Drift Announces Upcoming Season 2 Airdrop for FUEL Rewards Program
Drift, a Solana-based on-chain trading platform, has announced its plans to launch the Season 2 airdrop for its FUEL rewards program in May 2025. This development follows several key milestones achieved by the platform in 2024.
Drift’s Progress in 2024
In May 2024, Drift successfully launched its native token, DRIFT. Additionally, the platform introduced FUEL, a rewards program designed to align incentives and drive growth for the protocol. The upcoming airdrop marks the second season of the FUEL rewards program and will benefit all users across the decentralized exchange platform.
Among Drift’s top objectives for the year is to grow into a Super Protocol, focusing on various aspects such as borrowing and lending, derivatives, prediction markets, automated market making, and wealth management.
Significant Traction and Integrations
Drift has seen significant traction in recent months, particularly with the integration of real-world assets. Notable developments include support for Ondo, as well as the addition of the USDe, PayPal USD, and Sky’s USDS stablecoins. The platform has also introduced liquid staking, and Drift Earn has benefited from vaults, with structured products designed for trading and yield strategies.
Crypto Airdrops in 2024
Crypto airdrops were a popular trend in 2024, with several major token distributions resulting in significant rewards for early users. Some of the top airdrops of the year came from Hyperliquid, Starknet, and Pudgy Penguins, among others.
