Airdrop<\/a> opportunities from L2 rollup Arbitrum<\/a>, the SUI testnet, and zkSync are on the horizon for those who missed out on the Aptos ATP drop on Oct. 19, 2022.<\/strong><\/p>\n On Oct. 20, 2022, the Aptos Foundation airdropped 20,076,150 APT tokens to 110,235 participants, netting some community members as much as $6,000.<\/p>\n The Aptos network<\/a> is a layer-one blockchain focused on scalability and modularity. Two former Meta employees started the project. It uses a smart contract programming language called MOVE. Additionally, it\u00a0improves transaction throughput<\/a>\u00a0through a process called pipelining. It is also designed to be modular, making frequent upgrades possible.\u00a0<\/p>\n Airdrops<\/a> are often used to create buzz around a new crypto project. Users qualify to receive free crypto coins or tokens for doing specific tasks designed to bring greater awareness to a particular project. The company or project can leverage this awareness in future fundraising opportunities like initial coin offerings.<\/p>\n While Aptos only allowed community members meeting specific criteria to claim APT, other networks are rolling out airdrops in the coming weeks and months that could prove even more lucrative. What follows is not an exhaustive list.<\/p>\n Blur.io, an NFT marketplace<\/a> and aggregator for pro traders started offering airdrops<\/a> on Oct. 19, 2022. The airdrops consist of care packages for trading NFTs<\/a> in the last six months. The care packages contain BLUR tokens, which won\u2019t be visible until Jan. 2023, when Blur.io launches its governance. A bigger Airdrop 2 will go to those who \u201cactively list on blur,\u201d while the first airdrop is to bring traffic to the site. You can still qualify for the first airdrop if you list an NFT on Blur.io in the next 13 days. You can qualify for the second round in Nov. 2022.<\/p>\n Rumors also suggest that\u00a0Ethereum layer-two rollup Arbitrum<\/a>\u00a0could airdrop ARBI tokens soon. The tokens could arrive in Q4 2022 or early 2023. To become eligible, some suggest bridging to Arbitrum to get funds through. Also, the L2 solution announced\u00a0Arbitrum Odyssey<\/a>\u00a0earlier this year to qualify you for certain Arbitrum NFTs, which could be part of the airdrop eligibility criteria. The Odyssey included a list of weekly tasks that, if completed, would entitle you to an NFT. Offchain Labs paused Odyssey to allow Arbitrum to undergo the Nitro upgrade. Since the Nitro upgrade occurred close to the Ethereum Merge, the Arbitrum team will likely reactivate Odyssey soon.\u00a0<\/p>\n Joining Arbitrum\u2019s\u00a0Discord<\/a>\u00a0could also qualify you for an airdrop.\u00a0<\/p>\n Layer-one chain SUI will airdrop tokens to users of its testnet. Users can download the SUI wallet<\/a> Google Chrome extension and fill it with SUI testnet tokens. The testnet tokens are available through SUI\u2019s\u00a0Discord server<\/a>\u00a0or from a SUI faucet on its\u00a0NFT Marketplace<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n To increase the chances of getting ZKS tokens from zero-knowledge L2 rollup\u00a0zkSync<\/a>, you need to interact with the zkSync testnet, perform some bridging activities to zkSync, interact with various decentralized applications, an NFT platform, and wallet service. You can find more\u00a0details<\/a>\u00a0in this Twitter thread.<\/p>\n Don\u2019t forget about DeFi<\/a> protocols.<\/p>\n Rage Trade, a new derivatives protocol betting on ETH prices, recently launched on Arbitrum. The protocol has not released its RAGE token yet. By depositing tricrypto liquidity into the protocol and opening a leveraged position on an ETH perpetual contract, one could become eligible for an airdrop.<\/p>\n A new borrowing and lending protocol on Ethereum called Sturdy Finance has\u00a0hinted<\/a>\u00a0at a future airdrop. To qualify, it may help to deposit some stablecoins as collateral and borrow against that.<\/p>\n Finally, the\u00a0Starknet ecosystem<\/a>\u00a0may also play host to multiple airdrops soon. Starknet is a zero-knowledge rollup on Ethereum. An automated market maker called 10KSwap, currently live on StarkNet, has\u00a0hinted<\/a>\u00a0at a possible airdrop. At the same time, a DeFi<\/a> protocol called Alpha Road Finance will airdrop ASTR tokens. One can invest, stake, and claim rewards on Alpha Road Finance to qualify.<\/p>\n For Be[In]Crypto\u2019s latest\u00a0Bitcoin<\/a>\u00a0(BTC) analysis,\u00a0click here<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n All the information contained on our website is published in good faith and for general information purposes only.
