9 Actionable Steps You can take to be early with any airdrop (from someone that has gotten 9+ airdrops over the last 4y)

Hey,

I've gotten good at using protocols early and benefiting from airdrops. I don't really airdrop farm, I just use the platforms and because i don't want to have all of my funds on one wallet i split it among a few. This also has the benefit that i sometimes get airdrops on multiple wallets.

I've gotten over $100k just in airdrops alone

Some of the airdrops I've received include Uni, 1inch, bank (bankless), DYDX, OP, ARB, Blur, Wormhole, Lobsterdao and a few others that I can't remember.

Before we start be careful of fake airdrop links on twitter. Most platforms that market their platform with an airdrop will most likely be shit.

1. Search for ecosystem projects with a high of VC funding. They are most likely to reward early users, as they want to attract people to their ecosystem or dapp. You can find such projects on chainbroker.

2. Identify projects with a surge in crypto Twitter followers in the last 7-30 days. Check if they have a token. If not, explore actionable steps below. X twitter follower checker

3. Join the discord/telegram and participate in the conversation (write at least 5 messages every few months

4. Use the test net do swaps and create contracts

5. Become a validator if you have the skill level

6. Take part in content competitions (I got 20k Mina for creating content in 2021)

7. Use the DApps regularly. At least once a month: Make swaps, bridge, trade. This is important for many airdrop criteria.

8. Stake tokens: It’s harder to know which, but often projects in an ecosystem reward stakers of a similar project or in the same ecosystem. For example, DYM airdrop to TIA stakers. But do not lock tokens for a longer period of time.

9. Be patient and understand the power of delayed gratification. 99% of the people I have shared airdrop information with have never taken action. They are too lazy and are just focused on instant gratification. I typically have to wait 6+ months to over a year.

inb4 airdrops are scam. Inb4 i'm not in the us so no shitty cap gains tax. I share a lot more info and links in the newsletter version.
