Hey Square community 💛 Some of you might be wondering, "Why didn’t I receive the airdrop?" 🤔
Let’s go over some possible reasons to help clarify things: 🔍✅👇👇
1️⃣ Did not subscribe to BNB Simple Earn products during the specified period.
For example, for the $GPS token, users who subscribed their BNB to Simple Earn (Flexible and/or Locked) and/or On-Chain Yields products from 2025-02-19 00:00 (UTC) to 2025-02-24 23:59 (UTC) will receive the airdrop distribution.
Similarly, for $SHELL token, users who subscribed their BNB to Simple Earn (Flexible and/or Locked) and/or On-Chain Yields products from 2025-02-14 00:00 (UTC) to 2025-02-18 23:59 (UTC) were eligible for airdrop distribution.
#Binance uses historical snapshots of user balances at random times after the announcement to determine rewards. This ensures that the airdrops are "retroactive," rewarding users based on their past behavior and holdings.
2️⃣ You may be in a country or region where this product is not available.
Please note that you must be from an eligible jurisdiction to participate in HODLer Airdrops. You can check the list of countries or regions that are not allowed to participate in this program on the official Binance 📌Announcement
3️⃣ Lastly, another reason some users may not have received the new token could be due to compliance issues.
