What Is Airdrop Farming?

 

Airdrop farming is the process of interacting with crypto platforms, testnets, dApps or wallets in the hope of receiving a token airdrop in the future. You may:

  • Use a new DeFi protocol

     
  • Mint testnet NFTs

     
  • Participate in a governance vote

     
  • Bridge assets or stake tokens

     

These actions help users qualify for retroactive token rewards once a project launches its token or expands its community.

But with hundreds of projects out there, how do you track them all? Enter AirdropScan.

How to Start Airdrop Farming with AirdropScan

 

Here's how to use AirdropScan to make airdrop farming efficient and rewarding:

1. Connect Your Wallet

Link your wallet to see if you’re eligible for any live airdrops or to track upcoming ones based on your activity.

2. Explore Airdrops by Category

Filter airdrops by project type (DeFi, GameFi, Layer 2, etc.), stage (live, upcoming) or wallet activity needed (testnet use, staking, governance).

3. Sort by Airdrop Score

Each project is given an AirdropScan Score, a mix of trust, community strength and activity requirements. Prioritize high-score projects with low entry barriers.

4. Set Alerts for New Drops

Get notified when new projects are added based on your wallet type or interests. Never miss a valuable opportunity again.

5. Track What You've Claimed

Your dashboard will show claimed vs. pending airdrops so you don’t forget to collect rewards.

Tips for Smarter Airdrop Farming

 

  • Focus on long-term protocols with real use cases (e.g. L2s, DEXs, infrastructure tools).

     
  • Avoid Sybil-like behavior (spam wallets), as many projects are using Sybil filters.

     
  • Stay active with quality dApps, even if they haven’t announced a drop yet, especially on hot networks like zkSync, Blast, or Base.

     
  • Use a dedicated wallet to keep your airdrop activity separate from your main holdings.
