Potential Airdrop Projects to Follow in 2024

With the successful issuance of the Starknet token, many people are starting to look for the next potential project. This article will introduce several projects worth following in 2024, including some potentially anticipated airdrop projects, confirmed airdrop projects, and zero-cost interaction projects that are still in the testing phase.

Confirmed Airdrop Projects

Linea

Linea is a zk-rollup solution that allows developers to deploy smart contracts and use tools just like on Ethereum. It provides users with the experience and security guarantees of Ethereum, but with lower transaction costs. Linea has launched multiple phases of the Odyssey event and Linea Park, where users can earn LXP by completing tasks. Participation requires proof of Humanity (POH), which helps reduce the likelihood of witch attacks.

Kroma

Kroma is a general-purpose ZK Rollup based on the Optimism Bedrock architecture. It initially uses a Scroll-based zkEVM, operating as an Optimistic Rollup with ZK fault proof. Kroma's goal is to eventually transition to a ZK Rollup. The project has announced its tokenomics and plans to issue tokens in 2024, with 7% allocated to the community.

The recently concluded Odyssey event offered various ways to participate, including using the official cross-chain bridge, ecosystem cross-chain bridge, creating LP, purchasing domain names, etc. Users who missed the event can still design supplementary on-chain records based on these tasks.

Potential Projects

Scroll

Scroll is the native zkEVM Layer 2 solution for Ethereum, achieving native compatibility with existing Ethereum applications and tools. It achieves higher throughput and lower costs by processing transactions off-chain and publishing concise correctness proofs on-chain.

LayerZero

LayerZero is a cross-chain interoperability protocol designed for lightweight messaging across chains. It provides trusted and assured messaging with configurable trustless features.

zkSync

zkSync is a Layer 2 scaling solution that leverages the latest generation of succinct zero-knowledge proofs to retain the security properties of the underlying blockchain. All funds are held by smart contracts on the main chain, while computation and storage are executed off-chain. Each Rollup block generates a state transition zero-knowledge proof, which is verified by the main chain contract.

These three projects have always been regarded as top projects alongside Starknet. When participating in these projects, it is recommended to follow factors such as active duration (preferably over 3 months) and wallet balance. For multi-address users, data query tools can be used to optimize participation strategies.

Testnet Project

Berachain

Berachain is an EVM-compatible L1 based on DeFi, built on top of the Cosmos SDK, supported by liquidity consensus proof. The project is valued at $420 million, with $42 million in funding. Berachain launched the Artio public testnet in January, and the number of addresses quickly exceeded 1 million.

Ways to participate in the Berachain testnet include:

• Claim Test Coins
• Swap and provide liquidity on BEX
• Mint operation on Honey
• Lending on Bend (currently suspended)
• Conduct contract trading on BERPS
• Complete the tasks on The Honey Jar
• Create a domain name in Beranames

Fuel

Fuel is a UTXO-based modular execution layer designed to bring globally accessible scalability to Ethereum. As a modular execution layer, Fuel can increase global throughput in ways that a monolithic chain cannot, while inheriting Ethereum's security.

The steps to participate in the Fuel testnet include:

• Create Fuel Wallet
• Claim test coins
• Use swayswap
• Create Domain Name

These projects all showcase unique technological features and development potential, worthy of close attention. When participating in these projects, it is advisable to operate with caution and continuously follow the latest developments and community updates.
