Today, we have something even better. We found some potential airdrop opportunities that require ZERO capital. We are talking about testnets.

Testnets serve as sandbox environments where developers can experiment with new features, fix bugs, and test the overall stability of their blockchain projects before the official launch. 

Projects often need people to use the testnet to create performance benchmarks or get feedback.

In turn, they reward people who use the testnets by airdropping tokens to them when the project is live.

By actively engaging with these testnets, you can potentially earn token rewards in the form of airdrops.

Today, we present you with three testnets with the potential for airdrops. 

Let’s get started!

Berachain

Berachain is a novel high-performance blockchain built on Cosmos-SDK.

Despite its brand being based on a meme, Berachain raised an incredible $42M in funding from investors like Polychain Capital and has confirmed to launch its  “BERA” token.

The team has recently launched their testnet “Artio”, and users, who interact with their testnet, can potentially be eligible for the airdrop.

How to participate

Here is a step-by-step video tutorial (if you have questions, hit us on Discord).

 Time: 10-20mins

1. Go to the Berachain testnet faucet.
2. Input your wallet address in the “Wallet Address” section.
3. Prove that you’re not a bot by clicking the corresponding button.
4. Click on “Drip Tokens” and get Testnet tokens (you can get testnet tokens every 8hrs).
5. Now, go to Berachain’s main DEX.
6. Connect your wallet, add the Berachain-Atrio network (when you connect your MetaMask, it automatically asks to add the new network) and switch the network to the Berachain-Atrio.
7. Swap from BERA to HONEY and STGUSDC, provide liquidity and play around with the DEX.
8. After playing with the DEX, go to “HONEY” and use your STGUSDC to mint HONEY.
9. Next, play around with BERPS (make long/short trades and provide liquidity to vaults).
10. You can also go to BEND and supply/borrow assets.
11. Lastly, go to GALXE’s campaign page, claim points and finish incomplete tasks (if you have one).

Some notes: 

• To get a role on their Discord server, you need to be human-like and active on their channel.
• You can go to their campaign page and claim 5 points daily if you use their faucet every 24 hours.
• Providing liquidity on BERPS and BEND can earn you BGT rewards. Don’t forget to stake them here.

TapiocaDAO

TapiocaDAO is DAO building an omni-chain money market across 17+ EVM and non-EVM chains. 

The project has raised $6 million at a whopping $44 million valuation from investors like LayerZero Network, Jones DAO, DeWhales Capital, etc. The team confirmed they will have a token “TAP”, and early testnet users can potentially be eligible for an airdrop allocation.

How to participate

Here is a step-by-step video tutorial (if you have questions, hit us on Discord).

Time: 10-15mins

1. First, get some testnet tokens from Fantom testnet faucet, Avalanche Fuji Testnet, and Aribitum Goerli.
2. Now, go to Tapioca’s testnet page and connect your wallet.
3. Choose the WETHM token and click “Mint”.
4. Similarly, you can also mint FTMM and AVAXM.
5. Now, go to Tapioca Teleporter and transfer 500 FTMM to Avalanche Fuji.
6. Switch chains and transfer 2 AVAXM from Avalanche Fuji to Fantom testnet.
7. Next, go to Tapioca Mint, click on WETHM and deposit 50% of your WETHM. On the Loan-to-Value section, choose 25% and mint USDO (you will receive three signature requests and one transaction confirmation request).
8. Now, go to Tapioca Lend and choose GLMP/USDO. Lend 100% of USDO.
9. That is it! You can play around with different chains and assets if you want.

Note: You might want to repeat these actions occasionally for higher chances. However, just like with any airdrop opportunity, there is no guarantee that the team will do an airdrop for testnet users. But the only thing you’ve got to lose here is time.

Mind Network

Mind Network is a platform pioneering data security and privacy in the Web3 industry. It raised capital from notable investors such as Binance Labs, Arweave SCP ventures, etc. It is also part of Chainlink’s BUILD program. They also launched their testnet, and participating in it can result in a potential airdrop.

How to participate

Here is a step-by-step video tutorial (if you have questions, hit us on Discord).

Time: 10-15mins

1. Go to DappTest and connect your wallet.
2. Choose Mumbai Network. When you click on it Metamask will automatically ask you to add the network.
3. The gas token of the network is MATIC. You can get free testnet tokens from here.
4. Choose Polygon Mumbai Faucet, insert your wallet and get testnet tokens.
5. Now, get back to DappTest, click “Register”, and sign the transactions.
6. Now, you go to your Metamask and create another wallet.
7. Get testnet tokens here again and register that wallet DappTest as well.
8. Send some MATIC from one wallet to another and repeat this action back and forth.
9. Next, go to the Galxe campaign website and connect your wallet.
10. First, you need to finish simple tasks such as “Following Mind Network on Twitter”, etc.
11. To complete the “Mind Network’s Space user” task, just follow them on the Galxe.
12. After completing all tasks, claim your points.
13. After claiming your points from the first task, you will also be eligible for the second NFT. Claim that as well (you can skip depositing additional funds if you already have some funds on Polygon).

Cryptonary’s take

We hope you take the time to try out the three zero-cost airdrop opportunities we shared in this report.

There is no real capital involved. Therefore, nothing should stop you from exploring these testnets. 

If you are a newbie, participating in testnets can help you learn how to navigate the DeFi space. Think of it as free education, except in this case, you might be rewarded.

The recipe is simple: allocate 1-2 hours, grab some drinks or snacks, explore these testnets, and potentially get airdrops.

Cryptonary, OUT!
