Kraken-Backed Ink Foundation Launches INK Token Airdrop – First Stop: Aave-Powered Liquidity Protocol

Another day, another airdrop—but this one’s got Kraken’s fingerprints all over it. The Ink Foundation, backed by the crypto exchange giant, is rolling out its INK token giveaway, starting with a liquidity protocol built on Aave. Because nothing says ''decentralized'' like a token drop orchestrated by centralized players, right?

Here’s the play: The foundation’s targeting DeFi degens first, leveraging Aave’s liquidity infrastructure to bootstrap adoption. No vague promises—just a straight shot at free tokens (with the usual strings attached).

Pro tip: Watch the gas fees. They’ll probably cost more than the airdrop itself—classic crypto efficiency.

Still, by anchoring its token to a functioning product on day one — via AAVE governance and integration — Ink is at least attempting to buck the trend of poor launches.
