Avial incentivized testnet airdrop guide
What is Avail ($AVAIL)?
Here is a summary of what Avail is and their main features based on the information on this page:
Avail: A fast and secure data and consensus layer that provides a foundation for building next-generation, trust-minimized applications.
Modularity: Avail supports any blockchain execution environment, allowing developers to customize, scale, and adapt their blockchains to any modular stack.
Sovereignty: Avail enables chains to become sovereign, meaning they have full control over their state and logic, and can update them without redeploying a smart contract.
Shared Security: Avail inherits the security of its base layer validator set, which uses cutting-edge math to ensure data availability and correctness.
Will there be an Avail ($AVAIL) token airdrop?
The Avail Goldberg Incentivized Testnet (also known as the Clash of Nodes) campaign has been live since November 2023. Avail will be launching its mainnet sometime this quarter. So it is likely Avail will do an airdrop soon!
How to get the Avail ($AVAIL) token airdrop?
Here’s how to get the Avail ($AVAIL) token airdrop
Connect to the Avail Goldberg testnet
Connect to https://goldberg.avail.tools/#/accounts using your Polkadot wallet such as SubWallet. If you do not have a Polkadot wallet, the page will give you a public address and a mnemonic seed phrase to create one right on the page!
Access testnet faucet

Venom Foundation have launched a $1 billion fund to invest in Web3 and blokchain firms. And is launching a layer-0 blockchain that will function as the main infrastructure for a global ecosystem of Web3 applications. According to their whitepaper, 22% of the initial token supply will be allocated to the community. This is very likely to be an airdrop to early users. Venom has launched their mainnet on 18th March 2024 and their $VENOM token will be listed on 25th March 2024! Here is our Venom token airdrop guide.
Check out our video on the latest news and predictions for the upcoming potential Venom token airdrop!

What is happening to Venom?
On 16th December 2023, Venom Foundation announced on Twitter as of 14th December 2023, they will no longer continue operating in ADGM (Abu Dhabi Global Market). Therefore, Venom Foundation will begin the dissolution process. They have however, mentioned that they are open to exploring future opportunities within ADGM. However, it does mean that it is unlikely there will be a Venom airdrop in the foreseeable future.
Step-by-Step Venom Testnet Guide
What is Venom Foundation?
Venom Foundation is a new layer-0 blockchain that envisions a global economy built on decentralized, blockchain-based, financial systems. They are a new player in the financial application-specific blockchain (appchain) space, offering real-world assets (RWA) with the transparency of a blockchain. They are fully regulated by financial authorities in Abu Dhabi.
The architecture of Venom Foundation is essentially a modular blockchain that is built on its own Threaded Virtual Machine (TVM). This allows for the efficient execution of smart contracts through an asynchronous communication model as well as dynamic sharding.
In theory, the Venom blockchain can handle interactions between accounts more effectively than EVM-based networks, allowing for greater parallelism and reduced delays. As the network experiences heavy loads, validators divide into parallel groups and handle transactions through “split events.” As such, their mission is to be the infrastructure for the next generation of digital services and products.
Does Venom Foundation have a Token?
$VENOM, the native currency of the Venom blockchain, serves multiple purposes. It is used to pay transaction fees, which helps maintain the network and compensate validators. Additionally, it secures the network through a proof-of-stake mechanism and allows network participants to support validators via DePools staking.
According to their whitepaper, the $VENOM token has no fixed maximum supply. It has an inflationary model, with a projected annual inflation rate of 1%. However, the Venom Foundation is exploring ways to transition to a deflationary model. It is worth noting that 22.0% of the tokens will be allocated towards the community, and 10% will be unlocked at TGE.
Venom have confirmed their $VENOM token will be listed on 25th March 2024 on Bybit, OKX, MEXC, gate.io, Poloniex and Web3.world.

Airdrop Review
When reviewing an airdrop, there are several factors to consider. First, the likelihood the project will even do an airdrop in the first place. Then, to look at how many tokens the project intends to allocate towards airdrop campaigns, as well as the difficulty in participating in their airdrop. It is also important to look at the utility of the token so that there will be an actual use and purpose in participating in the airdrop in the first place. Finally, a factor to consider when reviewing an airdrop is whether the airdropped tokens are subject to any lockup period.
Likelihood of Airdrop: Based on recent events, Venom Foundation is unlikely to do an airdrop.
Airdropped Token Allocation: 22% of the initial token supply will be allocated to the community. However, it is unlikely that Venom would do an airdrop.
Airdrop Difficulty: The Venom Testnet page is very UI-friendly. It shows you the tasks you can complete for each DApp!
Token Utility: $VENOM will be used to pay for transaction fees to maintain the network by validators, secure the network through proof-of-stake mechanisms, and support validators by network participants through DePools staking.
Token Lockup: Of the initial supply of 7.2 billion $VENOM, 15.5% will be available to use, while 84.5% will remained locked. The locked tokens include 10% of the initial supply as a stake of early validators. However, it is unlikely that Venom would do an airdrop.
Dymension ($DYM) comprises a network of swiftly deployable and high-speed modular blockchains known as RollApps. The projects have just finished their airdrop, and those who had just staked 1 Celestia ($TIA) tokens were able to get thousands of Dymension ($DYM) tokens! However, even if you did not manage to get the Dymension ($DYM) token airdrop, it is still worth getting some tokens so you can stake it. This is to position yourself for more airdrops in the future just like Celestia! Here is our Dymension ($DYM) token staking guide for MORE airdrops!
Check out our Dymension ($DYM) Token Staking Guide!

And check out our other video on other airdrop rewards offered to Dymension ($DYM) stakers HERE.
What is Dymension ($DYM)?
Dymension is a groundbreaking blockchain network characterized by its modular blockchains known as RollApps. These RollApps serve as the front-end, offering users a platform for diverse applications such as games, decentralized finance (DeFi), and NFTs. Central to its operation is the Dymension Hub, akin to a back-end server, which orchestrates network activities, manages requests from RollApps, and ensures cohesive functionality within the ecosystem. In its architecture, Dymension incorporates Data Availability Networks via Celestia, paralleling the role of databases in traditional web setups. These networks provide temporary data storage, enhancing efficiency and adaptability. Complementing this structure is the Dymension RollApp Development Kit (RDK), based on the Cosmos SDK. This kit facilitates the creation of RollApps, offering essential tools and pre-built modules for developers to efficiently build and deploy their applications, each with distinct client and server components. Dymension distinguishes itself through its innovative consensus mechanism and interoperability features. RollApps delegate the consensus process to the Dymension Hub, which maintains network integrity and manages state root updates. This delegation enables rapid transaction processing and high transaction throughput. Furthermore, the network’s design promotes smooth interoperability within the Cosmos ecosystem through the Inter-Blockchain Communication (IBC) protocol, fostering a connected and collaborative ecosystem.
How to stake Dymension ($DYM) tokens for more airdrops
Time needed: 15 minutes.
Here’s our guide on how to stake Dymension ($DYM) tokens for more airdrops.
Get Dymension ($DYM) tokens
Claim your Dymension ($DYM) tokens. If you missed the airdrop, you can still buy Dymension ($DYM) tokens on exchanges such as Bybit.
Connect your wallet (either MetaMask, Leap, Trust or Keplr wallets) to the Dymension portal at https://portal.dymension.xyz/dymension/staking. Also follow the steps to add the Dymension network to your wallet.
Choose a validator to delegate your Dymension ($DYM) tokens
Choose a validator to delegate your Dymension tokens to. Avoid picking validators associated with centralised exchanges, those will have the exchange in its name. We suggest delegating your Dymension ($DYM) tokens to the ValiDAO validator because they announced a ValiDAO ($VDO) token airdrop to all address who delegate their $DYM with their validator!
We also suggest delegating your Dymension ($DYM) tokens to the Enigma and Frens validators. Essentially, it is a good idea to delegate your Dymension ($DYM) tokens to validators with their own DAO because they are likely to make their own DAO token and airdrop it to you as a reward.
Delegate your Dymension ($DYM) tokens
Once you have chosen your validator, click “Stake”, select the amount of $DYM you wish to stake and click “Stake”. Note that staking will lock up your tokens for 21 days. To access your staked tokens again, you will need to go through the un-staking process.
Keep track of your validators
Keep track of any announcements from the validators you have delegated your $DYM with. Follow their Twitter, Discord and Telegram pages for any announcements regarding additional airdrops.
Check if you qualify for NIM Network airdrops
NIM Network have announced that all $DYM token stakers will be eligible to claim The Nim Genesis Drop, and can claim up to 50 million $NIM (i.e. 5% of the total supply). You can check if you qualified for the $NIM airdrop by going to https://claim.nim.network/ and entering your Dymension wallet address. If you do qualify, the $NIM tokens will automatically be airdropped to your Dymension wallet at TGE.
Stay up to date on the potential Aigisos ($AIG) airdrop
Aigisos ($AIG) is a RollApp focusing on security, and have been selected by Microsoft for Startups. The team have confirmed that 12% of the $AIG supply will be airdropped to $DYM token stakers as Genesis RollDrop. The $AIG tokens will be distributed during the mining of the Aigisos genesis block, which is expected to be in H1 of 2024. No further details have been released yet. So, follow Aigisos on Twitter to make sure you have the latest airdrop news.
Complete Rivals Network ($RIZ) Galxe tasks
Rivals Network ($RIZ) is an AI-driven Data Provenance DePIN RollApp built on Dymension and powered by Celestia. The team have already confirmed they will have a $RIZ token and are likely to do a token airdrop. This is because Rivals Network ($RIZ) has a Galxe page where you can complete various social tasks to mint an OAT.
Check eligibility for Dogmond ($DGM) airdrop
Dogmond ($DGM) is a memecoin similar to ChihuahuaChain ($HUAHUA). However, instead of being built on a blockchain, Dogmond will be built on a RollApp powered by Dymension. Dogmond have confirmed that 40% of their token supply will be allocated to $DYM stakers as a reward for their contribution towards network security and engagement. You can check your eligibility by pasting your wallet address HERE.
Frequently asked questions (FAQs)
Which Dymension Validator to pick for MORE AIRDROPS?
We suggest the ValiDAO validator because they announced a ValiDAO ($VDO) token airdrop to all address who delegate their $DYM with their validator.
How to find the best Dymension Validator to get more airdrops?
The best Dymension validators are those with their own DAO. This is because they are likely to make their own DAO token and airdrop it to you as a reward. We suggest you follow their social media channels closely to get the latest news on any airdrop announcements.
How many Dymension ($DYM) tokens do you need to stake for airdrops?
The amount of Dymension ($DYM) tokens to stake for airdrops depends on the validator. Each validator will have their own airdrop eligibility criteria.
Eigenlayer is a protocol built on Ethereum that helps people who own Ethereum to keep their money safe and earn more rewards. With EigenLayer, people can use their Ethereum to help many different services stay safe at the same time. EigenLayer have already taken the airdrop snapshot, announced the eligibility criteria and claim details. Here’s our guide explaining the eligibility criteria and how you can claim the EigenLayer token airdrop.
Eigenlayer Airdrop: Most Disappointing Airdrop SO FAR?!
EigenLayer is a protocol that introduces a new primitive in cryptoeconomic security called restaking. This primitive enables users to reuse their ETH on the consensus layer and extend cryptoeconomic security to additional applications on the network. Users who stake ETH natively or with a Liquid Staking Token (LST) can opt-in to EigenLayer smart contracts to restake their ETH or LST and earn additional rewards.
What is interesting about EigenLayer is that they have raised $50 million in Series A funding led by Blockchain Capital. Other notable investors include Finality Capital, Electric Capital, Polychain Capital, Hack VC and Coinbase Ventures. With Coinbase Ventures backing EigenLayer, there is strong speculation that their token will be listed on either Coinbase or Binance.
How to get a potential EigenLayer token airdrop if deposits are paused
To get the potential EigenLayer token airdrop, simply connect to https://app.eigenlayer.xyz/ and connect your wallet. Then, click into your preferred pool, enter the amount of tokens you wish to deposit and click “Deposit”.
However, Liquid Restaking deposits are currently paused on EigenLayer because it is full. They sometimes reopen, but when it does, it is only for a few hours at a time. So it is importantly to SUBSCRIBE to Boxmining+ because we will be the first to let you know when it does!
There is an alternative solution to getting the potential EigenLayer token airdrop if liquid restaking deposits are full. However, there is a risk of using Ether.fi as a backdoor to getting into the EigenLayer token airdrop. This is because EigenLayer has not officially supported this as an alternative to getting the EigenLayer token airdrop.
Here’s how to get a potential EigenLayer token airdrop if EigenLayer deposits are paused:
Stake ETH: Choose the amount of ETH you wish to deposit and click “Stake”. But make sure the transaction fees are not expensive when staking. This is because they could be more than what you may potentially get from this airdrop. You will get eETH when you stake ETH on Ether.fi.
Earn rewards: You will earn the following rewards for staking on Ether.fi: APR, restaked APR, ether.fi loyalty points and Eigenlayer points.
Withdraw staked ETH: Withdraw your eETH on the “Stake” tab. Note it takes around 7 to 14 days. Or if you don’t want to wait 7 to 14 days, you can immediately swap your eETH for an alternative cryptoasset using any DEX. However, you will need to pay exchange fees for this.
How to qualify for potential Eigenlayer airdrop: Cheapest method, no Ethereum
Time needed: 1 hour
Here’s how to get a potential EigenLayer token airdrop if EigenLayer deposits are paused:
Withdraw Ethereum to Manta
Withdraw Ethereum on your centralized exchange account (e.g. Binance) to MetaMask using the Manta network. This is because it is extremely cheap to do this. For instance, Binance charged us 0.0001 ETH (around US$0.35) for this transaction, versus 0.003 ETH (around $10.48) for doing the same transaction using the Ethereum network. Note we chose the Manta network so we can get extra rewards on the Manta Renew Paradigm campaign. However, you can also use other networks such as Arbitrum, Base and Optimism.
Learn more about the Manta Renew Paradigm and our step by step guide HERE.
Join Manta’s New Paradigm
You need an invite to join Manta’s Renew Paradigm. Use the invite code HERE.
Swap ETH for STONE
You will need STONE in order to stake on Manta. To get STONE tokens, connect your wallet to https://app.aperture.finance/swap?chainId=169 and swap your ETH to STONE. Note, do not swap all your ETH as you will need some ETH to pay for upcoming transaction costs.
Stake STONE on protocols
On the staking dashboard, select your validator and stake your ETH. Make sure that you select a validator that offers Eigen Layer Points. For example Shoebill, LayerBank and ZeroLend offer LayerBank/ Shoebill/ ZeroLend rewards, Manta rewards, Stone Stake ETH rewards and Eigen Layer Points. You can choose to stake all your ETH on one or split your ETH between several protocols. We chose which protocol to supply and stake our STONE depending on the Supply APY offered. You can check the Supply APY on the protocol’s page. As at the time of writing, Shoebill offers 4.53% and ZeroLend offers 0.012% Supply APY. Whilst LayerBank offers 3.46% Supply APR.
See steps 5-6 for supplying and staking STONE on Shoebill. See steps 7-8 for supplying and staking STONE on ZeroLend. See steps 9-10 for supplying and staking STONE on LayerBank.
Note that token unstaking on Manta New Paradigm will only be enabled in May 2024.

DOT is $DED will airdrop $DED tokens to any Polkadot $DOT token holders, including $DOT held on centralized exchanges. HOWEVER, the team have warned that it does not mean that the centralized exchanges would give $DED to their users.
Therefore, you should move your Polkadot into your SubWallet to get the airdrop or buy Polkadot ($DOT) tokens from centralized exchanges such as Bybit, Binance or KuCoin exchange.
Staking $DOT tokens on Polkadot means you will be nominating a validator. However, there are requirements for becoming a nominator on Polkadot. To become a nominator on Polkadot, you will need 250 $DOT to run a nomination pool and maintain a 100% uptime.
Join a nomination pool
Alternatively, you can join a nomination pool with only 1 $DOT! To join a nomination pool, connect your wallet to https://staking.polkadot.network/?utm_source=polkadot.network#/pools, go to “All Pools” and choose a nomination pool to stake your Polkadot. However, you can only bond your $DOT tokens to one pool at a time, and it will take 28 days to unbond your tokens from the pool.
To decide which Polkadot pool to stake your $DOT, we looked at https://polkadot.subscan.io/nomination_pool. In particular, we look at the “Reward Pool” and “Members” columns. We would look for pools that have higher Reward Pool but fewer Members. However, avoid the pools with “Destroying” or “Destroyed” as its status.
Stake $DOT on Bifrost
Go to https://bifrost.app/vstaking/vDOT and stake your $DOT to earn $vDOT. Bifrost is doing a campaign right now to further incentivize $vDOT holders until 10th March 2024! Note you will need to cross in (bridge) your $DOT to the Bifrost Polkadot network.
To mint the Deadmine NFT badge, go to https://ded.games/play/dedmine and play the Deadmine game. The goal of the game is to collect all 45 badges. No gas fees are required for this, and you may get a reward if you are able to collect all the badges.
Complete Zealy quests
Go to the DOT is DED Zealy questpage and complete the tasks. Tasks include reading articles, completing social tasks and creating content. They have a reward pool of 400 $DOT up for grabs!

Injective ($INJ) is a blockchain platform that aims to create a decentralized, scalable, and interoperable financial system using the fastest blockchain and Web3 modules. Injective has been going through a huge surge of attention recently and more protocols are building on Injective. And many of these protocols are doing token airdrops to reward its users. And there is Here is our ultimate guide to the best Injective $INJ ecosystem token airdrops.
Check out our guide on how to earn insane passive income by doing token airdrops on the Injective ecosystem!
Injective is a blockchain platform that aims to create a decentralized, scalable, and interoperable financial system using the fastest blockchain and Web3 modules. Injective’s ecosystem is reshaping a broken financial system with dApps that are highly interoperable, scalable, and truly decentralized, and aims to create a financial system that is truly free and inclusive through decentralization.
Here are the best Injective ($INJ) ecosystem projects that are doing token airdrops.
Black Panther Finance ($BLACK)
Black Panther Finance is a protocol on Injective that helps users earn more from their digital assets by using smart vaults that trade for them with one click. The team have confirmed they will do an airdrop by distributing POINT tokens on the Injective mainnet. These POINT tokens will then be used to unlock rewards when their $BLACK token is launched.
Get the Black Panther Finance airdrop by delegating your $INJ tokens to the Black Panther Validator. To do this, go to the Injective Hub and connect your wallet. Locate the validator named “Black Panther | Delegate for Claimdrop”. Click on “Delegate Now” and then “Continue to Delegate”. Finally, enter around 3 INJ as the amount to stake and confirm the transaction. Note however that it does take 21 days to unstake your $INJ on Black Panther Finance.
Talis Protocol functions as an NFT marketplace for Injective NFTs. This platform allows users to buy or sell various digital collectibles.
There are 2 main strategies to potentially receive the Talis Protocol airdrop. First, stake $INJ on the Talis Protocol validator. This shows you’re actively supporting the network. Second, trade Injective NFTs on the platform. By actively using the platform, buying or selling NFTs, you demonstrate your involvement and could potentially be rewarded with an airdrop.
DojoSwap ($DOJO)
DojoSwap is a decentralized finance platform on Injective that allows users to provide liquidity, stake INJ tokens, and farm rewards. The $DOJO token is the native token of DojoSwap, which gives users governance power, rewards, staking opportunities, and fee reduction benefits.
To get the DojoSwap airdrop, users need to set up a web3 wallet, buy INJ tokens, transfer them to the wallet, connect it to DojoSwap, stake INJ tokens, and farm rewards by staking the liquidity pool tokens on DojoSwap. This will generate $POINTs that can be redeemed for $DOJO tokens, as well as trading fees from the liquidity pool pair.
Hydro Protocol ($HDRO) is the first and only native liquid staking protocol on the Injective Network. The $HDRO token airdrop has three phases, and the last one is currently live until 31st January 2024. To get the airdrop, users need to stake their testnet $INJ tokens with Hydro Protocol and receive hINJ tokens, which can be used across other DeFi protocols and earn staking rewards. Users also need to participate in various features of the platform, such as yield farming, auto-compounding, liquidity pools, governance, and swapping. The airdrop amount will depend on the timing and amount of staking.
How to get a potential Injective ($INJ) ecosystem token airdrop
There are 3 main ways to get a potential Injective ($INJ) ecosystem token airdrop: Staking on validators, mainnet interactions and testnet interactions. Of these 3 methods, staking on validators will form the bulk of the airdrop tasks.
Note you will need Injective $INJ tokens for staking on validators or for mainnet interactions. You can buy Injective $INJ tokens on centralized exchanges such as Bybit. Sign up for a Bybit account here!

DojoSwap is a decentralized finance platform on Injective. To participate in the DojoSwap airdrop, users need to set up a web3 wallet. Then, buy INJ tokens, transfer them to your wallet, connect it to DojoSwap. There, stake your INJ tokens, and farm rewards by staking the liquidity pool tokens on DojoSwap. This will generate $POINTs that can be redeemed for $DOJO tokens, as well as trading fees.
Testnet interactions
Testnet interactions are a good way to participate in the Injective ecosystem airdrop if you do not have any $INJ tokens or do not want to spend any money. So this will be a literal free airdrop! Here are some of the best protocols on the injective ecosystem that have incentivized testnet campaigns:
Ninja Blaze
Aeroscraper
Hydro Protocol
Before doing any testnet interactions however, you will need to get some testnet $INJ tokens. To get testnet $INJ tokens, connect your wallet to https://inj-testnet.nept.finance/ and go to the “Faucet” tab. Enter your Injective address and click “Submit”. You will receive your testnet $INJ after a few minutes.
Ninja Blaze is a game in the Injective ecosystem. To participate, connect your wallet to https://testnet.blaze.ninja/ and create a free account. Then, go to the Ninja Blaze Galxe page and complete the missions to claim their $SHU tokens. Afterwards, you can play the games on Ninja Blaze. Currently they have 2 games available: Jackpot and Roshambo. Mint the Ninja Blaze NFTs or buy them at Talis Protocol.
Aeroscraper is a decentralized lending and borrowing protocol. To interact with Aeroscraper, go to https://www.aeroscrapertest.tech and click “Launch app”. Select Injective as your chain and connect your wallet. On the “Trove” tab, deposit some testnet $INJ as collateral to borrow $AUSD. Then, deposit the $AUSD into the Stability Pool to earn rewards.
Hydro Protocol ($HDRO) is the first and only native liquid staking protocol on the Injective Network. To receive the airdrop, users must stake their testnet $INJ tokens with Hydro Protocol and try the platform’s various features.
Injective ecosystem airdrop review
When reviewing an airdrop, there are several factors to consider. First, the likelihood the project will even do an airdrop in the first place. Then, to look at how many tokens the project intends to allocate towards airdrop campaigns, as well as the difficulty in participating in their airdrop. It is also important to look at the utility of the token so that there will be an actual use and purpose in participating in the airdrop in the first place. Finally, a factor to consider when reviewing an airdrop is whether the airdropped tokens are subject to any lockup period.
Likelihood of airdrop: There are numerous protocols in the Injective ecosystem with new ones being added all the time. So there is always an ongoing airdrop!
Airdropped token allocation: The Injective ecosystem airdrop allocation depends on the protocol.
Airdrop difficulty: As there are multiple Injective ecosystem projects doing airdrops, the difficulty can vary. The most difficult would be staking on validators, but it could be as easy as playing games on the testnet.
Token utility: The Injective $INJ token is used to govern key components of the Injective Chain including the futures protocol (such as new listings), exchange parameters, and protocol upgrades. The INJ token is used for governance and also distributed as rewards for those who build and help develop dapps in the Injective ecosystem.
Token lockup: The Injective ecosystem airdropped token lockup depends on the protocol.

Highly Scalable, Interoperable and Secure with premier UX, high TPS and low Transaction Fees: Elys Network claims to have a high-performance, user-friendly, and secure blockchain network that can handle a large number of transactions per second (TPS) and interoperate with other blockchains, while charging low fees for the users.
Built in the Cosmos ecosystem: Elys Network is a part of the Cosmos network, which is a decentralized network of independent blockchains that can communicate with each other using a standard protocol called Inter-Blockchain Communication (IBC).
What is the Elys Network ($ELYS, $EDEN) tokens?
Elys Network will have 4 tokens in its ecosystem, ELYS, ELYS-LP, EDEN and EDEN-Boost. Here are some of the features of the Elys Network tokens:
Here is a summary of the tokens and their uses based on the information on this page:
ELYS: The staking & governance token of ELYS Network. It has a low supply and rewards users who deploy it with inflationary and non-inflationary rewards. It may become deflationary over time as the ecosystem grows and burns ELYS.
ELYS-LP: The liquidity provider tokens that can be either Pool Tokens or Molecule Tokens. Pool Tokens are assigned to a specific AMM pool, while Molecule Tokens are assigned to a multi-asset index within a sector. Both types of tokens allow users to provide liquidity and earn rewards.
EDEN: The vesting ‘inflationary reward’ token that is earned by both stakers & liquidity providers. EDEN can be ‘committed’ to earn extra rewards and participate in governance.
EDEN-Boost: The multiplier token that is earned while ELYS is ‘staked’ or EDEN is ‘committed’. Its purpose is to reward long-term users and increase their rewards.
What is the Elys Network Odyssey incentivized testnet?
The Elys Network Odyssey incentivized testnet is a public testnet by Elys Network that is currently live. It is structured into 9 phases. We are currently in phase 3 and phase 4 is set to start in the week of 31st March 2024. This incentivized testnet aims to engage participants to complete various tasks such as swapping tokens, staking, and delegating to validators on the Elys Network platform. Participants will have the opportunity to earn testnet tokens and potentially collect NFT rewards for completing tasks in each phase. Once you have collected at least 5 NFTs, you can combine them into a gold NFT. This may be key to a potential airdrop at the end of the Elys Network Odyssey.
Here are the answers to the Elys Network Zealy quizzes: A (Yes), B (proof of stake), A (validators), B (Voting), C (none of the above), C (Osmosis), A (Neutron), C (Stride), B (Stargaze), C (Akash), B (Mars), C (Elys Network), A (Yes), A (Inter-Blockchain Communication), B (February 18, 2021), B (Bridge assets), A (Using a smart-contract), A (Using a smart-contract), A (Yes), A (ELYS), B (EDEN), C (Reward and vesting token), B (No), B (A basket of assets), A (65% of non-inflationary revenue from the assets in the specific Molecule, paid in USDC + EDEN), A (Perpdex), A (LP leveraging), A (Yes), A (Yes).
Fill in some information about yourself and your motivations to become a Cadet. Then, in a few sentences explain: (1) What type of project Elys Network is? (Blockchain? Application? Both?); (2) What is the native token and its role?; (3) What is the purpose of IBC?
Sign up at Elys Network testnet and claim tokens.
Sign up for the Elys Network testnet with your email or wallet at https://testnet.elys.network/. Click “Deposit” and “Claim testnet tokens” to claim 1 testnet $ELYS and 2 testnet $USDC tokens. You can repeat this claim every 24 hours.
Swap $ELYS for $USDC or $ATOM
Go to the “Swap” tab and swap $ELYS for $USDC or $ATOM. Make sure to save some $ELYS for gas fees. Note if it still does not work even after a few hours you can let the team know on their Discord channel. Do one of these transactions every day to maintain your streak.
Stake $ELYS on ELYS Staking
Go to the “Earn” tab and click “Simple staking”. Go for the ELYS Staking option by clicking “Manage”. Choose a validator you want to delegate your $ELYS tokens to. We chose the High Stakes validator because to our understanding, they have an incentive program where if you delegate any Cosmos IBC tokens to them they would give you extra yields. Note it may take 30 minutes for the transaction to be processed. Staking $ELYS on ELYS Staking gives you $EDEN and EDEN BOOST rewards.
Stake USDC on USDC earn
On the staking page, click “Manage” under the USDC Earn pool. Select the amount of USDC you wish to stake and click “Stake USDC”. You will earn rewards in $EDEN for this.
Stake $EDEN on Commitment
On the staking page, click “Manage” under the Commitment staking pool. Stake your $EDEN and multiply with EDEN BOOST for even more rewards.
Check your progress on Elys Bonusblock
Connect your wallet to https://elys.bonusblock.io?r=G9quTM2k and check your task progress. Note that some tasks may take a while to process so you may not see the check mark immediately.

Then, to look at how many tokens the project intends to allocate towards airdrop campaigns, as well as the difficulty in participating in their airdrop. It is also important to look at the utility of the token so that there will be an actual use and purpose in participating in the airdrop in the first place. Finally, a factor to consider when reviewing an airdrop is whether the airdropped tokens are subject to any lockup period.
Likelihood of airdrop: Elys Network have confirmed they will an incentivized testnet.
Airdropped token allocation: The Elys Network airdrop allocation is unknown.
Airdrop difficulty: The Elys Network incentivized testnet has not even been launched yet, so all you need to do is to sign up for the waitlist. However, they have Zealy quests to complete, and their quizzes require you to wait 1 hour to try again if you get the answer wrong. This makes Elys Network one of the most time-consuming and hardest airdrop tasks we have done.
Token utility: The $ELYS and $EDEN token utility is unknown.
Token lockup: There is no information on the $ELYS and $EDEN token lockup yet.

What is the Self Chain ($SELF) token?
The $SELF token is the native token of Self Chain, and has the following uses:
Transaction Submission: Users and dApps use $SELF tokens to submit transactions for creating, mutating, and transferring digital assets or interacting with applications.
Staking & Governance: $SELF token holders can stake their tokens to validators and participate in Self Chain’s proof-of-stake mechanism and governance.
Validator Incentives: Validators manage transaction processing and are incentivized through the proof-of-stake mechanism, which rewards honest behavior.
Network Fees: Gas fees, paid in $SELF tokens, are charged for network operations to reward participants and protect against spam and attacks.
According to Self Chain’s tokenomics, 19% of its total token supply are allocated towards ecosystem initiatives via grants and incentives. This could mean a token airdrop for supporters.
