What is an Airdrop?
An airdrop is a method where a blockchain project distributes free tokens to users' wallets to promote adoption. Think of it as a “crypto marketing giveaway.”

Types of Airdrops:
1. Standard Airdrop – Just register and receive tokens.
2. Bounty Airdrop – Complete tasks (follow on Twitter, join Telegram, etc.)
3. Holder Airdrop – Tokens are dropped based on wallet holdings.
4. Exclusive/Invite-Only Airdrop – For selected community members or referrals.

Step-by-Step Guide to Claim Airdrops (2025 Version)
Step 1: Create a Secure Wallet
Use MetaMask, Trust Wallet, or Phantom (for Solana). Ensure your wallet is non-custodial and you hold the private keys.
Step 2: Get an Email & Social Media Ready
Many projects require tasks like:
Joining Telegram
Retweeting on X (Twitter)
Subscribing to YouTube/Discord
Create a separate crypto-dedicated email for safety.
Step 3: Find Legitimate Airdrops
Check:
Airdrops.io
CoinMarketCap Airdrops
Project’s official website or X profile
Avoid scams: Never share your private key or seed phrase!
Step 4: Perform the Tasks
Tasks may include:
Connecting wallet
Signing messages (not transactions)
Posting referral links
Be honest. Bots or fake entries often get disqualified.
Step 5: Track & Claim
Track pending rewards with tools like:
DappRadar
Zerion
Tokens may take weeks to arrive or require claiming later on-chain.
Step 6: Secure & Monitor
Use a hardware wallet if storing large value. Stay updated on project news for vesting schedules or token listing info.
