Huma Finance ($HUMA): A PayFi Boost Amid Unlock Waves
Huma Finance continues making waves as a key player in the emerging PayFi landscape—blending real-world payments with DeFi. On August 26, 2025, the protocol triggered a major token unlock, releasing around 378 million HUMA tokens—roughly 23.4% of its circulating supply, valued between $9–10 million
This triggered a 14% drop in token price as markets anticipated added selling pressure
Simultaneously, Huma rolled out Season 1 Airdrop claims, with the first batch available August 26 at 13:00 UTC, and a second round scheduled for September 26—based on snapshots taken earlier in the week
The airdrop allocates 2.1% of total supply, rewarding liquidity providers (68%), ecosystem partners (22%), and community members (10%)—plus enhanced staking perks like 10% staking rewards and special “Vanguard” status benefits
Huma’s dual token events—unlock and airdrop—illustrate its growing token economy and the balancing act between managing liquidity and keeping the ecosystem engaged with real utility and governance tools.
