Airdrop

An Airdrop is a distribution of free tokens to a community, typically used as a marketing tool or a reward for early protocol adopters and testers. In 2026, the "points-to-airdrop" model has matured into merit-based incentive programs that utilize Sybil-resistance and Proof-of-Humanity to filter out bots. Airdrops remain a primary method for decentralized governance (DAO) bootstrapping. Follow this tag for the latest on retroactive rewards, eligibility criteria, and how to participate in the most anticipated token distributions in the ecosystem.

Bitcoin Hyper Promises to Fix Bitcoin and Make It Future-Proof for Modern Demands

Bitcoin Hyper Promises to Fix Bitcoin and Make It Future-Proof for Modern Demands

The post Bitcoin Hyper Promises to Fix Bitcoin and Make It Future-Proof for Modern Demands appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Bitcoin remains crypto’s heavyweight, commanding a $2.25T+ market cap and more institutional inflows than any other asset. Yet for all its dominance, it still struggles with the basics: slow block times, high fees, and no real way to run payments or DeFi at scale. That’s the gap Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) aims to fill. As the first true Bitcoin Layer 2, it uses Solana’s Virtual Machine (SVM) to unlock sub-second transactions and near-zero costs for Bitcoin. Investors are already paying attention: the presale has pulled in $17.7M, with $HYPER trading at $0.012965 and staking yields set at 66% APY. And whales are rushing to get in, with $30.5K bought on Sunday ($17.6K and $12.9K). If Bitcoin can finally scale, its dominance won’t just hold… it could expand into whole new sectors. The Problem: Bitcoin’s Scalability Roadblock Bitcoin was designed for security and decentralization, not speed. The trade-off shows in its performance: the network handles roughly 7 transactions per second (tps), with new blocks arriving only every ten minutes. That’s fine for long-term settlement, but it falls flat when stacked against modern demands. Live data from Chainspect shows the gap between Bitcoin and Solana clearly. Bitcoin is processing around 4.07 tps in real time, while Solana handles over 831 tps – a 99.5% difference. Even at current peak capacity, Bitcoin caps out near 13.2 tps, compared to Solana’s 4,709 tps. Source: Chainspect And try paying for a Starbucks coffee with $BTC and the transaction fee would outweigh the cost of the drink. During peak congestion (like the Runes protocol minting frenzy in April 2024) fees have even surged above $100, effectively locking out everyday transactions. This gulf has left Bitcoin typecast as ‘digital gold.’ It’s unmatched as a store of value, but clumsy as a medium of exchange. And attempts to patch…

SwissBorg to launch $15M-backed cashback program on trading fees

SwissBorg to launch $15M-backed cashback program on trading fees

The post SwissBorg to launch $15M-backed cashback program on trading fees appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. SwissBorg, the European crypto investing app, will roll out a new cashback program starting September 30, allowing users to save up to 90% on trading fees, according to details shared with Finbold on Tuesday, September 23. The initiative will be supported by an estimated $15 million in annual BORG buybacks, a twentyfold increase compared to 2024. Cashbacks distributed in BORG Under the program, cashback is applied automatically to every trade, with higher rates available to users staking larger amounts of BORG tokens. Rewards are distributed in BORG, which SwissBorg will purchase on the open market, removing tokens from circulation through auto-staking. This mechanism links trading activity with continuous buy pressure on BORG and ties the program’s growth to the wider ecosystem. “The cashback campaign aligns user benefits with the growth of our ecosystem,” said Cyrus Fazel, Co-Founder and CEO of SwissBorg. “By linking trading activity to sustained BORG buybacks, we’re creating a straightforward way for users to reduce fees while strengthening the long-term stability of our token and platform.” As cashbacks are auto-staked, users advance in SwissBorg’s Loyalty Ranks, which unlock further benefits such as boosted yield rates, access to pre-TGE deals, and eligibility for rewards and airdrops.

Embark On a Global World Travel Adventure

Embark On a Global World Travel Adventure

The post Embark On a Global World Travel Adventure appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Landlord is excited to announce the launch of its brand-new season “World Travel,” kicking off on September 26, 2025 and running until October 2, 2025. This marks one of the most innovative and ambitious seasons since Landlord’s debut, where players will compete across virtual international cities — investing, managing, and strategizing in a cross-border on-chain economic adventure. The highlight of this season is the new globalized map. Unlike previous single-scenario setups, world Travel will feature multiple international world maps, including Singapore, Dubai, Turkey, and New York. Each world has its own unique economic dynamics and competitive landscape. As more players invest and acquire land, each world’s regional popularity score will rise. Top-ranking cities will unlock additional grand prizes for their participants, pushing players to carefully weigh their strategies — should they support their favorite world, or target the one with the highest potential returns? This season also introduces more variability and direct competition between players. New event-driven mechanics and card-based items allow players to hedge risks or seize opportunities, making every move more intense and strategic. Each match becomes a mix of unpredictability, tension, and excitement. Meanwhile, alliance gameplay is under development, designed to expand cooperative opportunities. Players will be able to form real estate alliances and jointly develop regions. Once an alliance’s total assets reach a certain scale, the community can vote to unlock mega construction projects such as shopping malls or CBDs. Unlike traditional plots, these mega projects will be co-managed by alliance members, with rewards distributed proportionally based on contributions. This adds richer layers of collaboration and competition to the game economy. From an economic design perspective, Landlord continues to prioritize sustainability. Landholders continuously generate LT tokens, which can be reinvested to upgrade plots for higher returns. Upgraded plots also yield greater profits when acquired by others,…
