Airdrops and Potential Projects to Follow in 2024

With the successful Airdrop of Starknrt, many investors are starting to look for the next potential opportunity. This article will introduce several projects worth following in 2024, including clear Airdrop plans, projects with market expectations for potential, and some zero-cost interaction opportunities that are in the testing phase.

Clarify the Airdrop Plan Project

Linea

Linea is a zk-rollup solution that allows developers to deploy smart contracts just like on Ethereum. It offers users the experience and security assurances 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 ZK Rollup based on the Optimism Bedrock architecture. The project plans to issue tokens in 2024, with 7% of the total supply allocated to the community. Although the Odyssey event in January has ended, users can still supplement on-chain records based on previous tasks, such as using the official cross-chain bridge, experiencing ecosystem cross-chain bridges, forming LPs, purchasing domain names, etc.

Potential Projects

Scroll

Scroll is the native zkEVM Layer 2 solution for Ethereum, achieving native compatibility with existing Ethereum applications and tools. It processes transactions off-chain and publishes succinct correctness proofs on-chain, resulting in higher throughput and lower costs.

LayerZero

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

zkSync

zkSync is a Layer 2 scaling solution developed by Matter Labs, utilizing the latest generation of zero-knowledge proof technology to retain the security properties of the underlying blockchain. It executes computations and stores data off-chain, while verifying the state transition zero-knowledge proofs of each Rollup block on the main chain.

Testnet Project

Berachain

Berachain is a DeFi-based EVM-compatible L1 built on top of the Cosmos SDK. It launched the Artio public testnet on January 11, and within a short period, the number of addresses exceeded 1 million. Users can participate in various interactions such as Swap, providing liquidity, governance, minting, lending, and trading.

Fuel

Fuel is a UTXO-based modular execution layer designed to bring globally accessible scalability to Ethereum. As a modular execution layer, it achieves global throughput in ways that a monolithic chain cannot. Users can participate in testnet activities, including creating wallets, claiming test tokens, using swayswap, and creating domain names.

When participating in these projects, it is advisable to follow the active duration (at least more than 3 months) and wallet balance. For users with multiple addresses, data query tools can be used to identify any gaps. With the development of blockchain technology, these projects may bring new investment and participation opportunities, which are worth keeping an eye on.
