In this article we see all the latest news of the week on the crypto airdrop front.
Several projects are continuing with their incentive campaigns, with many rewards on the horizon in the coming months. Among the most important, we mention Etherfi with Season 2, Scroll, and Grass. An airdrop from the Telegram ecosystem is also on the way, with the Dogshouse project about to hit the market.
All the details below.
Crypto airdrop: green light for the claim of Etherfi Season 2
The famous protocol of restaking EtherFi, announced a few days ago the start of the claim phase for Season 2 of its crypto airdrop.
All users who between March 15 and June 30 have accumulated Loyalty Points, by depositing or holding assets within the platform, are eligible for the prize.
After the success of the first season, which awarded over 86,960 users with 68 million ETHFI tokens, equal to 6.8% of the supply, here are new prizes on the horizon.
To check if you can claim the airdrop, click on the official claim page, connect your wallet, and verify the allocation.

For the second season Etherfi has allocated 53 million ETHFI tokens, equal to 5.3% of the supply, for a value of approximately 121 million dollars.
At the moment, only 16.4% of the airdrop has been claimed by about 27,000 users, while the remaining 83.6% still needs to be redeemed.
The maximum allocation was 10,000 ETHFI while the minimum was only 1 ETHFI (a significantly lower figure compared to S1 where the minimum was 175 ETHFI).
Despite the total prize being slightly lower, it is worth noting that in the last season there were fewer users participating.
Now all eyes are on Season 3, officially started on July 1st and ending in the first days of September.
For this latest season, 25 million ETHFI tokens, equivalent to 2.5% of the supply, have been set aside. This prize pool should attract new users and incentivize current stakers to stay with EtherFi instead of seeking external yield.
A proposal to allocate 25M ETHFI tokens for Season 3 has been posted on discourse. Voting will be open for the next 5 days. Go vote now! https://t.co/DvmywtP6vx

The layer-2 Scroll introduces the Canvas mode
The well-known Ethereum layer-2 Scroll has introduced a new feature that could have an impact on the next crypto airdrop of the platform.
Following the launch of the Sessions incentive program, and the start of phase 0 and phase 1, Scroll publishes the initiative “Canvas”.
This is a collection of badges NFT that users can mint based on their on-chain metrics. The more active one has been within the Scroll ecosystem, the more badges can be minted, elevating one’s score and on-chain reputation.
Collecting these NFTs could result in a boost for the airdrop allocation of the upcoming SCROLL cryptocurrency.
We point out, however, that at the moment, holding this type of assets does not guarantee the accumulation of marks points, essential to obtain a substantial reward.
You can mint your NFTs by going to the “ecosystem” section and clicking on the various badges.
Scroll Canvas Update!
Many of you have already minted the Scroll Canvas NFT, but there are new badges available for minting that you might not be aware of.
These new badges could boost your chances for the Scroll airdrop, so be sure to mint as many as possible.

Last month to farm the airdrop of Grass
Grass, web3 platform that presents itself as “Data Layer of AI”, is about to complete its own crypto airdrop incentive program, launching the final EPOCH 7.
The protocol, which offers users the possibility to earn monetary rewards by sharing their excess internet connection, is about to finally reward its community after months of hard work.
The last EPOCH will last until August 14th and afterwards the methods by which the farmers can execute the claim of the airdrop will be announced.
You still have little time to participate so hurry up: register with this invitation code and simply browse the web to accumulate as many points as possible.
Check initially that your bandwidth is sufficient to offer a portion to the Grass AI network, and then browse as much as you can.
Tomorrow, Epoch 7 – the final epoch of the Grass Closed Beta – will begin.
Our end game is to build the world’s only open internet scale web crawl and turn the entire public web into a knowledge graph that can be used by any AI model. This matters because only two companies in…

Since its launch in 2023 Grass has grown exponentially, attracting a whopping 100 million nodes. A huge amount of data, extracted from public websites, has ended up in the hands of AI companies that are using it to enhance their businesses.
With the end of the final era of the Closed Beta, this web3 platform is now preparing to enter the heart of the cryptocurrency market, taking another step forward.
Since we are at the final stage of this campaign, it is also necessary to verify your email address and connect a Solana wallet (Phantom or Solflare) to the platform.
Most likely the address you will link will be the one on which you can redeem the crypto airdrop.
The prize will not be particularly lucrative given the abundance of users farming it. However, it represents an excellent method to earn crypto for free, without having to spend too much time.
Dogshouse: the new crypto project that rewards Telegram users with an airdrop
The latest crypto project worth mentioning in this airdrop update is Dogshouse, a new mini-game built on top of the Telegram ecosystem.
The intent of Dogshouse is to reward Telegram users based on the age of their account and the usage they have made of it over the years.
The prize is paid directly in DOGS, the project’s native memecoin which can be redeemed in a few weeks at the TGE.
In the meantime, users can check their statistics by accessing through this code. For now, you can only check how many points you have accumulated, and invite new friends to farm more cryptocurrencies.
In the meantime, you can also connect your web3-enabled wallet to the TON network: among these, the most popular are Tonkeeper, MyTonWallet, Wallet on Telegram, Tonhub, Bitget Wallet, OKX Wallet, and DeWallet.

This is also a very simple free airdrop to redeem, without requiring you to perform any particular operations on the blockchain.
For this reason, Dogshouse is becoming particularly popular in the web3 world, so much so that it has reached the milestone of 20 million users.
Thanks also to the fame of Telegram and the success of the recent tap to earn games that have attracted many participants to the TON network, this project could offer decent rewards.
We remain in anticipation of further updates and the introduction of new game-fi features that can create engagement and entertain the audience, as well as offer a reward.
We’ve reached 20,000,000 users in just 10 days!
Incredible growth and an amazing crowd
Thank you for being part of this journey!#DOGS #DOGSCommunity pic.twitter.com/eTHI1C7nT5
