Eclipse cross-chain airdrop eligibility often requires bridging assets to its network for points/rewards. Bridge interaction steps: Visit app.eclipse.xyz/bridge. Connect EVM wallet (e.g., MetaMask) and Solana-compatible wallet (e.g., Backpack). Select source chain (prefer L2s for lower fees), choose ETH/USDC/etc. amount. Approve and confirm transfer (enough for multiple dApp interactions). Assets arrive on Eclipse; perform swaps, liquidity provision, or Turbo Tap for extra points. SVM compatibility attractiveness: As Ethereum's fastest L2, Eclipse leverages Solana VM for parallel execution, delivering high TPS (>8,000 peak), low fees, and seamless Solana dApp porting—while inheriting Ethereum's security, liquidity, and composability. This hybrid draws developers seeking scalable performance without ecosystem fragmentation.

Jupiter's annual "Jupuary" celebration airdropped 700 million JUP tokens in January 2025 to ~2 million wallets. Allocation breakdown: ~440M to users (tiered by trading volume, min ~$800 for 50 JUP) ~60M to stakers (bonuses for long-term holders and voters) Remaining for incentives ("Carrots" for holding/staking) and community contributors ("Good Cats"). This governance-approved distribution, decided via Jupiter DAO votes, boosts community engagement by rewarding active participation, staking, and voting—strengthening decentralization and long-term alignment in the Solana ecosystem.

Wormhole's initial airdrop distributed ~670M $W tokens in April 2024 to over 400K wallets based on prior cross-chain activity. Staking Program Guide: Visit w.wormhole.com dashboard or tally.xyz/gov/wormhole. Connect wallet (MetaMask for EVM, Phantom for Solana). If on Solana, use Native Token Transfers (NTT) to bridge $W to EVM chains (e.g., Base for low fees). Stake/delegate voting power—no lockup, flexible unstaking. Ongoing Staking Rewards Program (SRP) distributes incentives to active stakers. Cross-Chain UX Analysis: Seamless and secure via NTT (no liquidity pools/fragmentation). Low fees, fast transfers across 30+ chains enhance multichain governance/staking. Highly praised for intuitive dashboard and interoperability, reducing complexity/risk compared to traditional bridges.
