6 Airdrops [CONFIRMED]to be Distributed in 3 months
The current slowdown in airdrops is something we’ve seen before. After the Arbitrum airdrop in 2023, we got stuck with many low-value airdrops, like Arbswaps and Sui project campaigns, where rewards were only $1-$5. People thought the days of good airdrops were over.
But then, bigger airdrops like Pyth, Wormhole, and Aevo came along, in the end, I believe airdrops follow a cycle: people join, it gets saturated, the market resets, and then we see good airdrops again.
Airdrops will get harder and less profitable over time, but for now, there’s still money to be made. Just be smart don’t put all your funds into one project. Spread out, be patient, and stay alert.
While airdrops are becoming less frequent, I believe we still have some good opportunities left this year. Some of these are even confirmed to happen in the next three months. Here’s the list I’ve gathered:
Cook
Cook is the governance token for the Mantle Liquid Staking Protocol, a project built by Mantle chain. They have already allocated 15% of the total supply for their first airdrop.
The airdrop campaign is 100 days long, with 48 days remaining. This means the airdrop should happen shortly after the campaign ends.
In a nutshell, we stake or LP mETH (the liquid version of ETH on Mantle) and earn “powder” (points) every 24 hours. Depending on your total points by the end of the campaign, you’ll receive a portion of the airdrop allocation.

Hyperliquid
The airdrop was initially scheduled a few months ago, but they started building their chain. In May, they decided to delay the airdrop for another four months, so the campaign now ends between the last week of September and the first week of October.
Hyperliquid is a trading platform where we earn points based on our volume in perpetual (leveraged) trading and swaps.

Hyperlane
On August 8th, they announced the creation of the Hyperlane Foundation and the token name $HYPE. Whenever a project starts a foundation, it’s usually a sign that an airdrop is around the corner, typically within three months.
We don’t know if they’ve already taken the snapshot, so I recommend using Hyperlane organically whenever you need to bridge funds.
Here are some of the bridges I like to use:

Linea
Linea’s TGE is planned for October or when they reach $3B in TVL, whichever comes first. Starting now, it’s quite challenging to rank up, requiring staking or LPing funds to earn LXP-L. While it’s not impossible to get an airdrop, using just a few hundred bucks will likely yield minimal returns since it’s based on the liquidity provided and you’ll be competing with users with millions that have been supplying for months.
Mode
While I’m not overly excited about this one since the first distribution wasn’t great, I have been staking ETH on the Mode chain while making a few transactions per week.
Currently, we earn points by being active on the chain, such as trading, swapping, adding liquidity, and staking Mode tokens, which also offers a multiplier.
I’m not expecting much, but since I’m only using it a few times a week while staking some ETH I wasn’t planning to sell, it’s been relatively easy to rank up.
They’ve allocated 5.5% of their supply for the second airdrop, and this campaign ends on September 6th. We can expect the distribution to happen shortly after.

Anzen
Like Linea, we don’t have a specific date for the TGE, but they announced that the airdrop will happen sometime in Q4 of this year.
Anzen is the parent company of the stablecoin USDz. They raised $4M from multiple VCs, including Circle, and have a campaign where we can stake or LP using USDz to earn z-points.
My favorite way to participate is by staking USDz on Gudchain, a blockchain built for gaming that currently has an airdrop campaign where we also earn points by staking funds. Gudchain raised $5M a few months ago.
