The Meteora Airdrop & MET Token
The Meteora Airdrop rewarded early community members and liquidity providers with MET tokens — the native governance token powering the entire Meteora Ag ecosystem on Solana.
About the Meteora Airdrop
The Meteora Airdrop was one of the most anticipated token distribution events in the Solana DeFi ecosystem. Announced as part of the Phoenix Rising Plan, the airdrop allocated 15% of the total MET token supply to community members who actively contributed to the Meteora ecosystem through liquidity provision, trading, and governance participation.
The Token Generation Event (TGE) took place in October 2025, with 48% of airdrop tokens available immediately at launch and the remaining tokens vesting over subsequent months. This structured approach ensured sustainable token distribution while rewarding early supporters of Meteora Ag.
Following the successful Meteora Airdrop, the MET token was listed on Binance, one of the world's largest cryptocurrency exchanges, providing global liquidity and accessibility for the Meteora community.
