"Shiden Network is a canary network that acts as an R&D chain of Plasm Network. PLM token holders can claim SDN tokens, the native token of Shiden Network, at a 1:1 ratio.

- Parachain Auction: one of the initial goals of Shiden Network is to become a Kusama Parachain. Shiden will distribute 32.5% of SDN tokens to KSM lockdrop participants (Parachain Lease Offering) with a vesting period.

- Plasm Network Portal: This portal is a tool for dApps developers and PLM token holders to stake PLM, earn PLM, and deploy applications."

If you have not participated in the Plasm Network lockdrop, then you will not receive tokens yet.
Tokens are not yet traded on exchanges.

https://astar.network/builders-program/
"Builders for Builders is a new initiative that aims to empower teams building Substrate-based parachains to develop and grow their own ecosystem of builders developing on top of their parachain. As part of the Builders for Builders initiative, the Substrate Builders Program team will share best practices gained from running the SBP for over a year now to help parachain teams build their own similar programs for teams building solutions on top of their parachain. These programs, called Parachain Builders Programs (PBP) will allow parachain teams to become mentors to others and develop their own thriving community of builders, enriching the Polkadot ecosystem as a whole."

Astar/Shiden & Cosmos Bridge Proposal - Builders Program Application
"This project is a bridge connecting the Astar/Shiden network(based on Substrate) to a Cosmos-SDK based blockchain. The bridge enables transferring and receiving assets using the ICS20 standard 7 for the two blockchains.

More explicitly from the ICS20 standard 7, this bridge will maintain 1:1 pegging of the assets cross-chain."

Astar has problems. They do not want to unlock the token for the lockdrop participants right away.
The organizers offer vesting to the participants of the lockdrop. The lockdrop participants blocked their Ethereum coins for 3 years at a price of about $ 400.
A very interesting situation. On the one hand, lockdrop is an investment and conditions can be changed, but on the other hand, these are double standards.

Problem solved
https://forum.astar.network/t/vesting-for-lockdrop-participants-for-eth/2008/194
"The reason for the short vesting period for 1000 days lockdrop participants is that they took the biggest opportunity cost. Their ETH is still locked in the smart contract, and they can’t do anything with that. Also, the 7 months from the date of release marks around 2 years from when the ETH was locked. The vesting is in line with the vesting period as participants in the Astar Crowdloan Event. As for 300, 100, and 30 days participants, their ETH has been unlocked and claimed back."
