At 8:00 today, Blur announced the opening of the application for the second season airdrop and the start of the third season airdrop lasting for 6 months. NFT traders and creators on Blur are eligible to start receiving the Season 2 airdrop and have 45 days to claim BLUR. With the end of Season 2, Season 3 has begun today and will last for 6 months, providing new rewards for NFT traders and BLUR holders.

50% of the rewards for Season 3 will be allocated to NFT traders, who can obtain Blur Points through NFT bidding, listing, and lending. The remaining 50% of the rewards will be allocated to BLUR holders, who can receive Holder Points by holding BLUR.

According to Lookonchain monitoring, in the second season airdrop of Blur, the top ten wallet addresses collectively received 85.69 million BLUR (approximately $27.25 million), accounting for 28% of the total airdrop of 307.6 million BLUR (approximately $97.5 million). Among them:

• hanwe.eth received 22.85 million BLUR (approximately $7.26 million);

• jaypegpowell.eth received 19.92 million BLUR (approximately $6.3 million);

• and Huang Licheng (machibigbrother.eth) received 6 million BLUR (approximately $1.9 million).

Community Feedback: Some Lose, Some Win

Huang Licheng (@machibigbrother), a well-known user on the Blur platform, often conducts NFT transactions worth over a hundred ETH on Blur. However, after the airdrop announcement, he expressed dissatisfaction with the airdrop on X platform.

According to community user @The0xJuan's analysis, Huang Licheng lost approximately $14 million from trading on Blur, while the token value of the second season airdrop is about $2 million.

This is not the first time Huang Licheng has expressed dissatisfaction with the Blur platform. He had a similar reaction when Blur announced the addition of wash trading points on March 29 this year. (Although it did not affect his subsequent use.)

Similarly, there has been negative feedback in the Chinese community regarding the airdrop earnings.

However, not all top users have reported losses. @CirrusNFT reported receiving a six-figure airdrop without any wash trading losses.

New Platform Release, Potentially Changing the Game Rules

On October 10, Blur teased the second season airdrop on November 20, with an opening price of 0.164 USDT. Subsequently, the price of Blur soared, reaching a phase high of 0.471 USDT on November 11, with a relative increase of 187%.

After the airdrop announcement at 8:00 today, Blur began to fluctuate widely, with a maximum hourly fluctuation of over 10%.

Simultaneously with the airdrop announcement, Blur founder Pacman announced the launch of a new project, Blast, aimed at addressing the high gas fees on Ethereum and the bid fund immobilization issues on Blur. As of 11:00, Blur's closing price was 0.311 USDT, still showing a nearly 90% increase relative to the airdrop announcement.

As a leading project in the NFT field, Blur's platform development and income are expected to further improve through the new paradigm iteration of Blast. Blast is scheduled to launch its mainnet and withdrawal development on February 24 next year, during the middle period of Blur's third season, potentially bringing significant changes in costs and processes. The original partial wealth effect of Blur's airdrop will also change accordingly, and users need to make their own judgments.
