Seize This Moment: Gwei At All-Time Lows — Insider Roundup #26
This is the perfect opportunity to hunt for airdrops.
Hey guys,
Gwei has dipped to less than 10 over the weekend, which could signify that many are giving up on airdrop hunting.
However, this is the perfect time to perform transactions on Ethereum and other Layer-2s, as gas fees are really cheap right now.
I’ve compiled a thread on some of the tasks you can complete to qualify for multiple airdrops at the same time here.
What I did this week
Here are the main activities that I did to potentially qualify for these airdrops:
📝 Waitlist Opportunities
I’m not too sure what’s coming, but it’ll definitely be good to get on this waitlist by entering your email.
If you don’t have a De.Fi ID yet, sign up for one here.
🟣 zkSync Era
Gas cost ~ $2.50 in ETH
There are 16 different tasks, most of them don’t require any on-chain transactions, except for Mute.io, veSync, and Velocore (swap 10 USDC each to WETH).
The OATs are minted on zkSync, so they’ll increase your transaction count on the network.
Also, don’t forget to complete your daily tasks on Layer3 to earn more XP.
For more info, check out my guide on the zkSync airdrop here.
🔵 StarkNET
I shared the answers to the questions on Telegram, so do follow me here to never miss out on another airdrop.
For more info, check out my guide on the StarkNET airdrop here.
⚫ LayerZero
This snapshot has ended, do join my Telegram channel here and receive live updates for these time-sensitive tasks.
If you don’t have any STG yet and want to get started, check out my Tweet thread here.
This mint has already expired too.
While it says it’s a free mint, you need to pay some fees and you can find out more in my thread here.
For more info, check out my guide on the LayerZero airdrop here.
🔐 Secure your funds with this 2-wallet strategy
Did you know your airdrop wallet should be kept separate from your normal wallet?
Having your funds in the same wallet could expose it to smart contract risks, or even worse when you lose your seed phrase.
Here’s the combination that I’m using for my funds (referral links included):
Airdrop wallet: Ledger Nano X connected to Metamask
Cold storage wallet for buying and holding funds: Tangem (Get 10% off when you use my link)
I store minimal funds in a hot wallet, as those are the most risky. This hack that cost a prominent Twitter influencer resulted in life-changing losses, and you can find my analysis here.
⚫ Linea
3 tasks to complete, you’ll need to add 50 USDC to a liquidity pool for one of the tasks.
🟡 opBNB
It’s possible to mint this tracker on the opBNB mainnet, and it costs around 0.01 BNB ($2 USD).
If you’ve interacted with the platform either on the testnet or mainnet, you’re eligible to mint this NFT.
I created a cheatsheet for all 13 campaigns that are currently running for opBNB that could bring about some rewards.
If you’d like to have access to the full PDF with clickable links, download it here.
📜 Scroll
Scroll Sepolia Week 2 is live on Galxe, and there are 4 NFTs to collect:
Complete swap via Symbiosis on testnet. You can get more OATs by swapping on mainnet, but the fees are super high (I paid $1 in ETH on Polygon zkEVM).
Swap on the testnet
No on-chain transactions required, but you can make some swaps to increase your transaction count.
An on-chain swap is required
If you’d like a cheatsheet to ensure you’ve completed everything, check it out here.
⚫ Mantle
Fan.tech (Friend.tech) clone
Another similar platform to Friend.tech has appeared on Mantle. The process is exactly the same: send MNT to your new wallet tagged to your Twitter account and start trading.
Some invite codes for the platform:
fan-interest-decade-noodle
fan-need-gospel-awesome
You can buy my shares / keys here.
⚪ Zora
There are quite a few free mints on mint.fun which you can take advantage of to increase your transaction count.
What’s more, if you’ve minted your fundrop pass, you can maintain your minting streak and increase your points too.
Find out more about mint.fun and Zora my Mirror guides.
🟢 Venom
Layer3 Quest
Join Layer3 with my referral link if you don't have an account yet, and then complete the task here.
🌉 Bridges
You can now bridge all 4 Pandra NFTs to the Taiko testnet, which will be cheaper compared to bridging your Pandras to a mainnet network.
I’ve created 2 guides to help you master the Pandra King campaign.
This includes:
Pandra King Campaign Ultimate Guide eBook (walking you through every single step)
Pandra King Cheatsheet Tracker PDF (a handy companion to make sure you don't perform duplicate bridging transactions)
I’d love to hear your feedback and what other guides you’d like me to make, do feel free to send me a DM on Twitter.
💡 Others
If you own a BAB token, you can claim this badge on DeBank.
Find out more about DeBank in my Mirror guide here.
Owning this BAB token should give you access to another project backed by Binance Labs, and you can find out more here.
Get a free mint if your wallet was previously whitelisted.
🚀 Galxe OATs
Make 3 trades on the Arbitrum Goerli testnet (you’ll receive testnet USDC via the faucet).
This is similar to the opBNB mainnet task
Quiz answer: A
This campaign requires you to mint an NFT on Mirror (~ 1 USD on ETH). This will allow you to get the Co-op pledge member role on Discord.
Quiz answers: C B B A D D

I’ve created a Notion site to keep track of all the airdrops that I’m looking to earn from, including both project and network tokens.
