Official YieldNest Airdrop: Everything You Need to Know

We are rewarding our most engaged and loyal users with an airdrop of our long-anticipated YND token. Whether you’ve been accumulating Seeds or holding tokens in partner communities, here’s a quick rundown on eligibility, the snapshot date, additional rewards, governance, how to claim your share & much more….

The Airdrop: Community First

From its earliest days, YieldNest has prioritized user empowerment, decentralization, accessibility, transparency, and community-led governance. That’s why more than half of our token supply is dedicated to community rewards and airdrops.

By distributing our airdrop this way, we ensure that those who supported us will be rewarded accordingly. Fostering a model built on sustainability, long-term alignment, and active community participation.

Snapshot Date & Claiming Process

Keep an eye on our socials for the snapshot date. Once the airdrop is live, we will announce the official link via our official Twitter.

To claim, you’ll connect your wallet to the official YieldNest app and visit the airdrop claim page.

Important: The to-be-provided link will let you claim once the Token Generation Event (TGE) is live. Any other site claiming to offer early claims are NOT safe.

Stay Safe

  • Always check you’re on the correct YieldNest domain (https://www.yieldnest.finance).
  • We’ll never ask you to send funds to claim tokens.
  • Always double-check what you are signing.
  • Ignore DMs pretending to be official claim links.

After the Airdrop — Stake & Earn to Join the YieldNest DAO

Exciting news! There are more rewards to be earned. Once the TGE happens, our governance opens up to YND token holders. You’ll help to decide protocol parameters, shape new products, and guide YieldNest’s path forward. Like always, our focus remains on delivering advanced yield strategies and cross-chain expansions, ensuring that you, the community, steer the protocol’s future and at the same time get significantly more rewards.

When joining our governance platform (built with Aragon v2), you have the possibility to:

  • Stake YND for veYND
  • Votes on where incentives go
  • Vote on governance proposals
  • Earn additional rewards

Rather delegate your voting power and have a hands-off approach? It’s possible to delegate via StakeDAO to automate your earnings. More on that soon.

Grateful…

Your loyalty helped build YieldNest. This airdrop is our way of showing gratitude. Keep an eye on our channels for further updates and new earning opportunities.

We’re excited to have you on board as we continue growing YieldNest together!

So when it comes to Yearn - i pull out all my deposits because i read they had no mangament and were just drifting aimlessly. I was in their Pooltogether lending pools in early versions of Yearn, is it back under governance and active?
Zerion is a good wallet and completing the Ynd task is simple. HOT wallet is an up and comer that is extremely versatile, i recommend it for the yieldnest family of partners
