According to the post, individuals eligible for the airdrop will receive 5% of the total token supply and can check their eligibility May 22 onwards. Users have over 7 days to check eligibility and make claims. 
Moreover, the claim window would be open for 1 month. However, the window hasn’t opened yet.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="strong-how-to-unlock-community-incentives-strong">How to Unlock Community Incentives</h3> 
Individuals supporting and contributing to ETH’s growth will be prioritized for the upcoming airdrop. 
“Individuals who are Taiko proposers, provers, developers, GitHub contributors, bridger, or a community member are eligible,” the tweet added.&nbsp; 
Users’ activities will be weighted and offered with associated scores, individuals holding at least the minimum score will fit the eligibility criteria. Once done, individuals can claim the tokens within 1 month once the claim window opens.&nbsp; 
Moreover, the Taiko team requested the community to be aware of the scams and use the official website for claims and eligibility checks.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
In April, Taiko launched its Hekla testnet with EIP-4844 which doesn’t require a Layer 1 node to run a Taiko Layer 1 node. The network also adjusted the Layer 2 block gas issuance to 60 Million gas per 12 seconds. &nbsp;
