Excitement brews in the cryptocurrency community as Ethena experiences a notable 9% surge in value today. However, amidst this upward momentum, significant developments regarding token distribution and market dynamics have come to light.
In a move to enhance token distribution and decentralization, Ethena has implemented a phased airdrop strategy. The top 2000 Ethena holders will see 50% of their tokens locked in the initial phase of the airdrop, with the remainder gradually unlocking over a span of six months. The first phase of airdrops, unlocking in the first month, commenced on May 2nd, signaling the beginning of token distribution.

Galaxy Digital Acquires 2.34 Million Ethena Tokens
Adding to the intrigue, financial powerhouse Galaxy Digital has made a substantial move in the Ethena market. Just hours ago, Galaxy Digital applied for the acquisition of 2.34 million Ethena tokens, valued at $1.99 million. Following this acquisition, Galaxy Digital deposited the entirety of the acquired tokens onto the Binance exchange.
Despite the significant purchase by Galaxy Digital, the price of Ethena has experienced a notable decline of 46.7% from its peak, dropping from $1.54 to $0.82. Despite this correction, sentiment remains bullish on the daily chart, indicating ongoing optimism regarding Ethena’s long-term prospects.
The intersection of token distribution dynamics and institutional investment highlights the evolving landscape of the cryptocurrency market. As Ethena continues to capture attention and attract interest from both retail and institutional investors, market participants remain vigilant, eagerly anticipating further developments and potential opportunities in the ever-evolving crypto space.
