Want to live on crypto’s bleeding edge by testing early-stage blockchain apps? Do you also enjoy free money? If you answered “yes” to both of these questions, airdrop hunting may be the activity for you!

The Bankless team is on constant airdrop watch, surfacing the most promising plays and delivering them straight to subscribers every month. We compile this alpha inside Airdrop Hunter, where you can find nearly 200 curated opportunities with step-by-step hunting guides.

Today, we’re spotlighting five early-stage crypto applications for the month of March with potential airdrop upside that you can hunt right now. 👇

💨 Tramplin

Website | Twitter

Tramplin is a non-custodial staking platform for Solana that gamifies the normally boring activity of staking with inspiration from “premium bonds,” a time-tested financial innovation in which yield is pooled and redistributed randomly as prizes (think PoolTogether for SOL staking).

Tramplin has an ongoing points program that rewards users for staking and referring others to the platform (users must maintain at least 1 SOL staked in Tramplin at all times to maintain referral code eligibility).

By accumulating points, depositors increase their odds of receiving staking redistribution rewards. Small staking reward distributions occur every 10 minutes, with a larger jackpot-style distribution once per month.

Additionally, although unconfirmed at this time, Tramplin points could possibly serve as eligibility criteria for a future airdrop distribution.

🎱 Cue

Website | Twitter

Cue is an upstart prediction marketplace on Solana for opinion and culture, where timing and trend following matters more than size.

Unlike popular prediction market alternatives like Polymarket and Kalshi, there are no objectively wrong answers on Cue. Winning answers are determined by which side has more committed capital to buy shares by the end of the market's time limit.

To compensate for the increased uncertainty faced by early participants in newly launched markets, Cue is designed so early buyers receive more shares per dollar spent than bettors who enter later. Once a pre-set time limit is reached, Cue resolves the market and distributes the prize pool proportionally among winning shareholders.

Cue has an ongoing XP campaign that rewards users for making predictions and being correct. Although unconfirmed, it is possible that XP will convert into airdrop eligibility at a later date.

🪨 StakeStone

Website | Twitter

StakeStone is a crypto-native neo bank that issues yield-bearing versions of USD (STONEUSD), BTC (STONEBTC), and ETH (STONE).

Similar to Ethena, STONEUSD is a tokenized fund that achieves a dollar peg and generates yield through market-neutral funding rate strategies. STONE is a yield-bearing liquid staking token that deploys capital to leading staking protocols (including Lido and EigenCloud), while STONEBTC earns yield from BTC staking protocols Stacks and Lombard.

The STO token is the native utility and governance token of the StakeStone ecosystem. Although StakeStone previously conducted an initial airdrop in 2025, its tokenomics reserve 18% of supply for community incentive, hinting at the possibility of another future airdrop.

💸 PolyPay

Website | Twitter

PolyPay is a privacy-focused payroll multisig platform built on Horizen, an L3 blockchain built on Base that is designed for privacy-first, regulatory-compliant applications.

By leveraging zkVerify (an ultra-fast, zero-knowledge, and universal verification layer) PolyPay enables individuals, teams, and DAOs to create multisig accounts and manage shared funds while benefiting from the privacy and security guarantees of Horizen and zkVerify technology.

PolyPay rewards users with 100 XP for creating an account and 50 XP for making transactions. Top users on the weekly leaderboard are also eligible for rewards through periodic campaigns.

Although unconfirmed, these points may serve as a precursor to a future token airdrop, as protocols often use points-based systems to identify and reward early adopters.

🔊 Decibel

Website | Twitter

Decibel is an Aptos Labs-incubated perpetuals exchange that recently deployed to mainnet on February 26.

Although order matching, settlement and margin logic is executed onchain via smart contracts on Aptos, Decibel supports seamless multi-chain account funding from Aptos, Ethereum, Solana, and centralized exchanges.

The platform uses a proprietary Bridge-issued, dollar-denominated stablecoin called “usDCBL” as default trading collateral. Decibel plans to add spot markets, multi-collateral accounts, and tokenized real-world assets over time.

Decibel has an ongoing points program that rewards users for trading, depositing to liquidity provider vaults, and engaging with its referral system. While unconfirmed at this time, it is possible these points could convert into airdrop eligibility.
