As BTC (Bitcoin) and the cryptocurrency market continue to show high volatility, traders and investors are looking for ways to protect their investments. In this market uncertainty, cryptocurrency airdrops provide low-cost, profitable opportunities.
Airdrops distribute free tokens to attract new users and expand the community. The upcoming airdrops provide cryptocurrency enthusiasts the chance to obtain new tokens and participate in emerging projects.
KITE AI
KITE AI (or GoKITE AI/ Kite AI) is a Layer 1 (L1) blockchain platform for artificial intelligence applications. Built as an independent chain on Avalanche, it aims to create a decentralized ecosystem where AI models, data providers, and developers can collaborate effectively.
The platform introduces a Proof of Attributed Intelligence (Proof of AI) consensus mechanism that ensures fair contribution and transparent rewards.
Kite AI has launched its first incentive testnet phase called Aero, allowing participants to earn points while testing the network. The program features a point-based system where participants can accumulate XP (experience points) by completing various tasks.
"Earn free XP rewards daily by chatting with AI agents. Earn points through simple social tasks and referrals." - Shared by Airdrops.io on X.
The specific token allocation details have not been disclosed. However, participating in the testnet may be valuable for potential future token distributions.
"Get ready for the first AI-centric Layer 1 airdrop on Avalanche... Complete free tasks and interact with AI to earn XP. This is the key to KITE AI airdrop eligibility." - Airdrop researcher JayPee urged.
Newton
Newton (or Magic Newton) is a chain integration network. The project is a collaboration between Magic Labs and Polygon Labs. Built on top of Polygon's AggLayer, Newton focuses on simplifying cross-chain interactions, providing an integrated user, application, and liquidity experience across EVM-compatible chains.
Newton's user, application, and liquidity experience company has secured $83 million in funding and built trust with over 190,000 developers. As part of a cryptocurrency airdrop, Newton has launched a credit program that allows users to earn rewards for various activities on the platform.
Upon sign-up, users receive 150 credits, and they can earn more credits by completing quests on the Newton portal. The program includes daily opportunities to earn bonus credits through activities like rolling dice. The basic participation in the credit program is free, but future interactions with the platform may require a minimal transaction fee on the Polygon network.
The exact token distribution details have not been announced, but the credit system suggests a potential future token allocation based on user engagement and interaction.
Story Protocol
Another notable cryptocurrency airdrop this week. This project has raised $134.3 million, with participants including Andreessen Horowitz and Polychain Capital.
The project has provided participants with exclusive Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) starting from January 10th.
Nerzo has enabled NFT ownership and management across multiple blockchain and protocol networks. Participants can mint these to increase their activity on the testnet and improve their chances of receiving the airdrop.
"Holders of these NFTs will receive 10 million $NRZ tokens for free." - The project stated.
Meanwhile, some users have expressed concerns about the suspended operations, but Nerzo has urged community members to track updates through Discord, citing website updates.
OneFootball
OneFootball Club is a digital hub for football (soccer) enthusiasts. The project plans to distribute its native token, OneFootball Credits (OFC), to users who earn BALLS points through various activities.
The project's airdrop follows a funding round co-led by Union Square and Adidas, raising $307 million. Additional participants include the Animoca Brands and Dapper Labs. This airdrop celebrates the second season of OneFootball's point farming.
"Introducing OFC: We're excited to announce the official token of OneFootball, the OneFootball Credits (OFC). Launched as an ERC-20 token, OFC will operate on Ethereum and Base."- The project recently stated.
These are confirmed upcoming airdrops, but investors should thoroughly research which projects and opportunities to farm.
