Back in 2021, AdEx Network ran one of the cleanest, most straightforward airdrops in crypto. No complicated staking, no lock-ups, no gatekeeping - just 30,000 ADX tokens split evenly among 300 people who did three simple things: joined their Telegram, followed two Twitter accounts, and added ADX to their CoinMarketCap watchlist. Each winner got exactly 100 ADX. It wasn’t flashy, but it worked. The campaign ended on August 6, 2021, and tokens were distributed by August 10. No delays. No drama. Just execution.
What Was the AdEx Network Airdrop Really About?
The 2021 airdrop wasn’t about giving away free money. It was about building a real community. AdEx Network, launched in 2017, was trying to fix digital advertising. Traditional ads are broken - big platforms take 70% of the revenue, users get tracked endlessly, and publishers barely make anything. AdEx wanted to change that with a blockchain-based ad exchange where advertisers pay publishers directly, without middlemen. The ADX token was the fuel for that system. The airdrop was their way of getting early adopters - people who cared about privacy, decentralization, and fair pay for content creators. They didn’t target whales. They didn’t reward bots. They rewarded real humans who took a few minutes to engage. That’s why the distribution was flat: 300 winners, 100 ADX each. No tiers. No VIPs. Equal chance.How ADX Tokens Work Today
As of February 2025, there are 144.04 million ADX tokens in circulation out of a total supply of 150 million. These aren’t just collectibles. They’re used in the network’s core technology: OUTPACE channels. These are off-chain payment channels built on Ethereum that let advertisers deposit funds upfront and pay publishers in real time based on actual ad interactions - clicks, views, engagements. No waiting. No disputes. Everything is tracked on-chain, but transactions happen fast and cheap off-chain. Publishers can choose to run private campaigns, hidden from public view, giving them more control. Advertisers get transparency - they see exactly where their money goes. And ADX is the currency that makes it all possible. You stake it to join as a validator. You use it to pay for ad placements. It’s not just a token - it’s the backbone of the system.The Big Shift: Enter AURA
By 2025, AdEx didn’t stop at ads. They built something bigger: AURA. Think of it as your personal AI assistant for Web3. AURA doesn’t just tell you about airdrops - it figures out which ones you’re eligible for, tracks your on-chain activity, and even suggests how to maximize your future rewards. It’s not a bot. It’s an agent that learns your behavior. AURA connects to the Bankless API to pull live airdrop data from dozens of blockchains - Ethereum, BNB Smart Chain, Mantle, and more. It checks your wallet history, sees what you’ve interacted with, and tells you: “You’ve interacted with this protocol - you qualify for their upcoming airdrop.” It even spots double-dip opportunities: “Stake here for yield, and you’ll also unlock eligibility for a future token drop.” In August 2025, AdEx launched the AURA demo. You enter your wallet address, and within seconds, you get a personalized report: your current airdrop eligibility, yield opportunities, and risk scores. To celebrate, they dropped 420 exclusive Early-Tester NFTs. All were minted in four days. These NFTs aren’t just collectibles - they unlock advanced AURA features, early access to new tools, and future reward pools.
How AURA Changed the Airdrop Game
Before AURA, finding airdrops meant scrolling through Twitter threads, joining ten Discord servers, and hoping you didn’t miss a deadline. Now, AURA automates it. But here’s the twist: AdEx doesn’t let just anyone pay to be featured. Projects can stake ADX to appear in AURA’s recommendations - but only if they pass a trust filter. Low-quality projects? They get blocked. The system doesn’t care how much money you throw at it. It cares if your project adds real value. This is a major shift from the old model. Most airdrops are bought - paid for by marketing budgets. AdEx turned it into a merit-based system. If your project is useful, you earn visibility. If you’re just spamming, you get ignored. That’s why developers are paying attention.The Hackathon and the Future
In September 2025, AdEx ran a month-long hackathon with $12,000 in prizes. Four categories. First place got $5,000. Second and third got $3,000 each. Fourth got $1,000. The goal? Build tools on top of AURA. Developers are creating SDKs, governance modules, and integrations with DeFi protocols. One team built a plugin that auto-claims airdrops based on your risk tolerance. Another created a dashboard that predicts which upcoming airdrops will have the highest ROI. AURA’s roadmap is clear: Version 1.0 was a prototype recommendation engine. Version 2.0 added real-time market insights. Version 3.0 - coming in late 2025 - will be a full AI agent that can act on your behalf. Think: “Buy this token when liquidity hits $5M,” or “Stake in this pool if your portfolio risk score drops below 30%.” It’s not sci-fi. It’s being built right now.
What Happens If You Missed the 2021 Airdrop?
You didn’t miss the boat - you just missed the first stop. The 2021 airdrop was a seed. The real growth is happening now. If you’re active in Web3, AURA is your new best friend. It’s free to use. Just connect your wallet. It’ll tell you what you’re eligible for. It’ll show you how to get more. And if you’re a developer? There’s money to be made building on AURA. AdEx didn’t just give away tokens. They built a system that keeps giving. The ADX token still powers ads. But now, it also powers AI-driven rewards. That’s the real innovation.How to Get Started with AURA Today
1. Go to the official AdEx Network website and find the AURA demo portal. 2. Connect your Ethereum, BSC, or Mantle wallet. 3. Wait for your personalized report - it takes under 30 seconds. 4. Check your eligibility for live and upcoming airdrops. 5. Use the yield suggestions to earn passive income while staying eligible for future drops. 6. If you’re a developer, join the AdEx Discord and check the hackathon repository for open SDKs and APIs. You don’t need to be a crypto expert. You don’t need to hold ADX to use AURA. You just need a wallet and curiosity.Why This Matters
Most blockchain projects chase hype. AdEx built infrastructure. First, they fixed advertising. Then, they built an AI layer on top of it. Now, they’re turning airdrop hunting from a chore into a strategic advantage. They didn’t just create a tool - they created a new way to interact with Web3. If you’re tired of chasing airdrops like a game of whack-a-mole, AURA is the answer. It’s not magic. It’s smart software built by people who understand how Web3 actually works - not how marketers say it works.Was the AdEx Network airdrop in 2021 still active?
No, the official AdEx Network airdrop through CoinMarketCap ended on August 6, 2021, with tokens distributed by August 10, 2021. It was a one-time campaign with 300 winners receiving 100 ADX each. No further distributions under that program are planned.
Can I still get free ADX tokens today?
There are no active free ADX airdrops as of December 2025. However, you can earn ADX by participating in the AdEx advertising network as a publisher or validator, or by winning prizes in ongoing hackathons. The best way to access ADX-related rewards now is through AURA, which helps you earn tokens from other projects while holding ADX.
What is AURA and how is it related to ADX?
AURA is AdEx Network’s AI-powered personal assistant for Web3, launched in 2025. It helps users find, track, and optimize airdrop eligibility across multiple blockchains. While AURA itself doesn’t give out ADX tokens, projects can stake ADX to be recommended by AURA. This makes ADX essential for visibility in the ecosystem. Holding ADX also unlocks premium features in AURA through NFTs.
Do I need to hold ADX to use AURA?
No, you don’t need to hold ADX to use AURA’s basic features. Anyone with a crypto wallet can connect and get a personalized airdrop and yield report. However, owning ADX tokens allows you to stake them for better visibility in AURA’s recommendations, and owning the Early-Tester NFT (which requires ADX to acquire) unlocks advanced tools and future rewards.
Is AURA safe to connect my wallet to?
Yes. AURA only reads your on-chain activity - it never asks for private keys, seed phrases, or permission to send transactions. It connects via read-only wallet interfaces like WalletConnect. AdEx Network is transparent about its data usage, and the system is designed to protect user privacy. Always use the official AdEx website to access AURA - avoid third-party links.
What blockchains does AURA support in 2025?
As of August 2025, AURA supports Ethereum, BNB Smart Chain (BSC), and Mantle. Support for additional chains like Polygon and Arbitrum is in development. The system uses the Bankless API to pull live airdrop data from these networks and tracks wallet interactions across them to determine eligibility.
How does AURA find unclaimed airdrops?
AURA scans on-chain activity across supported blockchains and matches it against known airdrop criteria from over 300 protocols. It looks at things like past transactions, token swaps, staking events, and governance participation. It then cross-references this with public airdrop rules and alerts you if you meet any unclaimed eligibility conditions - even if the project didn’t announce it widely.
Can AURA automatically claim airdrops for me?
Not yet. As of late 2025, AURA only identifies eligible airdrops and provides step-by-step instructions on how to claim them. Full automation is planned for Version 3.0, scheduled for late 2025, where the AI agent will execute claims on your behalf based on your risk settings and wallet permissions.
What’s the difference between the old AdEx airdrop and AURA’s rewards?
The 2021 airdrop gave away ADX tokens directly. AURA doesn’t give you ADX - it helps you earn tokens from other projects. It’s not a giveaway; it’s a strategy engine. One was a marketing campaign. The other is a long-term tool for maximizing your Web3 earnings. They serve completely different purposes.
Is AdEx Network still focused on advertising?
Yes. The core advertising infrastructure using OUTPACE channels is still live and operational. AURA is an additional layer built on top of it. AdEx hasn’t abandoned advertising - they’ve expanded it. Now, advertisers can use AURA to target users who are more likely to engage, and publishers get better payouts because the system is smarter.
