DeFi11 (D11) Airdrop Scam Alert: No CoinMarketCap Community Airdrop Exists

There’s no such thing as a DeFi11 airdrop on CoinMarketCap. Not now, not ever. If you’ve seen posts, tweets, or Telegram groups pushing this, you’re being targeted by a scam.

DeFi11 (D11) was a project that promised a decentralized fantasy sports and prediction platform built on blockchain. It claimed to fix problems like rigged outcomes, hidden fees, and lack of anonymity in traditional fantasy sports apps. But here’s the truth: the token never launched. Not really. As of October 2025, CoinMarketCap shows its circulating supply as 0 D11. That means no tokens are out in the wild. No one holds them. No one can claim them.

And yet, people are still talking about a "CoinMarketCap Community Airdrop" for D11. That’s impossible. CoinMarketCap doesn’t run airdrops. It’s a price tracker. It doesn’t issue tokens. It doesn’t manage wallets. It doesn’t send free crypto. If a website says "CoinMarketCap is giving away D11," it’s lying. CoinMarketCap’s own airdrop page shows zero active or upcoming airdrops. It’s not loading data because it’s empty - it’s empty because there are none.

DeFi11 was acquired by VulcanForged in 2024. That’s not a merger. It’s not a relaunch. It’s a shutdown. VulcanForged absorbed the team, the IP, maybe even the code - but they didn’t revive D11. They buried it. The token was never distributed. No wallets were snapshotted. No eligibility rules were published. No smart contract was deployed for distribution. The entire project went quiet after the acquisition. No GitHub updates. No Discord activity. No developer posts. Just silence.

Scammers know this. They’re counting on you not checking the facts. They’ll send you a link to a fake airdrop site. It’ll ask you to connect your wallet. Then it’ll ask for your private key. Or it’ll say you need to pay a small gas fee to "unlock" your D11 tokens. That’s how it works. They want your crypto. Not your time. Not your trust. Your money.

Legitimate airdrops don’t work like this. Take Uniswap’s 2020 airdrop. They announced it publicly. They published the snapshot date. They showed exactly how many UNI tokens each eligible wallet got. Over 250,000 people received tokens - worth thousands of dollars at peak. No one had to pay anything. No one had to send crypto to a wallet. No one had to click a sketchy link. It was clean. Transparent. Verified.

D11 has none of that. No announcement. No proof. No history. Just a 0 supply and a ghost project. If you’re being told otherwise, you’re being played.

Here’s how to protect yourself:

1. Check CoinMarketCap’s official airdrop page. It’s updated daily. If D11 isn’t listed, it’s not happening.
2. Look at the token’s supply. If circulating supply is 0, there’s nothing to airdrop. Period.
3. Never connect your wallet to a site just because someone says you’ll get free tokens.
4. Never send any cryptocurrency to claim a reward. Legit airdrops never ask for payment.
5. Search for official project channels. If DeFi11’s Twitter, Telegram, or website is dead or has no recent posts, walk away.

Some people will say, "But I saw it on Reddit!" or "My friend got it!" That’s how scams spread. One person falls for it. Then they brag. Then others try to copy. No one actually got anything. They just lost their wallet access or sent ETH to a thief.

There’s no mystery here. No hidden opportunity. No last-minute giveaway. DeFi11 is dead. The airdrop never existed. And if you’re being pushed to join now, it’s because scammers are running out of easy targets.

Don’t be the next one.

What Happened to DeFi11?

DeFi11 was founded with a solid idea: use blockchain to make fantasy sports fair. No more fake winners. No more hidden commissions. No more data leaks. The plan was to build a mobile app with a built-in smart wallet, let users stake D11 to enter contests, and pay out rewards automatically via smart contracts. It sounded good on paper.

But building a chain-agnostic DeFi gaming platform is hard. It needs developers, funding, testing, audits, and community trust. DeFi11 didn’t deliver any of that. No public beta. No testnet. No code on GitHub. No whitepaper update since 2022. By the time VulcanForged stepped in, the project had already lost momentum.

VulcanForged is a known player in blockchain gaming. They own projects like VulcanVerse and have real products with users. They didn’t need DeFi11’s failed token. They likely took the team, shelved the D11 token, and focused on their own ecosystem. That’s why D11 vanished - not because it was successful, but because it was abandoned.

Why Do Scammers Target D11?

Because it’s perfect for fraud.

It has a real name. A real CoinMarketCap page. A real acquisition story. But no active users. No real tokens. No one left to say, "That’s not true."

Scammers exploit that gap. They take a dead project, slap on a fake airdrop announcement, and target people who don’t know how to check supply data or verify official sources. They use AI-generated images of fake CoinMarketCap pages. They copy-paste real project descriptions. They make it look official.

They don’t need to be clever. They just need you to be careless.

What’s the Real Status of D11?

As of October 2025:

• Total supply: 275,000,000 D11
• Circulating supply: 0 D11
• Market cap: $0
• Trading volume: $0
• Exchanges: None listed
• Official website: Redirects or offline
• Project team: No recent updates since 2024

This isn’t a low-volume token. This is a dead token. No one owns it. No one can trade it. No one can use it. And no one is giving it away.

What About VulcanForged?

VulcanForged didn’t kill DeFi11 to hide something. They killed it because it didn’t work. They’re focused on their own products: VulcanVerse, VulcanSwap, and other gaming ecosystems that actually have users and revenue. They don’t need a dead token with zero circulation. If they were bringing D11 back, they’d have announced it. They’d have deployed a new contract. They’d have airdropped tokens to early supporters. They didn’t. Because they don’t care about D11 anymore.

Don’t confuse acquisition with revival. Acquisition means buying the assets. It doesn’t mean restarting the project.

How to Spot Fake Airdrops

Here’s your quick checklist:

• ✅ Does the project have a live website with recent updates?
• ✅ Is the token’s circulating supply above 0?
• ✅ Is the airdrop listed on CoinMarketCap’s official airdrop page?
• ✅ Does the announcement come from the project’s verified Twitter/X or Telegram?
• ❌ Are you being asked to send crypto to claim tokens?
• ❌ Are you being asked to connect your wallet to a random site?
• ❌ Is there no clear snapshot date or eligibility rules?

If even one "❌" applies - walk away.

What Should You Do If You Already Sent Crypto?

If you already sent ETH, BNB, or any other crypto to a "D11 airdrop" site, you’ve been scammed. There’s no recovery. No refund. No help from CoinMarketCap. No police will get your money back.

But you can stop it from happening again:

1. Change your wallet password if you entered it anywhere.
2. Use a new wallet for future crypto activity.
3. Block the scam site and report it to your browser or wallet provider.
4. Warn others. Share this article. Don’t let someone else lose money because you stayed quiet.

There’s no shame in being tricked. But there’s shame in letting it happen again.

What Projects Actually Have Real Airdrops in 2025?

If you want real airdrops, look at active projects:

• Uniswap - still has active airdrops for liquidity providers
• Arbitrum - regularly rewards users who interact with its ecosystem
• Optimism - has ongoing retroactive airdrops for early users
• DeSpeed - listed on CoinMarketCap’s airdrop page with clear rules
• Distribute.ai - confirmed airdrop with public eligibility criteria

These projects have live websites, public code, active communities, and verified token distributions. They don’t need to lie. They don’t need to fake it. They’re real.

DeFi11 is not one of them.
