The week of May 4–10 once again confirmed that the crypto market moves very fast: in just a few days, new TGEs happened, important signals about upcoming listings appeared, and several projects opened claims, waitlists, and testnets.
Main TGEs and Listings
Billions Network ($BILL) kicked off the week with the loudest launch: May 4 saw the TGE, and the token simultaneously listed on Binance, Bybit, OKX, and MEXC, while Coinbase added it to the roadmap. The claim portal was already live for eligible wallets on community.billions.network: token price at launch was $0.04, current price $0.12.
Separately, Billions has a community round: participants had until May 18 to choose one of three options. You can get a refund, claim allocation with a +25% bonus and 6-month lock, or full allocation with a +50% bonus but 12-month lock. If you choose nothing, the system auto-refunds — the decision is final with no take-backs.
Nexus ($NEX) approached TGE right after testnet completion. Balances were snapshot, testnet points paused before the next phase. May 7, Coinbase added $NEX to the listing roadmap, further fueling the sense that final launch is close.
Polymarket also reminded everyone: May 4, a team member confirmed on socials that $POLY remains in plans and roadmap work continues. May 7, the VP of Engineering noted the entire roadmap, including TGE, is in active development. No dates yet, but signals got noticeably stronger.
Dawn became one of those projects to watch closely in May too. In Discord, the team hints at major announcements, and the official Q2 roadmap still lists tokenomics reveal, airdrop mechanics, and TGE timing for mid-2026.
Claims and Distributions
MetaMask × Pudgy Penguins launched a commemorative SBT claim, open until June 3. All MetaMask users can get it, while Pudgy Penguins and Lil Pudgys owners have extra tiers right through the wallet.
Soneium preps Season 9 SBT mint, conditions tied to points again. Users with 80+ points get two mint stages. First higher range: Stage 1 (84–100 points) first 2 weeks, then Stage 2 (80–83). Meanwhile Season 10 runs parallel, so ecosystem activity doesn’t slow.
Product Updates
May 8, Arkham rolled out full prediction markets analytics. Now you can see PnL tables, open positions, win rates, and real-time trade flow for Polymarket, Kalshi, and others. Arkham uses its database of 3.5 billion address tags and 800K+ verified entities, plus wallet-specific alerts.
Testnets, Campaigns, and Closed Betas
Kash went public testnet May 4 and builds social prediction markets with fast resolution cycles (24–72 hours): rug calls, CT drama, narrative pivots, meme cycles. No wallet or deposit needed: login via X, markets created and published straight from Kash account. Project bets on anti-Sybil protection and weekly USDC payouts from a real pool, unlock at mainnet. Early entry here matters especially.
Forte Protocol opened Season 0 waitlist, but team warned some emails might get lost in Gmail filters. No email doesn’t always mean application issues. Parallel testing compliance engine and trading stack on USDC test tokens.
Predict Fun launched ambassador program with pretty high entry bar. Need either 20K points + 3K followers, or 50K points + application form. So the campaign suits those already actively farming the platform. If you’ve stacked Predict Points via liquidity and active trading — worth trying.
Dango wraps Epoch 6 on May 27, OAT boosts end too. To keep multiplier, better bind OAT early, or bonus just stops working.
Nesa opened beta waitlist. Testnet already live: Miner Program launched, project heading to TGE. One of those campaigns where early registration can play a key role.
Euphoria also went waitlist format. Project builds CLOB derivatives on MegaETH, emphasizes mobile-first scenario, adds gaming mechanics to the product itself.
The Syndicate team tracks key updates in airdrops, TGEs, listings, claims, and testnets daily and gathers everything important in one digest. So you get the current market picture without extra noise and don’t miss deadlines that could impact results.
