Airdrops to Hunt - EigenLayer Restaking & Kelp, Staking Narrative, DYM AltLayer & Zeta Airdrops, Cosmos Celestia Injective Ecosystems, Berachain, And More
Airdrop content curated for you
GM frens.
2024 is already the year of Airdrops.
There are currently two main Narratives:
Staking tokens on new/trendy ecosystems to receive Airdrops from new Projects
Restaking LST on EigenLayer, via services like Kelp to receive double rewards
Let’s find out about these.
Of course you will still find “regular” Mainnet & Testnet Strategies, as always.

How to approach Airdrop farming (thedefiedge)
It has not always been like that. But now it’s something so widespread, with so many things to farm, that you have to consider it like that, to not miss opportunities.
EigenLayer & Kelp Alpha (its_airdrop)
Don’t fade Stader & Kelp.
EigenLayer will be one of the biggest airdrops, and LRT one of the biggest narratives. Interact with it via Kelp.
Kelp Airdrop should also be really interesting.

DYM Airdrop & Allocation (alpha_pls & Airdrops_one)

Keep in mind the allocation for TIA Staking will arrive at a later time.
Zeta first Airdrop (Airdrop_Adv)
I’ve mentioned Zeta many times, for months, but I’m not gonna lie, I didn’t get the 50k points. It was a hard one to get.
Rabby Points to Claim (Airdrop_Adv & Rabby_io)
For MetaMask Swap users.
Easy points to get, that could become tokens later.
You just need to download Rabby and claim the points.

Taiko Galxe Campaign (KashKysh)
Social Tasks and more.

INJ Staking (rektfencer)
How & where to stake INJ to receive potential airdrops.
INJ has not been as rewarding as Cosmos or Celestia Ecosystems for now, but the ecosystem is filled with new projects so they might start distributing airdrops soon.
PYTH Staking (0xDefiLeo)
Parcl, Monad, Drift, and more could airdrop to Pyth Stakers.
More Staking Strategies (0xJok9r)

Wormhole Strategies (MingoAirdrop & 0xPepesso)
Wormhole raised $225M and is a competitor to LayerZero.
You’ll need to use multiple chains & wallets to do all the interactions.
Sui Eco Strategy (0xAndrewMoh)
Sui is more and more popular lately.
Learn how to set up a wallet, and use multiple projects on Sui like KriyaDEX, Aftermath, Scallop, and more.
4/ Testnet Strategies
Keep in mind Testnets usually don’t cost anything, but they rarely reward anything.
But it's starting to change, there are more and more interesting Testnets these days.
Deploy a Smart Contract on Berachain (KashKysh)
Berachain is one of the testnet that could reward a juicy airdrop.
They raised $42M and have multiple successful NFT collections.
Deploy a Smart Contract on Eclipse (the_smart_ape)
Eclipse is an L2 for Ethereum powered by the Solana Virtual Machine.
It uses DA from Celestia.
So we have Solana + Celestia + L2 Narratives.
Taiko Strategy (KashKysh)
This is the final Testnet before Mainnet.
Taiko raised $22M.
Aleo Strategy (ardizor)
They raised close to $300M.
Aleo is an L1 blockchain designed to be faster and more efficient than traditional models by leveraging ZK proofs.
15% of the supply allocated to the public distribution.
SatoshiVM Strategy (atoms_res)
SatoshiVM is a decentralized Bitcoin ZK Rollup Layer 2 solution compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) ecosystem, using native BTC as gas.
Early testers should receive rewards.
