Ampleforth, the rebasing cryptocurrency protocol has now launched its new token FORTH. As part of this, they’re dropping their newly released token to the community. If you’ve ever had a wallet that’s “touched” AMPL, you could be one of the lucky 75,000 people set to get some free FORTH tokens as part of Ampleforth airdrop.
In this tutorial, I explain how to claim Ampleforth FORTH token airdrop, as well as how to earn free FORTH tokens with Coinbase Earn.
What is Ampleforth/AMPL?
Ampleforth was co-founded by entrepreneurs Evan Kuo and Brandon Iles in 2018. With the idea to provide an elastic supply stable-coin that aims to be loosely pegged to the US Dollar.
However, the twist with AMPL is that the supply changes daily. If the demand for AMPL increases, the supply of the tokens also increases to offset changes in price. So when the price is high, wallet balances increase. When price is low, wallet balances decrease.
AMPL is non-dilutive, and supply adjustments are applied universally and proportionally across every wallet’s balance. Meaning that your percent ownership of the network remains fixed.
What Are Ampleforth FORTH tokens?
FORTH is a new governance token that completes the AMPL ecosystem, by putting control of the protocol in the hands of the community. Using the Forth token, holders will be able to vote on changes to the protocol.
The forth token is currently trading at over $40 at the time of this post and with current highs of over $65
The ERC20 token was listed on Coinbase Pro shortly after the token’s reveal along with the likes of popular exchanges such as Binance, Kucoin, and Uniswap.

I interacted with AMPL when I bought it on KuCoin. I never moved it to/through my MetaMask; is there a way to claim FORTH airdrop if I never moved my AMPL off the KuCoin exchange??
I think it may only be through the geyser but might be worth contacting KuCoin.
