Binance's AI-Driven Airdrop: Boosting BNB Holders with 0G's Modular Ecosystem

Binance has announced the 42nd project in its HODLer Airdrop initiative, allocating 3,000,000 tokens of 0G, a decentralized AI Layer-1 (L1) blockchain designed to orchestrate hardware resources and software assets for large-scale AI workloads. Eligible users are BNB holders who subscribed their tokens to Binance’s Simple Earn (Flexible/Locked) or On-Chain Yields programs between September 15 and September 17, 2025 (UTC). Rewards will be distributed retroactively within 24 hours of the announcement and credited to Spot Accounts at least one hour before the token’s listing on September 22, 2025. The 0G token, with a total supply of 1,000,000,000, will initially circulate 21.32% of its supply at listing, accompanied by a 3.5% annual inflation rate.

The 0G project positions itself as a modular AI operating system (DeAIOS) capable of infinite scalability, fully on-chain AI execution, and seamless composability for decentralized applications (dApps). Its infrastructure includes a compute network for trustless AI inference, decentralized storage optimized for structured/unstructured data, and a service marketplace for AI models and agents. The project claims over 650 million testnet transactions, 22 million active accounts, and 8,000 testnet validators as of September 21, 2025. Partners include industry leaders like Alibaba Cloud, Optimism, and Polygon.

Token allocation for 0G is structured as follows: 28% to ecosystem growth, 15% to AI alignment nodes, 13% to community rewards, and 22% each to the team/contributors and backers. An additional 18.5 million tokens will be reserved for future marketing campaigns. Binance emphasized that the airdrop aligns with its strategy to reward BNB holders through recurring utility-driven incentives, including Launchpool and MegaDrop programs.

Eligibility for the airdrop excludes users in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, Japan, and China Hong Kong, as well as sanctioned jurisdictions. Participants must complete KYC verification. The token will trade on Binance against USDT, USDC, FDUSD, BNB, and TRY pairs, with deposits opening on September 21 at 11:00 UTC. Binance Alpha will feature 0G prior to its main listing, after which it will be removed.

The listing of 0G marks a strategic move to integrate AI infrastructure with blockchain, leveraging Binance’s user base for immediate adoption. The project’s modular design aims to address scalability and composability challenges in decentralized AI applications. Binance’s partnership with 0G underscores its focus on fostering innovation in AI-driven blockchain ecosystems.
