- Dymension (DYM) saw massive 58% gains in its first day after 700 million tokens (worth $390 million) were airdropped yesterday. But now questions swirl about a validator.
A day after Dymension, a Cosmos-based RollApp platform, airdropped 700 million tokens to users, DYM is trading for $5.60—around 58% higher than it was yesterday.
It now also has a staggering $5.6 billion fully diluted valuation, according to Coinstats data. Keep in mind that fully diluted valuation pretends that a coin’s full supply is circulating in the market, even if that isn’t the case.
The overwhelming majority of trading has occurred on Binance. Altogether, DYM has seen $511 million worth of trading volume in its first day, according to Coinstats.
Dymension launched its mainnet on Tuesday and distributed more than $390 million in DYM tokens through an airdrop targeting early users and communities across Solana, Ethereum, and other networks.

The airdrop involved 700 million DYM tokens, representing 7% of the total supply.
Dymension is a layer-1 blockchain enabling developers to deploy app-specific chains, or “RollApps,” using Cosmos technology and the IBC protocol for cross-chain connectivity. The “genesis rolldrop” reached over a million unique wallets but only about half claimed their share.
But there’s already concerns about how staking has concentrated 35 million DYM tokens—and with it, more than 44% of total voting power—with just one validator: Big Brain Staking.
The Dymension team hasn’t yet commented on the concentration of staked DYM tokens or said anything to reveal the identity of the validator.

APR was around 1,100% and fell to under 200% within the first 3 hours. That's JUICY returns, while users scrambled with no info on how to stake.

In the early, volatile days of the DYM token dropping, the Dymension metrics dashboard still promised 65.32% APR on staked tokens. But that’s liable to change. It’s already dropped by 98% since yesterday.
DYM’s airdrop ranks as the second-largest by value so far as of 2024.
It follows decentralized exchange (DEX) aggregator Jupiter on Solana, which airdropped 1 billion JUP last week—which, at the current price, puts the total value of that drop at $527 million.

Dymension’s tokenomics include a total supply of 1 billion DYM, with 7% allocated for airdrops, aiming to distribute the native token to support the ecosystem’s security, growth, and the sustainability of RollApps.
