Important update regarding Humanity (H)

Last updated: June 26, 2026

The Humanity team has deployed a new contract and issued a new token for $H (Humanity). This article explains what is changing for $H on Kraken, how the airdrop of the new token works, and the timelines for withdrawals and delisting.

What's happening

  • Legacy $H is being delisted. Trading and deposits are permanently disabled, and withdrawals are open.
  • The Humanity team has issued a new token. On Kraken, we have listed it under the ticker $HUMANITY to distinguish it from legacy $H. On-chain, and possibly on other platforms, the new token may still appear as $H.
  • If you held $H at the snapshot, you will receive a 1:1 airdrop of $HUMANITY.
  • $HUMANITY is also set for delisting. Only withdrawals will be supported.

The new token has a different contract from legacy $H. On Kraken, the two are shown under separate tickers so you can tell them apart.

  • Snapshot time: June 8, 2026 at 17:25 UTC, set by the Humanity team.
  • If you held $H at the snapshot, you will receive $HUMANITY at a 1:1 ratio based on your snapshot balance.
  • The airdrop is scheduled for July 1, 2026 at 14:00 UTC.
  • No action is required. $HUMANITY will be credited to your account automatically.
  • $H acquired after the snapshot is not eligible for the $HUMANITY airdrop, in line with the guidelines set by the Humanity team.
  • Your $H withdrawals are open.
  • The Humanity team has provided a claims portal where you can submit a claim directly: Humanity claims portal.
  • Kraken is not involved in this claims process and cannot assist with it. Please direct any questions about claims to the Humanity team.
  • Both $H and $HUMANITY are set for delisting.
  • Only withdrawals are supported for both tokens. Trading and deposits are not available.
  • Withdrawals for both $H and $HUMANITY close on September 25, 2026 at 14:00 UTC.
  • A liquidation period will run from September 28 to October 2, 2026.

We recommend withdrawing any $H or $HUMANITY balances you wish to keep before the withdrawal deadline. Any balances remaining after that date will be subject to liquidation.

Liquidation prices may be significantly below recent reference prices and, in some cases, may result in minimal or no proceeds due to insufficient market liquidity at the time of execution. We strongly encourage you to take action ahead of the deadline rather than relying on the liquidation event. The denomination of liquidation proceeds is determined by prevailing market conditions and cannot be guaranteed or confirmed prior to execution.
