OpenSea is reportedly preparing for an airdrop, which has been anticipated by users for some time. Discussions around the airdrop suggest it will likely be limited to users active on the platform in 2024. The airdrop's announcement has sparked various reactions, with some users expressing surprise at the news, while others believe it has been common knowledge for weeks. The company has been considering an airdrop since February 2023, but previous plans may have been shelved due to legal concerns as OpenSea Pro was introduced. The context of the airdrop reflects a shift from the extensive delays in token launches seen during the recent bear market, where many projects postponed their plans significantly.
