Paradex will launch its genesis airdrop on March 5th; its token economics have been updated.

PANews reported on March 5th that the Paradex Foundation announced on its X platform that its native token, DIME, will launch its genesis airdrop on March 5th. Eligible users can claim the airdrop through the Paradex user interface within two weeks starting at 15:00 Beijing time on March 5th. Initial trading will exclusively open on the Paradex platform at 22:00 Beijing time on March 5th.

Regarding token economics, two adjustments have been made since the initial plan was released in December 2024: the community airdrop allocation has been increased from 20% to 25%, with this increase coming from the extended activity in Q2 2025; the Foundation acquired 4.4% of the total supply by purchasing XP from institutional holders. These two adjustments reduce the circulating supply at TGE by 4.4% to 24.5%, while increasing the allocation for all future quarters through ongoing community rewards. Regarding team token allocation, 80% will be unlocked based on performance, rather than solely on time, with the remaining 20% ​​unlocking over a four-year period. The full performance framework will be released after TGE.

Paradex's recent roadmap includes: expanding zero-fee perpetual contracts to RWA assets such as commodities, forex, stocks, and indices; launching periodic options to enhance its derivatives product line; and integrating Paradigm's institutional RFQ network to introduce large-scale liquidity.
