Monad Airdrop Claim Guide: How to Buy MON, Sell Airdrop Tokens, and Bridge Safely

The post Monad Airdrop Claim Guide: How to Buy MON, Sell Airdrop Tokens, and Bridge Safely appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News

Monad (MON) airdrop has officially launched, but excitement quickly turned to frustration as users reported claim failures, bridge errors, and difficulty trading their tokens. While some early recipients successfully sold their allocations, many report that the official Monad tools are not functioning properly, forcing them to rely on third-party platforms.

One major wallet, 0x676a, which received 5.61 million MON ($184K), panic-sold 5.5 million MON for $131K USDC at $0.0239 below the public sale price of $0.025, highlighting the heavy selling pressure around the launch.

What Happened During the Monad Airdrop?

According to Monad, eligible users did not need to claim anything manually. Tokens were pre-assigned to wallets and automatically appeared on the mainnet once it went live. However, many users say their tokens either did not show up or could not be moved due to network errors. 

This led to growing frustration and confusion, especially on Discord, where sentiment turned negative within hours of the launch.

Why Are Users Facing Claim and Bridging Problems?

The biggest issue reported is that the official Monad bridge appears unstable. Many users said their transactions failed or got stuck, preventing them from moving MON to other blockchains where liquidity is better.

Because of this, the community quickly shifted to Jumper Exchange, which became the most reliable option for bridging. Several users confirmed that Jumper successfully bridged their MON to Solana or Ethereum within minutes.

One user said they bridged 88,000 MON, sold it for $2,100, and saw the funds appear in their Solana wallet without issues.

How Can Users Claim Monad Airdrop Tokens?

Monad says the process is automatic:

1. Open your chosen wallet on the Monad mainnet.
2. Your MON tokens should appear without any extra steps.

If tokens are missing, users are trying simple fixes like refreshing RPC or switching wallet interfaces, but results vary widely.

Why Are So Many Users Selling Their Airdrop Tokens Immediately?

Many users are selling quickly for several reasons:

• Confusing claim experience
• Bridge problems creating fear of getting stuck
• Weak community communication
• Recent market crash causing people to limit risk
• Concerns about long-term price support

Airdrop cycles for other new chains also saw heavy early dumping, and many believe Monad is following a similar pattern.

What Is Driving MONAD Token Price Volatility?

MONAD’s price has been unstable mainly because many users are selling their tokens as soon as they receive them. Technical issues like bridge failures and missing tokens added more pressure, making people nervous about holding. 

The broader market is also weak due to recent Bitcoin and Ethereum drops, so users are choosing to exit quickly. This combination of heavy supply and low confidence is keeping MON’s price under stress.

What Is the Outlook for Monad After the Airdrop Issues?

Monad’s technology is still respected, but the launch problems have shaken community trust. The project needs to fix the bridge issues, provide clearer updates, and restore user confidence. If the team responds quickly, MONAD’s price may stabilize. But for now, the token is likely to face continued selling pressure until the situation improves and the ecosystem becomes more active.
