The Solana ecosystem will kick off 2025 with a generous distribution of tokens. Two of its most notable projects, Sonic and Jupiter, have announced respective airdrops that will distribute hundreds of millions of dollars among their communities.
Sonic: A quantum leap in adoption
Sonic, the vibrant gaming network of Solana, will kick off this cryptocurrency party on January 7. On this date, the project will release a juicy 7% of its total SONIC token supply, allocating it to accounts linked to TikTok. With this innovative strategy, Sonic aims to rapidly expand its user base and consolidate its market position.
Of the 2.4 billion SONIC tokens in circulation, only 15% will be available for trading from day one. The remaining 8% will be reserved to reward the early investors who supported the project.
This initiative follows the resounding success of Sonic's funding round in June 2024, where it raised $12 million and managed to lock up more than 50 million SOL.
Jupiter: A gift from kings for its users
For its part, Jupiter, the Solana exchange aggregator, also has a surprise prepared for its users. Throughout January, the platform will distribute 700 million JUP tokens, valued at over $625 million. This generous airdrop, dubbed "JUPuary," will benefit nearly 2.3 million wallets.
Rewards will vary based on each user's activity. Those who reach a trading volume of $800 will receive 50 JUP tokens, while the most active, with a volume exceeding $14 million, can obtain up to 20,000 tokens.
A promising year for Solana
These two airdrops are a demonstration of the dynamism and growth potential of the Solana ecosystem. By rewarding their most loyal communities, Sonic and Jupiter not only strengthen their position in the market but also promote the adoption of their platforms and participation in the DeFi ecosystem.
