How the claim works
Your final kPoints balance determines the amount of KNTQ allocated to your account.
That allocation gives you the right to acquire up to that amount of KNTQ at the fixed $0.26 price during the 10-day window.
For example, an account allocated 1,000 KNTQ can acquire all 1,000 for 260 USDC.
You do not have to claim the full allocation. The interface allows you to select how much USDC you want to use, up to your account's maximum allocation.
The claim price does not change with the KNTQ market price.
How to claim your KNTQ
Go to kinetiq.xyz/kntq and connect the account that participated.
You can access your allocation using a normal wallet or one of the supported account login methods.
For users who participated through an email-based account, email login is the recommended method. Google login can also be used where applicable. Apple login is not recommended for this claim flow.
Once connected:
- Find the Claim your KNTQ banner at the top of the KNTQ page. It will show your maximum claimable allocation and your fixed KNTQ price.
- Click Claim KNTQ.
- Choose the amount of USDC you want to use or select Claim all to acquire your full allocation.
- The claim is executed using USDC on HyperEVM.
- If your wallet is connected to another network, the button will display Switch to HyperEVM. Click it to change networks. Once connected to HyperEVM, the claim action will become available.
- Review the amount of KNTQ you will receive and confirm the transaction.
Make sure the connected account has enough USDC on HyperEVM for the amount you want to claim, plus enough HYPE for any required gas.
If you used the Markets.xyz mobile app
Option 1) Users who participated through an account created in the Markets.xyz mobile app should first try to access the same account using their email login on the Kinetiq site, which is the preferred route.
Option 2) If needed, users can also export the private key associated with their Markets.xyz account and import it into a compatible desktop wallet, then connect that wallet to the Kinetiq claim page.
Treat this as an advanced fallback. A private key provides full control over the account. Never send it to anyone, enter it into a website, or share it with support.
Once the correct account is connected, the claim process is the same.
Option 2) walkthrough of Markets.xyz mobile app
Navigate to Profile --> Click Settings icon
Click Account Details
Export Private Key and follow steps to export if you want to continue
Important: Your private key gives full control of your trading wallet. Anyone who has it can access and move your funds. Store it somewhere safe and offline, never share it with anyone (including Markets.xyz support), and never paste it into a website or app you don't fully trust.
What happens to unclaimed KNTQ?
The claim window remains open for 10 days.
Any portion of the 50M KNTQ allocation that has not been claimed when the period ends will be returned to the Kinetiq Foundation.
Those tokens will then be allocated toward ecosystem and growth initiatives rather than remaining available to participants.
There is no additional claim period announced after the 10-day window, so eligible participants should complete the process before the deadline.
