Blast, a promising Ethereum layer-2 scaling network developed by Pacman, the founder of NFT marketplace Blur, has finally
unveiled the launch date for its highly anticipated BLAST token airdrop. The airdrop, initially expected in May, has been rescheduled to take place on June 26. In an effort to compensate for the delay, Blast has decided to increase the allocation for the airdrop.
Prior to the token launch, Blast intends to conduct two additional distributions of Blast Gold points. These points function similarly to airdrop points and are specifically designed for decentralized app (dapp) creators who are building on the network. Numerous dapps have already distributed their awarded Blast Gold points to users, including Fantasy Top, a viral NFT game centered around Crypto Twitter influencers.
The upcoming token airdrop will be divided equally, with 50% of the tokens allocated to developers through Blast Gold and the remaining 50% distributed to early users. This includes individuals who bridged funds to the network before the Blast mainnet went live at the end of February. Over $2.3 billion worth of cryptocurrencies have been bridged over with the hope of earning points that would contribute to their share in the forthcoming airdrop.
The Blast network is built with a strong emphasis on user incentives, following a similar approach as its predecessor, Blur. Popular decentralized applications (Dapps) like Fantasy Top, in particular, have gained attention in the Crypto Twitter community in recent weeks, resulting in a surge in NFT trading volume. Additionally,
Pacmoon, a memecoin driven by viral content creation incentives, has experienced continuous growth, reaching a new all-time high price just last week.
