It is not yet clear who will be eligible for the airdrop or if a snapshot has already been taken.

Key Takeaways
CowSwap, a decentralized exchange built on top of the Gnosis V2 Protocol, seems like it might be preparing an airdrop for its token.
Airdrop Season
A Gnosis decentralized exchange called CowSwap appears likely to launch a token airdrop, having updated a Github repository showing code for a token drop. It includes statements like “emits token generation event” and “cannot be claimed after deadline.”
The Gnosis Protocol V2 uses batch auctions to help protect users from MEV, a scenario in which miners or arbitrageurs extract value from users by reordering, adding, or even censoring transactions. The Gnosis Protocol V2 also integrates liquidity sources across various decentralized exchanges.
CowSwap is the Gnosis V2 Protocol’s first decentralized exchange. Among other things, it utilizes a mechanism called the “Coincidence of Wants”—if one user holds an asset that another user wants and that user owns an asset the first user wants, then CowSwap will match these two users and directly settle the trade without using an automated market maker.
It is unclear if the snapshot determining airdrop eligibility for the CowSwap token has already take place, though some have still interacted with the CowSwap protocol today in the hopes of qualifying for the airdrop.
CowSwap’s alpha was launched in April on the same day that a major partnership between Gnosis and Balancer, an Ethereum automated market maker, was announced. Crypto Briefing highlighted CowSwap as a potential contender in its recent article detailing 10 promising candidates for token airdrops in 2022.
Several airdrops have taken place over the last few days. On Christmas Eve, OpenDAO airdropped its SOS token to OpenSea users. Earlier today, Gas DAO launched a token airdrop to 643,000 Ethereum network participants. However, that token is already down roughly 70% from its all-time high, and the SOS token has done nearly as poorly. This is a common trend for major airdrops this year, as all of the major Ethereum token airdrops of 2021 are down at least 50% from their highs.
