GRVT's first airdrop tranche expires ~Aug 29; Propr TGE set for Aug 24. Grass and Midnight extend to 2027. Claim details for Plume and dappOS remain unpublished.
The most pressing deadline this week appears in no announcement text; it simply runs out quietly. At GRVT every unlocked tranche expires 30 days after it is unlocked, with no replacement. The first tranche unlocked at the token launch on July 30, 2026. By that arithmetic its window closes around August 29, 2026, still inside this week. The second date is a start: Propr holds its token generation event on August 24, 2026.
This overview lists airdrops that either have a claim window open this week or a date fixed within the next 14 days. Every figure comes from the source linked with it. Where a project has published no end date, that is stated explicitly. There are no estimated deadlines here.
The derivatives exchange GRVT held its token generation event on July 30, 2026. The allocation check and the claim opened the same day. A total of 280 million GRVT is being distributed, 100 million from season 1 and 180 million from season 2.
The point that sets this airdrop apart from almost every other sits in the project's help centre, and today it is the most important line in this whole article. The distribution runs in tranches over twelve months, and each unlocked tranche has a 30-day claim window. Once it passes, the tranche is gone for good. The project puts it without a back door: exceptions are not possible, the help centre said.
Anyone who registered before July 17, 2026 and set a destination chain receives each tranche automatically and needs to do nothing. Everyone else has to claim manually through the Reward Portal at every unlock, and that is exactly where forfeited allocations come from. Registration itself is closed. The project gives July 27, 2026, 00:00 UTC as the cutoff. Anyone who missed it is not part of the distribution, according to the project.
One qualification belongs with this, and it matters. GRVT has not published August 29, 2026 as a deadline itself. That date follows from the published 30-day rule and the TGE date. So do not rely on the arithmetic. Look up the actual expiry of your tranche in the Reward Portal. And put the following unlocks in the calendar straight away: after the first tranche, more follow over twelve months, each with its own 30-day clock.
The only hard start date inside the 14-day window comes from Propr, an onchain prop trading platform on Hyperliquid. The project's tokenomics proposal dates the token generation event to August 24, 2026. The proposal phrases it as an intention, not as an irrevocably fixed date.
The plan is a fixed supply of one billion PROPR, of which 20 percent goes to the genesis airdrop, fully unlocked at the TGE. Points for it were collected by buying trading challenges, where one dollar spent equalled ten points, regardless of whether the challenge was passed. Propr is built by the XBorg team. A further share is earmarked for stakers of the XBG token.
Two qualifications hold unchanged from last week. First, Propr has still not published the concrete claim mechanics or any claim deadline. The TGE date and the split are known, nothing beyond that. Anyone waiting for a deadline has to watch the project channels directly. Second, all investor rounds, the airdrop and the liquidity unlock simultaneously at launch. That means considerable selling pressure on the first trading day.
Which leads to the question that actually comes up on TGE day. Freshly listed low-cap tokens are among the most volatile assets in the market. Prices can drop by double digits within minutes, and a total loss is possible.
The deadline with the largest buffer, and the most solid figure in the whole field, belongs to the Solana project Grass. It has been paying out its stage 2 rewards since July 22, 2026, 1:00 PM EST. The claim runs through the dashboard at app.grass.io. The deadline ends on January 22, 2027. Unclaimed amounts are retained by Grass according to its own documentation.
Two details are easy to miss. Payment is not made in GRASS tokens but in USDC. And the eligibility period is tightly drawn: it covers epoch 1 to epoch 19 of stage 2, meaning the period from October 14, 2024 to June 8, 2026. Anyone who collected network points in that window is eligible in principle, the project's documentation said.
At the Cardano-adjacent privacy project Midnight, the thawing phase of the NIGHT token has been running since December 10, 2025 and ends on December 4, 2026, followed by a grace period of 90 days. Payout comes in four equal tranches of 25 percent each at intervals of 90 days. The first was distributed at random between December 10, 2025 and early March 2026.
The claim itself is closed to latecomers. The Glacier Drop window ran from August 5 to October 20, 2025. The Scavenger Mine ran from October 30 to November 19, 2025. The announced lost-and-found phase for around 252 million unclaimed NIGHT still has no date, according to the project's guide.
Two claims remain open, and both are missing exactly the figure you would set your calendar by. That is no reason to relax but a reason to bring the claim forward. A window whose end nobody knows cannot be planned for in time either.
The claim for the DGAI token from DGrid has been closed since August 22, 2026, 8:00 UTC. Claiming is no longer possible. Anyone who had not chosen a staking plan by then had their allocation moved automatically into the 360-day plan, according to the project. So the allocation is not lost outright, but it is locked for a year. DGrid still has not named a listing date.
Four candidates with plenty of attention did not make the list. Plume and dappOS both lack a published claim deadline, which excludes them from a list that requires a concrete date. The reasons differ in each case, and each one is worth as much as an entry.
Plus the standing rule of this format. Projects listed as live on aggregator sites that name neither a snapshot nor a claim window at the project source do not get in. Airdrop confirmed, date open is not a deadline.
Airdrops are the preferred hunting ground for wallet drainers, and the patterns repeat. An airdrop is not by definition a tax-free gift. Whether an allocation counts as taxable income depends above all on whether you provided something in return. With this week's campaigns that is not a marginal question. Anyone who collected points through purchased trading challenges or through trading volume stands differently from someone who received an allocation without doing anything.
So secure the timestamp, quantity, market value, price source, transaction hash and the terms of participation right at the moment of claiming. The terms in particular tend to disappear first once a campaign page is taken down.
This week has exactly one deadline that genuinely presses. At GRVT the first tranche expires 30 days after July 30, and a missed window is irreversible. Anyone who registered after July 17 has to claim manually and should look up the actual date in the Reward Portal rather than trusting the arithmetic. Propr launches on August 24 but still leaves the claim details open. Grass and Midnight leave real room with January 22, 2027 and December 4, 2026. Plume and dappOS lack a published end date, which argues for claiming promptly rather than against it.
And the sobering part: most allocations sit in the two- to three-figure range, the fee for claiming eats a noticeable share of that, and a substantial proportion of all allocated tokens is never claimed at all. The effort pays off mainly where you are already eligible.
