Key news for March 16–20, 2026
Activities and Quests
Soneium — Season 8 has officially launched. Participants can continue completing quests and on-chain activities to earn Score points and badges.
Drops and TGE Delays
OpenSea has postponed the launch of its $SEA token. The planned March 30 event will not take place. The OpenSea Foundation cited challenging market conditions and a desire to deliver a launch worthy of the community. The current rewards wave will be the last.
The allocation checker for $CHIP from the USD.AI ICO and Airdrop is open until March 22. If you participated in the sale and want a refund, you can request it via CoinList, but you will not receive the $CHIP token.
The second airdrop claim is now available on Superform. The project, backed by Polychain, VanEck, and Circle, has seen declining metrics: TVL dropped from $170M to $36M, and the token price is around $0.0555. The drop is live — we recommend claiming it.
Mainnets and Registrations
The Nexus testnet phase has proven the network’s readiness — 2.6 million participants, 96 ecosystem partners, and zkVM 3 infrastructure. The mainnet is rolling out.
Tempo, supported by Stripe and Paradigm, has moved its stablecoin-based payment system from testnet to mainnet. The company also introduced MPP — a machine payments protocol developed in collaboration with Stripe.
The decentralized network Aster has launched on mainnet. Staking for $ASTER holders is already available.
Perle has opened eligibility checks and registration for an upcoming airdrop in $PR tokens.
Pre-TGE and Controversies
The Katana project’s Pre-TGE has concluded, with the token entering the market at around $0.017 and an FDV of approximately $170M. Performance remains muted amid inflated community expectations.
The Arizona Attorney General has filed criminal charges against Kalshi for operating an illegal gambling business (20 counts). The Trump administration has publicly supported the prediction markets industry, intensifying tensions between state and federal authorities.
This week highlighted two sides of the market: on one hand — active launches and mainnets (Nexus, Tempo, Aster), on the other — fatigue from repeated TGE delays (OpenSea) and increasing regulatory pressure (Kalshi). The drops are still there — Superform and USD.AI are waiting.
