1. Why should we deploy airdrops?
A bear market is not suitable for gambling in the contract market, nor is it suitable for blindly buying at the bottom. Therefore, deploying airdrops has become one of the few ways to survive in a bear market. The more bearish the market, the lower the cost and the greater the return.
For example, we deployed APT interaction in May this year and provided full hosting services to friends in a small circle. As everyone knows, in October, APT brought huge profits to many airdrop players, and one account received at least nearly 2,400 US dollars.
However, there are many projects in the current "airdrop" track, but few high-quality projects and projects that openly issue airdrops. Aptos' airdrop is not a normal event. It has the best investment institutions in the blockchain and the highest L1 track financing amount, and the most luxurious investment institutions. Not every project claiming to be web3 can get luxurious investment and issue airdrops to users like Aptos, so for retail investors, how to screen and identify high-quality potential projects is a very important point on the road to airdrops.
OCC Team Expected Airdrop Deployment Plan V1 Project Introduction
About OCC Team (OC labs x BlockchainCheese)
OCC Team is a Web3 studio jointly initiated by OC labs x BlockchainCheese, focusing on the screening and early participation of high-quality Web3 projects.
Team members have more than 5 years of experience in the field of Crypto and are familiar with Crypto1.0, DeFi, NFT, GameFi, SocialFi, Wallet and other gameplays.
In 2022, only a few projects have emerged, including the well-known StepN, Galaxy, etc. They are all web3 projects with social elements. Therefore, we believe that SocialFi will still be a hot topic in 2023.
The project deployed by the OCC Team this time is the LENS Protocol in the SocialFi track.
LENS Protocol is a typical social graph project, which aims to provide a bottom-level protocol for decentralized social networking in the future and become an important bottom-level protocol for WEB3. The solution of LENS Protocol is very interesting, which is to turn the on-chain identity, the content published on the chain, the relationship between users and the relationship between users and content into the most basic NFT.
LENS Protocol is perfectly compatible with all EVM ecosystems and provides a complete solution that has been verified in practice (mature modules, rich interfaces, and beautiful documentation). When developers use LENS Protocol to build their own products, it is like using a Lego kit with an instruction manual, which is easy and efficient.
Therefore, the development of LENS Protocol will enable WEB3 social products to grow rapidly and create momentum to impact traditional WEB2 giants.
2. In order to make it easier for users with no basic knowledge in the web3 field to get started, we have made an entry-level Lens interaction process for your reference
1. Download Google Chrome
2. Download MetaMask from Google's official online app store
3. Add horseshoe network
After downloading Little Fox, create a Matic/Polygon wallet (English name: Matic/Polygon), the chain ID of Matic is: 137
After installing the little fox, click on the avatar, find settings, select network, find the "Add network" option in "Network", select Add Polygon, fill in the horseshoe chain network information according to the example in the figure below and click Save.
If it is the first time you use Little Fox, the system will prompt you to create a password, which you can think of as a "phone screen unlock" password or a "wallet password". Its function is that all wallet addresses and transaction passwords generated by this plug-in on this server and computer are this password.
4. Create a horseshoe chain wallet account
After linking the Horseshoe Chain network, start creating an account. Click on the avatar - Create Account - Edit Account Name
0xa70953F2644EB6420896943C5305Ea2737bb6ED8 is the wallet address created in this demonstration. Each wallet address has a separate key. The key address is entered as follows:
Please note that the key is not the same as the "wallet password/screen password" mentioned in the second point.
The key is the password corresponding to this wallet and cannot be changed. With the account password, you can import and use the funds in different wallets, so you must protect the security of your personal wallet key;
The string of characters in the wallet address is similar to a bank account number;
The wallet address QR code is similar to the payment code;
The chain to which the wallet belongs is similar to different banks;
So you can simply understand that you have an account in Horseshoe Bank, so when we recharge this address, we must also choose Horseshoe Chain, otherwise the assets will be lost.
5. Top up and purchase Lens NFT
After the address is ready, we are ready to buy Lens NFT. Open the OpenSea official website with Google Chrome, log in with the Little Fox wallet, and then find the official series of Lens
We can see that the selling price units are mainly USDC/ETH/Matic, so we need to transfer some corresponding cryptocurrencies to the wallet address for payment. Special attention should be paid to the use of Polygon Horseshoe Chain for transfers. Funds on other chains such as ETH and BSC cannot be used on the Horseshoe Chain.
At the same time, you also need some Matic as the gas fee for using the blockchain network, 0.1~1 Matic is enough.
After the transfer is received, select the NFT with the lowest price, click Add to Cart, and finally click Complete Payment.
After purchasing the NFT, we will go to Lens’ official website to complete the relevant interactive work.
6. Lens official website login and project interaction
After purchasing the Lens domain name, we can start interacting. Go to the project official website and log in to the Lens official website using the wallet address with the registered Lens domain name.
If you are not a newbie to web3 like me, and you hold the Rabbit Hole credential nft, you can also get a Lens domain name (the snapshot was taken on June 8, so if you don’t have it, don’t do it for this). After successfully logging in with the wallet address, click “Check your claimable handles”.
If you are new to web3, you can start interactive tasks directly after purchasing NFT.
Fill in personal information
Follow other people’s accounts, like and repost their posts. If the other party sets Post as a free NFT, you can also collect it.
Post, of course we can also set free or paid NFT type when posting
Join a community, create a community, share to Twitter, etc.
If you have a Discord account, you can also go to the project's DC community to get an identity. Actively participating in voting on proposals can also earn some project POPA and other rewards.
If you want to create a high-quality account, you must join the project community and follow their latest tasks
In addition to Lenster, there are many other projects on Lens that are under testing. I suggest that everyone try them out and leave more interactive data.
