On August 28, 2025, the Mitosis Foundation activated the MITO Genesis airdrop, which will last until September 11, 2025. Participants will have their gas fees covered.
Launch of the MITO Genesis Airdrop
The MITO Genesis airdrop launched with pre-funded gas fees for participants, indicating a strategic move by the Mitosis Foundation. Eligible users, such as protocol testers and NFT holders, have until September 11, 2025, to claim their tokens.
Benefits for Participants
Participants can either claim all MITO tokens immediately or lock them for potential additional benefits. This approach aims to increase user engagement by providing clear incentives. "Claimants can either claim all MITO immediately or lock claim as tMITO, redeeming for 2.5x MITO after 180 days," — reported the Mitosis Foundation.
Market Analysis and MITO Token Performance
Currently, the Mitosis token (MITO) trades at $0.21 with a market cap of $40.57 million according to CoinMarketCap. Trading volume has increased by 49.53% over the past 24 hours. The token's supply is capped at one billion. Coincu experts argue that the airdrop-driven market activities might spur short-term volatility; however, the Mitosis Foundation's systems could enhance its modular liquidity protocol’s sustainability in the long term.
The MITO Genesis airdrop from Mitosis represents an intriguing initiative aimed at engaging participants and stimulating market activity. The strategy of covering gas fees may serve as a model for other projects.
