Meteora Unveils $MET Tokenomics With 47% Circulating at Launch
Meteora reveals plans for a MET token airdrop and outlines tokenomics, with a focus on liquidity distributor claims and a pre-market valuation of $13.5–$15 billion.
Meteora, a Solana-based DeFi protocol, will launch its MET token airdrop on October 16, 2025, at 20:00 Beijing time, offering users the chance to claim liquidity distributor NFTs or MET tokens. The protocol's annual profit exceeds $32 million, with the MET token's pre-market valuation ranging from $13.5 billion to $15 billion. Tokenomics involve 48% unlocked at the Token Generation Event (TGE) and 52% locked for six years, with a unique liquidity distribution option that allows users to claim tokens as liquidity positions for additional fees, though it carries the risk of impermanent loss.
- Token Generation Event (TGE): A scheduled event where the initial distribution of a cryptocurrency's tokens takes place, often involving the release of a portion of the total supply to the public.
- Liquidity Distributor: A mechanism that allows users to claim tokens as liquidity positions, earning additional fees but potentially facing impermanent loss.
- Impermanent Loss: A temporary loss that liquidity providers may experience when providing assets to a liquidity pool, due to price fluctuations in the paired assets.
