If anyone staked 10 sol before snapshot date (nov 25), you would have received about 5k jito, worth about $10k at current price.

You can find more tokenless protocols here: https://defillama.com/airdrops?chain=Solana

Yeah I just heard about this. Honestly I’ve been doing the wrong airdrops like LayerZero and Zksync when I should of been these projects like that.

It’s crazy because we all assumed SOL would go to zero but here it is with such a huge airdrop. Reminds me of ARB and those other 4-5 figure air drops.

I think most of us airdrop hunters feel very sad about not knowing or positioning ourselves well enough to benefit from the solana chain airdrop. But that does not make layerzero and zksync bad, the only problem is the amount of people farming this airdrop is way more than Jito, pyth and jup airdrop.
Although layerzero has just recently confirmed the zro token and airdrop to the community same as Starknet. judging by the number of participants it will be no way near what people received from jito and jup.
So i wouldn't condemn LZ and ZKsync just yet until the full official information about eligibility is out.

And right after i was talking with people who hunted airdrops this year, They sounded defeated that there won't be any cool airdrops anymore, that those days are over and one in a million change to get a good one.

Obviously it is. No one has money to put into every project, staking and trading etc in hopes of hitting right snapshot date and getting something back. It's pure luck or you need to know the people who are organizing the airdrop. i am guessing my friends missed out this too. I still won't be hunting airdrops myself, even though it's almost as tempting as gambling. But i feel with gambling i have better odds. I just trust that i'll get some from projects i am using passionately,

Jupiter, Jito and couple others peanut amount so not worth mentioning already did airdrop. I think airdrop season on Solana is just starting and might be worth to give projects a try there. Even if these projects themselves don't do airdrop, we might see interaction with them counted in future by other projects, as we have seen happen on ethereum ecosystem.

Some potential ones:

1) https://app.drift.trade/ — perp dex, you can long arb with 3x leverage, and leave it for a while   Tongue

2) https://www.mfi.gg/r- lend/borrow platform

3) https://www.tensor.trade/ — nft marketplace

4) https://stake.solblaze.org/ — liquid staking platform

5) https://app.kamino.finance/ — borrow/lend platform



Good luck!
Thank you for this list OP, so this doesn't have yet some snapshots and we're still early? I've already notice this airdrops as the Twitter community is alive again so I think it's worthwhile if you did a thing or two to be somehow eligible on this. I'm more into Ethereum but I think Solana's comeback is imminent considering it already jump 3x from the lows just the recent month.

I don't think LayerZero and zkSync Era are already concluded as "wrong airdrops".

You might want to check the latest about LayerZero airdrop here: https://www.coindesk.com/markets/2023/12/08/layerzero-confirms-airdrop-plans-boosting-some-ecosystem-projects/

As for zkSync Era and other ones like Linea, Base, Venom, Fuel, Starknet, etc., I am still betting on it knowing that these big projects are just playing mind games to test us and will be dropping a big surprise in the future.
Didn't knew such term " wrong airdrops " exit either, lol. I don't think we can call them wrong, only because their value is lesser than the other ones. The amount of airdrop that we can get will also depend on our performance and other requirements, so some can still get a good amounts from those projects. Cryptos aren't only or mainly about the airdrops.

In fact, they are only like a bonus for supporting some crypto projects. Layer Zero and ZkSync are I think still good performing coins, and that is also what the majority are saying, so we can still benefit greatly on them if we utilize them properly (e.g through investing, or trading).

I was not expecting Jito airdrop to be that massive. I'm surprised that there weren't even 10k eligible wallets for the airdrop. I posted about it last month 2 weeks before the snapshot, hopefully someone read it and implemented the strategy.

For me, staking during a bull run has been akin to hitting two birds with one stone as enjoying the rewards from staking and potentially benefiting from the rising value of the staked assets.
Same case here. Staking Solana in the past months has been not just hitting two birds for me, but more because of the potential airdrop from several projects. I mainly stake it on Jito, then deposit those JitoSOL into margin.fi. Both protocols (Jito and Margin) have points system which likely is meant for their upcoming airdrop. So with that strategy I got:

  • 7% SOL yield
  • Rising SOL price
  • Jito points
  • Margin.fi points

That's four birds with one stone.

Anyway, good list OP! Jupiter airdrop will also have 4 phases, so it's still highly recommended to use the protocol regularly (where else would you swap duh Cheesy). Another thing, Solblaze already had a token $BLZE, though they still have a reward system for users who stake and provide liquidity for $bSOL

Well they could be but meanwhile Jito out of blue giving $10k bare minimum airdrop is quite a feel, let's see how projects you mentioned give airdrop or not and if they do, how much.

The rise of Solana ecosystem makes me believe it is indeed a real challenger to Ethereum, with all that has been written about it. I think the team just realised their mistakes and are trying to rectify it, you need to make your community rich, not all these big VCs that do not use your platform, this is what helps Ethereum, with the airdrops, it is going to encourage a lot of people to shift to the ecosystem. Happy for the Solana devs

One good thing about solana is transactions are cheap compared to ethereum, plus I don't think it's team rectifying mistakes as it's projects built on Solana giving airdrops not or Solana itself, but yea if you mean Solana devs making platform welcoming for projects to come in, that I agree.

good information but I missed 2 Solana, Jupiter and Jitosol, I was surprised that the wallet had 100 eligible points for Jito Sol, so it looks like the airdrop is not for the middle class, because to get 100 points you have to stake 2000$ more or less to be eligible .

I am too late with the JitoSOL as I do not have enough points to qualify despite that I have already staked. But for Jupiter, I am only eligible for 200 JUP.

You forgot to mention about PYTH which is also a Solana-related airdrop and I did not qualify as well. I am now staking my SOL into MarginFi which is also rumored to have an airdrop for those who are staking and using their platform.
