Action
Participation guide
- Visit the Aftermath Finance website and connect your Sui-compatible wallet.
- Explore the DEX aggregator to swap Sui ecosystem tokens or provide liquidity to pools for passive yield.
- Participate in yield farming or staking SUI tokens to earn rewards.
- Use the lending and derivatives platforms for margin trading, options, and perpetual contracts.
- Engage with cross-chain features to bridge assets from Ethereum, Solana, or other supported chains.
- Stay updated on Aftermath's social channels for announcements regarding token launches or airdrop campaigns.
- For airdrop farming, actively use the platform's core features (swaps, liquidity provision, staking, lending) and interact with new products as they launch.
- Monitor your activity and ensure you meet any snapshot or eligibility criteria announced by the team.
Research Refresh: Participation Notes (2026-06-16)
- Check the official website and X account before taking any action.
- Make small, repeated swaps or bridges only if you understand the network and fee risks.
- For staking, deposits, lending, or liquidity actions, size positions conservatively and track wallet risk.
- Complete official quests or points campaigns and keep activity consistent rather than one-off.
- Avoid unofficial claim links, copied forms, and DMs; use only official domains/social links.
Editorial guidance
How to improve eligibility
Research Refresh: Maximization Notes (2026-06-16)
- Prioritize official, repeatable activities that are visible on-chain or in the project dashboard.
- Keep one consistent wallet history for this ecosystem unless the project explicitly supports account linking.
- Document completed quests, points, campaign IDs, and wallet addresses for later checker/claim windows.
- Do not chase high-cost volume unless the project has a clear, credible incentive program.

Scoring Recalibration (2026-06-16)
- Score recalibrated with stricter evidence gates: direct airdrop/points/claim evidence, actionable path, current official signals, expected upside, effort/cost, and stale-evidence penalties.
- Generic project strength, funding, or broad activity no longer qualifies for S/A without direct opportunity evidence.
Editorial judgment
Scoring notes
Sui on-chain DEX; TVL only $3.33M; perp hack Apr 2026 ($1.14M exploit) is a major red flag. Token not found on CoinGecko. Pseudonymous team, modest traction. Breakdown: 2+3+2+1+4+1+0-5 = 8, floored after rug/hack penalty. Archive: hacked project with declining TVL.
