Project Overview
Airdrop Status
Somnia conducted a testnet reward program with SOMI Points distribution. The Proof of Humanity verification ran August 8-12, 2025, requiring participants to connect wallets and link accounts for 30 points. Main testnet activities closed before the reward date of September 2, 2025. Participants earned points through daily GM check-ins, test token transactions (STT), token swaps, liquidity provision, smart contract deployment, and interactions with testnet dApps including QuickSwap, Somnia Boom (gaming), Nerzo (NFTs), and Quills (social messaging). An Airdrop Eligibility Checker tool exists at claims.somnia.network. Guild tasks and Somnia Devnet (launched November 15, 2024) provided additional point-earning opportunities. While no official SOMI token launch has been confirmed, the SOMI ticker is referenced across multiple platforms, and Binance announced HODLer Airdrops for SOMI with retroactive BNB Simple Earn subscriptions. Token allocation includes 10.945% unlocked at TGE for community initiatives, liquidity, and airdrops, followed by monthly linear vesting for 36 months.

Latest Research Signals
Somnia: Layer 1 blockchain with 400K+ TPS, sub-second finality. $270M from a16z, SoftBank, DCG. Testnet rewards distributed Sept 2025. Gaming/metaverse focus. Binance HODLer Airdrop.
Scoring Notes
Somnia Network has SOMI token live on exchanges (Binance, BitMart, Bybit) with current price $0.11, down 93.9% from ATH of $1.84 (Sep 7, 2025). Market cap is $18M with FDV of $112.5M and only 16-24% of supply circulating. Strong backing from a16z, SoftBank, Improbable, MSquared, and Mirana verified. Audited by Hacken. Token was distributed via Binance HODLer Airdrops. The Somnia Claim Portal (claim.somnia.network) still appears active for SOMI/USDC rewards. Product is technically ambitious (1M TPS L1) but severe post-launch price decline and leadership changes signal significant weakness. Sources: coingecko.com/en/coins/somnia, somnia.network, claim.somnia.network. Confidence: medium.
[Archive decision: ACTIVE. Active: SOMI token launched via Binance HODLer Airdrop; claim portal still operational, residual claim opportunities remain.]
