Crypto Airdrops to Claim in the First Week of February

Crypto markets are entering the second month of the year, with Bitcoin (BTC) price teasing further downside potential. As analysts brace for increased market swings, crypto airdrops might offer investors a way to benefit without upfront investments.

Airdrops distribute free tokens, often to gain followers and expand a project’s user base. Here are four notable airdrops worth keeping an eye on this week.

Buzz.Fun

Buzz.fun is the first Meme Coin Exchange (MCEX), changing the way tokens launch and trade. Built on a custom contract compiler, Buzz.fun ensures seamless deployment and unlocks advanced possibilities for creators, traders, and community members. The project has confirmed its airdrop, with its website indicating at least two more seasons.

“Buzz.Fun updated – soak it in. Phase 1, imminent – registrations opening soon. Tier 1 access codes dropping any moment,” the project said recently.

For the first, however, Buzz.fun is airdropping 20% of the supply to users who sign up and collect XPs. The airdrop details include:

• 20% of the total BUZZ token supply is allocated for airdrops.
• Users can earn BUZZ tokens by signing up, linking their Twitter and wallet, and collecting XPs.
• Additional XPs can be earned through referrals.
• Tokens will be distributed once BUZZ goes live.

According to the airdrops alert on X (Twitter), the MCEX platform will be used to create and trade memecoins. The airdrop farmer resource account on X also highlights that Buzz.fun runs rug-proof contracts with optimized bonding curves.

This ensures the stability and security of token pricing, which will increase in value as more are issued while reducing the risk of scams.

XOS

XOS is the first Layer 2 solution on Solana, designed to enhance scalability and performance while maintaining cost efficiency. It supports various blockchain sectors, including GameFi, DeFi, and Web3 applications.

By processing transactions off-chain before securing them on the Solana mainnet, XOS balances scalability and security. After a $55 million raise, XOS has also confirmed its airdrop. The XOS airdrop details include:

• XOS has launched an Early Access Airdrop program.
• 20% allocated to the community.
• Users earn rewards through daily check-ins, referrals, and team-building activities.
• A points-based system determines rewards, which will be converted to XOS tokens during the Token Generation Event (TGE).
• The conversion rate will be announced closer to the distribution date.

Of note is that the TGE will happen in June, three months after the testnet goes live in March. All points accumulated through the Early Access Airdrop program during the TGE will be proportionally converted into XOS tokens.

Another crypto airdrop to watch this week is MetaBrawl, which merges blockchain technology with competitive fighting game mechanics. Players battle using crypto-inspired characters and NFTs, earning rewards through skilled gameplay and community participation.

Although the airdrop is confirmed, the tiered point-based campaign ends on February 20, 2025.

“MetaBrawl has launched an airdrop of their BRAWL token that will run until February 20th, 2025,” airdrop researcher Dr. Tanvi confirmed.

In the meantime, participants can maximize rewards with daily engagement tasks, community participation, and the referral program. After completing specified social tasks, participants should purchase some BRAWL tokens. Specific airdrop details include:

• The game operates within the BRAWL token ecosystem.
• $25,000 worth of BRAWL tokens – 50 lucky winners
• Players can earn rewards by participating in battles and engaging with the community.
• Participants must refer up to 20 friends to maximize rewards.

NFT ownership in this project integrates with gameplay achievements, adding tangible value to in-game assets. Unique NFT characters have thrilling combat skills. The project also plans a Metabrawl AI bot to provide a better user experience and customer support.

“This game changer will allow us to keep our support and main groups under control with our own AI agent moderator,” the project shared in a post.

Venice

Venice is a decentralized AI platform built on the Base network, offering text, image, and code generation services while prioritizing user privacy. Unlike traditional AI platforms, Venice processes all data locally on users’ devices, ensuring enhanced security.

The project also confirmed its airdrop, with Venice.ai founder Erik Voorhees recently acknowledging the contribution of early participants.

“Dear Venice.ai users, thank you for pioneering with us. At current prices, $250,000,000 has been airdropped to over 150,000 of you,” Voorhees wrote.

Indeed, 25% of the supply is given to the community for platform users after a snapshot date on December 31. The claim window closes on March 13, 2025. Additional distributions are allocated to holders of AI-related tokens on Base, such as Virtuals, Aerodrome, and Degen.

Meanwhile, DeFi researcher Nova Hunter reported that recipients comprised holders of AI tokens such as VIRTUALS, AERO, and LUNA, among others. The airdrop details include:

• 50% of the total VVV token supply is allocated for airdrops.
• 25 million VVV tokens are reserved for Venice platform users.
• Another 25 million VVV tokens are allocated to participants in the crypto and AI ecosystem on Base.
• Eligibility requires earning at least 30 points and maintaining an active account since October 1, 2024.

These crypto airdrops provide an exciting opportunity for crypto enthusiasts to engage with emerging projects while earning free tokens. Nevertheless, investors must also conduct their own research.
