Jupiter, a Solana-based decentralized exchange aggregator, has launched an airdrop checker for its upcoming "Jupuary" airdrop. The event will reward the community with 700 million JUP tokens, valued at over $575 million. The tokens are divided among users of Jupiter products, stakers of the Jupiter token, and growth initiatives. Approximately 2 million wallets will be eligible to claim JUP tokens, with a focus on real community engagement and decentralized governance.
The JUP token claim is expected to go live next week, and this airdrop follows a previous event in January 2024. Another Jupuary event is planned for January 2026, as per the latest Jupiter DAO proposal. No formal date for the claim has been provided.
Designed to “grow the pie” and bring more users into the Jupiter ecosystem, the Jupuary airdrop event will reward the community with 700 million JUP tokens, more than $575 million worth at current prices. The 700 million JUP tokens are broken into three categories of recipients, led by “users,” a category defined by those gaining value from Jupiter products, most notably token swaps. This category of community members will receive 440 million of the JUP tokens set aside for the airdrop. An additional 60 million JUP will be claimable for stakers of the Jupiter token, with the final 200 million JUP tokens set aside for “carrots”—an allocation of tokens reserved for growth initiatives, and incentives for those who decide to hold or stake their JUP tokens.
Approximately 2 million wallets will be eligible to claim JUP tokens, according to a Jupiter Research post by Kash Dhanda, a representative for the platform.
The JUP token claim is expected to be live sometime next week, though a formal date was not provided. The platform held its first airdrop in January 2024, providing 1 billion JUP tokens to nearly 1 million wallets. It will host another Jupuary event in January 2026, pursuant to the most recently passed Jupiter DAO proposal that grants another airdrop of 700 million tokens.
