Everyone this week is talking about the FED, interest rates, and the macroeconomic
environment crypto is living in….but no one is continually bringing you that sweet, sweet
cryptocurrency alpha…except Chico Crypto. Even in the depths of the bear market we are searching,
scouring, and uncovering what others are too blinded to see. So are you ready for
our dose of alpha. Well you don’t really have a choice…because it’s time for Chico Crypto…
Crypto alpha…this comes in many forms…but the form I specialize in…is deep research
which puts the puzzle pieces together…and the pieces that the majority of people do not see…
One are of my focus has been on Airdrops. I’ve called the majority of the big ones in the
space…far before they happened. Uniswap, DyDx, and even more recently Optimism….
But right now….it’s time to RING THE Airdrop alarm…as
I think the biggest one of the year will be happening
very soon….and the Chico Army will be prepared like no other…
First what Airdrop is this??? Well I have a feeling the Arbitrum airdrop
is coming sometime this Fall and it could happen at any time now…
Why??? Well just last month…the Arbitrum twitter put out a tweet thread of all
the big stuff happening within their ecosystem…and at the very end of the
thread they said “And remember frens, A is for Arbitrum. A is for Autumn.”
So something BIG is coming in from Arbitrum in Autumn…which
begins tomorrow the 22nd of September. You know what A is also for?? Airdrop….
And then some of the arbitrum team members' social accounts are starting to go into hint mode…
Hunter @BFreshHB is a community lead at Arbitrum and they tweeted just “big eyes” yesterday…
Then SizeChad, lead of NFTs and gaming at Arbitrum tweeted this 2 days ago…“Big
news to come @arbitrum”...of which Hunter retweeted and said “the leakooooorrr”....
Are they hinting about an Airdrop!!?? Well if I had to guess….I would say YES!!
So today we are going to provide the ULTIMATE guide on how to get
in the best position to obtain this airdrop.
So #1….did you hear about Arbitrum Odyssey over the summer?? Well Zerion put out a great
article on this titled “Arbitrum Airdrop Guide: Maximize Your Chances With Arbitrum
Odyssey” and from the article they explain it. They say “Arbitrum
Odyssey is a multi-week initiative for exploring the Arbitrum ecosystem with exclusive NFTs as
rewards. Of course, no Arbitrum airdrop is promised. But it would make sense:
all participants would be using Arbitrum and could later be easily identified through holding NFTs.”
Well after just 1 week of the Odyssey campaign…it was put on pause…but a week did happen where one
NFT was released to those who explored and met the conditions. Here is the first Odyssey NFT…
So in my opinion, having this NFT…and the others to come with the Odyssey resuming soon,
will put you in the best position to receive a possible Arbi airdrop…
But what if you can’t claim it? You didn’t do the required task or condition to receive it??
Well you can actually pick up the NFT on an arbitrum based NFT marketplace,
Stratos…and as we can see, it’s just .0024 of an Ethereum…or only 3 dollars and 25 cents.
Now going back to Arbitrum’s tweet about the Odyssey pause,
we can see they say they would Resume Odyssey with the launch of Arbitrum Nitro…
Well August 31st, Arbitrum announced that Nitro had launched and in the article they say “Even
with Nitro fully online on both Arbitrum One and Nova, the Arbitrum story is just
beginning. We’ve got a lot in the hopper, and all of our future work is centered on continuing to
push the envelopes of security, efficiency, and scalability with you — the community!”
See how they focus on “community”...there is no better way to reward a community than with an
airdrop…but at the bottom of the article they once again say “A is for Arbitrum. A is for Autumn.”
Remember A is also for Aidrop…but since Nitro is launched…Arbitrum Odyssey will be resuming anytime
now…and you can get yourself ready right now…to receive the week 2 NFTs!! There is the Blueberry
Nebula, which we can see is paused for Nitro…but if click below who is eligible…we can see what
the tasks are to receive this Odyssey NFT…there are 3…number 1 make a leveraged trade on GMX,
number 2 be a liquidity provider on GMX by minting GLP, and number 3 do a spot swap on GMX trade.
You can do all of that right now, and when Odyssey resumes,
you will automatically be eligible to receive this NFT which could boost airdrop rewards…
But there is also another Odyssey NFT which was paused for Nitro… this is the Arrival
on the Penumbra and it focuses on Task’s with Yield Protocol…checking out the tasks…there
are also 3…number 1: Provide liquidity of $50 or above worth of assets to any
maturity series via the yield protocol app. Number 2: Lend $50 or above worth of assets
to any maturity series via Yield Protocol Lend, and Number 3: Borrow $100 or above
worth of assets using supported collateral for any maturity series via Yield Protocol Borrow.
Again, you can do all of this right now, and when Odyssey resumes,
you will automatically be able to mint this NFT which could boost airdrop rewards.
Now I’ve covered this one before, but Arbitrum has a series of quests on Guild.xyz of which
you can complete to earn special roles in their Discord server. To earn the roles,
you just complete simple tasks which usually just require you to hold an
extremely small amount of tokens, of an Arbitrum ecosystem project….of course I
would do as many of the tasks and earn as many roles as possible…
So what else could you do to best position yourself for the Arbitrum Airdrop?? Well a
Mingo Airdrop on Twitter has a great thread on this. He says “Arbitrum airdrop could
happen earlier than you expect. For you, I've analyzed what could be the best airdrop of 2022,
and how you can maximize your chances of catching it…he gives his reasons for airdrop happening,
including the important one…what co-founder of Arbitrum Steven Goldfeder tweeted after
the Optimism Airdrop happened….he tweeted “The appetizer is always served before the
main course”...which of course is a big hint, as Optimism is Arbitrum’s biggest competitor…
But now let’s get into Mingo’s criteria for the airdrop. Number 1 they say you should vote on
Aribitrum Odyssey snapshots, which with the resumption of Odyssey soon, you will
have the opportunity…Number 2 have participated in Arbitrum Odyssey and have at least x NFTs from the
event…well I showed you how to get the first one, and the next 2….when it resumes, get the others..
Number 3, have used the Arbitrum bridge in the first month of Arbitrum…well that one has come
and gone, but many of you just might have, as I’ve been telling my subs to bridge for a LONG time…
Number 4, have made at least 5 swaps…well if you didn’t know, you can use Uniswap,
1inch, and Sushiswap all on Arbitrum…and GMX even has a spot swapper. But there
are other’s like Kyberswap too. I would perform a swap on all 5…
Number 5, have used the chain for at least 4 to 8
different weeks…which I’m sure many of you have…even before Arbitrum Odyssey.
Number 6 Have an NFT on Arbitrum, well if you pick up Week 1’s Arbitrum
Odyssey NFT…then you definitely have one.
Number 7 have signed a multisig on Arbitrum. You
can do that with Gnosis Safe, who has launched on Arbitrum…
Number 7, have made a Gitcoin Grant Donation on L1, number 8 voting on L1 protocol Snapshots
(possibly those on Both Ethereum and Aritrum like Uniswap, Sushi and 1inch.
Number 8 Have at least x transactions on ETH, number 9 have bridged to other chains,
number 10 have completed the guild quests we covered earlier, number 10 have been active
before Arbitrum Odyssey was announced, and finally number 11 have used Arbitrum
Nova..which is just a high speed precursor to Nitro…I’ve included it in the description.
Actually everything I’ve talked about in this video is down in description. All links to all
Odyssey NFTs, the guild quests, and anything Migo Airdrop brought up…I linked. Get going,
because A is Aribtirum. A is for Autumn. A is for Airdrop…Cheers I’ll see you next time!
