Airdrops speculations thread

[libert19]

^ I didn't farm $GRASS, I tried but didn't get it to work then gave up, felt like missing out but with the allocations people have got — millions of points getting converted to couple hundred tokens, I don't think I missed out on anything, let's see what price it gets listed on.

Airdrop might not even worth it to cover electricity costs tbh

Now you can check the airdrop eligibility of Grass - you can see it in this Checker: https://www.grassfoundation.io/eligibility

I only got under 100 Grass, is there anyone more than me?

hahaha, My wallet does not meet the requirements.

Kinda drought of good airdrops, been a while, nothing going on much about new worth to farm airdrops either. I have hopes on Swell, put 1 ETH in farming it, hopefully, I'll make ROI back, if not more, TGE soon.

And Scroll too...  But nah.  It's gonna be like those ones like the Cosmos eco.  But yeah...  Scroll tweeted something showing a 'wormhole' which was retweeted by the Wormhole account.  The guys in WH Discord kinda got excited and started saying that it might be an airdrop eligibility for the steakorrr role holders who have continued staking for a decent amount of W.

It's kinda dumb to think Scroll would airdrop to Wormhole stakers but it will be a welcome surprise ngl.

Anyway, can ZRO be staked now?

Those who staked $ETH or $EIGEN on Eigenlayer will be eligible for stakedrop 2, claim to be live soon. Those who staked via LRTs, ask your respective LRT project to know how you will receive your airdropped tokens.

A good news for LRT stakers, the reward distribution itself based on ETH-HOUR (ETH staked x hour) which might be kinda fair.

at least a good news for ETH staker like me who currently losing really bad because recent price dumping, wonder if it even gonna make up some portion my losses .

I'm just pretty pessimistic with the rewards though I guess it's not gonna be as big as phase 1 reward since the whales gonna get all the allocation, this reward distribution formula highly favor people with massive ETH which is kinda normal since it's eigen we're talking about.

I think airdrop meta is coming back in play.  The big anticipated ones are Hyperliquid, Monad, Meteora and JUP season 2 which prolly are gonna pay off well.  And there's also Base airdrop.  Lots of folks are saying they won't issue a token but how tf are the gonna 'decentralize' if they don't?

But yeah, if you have some extra stables lying around just use Base for borrowing, lending, swapping and trading perps.  You won't be sorry.  It could be like the ARB airdrop.

Ey man, how much are we talking about? Im not so into this world of airdrops. I know its depend also in how much you do and also how much you spend in some case, but how much i can earn in this airdrop if for example i have 2000 usd to put on it?.

I read and i talk with a friend that is into it and he said me now is a very dry season and no airdrop is paying off, but like i read in your post it seems like a new wave of a good ones is coming no?

I am not sure why i should connect my wallet to random site rather then pasting my address if i want to check my eligibility for the airdrop. Even if that's legit, the target audience seems to be people who are careless about the security of their wallets. That seems like a bad idea on how to build a community.

Also taking a foundation name that already exist is a red flag and signals incompetence and lack of research.

[libert19]

^ I also prefer pasting address but there is no harm in connecting wallet as long as site doesn't ask for any malicious permissions. IDK what chain this $GRASS is on but on chains such as Solana and Ethereum, wallet shows you what exactly is dapp asking for, if it's 'read address' permission then it's fine — it's a good as pasting address, there is no harm in it.

Sounds legit.
If that's not a Grass fake, than, yeah, it's totally valid.
We all should read the "fine print" on what we sign for, regardless

I think you did your own research when you installed the extension on your computer, and it was no less dangerous than connecting your wallet to the site.


By the way, the team conducted an additional check and if you have an asterisk next to the allocation (see the screenshot below), you need to fill out an appeal form - https://ywnom4oq1na.typeform.com/to/JuHDsxyx

Not really sure how devs gauge users but as a general rule of thumb more activity, the better your chances of getting eligibility and getting up the pay ladder.  I did Arbitrum last year without expecting anything and got 5k ARB tokens which was worth over 5k USD at listing.  I used Wormhole and got around 2k USD.  I got around 1.5k USD in IO tokens without doing anything except being an active community member in PYTH.  I got some DYM, ZRO and a few others just by using their protocols.

But remember, overall I'm mostly just guessing based on experience.  So those projects like Monad, HL, Meteora, etc could pay out peanuts for all we know...  And yeah there's a drought in airdrops rn.  But I don't think it's gonna stay that way for long.

[Volgastallion]

Well thanks for your response mate.

I hope to still being here and reading some of the news and see if i can catch some of them, its really good money like you said in the arbitrum one 5k is a lot.

I need to chase this train, but when the time comes i always lack of time to do it or i dont want to have so much tasks to do.

[dbshck]

The big anticipated ones are Hyperliquid,

Particularly excited about Hyperliquid. I'm really hoping the devs will release the token after Season 2 wraps up at the end of this month. If not, it looks like my points will be diluted once again 😅

Monad

I've heard a lot about Monad, but I haven't been following it closely. How to get involved? Is there a testnet available, or running a validator node?

Monad is a level 1 blockchain and since it does not have a testnet, it is necessary to perform activities in ecosystem projects in order to obtain the right to airdrop. Such projects include Wormhole,  Ambient, Elixir, Stargate, Marginfi, Balancer. This is not an exhaustive list, these are projects I was doing long before I knew about Monad, and which will also need to distribute (or have already distributed) airdrop to their early adopters.

There is an assumption that Monad will generously reward the participants of the Discord, but here I can not suggest anything, because I am not active in this social network.

Can I ask how to get into Hyperliquid, or it's to no avail at the moment due to the ending of the activities?
Thanks and sorry for a question for a question

Thanks, I'll probably wait for the testnet then.

Most of the points for this season are earned through spot holding and trading activities. The exact formula for the point system isn't public and varies each week, but I've found that buying and holding $PURR — a memecoin launched by the devs — has been a decent strategy. Personally, I’ve been consistently earning around 100-200 points each week by holding ~100k of $PURR.

Keep in mind, though, there are only two weeks left in this points season, so if you're just starting now, you might not accumulate a substantial number of points. However, it's still worth checking out Hyperliquid. It's currently the leading perpetual DEX, surpassing older competitors like DYDX and Jupiter.

Hope this helps!

Interesting.
Didn't hear about it too, and when you said DEX with perps, I thought about Event Horizon for a moment, they position themselves as such as well, and there are more events to come
Thanks for info about HyperLiquid, appreciated!

Only time will tell, but it sure does sound interesting.
I hope for everything best for everybody involved.
Marginfi sounds interesting, utilizing off-chain data is a common thing nowadays, as it seems.

Yeah some guys are already kidding around about a Season 3 is coming after the team somewhat botched Season 2.  But I'm cool with it tbh...  That's another chance for me to accumulate points.  The devs seem like they're holding them back the last 6 weeks or so.  We had a couple of good weeks at the start then nada...

As for Monad, there's no testnet or running a validator yet.  Just participate in their Discord and try to get the 'nad role'.  I've been asking itt how to get it but looks like nobody here is a nad as I'm not getting any replies.

Guys over there were airdropped 8k W tokens just for being a nad...  Must be nice.
