Unlock Your $ME Tokens: A Step-by-Step Guide to the Magic Eden Airdrop
If you’ve been into NFTs, you’ve probably heard about OpenSea and Magic Eden. Although OpenSea got a head start, Magic Eden has become the go-to destination for NFT traders interested in Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana NFTs. And now, Magic Eden has released its own reward program and announced its $ME token airdrop.
What does Magic Eden do?
Magic Eden is an NFT marketplace for creators, collectors, and enthusiasts. At its core, Magic Eden allows users to discover, buy, sell, and trade NFTs on Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, Polygon, and other blockchains.
What is the $ME token?
As a governance token, $ME will most likely allow holders to propose or vote on changes, upgrades, or adjustments to Magic Eden’s platform operations. As Magic Eden spans across different blockchains and is at the forefront of technical innovation, governing the NFT marketplace could be an interesting endeavor. More specifically, the $ME token will have a total supply of 1 billion, with 12.5% (125 million tokens) allocated for the initial airdrop.
How to qualify for the $ME airdrop?
The Magic Eden reward program provides insights on how to qualify for the $ME airdrop. This program went live on Solana on January 23rd, 2024, and was later expanded to other blockchains. If you've traded NFTs on Magic Eden in the past, you'll be rewarded with retroactive diamond drops. Both new and old users can earn diamonds by buying, listing, and making offers on the platform. Additionally, NFT traders can enhance their diamond collections with bonuses for:
-
100% loyalty on Magic Eden
-
Trading in hot collections
-
Bonus diamonds from Diamond Airdrop
It's speculated that the amount of diamonds you hold will correlate with the number of $ME tokens you'll receive in the airdrop.
