River airdrop details

River’s airdrop is confirmed: $RIVER reaches users through River Pts, which you earn each quarterly Season and convert into Staked RIVER. Season 7 runs from 1 October to 31 December 2026 at an ideal rate of 0.01 RIVER per River Pt. What you actually get depends on your staking epoch (3 to 24 months) and on how many people convert at the same time.

Season 6 has settled. River opened its claim on 5 October 2026 for about 7,000 eligible users. S6 points stay claimable and convertible until 31 December 2026.

Key Parameters:

Airdrop Allocation: up to 30,000,000 RIVER (about 30% of supply) across all Seasons
Distribution Method: River Pts converted to Staked RIVER, Season by Season
TGE Date: 22 September 2025
Vesting Schedule: staked for 3 to 24 months; S7 unlock dates run from 1 April 2027 to 1 January 2029

How to participate in the River airdrop

Steps 1 and 2 are free and steps 3 to 5 need capital. Step 7 is only for wallets eligible in Season 6.

Step 1: Connect your wallet and X account to River4FUN

Open River4FUN, connect an EVM wallet and link your X account. No deposit needed. Our River4FUN link is a referral link. It costs you nothing and pays us if you sign up.

Step 2: Post about River on X and tag @River4FUN

Write posts, replies or quotes about River or its partner projects and tag @River4FUN. Points are scored on impressions, engagement quality and how regularly you post. River4FUN updates your balance daily.

Step 3: Mint satUSD against your collateral

In the River app, deposit BTC, ETH, BNB or a BTC staking token such as LBTC from Lombard or solvBTC from Solv Protocol, then mint satUSD on the chain you want. River’s docs advise a collateral ratio of 200 to 250% to stay clear of liquidation.

If you need collateral, buy it on Bybit and withdraw it to your wallet, or bring funds over from another chain with the bridge widget below.

Step 4: Put satUSD to work in liquidity pools or DeFi

Provide satUSD liquidity or deposit it into a DeFi protocol River has integrated. Each new S7 integration adds venues that earn River Pts.

Step 5: Stake RIVER

If you hold RIVER, stake it in the River app to earn River Pts. Staked RIVER also carries voting power that earns River Pts every week. Casting votes adds more on top.

Step 6: Check the S7 leaderboard after each Saturday snapshot

River snapshots activity every Saturday and posts the River Pts you earned to the S7 leaderboard after each one. Partner campaigns with their own multipliers run through the Season and are announced on River’s official channels.

Step 7: Claim your S6 River Pts if you are eligible

River’s claim announcement of 5 October 2026 points to app.riverai.inc/airdrop, where you connect your wallet and X account to claim. That page blocked our checker on 17 October 2026, so we have not verified the claim flow ourselves. Unclaimed S6 points are forfeited after 31 December 2026.

Step 8: Convert River Pts to Staked RIVER

On the same Airdrop page, choose a staking epoch between 3 and 24 months and confirm the conversion. It runs on BNB Chain, so keep a little BNB for gas. The S7 conversion window closes on 31 December 2026.

Risks and considerations

Converted RIVER stays staked until its unlock date, so you carry RIVER’s price risk for the whole epoch, up to 24 months. The 0.01 ideal rate is a reference point: River’s docs show the same 10,000 points converting at rates from 0.005 to 0.009 inside one Season, depending on how busy conversion is. Minting satUSD is a collateralized loan. If your collateral’s price drops, the position can be liquidated. River4FUN rewards depend on how River scores your posts, so the free route pays an amount you can’t predict.

Frequently asked questions

Is the River airdrop free?

River4FUN is the free route: you connect a wallet and an X account and earn River Pts for posts about River. Minting satUSD, providing liquidity and staking RIVER all need capital. Converting River Pts into Staked RIVER happens on BNB Chain, so even the free route needs a small amount of BNB for gas.

How much RIVER do 10,000 River Pts give in Season 7?

At the S7 ideal rate of 0.01, 10,000 River Pts give a base of 100 Staked RIVER on the 24-month staking epoch. On the 3-month epoch a 70% reshare applies and the same points give 30. The rate at the moment you convert can sit below the ideal rate when many people convert together.

When can I unstake RIVER converted in Season 7?

Staked RIVER unlocks on a Season boundary. For conversions made during S7, the unlock dates run from 1 April 2027 on the 3-month epoch to 1 January 2029 on the 24-month epoch. Until then it keeps earning River Pts and carries voting power, up to 24x on the longest epoch.

What if I wasn’t eligible for Season 6?

Then there is nothing to claim from S6. Season 7 points count from 1 October 2026, so activity until 31 December 2026 feeds the next settlement. For S6, River opened a checker on 1 October 2026 and opened the claim page on 5 October 2026 once settlement was done.

Is riverai.inc River’s official website?

Yes. River moved from river.inc to riverai.inc on 4 September 2026, announced the switch from its @RiverdotInc account on X and now says river.inc is dead. Other tokens and companies also use the River name, so check the domain before you connect a wallet. Our guide to airdrop types and safety shows how to spot a fake airdrop.

Will there be a River Season 8?

River hasn’t announced one. Its Conversion 3.0 model is built on recurring quarterly Seasons and carries unconverted supply forward into future Seasons. S7 is the second full quarter under that model. A Season 8 looks likely on that basis, but plan around dates only once River posts them.

Conclusion

If you qualified in Season 6, claim and convert before 31 December 2026. Otherwise start free on River4FUN. Mint satUSD only with collateral you’d hold anyway: converted RIVER stays staked up to 24 months.

What is River

River is a cross-chain stablecoin protocol built around satUSD, an over-collateralized stablecoin backed by BTC, ETH, BNB and liquid staking tokens. Its Omni-CDP lets you lock collateral on one chain and mint satUSD on another. River also runs River4FUN, which pays River Pts for posts about River on X. River started as Satoshi Protocol and moved its home from river.inc to riverai.inc on 4 September 2026.

The RIVER token went live on 22 September 2025 with a fixed supply of 100,000,000. It runs on Ethereum, BNB Chain and Base at the same address (0xdA7AD9dea9397cffdDAE2F8a052B82f1484252B3) and was listed on Hyperliquid spot in April 2026.

River raised a $2M seed round in May 2024, led by CMS Holdings and RockTree Capital. In January 2026 it closed a $12M strategic round with TRON DAO, Justin Sun, Maelstrom and The Spartan Group. Audit reports from Scalebit, Supremacy, Billh, Zenith and Zellic are published on River’s GitHub.
