More and more cryptocurrency exchanges are chiming in to support the upcoming second AQUA airdrop. Snapshot of this airdrop is slated to take place on 25th December 2022 (UTC).
Until now, the only way to claim AQUA airdrop 2 was to keep them off centralized exchanges. You must keep trustline established to AQUA asset before and after airdrop in order to receive the airdrop. Also, you must have atleast 1 AQUA at time of snapshot to qualify.
If you have never traded on a Stellar DEX like Stellar term or StellarX, you might find aforementioned steps quite daunting and for those, keeping XLM on a supported centralized exchange might be a better idea.
Following exchanges have confirmed that they will be supporting AQUA airdrop for XLM holders.
First is Gopax. Snapshot time is January 15, 2022 09:00 AM (KST) and here are details from Gopax’s portal.
Payment method: Monthly installments of Aqua (AQUA) for 36 months in proportion to the amount of Stellar Lumen (XLM) held at the time of the snapshot.
Payment Quantity: The payment rate will vary depending on the total amount of eligible Stellar Lumens (XLMs) at the time of the snapshot. The amount of AQUA paid per 1 XLM will be announced after confirmation.
