We continue with projects that have not yet launched their tokens. We covered DEX Aggregators in a previous article. Today we focus on the cross-chain bridges.
Usually bridging once is sufficient for airdrop eligibility from experience of the $GB airdrop. No guarantee of airdrops from any of these projects as usual. You will need to pay ETH mainnet gas fees in some of these bridges. Consider yourself whether it will be worth the cost.
Note: If your wallet doesn’t have the network you will bridge into or from, you can always add them at chainlist.org.
Hop Protocol
A bridge that links ETH Mainnet, Polygon, Arbitrum, Optimism and xDai. No hints of token launch yet.
Bridge from Polygon/Arbitrum/Optimism/xDai to save on gas fees.
For a larger chance of airdrop, you may also add liquidity. (You don’t have to add a equal value of hAsset in their pools. But if you do, you can swap your assets for hAsset at “Convert”.)
Arbitrum
The popular L2 layer. An investor of Arbitrum, Divergence Ventures, seems to be aiming for the airdrop as well (in mass scale of course).
Bridge from ETH Mainnet to Arbitrum. You will need to pay ETH gas fees.
Optimism
Competitor of Arbitrum. Divergence Ventures also gaming for this airdrop.
Bridge from ETH Mainnet to Optimism. You will need to pay ETH gas fees.
Aurora
A ETH Layer 2 solution by NEAR. They have recently launched their $AURORA token. Airdrop details have not been decided yet from the tweet.
You can choose to bridge from NEAR or ETH to Aurora. (Aurora network can be added from Chainlist to your metamask.)
Bridging from NEAR:

You can avoid ETH gas fees if you bridge from NEAR. If you do not have a NEAR wallet, you can create one here. You can send $NEAR from Binance to your wallet.
Bridging from ETH Mainnet:
You will need to pay ETH gas fees here.
