Backpack Exchange is reportedly raising a funding round at a valuation of $1 billion, according to Axios. The report cites unnamed sources and does not disclose the round size, investors, or timeline, leaving key details pending. If confirmed, such a valuation would position Backpack Exchange among well-funded exchanges and could accelerate product development and market expansion.
Backpack distributed points for the first week of the Epilogue phase and has started the second week. The project has earmarked 24% of tokens for a future airdrop, reinforcing incentives for continued participation during the current points cycle.
BackPack distributed points for the previous period in its ongoing points program. Community reports indicate meaningful point accrual even with relatively small trading volumes, including activity in tokens like HYPE and ETH. This suggests broader accessibility for participants seeking to accumulate points without high-volume strategies. Further distributions are expected as the program continues.
Backpack has launched Week 2 of its points program, and it is now live. The team highlights that earning points early can provide an advantage as totals accumulate over time. Participants who engage promptly may improve their standing for the current round and position themselves better for subsequent weeks within the campaign.
Backpack announced the farming phase is complete and said tokenomics details are coming soon. At TGE, 25% is allocated to the airdrop, with 24% of that allocation going to points participants. Further tokenomics specifics and timelines are expected in roughly a month, indicating significant rewards for point earners.
BackPack is running a campaign ahead of its TGE, offering structured participation before token generation. The effort positions activity as part of pre-launch engagement, potentially informing future eligibility or recognition. The campaign is ongoing in the run-up to TGE, with additional details provided by the team.
BackPack published details of its latest campaign, which is part of its pre-TGE engagement. The update clarifies structure and participation aspects of the campaign ahead of token generation. It complements earlier notes about an ongoing pre-TGE effort.
Backpack announced its upcoming TGE with 25% of tokens unlocked on Day 1. There will be no public or private sale, and 100% of the supply is allocated to growing Backpack. Tokenomics will be revealed progressively, with distribution and utility intended to differ from standard models.
Backpack has begun the Epilogue phase of its points program, with Week 1 of 4 now live. Points redistribution starts immediately, initiating a four-week window during which participant points are recalculated and reallocated across the program’s Epilogue period. This stage spans four consecutive weeks and determines final overall point standings.
Backpack executed a snapshot for holders of NFT MadLads. The snapshot secures eligibility for future rewards or distributions tied to ownership at the captured block. NFT holders should review the snapshot timing and criteria to understand potential benefits, upcoming claim timelines, and any additional requirements announced by the team.
Backpack Exchange announces the final week of Season 4, with a sybil check now live and a strict no multi-accounts rule. Participation requires KYC, depositing funds, and trading during this period. This marks the campaign’s closing phase, and accounts failing verification may be excluded from eligibility and rewards.
Backpack shared a CEO announcement in Discord as the final points farming season nears its end.
The team is conducting a sybil cleanup (criterion: multi-accounting); seized points will be redistributed to real users.
A vault testing phase will start next, expected to run for about ~4 weeks (range 2–6 weeks). The vault will provide liquidity across markets and act as LP of last resort.
During vault testing, about 10M points per week (total ~40M) seized from sybils will be redistributed.
No new points will be created after this week; this is the last week before TGE. The TGE will only occur once the vault is fully ready for new listings.
There are no MM or VC deals; at TGE, tokens will go only to users (and Mad Lads holders).
Backpack concluded another points-farming week in Season 4. They also distributed $FOGO tokens based on ranks.
Backpack announced a private beta for its prediction product. Per the CEO, it will function like a full crypto exchange with unified margin, risk management, hedging, and advanced orders.
