When is the Hyperliquid (HYPE) airdrop?
Specifically, the announcement followed the formation of Hyperliquid Foundation, an entity that will support development of the network. Other than the DEX platform, the Hyperliquid Foundation will also help promote growth of the ecosystem.

The team plans to share more details of the upcoming airdrop at a later date.
