FLOP Network 90-day testnet launch and airdrop
⚠ The date is not confirmed yet and may change.
FLOP Network, a payment layer designed for AI agents, is planned to start a 90-day public testnet in October 2026, together with an airdrop of the FLOP token. The exact start day has not been confirmed, and the timing remains tentative.
What is happening
According to the source, FLOP Network will run a 90-day testnet alongside an airdrop representing 25% of the total token supply, intended to be distributed over the next 10 years. Until now the project has been operating on an internal development network, so the testnet marks a move to a live environment open to participants.
The network is described as a decentralized marketplace where tokens represent the computing resources that AI agents need. Participants can become eligible for tokens by mining, validating transactions, or using the network through an autonomous AI agent, meaning a software program that performs tasks without human intervention.
After the mainnet launch, tokens are expected to be obtainable either through active mining or by purchasing them directly from miners. The roadmap points to a mainnet genesis block deployment in the first quarter of 2027.
Why it matters
The project ties token distribution directly to network usage and the acquisition of computing resources, which offers one possible model for compensating participants in decentralized AI infrastructure. For potential participants, the testnet is the stage where eligibility for the airdrop is expected to be earned through mining, validation or agent-based activity.
For observers and traders, the testnet will be a first look at whether the network can support AI-agent payment workflows in practice. The source treats the Q1 2027 mainnet launch as the real benchmark for that capability. Since the date is tentative and the project is still early-stage, details such as airdrop mechanics and the exact start may change, and the official announcements should be checked before taking any action.
