Today, ArkhamIntel's intelligence marketplace launched with an airdrop to over 47,000 users. In total, over $16.4m was distributed in an interesting pattern. In this thread, we'll analyze the intriguing details of the $ARKM airdrop distribution.
From the 46,998 wallets that took part in the airdrop, the average number of $ARKM tokens received per wallet was 522.5, with the median being much lower at around 197.4. This wide gap underlines the skewed distribution, with a few wallets taking a lion's share of the tokens.
breakdown of the distribution reveals that approximately 90.11% of all wallets received less than 1000 $ARKM tokens, while just around 0.33% of wallets received more than 10,000 tokens.
Digging deeper into the distribution of the actual tokens, we find a striking contrast: the overwhelming majority of wallets, those with less than 1000 tokens, received only 41.4% of the total tokens. This highlights the $ARKM concentration within a small subset of wallets.
Five wallets stand out in this scenario, each receiving over 100k $ARKM tokens, collectively worth almost $600k. They account for 1M tokens, making up 3.94% of all claimed tokens and 0.7% of the circulating supply.
Notably, most of them didn't waste any time - they quickly sold their tokens on Uniswap or transferred them to exchanges, which could significantly affect the token's liquidity and price.
To conclude, the $ARKM airdrop reveals the skewed nature of token distributions.
Despite many recipients, a small pool of wallets received the lion's share of tokens, most of which were quickly offloaded for large profits.
