Today, we’re recommending 5 must-hunt airdrops for the month of July 👇
💊 pump.fun
As the premier memecoin launchpad on Solana, pump.fun provides users with a seamless and efficient way to engage with the vibrant world of memecoins.
This no-code platform allows users to launch memecoins with zero technical experience and provides a unified interface for traders to ape freshly launched gems. Pump.fun charges a 1% platform fee for buys and sells on ungraduated tokens that have not achieved a $100k market capitalization. It also gives token creators 0.05% of all trade fees.
In March, pump.fun launched pump.swap, a proprietary decentralized exchange to host the liquidity for graduated tokens that charges a 0.3% fee on all trades.
Two sources confirmed to Blockworks in June that pump.fun intends to raise $1B via token sale, and subsequent reporting from The Block indicates that a forthcoming PUMP token would have revenue sharing mechanics and be distributed via airdrop.
🤖 Nansen
Nansen is a leading crypto analytics platform that leverages proprietary data labeling, unique datasets, and comprehensive multi-chain coverage. The resulting data trove provides onchain sleuths with the types of holistic blockchain insights needed to gain a competitive edge in dynamic crypto markets.
Following its successful acquisition of Stakewithus, Nansen began offering staking services through its core analytics in September 2024. Nearly 30 crypto assets can now be staked with Nansen, including HYPE, TRX, SOL, and SUI.
On June 17, 2025, Nansen formally introduced its Nansen Points loyalty program, which rewards users with "NXP" and will operate across multiple seasons, the first of which is ongoing until September 30, 2025.
While NXP recipients are only promised "rewards" (like discounted access to crypto analytics platforms and services) at this time, it is possible that NXP converts into fungible tokens at a future date. Nansen users can earn points by subscribing to Nansen, staking with Nansen, referring others to Nansen, and completing NXP quests.
🏃♂️ Sonic
The evolution of the Fantom ecosystem, Sonic is an EVM-compatible L1 blockchain that aims to provide high performance and low transaction costs for onchain transactions. Sonic plays host to a variety of bluechip decentralized applications, such as Aave, Pendle, and Curve.
On June 18, Sonic Labs announced a second points season to distribute S rewards. In this season, Sonic users can only earn points by actively engaging with applications, with loyalty multipliers introduced for users who participated in the first season of airdrop incentives.
You can directly earn points by engaging with whitelisted applications and boost your potential allocation with “Gems” from participating applications. Check out the Sonic Season 2 airdrop blog for more details and to view points category multipliers for whitelisted apps.
✒️ Ink
Kraken’s Ink L2 recently confirmed its plans to release a token, announcing June 18 that it will soon mint a fixed supply of 1B INK. A portion of these tokens will be distributed as rewards to users of an Aave-powered “liquidity protocol” that will “provide a new critical building block in Ink’s DeFi stack, governed and incentivized through the INK token.”
Although the initial announcement offered few details, it is clear that INK token use cases will be limited to incentives; the project firmly denied any possibility holders will receive L2 governance powers in multiple posts. Further information on the INK liquidity protocol airdrop and other potential airdrops for early ecosystem users will be shared at a later date.
🌑 Eclipse
Eclipse is an L2 that settles to Ethereum and uses ETH as a gas token, but deviates from traditional L2 standards by utilizing the Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) instead of the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) for execution. The rollup sources data availability from Celestia to lower transaction costs for end users.
By taking advantage of Solana's performance and combining it with the security, verifiability, and network effects that only Ethereum's rollup-centric roadmap can provide, Eclipse hopes to create a general-purpose L2 capable of truly massive scale.
The Eclipse Foundation confirmed on June 25, 2024, that it will soon publish tokenomics and airdrop information for its ES token. According to this announcement, additional airdrop allocation checker and TGE information can be expected in the near future.
