Polymarket CEO has set the crypto X abuzz with a cryptic tweet hinting at a potential POLY token launch, with some community members speculating it could be the biggest airdrop ever.
Summary
Coplan’s tweet triggered speculation about a new token and potential airdrop for Polymarket users.
With 1.35 million active traders, the airdrop could be one of the largest in terms of sheer number of recipients.
Polymarket CEO Shayne Coplan has sparked buzz across the crypto community after he posted a cryptic tweet hinting at a possible POLY token. In the post, Coplan listed BTC, ETH, BNB, SOL before ending with “POLY”, suggesting something big might be brewing for the prediction market platform.
The tweet also included a repost from user @0xNairolf, featuring data from the Kaito (KAITO) analytics dashboard. According to the dashboard, Polymarket currently holds a 2.46% share, trailing only behind Bitcoin (8.39%), BNB (7.35%), Solana (6.13%), and Ethereum (5.26%) — making it the fifth most talked-about crypto project.
Potential Polymarket airdrop could be massive
Coplan’s tweet ignited a flurry of speculation on crypto X about a potential POLY token airdrop, with one user saying, “Polymarket could easily end up being the biggest airdrop ever. Position yourself accordingly.”
With 1.35 million active traders, a potential POLY airdrop could indeed be massive, making it one of the largest in terms of sheer number of recipients.
However, only a small fraction of Polymarket users are high-volume or highly active. Traders with over $1,000 in PNL make up just 0.51% of all wallets, while those with trading volumes exceeding $50,000 account for only 1.74% of users.
This suggests that the airdrop—if it happens—could be enormous in total token distribution, but, as is typical in crypto, only a handful of participants would likely receive the lion’s share.
