Aethir is now open for airdrop claims and staking

ChainCatcher news, the decentralized GPU cloud infrastructure Aethir has opened the Aethir Cloud Drop (Season 1) airdrop claim today at 17:00. This season has a total of 630 million ATH (1.5%) rewards for the Aethir community, including Checker Node holders and Aethir OGs, as well as all other Web3 communities participating in the Aethir Cloud Drop. The Aethir airdrop event will last for three seasons, with a total of 6% of the ATH supply reserved for airdrop rewards. To claim the airdrop, please visit https://claim.aethir.com/.

In addition, Aethir has launched an innovative ATH staking option, allowing users to choose whether to set a lock-up period. Users can withdraw ATH at any time or lock their staked ATH for a specific period to increase ATH rewards. Staking rewards are distributed weekly, with the amount depending on the lock-up period and the proportion relative to the total ATH locked in the staking pool. Users must bridge ATH from Arbitrum to the Ethereum mainnet for staking. Users who claim the airdrop and stake ATH will receive rewards in the second and third seasons of the Cloud Drop.

ATH staking users will also receive a basket of additional rewards, including various Web3 games and AI companies. Aethir has launched two staking pools: ATH Gaming and ATH AI. The former will receive tokens from Aethir's gaming partners, while the latter will receive tokens from AI partners. ATH holders can use both pools simultaneously and allocate their staked ATH.

Users will receive two types of tokens during the staking period: stATH (transferable) and veATH (non-transferable). stATH can be used on various partner platforms and protocols, while veATH is used to track the amount of staking rewards to be claimed and the initial staked tokens. To withdraw the main ATH, both veATH and stATH balances must be returned to the original staking wallet.
