Tangent Airdrop: tasks and status

updated 04 Jun 2026

Tangent is a DeFi protocol that issues USG, an over-collateralized stablecoin, and sUSG, its yield-bearing version. The protocol runs as a DAO governed by TAN token holders who earn most of the platform's revenue. Participants can earn TAN tokens by depositing into pools, staking, and completing tasks in a points program.

About the project

What Tangent is

Tangent is a DeFi protocol focused on stablecoin services. It issues USG, a stablecoin backed by over-collateralization, and sUSG, which accrues yield for holders.

The protocol operates as a DAO owned by TAN token holders, who receive the majority of earnings from the platform's activities.

How to earn TAN tokens

The project has allocated tokens to two programs. A pre-deposit campaign reserved 2 percent of total supply for early liquidity providers, while a broader USG campaign has 12 percent allocated. Points earned through activities convert to TAN tokens at launch.

You can earn points by holding and staking USG, depositing into liquidity pools, voting on pools, taking out loans, and completing other tasks. Referral links provide a 1.1x boost to points earned.

What it takes

The estimated cost is around $50 and the time around 10 minutes. You need a crypto wallet and stablecoins such as USDC or frxUSD to deposit.

Participation suits people who understand stablecoin protocols and liquidity provision. The pre-deposit campaign has a fixed window, while the broader points program remains open. Check the site for current campaign dates and any requirements.

What to know

Deposits made through the Tangent interface are allocated to Curve liquidity pools. If you have already provided liquidity directly through Curve, you must withdraw and reopen your position through Tangent to qualify for rewards.

The project has not yet launched on mainnet, so participants are engaging with a pre-launch protocol. Smart contract risks apply, and farming stablecoins in DeFi carries the possibility of loss.

Risks and what to watch for

  • Rewards are not guaranteed: the team can modify the points program, allocation percentages, or the terms for converting points to tokens.
  • Smart contracts can have bugs or vulnerabilities that lead to loss of funds.
  • The protocol has not yet launched on mainnet, adding technical and operational risk.
  • Liquidity farming involves market risk: stablecoin pairs can experience slippage and other trading dynamics that affect your position.

Frequently asked questions

What stablecoins can I deposit?

The pre-deposit campaign accepts USDC and frxUSD. These are allocated to Curve pools paired with USG.

How much does it cost to participate?

The estimate is around $50 in stablecoins. You deposit into liquidity pools and earn yield plus points that convert to TAN tokens.

Do I need to use the Tangent website?

Yes. If you have already provided liquidity through Curve directly, you must withdraw and reopen your position via the Tangent interface to earn rewards.

Is my reward guaranteed?

No. The points program rules can change, and the final token amount is not set. Farming also carries the risk of losing funds in the protocol.

What is the referral boost?

Using a referral link gives you a 1.1x multiplier on the points you earn through the points program.
