Solana Chain Airdrop Tutorial

Communication and Sharing.

Project Background

The Solana ecosystem has tremendous potential for user development. Some projects, like Jito, have already issued tokens, while others like Tensor have even greater potential for token issuance. Anatoly Yakovenko, one of the core members of the Solana team, is the founder of Solana and brings extensive experience in blockchain and distributed systems.

Approach

Multiple projects within the Solana ecosystem can interconnect, allowing users to complete all airdrop processes at once. Although there may be some loss, the WEN distributed by individual wallets is sufficient to offset these losses. Additionally, gas fees on the Solana chain are relatively low, making this process very worthwhile.

Specific Tutorial

Prepare the Google Chrome browser with the Phantom wallet extension on your PC. For mobile devices, most steps can be completed using the OK Wallet or TP Wallet. Some projects may not be suitable for all users, so it's essential to assess your needs rationally.

GG

Log in to the official website via the invitation link and connect your wallet to complete simple tasks. GG is a new hunger game on the Solana chain, with funding, and the project team has explicitly stated there will be airdrops. Currently, you only need to connect your wallet and Twitter, and you can invite friends later.

Phoenix

Zeta

Zeta is the second-ranked perpetual contract exchange in the Solana ecosystem. The reason for choosing Zeta is that the platform has token issuance plans and a points system. As points increase, users will reportedly receive more airdrops. However, it's essential to note that contract trading carries risks, and participants should hedge risks and assess whether to participate. Even if you do participate, it's recommended to open and close trades promptly.

Jito

After logging into the official website, bind your wallet. Then stake SOL to receive JitoSol. Jito has already issued tokens, and the staked JitoSol can be used in interactions with other projects later on.

Marginfi

Log in to the official website and connect your wallet. Stake the previously obtained JitoSol to Marginfi to receive LST, then you can lend and borrow on the Marginfi platform. However, pay close attention to the health of each pool! It's recommended to use functions like Swap in Marginfi, such as exchanging JitoSol for some mSol to earn more points. Marginfi is also an airdrop project that adopts a points system. By inviting other users, you can participate in the points leaderboard competition.

Jup

Kamino

Log in to the official website and connect your wallet. On the Kamino platform, you can deposit some JitoSol, which not only allows interaction with Kamino but also earns Jito points.

Drift

Log in to the official website and connect your wallet. Contract trading carries risks, so there's no need for everyone to participate in this step. Manage your positions reasonably and hedge appropriately. First, you need to register an account, which may incur some fees but is not expensive. Then you can start perpetual contract trading. It's recommended to adopt a short-term rapid opening and closing strategy to realize profits promptly.

Conclusion

The Solana ecosystem is currently very mature, covering various fields such as DeFi, lending, NFT trading platforms, and bridges. Users can follow the provided process step by step.
