ChainCatcher reports that, according to an official announcement, Berachain's liquid staking protocol Infrared has released details of its IR token airdrop. This airdrop aims to reward early community members who have consistently used Infrared during the points program, participants in the Boyco pre-deposit program, and users who actively participate in community activities (such as Discord interactions, user surveys, community events, testnet participation, etc.).
The IR token has three main functions: staking to earn sIR for governance voting rights; participating in revenue sharing through buybacks; and token issuance to optimize protocol efficiency and revenue. Users can claim the airdrop in advance through the CEX pre-deposit process. The three centralized exchanges participating in the pre-deposit are Bitget, Gate, and KuCoin.
Important dates are as follows: The centralized exchange pre-deposit window opens on December 16th at 1:00 AM (UTC+8) and closes on December 17th at 4:00 PM (UTC+8), marking the official launch of the IR token. All claims will permanently close on January 12th, 2026 at 8:00 AM (UTC+8).
