Pyth Airdrop event
Overview
Pyth Network, a decentralised oracle providing market price data, announced a retrospective airdrop of its PYTH token on November 1, 2023, with claiming opening on November 20, 2023 and running until February 20, 2024. The distribution allocated 600 million PYTH — 6% of the 10 billion total supply — to launch and community initiatives, with eligibility based on on-chain activity across 27 blockchains and more than 200 applications that use Pyth data. Tens of thousands of wallets qualified across three categories: DeFi users who interacted with Pyth-powered applications, active community members, and the applications themselves. A second phase later extended allocations to over 160 integrating dapps.
