**Top Crypto Airdrops of 2025: Who Gave Away the Most Free Tokens**

Crypto airdrops continued to be a popular way for blockchain projects to reward early users and grow their communities. Although 2025 didn’t match the explosive gains of 2024, several airdrops still delivered millions in value to users. Here’s a breakdown of the biggest token giveaways of the year.

**1. Story Protocol (IP Token)**
Story Protocol launched its own blockchain and introduced the IP token in February. The project aims to change how intellectual property works by removing middlemen. As part of its launch, it gave away about 100 million IP tokens—roughly 10% of its total supply—to early users and supporters.

These tokens peaked in value at over $1.4 billion in September when the price hit $14.78. However, by mid-December, the token had dropped about 89% and was trading at just $1.71.
