Binance Airdrop Portal is a dedicated Binance platform that facilitates the distribution of on-chain airdrops. It allows blockchain projects to easily distribute their tokens to Binance users and provides a centralized place for users to discover and participate in airdrops.

The Binance Airdrop Portal offers blockchain projects a simple and efficient way to distribute tokens. For users, it offers a convenient way to participate in airdrops and receive tokens.

Users can browse the Airdrop Portal to discover ongoing and upcoming airdrops. The portal provides information about each airdrop, including links to their respective announcements. Typically, announcements provide detailed information about the project's history, token distribution, and eligibility criteria.

To participate in an airdrop, users must meet the eligibility criteria defined by the project. This may involve holding a specific cryptocurrency on your Binance account, completing certain tasks, or simply signing up for the airdrop.

Once the airdrop is complete, the distributed tokens will be automatically credited to users' Binance accounts. In most cases, tokens will be credited directly to the user's Binance Spot Wallet. Users can then trade, hold, or use these tokens as they wish.
