The Nation Token ($NATO), a decentralized token on the Base blockchain, has launched on the market following a major airdrop to one million active Base wallets. As of now, $NATO is trading on Uniswap, Poloniex, and AscendEX.
Historic $NATO Airdrop
In December 2024, 74% of the total 1 trillion $NATO supply—amounting to 740 billion tokens—was distributed among 1 million randomly selected Base wallets, with each wallet receiving 740,000 $NATO. This marked one of the largest and most widespread token airdrops in blockchain history. Uniswap liquidity has been locked until January 1, 2030, reinforcing a commitment to long-term decentralization.
Creation of The Nation Token
$NATO was created out of growing concerns regarding the direction of many modern cryptocurrencies, particularly the trend toward centralization. The Nation Token aims to disrupt this pattern by being a truly community-owned and governed asset. A governance platform is in its final development stages to allow token holders to vote on proposals and roadmap decisions.
Growth and Development of $NATO
Following its initial listing on Uniswap (paired with WETH), $NATO saw growth in trading activity. Within two weeks, Poloniex and AscendEX added $NATO (paired with USDT), resulting in a 10x increase in trading volume. Additional exchange listings are already planned. To drive further awareness and participation, a community growth campaign has been launched. Participants can compete for a $1,000 USDC prize pool, divided among the top 50 participants based on engagement.
The Nation Token ($NATO) aims to become the first cryptocurrency to achieve high goals solely through community efforts. With its significant airdrop and successful listings on major exchanges, $NATO demonstrates potential for long-term development, promoting fairness and decentralization principles in the crypto world.
