The DePIN Airdrop Ecosystem (10+ projects)
Effortlessly farming countless airdrops in the background
Broader View of DePIN Airdrops
To be honest, I really really like DePIN airdrops. That is purely because they are so effortless to farm, for the most just download an extension and call it a day. That being said I highly highly recommend doing it on a burner device as a safety precaution, e.g. I bought a $100 Chromebook.
DePIN Opportunities
There are a ton of DePIN projects that you can farm at the moment. Here is a quick breakdown of the projects I am interacting with, how I’m interacting, a link to each (click the title), and my current standing:
A project with $4m in funding that is aiming to build a decentralised infrastructure network through nodes
My current standing: N/A as I just started this
A new DePIN project with $10.8m in funding to connect blockchain and AI to drive sustainable decentralised infrastructure on Solana
My current standing: N/A as I just signed up
Stork (Ref code: NGP5I5VK6F)
Stork is an oracle with $4m in funding and the node extension acts to validate Stork signed price attestations
You can also play a daily game in the extension
My current standing: 9,163 verified messages
The Bless team is using their $8m in funding to be a decentralised and shared computer
My current standing: 295 days of participation time
The team is building a peer-to-peer manufacturing network on SUI, allowing anyone to upload a design, receive royalties, and have it made anywhere in the world
My current standing: 10,015 points
Using $5m funding to build an iOS app that conducts network speed tests to create a global map of internet quality
My current standing: 379 hexes + 70 tokens
Orochi Network has raised $12m and is building verifiable data infrastructure, emphasising the use of ZKPs for secure and verifiable data processing
The ONProver is a website version of a DePIN extension, i.e. just leave the tab open. Once you have earned 50 ON tokens you can claim them on the Monad testnet
My current standing: ~38 ON earned
Chakra is building a permisionless database by turning public internet data into structured datasets—open, queryable, and built for AI
My current standing: N/A
A slightly different decentralised AI DePIN project in that it focuses on the “Human Layer of AI” by allowing users to contribute training data
$10m in funding (recent fundraise)
My current standing: 8,230 points
My strategy: You can also complete quizzes and other missions from time-to-time to earn additional points
DAWN (Ref code: okj73i7h)
DAWN has put together $35m+ in funding DAWN for a decentralised wireless network for delivering Internet service.
Through the protocol and hardware, property owners or residents have the opportunity to buy and sell internet capacity in the area around them
My current standing: 83,055 points
Building a fully distributed AI runtime on Solana with $10m in funding
My current standing: 14,843 points (10,170 in Season 1)
Nexus has $27.2m in funding and is building an EVM Layer 1 whilst also leveraging Caldera technology
Also a decentralised “super computer”
My current standing: ~74 Devnet Points | 3,280 web points Testnet I | 896 points Testnet II | 6.2385 NEX Testnet III
Perceptron (previously Blockmesh)
Another DePIN extension, they are building an AI data network “where humans, not platforms, earn”
My current standing: 2,334,260 points
Since farming 95% of these takes zero effort after setup I farm pretty much all of them on a spare device. I would highly recommend prioritising the newer ones as with previous DePIN airdrops like GRASS, early participation was the most important factor!
That’s all for now!
