Major Airdrop Updates: Drift Protocol's Fuel Snapshot and LayerEdge Claims Take Center Stage

Overall Summary: Airdrop discussions this period highlight the highly anticipated Drift Protocol ($DRIFT) snapshot, LayerEdge claim experiences, and evolving eligibility mechanics for Towns and Nation airdrops. Community sentiment is mixed, with rumors swirling about timing and reward structures.

Popular Topics:

• Drift Protocol FUEL ($DRIFT): Drift completed its official FUEL points snapshot on June 2, 2025, marking a key milestone for its second major airdrop (reference Tweet). Community excitement is strong amid clarity around eligibility, with anticipation for the claim page to go live soon.

  • Tasks:
    1. Ensure FUEL points were accrued prior to the snapshot (ref).
    2. Monitor for airdrop claim page updates.

• LayerEdge Airdrop / EDGEN: The LayerEdge airdrop claim is now live, with EDGEN tokens actively trading on several exchanges (reference Tweet). Participants note high eligibility cutoffs and some disappointment with low reward value, resulting in mixed reactions.

  • Tasks:
    1. Claim EDGEN tokens on the official claim page.
    2. Check eligibility status, especially if near the cutoff (ref).

• Towns Protocol ($TOWN): Towns reveals a two-snapshot system for its $TOWN airdrop, with a snapshot taken April 10, 2025, and another planned closer to the delayed airdrop distribution (reference Tweet). Both snapshots influence eligibility, and the airdrop was postponed beyond Q2 2025.

  • Tasks:
    1. Ensure wallet activity is captured in both snapshots.

• S-Token Airdrop ($S): The $S airdrop adopts a phased distribution approach—25% of allocations will be claimable immediately, with the remaining 75% vested as tradable NFTs across 270 days (reference Tweet). Early claiming will incur burn penalties.

    1. Plan claims according to vesting rules to avoid burns.

• Nation Token: Following community feedback, the Nation airdrop pool was tripled by increasing claimable percentages from 0.5% to 1.5% (reference Tweet).

• Rumor: For Towns Protocol, there is ongoing speculation about airdrop timing following the delay announcement.
