For airdrops, FOX tokens are widely distributed to more than one million current and past ShapeShift users, KeepKey hardware wallet Owners and users of other DeFi agreements.

Inspired by the wider DeFi community, we will now help create a new model of economic coordination in the 21st century. There are no corporate entities, no banks, and no borders. The tools are ready. Our customers, as well as the broader crypto community; are now the main stakeholders of the global decentralized, open source digital asset platform.”
