    What is Manta Network?

    Manta Network lets developers build and deploy zero-knowledge (ZK)-enabled applications and dApps on Ethereum with low fees, high scalability and developer-friendly features. Manta Pacific is the first EVM-equivalent ZK-application platform that is scalable and secure through Celestia DA and Polygon zkEVM. It offers the perfect environment for ZK-enabled applications by leveraging Manta’s Universal Circuits to enable ZK-as-a-Service and Celestia’s data availability for modularity to deliver low gas fees.

    A team of experienced founders from prestigious institutions, including Harvard, MIT, and Algorand, founded Manta Network. It has received investments from many of the top web3 investment funds, including Binance Labs and Polychain Capital. The project has raised over $60 million from Polychain, Binance Labs, CoinFund and others.

    Does Manta Network have a token?

    Manta Network will introduce a utility token called $MANTA, which will be used for its rewards mechanism, governance, and mining. $MANTA is expected to be listed sometime in early 2024. Here are some of the features of the MANTA token:

    • Governance: $MANTA token holders can vote on network governance decisions on Manta Pacific and Manta Atlantic
    • Staking: Staking $MANTA contributes to the overall security of Manta Atlantic and rewards collators for producing blocks
    • Network Fees: Manta Atlantic uses $MANTA to pay transaction fees, which are allocated to ecosystem projects, treasury, and collators
    • Native Liquidity & Collateral: $MANTA token can be used in Manta ecosystem to serve as native liquidity and collateral for various applications and services
    • Native Currency: $MANTA acts as the native currency for Manta Network, facilitating peer-to-peer transfers and transactions with contracts/pallets

    How to get a potential Manta Network ($MANTA) token airdrop?

    Here’s how to get a potential Manta Network ($Manta) token airdrop:

    1. Add Manta Network to MetaMask

      Log in to your MetaMask wallet and find the Manta Pacific Mainnet Network on Chainlist here. Click “Connect Wallet” and follow the steps on your MetaMask wallet to add the network.

    2. Join the New Paradigm at Manta Network

      Go to https://newparadigm.manta.network/?inviteCode=G2YCS and enter our invite code G2YCS to join. Note you must have an invite code to participate in the Manta Network token airdrop. Connect your Twitter account and wallet.

    3. Deposit ETH or USDC to Manta Network

      Click “Deposit” on the left-hand side of the page and select how much ETH or USDC you wish to deposit. Confirm the transaction on MetaMask.

    4. Earn STONE, wUSDM, box pieces and O-points.

      You will receive STONE and wUSDM within 24 hours of depositing ETH or USDC. STONE is yield bearing ETH. You will also receive box pieces, collect 25 box pieces to become 1 box that can then be opened. Bridging any amount onto Manta Network also lets you earn 5 O-Points per transaction. O-Points may be part of a potential airdrop in the future.

    5. Open boxes

      When you receive 25 box pieces, you will be able to open 1 box. You can open the boxes weekly. These boxes may contain an NFT, and the objective is to get a collection of 6 NFTs. Boxes may also contain Lead Codes which can be combined to become Modular 2s. Modular 2s are what will make you eligible for the airdrops.

    6. Withdraw ETH and USDC

      NOTE your deposited ETH and USDC can only be withdrawn after 69 days.

    7. Supply STONE into LayerBank

      LayerBank is a non-custodial on-chain lending protocol. You can deposit your STONE into LayerBank and earn 3.6%, Base APR, Layerbank Token (LAB) APY, and eventually MANTA APY. To supply STONE to LayerBank, go to https://manta.layerbank.finance/bank and make sure you are on the Manta Network. Then, click on the STONE market. Select how much STONE you wish to supply and click “Supply”.

    8. BONUS: Borrow Ethereum on LayerBank and bridge again to Manta Network

      By supplying STONE on LayerBank, you can use it as collateral to borrow ETH. The purpose of borrowing ETH is to transfer it off-chain, i.e. to transfer it from Manta to your MetaMask wallet on the Arbitrum Network using Orbiter Finance. Then, send the ETH to your exchange wallet. Finally, send the ETH back to Manta Network by repeating steps 3 to 4 above.

      Note this is extremely risky and not recommended for beginners. This is because you could face liquidation if you use maximum leverage because of the negative borrow APY.

    9. Participate in Manta’s Renew Paradigm

      Manta has recently launched its Renew Paradigm which offers double yield incentives for staking coins, combining various yields and fostering collaboration with partners. For Manta’s Renew Paradigm, 3 million $MANTA tokens are up for distribution. The Renew Paradigm will conclude at the end of April 2024.

      See our below section for a step by step guide on how to participate in Manta’s Renew Paradigm.

    10. Withdraw $STONE and $wUSDM from Manta’s New Paradigm

      The $STONE and $wUSDM withdraw feature will be available for Manta New Paradigm participants at 02:00 pm UTC/10:00 pm SGT on 26th March 2024. You can then choose to use the withdrawn tokens for Manta’s Renew Paradigm, see below.

    11. Understand the Manta Gas Gain airdrop campaign.

      The Manta Gas Gain airdrop campaign is that 50% of the gas profits from Manta Pacific (i.e. mainnet) will be converted to $MANTA tokens and shared among the top 400 participants with the highest points. More activity on Manta Pacific means more points and a higher chance to earn Manta rewards. This campaign will end on 30th November 2024.

    12. Engage with Manta Pacific

      Engage with Manta Pacific to accumulate more points. You can engage with Manta Pacific by completing more on-chain transactions. Manta Rewards are calculated based on the amount of tokens held in your addresses, your trading activity, engagement level, diversity and participation in Manta activities. The snapshot would be taken at the end of the current Circle on 30th November 2024. Note that referrals or additional boosts do not increase your points for this campaign.

    13. Make use of cheap transactions

      Manta Pacific uses Celestia as a settlement layer, making it very cheap to use. The gas cost is extremely low, essentially free. This means you can perform a high number of transactions without significant costs, boosting your chances to earn points.

    14. Leverage your NFTs

      If you hold a Golden Shovel NFT from completing the New Paradigm and Manta DeFi campaigns, you get extra points. Ensure you leverage any additional assets like these to improve your ranking.

    15. Social engagement

      Social engagement also helps boost your points, though the exact tracking mechanism isn’t clear yet. Stay active and engaged on social platforms as well.

    16. Track points

      Keep an eye on the scoreboard for the Manta Gas Gain campaign. Only the top 400 participants will receive the reward. Make sure to regularly check your ranking to see if you are within the top 400 participants.

    Manta $MANTA token airdrop eligibility criteria

    There are 2 main categories of Manta airdrop rewards: Airdrop Rewards and Airdrop Bonus Rewards.

    Airdrop Rewards

    Here are the different categories of users who will be eligible for the MANTA Airdrop Rewards and the eligibility criteria:

    MANTA Airdrop Rewards eligibility criteria

    Airdrop Bonus Rewards

    This is known as the Great Treasure Hunt where 20,000,000 $MANTA will be allocated as bonus rewards that can be obtained by supporters and users in the Manta ecosystem. The Airdrop Bonus Rewards campaign is ongoing and will end on 18th January 2024 at 11:59pm UTC.

    To get the Airdrop Bonus Rewards, you need to participate in the Great Treasure Hunt campaign. The Mysterious Treasure Chests contain 1 of 6 treasures hidden within the Manta Pacific. Each of the six NFTs you can obtain awards you with a piece of the total 20m $MANTA allocated for the Great Treasure Hunt campaign, while the Mystical Manta gives the largest allocation of that pool. When you discover that you have a treasure chest, you can open it immediately. Opening a treasure box will give you one of six different NFTs, each with a different rarity. If you are lucky enough to obtain all six NFTs from the Treasure Chests, you can combine them to create the legendary Mystical Manta NFT. The Mystical Manta, once just another manta ray in the waters, sparked life in the oceans of another dimension. It has since become an energy spirit, which only those truly worthy would catch a glimpse of. You can view your Treasure NFTs by connecting your wallet here.

    Manta Network airdrop review

    When reviewing an airdrop, there are several factors to consider. First, the likelihood the project will even do an airdrop in the first place. Then, to look at how many tokens the project intends to allocate towards airdrop campaigns, as well as the difficulty in participating in their airdrop. It is also important to look at the utility of the token so that there will be an actual use and purpose in participating in the airdrop in the first place. Finally, a factor to consider when reviewing an airdrop is whether the airdropped tokens are subject to any lockup period.

    Likelihood of airdrop: Manta Network airdrop is now live!

    Airdropped token allocation: Manta Network have confirmed they will airdrop 56 million MANTA tokens. 50 million MANTA will be distributed in the “Into the Blue” airdrop, and 6 million $MANTA will be distributed to participants in the Binance parachain auction.

    Airdrop difficulty: The Manta Network airdrop requires participants to bridge and deposit assets into the network. These tasks should not be difficult for those who are not complete beginners.

    Token utility: The Manta Network token will be a utility token and will be used as part of its rewards mechanism, governance and mining.

    Token lockup: The $MANTA token will be 100% unlocked at the token generation event.

    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

    I can’t see my Manta Network boxes or STONE tokens

    Make sure you are on the Manta Network on your MetaMask. You also need to have Ethereum on the Manta Network to pay any transaction fees e.g. when opening boxes.

    Do you have a Manta invite code?

    Enter our invite code G2YCS to join the Manta Network or simply sign up at https://newparadigm.manta.network/?inviteCode=G2YCS.

    What is the best and cheapest way to bridge to Manta Network?

    For the best and cheapest way to bridge to Manta Network, send ETH from your exchange account (we recommend Bybit, free sign up HERE) to MetaMask using the Arbitrum Network. Then use, version 2 of Orbiter Finance to bridge your ETH from Arbitrum to Manta Network. This will cost around $2 to $3 dollars in transaction fees plus a small withholding fee of around 20 cents. Whilst using the Ethereum network to transfer ETH costs around $40 to $50.

    When will the Manta Network bridging and box rewards end?

    According to our EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW with Manta Network Co-Founder Kenny Li, the Manta Network Bridging and Box rewards will end sometime in January 2024.

    Why haven’t I receieved my STONE and wUSDM rewards?

    You should receive your STONE and wUSDM rewards within 24 hours of your deposit. If you don’t see your STONE and wUSDM rewards, scan your wallet address on the Manta Pacific Explorer. Additionally, sometimes MetaMask may not automatically add the STONE and wUSDM token addresses to your MetaMask. In such case, you will need to manually add the token addresses in order to see your STONE and wUSDM balances.

    What is the difference between depositing and bridging on Manta Network?

    Depositing on Manta Network requires you to use the New Paradigm, this is the only way to qualify for the Manta Network airdrop. However, you can also deposit ETH on Manta to pay for transaction fees, and you can do this using other protocols such as Orbiter Finance. This may also position yourself for a potential Orbiter Finance airdrop!

    What is the USD+ token?

    USD+ is the main token of the Overnight protocol. It’s backed by assets that can quickly be turned into USDC. As a rebase token, it can gain value (positive rebase) when its backing assets are worth more than 100%, or lose value (negative rebase) when they are worth less. Profits are given to USD+ holders daily by increasing their wallet balance.

    How to get the Overnight Finance ($OVN) token airdrop?

    Here’s a guide on how to get the potential Overnight Finance ($OVN) token airdrop

    1. Connect to Overnight Finance

      Connect your wallet to Overnight Finance HERE.

    2. Check stats

      Go to the “Stats” tab. As USD+ is fully collateralized by USDC, so long as their collateral value is over 100% you will be earning rewards in USD+ through a rebase mechanism. Therefore, under the USD+ Portfolio section, check the figures under “Total” and “Total USD+ in circulation”. If the figure under “Total” is higher than the one under “Total USD+ in circulation”, you would be earning rewards through the rebase mechanism for your USD+. Also, check the daily APY figure to see what your rewards would be. Compare these figures under each of the supported chains to see which chain offers the best yields.

    3. Mint USD+ token

      To mint USD+, go to the Mint/Redeem tab and make sure the slider is on “Mint”. Select the network on the top right-hand corner. Choose between USDC and USDT tokens and the amount you wish to mint. Approve the transaction.

    4. Mint USD+ on Arbitrum

      Note that you would only qualify for the potential Overnight Finance ($OVN) token airdrop if you hold mint and hold USD+ on the Arbitrum network.

    5. Earn Points

      You will earn points for holding USD+ on the Arbitrum network, even if you USD+ is deposited into liquidity pools.

    6. Deposit USD+ into liquidity pools

      Go to the “Pools” tab and choose a liquidity pool. Click “Deposit” and switch to the chain the pool is on. Select the input tokens and approve the transaction. Please remember to do your own research before choosing a liquidity pool because there’s not just impermanent loss risk, but there’s also smart contract risk.

    Taiko Airdrop 200 IQ TRICK (Farm Mainnet for FREE)

    Taiko ($TKO) Airdrop Step-by-Step Guide

    Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to get a potential Taiko ($TKO) token airdrop:

    1. Add Taiko Network to MetaMask
    2. Claim Faucet Tokens
    3. Bridge Testnet Tokens
    4. Deploy a Smart Contract to Taiko A1
    5. Run a Node on Taiko
    6. Complete Galxe Tasks

    See below for more details.

    What is Taiko?

    Taiko is building a decentralized and Ethereum-equivalent (Type 1) ZK-EVM. Taiko’s goal is to scale Ethereum in a manner that emulates it as closely as possible – both technologically and ideologically. They have raised $22 million across two funding rounds and launched their latest testnet (Alpha-3) in their mission to build a decentralized and Ethereum-equivalent (Type 1) ZK-EVM.

    The Taiko alpha-3 testnet is the latest update and is a significant milestone on the journey towards a decentralized, Ethereum-equivalent ZK-EVM. This testnet will be critical in testing much of the network design and components. It’s also known as Grímsvötn. The primary purpose of the alpha-3 test network is to evaluate the economic design and implementation of new protocols, including new fee/reward structures.

    Technical Overview of Type-1 ZK-EVM

    Ethereum-equivalent ZK-Rollups, also known as ZK-EVMs, are the ideal layer-2 scaling solution as they do not sacrifice security or compatibility. Taiko aims to be a type-1 ZK-EVM, putting perfect EVM/Ethereum equivalence over ZK proof generation speed.

    The various types of ZK-EVMs can be distinguished by how closely they adhere to Ethereum’s architecture at the base layer, such as the Merkle Patricia Tree for the state trees, the execution client specification, and the gas costs for each opcode.

    Different types of ZK-EVMs (Source: Taiko Labs)

    These ZK-EVMs make compromises between compatibility and proof generation cost, with Type 1 ZK-EVMs prioritizing compatibility over cost. This type is also known as “Ethereum-equivalent” because it does not alter any aspect of the Ethereum architecture, including the hash function, state trees, and gas costs. This allows existing execution clients to be reused with minimal modifications.

    Who is the Team behind Taiko?

    Taiko Labs is co-founded by Daniel Wang, the founder and former CEO of Loopring — an EVM DEX protocol powered and scaled by zero-knowledge proof technology. In July 2022, Wang brought in Brecht Devos, his former Chief Architect at Loopring, to lead the project’s zero-knowledge research and development team. As of now, the company has more than twenty people across thirteen countries with most people having an engineering and cryptography background.

    Does Taiko have a Token?

    Yes, Taiko Labs confirmed it in their white paper that they will have a Taiko Token ($TKO). The protocol mints $TKO to reward block verifiers. The token is transparent to L2 users, providing a seamless user experience equivalent to that on the Ethereum chain.

    Users will pay transaction fees in ETH, and block proposers will receive these fees for each block they successfully propose. In return, block proposers must burn a certain amount of $TKO to participate in the protocol, and pay ETH to Ethereum validators for block inclusion in L1 blocks.

    Taiko Alpha-1 Testnet – Confirmed Airdrop Strategy

    Taiko launched their Alpha-1 Testnet in late December 2022. It consists of two networks: Taiko A1, a fully decentralized Ethereum-equivalent ZK-Rollup, and Ethereum A1, the latter serving as the L1 network. The testnet includes L1 and L2 nodes with the Taiko protocol contracts deployed and a mining interval of 12 seconds. In their user document, Taiko has a guide for what users can do in the testnet, which strongly hints at a potential airdrop strategy.

    On 22nd May 2024, Taiko ($TKO) launched its Phase 1 airdrop, with 5% of the initial token supply up for grabs!

    The best way to receive $TKO airdrop is to bridge tokens between Ethereum A1 and Taiko A1, deploy smart contracts, and run a node. Completing these steps puts you in a great position to be eligible for an airdrop. Here’s a step-by-step guide:

    1. Add Taiko Network to MetaMask

      You can automatically add Taiko A1 and Ethereum A2 to your MetaMask at their wallet configuration page. If it doesn’t work, you can instead manually add the networks at their RPC configuration page.

    2. Claim Faucet Tokens

      After adding the network to your MetaMask, you will need testnet tokens to interact with their protocol. Go to l1faucet.a1.taiko.xyz for Ethereum A1 ETH, and l2faucet.a1.taiko.xyz for Taiko A1 ETH. You will need to make a Tweet and put your wallet address in the post. Copy your Tweet’s link and paste on the request box as shown in the image below. This is to prevent bots from abusing the faucet.

    3. Bridge Testnet Tokens

      Now you can use the bridge to transfer assets between Ethereum A1 and Taiko A1. As a prerequisite, you will need some testnet ETH on either A1 networks. Some transfers may take a while, but you can check your transactions in their bridge contracts.

    4. Deploy a Smart Contract to Taiko A1

      You will need to install Foundry to deploy a smart contract on Taiko A1. You only need to have the private key to an account that has some ETH on Taiko A1 to pay the small transaction fee for deploying the contract. It should only take about 15 minutes. Taiko has a complete guide on this here.

    5. Run a Node on Taiko

      According to the team, this is the most important part of the testnet, as Taiko is a community-driven protocol. This step alone has the highest chance to get you qualified for a potential airdrop. The complete guide is on their user document. But if you are still confused, a contributor on their Discord channel posted a detailed guide on setting up a node for windows.

    Taiko Alpha-2 Testnet – Confirmed Airdrop Strategy

    Here’s how to potentially receive an airdrop in Taiko’s Alpha-2 Testnet:

    1. Add Sepolia и Taiko (Alpha2 Testnet) to Metamask.
    2. Claim testnet tokens using Sepolia Faucet and Horse/BLL.
    3. Add these 2 token contract addresses to your wallet: Bull Token — 0x6048e5ca54c021D39Cd33b63A44980132bcFA66d and Horse Token — 0xCea5BFE9542eDf828Ebc2ed054CA688f0224796f.
    4. Connect your wallet to Taiko bridge.
    5. Transfer tokens from Sepolia to Taiko A2. To do this, go to the “Bridge” tab, choose the Sepolia Network, and choose your token type and amount. Then, click on “Bridge”. Remember to also transfer the $HORSE and $BLL tokens!
    6. Transfer tokens from Taiko A2 to Sepolia. This is basically the same steps as point 5 above.

    How to Receive Potential $TKO Airdrop for Taiko Alpha-3 Testnet

    Here’s how to potentially receive an airdrop in Taiko’s Alpha-3 Testnet:

    1. Add Sepolia Network to Metamask.
    2. Add Taiko (Alpha-3 Testnet) to Metamask.
    3. Get Sepolia ETH at either https://sepolia-faucet.pk910.de, faucet-sepolia.rockx.com or sepoliafaucet.com.
    4. Connect your wallet to the Taiko Faucet and mint 50 Bull ($BLL) and 50 Horse ($HORSE) tokens. If you don’t see these tokens in your Metamask it may be because you have not added the token address. Click “Import tokens” on your Metamask and input the token details.
    5. Go to Taiko Bridge and bridge $ETH, $BLL and $HORSE from the Sepolia to Taiko network. You may need to increase the gas in order to avoid the transaction failing.
    6. Claim your transfer by going to the Transaction page and clicking “Claim”. Then, confirm the transaction on Metamask.
    7. Complete tasks on Taiko’s Galxe page. Tasks include answering their quizzes, bridging and swapping funds.

    Taiko Quiz Answers

    Here are the answers for the Taiko Quizzes on their Galxe page:

    Exclusive: How to farm Taiko Mainnet for free!

    Taiko is currently running Season 1 of their Trailblazers campaign which will end on 16th September 2024. As Taiko has launched its mainnet, you would usually need to use real funds to complete the tasks for the potential airdrop. However, with our EXCLUSIVE tips and tricks, you can farm the Taiko airdrop for FREE! Here’s how to farm the Taiko potential airdrop for free:

    • Connect wallet to https://crackandstack.com/
    • Play Crack & Stack. Crack & Stack is a PvP game that rewards you in ETH for mining as quickly as possible and avoiding the goblins. You have 10 free games per day.
    • With your earned ETH, transact on platforms such as World of Dypians and 0xAstra.
    • Transact on World of Dypians by claiming the free boxes.
    • Transact on 0xAstra by collecting daily logins.
    • You can also use the ETH earned in Crack & Stack to cover any transaction fees on Taiko mainnet. This way, you will not need to bridge your ETH to Taiko or deposit real funds to the platform.

    TIP: On Crack & Stack, the objective is to mine as fast as you can. However, do not be greedy until you have around 20 seconds on the timer as you want as much movement speed as you can. Your inventory space will start flashing yellow so your movement speed will be a little bit slower, but not slow enough for people to kill you. It also does not matter if you die in the game because you will still earn ETH on your wallet.

    Taiko token airdrop eligibility criteria?

    Taiko proposers, provers, bridgers, users (including Galxe users) and developers are eligible for the Taiko token airdrop. GitHub contributors and Loopring community members that meet the specified conditions are also eligible. Note however the activities are weighted and a score is assigned to them. You will only be eligible if you meet the minimum score and any conditions set by the Taiko team.

    How to check your eligibility for the Taiko token airdrop?

    Here’s how to check your eligibility for the Taiko token airdrop:

    1. Go to https://claim.taiko.xyz/
    2. Click “Check eligibility” at the top of the page
    3. Connect your wallet (e.g. MetaMask) and GitHub account, if any.
    4. Bind your wallet and GitHub account.

    Note that users have 7 days i.e. until 30th May 2024 to check their eligibility. Once the claim window is open, eligible users will have 1 month to claim their TKO tokens.

    Airdrop Review

    When reviewing an airdrop, there are several factors to consider. First, the likelihood the project will even do an airdrop in the first place. Then, to look at how many tokens the project intends to allocate towards airdrop campaigns, as well as the difficulty in participating in their airdrop. It is also important to look at the utility of the token so that there will be an actual use and purpose in participating in the airdrop in the first place. Finally, a factor to consider when reviewing an airdrop is whether the airdropped tokens are subject to any lockup period.

    Likelihood of Airdrop: Taiko has a guide for what users can do to interact with their testnet, which strongly hints at a potential airdrop strategy.

    Airdropped Token Allocation: Taiko confirmed they will have a token known as $TKO, but the tokenomics are unknown.

    Airdrop Difficulty: The latest Taiko Alpha-3 Testnet only requires you to use testnet funds to bridge, which is relatively simple. Deploying a smart contract and running a node on Taiko however, may need a bit more technical knowledge.

    Token Utility: The $TKO utility is unknown.

    Token Lockup: The $TKO token lockup is unknown.
