing now

2026's biggest airdrops: $809 million claimed, 9 of 11 tokens below first close
On-chain data compiled by Bitquery puts 51 large EVM airdrops this year at $809.4 million and 2.02 million claiming wallets. Most claimers moved their tokens within a day, and CoinGecko prices show only Backpack and Espresso above their first daily close.
Backpack gave users 25% of BP and insiders nothing. BP is up 285% from its first close
Backpack airdropped 250 million BP to points holders and Mad Lads owners on March 23, 2026, worth about $57 million at CoinGecko's first daily close. No team or investor tokens unlocked, and the next 37.5% of supply unlocks only when the company hits growth milestones.
MegaETH's MEGA is down 73% since launch. Who really got the 15% 'community' share?
MegaETH launched MEGA on April 30, 2026, after hitting the first of four network milestones. At least a third of its 15% community allocation was sold at auction, MegaETH has not said how much was given away free, and 53% of supply still waits on future milestones.
82,671 wallets claimed Brevis' BREV airdrop. 45% of the claim pot was never collected
Brevis opened its BREV claim on January 6, 2026, after a points campaign, a Kaito leaderboard and a Binance HODLer drop. The Ethereum claim contract still holds 45% of its 20 million BREV, and the token trades about 77% below its first daily close.
Jupuary 2026 never landed: 75% of JUP votes shelved a 700 million JUP airdrop
Jupiter's yearly airdrop was due to start with 200 million JUP in early 2026. Stakers voted on February 22 to park all 700 million tokens in a locked community wallet instead. No new vote has been called since, and JUP now trades about 41% above its close that day.
Polymarket has no POLY token. So why is it still pursuing a POLY trademark?
Polymarket's help center says it has announced no airdrop and no token launch, and that all rewards are paid in pUSD. Meanwhile a February application to trademark "POLY" for crypto token services is still alive, with a reply filed on November 2.
MetaMask's points season ended in LINEA allocations. It has "no plans" for a MASK token
MetaMask Rewards Season 1, from October 28, 2025, to January 23, 2026, gave users above 1,000 points a LINEA allocation. LINEA now trades about 28% below its price on February 23, when MetaMask said the claim window had closed, and the help center says there is no $MASK token plan and no next season, only short campaigns paid in mUSD.
