Current decision

Closed record

Infrared Finance is the live Berachain liquid-staking and yield-automation protocol whose IR token launched in 2025 and is now trading on Binance, Bitmart, HTX, MEXC, and others; the original IR airdrop claim window closed on 2026-01-01 UTC, so no new claim is currently available. The Airdrops.com “Confirmed” directory label refers to that historical event, not a fresh allocation.

Who uses or pays
Who uses and pays for the product still needs verification.
What is live
The current live product state is not yet recorded separately from campaign research.
Where value flows
Infrared reported a $14M Series A led by Framework Ventures in early 2025, bringing disclosed total funding to roughly $18.75M, with participation from Animoca Brands, NGC Ventures, CitizenX, Selini Capital, Halo Capital, Symbolic Capital, and No Limit Holdings, plus an earlier undisclosed strategic tranche from Binance Labs. No public third-party smart-contract audit report by a named firm (e.g., Trail of Bits, OpenZeppelin, Spearbit, Halborn) was verified at refresh time; Berachain’s broader Immunefi bug-bounty program covers the ecosystem.
