With the launch of Plume Genesis, we wanted to take a moment to walk through Plume’s Airdrop plans and community incentives program.
In this post, we’ll both recap the previous phase and look ahead to the next phase in Plume’s Airdrop Season 1, as well as explain more about how Season 2 will work. Genesis is here, and we’re excited to reward those who helped us get here! For those new to the Plume journey, we’ll let you know what’s in store.
Plume’s TGE was in January 2025, and the results were nothing short of extraordinary.
We had participants from our 18 million-wallet strong testnet program, which processed over 280 million transactions. They also came from our three pre-TGE RWAfi vault programs with more than $50 million in TVL, from various established and emerging RWA-adjacent projects in the space, and from our active community of members in the ever-expanding Plume Discord server.
Out of all eligible wallets, we had a claim rate of over 96% - a testament to our engaged community of Goons! Of those who were eligible, close to 50% believed in the Plume vision so much that they elected to defer their claim for a boost. Thank you for believing in us - we’re excited to keep building and pioneering RWAfi with you all.
During our TGE in January, you were able to choose from two options:
Upon mainnet launch, your airdrop becomes accessible as early as day 0 (with mainnet activity) or as late as day 90 (with no mainnet activity). Now that we've covered the basics, let's dive into how you can engage with mainnet to claim your base allocation and boost early.
If you're in either group above, you'll receive a special surprise when you connect to the Plume Portal. You'll be awarded up to 20% of your base allocation to claim immediately – with those who deferred their initial claim eligible for higher amounts than those who already claimed. This comes with a fully sponsored gas grant on Plume mainnet.
We hope this kickstarts your Plume mainnet journey and helps you earn even more rewards. For those who participated in airdrop staking and held funds until the April 30th, 2025 snapshot when the claim page was paused – your reward is included in the Plume boost number on the claim page, and your original tokens remain withdrawable through the same interface.
Once you claim your day 1 gift, another exciting offer awaits you on the Plume Portal. But first, we’ll introduce Plume Points (PP). You can read more in our Portal guide published here.
You'll earn PP for active Plume mainnet usage: TVL, volume, swaps, transactions, unique dApp interactions, staking, and referrals. Consistent weekly activity earns even more PP. This is how we track and reward your participation – and PP plays a key role in early airdrop access.
After claiming your day 1 amount, you'll see 2 exclusive offers on the Portal – available only to Season 1 airdrop users for 72 hours after their claim:
10x Staking Multiplier: Stake any amount of PLUME (up to what you just claimed) for a 10x PP multiplier valid for 90 days. This means you'll earn 10x more PP per staked PLUME than non-Season 1 users. This can be a great way for you to boost your activity and get early access to your base allocation and boost.
10x Quest Multiplier: Earn 10x PP on each quest in our Level Up program – that's 500 PP per quest versus the normal 50 PP. Our Level Up program is a way for you to learn and engage with various RWAfi workflows in the Plume ecosystem while earning rewards, including Plume Points.
Here's your path to faster access – the Claim Party!
You'll be grouped with ~100 other Season 1 Goons to compete through mainnet activities. Earn PP to climb your group's leaderboard – the most active members of the group for each week get early access to their full base allocation and PLUME boost. After 90 days, the entire group gains access.
So to summarize:
While you're earning Plume Points to climb the Claim Party leaderboard, those same points count toward your share in Season 2 rewards.
As part of the Season 2 incentive program, we're allocating 150,000,000 PLUME (separate from your existing Season 1 allocations) for both the Plume Points program and direct PLUME incentives via Royco and Merkl campaigns. You can read more about these campaigns here.
For those not part of Season 1, your PP earns you a direct share in Season 2 rewards and PLUME incentives – there's something for everyone.
We're excited to welcome you to Plume Genesis as we conclude Season 1 and launch Season 2. Let's usher in the next era of crypto with the RWAfi revolution.

A quick note on overall eligibility: your wallet must be part of the whitelisted + registered list and must have participated in the airdrop season 1 part 1 claim in January to be eligible for airdrop season 1 part 2. Standard anti-sybill measures were put in place back then which apply now as well, since the list of wallets participating in season 1 part 2 are the same. For those not part of Season 1, please take note of the comments above on Season 2 which is kicking off now a well - this is absolutely something you can be eligible for. Lastly, standard geo-restrictions apply for the USA and all OFAC sanctioned countries.
