Executive Summary
Alright, hereβs a breakdown of that Monad testnet airdrop tutorial.
This video gives a step-by-step guide to participating in the Monad testnet activities to potentially qualify for an airdrop. It covers everything from getting testnet tokens through faucets or purchase, to interacting with various parts of the Monad ecosystem like decentralized exchanges (DEXs), staking platforms, lending protocols, NFT marketplaces, and even an RWA platform, aiming to maximize interactions for a possible future token distribution.
Here are the key steps and points discussed:
- Monad Quick Recap: Monad is a highly anticipated project that has raised over $244 million in funding. It recently launched its testnet and already shows impressive stats, making it a prime target for airdrop farming. While there's no official points system yet, the goal is to interact with as many parts of the ecosystem as possible.
- Step 1 - Join the Testnet: You need to connect your wallet to the Monad testnet. You can use EVM-compatible wallets like MetaMask or recommended ones like Phantom or Backpack. The process is straightforward; connecting usually prompts you to add the network.
- Step 2 - Get $MON Faucet Tokens: To perform any transactions, you need Monad's native token, $MON, for gas fees. The official faucet exists but is often overwhelmed with demand.
- Multiple Faucet Options: There are several alternative ways to get free $MON testnet tokens daily:
- Mosey Finance: Connect your Telegram to get 0.1 $MON every 24 hours.
- ThirdWeb: Verify your email to get 0.01 $MON per day.
- APR Labs: Claim $MON every 24 hours.
- Gazzip Faucet: Get $0.25 worth of $MON every six hours from their faucet feature.
- Step 3 - Buy $MON Testnet Tokens: If free faucets aren't enough or you need more tokens quickly, you can actually buy testnet $MON. Gazzip is a platform where you can pay a small amount ($2, $10, etc.) using tokens on other chains and receive testnet $MON. This is a recommended way to ensure you have plenty of tokens for interactions, which is what the presenter did.
- Step 4 - Buy These 3 Meme Coins: Interact with the Monad testnet by trading on the built-in Uniswap testnet interface. Specifically, buy some of the three listed meme coins to generate initial transaction activity.
- Step 5 - Get This NFT for Free: Mint the "Chunk Star Special" NFT. It's an open edition, meaning it's free to mint and easy to do. This gets you an NFT interaction on the network.
- Step 6 - Deploy a Contract: Deploying your own smart contract is seen as an advanced interaction that puts you ahead of many basic users.
- Official Guide Method: Use the official Monad documentation with Remix IDE. This involves following step-by-step instructions to copy and paste Solidity code and deploy. It's presented as relatively easy even without programming knowledge if you follow the guide.
- Auto-Go-to Finance Method: A much simpler, one-click method is available on Auto-Go-to Finance. Just connect your wallet and click deploy. This is highlighted as a very easy way to achieve this important interaction.
- Step 7 - Register Your Domain: Register a domain name on the Monad testnet using NAT domain, one of the first domain registration platforms on Monad. This is considered a significant interaction. Registering more than once is recommended.
- Step 8 - Swap Here on These Platforms: Perform swaps on various DEXs operating on the Monad testnet. Specific platforms mentioned include Bindex (Bin), Bipox, and LFJ. The goal is to trade $MON for other available testnet tokens and vice versa to create diverse transaction history and interact with multiple protocols. Do several trades on these platforms.
- Step 9 - Stake Your $MON: Participate in staking on the testnet.
- APR: Stake $MON on APR to receive APR MON tokens in return.
- Magma: Stake $MON on Magma, a liquid staking protocol that has raised significant funding. Staking here gives you Shimon tokens and is seen as a potential 2-in-1 airdrop opportunity since Magma doesn't have its own token yet.
- Step 10 - Trade HERE: Engage in trading activities on platforms like Kuru DX. This involves depositing funds and performing trades to generate trading volume on a testnet exchange.
- Step 11 - Lend and Borrow HERE: Interact with lending protocols like Kinza Finance. Supply tokens to lend them out and borrow tokens against your supplied collateral. This demonstrates participation in the DeFi ecosystem on Monad.
- Step 12 - Mint All These NFTs: Mint multiple NFT collections beyond the initial Chunk Star Special. Several collections are mentioned:
- Mashidem: Free, open edition mint (ending soon, so check timing).
- MONADVERS: Mintable NFT.
- Lil Chokstars: Another free, open edition collection.
- More Key: Costs a small amount of testnet MON but is considered potentially worthwhile, offering experience points in some context.
- General NFT Advice: The Monad Discord has many more NFT collections. It's recommended to stick to those discussed in the official Discord to avoid minting low-value items, though nothing is confirmed regarding their airdrop relevance.
- Step 13 - Create a MEME buy and sell: Interact with NADFAN, a platform similar to Pump.fun. You can buy and sell meme tokens launched on the platform or even create your own meme token.
- Step 14 - Join Monad Fantasy: Sign up and play Monad Fantasy, a card-based game where you buy and sell cards (similar to fantasy sports). You can register with Twitter/X and claim free starting cards. Participating in tournaments is recommended, especially as one was starting around the time of the video. This platform is officially recognized and discussed in Monad's Discord.
- Step 15 - Use this RWA platform: Interact with Multiplify, an RWA (Real World Asset) yield protocol. This platform allows you to claim testnet USDC and USDT and stake them to earn TRB tokens, which might convert to RB tokens later. This is another potential 2-in-1 airdrop opportunity as Multiplify is expected to launch its own token. It also features a points or leaderboard system.
- Step 16 - More in Monad Ecosystem: Explore the broader Monad ecosystem map to find even more projects launching on the testnet.
- Step 17 - Official Monad Guide: Review the official Monad guide (though most essential steps are already covered in this tutorial). The guide highlights Monad Fantasy as an important platform to interact with.
- Step 18 - Join their Discord (is a must): Joining the official Monad Discord server is crucial. It's the best place to get real-time updates, find new projects or NFT collections, and stay informed about the testnet and potential airdrop opportunities. This gives you an advantage by staying ahead of developments.
- Getting More Alpha: For even more detailed information, multi-wallet strategies, and tracking tools, joining the presenter's private Discord and airdrop farming application is recommended. They have specific channels and tools dedicated to Monad and other airdrops.

Hi crypto fans! Welcome to CCS Cryptocurrency State. My name is Santiago and in today's video we are going to cover the best Monad testnet airdrop tutorial that you can find in YouTube. This is a step-by-step tutorial with everything that you need to do one by one. Everything from trading platforms, NFT collections, all the ecosystem of Monad in one video, going step-by-step with everything that you need to do. So if you are behind this project, don't forget to like the video, subscribe to the channel, click the bell to get the notifications. Everything that I cover in this video is in the first link of the description in my post. You have all the step-by-step tutorials. So even if you don't understand too much on crypto or you are beginning on airdrops, you will be able to use this guide. Just a very quick recap, Monad has more than 244 million in funding. It's one of the most expected projects right now. They launched the testnet last week and just in a couple of days of testnet, you can see the amazing stats that they have from this platform in terms of validators and everything that they launched. They have already many, many projects on their testnet. And yes, of course, it's super, super farming. So I cannot guarantee that we are going to have any good reward from this testnet, but it's not difficult to apply at this moment. There is no official point system. So you basically need to do everything that you can in the ecosystem. Let's go directly to the step-by-step. First of all, go to the testnet. You can join here using native testnet support chains like recommended wallet is Phantom. You can use it backpack, but you can also use your EBM compatible wallet or you can add manually the testnet into your wallet. In my case here, I will use the MetaMask and I will use the Monad testnet here on this EVM wallet. When you connect automatically, you will see that it's adding the Monad testnet so you can confirm it in your MetaMask and you are fine. Now the second point is the faucet. So you need to have MON tokens, which is a native token for Monad. That is why we also know that it's going to be a token and possible airdrop. And the MON is the token that you will pay the transactions. So for everything that we are going to do, you need this token. So first you have the official faucet that is down a lot because there are a lot of demands. But basically when you are connected on the testnet, you can put here your wallet, click on get testnet month and you will receive a little bit to start doing transactions. But I will share with you other forms to get these tokens so you don't miss the opportunity. One of them is you can connect your telegram in Mosey Finance and you can get 0.1 month every 24 hours. So here at app.mosey.finance, connect with your telegram, you will see a faucet that you can get that amount. So that is another way to get Monad tokens each day. Then you can use ThirdWeb. You can verify your email and get 0.01 Monad per day. So this is another way to get it. In third way, you have the Monad faucet here. Again, you need to connect your wallet and be verified with your email. And another faucet that you can get is the APR Labs. So you can claim Monad every 24 hours. So here at stake.apr.io. In the faucet, you can connect your wallet and also ask for some faucet tokens. So there are many ways to get faucet tokens. You will find probably another option to get faucet tokens. And if all these free forms doesn't work, you have also a way to buy some Monad tokens. That is what I did. Just with a couple of bucks, you can buy tokens. That is our point three. So you can go to Gazzip and buy some more tokens. Shoutout to Bleaky, one of our top airdrop hunters on our private discord. He has been covering also the launch of Monad and he posted this in our private discord. Now it's from public knowledge. So you can also find it elsewhere. But yeah, we were ahead. So we already bought a ton of mod tokens for our testnet purposes. So you can go here to Gazzip, connect your wallet and here you can search for Monad. Down here you can see Monad testnet. So click there. Once you can see selected here, you can see here on selected chains Monad testnet. You can see the amount that I have there. Here you can select from where you want to pay. You can pay $2, $10, $20 or $50. And you can see how much Mon tokens you are going to receive. So with $10, you get 30 Mon tokens, which is a lot. And with $2, you can see you get $5.8 Mon. So that is also a lot for doing everything that you need to do. So you just need to select here one of the chains that you want to use to buy. Here you have the wallet that you will get the funds and then you can just click here to get the faucet. And besides that, you can see that you have a Monad testnet here. So you can get $0.25 each six hours. But yeah, you can see in this wallet, I have 5.9 Mon tokens that I bought here on Gatsy. So that is point two and three, how to get faucet tokens and buy tokens. Let's move into things that you can do here. The first thing, point four, you can make your swaps on three meme coins on the testnet. This will interact with Uniswap testnet. But you do this down here on the Monad testnet itself. You can keep going down and down here you can see make your first trade. So you can enter the amount of money that you want here. So buy these three main coin tokens. That will be the first thing that you can do. Again, just put the amount and click on buy the token that you want. Confirm the transaction in your wallet and you are done. Now point five, there's a collection that is interesting that you get the NFTs. So you can go here to the link and you can mint your chunk star special. That is an open edition. So this is free for you to do. Just click here on the link, connect your wallet, and then you can mint. Now once you are connected, just click on the mint button and you can mint it. So this is already minted on your wallet. Now point six, we want to deploy a contract on Monad testnet that also put us ahead of many people. But now you have two options. One, you can do it here on the official documentation. You can deploy a smart contract on Monad using Remix. We did this on many other projects, but they have a step by step. So even if you don't know too much about programming and you are not the developer, you can just follow these steps going to the IDE of Remix, click on start coding, follow all these steps and you will be able to do it. You just need to paste this solidity code. So everything is going to be here. I recommend you to follow these steps. It's really easy to understand if you just apply to this. So doing this, you will be able at the end down here to deploy a contract on this platform. Now the other way to do it, very easy with just one click is in auto, go to finance, deploy, on chain, you select Monad testnet or you just use the link that I put. Just connect your wallet, click on deploy and you are done. So deploying a contract is already important. So do the point six. Now moving to the point seven, you want to register your domain on NAT domain. This is one of the first domain register platforms on Monad. So go there, connect your wallet, search for your name and register. I would recommend you to do more than once. But again, registering your NAT name is very important at this point. After you do that, moving to point eight, we want to swap some MON tokens for many other tokens in all these platforms. You have Bindex, so here is the link for Bin. You have Bipox, LFJ. So many of these platforms, you just can go here, connect your wallet on Monad. You can see, you can trade Monad for any other tokens that you have here. Just do a couple of trades here and there in this platform and in the other platforms that I commented. So you have some transactions and contract interaction with many protocols. So after swap, you can also stake. So you can stake your MON. Initially, do it in APR. You will get APR MON when you stake. So go here, connect your wallet and stake in your MON, you receive APR MON. Another platform to do this is in Magma. This is a liquid staking protocol that raised 3.9 million. So it's another great opportunity for a future 2 in 1 airdrops because Magma doesn't have the token yet. So you can go to Magma and get Shimon when you stake. So you can see here, connect your wallet. Very similar to any other protocol that you already use it in another protocol. So put the amount of MON that you want and receive Shimon in return. So with that, we already swap, register domains, stake it. Now you can trade. So in Kuru DX, you can start trading. So you need to deposit funds there. Of course, this is TASNET. So you just need to do some trades to generate volume there. That is another important thing to do, the point 10. Now point 11, lend and borrow. And you can see how we are interacting on everything on the DeFi ecosystem. Just go here, connect your wallet. You can borrow and lend. So supply tokens here. Of course, you can trade it in the other platforms that we mentioned and you will be fine. So borrow and supply to get some interactions in Kinza Finance. Now point 12, we move into NFTs. For NFTs, we have many collections and guys, there are too many collections on MONAD. Some of them are these for Mashidem. This is free also to do. Just go to this one. It's going to end in one day and 17 hours at the moment that you are seeing this video. So it's really, really easy to do. It's optional to put your email if you want, but if not, just connect your wallet. This is an open edition in Mashidem. So it's very important if you are seeing the video right now to mint this. You also have the MONADVERS. So you can go here to MONADVERS and mint this one. Connect your wallet and also you can mint the MONADVERS NFT. So this is a great one. Another one I already mentioned before, Lil Chokstars. This is an open collection, also free. And finally, we have more key. So you can mint this. It will cost you a little bit of money, but I think it's worth it also. Again, this will give you also 500 experience points for the winner there. So again, nothing is confirmed with these NFT collections and there are many, many more. If you go from the official disc, you will see a ton of NFT collections. I would recommend you to follow the ones that are in the discord and discuss it there because you probably are going to mint stuff or maybe pay minting stuff that are not worth it. But with this, we already covered four collections that you can mint right now. Moving on, we have NADFAN. This is like PAMFAM. So you can launch a meme coin. You can buy and sell memes also. Just go here, connect your wallet again. No different to another protocol. There's a referral program if you want to use it. So you can go here for the last trade. You can click here in one of the tokens that you like and you can buy some amount of tokens here if you want. The minimum in this case is 0.5 month, but also you can go and create your own NFT if you want. Not much to add on that one, very similar to PAMFAM. Now, 14, we have Monad Fantasy. You can sign up with X and you can buy and sell your cards. This is also a platform recommended to do. It's in the official testnet of Monad, Monad Fantasy. So you can just register and play for free. You can claim your free cards initially on registration. There's a tournament starting in 16 hours at the moment of recording. So just started when you are seeing this video. So great opportunity here on Monad Fantasy. Try to interact with this one. This was also commented in the official pages on the discord. So it would be nice if you can do it. Now point 15, we have Multiplify. It's a world's first RWA Yelp protocol which is backed by huge misses. It's already on Kaito Connect which means that they will launch a token too. And you can do a 2x1 airdrop here. So you can connect your Monad testnet wallet. Initially, you claim some 50 USDC and USDT on Monad testnet and you can stake them. By staking, you get TRB which could be converted to RB in the future. So go to multiply. You can get your USDC and everything when you connect and join here. Again, you have rewards, leaderboard, everything like a point system project. And once you stake, you are going to start receiving those tokens. And guys, with that, we already covered all the different projects that you can use, NFT collections and everything. Now point 16 is the Monad ecosystem. So you can go here and check more projects that are going to be launched there. Point 17 is an official guide of Monad, which basically, I already covered in the things that we did. So most of this is already covered. So you don't need to really go into this one. But it's interesting to check. So you are up to date with everything. The important thing of this guide, it was the fantasy of Monad that I already mentioned. I recommend you to start playing and interacting on that one. And finally, guys, what is going to give you advantage on this airdrop is if you join the Discord of Monad. Because in the Discord, you can see live everything that is coming, new NFT collections and more that could give you an advantage on this airdrop. But besides that, guys, with this guide, you already cover everything step by step on all the most important things on the Monad testnet right now. If you want more information about Monad, I recommend you to join a private Discord. It's very, very cheap, guys. We have a specific channel for Monad airdrop. And of course, I have my airdrop application where you can follow all these steps on my app. Apply with multiple wallets and everything. There's a video here on my website that you can see on how my app works. We launched the version 2.0 a couple of months ago. So now it's super, super complete with alarms and more stuff that will tell you exactly what you need to do on each of these airdrops when you set your alarm. So, join to my private Discord, join to my application. The prices are still the same than 2024. We probably are going to increase them very, very soon. And that would be all for this best Monad airdrop testnet airdrop tutorial. This is the most complete guide that you are going to find right now on YouTube. Following this and joining to the Discord Monad, you are done. If you want more alpha, make it easy for you. Join my private Discord and airdrop application. That would be all. And I will see you in the next video. Bye!
