When it comes to the annual event in the crypto market, nothing beats those unexpected airdrop feastings. These projects, with their innovative models and ecosystem value, have brought many surprises to early participants.

Looking back at the trajectory of airdrops over the past few years—2020’s Uniswap $UNI was eye-catching, followed closely by ENS $ENS in 2021. In 2022, Aptos $APT emerged suddenly, and in 2023, Arbitrum took the stage. 2024 is the era of Hyperliquid, and 2025 is the turn of Lighter.

But this sequence seems to be continuing. There’s a project called Sentient that recently secured $85 million in seed funding, backed by top-tier venture capital firms. Interestingly, Sandeep, co-founder of Polygon, also joined this team to build an open-source AGI platform called DeAI. According to the plan, the token generation event (TGE) for this project was postponed from 2025 to 2026 mainly to prevent bots from cheating and to ensure fair airdrop distribution. Although the wait has been extended, market anticipation for it is actually heating up.

Now it’s your turn to decide whether to pay attention to this potential next opportunity.
