It is a new week and I've got lots of new crypto airdrop updates for you, so let's start off with the big news from today, which is that the ZK sync token is going to be dropping soon and their eligibility Checker should be going live tomorrow. Now, I say this because they've been dropping a whole bunch of stuff on Twitter saying welcome to the ZK nation. Also, there's a live stream that is going in 19 hours on the Bankless podcast. It's called announcement live stream with a logo for ZK sync. Previous, a lot of the major crypto airdrops within this space have been announced on Bankless, including but not limited to Optimism, Igen Layer, and a bunch of other ones as well.
There's also a blog post from ZK sync saying that there's going to be more details this week about the token allocations and how you can contribute. So yeah, this one is actually finally here. In preparation for the next 20 hours or so until we get the Checker, you can go and do this layer three Quest called Introducing ZK Nation. It's just a couple of clicks through and then you can mint a cube and claim the rewards. Probably not going to have any relevance for the airdrop. Now, I've previously suspected that they might do some sort of multiphase airdrop with at least a couple of different checkpoints where you can earn some tokens. If they drop 100% of the airdrop Supply, then honestly, that would be amazing. I'm all for that. But these days, most projects tend to at least stretch it out over a couple of seasons to keep people engaged. So I wouldn't be shocked if it's not one and one and.
Alright, let's talk about some other airdrop updates. So for starters, I wanted to briefly talk about the puff mcoin airdrop campaign that's currently ongoing. They released this post today saying that all me ERS on Mantel will be getting puff drops in anticipation of the launch of their new governance token called Cook. This is an interesting new development. I'm hoping that they will be rewarding people that actually stake with the Puff campaign more than people that just hold mantle eth on the Mantel L2. But previously, I had actually expected that this was going to keep happening, that they would reward people just holding me or using it in other Mantle DeFis, and it looks like that is actually going to be happening. So, yeah, if you've been using me to farm airdrops on Mantel, you will now be getting a share of the puff mem coin, which the team has confirmed is going to be one of the major inputs into getting a decent allocation of Cook. This is super bullish for people that are just holding Meth and haven't even been engaging in the Puff airdrop campaign because now you're still going to be getting some anyways. And then hopefully it's not too dilutive of the people that are actively farming Puff.
Alright, next up, I wanted to talk about a brand new airdrop opportunity that at this point is still definitely underformed. And this is a multiair drop qualifier. It's called Ox Astra. It's a game where currently you earn Resources by bridging to and from different networks which appear as planets in the interface. Here, but in phase two of the game, you'll be able to use those resources to craft things and actually interact with the ecosystem. For starters, I just want to say it's actually been kind of fun. I've been burning a little bit of money bridging between all these different networks, and if I open up my thing here, yeah, I've bridged 114 times, and currently this is the holding value and the rank I have in the gold league. So basically overall, there's less than 10,000 wallets currently farming this, and the way that it works is this is built on top of Orbiter Finance. Now Orbiter Finance is a bridge in case you didn't know; I've spoken about it a bunch of times on the channel here. Now as a standalone, I've kind of actually got turned off of farming Orbiter Finance because it can be one of the more expensive Bridges. However, the reason why I actually like this opportunity is because it's really an airdrop Lego. So by making these transactions through Astra right here, this is the little bridge over here, then you will be actually triggering interactions and earning points for the Astra airdrop. You'll be earning resources for the game, which is kind of a side bonus, but then you will also actively be earning points for the Orbiter Finance airdrop. You will be able to complete these quests that are ongoing right now for Orbiter Finance, where you get bonus points for bridging to and from specific chains. And then on top of all of that, you'll be interacting with some tokenless networks like Tao and Scroll. And then on top of all that, you can also earn a share of this pink meme coin airdrop for bridging to Tao. And on top of that, you can also earn a share of this Orb Guide meme coin drop that's been going on. So, it's a lot of different airdrop Legos, and that's why even though Orbiter Finance isn't my favorite Bridge, I've actually been burning some money and farming this one. So, I've gotten up to a decent chunk of O points at this stage, and this is the key strategy here. So, you should be bridging to and from Tao because that has really cheap bridges on right now. So if I go to bridge either to or from Tao, the cost to do so is 0.00002 ETH, which is basically a low and a few cents, maybe a $150 tops, and that is as far as I know the cheapest route... etc.
