Superposition‘s chain is shutting down on September 8, 2026, and any assets left on it after that date may no longer be accessible.
If you hold funds or positions on Superposition, migrating them off before the deadline takes priority over anything else in this guide.
Status: Chain winding down, migrating to Arbitrum One, no confirmed $SPN token airdrop
Token confirmed: No, a future retroactive airdrop for $SPN has been referenced but not confirmed. Superposition Points convert to 9lives points, which may factor into a separate future 9lives airdrop, also unconfirmed
Reward: Points-based activity through 9lives prediction markets, Nomis reputation scoring, and Vendor Finance lending, all continuing through the migration to Arbitrum One
Chain: Superposition (shutting down September 8, 2026), migrating to Arbitrum One
The project launched as a DeFi-native Layer-3 chain built on the Arbitrum stack, designed to combine native liquidity with utility mechanisms for decentralized applications.
The team is now consolidating around 9lives, which has already moved to Arbitrum One, with Superposition continuing on as a product house shipping apps there rather than operating its own chain.
Move Your Funds Off Superposition First
Before anything else, remove liquidity from Camelot and any other protocol where you hold a position on Superposition, then bridge all remaining funds and assets to Arbitrum One before September 8, 2026.
Several things are confirmed to carry over automatically as part of this migration:
- Superposition Points keep accruing and convert to 9lives points.
- Meow Domains carry over and keep working on Arbitrum One.
- Outstanding 9lives markets still open on Superposition will be resolved before the deadline.
- A snapshot of NFTs and on-chain activity has already been taken, so your holdings and history are preserved on the record even after the chain itself winds down.
Full details are available in Superposition’s own migration guide linked from its official site.
Am I Eligible for Ongoing Superposition and 9lives Activity?
Anyone can participate in the activities described below, which now run primarily through 9lives and related integrations rather than directly through Superposition’s own chain.
There’s no confirmed $SPN or 9lives token airdrop yet, so eligibility here applies to points accumulation with future relevance, not a guaranteed reward.
If you are tracking other campaigns other than Superposition, our airdrops page covers the active campaigns worth watching right now.
How to Participate
- If you hold any funds or positions on Superposition, prioritize removing liquidity and bridging everything to Arbitrum One before September 8, 2026, following the official migration guide.
- Visit the 9lives prediction market to try the hourly Bitcoin price prediction game, where a $1 bet on the correct outcome pays $3, while an incorrect prediction returns a $0.90 refund. Connect your wallet, place a prediction, and track your position from there.
- Check for additional markets beyond the original hourly Bitcoin game, since 9lives has since added an hourly Google market and daily markets covering Bitcoin and the Nasdaq-100, and the platform is also available through the Base app.
- Earn 9lives points through several actions beyond direct predictions, including purchasing predictions on hourly or daily markets, making predictions in advanced mode, creating your own markets, or adding liquidity to the platform. Track your standing on the public leaderboard.
- If you are interested in on-chain reputation, visit the Nomis platform on Superposition, connect your wallet, and allow the system to analyze your on-chain activity history. Minting an NFT Score displays your generated reputation score and can be recognized by other applications that support it.
- If you want exposure to Vendor Finance‘s fixed-term, fixed-rate lending market, visit the platform directly. Lenders can create a pool with their own chosen terms and manage positions under the My Pools tab, while borrowers can browse existing pools, deposit collateral such as Dinero orbETH to borrow WETH, or borrow FLY tokens to stake for Superposition points.
Potential Risks in Participating
Superposition’s chain shutdown changes the risk picture here in a way that’s more significant than a typical airdrop campaign.
Funds Left on Superposition After September 8, 2026 May Become Inaccessible
This is the single most important risk in this guide. Superposition’s own team has stated that assets left on the chain after the shutdown date may no longer be accessible. If you have any funds or open positions there, treat migrating them to Arbitrum One as urgent rather than something to get to eventually.
No Token Airdrop Is Confirmed for Either $SPN or 9lives
Points accumulated through Superposition or 9lives are not a guaranteed path to a future token. Both a retroactive $SPN airdrop and any future 9lives-specific distribution remain unconfirmed, so treat ongoing point-earning activity as speculative rather than a confirmed reward pipeline.
The 9lives Prediction Market Involves Real Money Bets
The hourly Bitcoin prediction game uses real dollar bets rather than free tasks, with a fixed payout structure. Even though incorrect predictions return a partial refund rather than a total loss, this is still a real-money wagering activity, and you should treat it with the same caution you’d apply to any other prediction market rather than as a free points-farming mechanism.
Vendor Finance Lending and Borrowing Carries Standard DeFi Risk
Vendor Finance’s fixed-term, fixed-rate structure is designed to avoid liquidation risk and oracle dependency, but that doesn’t eliminate risk entirely. Lenders are exposed to counterparty and smart-contract risk in any pool they fund, and borrowers should fully understand a loan’s terms before depositing collateral.
Points Values and Earning Rates Can Change
9lives has stated that point values and earning rates are subject to change based on community feedback, and referral rewards were still pending as of the most recent update. Don’t assume current point-earning rates for any specific action will remain the same.
Frequently Asked Questions
Need a refresher? Here are the questions most readers ask about the Superposition airdrop and its chain shutdown.
Is Superposition shutting down completely?
The Superposition chain itself is shutting down on September 8, 2026, and assets left on it after that date may become inaccessible. The team and its main product, 9lives, continue operating on Arbitrum One, with Superposition functioning going forward as a product house rather than an independent chain.
What happens to my Superposition Points?
They keep accruing and convert to 9lives points as part of the migration to Arbitrum One. A snapshot of NFTs and on-chain activity was also taken to preserve holdings and history through the transition.
Is there a confirmed Superposition or 9lives airdrop?
No. A future retroactive $SPN airdrop has been referenced but not confirmed, and no separate 9lives token or airdrop has been confirmed either. Treat point accumulation as speculative rather than guaranteed.
Can I still use the original Superposition testnet campaign?
No. That original testnet campaign included a faucet, a bridge, and quest-based tasks through Intract and Galxe. Current activity now runs through 9lives and related integrations instead.
Does the 9lives prediction market require real money?
Yes. Predictions use real dollar bets rather than free tasks, with a $1 bet returning $3 for a correct prediction or a $0.90 refund for an incorrect one. Treat it as a real-money activity rather than free points farming.
