As the Binance HODLer Airdrops Portal lists Banana Gun, the BANANA token surges 26%, showcasing strong market enthusiasm.
Leading cryptocurrency exchange Binance has announced the first project on the Binance HODLer Airdrops. The exchange is listing Banana Gun (BANANA), the ecosystem token of the Telegram-based trading assistant Banana Gun bot, on its portal.
The exchange explained that users who subscribed their Binance Coin (BNB) to Simple Earn products between June 23 and July 5 are eligible to receive the airdropped BANANA tokens. The Binance HODLer Airdrops page is now live, with detailed information on the distribution.
The maximum supply of BANANA tokens is capped at 10 million, with the current total supply sitting at 8.9 million. Of the 8.9 million total supply, only 2.42 million tokens are in circulation. Notably, 800,000 BANANA tokens have been allocated for the Binance HODLer Airdrops rewards.
Following the airdrop, Binance Spot will officially list BANANA on July 20, at 09:00 UTC with BTC, USDT, BNB, FDUSD, and TRY pairs. Those who hold BANANA through the HODLer Airdrops will find their tokens in their spot wallets an hour before trading begins.
Binance has cautioned users about the potential for significant price volatility, emphasizing that the asset is already in circulation. As such, the airdrop would trigger an increase in its circulation, potentially leading to increased price volatility.
BANANA Spikes 26%
The BANANA token has positively reacted to the announcement. The token’s price surged by over 26%, rising from $57.6 to $72.6 within the last 12 hours. Trading volume also saw a huge spike, increasing by 1,000% to $36.4 million at the time of writing.
In the long term, BANANA is up by more than 500% in the past year. It currently sits just 11% below its all-time high of $78.33, achieved last month. The token has also been named by crypto expert Ran Neuner for its strong potential for massive returns.
Binance HODLer Airdrops
Launched on June 19, Binance HODLer Airdrop Portal is a platform within Binance that distributes on-chain airdrops to its users. These airdrop tokens are issued by projects with enough circulating supply hours before their listing on Binance.
The program mainly rewards BNB holders based on historical snapshots of their BNB balances. Notably, users subscribing to the Simple Earn Program with BNB automatically qualify for HODLer Airdrops, alongside potential rewards from Binance Launchpool and Megadrop.
The exchange transfers these rewarded airdrop tokens to users’ spot wallets before the token lists on Binance Spot.
As Binance celebrates its seventh anniversary, it has upped its rewards for this bull run. Recently, the exchange announced a two-week competition featuring big rewards for dog-themed memecoins.
