Chainlink has announced a new cryptocurrency program called Chainlink Rewards. This program is designed to reward community participation and activity. The initiative was launched in collaboration with Space and Time (SXT).
This program allows Chainlink Build projects to claim native tokens for Chainlink participants, especially LINK Stakers.
Chainlink Rewards, SXT Airdrop Details
Space and Time is the first participating Build project. The project plans to distribute 200 million SXT tokens through the program, which is 4% of the total SXT token supply.
The initial 100 million SXT can be claimed on May 8, 2025. Both current and past LINK Stakers are eligible for this airdrop claim.
Additionally, the claiming period for the first distribution, Season Genesis, will last 90 days. Remaining tokens and unclaimed supply may be released in future reward seasons.

Chainlink Rewards expands the scope of the Build program. It connects Build projects with community participants to increase adoption.
The airdrop program supports active users and node operators who contribute to the security and operation of the Chainlink network.
Space and Time joined the Build program in September 2022. Since then, it has grown a decentralized database solution using zero-knowledge proofs to provide data analytics for smart contracts.
The project supported integrating Chainlink features in 2024 to provide zero-knowledge proof queries on-chain.
Meanwhile, Chainlink confirmed that other Build projects may provide token rewards to ecosystem participants in future reward events. The Season Genesis claiming period will start on May 8, 2025.
Therefore, eligible LINK Stakers can access reward distribution through official Chainlink channels.
Several new cryptocurrency airdrop programs were announced in May 2025. Recently, the meme coin project FLOKI announced a RICE token airdrop for FLOKI holders.
ZORA also started a very interesting airdrop on the Base network, following the high interest in content coins.
