Birdeye refutes airdrop plans in latest announcement
Crypto trading aggregator Birdeye has unveiled a new feature to customize the data pool, while also addressing speculations surrounding a potential airdrop.
In an X post on Jan. 27, Birdeye unveiled a tool called “Terminal,” designed to empower users to tailor their data pool for a more personalized trading experience, adding that, as of now, there are no plans for an airdrop. The team behind Birdeye said the Terminal feature allows users to customize notifications related to market movements, token performance, trading events, and technical indicators.
Birdeye joins other data aggregators, such as CoinMarketCap and CoinGecko, in adopting a cautious approach to token issuance, opting against introducing their tokens. However, there are still platforms, like Arkham Intelligence, that have chosen to incentivize user activity by launching tokens. Arkham, for instance, introduced its ARKM token, rewarding users for contributing valuable intelligence insights.
Birdeye’s statement regarding an airdrop coincides with a broader craze in the crypto community, where there has been a surge in excitement surrounding multiple token distributions in recent weeks. For example, the Jupiter decentralized exchange, based on the Solana network, is set to distribute 200 JUP tokens to its users starting on Jan. 31. Additionally, Solana’s WEN meme coin has garnered attention, experiencing an impressive 4,000% surge since its launch on Jan. 26, achieving a market capitalization exceeding $50 million within 12 hours of its debut.
