Introduction
Nansen, a leading blockchain analytics platform, has launched a points program that could potentially lead to an airdrop of their native token, NXP (soon to be converted to $NSN). This guide will walk you through the steps to participate in this program and maximize your chances of receiving airdrop rewards. We will also provide an overview of Nansen, its team, funding, and revenue model.
Step-by-Step Guide to Earning Nansen Loyalty Points (NXP)
While Nansen has not officially confirmed a token airdrop, their points program is a strong indicator of future rewards.

The Season 1 of the points campaign launched on June 17, 2025, and will run for three months until September 30, 2025.
