Hey guys,
I gave up on the Solana ecosystem after the FTX saga. But in hindsight, I missed out on valuable opportunities within the network.

With the recent release of Jupiter’s eligibility criteria a few days ago, I was extremely lucky to have made the mark.
All thanks to me executing a $0.62 swap on Jupiter to complete a Layer3 quest.
I cannot stress how important Layer3 is to improve your on-chain reputation. It has already helped me get both $PYTH and $JUP.
If you have not signed up for Layer3, I encourage you to start completing quests to boost your on-chain reputation (my referral link).

💸 $100 Wallet Updates
I started a challenge where I’m aiming to grow my wallet with airdrops starting with just $100.
Here are some updates:
I received my first win by completing an XDEFI wallet campaign:
I’ll be updating what I did with these tokens soon.
If you’d like to join me on this journey, I’m documenting everything I do in this thread.
What I did this week
Here are the main activities that I did to potentially qualify for these airdrops:

🔐 Secure your funds with this 2-wallet strategy
Did you know your airdrop wallet should be kept separate from your normal wallet?
Having your funds in the same wallet could expose it to smart contract risks, or even worse when you lose your seed phrase.
Here’s the combination that I’m using for my funds (referral links included):
Airdrop wallet: Ledger Nano X connected to Metamask
Cold storage wallet for buying and holding funds: Tangem (Get 10% off when you use my link)
I store minimal funds in a hot wallet, as those are the most risky. This hack that cost a prominent Twitter influencer resulted in life-changing losses, and you can find my analysis here.
⚫ Linea
I shared the exact steps I took to complete all tasks (except the zkUSD one) in this thread.
It cost me $12 in total.
The best way to bridge out of Linea
Linea’s Week 1 campaign required you to bridge ~ $1k in funds. But if you want to bridge them out, take advantage of this promo by Orbiter.
Manta Pacific
I shared some of the mistakes I made when completing the tasks here.
📜 Scroll
Complete swap on Sepolia testnet here
⚫ Mantle
Mint Mantle Moonshot MJSBT here.
Minimum cumulative leverage trading volume (Long or Short) of 10,000USD
Stake a minimum of 100 $KTC on the KTX.Finance “Earn” page for at least 4 days
Purchase with a Net Asset Value (NAV) of 100 USD and hold $KLP for at least 4 days to be qualified
Refer 2 friends who leverage trade at least 1,000 USD of trading volume
Swap on AGNI and reach a total trading value exceeding 1,000 MNT and add liquidity any tokens and any amount for min 3 days
I’m skipping this one because it’s too tedious.
Instead, I’m gunning for the AGNI campaign.
