We are very pleased to announce that the claiming period for the #IOST L1 exclusive airdrop has officially begun. This milestone marks a critical step for IOST towards transitioning to a Layer 2 network, while also demonstrating our commitment to rewarding community members who have long supported IOST in a measurable way since going live.

If you held at least 1,000 IOST tokens on the original L1 chain at the time of the snapshot, you meet the airdrop criteria and can claim your share in the airdrop allocation. This is the best window for early IOST supporters to realize long-term value and participation rewards.

After the launch of the L1 airdrop claiming period, IOST will also introduce a new StakeDrop event: this incentive program aims to reward users who stake IOST on the BNB chain. StakeDrop offers flexible locking options and a reward multiplication mechanism, aiming to precisely filter and incentivize high-net-worth users and long-term participants closely tied to the sustainable development of the IOST 3.0 ecosystem. Complete details and participation guidelines will be announced soon.
