Binance, one of the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchanges, has announced the introduction of its first Binance HODLer Airdrop.
The inaugural project chosen for this new initiative is Banana Gun (BANANA), an ecosystem token associated with the Banana Gun trading bot. This article explores what Banana Gun is, its features, roadmap, tokenomics, fees, and how users can benefit from the Binance HODLer Airdrop.
What is Banana Gun?
Banana Gun is a comprehensive trading bot available on both Telegram and a web application. It aims to simplify the process of trading and sniping tokens, primarily on the Ethereum network, with plans to expand to other blockchains. The platform is designed to be user-friendly, catering to both novice and experienced traders.
Features of Banana Gun
Auto Sniping:
Banana Gun automates the process of sniping token launches. Users provide a contract address and investment details, and the bot handles the rest, including tax calculations, maxTx, methodID, and first safe block detection. This feature is especially useful for those without extensive knowledge of Solidity.
Limit Orders:
Traders can set up multiple take profit levels, stop loss, or trailing stop loss levels. The bot also allows for automated dip buying at desired market caps or prices with precision.
Copytrade:
Users can copy trade from profitable traders, enjoying the same safety features as direct trading with Banana Gun.
Fast & Secure Swaps:
All swaps conducted through Banana Gun are MEV-resistant, protecting against sandwich attacks or frontruns, and ensuring fast execution for better buy-in prices.
Anti Rug & Reorg Protection:
Banana Gun boasts a top-performing anti-rug system with an 85% success rate, ensuring safer trading. Reorg protection is also in place to handle block forks.
Scam & Honeypot Protection:
The bot includes built-in simulations to protect against scam tokens. If the Banana Simulator cannot simulate a successful sell, the transaction is halted.
Roadmap
Banana Gun follows a dynamic roadmap with a ‘now/next/later’ approach:
- Now: Web dApp Beta, Multichain support, Trade Overview, Solana Reborn.
- Next: Dextools Integration, Copytrade, TWAP, Web dApp Public release.
- Later: Multi-platform support, Wallet Tracker, Trade History, Banana Academy.
Tokenomics
The tokenomics of Banana Gun have been designed to support long-term protocol stability while minimizing investor risk. The total supply is 10,000,000 BANANA tokens, distributed as follows:
- Holders: 2,220,000 (22.2%)
- Liquidity: 170,000 (1.7%) – Locked for 2 years
- Airdrop: 120,000 (1.2%) – For eligible bot users
- Team: 1,000,000 (10%) – Various locking and vesting schedules
- Burn: 100,000 (1%) – Burnt to a dead address
- Treasury (locked): 6,380,000 (63.8%) – For emissions and operations
Banana Gun features a circulating supply of approximately 2.5 million tokens, with no buy/sell or transfer taxes. Token holders can claim rewards on the dApp, with revenue generated from bot activities.
Fees and Banana Burn
Banana Gun charges trading fees as follows:
- Manual Buys and Limit Orders on Ethereum: 0.5%
- Auto Sniper on Ethereum: 1%
- Trades on Other Chains: 1%
To reward loyal users, Banana Gun offers cashback in BANANA tokens based on fees paid, with an adjustable multiplier to manage emissions. Future plans include features that require holding or burning BANANA, reducing the circulating supply.
How to Earn with Binance HODLer Airdrop
The Binance HODLer Airdrops program rewards BNB holders with token airdrops based on historical snapshots of their BNB balances. By subscribing BNB to Simple Earn products, users automatically become eligible for HODLer Airdrops, as well as Launchpool and Megadrop rewards.
Introduction to Binance HODLer Airdrops
Binance HODLer Airdrops is a program specifically designed to reward long-term BNB holders. Unlike other earning methods that require ongoing actions, HODLer Airdrops reward users retroactively based on their historical BNB balances. This initiative simplifies the process of earning additional tokens, offering a passive income stream for BNB holders.
How to Participate in the HODLer Airdrop
To participate in the HODLer Airdrop for Banana Gun, users need to follow a few straightforward steps:
- Create a Binance Account:
If you don’t have a Binance account, you can create one via this link. Binance’s registration process is simple and user-friendly, allowing new users to get started quickly. - Subscribe to Simple Earn:
Navigate to the Earn section on Binance and search for BNB. Subscribe to Simple Earn products, choosing between Flexible and Locked options, based on your preference and investment strategy. - Snapshot Mechanism:
Binance will take snapshots of user balances and total pool balances multiple times each hour to calculate users’ hourly average balances in Simple Earn products. These snapshots are taken at random periods after the announcement to ensure fairness. For example, reward calculation for HODLer Airdrops on June 11, 2024, may use snapshots of user balances between June 1, 2024, and June 7, 2024, as a reference.
Benefits of Participating
Participating in Binance HODLer Airdrops offers several benefits:
- Passive Income:
Users can earn additional tokens without actively trading or performing specific tasks. The airdrops are based on historical BNB balances, providing a passive income stream. - Ease of Participation:
By simply subscribing BNB to Simple Earn products, users automatically become eligible for HODLer Airdrops. This process eliminates the need for continuous monitoring or active participation. - Flexibility:
Users can choose between Flexible and Locked Simple Earn products based on their investment preferences. Flexible products allow for easy withdrawal, while Locked products may offer higher rewards for longer commitment periods.
Distribution and Trading
Eligible users will receive HODLer Airdrops rewards in their Spot Wallets within 24 hours after the airdrop announcement. For the Banana Gun airdrop, the distribution will occur on July 20, 2024, one hour before trading starts.
Binance will then list BANANA and open trading with several pairs, including BANANA/BTC, BANANA/USDT, BANANA/BNB, BANANA/FDUSD, and BANANA/TRY. This diverse range of trading pairs ensures ample liquidity and trading opportunities for BANANA token holders.
The introduction of Banana Gun as the first project in Binance’s HODLer Airdrop program marks a significant development in the cryptocurrency space. Banana Gun offers a comprehensive suite of trading tools, designed to enhance the trading experience and provide robust security measures.
