Backpack is a Solana exchange and wallet from the team behind the Mad Lads NFT collection. It raised $37 million at a $120 million valuation and has run seasonal points programs since 2024.
Current status, reviewed July 2026
In March 2026 Backpack delayed its token launch indefinitely, citing market conditions. Points seasons continue, but there is no announced launch date.
The points program
Season 4 points are live. Backpack has said 25% of any token would go to the community: 24% to points holders and 1% to Mad Lads holders.
How people position for it
- Trade on Backpack Exchange, where volume earns seasonal points
- Hold assets and use the Backpack wallet
- Mad Lads holders have a stated 1% allocation if a token launches
Worth repeating: until Backpack announces a distribution and its criteria, positioning is a bet, not a qualification. Our farming guide covers how to make that bet sensibly.
While you wait on Backpack, your wallet may already qualify for live airdrops.
