Starting as a Telegram mini-app—akin to Hamster Kombat—PAWS Labs is a SocialFi initiative that subsequently migrated to the Solana blockchain. It gives users:
-
Chatting and engaging in social activity
-
Completing in-app tasks
-
Referring friends
PAWS seeks to translate social interaction into actual token value. Still, many people are annoyed by the recent debate on the Bybit airdrop.
What Went Wrong with the Bybit Airdrop?
On April 15, 2025, Bybit distributed PAWS tokens to eligible users. But the airdrop didn’t go as planned:
-
Many users received incorrect token amounts
-
Others received nothing at all
-
Bybit reversed all token allocations shortly after
They admitted the error and promised a fair redistribution depending on revised eligibility standards. It is essential to note that regulatory criteria excluded users from the European Economic Area (EEA).
“$PAWS really airdropped dust to people, imagine the absolute waste of time.”

Confusion, Disappearing Balances, and Community Backlash
The sudden reversal caused confusion and concern:
-
Some users saw their PAWS balances disappear overnight
-
Others were unsure of their eligibility or allocation status
Bybit reassured the local population that no tokens had been lost and advised users to verify their airdrop status through official channels. They also cautioned against phishing schemes aimed at dissatisfied consumers.
PAWS Listed on MEXC Despite the Airdrop Drama
On April 16, PAWS was officially listed on MEXC, opening trading for:
-
PAWS/USDT
-
PAWS/USDC
MEXC launched advertising campaigns to enhance its listing and increase its profile. The listing provides consumers with an alternative approach to access PAWS and engage in the expanding ecosystem, despite the airdrop issues.
Tokenomics and Community Focus
PAWS has allocated 62.5% of its total supply to community rewards, targeting:
-
Early Telegram mini-app users
-
Holders of select Solana-based assets
Positioned as a fundamental incentive mechanism in the PAWS ecosystem, the token drives user participation and long-term involvement.
