Pyth Retrospective Airdrop
November 2023 oversaw the launch of the the Pyth Network Retrospective Airdrop, the largest cross-chain airdrop of its kind, covering over 90K eligible wallets across 27 blockchains in its initial phase. As of today, more than 51K users have claimed over 163M PYTH Tokens (65% of the total airdrop).
The first phase of the airdrop program oversaw the distribution of PYTH Tokens to DeFi participants, from EVM to Cosmos, Move to Solana, who interacted with these Pyth-powered applications. Active community members from the Pythian community also received allocations. You can read more about the eligibility requirements in this guide.
This second phase of the airdrop program involves the distribution of PYTH Tokens to more than 160 decentralized applications using Pyth Data. These applications rely on Pyth’s price data to secure their protocol operations, typically for transactions, asset valuation, and on-chain settlement.
