The blockchain company Initiá prepares for mainnet release with a massive giveaway of 50 million INIT tokens while adopting multiple blockchain networks. On March 31, 2025, Initia will make a big distribution and allocate 90% of 5% of its total token supply to community members who have supported testnet activities since 2024. The main facts about who will receive tokens and what makes this distribution special are explained here.
Testnet Heroes Take the Lion’s Share
Initia gives generous rewards to its initial users as part of its incentives. Among our 50 million INIT tokens, 44.7 million or 90% will be allocated to the 194294 users who participated in the testnet programs of 2024. The testnet rewards went to live users who demonstrated their skills by looking after virtual pet Jennie before checking Initia’s system strength. It honors the people who formed the network structure ahead of its launch.
- Each tested user gets 230 INIT tokens from the entire allocation, representing a promising earnings potential when INIT prices surge after network launch.
- The system of DeFi swaps combined with rollup support and stake achievements showed that Initia’s network worked effectively under actual use.
Early supporters allow the Initia Foundation community members to determine what happens next. They want the community to steer the first stages of mainnet activities.
Partners and Social Stars Split the Rest
The other 10% isn’t forgotten. Initia distributes NETWORK tokens to its partner networks and those who championed the project on social media.
Initia sets aside 4.5 percent of 2.25 million INIT tokens for active LayerZero, IBC, and MilkyWay platform users who promote the project’s vision. Your main eligibility for this program depends on your actual transaction history and not on how much you talk up the initiative.
Initia rewards its contributors of Discord, Telegram, and X platform content (6%) through 3 million INIT tokens. The airdrop rewards actual conversation participants rather than automated messaging systems.
Insiders? Out of luck. The Foundation prevented developers from accessing the airdrop functions to build it solely for its community members.
Claiming tokens involves mainnet activation detection and a time window to obtain rewards.
Eligible? Use the official www.airdrop.initia.xyz site to check your eligibility. The platform window for collecting tokens opens when the mainnet goes live, but will close 30 days later without exception. The platform’s special posts about Initia now display numerous urgent user warnings.
Initia secured $24 million from YZi Labs and top venture funds, which made their token stand at $350 million in the latest fundraising. The project receives strong financial support behind its mission to make rollups the future infrastructure through its Cosmos-based Layer 1 stack, with its range of customizable Layer 2 options.
The Vision: Multichain Muscle
Co-founder Ezaan “Zon” Mangalji doesn’t distribute tokens for entertainment purposes. He promotes Initia as the master of multiple chains by linking a base Layer 1 system with Minitia optimistic rollups. Our executive said the system will automatically connect Layer 1 and 2 from the initial setup. Translation? The network works better with all forms of crypto economy activity, including Decentralized Finance, on-chain games and NFTs running together.
- Minitias enable developers to connect transactions between the Ethereum and Cosmos platforms and other networks.
- Mainnet Goal: Unleash value for users and apps, not just speculative trading.
Why It Matters Now
Via token distribution, Initia creates the foundation for its network startup. At launch, early supporters who received 44.7 million tokens in test mode would have the power to shape the platform’s operations. Initia shows readiness to enter the industry by presenting large funds for the mainnet release at the end of Q2 2018. The event will launch multiple chains into popularity or fade like earlier hype waves. Everyone in the X forum talks about the Binance listing, whereas other users fear the tokens will be dumped directly after release. The initial impact of 50 million INIT tokens reaching wallets will create a strong beginning.
