Bitget Wallet has officially launched the claim portal for the Morph & BGB Unity Airdrop, allowing eligible participants to claim their tokens until October 25. The announcement, made by Morph on social media, directs users to the Bitget Wallet platform to access the claim. This airdrop follows a significant strategic partnership between Bitget and Morph, which saw 220 million BGB tokens burned and an equal amount locked to support the Morph ecosystem.
The BGB Unity Airdrop is a direct result of Bitget's decision to transfer 440 million BGB tokens to the Morph Foundation, establishing BGB as the native gas and governance token of the Morph Layer 2 blockchain. This move aims to enhance BGB's utility and integrate it deeply within Morph's on-chain consumer finance ecosystem. Bitget and Bitget Wallet, with a combined user base of over 120 million, are bringing their full infrastructure to Morph, positioning it as a core settlement layer.
Morph, a modular Layer 2 network, launched its mainnet on October 30, 2024, aiming to make blockchain technology more accessible for consumer applications. The project has raised over $25 million from prominent funds, including Dragonfly Capital and Pantera Capital, with Bitget being an original investor. The integration of BGB as its primary token underscores a strategic alignment to drive mass adoption of on-chain consumer finance.
The airdrop is designed to reward early supporters and encourage participation in the growing Morph ecosystem. With BGB now serving as the gas and governance token, it will power payments and utility across the network, facilitating a new era of on-chain consumer finance. The Morph Foundation will oversee BGB’s long-term development roadmap, further decentralizing its governance and ensuring community involvement.
