#MajorAirdropWatch #Retroactive Airdrops
Uniswap introduced a new unique concept of airdrops by retroactively distributing their new governance token UNI to early Uniswap users that interacted with the protocol through trading or liquidity provision. Every wallet that interacted with the protocol before the snapshot is able to claim at least 400 UNI. Some users made millions of free money from the Uniswap airdrop. Those so called retroactive airdrops gained traction and several DeFi protocols soon followed. Following Uniswap’s pioneering distribution, retroactive airdrops have evolved to include:
Protocol usage rewards
Early adopter bonuses
Governance participation incentives
Cross-chain activity recognition
Historical engagement rewards
Popular examples include:
dYdX’s trader rewards
Arbitrum and Optimism retroactive airdrops
Uniswap’s UNI distribution
Instadapp’s governance token
Furucombo’s early user rewards
How to find potential retroactive airdrops early? You want to know what procotols do not have any governance token yet and could be worth an interaction to be counted in for some potential future airdrop? Stay tuned, we will launch a Retroactive DeFi Airdrops section soon!
