For many people who like to participate in airdrops, they may have received a certain number of tokens from airdrops of ARB, ARKM, TIA, JTO and other projects last year. However, compared with the overall number and scale of airdrop projects last year, we predict that there will be more projects that may be airdropped this year, and the overall airdrop scale will be larger. 2024 may usher in a larger airdrop in the crypto field. Year.

In the previous article on the topic of airdrops, we mainly introduced the content of pledge airdrops and some basic gameplay. In today’s article, we will reorganize it from another perspective to see which ecology and project airdrops are currently more popular. Here we only list 3 examples of unissued projects for each ecology. You can search and find more corresponding projects by yourself.

1.Starknet

Commonly used Starknet wallets: Argent X or Braavos

Starknet ecological project:

https://www.starknet.io/en/ecosystem/dapps

Some of the more popular airdrop projects in the Starknet ecosystem are currently:

The first project is AVNU

AVNU is a DEX aggregator on Starknet that aggregates liquidity from 10 kSwap, JediSwap, mySwap, Ekubo, SithSwap, etc. Currently, AVNU has a points system. Users can earn points through transactions. The number of points is related to the number of transactions, transaction amount, frequency, etc. Visually, this score should be used to prepare for subsequent airdrops.

AVNU basic interaction strategy: perform Swap operations through the Trade page and accumulate more points. As shown below.

The second project is JediSwap

JediSwap is a permissionless and composable AMM protocol on Starknet where users can earn a 0.3% share of the platform’s fees by providing liquidity, proportional to their share of the pool.

JediSwap basic interaction strategy: perform Swap operations through the Trade page, exchange ETH for DAI, and then add liquidity to the Pool. As shown below.

The third project is Ekubo

Ekubo is also an AMM protocol on Starknet, allowing users to easily perform Swap operations and provide liquidity. It adopts centralized liquidity and till model, that is, users do not need to transfer tokens, the aggregator can save them in Ekubo for subsequent use, thus completely avoiding expensive token transfers (saving gas fees).

Ekubo's basic interaction strategy: Convert ETH to USDC through the Swap page, and then create a position in the Pool. As shown below.

2.Solana

Solana’s commonly used wallet: phantom

Solana ecological project:

Currently, some of the more popular airdrop projects in the Solana ecosystem are:

The fourth project is Drift Protocol

Drift is currently the#1perpetual DEX on Solana, offering up to 20x leverage, cross margin, and multiple collaterals for on-chain trading.

Its Launchpad uses the Ve(3,3) model built on Sei. Currently, the DEX product is in the testnet testing stage. People who participate in the test can earn points, which may also be prepared for airdrops.

Yaka’s basic interaction strategy: Obtain SEI through Faucet on the SEI testnet, then use SEI to perform trading operations on Yaka DEX, add the traded coins to the pool for LP, and then you can see your points on the Airdrop page. As shown below.

Kawa is a cross-chain lending protocol that provides seamless, floating rate lending for asset lending across multiple networks. The project has three core components: Kawa Core (manages the status of the protocol), Kawa Ports (facilitates cross-chain asset transfers), and XCM Aggregator (increases security against bridging vulnerabilities). The project has now entered the testnet stage, and the team has just launched Galxe activities.

4.Injective

Injective commonly used wallet: keplr

Currently, some of the more popular airdrop projects in the Injective ecosystem are:

The 10th project is Neptune Finance

Neptune is a collateral-based peer-to-peer lending protocol. Users can deposit Token into Neptune and obtain nToken as a voucher. nToken represents the assets deposited by the user and the interest generated in the process; the borrower can borrow money by depositing collateral. If the value of the collateral (volatility) is greater than the borrowing When the value ratio is lower than 1, the user's corresponding account should face partial liquidation. The liquidation of one account will not affect other accounts.

Neptune basic interaction strategy (testnet): Deposit some USDC and INJ through the Lend column, and then lend some USDC through the Borrow column. As shown below.

The 11th project is Helix

Helix is ​​a decentralized order book trading protocol that provides spot and derivatives services and has launched stop-loss order functionality on all perpetual markets.

Of course, in addition to the Injective ecosystem, there are several ecosystems based on Cosmos that are also popular airdrops, and there are also many potential airdrop projects on them. for example:

Osmosis (OSMO): The liquidity center on Cosmos.

Celestia (TIA): The first modular blockchain network.

Kujira (KUJI): An L1 blockchain built on Cosmos, providing advanced DeFi infrastructure.

Stargaze (STARS): An application chain focused on NFT on Cosmos. It currently has the largest transaction volume among all NFT markets/launchboards on Cosmos.

Of course, due to the current popularity of airdrops in Cosmos and related ecosystems/projects, if you don’t have enough funds or energy, you can give priority to participating in staking ATOM, OSMO, INJ and TIA, and then participate in some specific projects in different ecosystems. Daily interactions with the project.

The topic of staking has been described in detail in our previous two articles on the topic of staking airdrops. As for how to allocate the proportion of funds, it depends on who you are optimistic about and your own risk tolerance. Interactive airdrops (zero-lu airdrops) for a specific project in a specific ecology generally have the following interactive methods:

- Interaction on testnet

- Mainnet interaction (such as Swap, etc.)

- Earn points/task activities (such as invitation registration, etc.)

- Free NFT Mint

- Events on specific platforms (e.g. Discord, Galxe, QuestN, etc.)

Wait... In addition to gas fees, this mainly consumes your personal time and energy.

In addition, because there are so many potential airdrop projects at present, the ones we listed above are only a very small part. If you are also interested in airdrop interaction, you can find airdrop projects or tutorials in the following simplest ways:

One is to directly search for “Airdrop” through the X platform to see what airdrops everyone on the Internet has been participating in or promoting recently.

The second is to directly search "project name + airdrop" on Google to find the airdrop instructions or tutorials for the corresponding project.

The third is to use some airdrop aggregation platforms to see what popular airdrop projects there are recently, such as coinmarketcal, airdropalert, Airdrops_io and other platforms.

At the same time, we also need to remind you that no matter what project you are participating in the airdrop, please have a basic understanding of the project itself first, and make sure that the relevant address you visit is the correct official website address (not a phishing link).
