PANews reported on May 20 that according to the official announcement, Binance Alpha has now launched MERLIN CHAIN (MERL). Eligible Binance users, that is, those with at least 193 Binance Alpha points, can apply for an airdrop of 1,000 MERL tokens on the Alpha event page starting at 17:00 (UTC+8) on May 20, 2025. Please note that applying for the MERL airdrop will consume 15 Binance Alpha points. Users need to complete the application within 24 hours after the application is opened (that is, before 17:00 on May 21, 2025, Eastern Time Zone 8), otherwise it will be deemed to have waived the airdrop.
