Your kind of farm if: Existing Caldera users checking campaign history and partner announcements

Claims
- DeadlineVerified
The original ERA claim is closed. Historical pre-registration ended 17 July 2025 at 00:00 UTC. The official community notice gave the claim deadline as 31 July 2025 at midnight UTC; it did not disambiguate the start or end of that day. Both interpretations are past. The docs still say pre-claims are open; that wording is stale. ERA Drops, announced 4 February 2026, is a separate partner initiative, not a reopening of the original ERA claim.

Announcement covers ERA holders, stakers, ecosystem users and builders. Current partner rules, snapshot, KYC, geographic restrictions and deadline not verified.
Rewards
The original ERA distribution required pre-registration before launch. It is historical. ERA Drops is a separate initiative for partner tokens. The announcement names Espresso as its first featured project; that mention does not establish an open Espresso claim today. Each partner needs its own current rules and deadline.
Cost to play
Read the linked notices without connecting a wallet. No transaction is needed for this review. Current partner fees, minimum holdings, lock periods and reward values are not verified. Buying ERA exposes you to price loss; staking adds protocol and withdrawal risk. The historical pre-claim was gas-free and used a message signature, but that rule must not be applied to the staking page now at the same domain.
Edge
- Do not treat a partner announcement as proof that buying ERA today qualifies. Require dated snapshot, balance and claim rules first.
- The original onchain-user snapshot was 5 March 2025; other criteria continued through pre-claims. New transactions cannot change that historical snapshot.

Score notes
Legacy score 40 retained; no fresh payout estimate. Skip the closed ERA claim. Wait for verifiable partner rules before spending.
Questions
Can I still claim the original ERA airdrop?
Its July 2025 window has passed. No reopening was verified on 22 October 2026. The old claim domain now shows staking.
Should I buy ERA for ERA Drops?
Wait for current partner rules. The announcement does not establish that a purchase today qualifies or what you would receive.
