Airdrop Claiming Details
On Monday we shared the detailed breakdown of the eligibility criteria for the JTO token airdrop allocation. If you haven’t done so already, you can check your eligibility at jito.network/airdrop. In this blog post we share the details of the airdrop claiming process.
Claim Window
The airdrop claim window will open on December 7th, 2023 at 11am ET (Token Generation Date).
The JTO token mint address is jtojtomepa8beP8AuQc6eXt5FriJwfFMwQx2v2f9mCL.
Any eligible airdrop recipients will be able to claim their JTO tokens for 18 months, starting on the Token Generation Date. Eighteen months after Token Generation Date, unclaimed tokens will permissionlessly be transferred to the DAO treasury’s Realms wallet.
How To Claim
JitoSOL Users
Eligible recipients can initiate the JTO token claim process at https://jito.network/airdrop starting December 7th, 2023 at 11am ET (4pm UTC).
Jito-Solana Validators
Jito-Solana validators can use an open source CLI, which will be located at https://github.com/jito-foundation/distributor, to claim their unlocked and locked tokens starting on the Token Generation Date. Validators will need to sign the transaction with their identity keypair. When claiming, the JTO token will be deposited into an Associated Token Account owned by each validator’s identity. Validators can then use the spl-token program to transfer tokens to another wallet to use in governance.
As a reminder, 50% of the token allocation is available to claim at genesis, while the remaining 50% will unlock linearly over 12 months, with vesting starting on the Token Generation Date.
Jito MEV Searchers
Jito MEV searchers can also leverage the open source CLI, which will be located at https://github.com/jito-foundation/distributor, to claim their unlocked and locked tokens starting on the Token Generation Date.
