Avail, a high-profile blockchain data availability (DA) project, has confirmed details of its upcoming token airdrop after a leaked screenshot of the eligibility criteria circulated on social media platform X last week.
According to a blog post from the Avail team, 354,605 wallet addresses are eligible to claim 600 million tokens in their "unified airdrop." The beneficiaries are widely distributed, but the team says they must be blockchain ecosystem developers, testnet contributors, Rollup users (Polygon, zkSync, Starknet, Optimism, and Arbitrum), Polygon PoS stakers, or Avail community members who have made significant contributions to the ecosystem.
Beneficiaries can verify token claims from now until May 4th, when tokens will be distributed when Avail DA launches.
Last year, Avail gained attention for developing its DA solution, which helps move data processing off-chain. DA solutions have received a lot of attention in the past few months, including the Celestia project that went live in October last year and Eigenlayer’s EigenDA project that went live last week.
In February of this year, Avail shared details of two other core products the team is building: Avail Nexus is an infrastructure layer that connects different Rollups together through the Avail ecosystem; and Avail Fusion contributes crypto assets such as Ethereum (ETH) or Bitcoin (BTC) to the security of Avail.
“The Unified Airdrop is a force that brings different communities together, rewarding developers, governance contributors, technical educators, Rollup users, stakers, and other valuable contributors from multiple blockchain communities,” Avail wrote in a blog post.
