Project Overview
OP_NET is a Bitcoin metaprotocol designed to bring fully expressive smart contract functionality directly to Bitcoin's Layer 1 without requiring Bitcoin Improvement Proposals or changes to the Bitcoin core protocol. It operates by utilizing Tapscript to create a smart contract environment integrated seamlessly with Bitcoin, enabling developers to build decentralized applications on Bitcoin with security guaranteed by Bitcoin's consensus and settlement layer. OP_NET supports WebAssembly compatibility with multiple languages for development and enables Bitcoin-native DeFi applications such as DEXs, lending, and staking. Transactions retain Bitcoin as the gas token and occur fully on-chain, maintaining alignment with Bitcoin's design principles. The protocol's execution layer (consisting of OP_VM and OP_NET nodes) handles smart contract operation while the Bitcoin mainnet serves as the initiation and final confirmation layer. OP_NET charges an execution fee and priority fee in Bitcoin, introducing a unique fee model that includes burning Bitcoin as part of transaction costs.
Is the OP_NET airdrop confirmed?
This remains speculative unless the project has made an explicit official allocation, checker, or claim announcement. Treat participation as potential eligibility farming, not guaranteed rewards.
Why did the score change?
The score was refreshed from current public signals including official links, web search results, recent X activity, funding/project strength, task clarity, expected upside, and effort/risk.
Guide
To participate in the OP_NET airdrop, follow these key steps:\n- Join the OP_NET community channels to stay updated on official announcements.\n- Set up a Bitcoin wallet compatible with OP_NET smart contracts.\n- Acquire some Bitcoin (BTC) to use as gas for interacting with OP_NET contracts.\n- Engage in OP_NET testnet activities such as deploying or interacting with smart contracts.\n- Use OP_NET developer tools to build simple dApps or tokens to demonstrate active participation.\n- Provide feedback or report bugs if applicable to gain recognition.\n- Follow official social media channels and complete any required social tasks or forms.\n- Maintain activity over the airdrop period to maximize eligibility.\n- Monitor for official airdrop instructions regarding claiming tokens post-launch.\n- Avoid any risky or unofficial third-party claims to protect assets.
Research Refresh: Participation Notes (2026-06-16)
- Check the official website and X account before taking any action.
- For staking, deposits, lending, or liquidity actions, size positions conservatively and track wallet risk.
- Complete official quests or points campaigns and keep activity consistent rather than one-off.
- Avoid unofficial claim links, copied forms, and DMs; use only official domains/social links.
Maximize Potential
Research Refresh: Maximization Notes (2026-06-16)
- Prioritize official, repeatable activities that are visible on-chain or in the project dashboard.
- Keep one consistent wallet history for this ecosystem unless the project explicitly supports account linking.
- Document completed quests, points, campaign IDs, and wallet addresses for later checker/claim windows.
- Do not chase high-cost volume unless the project has a clear, credible incentive program.

Ranking read
- Updated score: 79/100 (A Tier).
- Archive decision: kept active; no strong evidence that claims/distribution are finished.
Scoring Recalibration (2026-06-16)
- Score recalibrated with stricter evidence gates: direct airdrop/points/claim evidence, actionable path, current official signals, expected upside, effort/cost, and stale-evidence penalties.
- Generic project strength, funding, or broad activity no longer qualifies for S/A without direct opportunity evidence.
- Recalibrated score: 71/100 (B Tier by database thresholds).
