Jupiter is the father of Airdrops! Jupuary 2026 is already confirmed with another 700M JUP which makes it one of the biggest Airdrops

This year my focus in on swaps, mobile wallet, perps and Jupiter studio

Creating content could help too

legendary - @Backpack

Backpack acquired FTX EU for over $30 million

Founders are exceptional, and they'll do everything they can to make Backpack Exchange one of the best in the world!

top - @MeteoraAG

Meteora announced that they took the snapshot for S1. Current fees and points count towards S2

S2 will be smaller, but if you can make money with DLMM or DAMM, it will still be a very good stimmy as the FDV will be above $1B

top - @LoopscaleLabs

Currently the best DeFi protocol on Solana for passive income. Backed by Solana and Coinbase ventures (raised undisclosed amount of $)

Loop SOL and more to farm max points (gives you much more points than just lending)

Use code: SAWc5 (https://loop.sl/i/SAWc5)

top - @hylo_so

Hylo offers the highest yield on stablecoins on Solana at 17.13% a no-brainer!

You can also long SOL without the risk of liquidation (amazing tek)

Use this code to access the private Beta: FABIANO

S2 Airdrop is just slightly smaller than the initial Airdrop (2.1%). It's an amazing reward for just depositing USDC and earning 10% yield

I swap some of my PST for PT-PST-2510 on RateX and loop it on Loopscale to farm 2-in-1 Airdrop

top - @RateX_Dex

Last July, RateX secured funding from various VCs, including GSR, KuCoin Ventures, Animoca, and others and they also have their own points system

This is the place where you get 2-in-1 Airdrops for practically every asset you hold there (PST, Perena, etc.)

Use: https://app.rate-x.io/referral?ref=tOIqfame

could cook - @solanamobile

It's relatively calm around the Seeker phone but with shipping just around 1 month away I can see Airdrops coming soon (airdropping to Seeker holders is pretty cheap marketing) + we have the $SKR token

Reasons enough for me to order a few devices

could cook - @dawninternet

DAWN is a decentralized wireless network for internet service. Their vision is to decentralize the internet DAWN is well-funded by popular VCs and is free to farm

cold cook - @SwitchboardFDN

One of the biggest multichain oracles without a token yet (expect TGE in 2025/2026)

Raised $11M and have support from Solana Ventures

You could farm Orbs which ended. For now you can restake SOL via Fragmetric to earn SWTCH tokens

could cook - @Perena__

Perena built Numéraire, designed for capital-efficient stablecoin markets (best place for swaps). I use USD* in RateX and Exponent

Raised $3M in a pre-seed round (from Binance Labs and support from Solana)

S1 coming soon (use Code: AUFAFK)

could cook - @ExponentFinance

Another major yield exchange offering numerous 2-in-1 airdrops as an added bonus. It's a no-brainer

They raised $2M

Used it for Perena and MLP (Meteora farming)

good - @theblessnetwork

People call this the next Grass

Yes, it's free but quite conservative with DePin airdrops, as everyone and their mom is farming this. Expect peanuts if you don't have refs

It's a solid product though, backed by Solana and well-funded

Use code: PNPWBV

good - @TradeNeutral

Neutral Trade offers some of the highest APYs with their vaults (up to 80% at some point)

Neutral Trade recently announced their $2M fundraising. They also have their own points system, so we can likely expect a token at some point

good - @KASTcard

Kast is very convenient! Physical and digital Visa cards starting at $20/year

Earn points and qualify for their Airdrop (Q4?)

good - @RainFi_

Everyone who wants to earn more through lending should switch to P2P lending like that offered by RainFi

Lend and borrow to earn droplets!

This is one of the airdrops where you can make money while farming even tho point system is ongoing for some time

good - @playsolana

Play Solana will launch the first physical gaming device for Solana

This device includes a hardware wallet and Wi-Fi, allowing you to play all Solana games directly on it

good - @ranger_finance

Ranger is the #1 Perps aggregator on Solana which will always find you the best and cheapest route

Just two weeks ago they introduced Ranger Points: Season 1

Raised over $5.9M, backed by big VCs

good - @Titan_Exchange

Titan finds you the best route for your swaps (Jupiter competitor)

Team is really packed and can't harm to swap through them. Currently they're still in Beta

Use code: CC3AHTXI

Nice to have - @theblessnetwork

Free DePin Airdrop again. Probably you saw all the AI-generated content for their Kaito campaign

Apparently 4M people are farming Bless:

nice to have - @MayanFinance

Mayan Finance raised over $3M and is a part of the Wormhole ecosystem

That's also the reason why I'm not that bullish anymore...

You can bridge tokens between different chains. Use it once daily. Don't overfarm (learn from wormhole)

nice to have - @_bulktrade

People are already calling this the next biggest DeFi platform on Solana, at least in terms of its amazing UI

It could climb much higher in this space during the next months

Currently, it's invite-only

Pipe Network (@pipenetwork) may be flying under the radar, but it has raised $10M. from Multicoin Capital, Solana Ventures, Toly, and others

Pipe Network, aka Permissionless Labs, is backed by Solana and even held a keynote at the last Breakpoint, enhancing its credibility

Run their node

nice to have - @grass

Grass S2 is on for a few months already and I still think Grass remains the premier DePin project on Solana

So even S2 could be rewarding - Delegate/Stake your GRASS and keep your node running
