How 999DEX Airdrops Work: 2,000 BlockDAG Wallets Received $999 Tokens On-Chain

What Is the 999DEX Airdrop?

999DEX — the first DEX on BlockDAG (Chain 1404) — recently completed a landmark airdrop: 2,000 active BlockDAG wallets received 1,000 $999 tokens each, fully on-chain.

Unlike most airdrops that are announced on social media and require manual claiming, this one was automatically distributed to wallets that had already demonstrated activity on the BlockDAG blockchain.

Why BlockDAG Airdrops Are Different

BlockDAG is an EVM-compatible blockchain (Chain ID 1404) with one key difference from Ethereum: no WebSocket RPC support, meaning all blockchain data is fetched via HTTP polling. This actually makes airdrops more interesting — the platform scans Transfer event logs across 300,000+ blocks to find active wallets.

The $999 Token

$999 is the native platform token of 999DEX:

  • Contract: 0x1667810674ebA5aEf308CE6cC53cf4C6CfF5E94f
  • Total supply: 100,000,000 $999
  • Use case: Stake $999 to earn 50% of all platform trading fees

On-Chain Memo: A New Airdrop Primitive

What made this airdrop technically unique: the team deployed a custom MultiSendWithMemo smart contract that embeds a message permanently on-chain as an event log alongside every transfer.

The message told recipients:

"Launch any token on 999DEX for 100 BDAG. Every time someone buys or sells your token — now or in 5 years — you earn 0.5% of every single trade. Forever."

This is queryable on bdagscan.com forever.

How to Qualify for Future Airdrops

  1. Be active on BlockDAG Mainnet (any ERC-20 transaction qualifies)
  2. Connect your wallet to 999dex.com
  3. Stake or trade to stay active

What Recipients Can Do With $999

  • Stake at 999dex.com/staking to earn BDAG from platform fees
  • Trade on the bonding curve DEX
  • Hold — supply is fixed at 100M, no more minting

The 999DEX airdrop is one of the first on BlockDAG and likely not the last. The platform is live at 999dex.com on Chain 1404.

Risk warning: Crypto assets are highly volatile. Never invest more than you can afford to lose.
