This week's Airdrop is a bit intense.
In mid-November, the airdrop craze in the crypto market is at its peak. Jupiter takes the lead with the announcement of a 700 million JUP airdrop plan, set to snapshot at the end of January next year; at the same time, six new projects including Sentient, deBridge, and Irys have opened registration for claims one after another. Those in the know are all focused on Jupuary, as the scale is significant this time.
How to distribute the 700 million JUP of Jupiter

- 200 million reward pool: As long as you stake and don't move, you can still receive a round before the conference in 2027.
- 300 million reserved for Jupnet: A backup for ecological expansion
- Snapshot date: January 30, 2026
Calculate this, this is Jupite
