FAQ
Q: How do I know when an airdrop snapshot will happen?
A: Most projects don't announce snapshots in advance. That's why consistent farming over months is the best strategy.
Q: Should I focus on confirmed or rumored airdrops?
A: Both. Confirmed airdrops guarantee a token, but rumored ones often have less competition (and sometimes bigger rewards).
Q: How many upcoming airdrops should I farm?
A: Aim for 5-10 simultaneously. Our farming guide shows you how to do this efficiently in under 2 hours per week.
