A Solana-based trading platform just kicked off an interesting seasonal campaign with a gamified twist. The 12 Days of Christmas promo is dangling over 1000 SOL in total rewards—roughly $130K worth—for active traders. What's catching attention: this looks like a deliberate play to build early adoption, with hints pointing toward airdrops for past participants and a V1 mainnet launch slated for early 2026. The mechanics seem solid—combining seasonal engagement with real prize pools to draw in users before the full platform rollout.

130K smashed down to grab users, this technique is indeed a bit ruthless, but the V1 mainnet has to wait until the beginning of 26... Is it really fake?

130k to attract new users? That's a pretty clever move, but there aren't many projects that genuinely focus on building mechanisms now...

Wait a minute... 1000 SOL? I need to calculate how much gas I need to spend now to participate in this event...
Staying up late again to watch the gwei, and this time I have to use a cross-chain bridge. Just thinking about it gives me a headache.
Money-saving tip: Wait a bit, maybe the official will run a gas-free test window.
Early participant airdrop? Then I need to check the historical records to see if I’ve been missed... So exhausting.

Is it 1000 SOL? Sounds pretty good, but I've seen this kind of activity pattern many times. Early user base = the list of later 'chives' (retail investors).
Only launching mainnet in 2026? So this wave now is just to attract users...
Wait, are they planning to airdrop to early participants? That’s the key—getting in early is definitely worth it.
The biggest risk with this kind of gamified activity is people running off halfway, but the Solana ecosystem at least is fairly transparent.
Why wait until next year? Can’t they launch now? Feels a bit sluggish.
A $130K USD investment in the event shows they’re serious, unlike some projects that just do whatever casually.

130k dropped really hard, Christmas harvesting is now so extravagant
The old routine of building the foundation early, airdrops expecting to recruit people, this game is played quite openly
Wait, V1 mainnet has to wait until next year? So are these rewards now… free during the testing phase?
The Solana ecosystem is heating up again, gotta hop on quickly

A prize pool of 130k, just for early bloodsucking? Clever.
---
Wait, airdrops to previous participants? Why didn't I receive any?
---
Another tactic in the Solana ecosystem, first attract users then cut the leeks.
---
1200 SOL in 12 days of activity, how much money was poured in?
---
Gamification + real money, does it seem like they're really playing this time? But we have to wait until 2026 for mainnet…
---
So my participation now is just for the 2026 airdrop pre-sale, right?
---
Both Solana and GameFi, this guy's combo punch is pretty slick.
---
130k sounds like a lot, on average how much can a trader get? Feels like it's been diluted again.
---
Some substance, but why wait until Christmas to hold activities? Isn't early promotion better?
---
Seasonal events + airdrop expectations, this tactic works well in Web3.

A prize pool of 130k... Just looking at the number, it's okay, but I'm worried it might be another inflated air coin scam.
