Initia announced a 50 million INIT token airdrop ahead of its mainnet launch, with roughly 90% of the allocation directed to testnet participants. The airdrop equals 5% of INIT’s 1 billion total supply, according to Initia’s tokenomics documentation and multiple launch-time reports. The largest share, about 44.7 million INIT, went to users who took part in Initia’s 2024 testnet phases, while smaller portions were reserved for ecosystem users from partner networks such as LayerZero, IBC, and MilkyWay, plus social contributors active across community channels. The distribution matters because it was a core part of Initia’s launch strategy: it rewarded early network testing and community participation while helping seed activity around the new layer-1 and its appchain-oriented ecosystem.
