Mythos Reveals 10 Million MYTH Tokens Airdrop to Polkadot Holders

Following a recent collaboration between the Mythos and Polkadot ecosystems, the Polkadot DAO and Community held a massive airdrop event. Over 450,000 Polkadot holders received 10 million MYTH tokens in their wallets.

While the airdrop distribution began on Sep. 30th and is scheduled to conclude within seven days, the event marks a historic milestone in the industry leaders’ successes at the forefront of blockchain gaming and Web3 innovation.

This remarkable event aims to propel the Mythos gaming ecosystem for more advancement and wider recognition. While the ecosystem has received support across four blockchains, it can demonstrate the power of multi-chain interoperability with the Mythos chain and MYTH token. These blockchains include Mythos, Hydration, Ethereum, and Asset Hub. Meanwhile, Polkadot secured three of these.

Notably, this feature allows users to access and manage their tokens through all major ecosystem wallet UIs, including Nova Wallet and SubWallet for mobile users and Talisman and SubWallet on desktop.

Polkadot Distributes Most Transparent Airdrop in MYTH Tokens

While the airdrop has been refined with input from the Polkadot community, including input from key Polkadot ecosystem stakeholders and leaders from organizations including Scytale Digital, The Kusamarian, OpenGov.Watch, ChaosDAO, PermanenceDAO, and BlockDeep Labs; the airdrop aims to achieve optimum transparency as it was released following several rounds of feedback from the Polkadot community.

Per the announcement, the airdrop was constructed and published via Dune Analytics, led by blockchain services firm Colorful Notion, with an audit conducted by Parity Technologies, allowing full transparency and community insight throughout the process.

To claim this airdrop, Polkadot holders are required to visit the airdrop portal and transfer the airdropped tokens to the Mythos Chain, converting them to native MYTH.

Introducing the Mythical Forest Campaign 

While this airdrop is centered on rewarding active Polkadot users who have engaged in core activities like staking, voting in governance, and executing cross-chain (XCM) transactions, the MYTH airdrop is accompanied by the Mythical Forest Campaign, which focuses on social quests.

Per the announcement, the 10 Million MYTH airdrop aims to complement the Mythical Forest campaign, which is already live. The Mythical Forest Campaign gives holders of the native MYTH tokens a multiplier effect on rewards, allowing them the chance to earn from a 2 million MYTH token pool that incentivizes social tasks and quests.

It is important to note that both campaigns are focused on improving blockchain participation. As such, the airdrop not only incentivizes active users on Polkadot but also offers rewards to passive participants in the Polkadot ecosystem.

For users who simply held DOT but didn’t actively participate, 347,885 “inactive” wallets still received MYTH tokens, ensuring everyone with a stake in Polkadot benefited from this community-driven initiative. In both cases, the wallet must have held between 10 DOT and 5000 DOT at the time of the snapshot.

To ensure that almost all members of both ecosystems are incentivized, the Mythos Foundation revealed that it has reserved millions of additional MYTH tokens for community building, gaming incentives, and more. These tokens will be available to those with active accounts on the native Mythos Chain. Moreover, an additional reserve will drive the long-term engagement of token holders and gamers.
