Airdrop Calendar & Tracker — August 24–30, 2026

By Marcus Hale · Editor, AirdropStat · Published Sep 3, 2026

Every project tracked this week, sorted by status. A project appears under Confirmed only if the team itself has announced the airdrop; once a date is published, it moves to Upcoming. Items under Rumored are market speculation and are marked unverified. Each row links to the source we checked — not to a claim page, which is where most phishing happens.

1. Live — claim windows open now

2. Upcoming — confirmed dates ahead

This table is not capped at the covered week or the week after it: any date a project has officially published lands here the week we verify it, however far out it sits. A calendar that hid a confirmed date would cost you a week of lead time.

Project	Ecosystem	What is confirmed	Date	Source
Crypto.com RENDER Arena	CEX promotion	$150K RENDER pool; 1,500 CRO boost threshold	Aug 29 – Sep 28, 2026	SpendNode
OKX AEON Flash Deals Lite	CEX promotion	4.1M AEON pool; lock BTC/ETH/OKB/AEON	Event Aug 31 – Sep 5, 2026	Lookonchain
Flop Network (FLOP)	AI agent economy	Testnet-activity eligibility; DID key registration; ~20% supply earmarked (preliminary)	Q4 2026 snapshot (planned)	Lookonchain

3. Confirmed — announced, no date yet

Project	Ecosystem	What is confirmed	Source
Propr (PROPR)	Hyperliquid prop trading	Genesis airdrop of 20% supply, fully unlocked at Aug 24 TGE; claim mechanics pending	CryptoCompass
Amadeus Protocol	DeFi infrastructure	Airdrop confirmed via AMA Hub Season 1; $AMA TGE targeted September 2026	Bitrue

4. Rumored — market speculation, unverified

Project	Ecosystem	The rumor	Verification status
Lighter	Ethereum L2 / perps	Community expects a points-based airdrop at mainnet graduation	No official announcement; listed as "points farming" by Alpha Drops

Reminder. Rumored entries are not confirmed by the projects involved. Nothing on this row should be treated as a fact about timing, size, or eligibility. We list them only so readers know what the market is talking about — and what has not been verified.

5. How to read this tracker

Statuses move in one direction: Rumored → Confirmed → Upcoming → Live → Closed. A project only advances when the team itself publishes the news. Dates shown are the ones each source published; where a deadline is derived by arithmetic (like GRVT's 30-day tranche clocks), we say so. Every external link is nofollow and points to the source we checked, never to a claim page. For claiming, always go through the project's official domain.

FAQ

1. What is the difference between Confirmed and Rumored?

Confirmed means the project itself has announced the airdrop. Rumored means the market is discussing one, but the project has not verified anything. Rumored items are never presented as fact on this site.

2. Why do some live claims show no deadline?

Because the project has not published an end date. That is stated explicitly rather than estimated. Open-ended windows can close with little notice, so eligible users should generally claim early.

3. Are exchange promotions tracked the same way as protocol airdrops?

They are listed in the same calendar but labeled as CEX promotions. They reward platform activity such as trading volume or token lockups, not on-chain protocol usage.

4. Why does each row link to a source instead of a claim page?

Claim pages are the most common phishing target. Linking to editorial sources keeps verification in your hands: read the source, then navigate to the official domain yourself.

5. How often is this calendar updated?

Weekly. Each edition covers the status changes observed during that specific week, and prior editions remain archived below the current one.
