*It is Important to read through the docs of every Airdrop Protocol’s website to get familiar with their approach = This usually supplies a step by step guide on the possible interactions and therefore the probable pathways to take in order to become eligible to receive a token allocation

The following guidelines for future airdrops will be based on the qualifying actions that preceded one of the most recent notable Airdrops — Arbitrum — as follows —

Qualifying actions:

Converting Points to tokens:

  1. Bridged funds into Arbitrum One
  2. Conducted transactions during two distinct months
  3. Conducted transactions during six distinct months
  4. Conducted transactions during nine months
  5. Conducted more than four transactions or interacted with more than four different smart contracts
  6. Conducted more than ten transactions or interacted with more than ten different smart contracts
  7. Conducted more than 25 transactions or interacted with more than 25 different smart contracts
  8. Conducted more than 100 transactions or interacted with more than 100 different smart contracts
  9. Conducted transactions exceeding in the aggregate $10,000 in value
  10. Conducted transactions exceeding in the aggregate $50,000 in value
  11. Conducted transactions exceeding in the aggregate $250,000 in value
  12. Bridged more than $10,000 of assets into Arbitrum One
  13. Bridged more than $50,000 of assets into Arbitrum One
  14. Bridged more than $250,000 of assets into Arbitrum One

As seen in the above table, qualifying wallets with max allocation (12 points or more) would have received 10 250 ARB tokens, valued currently at 9,122.50 USD ⬇️

However, directly following the airdrop, the tokens were valued at 15,375 USD


By using the above guidelines as an indicator for upcoming Airdrops of promising protocols, we will focus on engaging heavily and increasing the point scores for each of the following networks:

*This list is in order of Expected Timeframe; the Protocols marked in Orange are still in Testnet phase, which means possible interactions are limited and the interactions are only possible with Testnet funds (free of any capital requirement, but highly time intensive and technical)

** Expected Values and Time Frames are strictly hypothetical and based only on Airdrop allocation as specified in the Network documentation and number of eligible participants. Each protocol may set a time for their airdrop based on Market Factors and Social Engagement
