Introduction

Cryptocurrency airdrops have become a popular way for blockchain projects to distribute tokens to a wide audience. These airdrops can help build communities, promote new projects, and reward early supporters.

What is an airdrop?

In cryptocurrency, airdrop refers to the distribution of free tokens or coins to a large number of users or wallet addresses. This distribution is usually done by the project team to promote their new cryptocurrency or service on the blockchain. Airdrops can be used for a variety of purposes, such as marketing, rewarding loyal customers, or decentralizing token ownership.

Binance users can participate in airdrops through various products and services, including the Binance Airdrop Portal, Binance Megadrop, and the Web3 Airdrop Zone (which is part of the Binance Web3 Wallet).

In this article, we will focus on the Airdrop portal on Binance. We will discuss the differences between the Binance Airdrop Portal and the Web3 Airdrop Zone at the end of this article. For more information about Binance Megadrop, please see the Binance Megadrop guide. 

What is the Airdrop Portal on Binance?

Binance Airdrop Portal is a special Binance platform that facilitates the distribution of on-chain airdrops. It allows blockchain projects to easily distribute their tokens to Binance users and provides a centralized place for users to find and participate in airdrops. The portal aims to simplify the airdrop process, making it more efficient and accessible to everyone.

How does the Airdrop portal work on Binance?

For blockchain projects, the Airdrop portal on Binance offers a simple and efficient way to distribute tokens. It is a convenient way for users to participate in airdrops and receive tokens.

Users can browse the Airdrop portal to learn about upcoming and current airdrops. The portal provides information about each airdrop, including links to relevant announcements. Announcements usually provide detailed information about the history of the project, the token being distributed, and the eligibility criteria.

To participate in the airdrop, users must meet the criteria set by the project. This can be storing a certain cryptocurrency on a Binance account, performing certain tasks, or simply registering for an airdrop.

After the airdrop is completed, the distributed tokens are automatically credited to Binance user accounts. In most cases, the tokens will be credited directly to the user's Binance spot wallet. Users can then trade, store or use these tokens as they see fit.

Airdrop portal on Binance and airdrop zone in Web3-wallet

What are the differences between the Binance Airdrop Portal and the Web3 Airdrop Zone?

While both platforms provide access to crypto airdrops, the Binance Airdrop portal focuses on on-chain airdrops delivered to Binance users' accounts (i.e. their Binance spot wallet).

The Web3 airdrops area is focused on third-party airdrops from Web3 that are tied to the Binance Web3 wallet. Such airdrops often have missions or tasks, and rewards are distributed to Binance users' decentralized Web3 wallets (rather than their regular Binance accounts).
