The crypto market is trying to recover, with Bitcoin (BTC) approaching a $90,000 milestone. Amidst the improved emotional state, several startups are launching attractive airdrops, offering crypto enthusiasts the opportunity to engage in a budding platform without first financial input.
This week we will discuss the opportunities for AirDrop to participate from three projects and financial support from well-known investors.
Optimism
Layer-2 blockchain optimism is one of the top three crypto aviation drops of the week. The optimistic crypto airdrop comes after the network raises $267.5 million from major investors such as Andreessen Horowitz, Coinbase Ventures, Paradigm and Ideo Colab Ventures.
Airdrop is about the Superstacks campaign, which will open on April 16th and will remain until June 30th.
“As many chains are built into one, new network structures are emerging to resolve fragmentation in Ethereum. This network is modular, interoperable and configurable by default. We call it a super chain.
Rewards are awarded in the form of points for dialogue with the project. Airdrop Farmers will be rewarded by providing liquidity to the superchain and combining scalable blockchains into a single ecosystem to resolve Ethereum fragmentation.
The actual task results in 10 exp (experience points) per dollar of daily liquidity. In the past, optimism has held five airdrops and has given over 265 million tokens.
“You may be eligible for a sixth airdrop without realizing it. The system collects badges when performing optimistic operations. However, it is possible that you have opened many badges to count previous operations when you log in.”
This means that even minimal effort can lead to rewards. However, participating in an optimistic airdrop does not guarantee future rewards. Instead, it simply offers you the opportunity to earn points.
Aztec
Another top crypto airdrop to watch this week is the Aztec, bringing a privacy-focused Layer 2 Zero Knowledge (ZK) rollup at Ethereum.
Aztec receives $119.1 million in funding from investors Andreessen Horowitz (A16Z), Paradigm, Consensy, Coinbase Venture, etc..
The project has attracted a lot of attention following the retrospective airdrop confirmation for native Aztec tokens and early users.
On April 17th, the network announced its AZTEC sequencer form and front-running the public testnet. Interested participants were asked to fill out the form for early access to the testnet.
Historically, blockchain projects reward testnet participants with tokens. Based on this, Aztec's funds and investor support increase the chances of airdrops.
Fuma Finance
This week, the watchlist also includes Huma Finance, the first PayFi network built on Solana. The project focuses on transforming global payment settlements using blockchain technology.
Huma Finance has launched a second version of Point Farming, available only on the Solana Network. Participants can deposit USDC tokens to earn wings (points). In particular, KYC is not required in this version. There are even more pools available.
Recently, the project announced social and deposit quests on Galxe, allowing users to complete these quests and try to gain a $2,000 share. In particular, participants must have at least LVL 2 on their Web3 passport.
“Huma 2.0 is the next wave! Now anyone can get real yields and stack rewards only with Solana. The new quest is live on Galxe Quest. You can join PayFiMoves and get the chance to grab a share of $2000 USDC,” the network shared.
The project also launched a Points Agriculture Program, where participants can deposit USDC tokens in one of the pools. For this activity, the user must pass KYC.
Meanwhile, Huma Finance boasts up to $46.3 million in funding raised from supporters such as Hashkey Capital, Circle, Parafi Capital and Distributed Global.
