Key Points:
The Arbitrum airdrop has been claimed at Ethereum block 18208000. Just 30 minutes ago, an astonishing 69,448,385 ARB tokens, equivalent to $56.54 million, were transferred from the airdrop contract to the DAO treasury.
At the time of writing, Coinmarketcap reports that the price of ARB is trading at $0.81. Six months ago, CoinCu reported that on March 23, Arbitrum distributed its governance token with the ticker ARB to its community members, a significant step towards complete decentralization.
The ARB token’s release and airdrop were highly anticipated, but the launch faced an issue during the first hour. Arbitrum’s official airdrop page experienced problems as a surge of users attempted to claim their tokens simultaneously.
Some persevering users resorted to alternate methods like Arbiscan. With a substantial number of Arbitrum tokens airdropped, a massive sell-off of ARB tokens ensued shortly after the successful token unlock.
ARB’s value plummeted from over $10.29 to as low as $1 on the Kucoin platform. Similarly, on ByBit, the cryptocurrency started trading at $7.50 but quickly dropped to $1.5 within minutes.
