Hyperliquid, a decentralized trading platform, is facing criticism from users regarding its recent airdrop policy. Users have reported that the platform is geofencing high-volume users, similar to practices seen with other platforms like dYdX. While Hyperliquid is not blocking VPN users from trading, it is preventing them from claiming tokens, leading to frustration among users who feel unfairly restricted. Some users have expressed concerns about being misidentified based on their location, which could affect their eligibility for the airdrop. Additionally, there are reports of users needing to travel abroad to accept the airdrop, with one user claiming to have 40,000 points at stake. The situation has sparked discussions about the platform's airdrop claim processes and user accessibility.
