Several Maelstrom portfolio companies launch tokens during calendar 2024 with accompanying points programs.
At least two Maelstrom portfolio companies launched tokens during calendar 2024, each with an accompanying points program: ether.fi (ETHFI, Mar 18 2024, loyalty/membership points) and Ethena (ENA, Apr 2 2024, shards/sats points campaign). This satisfies 'multiple.' Whether 'several' (some readings imply 3+) is met is a judgment for scoring; I did not exhaustively confirm a third. Ethena's exact classification as a 'portfolio company' vs 'advisory holding' is a minor nuance — Maelstrom/Hayes is an investor and founding advisor and received ENA; ether.fi is listed directly in Maelstrom's portfolio.

Outcome evidence
Ethena (Maelstrom portfolio/advisory holding — Hayes a founding advisor via Maelstrom, received ENA) launched its ENA token on April 2, 2024, following the 'shards' points campaign (Feb 19–Apr 1, 2024) and immediately kicking off the Season 2 'Sats Campaign' points program.
ether.fi (named Maelstrom portfolio company) launched its ETHFI governance token on March 18, 2024 (airdrop + Binance Launchpool), with distribution driven by its loyalty/membership points program.
ether.fi loyalty-points program documentation confirming points convert into the token airdrop — the 'accompanying points program' element of the criterion.
Ethena shard (points) campaign documentation confirming the points-farming mechanism preceding the ENA airdrop.
