Introduction – What is an airdrop?
Crypto airdrops are indeed a win-win situation for both the user and the project. Most often than not, there are two ways to be eligible for airdrops:
- Interact with the project by using it.
- Interact with the blockchain where the project is being built.
This is because the project can attract users while the users can earn free crypto or other digital collectibles by just using the project’s platform and other simpler tasks, like sharing their social media accounts, making a review of the project’s website and services, signing up for a newsletter, or holding or staking a specific crypto for a specific period.
For this article, we will begin with blockchains that users can interact with to qualify for potential airdrops on the projects being built on those chains. For the next half, we focus on specific projects with confirmed or unconfirmed airdrops. This is a long read and we recommend saving this article by bookmarking it or sharing it on social media for your to revisit later. Let’s dive in!
First Steps: What do you need to participate in airdrops
To participate in the airdrops listed below, these are general steps before proceeding:
- Have ETH, SOL, or any of the major crypto of these blockchains. (If the project is in Solana, you will need SOL. If the project is in a layer 2 in ETH, and so on.)
- Have a crypto wallet ready. Each blockchain has their own wallets that most of its users are using. For example, in Ethereum, there’s MetaMask. In Solana, there’s Phantom Wallet.
- In majority of the strategies below, you will need the two above to interact with the blockchain or the project.
Crypto Airdrops 2024 – Ecosystem Projects Rewards
Just this year, blockchain game Pixels hosted a massive play-to-airdrop campaign that gave away $PIXEL not just to its players but also to the $RON stakers.

This showed that web3 projects are willing to also reward those who use the blockchain or major networks they are built on top of. For context, an “ecosystem” is formed when multiple projects are built on top of a blockchain. In an ecosystem, users can use a single wallet or a single native token across different platforms and protocols.
Commonly, to be able to qualify for or participate in an airdrop campaign involving the whole ecosystem, a participant can:
- Stake the governance or native token of the ecosystem.
- Use only one web3 wallet across all protocols. Each blockchain has its own wallet that most of its users are using. For example, in Ethereum, there is MetaMask. In Solana, there is Phantom Wallet.
- Use the main features of the main blockchain. One of the most common features is called “Bridge,” where assets from other ecosystems can be transferred to a certain ecosystem.
- Provide liquidity for the ecosystem’s liquidity pools that are used by DEXs.
- Join testnet programs.
With this, here is a list of major blockchains that have ongoing confirmed airdrop campaigns, crypto points programs, or even potential future airdrops.

Solana
Solana (https://solana.com/) is one of the most active ecosystems in terms of the recent surge of airdrops. Known as the rival of Ethereum, it is implementing a Proof-of-History (PoH) consensus mechanism while still using a Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus mechanism. This hybrid mechanism on the network produces faster transaction processes with lower fees.

Manta Network
Manta Network (https://manta.network/) is a multi-modular ecosystem for dApps using ZK proofs and offers two networks—Manta Pacific and Manta Atlantic. Manta Pacific is a layer-2 network for the Ethereum blockchain that is made for EVM-native ZK dApps, as it is expected to provide a scalable and inexpensive gas-free environment.

Airdrop Soon? A List of Potential Airdrop Campaigns
While many community speculations are being formed almost every day about a certain project hosting an airdrop campaign, BitPinas has curated a list of protocols per use case that have no native token yet. Thus, if these protocols decided to launch tokens, an airdrop campaign might happen.
