After Hyperliquid TGE, next up is the Fuel Network airdrop, with traders drawn to roll-up scaling via the new FUEL Ethereum layer-2.

Ethereum Layer-2 Rollup project Fuel has shared details regarding its native token, FUEL, which will power its upcoming rollup network.

The FUEL token will have a 10 billion supply and be issued as an Ethereum main net ERC-20 token. Twenty percent of the initial circulating supply will be allocated to its community and early supporters.

This includes participants in the Fuel Points Program and incentivized testnet, who will receive tokens at launch as an airdrop.

Statement From The Fuel Team Claims That “Launch Date Target Will Be In The Next Two Weeks

In an online post, the Fuel team said, “20% of FUEL’s total initial supply will go to our community. We’re grateful to our long-standing friends, builders, and users who have been with us since the beginning. FUEL will be released to the community based on various eligibility criteria, including participation in the Fuel Points Program and incentivized testnet. In total, over 51% of FUEL will be allocated to the community, ecosystem, and R&D.”

Interestingly, phase 2 of its Fuel Points Program is ongoing, meaning users can still earn a portion of the upcoming FUEL airdrop. There have been hints at further community incentives alongside the points program and early CEX listings for the token.

The team said, “While our community forms the backbone of Fuel, we’re eager to welcome newcomers into our ecosystem. As a result, alongside our ongoing Phase 2 Points Program, we plan to launch a community expansion effort in collaboration with Legion, Impossible Finance, and Bitget before launch.

Fuel Labs CEO Speaks On Upcoming Launch And Future Of The Network

“Launching FUEL is a pivotal moment for Fuel, as it not only secures our network but also enables us to eliminate the fundamental pain point of transaction fees that so many blockchain ecosystems face,” said Nick Dodson, CEO and co-founder of Fuel Labs.

Fuel’s Ignition network leverages its virtual machine architecture, the FuelVM. It offers performance tailored to scaling decentralized applications. It also uses a new Rust-based blockchain-oriented programming language called Sway, which is becoming increasingly popular for developing newer blockchains.

In the announcement thread on X, the team claims to already have 50+ dApps built within the Fuel ecosystem. The team has been building for a number of years now, and in September 2022, Fuel Labs raised $80 million in a funding round led by Blockchain Capital and Stratos Technologies.
