Kraken-Backed Ink Foundation to Airdrop INK Token via Aave-Powered Protocol
The Ink Foundation, supported by Kraken, is set to launch its native token INK through an airdrop targeting early users of its Aave-based DeFi protocol. With a fixed supply of 1 billion tokens, INK aims to bootstrap onchain capital markets without governance-driven supply changes.
Unlike typical LAYER 2 projects, Ink maintains separation between chain governance and token utility. Its debut feature is a native liquidity protocol designed as Core DeFi infrastructure for lending and capital deployment.
The foundation claims anti-farming measures for its airdrop distribution, though INK enters a competitive market where even venture-backed tokens often struggle post-launch. The MOVE follows similar high-profile Layer 2 token launches like Linea and Blast.
