Airdrops evolved a ton over the past year. They went from social spamming to proving liquid to new protocols and testing our new functions for rewards. Today we share our top airdrop picks for the summer. Since 2017, we have analyzed over 15 thousand airdrops and published around one-third of them. Imagine receiving free money just by being in the right place at the right time. Sounds too good to be true, right? Well, welcome to AirdropAlert.com. This blog will dive into our airdrop picks across a few different niches within this space. But first, let’s talk about why this summer might feel a bit dull for crypto enthusiasts.
Summer Blues in the Crypto World
Summer is usually a quiet time for the crypto market. Trading volumes drop. Prices stagnate. Many investors and traders take a break, waiting for the next big wave. It’s a period where the excitement from the bull runs seems to fade away. But fear not! While the market may seem slow, airdrops are a fantastic way to stay engaged and potentially earn some free tokens. While the market is slow, airdrop farmers are cooking!
Why Airdrops?
Airdrops are a win-win for both projects and participants. Projects gain exposure and early users or liquidity. Participants get free tokens. Claiming airdrops is straightforward. With minimal effort, you can diversify your crypto portfolio. Let’s explore some of the best airdrops happening right now.
Even during these more boring days, there are plenty of airdrop distributions happening. Like just this week we’ve seen zkSync, Orderly, and Azuro distribute tokens to their farmers. Click the links to check if you are eligible for those.
Here are our Top Airdrop Picks for this Summer
Are you ready? Drum-rolls….. Here we go.
1] Blast
We have to kick this list off with Blast. This must have been the biggest airdrop farming opportunity of the year, or maybe decade. With the valuation estimations around the upcoming TGE, the amount being airdropped will run into Billions of dollars. Not only can you passively farm it by providing liquidity in ETH, or Stablecoins. You have dozens of options for actively farming it using the hundreds of dApps on this layer 2.
You can find all the information about the Blast Mainnet Airdrop on our listing page. There are still 2 weeks left to farm some points & gold. Make sure to maximize your multiplier of points by using the dApps. We published a guide on how you can do this with minimum effort. Today, a new multiplier was published so you can get up to 22x your points. We will update the blog accordingly today or tomorrow.
CBB, the farmer in the image above. Singlehandedly farmed a 7-figure Blast Airdrop. Yes, 7 figures. Just blast gold is estimated at around 5-6$ and is selling there on pre-markets. So at 5$ per gold, his Blast gold is worth $1.8 Million. And he still has 66B blast points to go. I’m guessing he is gonna get over $5 million from this single airdrop.
2] PixelTap
If you have been farming airdrops with us for a couple of months, you may remember the Pixelverse airdrop. Many farmers claimed a few thousand dollars worth of $PIXEL.
Well, it’s time to put on those working gloves again, because the Pixelverse is back with a new $PIXFI airdrop. This time around, they are jumping onto the new hyped meta of “tap-to-earn” games. Simply by playing mini-games on your phone, by literally tapping your screen, you can farm these types of airdrops.
You can find the step-by-step guide on PixelTap right here.
3] Olive Network
We believe a new trend will be rising over the next few months, and it’s layer-3 blockchains. The past year has been mostly focused on farming layer-2 airdrops, and why not move it one level up for the remainder of the bull cycle?
Olive Network is the first layer-3 airdrop we listed. Focused on staking & restaking (LST) with a couple of partnerships with well-known names like Eigenlayer, KelpDao, EtherFi, and a couple more. Study all the airdrop details on AirdropAlert.com
4] BetFury
It’s betting season! All degens are in full force betting on the Euro Cup 2024, and the Copa America starting soon as well. Ngl, I’m pretty active on those crypto sportsbooks these days as well. Placing some bets, watching matches, and having fun while I do a little airdrop farming and bonus hunting. Why not ey?
Just yesterday, we listed an airdrop campaign of a decent crypto casino, that offers u plenty of airdrop farming opportunities while you place some bets. Go check out Betfury.
5] Get Grass
If you haven’t seen this airdrop before this blog, you’ve been living under a rock ser. A few hundred community members of Airdrop Alert have been passively farming this for months now.
In short, it’s a DePIN airdrop that u just need to connect by running an extension, and you are farming a future Grass Airdrop. Even right now, while I’m writing this, I’m farming Grass!
You can learn how to join it as well, just have a quick read of our guide.
6] Shards
One niche within this space we can’t ignore in our airdrop picks is Gaming Airdrop. Plenty of pro gamers have turned airdrop farmers this year, and on the other hand, crypto enthusiasts have become gamers! It’s a win-win to combine 2 worlds.
The Shards airdrop has been one of our recent opportunities in this category. With some simple quests, you can start earning $SHARDS. Study this, if you want to join the movement.
7] Eigenpie
The staking and Restaking (LST) airdrops have been a money-printing machine for farmers this whole year. The only downside is; that you need a decent chunk of capital to participate, and you’re effectively locking it away to farm.
One of the latest ones is Eigenpie. If you have some ETH to spare, you can farm this airdrop while you also farm Eigenlayer points.
How to Claim Airdrops Safely
While airdrops are exciting, always be cautious. Scammers often mimic legitimate projects. Here are some tips to stay safe:
- Verify the project’s authenticity.
- Use a separate wallet for airdrops.
- Never share your private keys.
- Join reputable communities for information.
- Follow us an X as we do the due diligence for you. Make sure you follow the correct account @airdropalertcom because there are plenty of impersonators of us.
- Use Wallet Guard or Pocket Universe as an extra layer of wallet security
