SOON Foundation

Binance Alpha's second wave of SOON (SOON) airdrop rewards are here! Users with at least 241 Binance Alpha Points can claim an airdrop of 55 SOON tokens on a first-come, first-served basis. If the rewards are not fully distributed, the score threshold will automatically decrease by 5 points every 5 minutes. Please note that claiming the airdrop will consume 15 Binance Alpha Points. Users must confirm their claim on the Alpha Events page within 24 hours; otherwise, it will be deemed that users have given up claiming the airdrop.

* $SOON Claiming Reopen Schedule for SOONer & SOONest Holders * With the successful completion of the COMMing SOON system upgrade, we are pleased to announce that $SOON claiming for all SOONer and SOONest NFT holders will reopen on November 23rd at 11:00 PM EST. All eligible holders who have successfully completed KYC verification will be able to claim their allocated tokens — including any referral rewards earned through the program. We have heard the feedback from community members who were unable to complete their claiming before the previous deadline. In response, and in the spirit of fairness and inclusiveness, the Foundation has decided to provide a renewed opportunity for eligible holders to claim their allocations. Additionally, the token allocation for SOON Squad NFT holders will begin unlocking on December 23rd as scheduled. Thank you for your continued support and engagement with the SOON ecosystem. We look forward to welcoming you back into the claiming portal.

Over the past weeks, many community members have reached out to us regarding the $SOON token claim deadline for SOONest and SOONer NFT holders, which closed on September 30th. We understand that, despite the announcement being made one month in advance and several reminders shared across our channels, some holders were unable to complete their claims in time. We sincerely appreciate everyone who reached out to us and shared their situations — your feedback means a lot to us. Our team is currently upgrading the entire COMMing SOON system into SOONPAD — a major infrastructure upgrade that will make the COMMing SOON-style NFT mint framework available to third-party teams and projects. Once this upgrade is complete, we will reopen the claiming window for those who missed the original deadline. The reopening will take place sometime before November 23rd, which is when SOON Squad NFT holders will begin their token claims. We want to thank everyone for their patience and continued support. While we set deadlines to keep things organized, our community has always been at the heart of what we do. This reopening reflects our commitment to ensuring every holder has the opportunity to take part in SOON’s growth and evolution. Further details and the exact reopening date will be announced through our official channels.

Over the past week, a community member shared valuable feedback on SIP-003 through our forum. After careful internal review and discussion, we’ve decided to adopt this suggestion as part of our ongoing commitment to transparent, community-driven governance. We will be adjusting the staking model to remove the long-term staking boost previously applied to the foundation’s staked portion. The long-term boost feature itself will remain for individual community stakers. The rewards previously allocated to the foundation’s boosted stake will instead be redistributed to individual stakers, strengthening incentives for all long-term participants while maintaining the same base reward rates. This update reflects the spirit of SIP-003 — a fairer and more community-oriented staking system shaped by your feedback. Your voice truly matters. Thank you for helping us build a stronger, more decentralized future — together.

SIP-003 has passed with 53,500 for votes. The staking & locking of the $SOON tokens will be initiated in the coming days.
