As various long-dormant projects gradually issue tokens, the market's interest in airdrops has been reignited.

The wealth creation effects of major projects like Movement, Magic Eden, and Pudgy Penguins have fully stimulated market expectations for this round of token issuance, leading people to focus on high-quality projects that are about to launch tokens.

Among the many projects yet to issue tokens, Monad, a leading L1 blockchain with a parallel EVM narrative, is undoubtedly one of the most anticipated star projects in the market. The massive $244 million financing has also heightened expectations for Monad's mainnet launch.

On December 17, Monad announced the establishment of a foundation, further increasing market anticipation for Monad's upcoming token issuance. With the official testnet yet to be launched, paying early attention to and participating in projects related to Monad, both within and outside its ecosystem, may allow one to benefit when the mainnet goes live.

Currently, there are many officially announced projects that will build on Monad, many of which are cross-chain, as well as several that are native. Given that there are already many introductions or reviews of Monad ecosystem projects on the market.

This time, the Deep Tide TechFlow editorial team has organized some Monad native projects and potential participation methods for readers' reference.

The specifics are as follows; we will select some projects for interpretation and keep updating them over time.

Monad Testnet is about to launch, how to participate in ecosystem construction in advance?

Project Introduction

1. DeFi Facilities

aPriori - Liquidity Staking Platform

aPriori is a MEV-driven liquidity staking platform native to the Monad ecosystem, aimed at optimizing Monad's network performance and user experience by developing new MEV and liquidity staking architectures. Its innovative probabilistic verification design significantly reduces latency and maximizes compatibility with Monad's high performance.

After several rounds of financing, aPriori has raised a total of $10.7 million.

The team members come from the professional trading field, with founder Ray S. having previously worked at Jump Crypto and Flow Traders, and also participating as an ecosystem contributor in the construction of Pyth Network. Co-Founder Olivia Z was a senior software engineer at Coinbase.

Participation Method:

Previously, aPriori officially released the first community task, which is to post creative articles, videos, memes, or research articles related to aPriori on Twitter and tag @aprMEV, then send the link to the officially designated Discord channel. Excellent tweets will be adopted and the creators will be granted a special role.

Before the project officially launches, you can join the aPriori official Discord to learn about the team's latest developments.

Kintsu - Liquidity Staking Protocol

Kintsu is a liquidity staking protocol native to Monad, attempting to solve the liquidity issues in traditional PoS staking, providing users with a more flexible and valuable staking method that allows them to fully utilize their assets while ensuring fund security.

The term Kintsu comes from the Japanese word "金继" (Kintsugi), which is a traditional Japanese art form of repairing broken pottery. Just as Kintsugi repairs broken pottery, Kintsu is described as "the golden line that repairs the break in liquidity," aiming to "repair" the "breaks" in the blockchain ecosystem, implying that the Kintsu protocol can resolve the contradiction between staking and liquidity in PoS blockchains.

Kintsu has announced a $4 million financing round led by Castle Island Ventures.

Hold NFTs & Stake Tokens - Some Speculations on the Network

In addition to participating in the community, Twitter user @FabianoSolana has summarized some intriguing speculations about potential airdrop eligibility for Monad:

Backpack Wallet Users & Madlads Holders

Since Monad invested in Backpack and announced that the Backpack wallet will be integrated on the first day of the Monad testnet; and the holders of the Solana NFT leader Mad Lads have maintained a supportive and cooperative relationship with Monad.

Wassieverse NFT Holders

The founder of the Wassieverse project is an angel investor in Monad, and the current floor price for Wassieverse is 20 SOL.

Wormhole-related Users

Previously, Wormhole provided a considerable $W airdrop share to the Monad community, and Wormhole co-founder Robinson Burkey is also an angel investor in Monad. Therefore, $W stakers are likely to receive Monad airdrops.

Pyth-related Users

Monad's co-founder is also a maintainer of Pyth and has previously released the Pythenian NFT. Additionally, Pyth will serve as Monad's official oracle. Since only users holding about 4,000 $Pyth can enter the top 10,000 to qualify for the airdrop.
