Airdrop

An Airdrop is a distribution of free tokens to a community, typically used as a marketing tool or a reward for early protocol adopters and testers. In 2026, the "points-to-airdrop" model has matured into merit-based incentive programs that utilize Sybil-resistance and Proof-of-Humanity to filter out bots. Airdrops remain a primary method for decentralized governance (DAO) bootstrapping. Follow this tag for the latest on retroactive rewards, eligibility criteria, and how to participate in the most anticipated token distributions in the ecosystem.

Long-Awaited Airdrop Has Finally Begun: Here’s Who Can Receive It

Long-Awaited Airdrop Has Finally Begun: Here’s Who Can Receive It

The post Long-Awaited Airdrop Has Finally Begun: Here’s Who Can Receive It appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The Monad Foundation announced that the long-awaited MON airdrop is now available for claiming. A total of 5,500 Monad community members and approximately 225,000 members of the broader cryptocurrency community will be able to receive MON tokens from this distribution. The airdrop claim period will run until November 3, 2025. The MON airdrop, divided into five categories, is designed to target users with significant on-chain and off-chain activity. The distribution includes Monad Card holders, active Farcaster users, security researchers (e.g., ZachXBT and SEAL 911 members), local development teams within the Monad ecosystem, and users active in DeFi protocols. The Monad Foundation stated that the goal of this airdrop was to “turn genuine crypto users and active members of the Monad community into the network’s first users.” The foundation designed this process to combat fake accounts and bots. To this end, it partnered with a third-party organization called Trusta AI to eliminate sybil (bot) addresses. The Monad Foundation advises that there is no advantage to claiming early, so users should proceed with caution. *This is not investment advice.

Warning to Android Crypto Users: New ‘Pixnapping’ Attack Can Steal Seed Phrases Directly From Your Screen

Warning to Android Crypto Users: New ‘Pixnapping’ Attack Can Steal Seed Phrases Directly From Your Screen

Cybersecurity researchers at Carnegie Mellon University have identified a new Android vulnerability that could allow hackers to steal sensitive on-screen data, including crypto wallet seed phrases and two-factor authentication (2FA) codes, without special permissions. The attack, named Pixnapping, targets devices from Google and Samsung and uses a previously known GPU side-channel technique called GPU.zip. The attack begins when a user installs a malicious app, which then silently invokes another application, such as a crypto wallet or authentication app, from which it intends to extract data.Source: Pixnapping research paper It manipulates graphical operations on specific pixels where sensitive information is typically displayed, reconstructing those pixels one by one through side-channel timing analysis. Researchers compared this process to taking unauthorized screenshots of data visible on the screen. Pixnapping uses Android’s window blur API and VSync callbacks to force sensitive pixels into the rendering pipeline, layering semi-transparent activities to measure how long certain frames take to render. These timing patterns reveal the color value of each pixel, which can then be reconstructed to expose sensitive data. Pixnapping Exploit Targets Screen Pixels to Bypass Android App Isolation The attack has been successfully demonstrated on the Google Pixel 6 through Pixel 9 devices, as well as the Samsung Galaxy S25, running Android versions 13 through 16. Tests showed that the researchers were able to recover 2FA codes from Google Authenticator with success rates between 29% and 73%, depending on the device model. On average, the attack retrieved a full six-digit code in under 30 seconds, fast enough to exploit the brief validity period of most 2FA codes. The team noted that while recovering long recovery phrases would take more time, crypto seed phrases remain highly vulnerable if left visible while being written down. Since these phrases stay on the screen longer than time-sensitive codes, attackers could potentially reconstruct them pixel by pixel if users are not cautious. The vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2025-48561, was reported to Google in February 2025. A partial patch was issued with September’s Android security update, but the researchers said they found a workaround that allows the attack to continue functioning. Google has since acknowledged the issue as high severity and confirmed that a second fix is being developed, expected in December. In their tests, the researchers were able to extract sensitive data not only from crypto wallets and Google Authenticator but also from applications like Gmail, Signal, Venmo, and Google Maps. Because the exploit targets visible screen content rather than stored files or permissions, even strict app isolation measures fail to block it. According to the researchers, Google initially attempted to mitigate the flaw by limiting how many activities an app can blur simultaneously, but this proved insufficient. They have also alerted Samsung that the patch does not protect its devices. Security experts advise crypto users to avoid displaying recovery phrases or 2FA codes on internet-connected devices. Instead, they recommend using hardware wallets, which store private keys and recovery phrases offline, preventing exposure through screen-based attacks like Pixnapping. Crypto Investors Face Rising Android Malware Threats A surge in Android-based crypto malware has intensified global cybersecurity concerns, with several major incidents surfacing over recent months. In April, researchers uncovered “Crocodilus,” a remote-access trojan targeting crypto wallet users in Turkey and Spain. Exposed by ThreatFabric, the malware disguises itself as legitimate crypto apps, tricking victims into revealing their seed phrases through fake security alerts. Once installed, it abuses Android’s Accessibility Services to steal passwords, intercept two-factor codes, and capture wallet credentials, all while masking activity behind a black-screen overlay. Security experts say Crocodilus spreads through multiple channels, including phishing emails, compromised websites, and malicious ads, making it difficult to trace the original dropper. The discovery follows reports of broader malware campaigns tied to fake AI, gaming, and Web3 startups. According to cybersecurity firm Darktrace, attackers have built convincing online presences, complete with fake company websites, social profiles, and GitHub repositories, to lure users into downloading infected software. The campaigns use malware families such as Realst and Atomic Stealer, capable of exfiltrating wallet data on both Windows and macOS. Analysts warn that these scams represent a growing sophistication in crypto-focused attacks, combining social engineering with advanced obfuscation and persistent execution methods. Cybersecurity experts advise users to verify project legitimacy, avoid downloading software from unverified sources, and remain cautious of unsolicited offers or airdrops, especially those linked to new “startups” or crypto platforms promising exclusive access or rewards

Monad Co-Founder’s Urgent Warning: Scammers Infiltrate Official Telegram With Fake Airdrop Ads

Monad Co-Founder’s Urgent Warning: Scammers Infiltrate Official Telegram With Fake Airdrop Ads

Monad co-founder Keone Hon has issued a public warning after scammers infiltrated the project’s official Telegram channel with fake advertisements mimicking the network’s upcoming airdrop claim portal. The incident occurred just a few hours before the highly anticipated launch of the MON token, raising fresh concerns over phishing campaigns targeting crypto users ahead of token distributions. In a post on X, Hon cautioned users not to click on any advertisements appearing within Monad’s official Telegram announcement channel, noting that malicious actors had purchased Telegram ads that appeared inside the project’s verified space. “Crazy that Telegram will push content directly into a channel that otherwise only contains content from one party,” he wrote. Monad Tightens Security Ahead of MON Airdrop, Warns of Fake Claim Portals Hon confirmed that the team is working to have the fake ads removed and stressed that the only legitimate link for the airdrop claim is claim(.)monad(.)xyz. The Monad airdrop claim portal is scheduled to open at 1:00 pm UTC on Tuesday and will remain accessible for three weeks, according to the team. Hon urged users to exercise caution and avoid acting with urgency, emphasizing that there is no need to rush. “Do not act with urgency, and always triple-verify before doing anything,” he said. Monad Growth Lead Kevin McCordic reiterated the warning, reminding users to rely solely on official announcements and confirming that a detailed blog post will be published to explain the airdrop process. He noted that, unlike previous token distributions that required user verification, Monad’s airdrop will involve a specific time window during which users can complete tasks to claim their tokens. Despite the fraudulent ads, anticipation for the MON token remains high. The yet-to-launch token is already trading on Hyperliquid’s perpetual futures market at around $0.07, implying a fully diluted valuation (FDV) of about $7 billion, based on a total supply of 100 billion tokens.Source: Hyperliquid Monad, founded in 2022 by former Jump Crypto executive Keone Hon, has drawn considerable attention for its goal of creating a high-performance, EVM-compatible layer-1 blockchain. The network claims it can process up to 10,000 transactions per second (TPS) with near-instant finality through parallel execution and an optimized consensus layer. The project says it has overcome the so-called blockchain trilemma, balancing scalability, security, and decentralization. Monad has attracted considerable investor interest, raising $225 million in 2024 through a funding round led by crypto venture firm Paradigm. Its testnet, launched in February, has already built an active ecosystem spanning DeFi applications, NFTs, gaming, meme tokens, and prediction markets. Users have been experimenting with testnet MON tokens, though the team has not confirmed whether testnet activity will influence token allocations. Crypto Projects Face Growing Scam Threats as Telegram Fraud Soars in 2025 Telegram’s ad policy explicitly prohibits deceptive and phishing content, but the platform’s system allowed scammers to purchase ads directly targeted at Monad’s channel. The incident shows the growing risks facing crypto projects during major token events, as scammers attempt to exploit heightened community engagement and investor excitement. Crypto scams on Telegram have surged sharply in 2025, with blockchain security firms warning that social platforms are becoming the primary channel for sophisticated fraud. In September, THORChain co-founder JP lost $1.35 million in a Telegram-linked phishing attack believed to involve North Korean hackers. The incident combined a hijacked Telegram account, a deepfake Zoom call, and what JP suspects was a zero-day exploit. JP revealed that attackers may have accessed his encrypted iCloud Keychain, where old MetaMask keys were stored. He urged users to avoid cloud backups and adopt multi-signature wallets to reduce risks. The case adds to a growing list of Telegram-related thefts. Data from Crystal Intelligence shows that investors lost $2.2 billion to scams and wallet breaches in the first half of 2025 alone. Scam Sniffer reported that malware scams on Telegram have spiked 2,000% since November 2024, often spread through fake bots and phishing groups posing as trading or airdrop communities. Authorities are taking notice. The North American Securities Administrators Association recently labeled crypto and social media fraud as the top investor threats of 2025, citing the rise of AI-generated content and deepfakes that make scams harder to detect. Security researchers warn that Telegram remains a central hub for “scam-as-a-service” operations, a growing ecosystem fueling billions in crypto crime each year

BlockDAG’s $0.0015 entry & TGE Code Beats Stellar &Tron Gains

BlockDAG’s $0.0015 entry & TGE Code Beats Stellar &Tron Gains

The post BlockDAG’s $0.0015 entry & TGE Code Beats Stellar &Tron Gains appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto News Explore Stellar and Tron price trends vs. BlockDAG’s $0.0015 entry, $420M+ raised and GENESIS Day on Nov 26, positioning it as the best crypto to buy now. Crypto markets are heating up again, and this week’s action highlights three major players: Stellar (XLM), Tron (TRX), and BlockDAG (BDAG). Stellar surged 6.2% over the week as traders eyed a possible breakout. Tron gained 0.44%, driven by rising stablecoin volume. Both showed signs of recovery, but their momentum depends on external trends and market sentiment. BlockDAG, on the other hand, is writing a different story, one powered by technology, delivery, and urgency. The project announced its final-stage entry at $0.0015, far below the current batch price of $0.0304. It’s not just a discount, it’s a time-sensitive opportunity designed for early access. With over $420 million raised, nearly 27 billion BDAG sold, and more than 20,000 miners already shipped, BlockDAG has become the centerpiece of crypto’s most anticipated launch. For anyone searching for the best crypto to buy now, the countdown to Genesis Day is on, and BlockDAG (BDAG) is leading the race. Stellar (XLM): Technical Lift Without a Defining Catalyst Stellar’s recent climb has caught the eye of analysts who believe the network could extend its run if trading volumes stay consistent. The 6.2% weekly jump reflects healthy activity, yet XLM’s progress still relies on its older strengths, cross-border payments and tokenized asset transfers. These keep the project relevant, but they don’t inject new energy into its growth curve. The issue lies in what’s missing: a fresh product cycle or a major integration to reignite excitement. While Stellar’s foundation remains solid, it’s moving without a new spark. Traders tracking its charts are focused on whether resistance breaks, but beyond technical setups, there’s little structural news to fuel sustained rallies. Without…

Monad Opens Airdrop Portal Ahead of Token Launch

Monad Opens Airdrop Portal Ahead of Token Launch

The post Monad Opens Airdrop Portal Ahead of Token Launch appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Monad is gearing up for one of the most anticipated token launches of the year. The Layer-1 blockchain project has opened its MON airdrop portal, inviting eligible users to check their status ahead of the official token distribution. While the airdrop itself hasn’t gone live yet, the Monad Foundation said that users can now verify eligibility and connect their wallets, with the window remaining open until Nov. 3, 2025. “There is NO incentive to claiming really fast, so take your time. Triple check everything,” said Keone Hon, the co-founder of Monad, on X. The Monad Foundation shared in a blog post that it will target around 5,500 core community members and 225,000 broader crypto users, rewarding those who’ve helped grow the Monad ecosystem. Distribution will be done through a multi-track system spanning five categories: Monad Community, Onchain Users, Crypto Community, Crypto Contributors & Curious and Monad Builders. Those who qualify across multiple tracks can stack their allocations, giving more weight to active participants. The team also said it will be combining on-chain activity data (such as DEX volume and NFT ownership) with off-chain verification through platforms like Twitter, Discord and Telegram. The airdrop marks a step toward Monad’s upcoming mainnet launch, though the details of when that will happen and the number of tokens allocated towards these communities are still unknown. (Hon did post on X earlier this year that there would be 100 billion MON tokens.)
