Rainbow has just confirmed their long-awaited token will go live on February 5. This comes after the team pushed back from their original Q4 target, but it sounds like the wait's almost over now.

The token generation event and airdrop are designed to give props to the people who've actually stuck with the protocol and used it over time. Basically, the team is rewarding loyalty—early adopters and active wallet users get recognized when this thing launches.

It's the kind of move we've seen work well in the space when projects want to build real community rather than just hype. The timing puts it right in the February wave of token releases, so worth keeping on your radar if you've been following Rainbow's development.
