Binance launches $800,000 XRP airdrop for RLUSD holders across Earn, Margin, and Futures accounts.
DeFi & Yields ·
Binance has launched an airdrop campaign distributing $800,000 in XRP to users holding Ripple USD (RLUSD) across the platform's Earn, Margin, and Futures accounts. The rewards will be distributed weekly every Friday, with the campaign beginning July 17, 2026 at 00:00 UTC. All eligible RLUSD holders on Binance will share in the prize pool.
The airdrop arrives during a period of mixed activity in XRP markets. Binance's XRP reserves have fallen to their lowest level since February, holding 2.61 billion tokens, while XRP's price has stabilized around $1.11. The reserve decline may reflect ongoing distribution or market dynamics, though causality between reserve levels and the airdrop remains unclear.
The specific eligibility criteria for participation—such as minimum RLUSD holdings, account status requirements, or any fee structures—have not been detailed in available announcements. How the weekly distributions will be calculated or whether holding periods affect reward amounts also remains unspecified.
