Nansen Points Season 1 was officially launched on June 17. As a veteran platform in the field of on-chain data analysis, the strong correlation between its points system and future airdrops has attracted market attention. In addition, projects such as Layer 1 public chain SKATE, AI-driven social platform SOPHON, and cross-chain infrastructure RELAY PROTOCOL have also released airdrop news recently. The following is a detailed analysis and participation guide for each project:
1. Nansen
Project Background
Nansen was founded in 2020, with a total financing of US$88.2 million and a valuation of US$750 million. Its core function is to analyze the flow of funds on the chain through labeled wallet addresses such as exchanges, VCs, and high-net-worth users, serving institutional investors and professional traders. Its platform has more than 120,000 staking users, and the ecological activity is significant.
Airdrop Strategy: Points Plan Season 1
Core Logic: Accumulate points through "staking + subscription + invitation", and the amount of points directly affects the future airdrop weight.
1. Points Acquisition Method
Subscription Level: Free Version: Only basic functions, the probability of obtaining points is extremely low; Pioneer Version (monthly fee of US$99): Suitable for individual users, with medium efficiency of obtaining points; Professional Version (monthly fee of US$499): Enterprise-level analysis tool, with the fastest speed of obtaining points.
Staking Tokens:
Supported Currencies: Popular new coins such as Hype, Tia, and Ron, as well as mainstream assets such as Sol, Atom, and Strk;
Operational Advantages: Staking does not require KYC, the larger the amount, the faster the points increase, and the total staking volume of the platform has exceeded US$1 billion.
Social fission:
Share the exclusive invitation link to Twitter/telegram. For each new user successfully invited (email registration + basic interaction required), the inviter will receive 100 points;
Submit proof of social influence (such as a social media account with ≥500 followers) to unlock the "super invitation" permission, and the single user invitation reward will be increased to 200 points.
2. Airdrop Outlook
Although the project party has not clarified the token airdrop rules, referring to the quantitative qualification model designed by Arbitrum and Nansen, it is speculated that subsequent airdrops will allocate tokens according to the points ranking, with a focus on rewarding pledged users and highly active inviters. It is recommended to give priority to the Professional subscription + large-amount pledge combination to quickly accumulate points.
2. Skate
Project Highlights
As a modular Layer 1 public chain, Skate has attracted 180+ dApps to settle in, processed 18 million transactions in the first month, and received $37 million in financing from institutions such as Polychain/Sequoia China. Its ecological airdrop revolves around Ollies points, which is achieved through NFT casting and multi-chain interaction.
Airdrop Strategy: Multi-chain NFT Minting + Points Redemption
1. Basic operations on the TON chain (limited time 500 points/piece)
Open the Telegram robot "Skateboard Workshop Bot", click "Mint Now" to cast random skateboard parts (truck/wheel/deck) NFT;
After collecting all 3 types of parts, synthesize the complete skateboard NFT in the "Inventory" tab. Each synthesized NFT can get 500 Ollies points (limited time reward before June 30, then restored to 1000 points);
Additional conditions for EVM wallet: You must first complete the "Build a Skateboard" task on Galxe (bind wallet + forward tweet), otherwise you will not be able to get points on chains such as ETH/BSC.
2. Cross-chain full-ecosystem operation (500 points/chain)
Enter the Stake Chain Park official website, connect to the Galxe certified wallet, and select 23 supported chains (such as Aptos/Sui/Polygon, etc.);
Repeat the "casting parts→synthesize NFT" process on each chain, and synthesize 1 skateboard NFT on a single chain to get 500 points, and there is no upper limit for multi-chain accumulation;
Profit maximization skills: give priority to chains with low gas fees (such as Arbitrum), and you can complete 10+ chain interactions in a single day to quickly accumulate points.
3. Time window
The points redemption channel will be closed on June 30. It is recommended to complete the synthesis operation of at least 5 chains before June 25 to ensure that you catch up with the first round of airdrop snapshots.
III. Sophon
Project Positioning
SOPHON is an "AI+DeSoc" fusion platform. Users can generate content and get incentives through AI tools. It has 380,000 registered users and received $22 million in financing led by a16z. Its airdrop focuses on the "Guardian Member" qualification, which needs to be unlocked through wallet interaction.
Airdrop threshold: wallet address screening + membership application
1. Qualification conditions (must be met at the same time)
Wallet creation time: ETH/Polygon wallet created before May 1, 2025;
On-chain activity: at least 10 transaction records in the past 3 months (including Swap/transfer/NFT casting);
Social binding: follow SOPHON official Twitter and join Discord.
2. Operation steps
Visit guardian.sophon.xyz and connect to a qualified wallet;
Complete "Wallet address verification → Social account authorization → KYC light authentication" (only need to submit mobile phone number + fuzzy face recognition);
Successfully receive the "Guardian Member NFT", which is the only certificate for subsequent airdrops. The first 100,000 users with the largest number of holders can get an additional "Early Supporter" label to increase the airdrop weight.
3. Hidden benefits
Participate in the AI content creation challenge (publish 3 AI-generated articles on the platform) to unlock the creator badge. It is expected that when the airdrop occurs on July 27, the token allocation for users with the badge will be 30% higher than that of ordinary members.
Fourth, Relay Protocol
Project Value
As a multi-chain interoperability solution, the Relay Protocol test network bridges assets of over $400 million, integrates 35+ networks, and has received $16 million in investment from institutions such as Pantera/Multicoin. Its airdrop is for ecosystem contributors, and on-chain interactions must be completed through platforms such as DappRadar.
Participation process: Qualification certification in four steps
1. Interaction record preparation
Complete at least 3 cross-chain transfers on the test network (such as Ethereum Goerli/Polygon Mumbai) (requires the Relay official bridge tool);
Join the official Discord, submit transfer screenshots + experience feedback in the "#testnet-feedback" channel, and be manually marked as the "Testnet Contributor" role by the administrator.
2. DappRadar claiming steps
Log in to the DappRadar airdrop page and search for Relay Protocol;
Connect the mainnet wallet (must be consistent with the testnet address), the system will automatically verify the testnet interaction record;
Complete KYC (submit passport photo + photo holding ID, review time is 24 hours), click "Claim Now" to pay 0.005 ETH Gas fee, and confirm the transaction.
3. High-weight operations
Become a Relay Protocol mainnet liquidity provider (add RELAY/ETH LP in Uniswap V3), and unlock the "Pro User" label if your holdings are ≥ $1,000;
Invite more than 5 friends to complete the testnet interaction, and submit the invitation list to the official email address (airdrop @relay.link), you will be awarded the title of "Influencer" and the airdrop share will increase by 50%.
Risk warning and operation suggestions
Anti-fraud core: All project airdrops are released through official channels (official website/Twitter/Discord), do not click on third-party links or disclose private keys;
Priority ranking: Skate has short-term explosive power (end of June, points exchange tokens are highly certain); medium- and long-term layout recommendations include Nansen and Relay Protocol (cross-chain infrastructure track has clear long-term demand).
