Three leading blockchain entities—Zama, MEXC, and Sahara AI—are distributing cryptocurrency airdrops backed by substantial funding, highlighting innovations in encryption, exchange incentives, and decentralized artificial intelligence.
Zama is advancing Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) technology with a $130 million funding round and a $1 billion valuation. The project will launch its public testnet on July 1 and reward select users through an airdrop, enhancing blockchain privacy and security frameworks.
Cryptocurrency exchange MEXC is running an exclusive airdrop campaign from June 17 to July 17, 2025, offering immediate bonuses and long-term fee rebates to drive user engagement and platform activity.
Sahara AI is allocating 5% of its SAHARA tokens to early contributors, supported by $51.5 million in funding. This initiative aims to build a decentralized AI ecosystem prioritizing user privacy and autonomous operations.
Investor confidence remains high, with Zama backed by Pantera Capital and Solana co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko, while Sahara AI secured funding from Binance Labs and Polychain Capital.
These airdrops reflect broader industry trends, including the integration of cutting-edge cryptographic solutions like FHE, the expansion of decentralized AI networks, and strategic community incentivization across blockchain platforms.
