On Mar. 1, cryptocurrency exchange OKX announced that it would airdrop 3,014,381 Tether (USDT) to users who suffered losses as a result of the Celestial (CELT) token trading incident. On Feb. 26, Celestial revealed the development of a novel blockchain game, followed by extensive social media campaigns promoting the project’s alleged backing by OKX. Shortly afterward, the price of CELT pumped nearly 100% in two days before plummeting over 60%, after OKX clarified it had no affiliation with the project other than a $100,000 investment from OKX Ventures in Nov. 2021.
