MEXC has opened an Airdrop+ campaign for QUID, the newly launched token from cross-chain routing protocol Squid Router, running from August 4 to August 10, 2026. Participants can share a combined pool of $30,000 in QUID tokens and 10,000 USDT by depositing and holding QUID on the exchange during the event window.
The listing lands just as QUID enters the market. The token officially launched on August 4 at 1 PM UTC, with Binance Alpha serving as the first platform to feature it before MEXC and other exchanges followed with their own listings and campaigns.
What Squid Router brings to the token
Squid Router is a cross-chain routing protocol that lets users swap and bridge assets across more than 100 blockchains from a single interface, and it has processed more than $6 billion in historical transaction volume since launching, with integrations spanning wallets and applications including MetaMask, Ledger and MiniPay. QUID is designed to sit at the center of that infrastructure going forward, tied to the protocol's governance and incentive structure as Squid shifts from a pure infrastructure play into a tokenized network.
Demand for the token was evident well before launch. A public sale held on Legion and Kraken from June 30 to July 3 collected $26.5 million in commitments and was oversubscribed by nearly 12 times, drawing 3,535 participants from 78 countries. Staking through Squid's dedicated router staking portal, backed by an official contract published on Basescan, became available immediately at the token generation event.
Why the MEXC campaign matters
For MEXC, the Airdrop+ campaign is a way to capture early trading activity and deposits around one of the more heavily oversubscribed token launches of the summer, giving users on the exchange a direct incentive to engage with QUID during its first week on the market rather than simply watching the listing from the sidelines.
