On April 23 at 8:00 AM CEST, a snapshot for the 105,600 TON airdrop was taken, specifically targeting active traders in the NFT spheres of Getgems, xRare, and Ton NFT Diamonds. The TON Foundation has confirmed the launch of a generous airdrop amounting to $600K, exclusively tailored for NFT traders and holders. The Foundation’s confirmation on X detailed that the 105,600 TON airdrop was accessible to traders actively involved in the NFT trading platforms of Getgems, xRare, and Ton NFT Diamonds.

Active traders on these NFT markets had the opportunity to qualify for the airdrop by engaging in transactions between April 11 (2 PM CEST) and April 23 (8 AM CEST), marking an inclusive approach to foster participation in the event. It was communicated that the airdrop snapshot was taken on April 23 at 8:00 AM CEST, aligning with the TON Foundation's commitment to aiding and rewarding active contributors to the NFT ecosystem.

Eligibility for the airdrop was contingent on active trader status in the named NFT markets, thereby excluding Sybil wallet addresses, non-wallet addresses, and NFT collection holders from the initiative. Ensuring equal opportunities across all NFT collections available in these markets, the airdrop aimed at recognizing and appreciating the engagement of traders involved in fostering the vibrancy of the NFT community.

In a departure from a point system approach, the TON Foundation opted to recognize and incentivize trader participation with a straightforward rewards-based setup tied to on-chain criteria. Users who completed between 2 to 4 NFT collections transactions received 1 point, with a proportional rise in points tally corresponding to the number of collections traded.

This direct relationship between traders’ activities and earned incentives represented a transparent and inclusive method of rewarding active engagement within the NFT markets. Points distribution according to NFT transaction frequency and trading volume per user further exemplified the Foundation's commitment to providing substantial incentives for participants to redeem their points for TON tokens, the native digital asset of the Ton blockchain network.
