In May, Blast, the Ethereum layer 2 network that announced its airdrop on June 26, shared a warning about the token distribution. In the statement, it was stated that EOAs (externally managed account holders) included in the Points and Gold categories should log in to the Blast panel.

In the statement made from Blast’s X account, the following statements were used:

“1 week left for Blast airdrop. Dapps must distribute category tokens known as Gold and Points to users on June 25th. If you are a user and your externally managed account (EOA) is in the Points or Gold category, you will need to log in to the Blast dashboard. This will give you a chance to connect to an existing account or get a daver. This will allow you to participate in airdrop calculations. Don’t forget to link to your linked wallets”

50% of the airdrop is dedicated to Blast Points. Here, users will automatically receive rewards for each block according to their balance. The Gold category will be used as an incentive mechanism for the growth of Dapps. Here, Dapps will distribute 100% of their Gold to their users.

Blast would normally hold this airdrop in May, but delays pushed the distribution to June. Due to this delay, the project decided to increase the distribution amount.

Founded in November 2023, the Blast network currently has a total of $2.1 billion in locked assets.
