Saga, a gaming-centric network, initiated its airdrop claim process on Wednesday, including Avalanche, Solana, Cosmos, Celestia, and Polygon.
This airdrop is eligible for over 200,000 unique wallets from those networks. The airdrop enables winners of its recent three-month play-to-airdrop competitions and certain crypto stakers to claim SAGA tokens.
The claims page is now accessible. Users can claim 60 million SAGA tokens until March 27. However, regional restrictions apply, specifically excluding citizens and residents of the United States.
Competitions for airdrop opportunities featured games from Saga’s testnet and other popular games from different chains, such as the card game Parallel and the shooter Shrapnel.
As detailed in Saga’s eligibility guide, Saga has allocated airdrop tokens to users who staked the native cryptocurrencies of Avalanche, Polygon, Celestia (TIA), and Cosmos (ATOM) during specified periods in 2023.
Saga, which has previously announced collaborations with Avalanche (AVAX) and Polygon (MATIC), positions itself as a platform for launching new chains.
“We’re in a really unique position to do it because we’re one of the few chains that has focused on the gaming use case that is not yet live,” Saga CEO and Co-Founder Rebecca Liao said. “And so we have that massive airdrop that can be done at Genesis. That has been enormously helpful for something like a play-to-airdrop mechanism.”
According to Liao, while the network’s primary focus is not limited to gaming, approximately 80% of early development on the testnet has been in the gaming sector.
