The Celestia mainnet, the first modular data availability network, is scheduled to launch at 14:00 on October 31 UTC. This highly anticipated event will not only mark the debut of Celestia, but it will also introduce its native token, TIA, to the market. In a move that has caught the attention of many, Celestia plans to distribute 60 million tokens, which accounts for 6% of the tokens in circulation, through an airdrop. This is one of the most significant airdrops witnessed in 2023.
The airdrop is exclusive to active users on Ethereum Layer 2s Cosmos Hub and Osmosis. The snapshot of the airdrop was taken on January 1, 2023, ensuring that eligible users can receive their fair share of TIA tokens. The confirmation of the Celestia network’s launch date and time comes from reputable sources such as The Block, as well as Celestia’s GitHub repository, which clearly outlines its launch timeline.
