Airdrops have undergone significant changes in the past year, moving away from social spamming to offering liquidity to new protocols and testing out new reward functions. Today, we are sharing our top airdrop picks for the summer. Since 2017, we have analyzed over 15 thousand airdrops and published about one-third of them. Imagine getting free money just by being in the right place at the right time – sounds too good to be true, right? Welcome to AirdropAlert.com. In this blog, we will explore our airdrop picks across various niches in this space. But first, let’s discuss why this summer might feel a bit lackluster for crypto enthusiasts.
Summer Blues in the Crypto World
Summer is typically a quiet period for the crypto market. Trading volumes decrease, prices stabilize, and many investors and traders take a break, waiting for the next big wave. It’s a time when the excitement of bull runs seems to fade away. But fear not! While the market may seem slow, airdrops are an excellent way to stay engaged and potentially earn some free tokens. While the market is sluggish, airdrop farmers are still active!
Why Airdrops?
Airdrops offer benefits to both projects and participants. Projects gain exposure, early users, or liquidity, while participants receive free tokens. Claiming airdrops is easy and allows you to diversify your crypto portfolio with minimal effort. Let’s take a look at some of the best airdrops currently happening.
Even during these quieter days, there are numerous airdrop distributions taking place. Just this week, we’ve seen zkSync, Orderly, and Azuro distributing tokens to their farmers. Check the links to see if you are eligible for those.
Here are our Top Airdrop Picks for this Summer
Are you ready? Drum rolls… Here we go.
1] Blast
We have to start this list with Blast. This might be the most significant airdrop farming opportunity of the year, or even the decade. With valuations estimating billions of dollars for the upcoming TGE, the amount being airdropped will be massive. You can passively farm it by providing liquidity in ETH or Stablecoins, or actively farm it through the many dApps on this layer 2.
For more information on the Blast Mainnet Airdrop, visit our listing page. There are still 2 weeks left to farm some points & gold. Ensure you maximize your point multiplier by using the dApps. We recently published a guide on how to do this with minimal effort. A new multiplier was just released, allowing you to earn up to 22x your points.
CBB, the farmer in the image above, singlehandedly farmed a 7-figure Blast Airdrop. Yes, 7 figures. Just Blast gold is estimated to be around $5-6 and is selling at pre-markets. So at $5 per gold, his Blast gold is worth $1.8 million. And he still has 66B blast points to go. He is likely to earn over $5 million from this single airdrop.
2] PixelTap
If you’ve been participating in airdrop farming with us for a few months, you might remember the Pixelverse airdrop. Many farmers claimed thousands of dollars worth of $PIXEL.
Now, it’s time to get back into action because Pixelverse is back with a new $PIXFI airdrop. This time, they are venturing into the popular “tap-to-earn” games meta. By playing mini-games on your phone and tapping your screen, you can participate in these airdrops.

3] Olive Network
We believe a new trend will emerge over the next few months – layer-3 blockchains. The focus has primarily been on layer-2 airdrops in the past year, so why not elevate it to the next level for the rest of the bull cycle?
Olive Network is the first layer-3 airdrop we have listed. It’s centered around staking & restaking (LST) with partnerships with well-known names like Eigenlayer, KelpDao, EtherFi, and more. Explore all the airdrop details on AirdropAlert.com
4] BetFury
It’s betting season! All degens are actively betting on the Euro Cup 2024, and the Copa America is starting soon as well. I must admit, I’ve been quite involved in crypto sportsbooks lately, placing bets, watching matches, and enjoying some airdrop farming and bonus hunting. Why not, right?
Recently, we listed an airdrop campaign from a reputable crypto casino that offers various airdrop farming opportunities while you place bets. Check out Betfury.
5] Get Grass
If you haven’t come across this airdrop before reading this blog, you’ve been missing out. Hundreds of community members of Airdrop Alert have been actively farming this for months.
In short, it’s a DePIN airdrop that you can join by running an extension, and you’ll be farming a future Grass Airdrop. Even as I write this, I’m actively farming Grass!

6] Shards
One niche we can’t overlook in our airdrop picks is Gaming Airdrops. Many professional gamers have become airdrop farmers this year, while crypto enthusiasts have turned into gamers as well. It’s a win-win situation combining two worlds.
The Shards airdrop has recently caught our attention in this category. With simple quests, you can start earning $SHARDS. Explore this opportunity to join the movement.
7] Eigenpie
Staking and Restaking (LST) airdrops have been lucrative for farmers this year. The only drawback is that you need a significant amount of capital to participate, as you effectively lock it away for farming.
One of the latest opportunities is Eigenpie. If you have some ETH to spare, you can farm this airdrop while also earning Eigenlayer points.
How to Claim Airdrops Safely
While airdrops are exciting, it’s crucial to stay cautious. Scammers often imitate legitimate projects. Here are some tips to ensure your safety:
- Verify the authenticity of the project.
- Use a separate wallet for airdrops.
- Never share your private keys.
- Join reputable communities for information.
- Follow us on X as we perform due diligence for you. Make sure to follow the correct account @airdropalertcom, as there are impostors.
- Utilize Wallet Guard or Pocket Universe for additional wallet security.
