BitcoinOS (BOS) Binance Alpha Airdrop Launch Details

• Project Name: BitcoinOS
• Token Ticker: $BOS
• Airdrop Duration: October 29
• Airdrops Rewards: TBA (To Be Announced)
• Platform: Binance Alpha
• Eligibility Requirements: Details coming soon 

How To Participate in the $BOS Airdrop Campaign

BitcoinOS will open for trading on Binance Alpha on October 29, 10:00 (UTC). When trading starts, the airdrop will open for eligible traders to begin applying for $BOS tokens. 

The eligibility requirement will also be revealed in future announcements. But, based on recent events like the SnapX airdrop, Common Airdrop, and Semantic Layer airdrop, you'll need to hold about 200-250 Binance Alpha points. You can increase your APs by increasing trading Alpha tokens.

If you meet this requirement, you can apply for the $BOS airdrop. After application, a claim cost of 15 Alpha Points will be deducted from your account. The airdrop is on a first-come, first-served basis, so you need to be among the first applicants to get the rewards. 

The airdrop will be completed in 24 hours, and the number of $BOS tokens allocated to each user will be deposited into their Alpha accounts. If BitcoinOS meets a trading volume requirement on Alpha, $BOS will be launched on Binance Spot Futures shortly after.

About BitcoinOS

BitcoinOS is a Web3 platform that plans to bring programmable applications to the Bitcoin network without altering the protocols of Bitcoin. As a kind of operating system, BitcoinOS is intended to evolve Bitcoin from a store of value and make it a programmable, scalable, and interoperable foundation of an internet economy.

Historically, Bitcoin is safe but not highly programmable and scalable. BitcoinOS builds on the strong security of Bitcoin as its foundation but adds cutting-edge features that allow developers and institutions to create decentralized applications (dApps) and financial products and cross-chain solutions that are safely anchored on Bitcoin.

BitcoinOS will hit its target with the help of Layer 2 rollups and zero-knowledge proof technology (BitSNARK and Grail) that will allow Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM)-compatible smart contracts on Bitcoin. This will enable developers to develop DeFi protocols, NFTs, dApps, and others to operate nearly as easily on Bitcoin as they do on Ethereum, with increased security and trust. 

 It is effective to unlock the potential of Bitcoin, allowing developers and end-users to work on a single platform. The BitcoinOS vision does not place Bitcoin as a value that simply exists but as the foundation of a new programmable internet economy in which decentralized finance, NFTs, identity services, and others can safely thrive.

BitcoinOS recently raised $10 million in a funding round led by Greenfield Capital, with participation from FalconX, DNA Fund, and Bitcoin Frontier Fund. The capital infusion and expansion through its Binance Alpha listing will help accelerate the development and adoption of BOS's institutional-grade tools.
