Near Protocol
[email protected] Milestone Incentive Program

The [email protected] Milestone Incentive Program represents a unique milestone-based airdrop structure for users leveraging the Confidential Intents architecture. Participants were required to maintain a time-weighted confidential balance of over $100 and execute active cross-chain swaps on the platform. Eligibility and scoring were dynamically updated until the ecosystem hit a strict $70 million TVL trigger, as documented in the official rules.

A total reward pool of 333,333 NEAR was allocated for Drop 1, with an absolute per-wallet cap set at 2% - effectively limiting the maximum individual reward to approximately 6,666.66 tokens. To enhance the user experience, ecosystem partners integrated robust tracking tools, allowing users to monitor their allocations and referral standing directly through the Meteor app.

Rather than an instant liquid distribution, earned milestone tokens were locked until a specific market condition was met. Once the NEAR token maintained a 3-day VWAP at or above $3.33, the protocol automatically executed a 1:1 conversion, distributing the unlocked native assets directly to eligible accounts on September 21, 2026. Users can verify the final completed distribution via the official completion announcement.
