Switchboard ($SWTCH) hit the market this week, and it’s not just another listing drop. What stands out is that two major campaigns were rolled out on day one: a Launchpool with millions of tokens allocated through staking, and a CandyBomb event tied to trading activity.
That’s unusual!!
Usually we see one or the other, but here both were launched in parallel.
For context: Switchboard isn’t a meme or hype token, it’s an oracle protocol that started on Solana and now spans 10+ chains. Oracles aren’t flashy, but they’re critical. DEXs, lending markets, and DeFi apps need accurate price feeds and randomness to function. That at least gives SWTCH a functional role, whether or not the market values it short term.
The question is: does combining staking rewards + trading incentives at launch create a stronger base, or does it risk flooding supply too early? I haven’t seen many exchanges use this exact structure with such a large pool.
Would you consider this a clever way to bootstrap liquidity and users, or just a short-term pump tactic?
Switchboard ($SWTCH) goes live with dual campaigns . Is it a clever launch or short-term hype?
