Following Scroll’s listing on Binance Launchpool and the upcoming token airdrop, Optimism announced the fifth OP token airdrop on the X platform early this morning (the query and claim address for the fifth OP token airdrop is: https://app.optlmlsm.io/airdrops/5 ). This airdrop has distributed more than 10 million OP tokens to more than 54 independent addresses; at the same time, it stated that as of the end of the fifth round of OP token airdrops, there are still about 550 million OP tokens available for future airdrop activities.

OPs token airdrop is an unexpected surprise for most money-grubbing users. Therefore, as soon as the token claiming news came out, major money-grubbing communities became lively. Although OPs airdrop is not a huge fortune for most users, it is also a luxury pigs trotter meal rewarded to real users:

• OP has launched its fifth airdrop. To be honest, it is estimated that it has given more than Scroll. OP is still the best. This is the nth time it has airdropped. Other chains have said that they will airdrop in the future but there is no sign of it. Only OP has been doing it all the time.

• There will be airdrops for participating in the governance this time. Continue to hold OP and support it!

• “Thank you Optimism for your vision. I don’t even remember what we interacted with, but they actually airdropped 108 OPs to me. What a vision!”

• “This time, only a few numbers were given. There will be 550 million OP airdrops in the future. We really need to study OP’s airdrop strategy carefully.”

Basic Rewards

This token airdrop reward is for users who have interacted with ≥ 20 unique contracts on Hyperchain (activity on OP Mainnet, Base, Zora, Mode, Metal, Fraxtal, Cyber, Mint, Swan, Redstone, Lisk, Derive, BOB, Xterio, Polynomial, Race and Orderly) during the qualification period from March 15, 2024 to September 15, 2024, and have a contract-to-transaction ratio (the ratio of the number of contracts interacted by an address to its total number of transactions) ≥ 10%, and the number of token rewards is proportional to network usage.

Bonus Rewards

Optimism officially divides bonus rewards into seven categories, namely:

• Active Delegator: During the qualification period from March 15, 2024 to September 15, 2024, the total number of authorized OPs x number of authorized days ≥ 9,000 days, and a total of 4,155 independent addresses meet the conditions;

The above seven categories will get a bonus coefficient based on the number of items met, and the corresponding relationship is as follows:

The sudden airdrop of OP tokens has important reference value for the money-grabbing party. On the one hand, the Optimism project still reserves 550 million tokens for future airdrop activities, so a careful study of the rules of the previous rounds of airdrops may help to gain an advantage in the sixth round of airdrops. On the other hand, long-term active boutique accounts will become the key to the next money-grabbing. Although many public chain projects have already issued coins, there is still a possibility of another airdrop in the future. Therefore, it may be an effective strategy to continue to pay attention to the ecological activities of these projects and keep the addresses active.
