HTX to Distribute the First Airdrop (MERL) for LRS-BTC Holders at Liquid Restaking

Dear HTX Users,

 

HTX is excited to airdrop the first batch of rewards you earn from Liquid Restaking, i.e. millions of MERL tokens provided by the Merlin Chain project. This upcoming MERL airdrop is exclusive to the LRS-BTC holders, specifically 50% of your LRS-BTC points will be redeemed as MERL tokens, with the remaining portion to be distributed in BounceBit tokens. Please note the MERL tokens will be automatically airdropped to eligible users' Spot accounts in April, which requires no manual action on your part. To facilitate your future reward claims, LRS points will be upgraded to corresponding project points, and redemption will be supported on the event page. Please stay tuned for further announcements.

 

HTX's MERL Airdrop Rules:

 

Rules of HTX's MERL airdrop are subject to Merlin Chain airdrop rules: Investors who stake BTC in the Merlin Chain restaking will receive the project points daily by April 14, 2024, which can be redeemed for MERL tokens. The airdropped tokens will be unlocked in batches: 50% in the first month, 25% in the second month, and then unlocking will be completed over six months with 12.5%/6.25%/3.125%/3.125% distribution.

 

Redemption Ratio at HTX Liquid Restaking: 3.5089 LRS-BTC = 1 MERL (Rewards from 1 BTC staked per day 142.5 MERL)

 

Airdrop Eligibility: Users participating in HTX Liquid Restaking from February 29, 2024, to April 14, 2024, at 16:00 (UTC) and receiving LRS-BTC points.

 

Individual Airdrop: MERL to be airdropped to an eligible user = User's LRS-BTC points received during the event by April 14 * 0.5 / Redemption Ratio.

 

Vesting Rules: The airdropped tokens will be unlocked in batches: 50% in the first month, 25% in the second month, and then unlocking will be completed over six months with 12.5%/6.25%/3.125%/3.125% distribution.

 

Airdropping MERL tokens, accounting for 50% of the total airdrop, will begin today and MERL will be gradually credited to your spot account within three days. Please keep a lookout for your spot account.

 

Example:

 

User A enabled BTC for Liquid Restaking and received 300, 200, and 100 LRS-BTC points respectively on February 29, April 14, and April 16 based on the BTC balances in their account.

 

After three days, on April 18, User A received a total of 500 LRS-BTC points (300 points for February 29 and 200 points for April 14.) The points for April 16 are not counted towards the MERL airdrop, but they can still be redeemed for other project airdrops).

 

User A will receive MERL tokens as follows:

 

  • Total Amount: 500 LRS-BTC * 50% / 3.5089 = 142.5 MERL
  • MERL Unlocked in April: 142.5 MERL* 50% = 71.25 MERL
  • MERL Unlocked in May: 142.5 MERL * 25% = 35.62 MERL

 

Continue engaging in Liquid Restaking with your account balance snapshotted, and you will earn more airdrops from popular projects such as BounceBit, EigenLayer, Puffer, etc.

 

Please stay tuned for upcoming additional airdrop rewards. Greater airdrops come with earlier participation!
