Interlink NFT claim: this is how many people are researching right now the campaign redemption that InterLink Network launched to celebrate the first 10 million users (the “Linkers”). But there’s one detail that almost nobody is explaining properly: not every Linker will receive the gift. There are 3 lock conditions that determine who gets on the list and who stays out—and at least one of them can catch you by surprise even if you’ve been using the app for months.
This article brings together, in a single place, everything that InterLink has officially confirmed about this campaign: the gifts, the lock conditions, the step-by-step redemption guide, and the two separate bonuses that almost nobody knows exist.
What is this celebration of the 10 million Linkers
InterLink Network hit 10 million users — called "Linkers" within the ecosystem — and created a thank-you campaign for those who helped build this base early on. The campaign has its own official page, separate from the main app, and includes both the standard redemption (for any Linker who meets the requirements) and two additional separate bonuses reserved for specific situations.
It’s worth starting with this because it’s the most common mistake: treating the whole campaign like "one single gift" and thinking that having an account is enough to receive. In practice, they’re different rewards with different rules for each one.
The 3 standard redemption gifts
Anyone who meets the general requirements (explained in the next section) receives:
1. 1 ITL — InterLink’s native token, directly to your wallet.
2. One collectible NFT "10M Linkers" — an exclusive item for this celebration that won’t exist after the campaign closes.
3. "First 10M Linkers" badge on your profile — a permanent identity mark showing that your account was part of the original base of 10 million.
Worth noting: so far, InterLink has not confirmed any ITL listing on any exchange. If you’re joining the campaign already expecting to "sell the ITL later," that’s not a fact yet — it’s only a possibility, and treating it like a certainty is the kind of expectation that tends to cause frustration later.
The 3 hurdles that decide who gets it (and who doesn’t)
Here’s the point that the enthusiasm around the campaign usually doesn’t explain properly: there are 3 requirements, and they apply at the same time. Failing just one removes you from the list of the 3 standard gifts.
1. Verification Step 1 (KYC) completed, with an account created before 01/08/2026.
This is the most definitive of the three — you can’t go back in time and change the account creation date. If your account is newer than that, this specific gift is no longer within your reach, no matter what you do now.
2. Minimum of 10,000 ITLG at the moment the distribution happens.
This is the requirement that confuses people the most. InterLink hasn’t announced the exact distribution date yet — it only said it would check your ITLG balance at the moment it happens, not today. In other words: having 10,000 ITLG right now doesn’t guarantee anything if that balance drops before the official check, and not having 10,000 ITLG today doesn’t disqualify anyone who still has time to accumulate until then.
3. Share the official post celebrating the 10 million Linkers.
The simplest of the three, but also the easiest to forget — it’s a manual action; it doesn’t happen automatically.
Step-by-step to redeem
Redemption happens directly on the campaign’s official page, within the InterLink ecosystem itself. A few technical points worth knowing before you try:
- The NFT doesn’t enter your wallet by itself. After redeeming, you need to manually paste the Contract Address and the NFT ID into the wallet you use — if you skip this step, the NFT will be marked as "redeemed" in InterLink’s system, but it won’t show up visually for you.
- The ITL takes 1 to 3 days to arrive. It’s not instant — if you redeem and don’t see the balance right away, the reason is usually just this processing window, not an error in the process.
- Check the 3 requirements before trying to redeem, not after. Going to the redemption step without meeting one of the three just to find out something is missing is wasted time.
Bonus 1: the exclusive InterLink x OKX NFT
This one isn’t one of the 3 general requirements — it’s a separate task with its own reward: an exclusive NFT created in partnership between InterLink and the OKX exchange.
The official path is:
1. Download the OKX app (or skip this step if you already have an account there).
2. Complete the OKX KYC verification — or, if your OKX account is already verified, use the "Login with OKX" option inside the InterLink app itself, without needing to open the OKX app separately.
3. After connecting the two accounts, paste the "authorize key" into the indicated field inside InterLink to verify and unlock the NFT redemption.
Notice that this bonus doesn’t depend on ITLG or the account creation date — it only depends on you having (or creating) a verified OKX account and connecting the two platforms.
Bonus 2: the InterLink VIP Item (not for everyone)
This is the bonus that creates the most confusion, because it seems like part of the standard package and it isn’t. InterLink’s VIP Item is sent only to "selected collaborators who made significant contributions and supported InterLink throughout the journey" — the official wording from the campaign itself.
This means that meeting the 3 general requirements (KYC before 01/08, 10,000 ITLG, sharing the post) doesn’t automatically give you rights to this item. It exists and is real, but it’s reserved for a much more restricted group of people that InterLink has already identified using other internal criteria that aren’t publicly disclosed.
Final deadline: October 12, 23:59 UTC
This deadline applies to the standard redemption gifts. After it, according to the official announcement, what hasn’t been redeemed may no longer be available — with no extension announced so far.
Convert this UTC time to your time zone before leaving it for the last minute: 23:59 UTC on October 12 lands around 8:59 PM on the same day in Brasília time (UTC-3).
Is it still worth joining now?
If you’re not a Linker yet, the short answer is: the 3 gifts in this specific campaign depend on an account created before 01/08/2026 — so, technically, creating an account now won’t qualify you for the standard redemption in this round. What still makes sense is to start accumulating ITLG and do the KYC as soon as possible, because InterLink itself treats this celebration as a milestone that repeats as the user base grows.
If you’re already a Linker and haven’t checked whether you meet the 3 requirements yet, this is the moment — before the October 12 deadline arrives.
Closing
I recorded a full video showing each of these steps on screen, including the real step-by-step redemption process and how to paste the NFT’s Contract Address into your wallet without making mistakes. To watch, just search "Diovane Lopes" on YouTube.
If you want to join InterLink using my personal code (82020888) when you sign up, I’d be happy — but the most important thing here is: check the 3 requirements before October 12, even if you’ve been a Linker for months.
