SPK Ignition Airdrop

Spark ran an airdrop campaign to reward users who participated in various DeFi activities across multiple chains. The campaign consisted of two phases: the main Ignition airdrop and an optional Overdrive phase where users could boost their airdrop amount.

How many SPK tokens are allocated to Ignition?

A total of 325,485,000 SPK tokens were allocated to the Ignition airdrop campaign. Tokens which remained unclaimed at the end of the Ignition claiming period were distributed in the Overdrive airdrop as specified in the Overdrive rules. You can find more info on the Overdrive airdrop here.

How did users qualify for the Ignition airdrop?

Users could qualify for the Ignition airdrop by meeting one or more of the following criteria. Each criterion met earned users one "Ignition unit". Users' final SPK allocation was proportional to their total Ignition units relative to the units of all qualifying users.
