The Biggest Airdrop Opportunities Nobody's Talking About

[00:02] airdrop season we have ever seen in the history of crypto with many of the launching their own token. So, in today's video, we're going to be covering the top five airdrop narratives I'm farming to set myself up for next

[00:15] year. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to another CryptoGorilla video. As usual, I am not a financial adviser. I have zero control over these airdrops or the performance of the tokens. Every platform we discussed today has trading

[00:27] fees and requires you to trade. So, there is a risk involved. So, you need to make sure you're doing your own research before blindly jumping in. Now, content, make sure you hit that subscribe button as I have a bunch of

[00:39] airdrop videos coming out in the near future. And with that, let's get right into the video. So, the first category of airdrops that we're going to cover are wallets. Because no matter the airdrop you're farming on today's list,

[00:51] you need a decentralized wallet. So why not use one that is going to reward you for your efforts? Now the major wallets that exist are MetaMask, Phantom, Rabbi, and Rainbow. Rainbow currently has a token raise, so it feels like their

[01:05] token is very near and it's just not worth farming in my opinion. Rabby does have a points program as you can see here. It is currently closed. If I click download the mobile app where I'm not even able to claim the points. So it

[01:19] personally Rabi is my favorite wallet. It is my go-to. But the main wallet that I'm going to be farming for the airdrop is going to be MetaMask. Now, we've been waiting for a MetaMask token airdrop since 2021. They have finally confirmed

[01:34] not only a token, but we have team members talking about an airdrop. So, it's confirmed. There is going to be an airdrop. They are currently running a rewards campaign. And the rewards campaign is entirely separate from the

[01:47] airdrop campaign. I think people get really hung up on this. I see a ton of comments like, "We're being farmed." People do not like rewards campaigns pre-airdrop. Post airdrop, they're fine with them because they realize what they

[01:59] are, additional rewards that benefit existing users. But if you're just farming an airdrop, it feels like you're being farmed because you're spending money on fees trying to artificially complete levels. Now, I have a full

[02:11] video tutorial on the MetaMask airdrop/rewards program, so I'll link that down below. But for MetaMask and any of the tools on this platform, do not blindly farm burning fees in the hope that this company is going to give

[02:25] hope that this company is going to give you, you know, 2, three, 10x return on the fees you spent. That makes no sense. You need to be strategically using these tools organically with the intention of getting an airdrop, but you don't want

[02:38] it comes to MetaMask, they obviously want you to use their native features want you to use their native features like inwallet swaps, bridging, per prediction markets. So, they want you to do it inside of the wallet. However,

[02:52] they have very high fees compared to elsewhere. So, you need to keep that in mind. However, if you want the airdrop, you most likely have to do some of that stuff as simply connecting to a website and using the wallet to sign is just not

[03:04] money off of that. So, they're going to want to reward the people who are getting them rich, which are people actually using these swap and bridging functions. Now, as for a timeline, they have not said anything. If we look on

[03:18] Poly Market, which is a great indicator as people are putting money down, trying to really figure out when it's going to be. It's not a guarantee, right? You're just playing the odds. We can see here 57% think it's going to be in either Q1

[03:31] or Q2. So, before the end of June. And I really think most projects are going to aim for this time around Q2 as a lot of people are speculating that this is going to be the top of the market. Now, as for FDV, people are hoping for around

[03:46] 72% do think the token is going to be worth over 1 billion FDV 24 hours after launch. So again, even though my main go-to wallet is Rabby, I'm making sure to do certain things with MetaMask just so I can tick that box. The second

[04:01] category on today's list is going to be perp dexes. Now, this one started off with Hyperlid. This was one of the most successful airdrops in the history of airdrops. It started at $3. It ran all the way to 55, currently sitting just

[04:15] under $30. But not only were people air dropped five, six, seven figures. If they held, they got a 10 to 20x on their initial airdrop. Now, on top of that, hypers if they selected that option, which at one point were worth like

[04:31] $50,000. Now, they're down pretty bad. But still, even if you held till today, an additional 14,000 is really dope. Now, there is a season 2 and people are speculating season 3 as the points reset. And Hyperlid is definitely one of

[04:44] my top airdrops to farm. I am actively using both the per decks as well as their chain Hyper EVM. I have a full tutorial on how to use both. I will link down below. But when it comes to per DEXes on top of Hyperlid, which to this

[04:58] day gets the most volume, we have a ton of options to pick from. Now, in second place, we have Aster. Their token is currently live, currently sitting at 2.2 billion, and they are doing multiple seasons of airdrops. I believe they've

[05:12] third epoch or whatever they're calling it, which I do feel Astra is a good the token. you could see how stable it is and you know you could plan ahead for how big your airdrop is going to be. But if we go a little further down the list,

[05:27] I think the two main players here are Lighter and Edex. You could see that they are getting an insane amount of volume. They are bringing in a ton in sword. It means people really like the platform and their tokens have good odds

[05:42] of performing well, but it also means the points are kind of diluted because so many people are fighting for that airdrop. So honestly, you could pick a lot on this list. A lot of people are farming Paradex and Pacifica and Avantis

[05:55] and all these perp dexes that we're seeing come out pretty much every single week. Personally, I'm doing Edge X, which I have a full tutorial for. We'll link that down below, as well as links to all of these different deckes,

[06:07] you use my links. But personally, I would only trade PERPS, first of all, if liquidated trading per trying to chase an airdrop. But if you're good at this stuff or if you understand how to set up a delta neutral strategy, you could use

[06:22] two different per platforms. Long on one, short on the other and make sure you always break even. Now, another thing you can do is hit like two birds with one stone because we do have an upcoming I mean it's vouchers, but let's

[06:35] just call it an airdrop even though it's a token voucher. We do have the crates for Infinex and Infinex also has per which currently use Hyperlid. However, incorporating other platforms. So, you could farm the Infinex vouchers as well

[06:51] as the reward program. They have seven figures in rewards that they're giving away while you're farming Hyperlid trading per. Now, I will have a full tutorial next Monday for Infinex. So, make sure you hit the subscribe button,

[07:05] turn on those bell notifications so you do not miss that upload because their rewards program started 2 weeks ago. So, you still have a ton of time to farm better to start sooner than later. Now, looking at the Edge X token as well as

[07:19] Lighter, you could see here that 79% of people expect it to trade over 1 billion FDV, which in my video, I forget where I put this, I think it was over $35 per

[07:31] point based on what percentage of the supply they give away. And I know for lighter at one point, points were trading for like $200 per point, something crazy. But here we have 66% of people think it'll be greater than 1

[07:43] billion FTV after one day. So really interesting to see the two, especially that lighter does get more volume, but I do feel both of these are viable options for a perp dex airdrop farm. Now speaking of Poly Market, we keep

[07:57] bringing it up. They actually recently confirmed they will also have a token and currently this is the biggest narrative in web 3, just prediction markets in general. Poly market and Koshi as you see are dominating

[08:10] mindshare and mindshare is actually a really great way to see what airdrop MetaMask, we have base, we have OpenC, we have Mega ETH. All of these are on today's list, but prediction markets

[08:22] have been all over the timeline. And with an upcoming token as well as an IPO because Poly Market is going to IPO, so they're going to be a publicly traded company on the US stock market. I really

[08:34] see this token performing well. So this is one that I am actively farming. I'm markets interest me. Again, I have a full tutorial. I will link it down believe. So, it's performing really well. But this is an airdrop that I

[08:48] think can perform incredibly well if they are generous with the allocation for their community. Now, farming it again, do not lose money just blindly betting on stuff. I would try to make proper trades with the goal of being a

[09:03] profitable trader first and farming the airdrop as a bonus. So here you're going to want to look for, you know, number of trades, holding until completion, unless the trade makes sense, of course, take it. Uh trading volume, the typical

[09:16] things you try to do on different platforms. And again, trying to hit two birds with one stone. We have Poly Market finally added inside of MetaMask Mobile. So ideally here, you're earning points for Poly Market as well as the

[09:31] MetaMask airdrop. Continuing down the platform meta, our fourth category, it's really based on the niche that you like to trade. It's going to be NFTs and memecoins. Now, on the NFT side, we have the number one exchange by far, OpenC,

[09:47] which I'm an ambassador for, just for full disclosure, as OpenC Foundation is going to be launching a token in Q1 of 2026, so within the next couple of months. And they are giving away 50% of their supply to their community. So this

[10:01] is a massive opportunity in my opinion. And turning to Poly Market, we have 83% that it's going to trade over 500 million and 69% over 1 billion one day after launch. So that would be anywhere from 250 million to half a billion

[10:16] dollars airdropped to their community. Now, similar to MetaMask, on top of an airdrop, they currently have a rewards program that has been live for three seasons. The third season is about to end in 3 days. However, there are going

[10:31] to be more seasons after this. But just like MetaMask, this is a bonus for real users, right? Think of it like an Air Miles program. If you fly 50 times a month, you are getting points from Air Miles. You're getting free flights, but

[10:45] you don't expect them to give you more money than you're actually paying for flights, right? It's just a bonus that hopefully ends up reducing your cost, especially if you're a profitable trader. The prizes you get at the end of

[10:57] the season are just free money. And then on top of it, you are getting these treasures which they've already said are going to matter for the airdrop. But in my opinion, people are really undervaluing these. So that's on the NFT

[11:10] side. On the memecoin side, we of course have the biggest memecoin platform, which is Pump Fun. Now, for Pump Fun, we have no idea when the airdrop is going to be, unlike OpenC Foundation, who have given an estimate of a date, Q1.

[11:23] don't know how you can ignore this platform. 24% is going to the community with 3% of that to streamers. So at current value of 2.8 billion since their token is already out, that's close to $700,000

[11:38] in community rewards and airdrops with something like 80 million going to streamers. Now the bonus on top of this is a lot of people are trading with tools like Bolex, Photon, Axiom, which some of those will hopefully have

[11:51] tokens. I think Bolex and Photon they realize like why would we do a token, million dollars each. So they are probably retired on an island. No point in getting the headache of a token unless you know they they feel they can

[12:05] uh get another hundred million from the market. But hopefully if one of these platforms or many of them do an airdrop, we get a double airdrop. So you get the pump on airdrop and then you get one for using Photon or Axiom or Shuriken or

[12:19] Blex or Padre or Viper, whichever tool you use. And then last but not least, probably our most bullish category is going to be chains. Now, there are multiple chains that people are farming. We just had the Monad Airrop, which I

[12:34] about, but I did see people get four to five figures air dropped for having Discord rolls and stuff like that. So, in my opinion, that was a successful airdrop. However, the three main chains people are talking about are Abstract,

[12:47] Mega ETH, and Bass. Now, Abstract, I've farmed my fair share. I do feel right now momentum is against them. Not that they can't turn it around, but Luca has said they will not launch until they are a top two chain, and they have just been

[13:01] going down. The last time I covered them, I believe they were in 11th place. Currently, they are in 14th place in terms of L2s. So, I have no idea when to all going to try to launch around the same time, or not mega, but base and uh

[13:18] abstract around Q2 of 2026. But, I've Abstract just because all the meme coins were just pump and dumps. NFTTS really aren't doing much, and the apps on there feel like games you have to pay for or

[13:31] just straight gambling, which I'm not interested uh in doing unless it's fun, which it wasn't that fun getting wrecked at Moonsheep. So, I'm gold on my way to platinum, but the one I'm really going to focus on is Mega ETH because they are

[13:44] to focus on is Mega ETH because they are giving 2.5% of their supply in rewards. So, people who actually use the chain, which currently in pre-market it is trading for just under 3 billion FTV, which would be $75 million in community

[13:59] rewards. And the good part here is that mainet isn't even live yet. Frontier goes live next week, but that is only for builders. I think for us it's going live in January. So the opportunities haven't even started yet. We are still

[14:13] early to Mega ETH. That's what I love about it. And then the other chain, the one that I think is going to be the biggest narrative of 2026 is going to be Bass. Now Bass is, you know, Coinbase, massive company. They have a ton of

[14:28] funding. They're a publicly traded company, but they are also wellconed in the government. I think they are perfectly positioned and it's one of the biggest opportunities in my opinion. So, they've straight up said if you want to

[14:41] get access to their token, which they've already confirmed there will be a token, you need to create, build, and trade. Now, they do have their very own app called the base app, which right now is closed off. You need an invite code.

[14:54] However, they have an event coming up on December 17th. So, I think either the 17th or the 18th, the app is just going to go live for everyone and you're going to be able to start using it. where on that app you could build mini apps. So

[15:06] it's it's an everything app. So it's like Twitter meets a trading deck. So you can post so create and you can also trade tokens. Now we've all been using base for a very long time, right? We've traded NFTs on OpenC. We've been using

[15:21] different apps like uh Fantasy Top or uh Football.fun or whatever app virtuals different apps we've been using. So, we all should have exposure to base, but I

[15:34] am just going to make sure I am doing as much as I can. I am building, I am creating, I am trading tokens. I recently made a a tutorial for Zora. I will have a tutorial once it goes public for everybody. I've been waiting cuz

[15:46] it's kind of boring if I make a tutorial and none of you can actually access it. But, I will have a tutorial for base app probably dropping next week on the 17th or 18th. So, make sure you subscribe so you do not miss that. But I've also been

[15:59] cover all of the apps across these chains, which ones have airdrop opportunities for themselves, your path to an airdrop on that chain. So, I'll put the Twitter link for Waypoint in the description down below. If you can

[16:13] then once it goes live, you'll have access to all this stuff. We have a ton of cool features that are planned. So, I'm very excited for this to be with Mega E and Bass. So, if you're looking for things to do on either of

[16:26] those apps, check it out. But that does it for today's video. I hope you enjoyed it. Referral links for everything that I spoke about in the description down those referral fees. Thank you for watching another Cryptogorilla video.
