As Bitcoin (BTC) and crypto markets continue to exhibit increased volatility, traders and investors seek ways to protect their investments. Amid this market uncertainty, crypto airdrops offer lucrative opportunities with minimal initial investment.
Airdrops distribute free tokens to attract new users and expand communities. The following airdrops present a chance for crypto enthusiasts to earn new tokens and engage with emerging projects.
KITE AI
KITE AI (or GoKITE AI/ Kite AI) is a Layer 1 (L1) blockchain platform tailored for artificial intelligence applications. Built as a sovereign chain on Avalanche, it aims to create a decentralized ecosystem where AI models, data providers, and developers can collaborate effectively.
The platform introduces Proof of Attributed Intelligence (Proof of AI), a consensus mechanism that ensures fair attribution and transparent rewards for ecosystem contributors.
Kite AI has launched its first incentivized testnet phase called Aero, setting the stage for participants to engage in testing the network while earning points. The program features a points-based system where participants can complete various tasks to accumulate XP (experience points).
“Daily free XP rewards for chatting with AI agents. Earn points through simple social tasks & referrals,” Airdrops.io shared on X.
Specific token allocation details remain undisclosed. However, the testnet participation could be valuable for potential future token distributions.
“Stay Positioned for Avalanche First AI-Focused Layer 1 Airdrop… Complete free tasks and interact with AI to earn XP—your key to KITE AI airdrop eligibility,” airdrops researcher JayPee urged.
Newton
Newton (or Magic Newton) is a chain unification network. The project is the handiwork of Magic Labs and Polygon Labs. Built atop Polygon’s AggLayer, Newton focuses on simplifying cross-chain interactions. It creates a unified user, application, and liquidity experience across blockchain networks, particularly EVM-compatible chains.
Newton’s user, application, and liquidity-experienced company secured $83 million in funding and established trust with over 190,000 developers. As part of its crypto airdrop, Newton launched a Credits program where users earn rewards through various activities on their platform.
Upon signing up, users receive 150 credits, with the capacity to earn more credits by completing quests in the Newton Portal. The program includes daily opportunities to earn bonus credits through activities like dice rolling. The basic participation in the Credits program is free. However, future interactions with the platform may require minimal transaction fees on the Polygon network.
The exact token distribution details remain announced. However, the credit system suggests a potential future token allocation based on user participation and engagement has not been.
Story Protocol
This is another crypto airdrop to watch this week. It comes after the project raised $134.30 million in funding. Fundraiser participants include Andreessen Horowitz and Polychain Capital, among others.
The project has offered participants a chance to mint exclusive NFTs (non-fungible tokens) since January 10.
Nerzo has offered NFT ownership and management across multiple blockchains and protocol networks. Participants can mint it to increase activity on the test network and the chances of getting airdrop.
“Holders of this NFT will receive 10 million $NRZ Tokens for free,” the project said.
Meanwhile, some users have raised concerns over halted operations, but Nerzo urged community members to track its Discord for updates, citing website updates.
OneFootball
OneFootball Club is a digital hub for football enthusiasts. The project plans to distribute its native token, OneFootball Credits (OFC), to users who earn BALLS points through various activities.
The project’s airdrop follows a fundraiser co-led by Union Square and Adidas, which raised $307 million. Additional participants include Animoca Brands and Dapper Labs. This airdrop marks the second season of OneFootball points farming.
“Introducing OFC: Powering OneFootball on Base. We are excited to announce OneFootball Credits ($OFC), the official token of OneFootball! Launching as an ERC-20 token, OFC operates on both Ethereum and Base,” the project said recently.
While these are confirmed upcoming airdrops, investors should thoroughly research which projects and opportunities to farm.
