# The STABLE Airdrop *Airdrop claims will open on Monday, December 8, 2025 at 12:00 UTC and close on Monday, March 2, 2026 at 12:00 UTC. Please note that all airdrop details are subject to change and will be updated through official Stable channels.* By [Stable](https://blog.stable.xyz) · 2025-12-08 --- **Introduction** ---------------- As Stable enters its next phase of network growth, we are pleased to announce the STABLE Airdrop. This distribution recognizes the users, builders, and ecosystem participants who contributed to the early development of Stable as a stablecoin-native settlement layer. The airdrop allocates tokens to users who held vault receipts from the two pre-deposit phases, as well as to users who deployed those receipts into integrated vaults on Morpho, Pendle, and Uniswap. Allocations are determined across several eligibility categories. Participants who qualify through multiple categories are eligible to receive the combined total of their allocations. **Claim Portal** ---------------- The claim portal is live at: 🔗 [**https://app.merkl.xyz/users/**](https://app.merkl.xyz/users/) **This is the only valid claim portal for the STABLE airdrop.** Any alternate website or tool claiming to facilitate a claim should be assumed to be fraudulent. The portal will remain open until **March 2, 2026 at 12:00 UTC**. There is **no advantage to claiming early**, so please take your time, verify links carefully, and proceed only through official Stable resources. **How to Claim Your Stable Airdrop** ==================================== This guide walks you through connecting to the Stable network, bridging the required assets, and claiming your airdrop via Merkl. If you’re already familiar with EVM chains, the process will feel very similar. **1\. Getting Started on Stable** --------------------------------- Before claiming your airdrop, your wallet needs to be connected to the Stable network. You can find all official network parameters, including RPC endpoint, Chain ID, block explorer, and token metadata on the Stable Network Reference page: 🔗 [**https://hub.stable.xyz/guide**](https://hub.stable.xyz/guide) This page also provides an easy way to add the STABLE token to your wallet so your airdrop tokens appear once claimed. * Contract: 0x0000000000000000000000000000000000001003 * Symbol: STABLE * Decimals: 18 Once your wallet is prepared, proceed to the next step to add the official Stable network details. **2\. Add & Connect to the Stable Network in Your Wallet** ---------------------------------------------------------- Using your preferred EVM wallet (MetaMask, Rabby, etc.), add the Stable network using the parameters provided on the Network Info page: * **RPC Endpoint:** [https://rpc.stable.xyz](https://rpc.stable.xyz) * **Chain ID:** 988 * **Currency Symbol:** gUSDT * **Block Explorer:** [https://stablescan.xyz](https://stablescan.xyz) Once added, switch your wallet’s active network to **Stable**. **3\. Bridging Assets to Stable** --------------------------------- To claim your airdrop, you’ll need a small amount of **gUSDT**, the Stable network’s native gas token. This requires bridging USDT to Stable via Stargate. ### **1\. Stargate** 🔗 Navigate to Stargate: [**https://stargate.finance/?dstChain=stable&dstToken=0x779ded0c9e1022225f8e0630b35a9b54be713736**](https://stargate.finance/?dstChain=stable&dstToken=0x779ded0c9e1022225f8e0630b35a9b54be713736) 1. Visit Stargate using the pre-filled link provided in the documentation 2. Select your source chain (such as Ethereum) 3. Choose **USDT** or **USDT0**, depending on availability 4. Bridge to the **Stable** network **Once the bridge completes, you’ll see USDT0 in your wallet. This is the canonical bridged USDT representation used for settlement.** **Note:** Depending on your wallet, USDT0 may not auto-appear. You can add the token manually using: * Contract: 0x779Ded0c9e1022225f8E0630b35a9b54bE713736 ([Stablescan](https://stablescan.xyz/token/0x779ded0c9e1022225f8e0630b35a9b54be713736)) * Symbol: USDT0 * Decimals: 6 While you’re at it, go ahead and add the STABLE token as well ### **2\. Jumper (via** [**LI.FI**](http://LI.FI)**)** You can also bridge to Stable using **Jumper**, which aggregates multiple bridge routes and may provide optimal execution depending on your source chain: 🔗 [**https://jumper.exchange/?fromChain=988&toChain=988&toToken=0x779Ded0c9e1022225f8E0630b35a9b54bE713736**](https://jumper.exchange/?fromChain=988&toChain=988&toToken=0x779Ded0c9e1022225f8E0630b35a9b54bE713736) Jumper offers a unified interface for bridging and swapping and is a familiar option for users across the [LI.FI](http://LI.FI) ecosystem. ### **3\. Relay** Relay provides a simple and direct experience for bridging into the Stable network: 🔗 [**https://relay.link/bridge/stable**](https://relay.link/bridge/stable) Relay is a lightweight interface and may be preferred by users looking for a more streamlined bridging flow. **4\. Confirm You Received gUSDT (Gas Token)** ---------------------------------------------- Stable uses a native variant of USDT, **gUSDT**, for gas fees. In most cases, you will automatically receive a small amount of gUSDT after bridging to cover initial transactions. If you did not receive gUSDT, or need additional gas, proceed to the next step. **5\. Convert USDT0 to gUSDT Using the Stable Hub** --------------------------------------------------- Visit the Stable Hub to convert between asset types: [https://hub.stable.xyz/convert](https://hub.stable.xyz/convert) Here you can: * Convert **USDT0 → gUSDT** to top up gas * Convert **gUSDT → USDT0** if needed Tip: Converting a small amount (0.1–1 USDT) is typically sufficient due to Stable’s low gas fees. For a full guide on how to obtain gUSDT, visit: [https://docs.stable.xyz/en/developers/how-to-obtain-gusdt](https://docs.stable.xyz/en/developers/how-to-obtain-gusdt) [ Stable Docs | Stable Architecture & Integration Guide ----------------------------------------------------- Learn how to obtain gUSDT (native gas token) on Stable through bridging USDT via LayerZero. https://docs.stable.xyz ![](https://storage.googleapis.com/papyrus_images/d2dfda9048c73b4d17ec3da15e986819fb10c5b3b848e3851dc20ff84725267f.png) ](https://docs.stable.xyz/en/developers/how-to-obtain-gusdt) **6\. Navigate to the Merkl Airdrop Claims Page** ------------------------------------------------- Once your wallet is connected to Stable and has gUSDT for gas, head to the Merkl claims portal: 🔗 [**https://app.merkl.xyz/users/**](https://app.merkl.xyz/users/) **7\. Connect Your Wallet** --------------------------- On the Merkl page: 1. Click **Connect Wallet** 2. Select your preferred wallet 3. Ensure your wallet is connected to the **Stable** network Merkl will automatically detect your address and display any claimable amounts. **8\. Claim Your Airdrop** -------------------------- If your address is eligible, you will see a **Claim** button. 1. Click **Claim** 2. Approve the transaction in your wallet 3. Pay the minimal gas fee in gUSDT Once the transaction finalizes, your STABLE tokens will appear in your wallet. **Troubleshooting** =================== ### **Claim button not appearing** * Confirm your wallet is connected to the **Stable** network * Ensure you are using the correct address * Check that you have enough **gUSDT** for gas ### **USDT0 or STABLE not visible in your wallet** * Add tokens manually using the verified contract addresses provided * Ensure your wallet is on the **Stable** network ### **Bridge transfer pending** * Stargate transfers may take several minutes depending on network conditions * Avoid sending multiple bridge transactions **Support** ----------- If you need help during the claim process, the following official support channels are available: * LayerZero Community Support: [**https://discord.gg/layerzerocommunity**](https://discord.gg/layerzerocommunity) * Merkl Support (for claim portal issues): [**https://discord.com/invite/PfAX8GaqZS**](https://discord.com/invite/PfAX8GaqZS) Please rely only on these verified channels.
