Pakistanis love three things: cricket, biryani and muft ka maal.

Crypto has its own version. It’s called an airdrop, and some of them are paying out right now.

Welcome to Muft Ka Maal, CoinMobb’s weekly airdrop roundup. Every week we check which free-token claims are really open, the exact deadline, who qualifies, and which “free money” links are traps.

Quick reality check first: almost all of these are for people who already used the app months ago. You can’t sign up today and claim tomorrow. If you were in early, check your wallet. If not, read it anyway so you know how the game works, and how the chors work too.

Bro, what’s an airdrop?

A crypto project sends free tokens (or cash-like stablecoins) to people who used it early. Think of it like a shop giving its first customers a thank-you gift. You claim it on the project’s own website, from the same wallet you used before. That’s it. A real airdrop never needs your seed phrase. Ever.

✅ Open now: the claim list

1. StandX: the exchange that closed and is handing back the change 💵

What happened: StandX, a crypto trading platform with 237,000+ users, announced on 15 October it’s shutting down. It also cancelled its token launch. Instead, it’s sharing what’s left as DUSD, its dollar stablecoin.

  • Who gets it: People who deposited early, traded, made markets or referred friends on StandX.
  • Claim window: 2 November to 31 December 2026, 8:00 UTC (1pm PKT).
  • Catch: Unclaimed DUSD is gone forever. And DUSD withdrawals end 31 January 2027, so don’t sit on it.
  • Where: standx.com only, same wallet on BNB Chain or Solana.

Fun fact: the claim was meant to open on 1 November but got pushed by a day after Binance froze withdrawals following the hot-wallet attack we covered. Chaos in crypto is contagious.

2. Aster: the “patient people” payout ⏳

What it is: Aster is a trading app. Back in April, airdrop users picked: take 50% now, or wait and get the full amount later. This window is for the people who waited.

  • Pot: 200 million ASTER for this stage.
  • Claim window: 28 October to 28 November 2026, 12:00 UTC (5pm PKT).
  • Catch: If you took the 50% in spring, there’s nothing more for you. The choice was final.
  • Where: asterdex.com, airdrop allocation page.

3. Doppler Finance: only if you registered by July 📋

What it is: A yield app in the XRP world. Its “Genesis Airdrop” is 100 million XDP, which is 1% of all XDP that will ever exist, fully unlocked.

  • Who gets it: Only people who registered before 30 July 2026.
  • Claim window: Ends 28 November 2026, 12:00 UTC (5pm PKT).
  • Catch: You must claim with the exact Base wallet you registered. Another wallet won’t work.
  • Where: app.doppler.finance/airdrop.

4. Grass: got paid for your spare internet 🌱

What it is: Grass paid people (in points) for letting it use their unused home internet. Now those points turn into USDC, a dollar stablecoin. Not a new coin. Actual digital dollars.

  • Who gets it: Anyone who earned points between 14 October 2024 and 8 June 2026.
  • Claim window: Open since 22 July, deadline 22 January 2027, or earlier if everyone claims first.
  • Catch: Grass says unclaimed rewards stay with Grass. Some countries are restricted, so check the list on its site.
  • Where: app.grass.io/dashboard only. Grass says it will never DM you first.

A real airdrop asks for your wallet address. A scam asks for your seed phrase. That’s the whole test.

🚩 The chor of the week: the “free MetaMask token”

You might get an email or DM saying your wallet qualifies for 500 MASK tokens from MetaMask, the famous fox wallet. “Secure your allocation” button and everything. Very official. Very fake.

Here’s how it works, according to security researchers at PCrisk: the link asks for your email and wallet address, shows a happy “Congrats, receive 500 MASK!” page, then opens a fake MetaMask screen asking for your recovery phrase. Type it in, and your wallet is empty before your chai cools down.

MetaMask has no MASK token, and its first rewards season is over. Some airdrop websites still list a “MetaMask claim deadline”. Ignore them. Treat any MetaMask claim page as a scam.

👀 Rumour corner (no dates, no promises)

OpenSea, Base, Polymarket and Lighter keep getting called “likely airdrops”. None of them has announced a date or a snapshot. If someone is selling you a “guaranteed early access” spot, that someone is the airdrop. You’re the token.

Muft ka maal, the safe way: do this today

  1. Check only from the official site. Type the address yourself or use the link from the project’s own verified X account. Never from a DM, Google ad or Telegram.
  2. Never type your seed phrase anywhere to “claim”, “verify” or “unlock”. No real project asks.
  3. Use a separate “airdrop wallet” with nothing much in it, so one bad click can’t wipe your savings.
  4. Read what you’re signing. If the wallet pop-up says “approve unlimited spending”, stop.
  5. Mind the deadlines. Aster and Doppler close 28 November. StandX closes 31 December.
  6. Crypto rules in Pakistan are still being written, so keep screenshots of what you claimed and when, in case tax or bank questions come later.

See you next week with a fresh list. Same time, same chai.
