Bybit Megadrop Launches Shards With 60M Token Prize Pool

Bybit, the world’s second-largest crypto exchange by trading volume, has announced the launch of Shards (SHARDS) on its Megadrop platform. SHARDS becomes the eighth project to feature on Megadrop, with a campaign running until September 3, 2025. Users who take part can earn a share of a 60,000,000 SHARDS prize pool ahead of the token’s official spot listing on Bybit on September 5.

WorldShards, the project introducing SHARDS, is being described as one of the most anticipated Web3 MMORPGs. The game mixes classic MMORPG elements with blockchain features, letting players actually own items as NFTs. It’s being built for PC, mobile, and consoles, with SHARDS powering the in-game economy. 

In contrast to many token launches, SHARDS has been set up as a fair launch, with no tokens allocated to the team or private investors, keeping the ecosystem community-driven from the start.

How the Campaign Works

Bybit Megadrop’s campaign gives users multiple routes to participate. The simplest is to stake USDT or MNT in Fixed Term Bybit Earn, which allows them to accumulate points. 

Scores can be boosted further by carrying out at least one spot trade each day during the campaign. Rewards are capped at 1% of the prize pool per user and will be distributed in three batches between September 5 and 9, 2025.

Megadrop has grown into Bybit’s main platform for discovering new tokens, giving users early access to projects in a simple and lower-risk format. Participants benefit from dual rewards — regular APR from their savings deposits plus new token allocations. 

The model is designed to give retail traders a chance to engage with promising projects before they list on the open market.

Bybit says SHARDS’ addition highlights its commitment to making token launches more transparent and accessible. With seven previous projects already launched, the exchange sees Megadrop as a bridge for millions of users to access Web3 projects in their earliest stages.
