#AirdropStepByStep Step-by-Step Guide to Set Up a Crypto Airdrop

Step 1: Define the Airdrop Goals

Are you distributing tokens to raise awareness, reward users, or promote a new project?

Decide the total supply and the portion for airdrop.

Step 2: Choose the Blockchain

Ethereum, BNB Chain, Solana, Polygon, etc.

Make sure your token is deployed on the selected blockchain.

Step 3: Create/Deploy the Token (if not already)

Use platforms like Remix (for Ethereum-compatible tokens) or token creation tools like:

Ethereum: OpenZeppelin + Remix

Solana: SPL Token CLI

BNB Chain: Token generator tools or custom smart contracts

Step 4: Collect Recipient Wallet Addresses

Methods:

Registration forms (e.g., Google Forms, Zealy, Galxe)

Snapshot from holders or users (via tools like Snapshot.org)

Social media contests

Step 5: Use Airdrop Tools

Manual Method: Write a script or use a tool like Ethers.js, Web3.js to send tokens

Automated Platforms:

CoinTool

Gleam

Zealy.io

Galxe

Layer3

[DripDropz](for Cardano)

For Solana: use Solana CLI or platforms like Magic Eden

Step 6: Execute the Airdrop

Make sure you have enough native token (ETH, BNB, SOL, etc.) for gas fees.

Use your script or platform to send tokens to wallet addresses.

Step 7: Announce the Airdrop

Promote it on your website, Twitter/X, Discord, Telegram, etc.

Be transparent about rules, deadlines, and claim dates.

Step 8: Monitor and Support

Be available to support users if there are issues.

Track distribution and engagement.
