Jupiter Airdrop Details

Jupiter’s airdrop is confirmed and ongoing in the form of ASR. Every quarter, 50 million JUP from the community allocation is shared among wallets that kept an average of at least 50 JUP staked during that period. Rewards follow a time-weighted average of your stake, so both size and duration count. Earlier Jupuary rounds are finished and no Jupuary claim is open now.

Latest Update: Q3 2026 ASR claims are live, covering the July to September staking period.

Claimed rewards go straight into your stake account instead of your wallet as liquid JUP, which raises both your voting power and your weight in the next round. The October to December period is already counting stakes for the next pool.

How to Participate in the Jupiter Airdrop

Step 1: Acquire JUP to Stake

ASR pays stakers, so you need JUP in a Solana wallet such as Phantom or Solflare. Buy it on Binance and withdraw to your Solana address, or swap SOL for JUP on Jupiter itself. The 50 JUP minimum stake is a floor, not a target: your share of the pool scales with size and duration. Keep some SOL spare for network fees. Alternatively, you can use the below widget to swap or bridge assets for SOL & JUP.

Step 2: Stake JUP Through the Governance Portal

Go to the Jupiter governance portal, connect your wallet, and stake. Unstaking has a 7-day cooldown and you can’t claim ASR while it runs. ASR pays on your time-weighted stake, so keep the position staked for the whole quarter.

Step 3: Vote When a DAO Proposal Opens

Voting is optional for ASR. Jupiter’s DAO page says “ASR is distributed based on time-weighted stake only. Your vote choice has no impact on rewards.” Your stake still gives you voting power when a new proposal opens in the governance portal.

Step 4: Claim Your Q3 2026 ASR Rewards by January 12, 2027

Go to the Q3 ASR rewards page and claim before the deadline: January 12, 2027, 14:00 UTC. Unclaimed JUP goes back to the treasury after that.

  • Connect the same wallet that held your stake from July to September
  • Check the JUP amount shown for your wallet
  • Click claim and approve the transaction
  • Confirm the new balance in your stake account on the governance portal

If an unstake is still in progress, the claim stays blocked. Wait for the 7-day cooldown to finish or cancel the unstake to claim right away.

Step 5: Use Jupiter’s Fee-Paying Products

Fee-paying activity has driven every Jupiter reward campaign so far, and past Jupuary rounds rewarded wallets that paid fees on Jupiter. Regular use keeps you positioned for any future campaign. Our airdrop farming guide covers how to spread activity across protocols. On the Jupiter website you can:

  • Route swaps through Ultra Mode, which recent trader campaigns have been keyed to
  • Trade perpetual futures
  • Take positions on the Kalshi-powered prediction markets, where each share settles at $1 if correct and $0 if not
  • Open the Referral tab, create a link, and set a fee rate up to 1% on tokens you choose

Jupiter Launches Gacha Card Packs in Beta

Jupiter has opened the beta of Gacha, a pack-opening product on Solana where every pull is a real graded Pokémon or One Piece card held as an authenticated slab and tradeable onchain. Season 1, with a prize pool of $100,000 in free packs, has ended.

Open a Gacha Pack

  1. Visit the Gacha packs page and connect a Solana wallet.
  2. Fund the wallet with USDC. You can purchase USDC directly from Binance.
  3. Choose a tier: Silver ($25), Gold ($50), Water ($100), Diamond ($250), Grail ($1,000) or God ($2,500) for Pokémon, or Straw Hat ($50) and Emperor ($250) for One Piece.
  4. Open the pack, then keep the card, list it on the Gacha marketplace, or use instant buyback to sell it for USDC within three days.

Pack spend builds battlepass progress toward free packs and sets your rank on the season leaderboard, where the top collectors split the prize pool once the season ends. Turbo mode auto-sells common pulls for USDC.

Tips for Maximizing Your JUP Allocation

Stake at the start of the quarter, not the end. ASR uses a time-weighted average, so a stake held for the whole quarter is worth roughly three times the same stake placed in its last month.

Voting is optional. Jupiter’s ASR docs say “Voting activity has no impact on ASR. You do not need to vote to be eligible.” Your share depends only on how much JUP you keep staked and for how long.

Set a reminder for the claim deadline. Claim windows run three months. The Q1 2026 pool expired on July 8 and those tokens went back to the treasury.

Don’t count on Jupuary 2026 yet. On February 22, 2026 the Jupiter DAO voted 75% to postpone it. Its 700M JUP went back to the Community Cold Multisig. The snapshot is kept, but those tokens can’t move without a new DAO vote.

Important Terms

Active Staking Rewards (ASR): Jupiter’s quarterly pool of 50M JUP for JUP stakers. Paid on a time-weighted average stake, with a 50 JUP minimum. Voting isn’t required.

Jupuary: The name for Jupiter’s annual January airdrop, which ran in 2024 and 2025. The DAO postponed the 2026 round on February 22, 2026. No new date is set.

Time-Weighted Average Stake: Your staked balance averaged across every day of the campaign period. Longer stakes count for more than larger, later ones.

Ultra Mode: Jupiter’s swap engine, with slippage protection and compensation for badly routed trades.

Conclusion

Jupiter now rewards its community through quarterly ASR payouts instead of large one-off drops. The Q3 2026 pool of 50 million JUP is claimable until January 12, 2027, with rewards landing directly in your stake.
