Three projects are launching enticing crypto airdrops this week, offering investors a chance to get in on the ground floor without any initial financial investment.

Airdrop farmers can capitalize on the following participation opportunities with renowned investors backing these three projects.

Chaos Labs

Chaos Labs is a blockchain risk management and optimization platform. It is one of the key players in DeFi protocol security and has raised $79 million across two funding rounds. Key backers include Galaxy, Coinbase Ventures, and HashKey Capital.

According to data on Cryptorank.io, Chaos Labs confirmed its airdrop. It offers participants a chance to join its whitelist while the project is still on the ground floor. While the reward date is pending, Chaos Labs announced a new AI model built for the crypto community. Users can already sign up on the waitlist and get early access to the product.

“Built on years of proprietary data from securing trillions in trading volume, Chaos AI transforms fragmented market data into institutional-grade financial intelligence,” Chaos Labs shared.

Airdrop farmers should focus on interacting with Chaos Labs’ tools, such as its risk dashboards or simulation platforms, if accessible via testnets or partnerships. Joining their Discord or Twitter communities is critical to staying updated on whitelist opportunities or tasks, considering social engagement is often a prerequisite.

Given its $20 million seed round in 2023 led by Galaxy Digital, Chaos Labs might retroactively reward users of supported protocols like Aave or Uniswap. Farmers should diversify activity across these ecosystems, track announcements, and be cautious of scams—only official channels should be trusted for task details.

Monad

Monad, an EVM-compatible Layer-1 (L1) blockchain, launched its testnet on February 19, 2025. It is a hot prospect for crypto airdrop farmers. With $244 million raised from Paradigm and others, Monad’s anticipated mainnet (potentially Q1 2025) could include a token drop for early adopters.

Farmers must join the Monad Discord, as securing the “Full Access” role earns 5 MON test tokens. Meanwhile, holding 0.01 ETH on the Ethereum mainnet nets two tokens. Testnet participation, like minting NFTs on monadverse.land (200,000 supply) or completing tasks on layer3.xyz is key.

Users should also regularly check Magic Eden’s Monad testnet for new mints and use Talentum.id (code NS12G) for ecosystem tasks. Activity level determines rewards, so consistent engagement is essential. Farmers should monitor official updates for mainnet and token launch timelines, as early participation often correlates with bigger airdrops. Wallet setups such as Metamask and testnet activity tracking are imperative.

“Also pay attention to these projects from the Monad ecosystem, which we added in a separate guide: Kintsu, Magma, and FastLane,” Cryptorank.io highlighted.

Voltix

Voltix is a Solana-based project that leverages idle CPU power for AI and DePIN (decentralized physical infrastructure networks). After raising $10 million from BLCK Labs, the project confirmed a VOLT token airdrop.

For farmers, the focus is on earning points via the Voltix browser extension before the Token Generation Event (TGE) date. Install the extension, contribute computing resources, and complete social tasks to rack up points, which are convertible to VOLT at TGE.

More CPU uptime and better hardware boost rewards mean running Voltix on multiple devices can help maximize gains. Farmers should log into the Voltix dashboard regularly for new tasks and join community channels for bonus opportunities.

The airdrop favors early adopters, so starting early is critical. No exact distribution timeline exists yet, meaning vigilance on official Voltix announcements is necessary.

Airdrop farmers should act swiftly, diversify efforts, and stay informed via official sources to capitalize on these opportunities. Nevertheless, they must also conduct their research.

YZi Labs (formerly Binance Labs) has announced its investment in Plume Network (PLUME). It is a fully integrated, Layer 2 modular blockchain designed for the rapid adoption and integration of real-world assets (RWAs).

The investment marks a significant step in advancing blockchain infrastructure that seamlessly bridges traditional finance with decentralized finance (DeFi), further expanding the Real World Asset Finance (RWAfi) ecosystem.

YZi Labs Backs Plume Network to Grow RWAfi Ecosystem

In a press release shared with BeInCrypto, YZi Labs’ Investment Director Max Coniglio emphasized the strategic importance of the investment. He highlighted Plume’s potential to revolutionize RWA adoption.

“At YZi Labs, we invest in projects that harness blockchain technology to create real-world impact and Plume is a prime example—they are bringing real-world assets on-chain to unlock new capital, expand access, and drive adoption. By making RWAs as seamless as any other digital asset, Plume is bridging traditional finance and DeFi, paving the way for broader adoption,” Coniglio told BeInCrypto.

Notably, Plume Network provides an Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM)-compatible environment that facilitates onboarding a wide range of assets. These include financial instruments, carbon credits, GPUs, and collectibles. Additionally, it seamlessly integrates these assets into a composable RWAfi ecosystem, enhancing their utility and enabling broader financial interactions.

Through its composable ecosystem, Plume enables users to earn rewards, trade, borrow, lend, swap, and engage in market speculation. By integrating real-world assets on-chain, Plume ensures they are as accessible and user-friendly as traditional crypto tokens.

Meanwhile, Chris Yin, co-founder and CEO of Plume, stressed that the platform aims to address the longstanding infrastructure gap that has hindered the widespread adoption of RWAs in the crypto space. 

“Although stablecoins, the original RWA, have successfully proven to onboard new users into crypto, the rest of RWAs have struggled to achieve the same traction. With Plume, asset issuers of all kinds can become Web3 builders, seamlessly connecting to our community, ecosystem, and liquidity,” Yin said.

YZi Labs’ investment comes at a time when RWAs have emerged as one of the fastest-growing sectors in crypto. According to the data from DefiLlama, RWA’s total value locked (TVL) reached an all-time high of $9.9 billion last week.

Moreover, the RWA sector has emerged as the best-performing category over the past year, surging by an impressive 237.2%. 

In contrast, the broader crypto market has experienced mixed results, with some sectors suffering deep losses. While Bitcoin (BTC) has gained 22.2% and privacy coins have risen by 28.2%, their growth pales in comparison to the explosive rise of real-world assets. Meanwhile, Ethereum (ETH) has dropped by 47.7%, and the decentralized finance (DeFi) sector has struggled even more with a 55.8% decline.

Despite its strong yearly performance, the RWA has faced a recent pullback. Month-to-date (MTD) sector performance data shows a -12.1% decline, suggesting a correction following its rapid growth. Bitcoin and Ethereum also posted losses, indicating a broader market downturn rather than an RWA-specific issue.

Solana (SOL) has faced a recent decline, struggling to regain momentum despite multiple attempts at recovery. The altcoin is currently aiming to breach the $180 resistance level, which has remained a key hurdle. 

While long-term holders (LTHs) are supporting the price, SOL still needs stronger momentum to break past this critical level.  

Solana Investors Are Hopeful

The HODLer Net Position Change metric indicates that Solana holders are rebuying the SOL they previously sold. Over the past week alone, long-term holders have accumulated more than 1 million SOL, worth approximately $128 million. This buying activity signals confidence among investors who anticipate a recovery in Solana’s price.  

Historically, increased accumulation by long-term holders has been a bullish sign. As these investors continue buying at lower price levels, it reinforces support and reduces the chances of sharp declines. If this trend continues, it could create the necessary foundation for Solana to attempt another breakout.  

From a technical perspective, Solana is showing signs of improving momentum. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) has been trending upward, indicating a potential shift toward bullish sentiment. However, for confirmation, the RSI needs to breach the neutral 50.0 level and turn it into support.  

A rising RSI suggests growing buying pressure, which could help SOL regain lost ground. This would increase the likelihood of Solana making another attempt at breaking its key resistance levels.  

SOL Price Recovery Remains Uncertain

Solana is currently trading at $128, and the crypto token’s price is down by 5.5% in the last 24 hours. Despite the decline, SOL is holding above the $126 support level while attempting to breach the $135 resistance. The long-term target remains at $180, a crucial milestone for bullish confirmation.  

Breaking past $180 has been a challenge, with Solana failing to attempt it in recent weeks. To reach this level, SOL would need to rally 40%, which becomes more achievable if it first breaches $161. Sustained buying pressure and improving market sentiment could help facilitate this move.  

On the downside, if Solana fails to breach $148 or struggles to move past $135, it could lose its current support levels. A drop below $126 and $118 would expose SOL to further declines, potentially testing $109. This scenario would invalidate the bullish outlook and shift momentum back to the bears.
