Kraken → Ink → Nado might be the fattest airdrop play of 2026
Look, I usually don't get this hyped about airdrops.
But this one's different.
On ThreadGuy's stream, the advisor for Ink and Nado straight up confirmed it.
Kraken's L2 (Ink) drops in 6-8 months.
Nado users get a significant chunk of the allocation.
Not "might get." WILL get.
Here's why you should care
Accounts are tied to your Kraken wallet.
Trade on Nado = you're farming Ink tokens.
Simple as that.
Why this isn't just rumors
Kraken is prepping for IPO in H1 2026.
They just closed an $800M round at a $20B valuation.
Backers: Jane Street, DRW, Citadel Securities, Tribe Capital, HSG.
Kraken's revenue in 2024: $1.5B
2025? Already higher.
You know what that means?
IPO + Native L2 + Token = classic playbook
They need:
Liquidity flowing into the ecosystem
Metrics going up and to the right
User incentives that actually work
@inkonchain + @nadoHQ is their on-chain showcase for the token.
They're not doing some weak 0.5% supply airdrop for farmers.
They need their L2 to pop BEFORE the IPO.
What this actually means
If you're already on Nado — keep going.
If not — now's the time.
Volume on Nado will likely be the key metric.
Not positions held. Not time staked.
Volume traded.
Why I'm buying this narrative
Too many pieces fit:
✓ Official confirmation from the advisor ✓ $800M raise happening right now ✓ IPO on the horizon ✓ KYC-wallet binding (sybil protection) ✓ Real infrastructure, not another Uniswap fork
This isn't a hype project that dies in a week.
This is a top-5 CEX going public.
What to do
Get a Kraken account if you don't have one
Bridge to Ink (testnet now, mainnet soon)
Generate volume on Nado
Don't spread thin — farm ONE account hard
This isn't a quantity play.
It's quality.
One wallet. Maximum effort.
And yeah, this isn't financial advice.
But if Kraken is really going public and needs to pump their L2 metrics...
The airdrop won't be symbolic.
It'll be fat.
Because they need people talking about it.
Your thoughts?
Already farming Nado or still watching from the sidelines?
What volume are you pushing?
