Succinct Announces $PROVE Airdrop
The Succinct Foundation opened registration for its upcoming $PROVE token airdrop. Eligible users can now check their eligibility and register for the airdrop using a wallet address, Discord, X, or GitHub account. The registration window will remain open until August 3, 2025, at 7 PM UTC, and registering is mandatory in order to claim $PROVE once it launches. Eligible users include participants in the network’s testnet stages, top community members on Discord and X, developers who have contributed to key ZK and open source repositories, X affiliates of partner protocols, and certain users from leading rollups that integrate with Succinct’s Prover Network.
