Swell Airdrop: Liquid Staking for Passive Income

**Swell** introduces a non-custodial liquid staking protocol aiming to provide the world's premier liquid staking experience. With a commitment to simplifying access to decentralized finance (DeFi) and securing Ethereum's future, Swell enables users to earn passive income by staking ETH. In return, participants receive a yield-bearing liquid staking token (LST), providing the flexibility to hold or engage in the broader DeFi ecosystem for additional yield.

Swell has garnered significant support, raising $3.8 million in funding from notable investors such as Framework Ventures and Mark Cuban. As part of their Voyage campaign, Swell is conducting an airdrop, distributing a total of **50,000,000 SWELL** tokens to users who stake ETH.
