Blockchain, the widely popular bitcoin wallet provider is preparing to airdrop $125 million worth of cryptocurrency to current wallet holders to celebrate their integration and full support of Stellar (XLM) for their system.

Blockchain Wallet has decided to reward their huge user base of over 30 million users by airdropping each of them $25 worth of XLM starting this week!

Blockchain Wallet CEO, Peter Smith, and his team carefully chose which cryptocurrency to giveaway and settled on Stellar for a number of reasons, most importantly that of scalability.

This momentous giveaway also comes with a number of very valuable partnerships to bolster the growth and further mass adoption of crypto as a whole. Blockchain Wallet will be working alongside Code.org as well as Stanford University’s Energy Innovation and Emerging Technologies programs and Network for Good who altogether desire to create a better future through the use of cryptocurrency.

With 30 million people soon to be using Stellar Lumens (XLM), the value of this token will surely see a change as adopters start utilizing this token and its network. According to CoinMarketCap the Stellar Lumen has already seen growth in value over the last week and may very well continue to grow.

There’s no doubt that this tremendous gesture will have an impact amongst the global crypto community. As Blockchains CEO, Peter Smith said yesterday at Lisbon’s Web Summit conference “We’re doing this because we want you to truly understand crypto, and the only way to truly understand it is to use it.”

It’s initiatives such as this one that provides real hope for the future of crypto and real experience for those who have yet to use cryptocurrency.
