What is the Airdrop ratio for Bubblemaps? Will it create selling pressure in the market?

In the token BMT economic model of the blockchain data visualization platform Bubblemaps, 22.2% of the tokens are allocated for airdrops, which amounts to 222 million out of a total supply of 1 billion. This proportion is significantly higher than the industry average (usually 5% - 15%), raising market concerns about potential selling pressure. However, the project party has implemented a tiered release mechanism and community value binding strategy to incentivize early users while also attempting to control the selling risk within a reasonable range.

##Airdrop Structure: Layered Release to Alleviate Centralized Selling Pressure The Airdrop of Bubblemaps is not a one-time release, but rather a phased and targeted fine distribution:

1. Binance HODLer Airdrop (3%): 30 million BMT has been distributed to eligible BNB holding users since its launch on March 18, and this portion of the Token has entered a fully circulating state;
2. The second phase of HODLer Airdrop (3%): An additional 30 million Tokens are planned to be released in batches starting from September 18 (6 months after listing), with a delayed distribution mechanism that effectively disperses the selling pressure;
3. Moonlight users and community Airdrop (16.2%): The remaining portion is mainly targeted at early Moonlight holders and test users, adopting a 12-month phased unlocking strategy, with only 25% released at TGE, and the rest gradually distributed on a monthly or quarterly basis.

This structure avoids a massive influx of tokens into the market in the short term, providing a buffer period for price stability.

Initial Market Performance: Airdrop Catalyzes Short-term Surge

When BMT was listed on Binance on March 18, the market reacted very enthusiastically:

• Price skyrocketed by 100% in 24 hours, trading volume surged by 230%;
• Airdrop recipients show a clear short-term reluctance to sell, as the community expects subsequent ecological incentives and governance rights;
• Binance liquidity support and "seed tag" exposure further attracted buying pressure, offsetting some selling pressure.

This phenomenon indicates that Airdrop played more of a market enthusiasm catalyst in the early stages, rather than simply being a source of selling pressure.

##Selling Pressure Risk Assessment: Long-term Attention Required on Three Major Variables Although the release mechanism alleviates short-term risks, long-term selling pressure still has uncertainties, which mainly depends on:

1. Token utility conversion rate: BMT holders can participate in governance voting and research proposals through the IntelDesk platform. If the activity level of this feature is insufficient, users may tend to sell;
2. The second batch of Airdrop release in September: The distribution rhythm of 30 million Tokens (such as single release or monthly distribution) will directly affect market sentiment;
3. Comparison of Airdrop Yield Rates of Competing Products: If the airdrop yield of other projects during the same period is higher, some users may sell BMT to participate in new opportunities.

As of July 18, on-chain data shows that the on-chain movement frequency of early Airdrop Tokens is low, indicating that most holders are in a wait-and-see state.

##Ecological Value Support: How Airdrops Reinvest in Long-Term Development Airdrop is not only a distribution method but also a core part of the Bubblemaps ecological strategy:

• User Conversion Tools: Airdrops attract on-chain analysis users to use their visualization tools (such as Bubble Maps, Magic Nodes), converting token recipients into product users;
• Decentralized governance: 22.2% broad distribution allows the community to decide the priority of investigations through BMT voting, promoting decentralized governance of the platform;
• Cross-chain liquidity foundation: Since 88% of BMT is deployed on Solana and 12% on BNB Chain, airdrop users naturally become liquidity providers on both chains.

##BMT Latest Market Trends According to Gate market data, as of July 18, the current price of BMT Token is $0.086, with a 24-hour decline of 1.6%. The current circulating market value of BMT is $22 million, ranking 1,020 in the entire market.

• Price resilience is evident: After the pullback from the March peak, BMT has stabilized in the range of 1.2 - 1.5 USD for nearly 1 month, with volatility lower than that of newly listed tokens during the same period.
• Unlock progress tracking: A portion of the Moonlight Airdrop has entered the 4th batch of release (accounting for 7% of the total Airdrop), with no large-scale on-chain transfers occurring;
• Ecosystem Progress: The IntelDesk platform initiated 14 community voting surveys in Q2, with over 42,000 participating addresses, enhancing governance activity.

##Conclusion: Value Game in Dynamic Balance The 22.2% airdrop ratio of Bubblemaps is a double-edged sword: on one hand, the high ratio brings ongoing selling pressure expectations; on the other hand, the layered release and governance binding mechanism turn it into fuel for ecological growth. From the current data, the project party has partially achieved the conversion of airdrop users into core participants through token economics design.

The next 3 months are a key observation period: the release strategy for the second batch of airdrops in September, and whether the IntelDesk platform can continue to enhance user stickiness, will determine whether BMT can break out of the "high airdrop - high sell pressure" fatal cycle. If the ability to capture ecological value continues to strengthen, BMT is still expected to rely on its on-chain analysis essential scenarios to build a long-term value curve amidst fluctuations.
