The crypto market is full of platforms that make Airdrop for active users. Our experts tell you how to identify a promising project based on three criteria
Airdrop has become an extremely popular trend in the cryptocurrency market. On the one hand, users are migrating en masse to second-tier networks in the expectation of hunting for future Airdrops there. On the other hand, projects everywhere announce the release and distribution of tokens in advance in order to attract the audience.
Thus, the market is in a hype, which greatly disperses the attention of users. Previously, there were only a few projects on the public ear, for the manifestation of activity in which you should expect a solid distribution of tokens. Now, since money and time are limited. And there are a lot of options - we have to choose which Airdrop is really worth hunting for.
The first and foremost criterion in selecting a project is the amount of investment involved in that project
There are several reasons for this. First, the presence of large financial injections indicates a potentially high valuation of the project in the future. This directly affects the rate of the future token and, consequently, the size of the eirdrop in terms of dollars.
Secondly, the presence of large investors is also a kind of guarantor that there are no fraudsters behind the platform. As a rule, investment funds do know where they put their money. The identities of the developers are known, where they live, where they are registered. This significantly reduces the risk that the founders of the project will be able to misappropriate the assets of users and hide with them. Since in this case it will be easier for the police to find them.
Third, significant investment is a resource for both creating a good product and organizing a successful marketing campaign.
It is especially good when the investors are well-known large investment funds. For example, such as Binance Labs, Blockchain Capital, a16z and others. These are titans of the crypto market who know their business and usually support projects at the development stage and beyond.
Second criterion is the number of users and competition in this Aridrop
The presence of large investments and big names among investors is not enough. At least because the project may fail and not pay off. But another reason could also be "overfarming". When there are too many users hunting for a giveaway. And the allocation of tokens for each may turn out to be too small.
So, if you have chosen a few projects with good investments. Then you should check them for the number of users chasing the future Airdrop. Or check what you need to do to get at least into the first 50% of the user rating.
To do this is not so easy, projects do not always give transparent information on this matter. So you have to look for it in roundabout ways. Here are two options:
Today, many projects have introduced a points system, on the basis of which future tokens will be distributed. As a rule, the project publishes a rating of users by the number of points they have accumulated. Having analyzed this rating, you can estimate what you will need to do to get ahead of most of your competitors.
If, say, to get into the top 20-30% of users will require a huge effort - probably, the project is "overfarmed", and it is not worth spending time and money on it. And vice versa: the easier and cheaper it is to gain points and move higher in the ranking. The greater the potential of the airdrop size specifically for you.
Another example: the derivatives platform Satori.
Despite the huge number of users, get into the first 10 thousand by rating. And it is enough to invest on the platform a couple of thousand dollars for a few weeks.
In the second option and when working in the networks of the second level, the analytical platform Dune will help you. It allows you to see statistics on different blockchains for all wallets. You can find out how much users have invested. And how many transactions they made and for how much, how many days and months they were active.
Based on this information, you can figure out what you need to do to outperform most of your competitors in terms of activity. Our experts recommend trying to get at least into the first 30% of the rating. It is likely that those who are not in the top 50% will be left without an Airdrop or receive a low allocation.
Third criterion is the time the project has been in existence and the expected time to Airdrop
We have selected a few projects with large investments - then we have weeded out those with large competition - now we need to understand how long we have left to wait for a potential Airdrop. If there is a high probability that the distribution will be in a month or two, it is better to skip this project for two reasons.
First, you risk not having enough months of activity to get an eirdrop.
Secondly, even if you know that airdrop is a month away and the snapshot hasn't been made yet - it's still debatable to stop on this project. You'll be way behind in points from early users and won't have time to gain much allocation. Therefore, it only makes sense to participate in such giveaways if there are no alternatives. It is better to strive to join the project at an early stage.
Conclusions
It is not easy to find interesting projects with good airdrop potential, but it is not so difficult. Yes, you need to spend time, gather statistics and analyze them. But this is the job of an " airdrop hunter", and it is important to do it. It will help you avoid an extremely unpleasant situation. And in which you will not only waste money and time on an empty project. And you'll also miss out on another good giveaway.
Of course, you can do simpler and focus on airdrop, which are known to everyone. This is also a working solution: if a huge community is hunting for a particular giveaway, it's for a reason. However, by following the masses and Influencers, you are more likely to arrive at an "overfarmed" project and later than others.
Your main task is to find a project with good investments, enter it before the majority. And when it becomes famous - move to the next potential airdrop.
