Executive Summary

Let's dive into the Helios Testnet airdrop, a new opportunity to potentially earn some solid rewards. It's a modular Layer 1 blockchain aiming to fix fragmented ecosystems by focusing on interoperability, on-chain automation, and developer sustainability. What makes it stand out is its unique approach to staking, allowing validators to use various established tokens like Ethereum, Cosmos, and BNB chain, which helps decentralize control and boost network security. The Cosmos team is already following them on X, hinting that Atom tokens might be the first to be natively stakeable.

Helios has a confirmed XP system, where you grind for experience points to increase your chances of a good airdrop. While there's a bit of a question about needing another modular Layer 1 when something like Bear Chain already does proof of liquidity, as airdrop farmers, the goal is to get the money, so it's worth interacting with.

Here’s a breakdown of how to get involved and maximize your chances:

  • Getting Started with Helios Testnet:

    • Head over to testnet.helioschain.network.
    • Connect your EVM-compatible wallet, like MetaMask, Rabby, or Rainbow.
    • The first two steps are easy: connect your wallet and sign a transaction.
    • Important Faucet Issue: The team has acknowledged that the faucet for claiming testnet tokens isn't working right now. You’ll need these tokens for later steps, so check back in a few hours after watching this video to see if it’s fixed.
    • Once you can claim faucet tokens, the next step is to mint a badge. You can find a full step-by-step guide on boxmining.com.
    • After completing these initial steps, you can start interacting with the Helios portal.
  • Interacting with the Helios Portal:

    • Within the portal, you can delegate or stake your HLS testnet tokens.
    • You can also bridge assets from other testnets like Sepolia (Ethereum), Fuji (Binance), and Amoy (Polygon) to Helios.
    • While there isn't a governance portal open yet, staking your HLS tokens is likely to open up access to it later.
    • It's currently quite "under-farmed" with only about 12,000 users, so repeating these interactions daily could significantly increase your chances of a good reward.
  • Helios on Zealy Quests:

    • Helios also has quests on Zealy, which are generally straightforward. Many involve social tasks, but you'll also need to submit proof of your on-chain interactions on the Helios testnet.
    • Crucial Step for Eligibility: You must link your wallet to their Discord server. Go to the "link wallet" channel in Discord and connect the same wallet you’re using for Helios. This is vital because they track XP, role assignments, and airdrop eligibility through Discord. If you don't do this, none of your other activities will count.
  • Understanding the XP System:

    • Helios uses a two-tiered XP system:
      • Level Roles: These are tied directly to your on-chain interactions on the Helios testnet and portal. The levels go all the way up to 300+, with roles like "Genesis Council" and "Helios Testnet Pioneer." Reaching level 300 will be incredibly challenging and could take months, based on past experiences with similar farming efforts.
      • User Behavior Base: This system rewards you for engaging with the community, providing valuable insights ("alpha"), and creating good content about the Helios blockchain. Some of these tags are automatically granted based on your testnet activity, while others, like "Proposal Master" (for passing a governance proposal) or "Contributor" (for early NFT badge support), are manually assigned by the Helios team. The automatic ones are easy to get by just interacting with the testnet.
  • Final Thoughts:

    • While the necessity of yet another modular Layer 1 might be debatable, for airdrop farmers, the potential rewards make it worth the effort.
    • The gamified process, particularly the challenge of reaching level 300 or achieving "Genesis Council" status, can be quite engaging for those who enjoy the grind.

Welcome back to AlphaDrop. My name is Ron. My name is Martin. And today we're gonna be covering some updates on testnet airdrops. There's a new testnet airdrop that you can interact with as well as three updates on the existing testnet campaigns that we have been farming and we're very looking forward to claiming some good airdrops. So stick around and let's dive straight in. Let's go! Smash up the like button. Mm-hmm. Okay let's dive into airdrop testnet number one Helios. So very recently Helios okay on X they announced the testnet campaign go oh god I gotta login okay two sec two sec bear with my hair. Have we talked about this one before? No. This is an old project isn't it? There's another one that has a similar name as well Helios but this one itself is a new layer one Helios layer one. Okay so June 12th Helios testnet is live anyone with an invite link can now join explore the chain and start earning XP for their upcoming airdrop. So it's confirmed there's a XP system you grind up the XP system and you have a very good chance of getting some solid airdrops. We'll also dive into the tier system that they're using for their XP system okay but first and foremost what is Helios blockchain? They're a modular layer one blockchain designed to address the limitations of fragmented ecosystems by focusing on interoperability on-chain automation and long-term developer sustainability. Unlike traditional layer ones that rely on singular token ecosystems Helios allows validators to stake a variety of tokens from established ecosystems like Ethereum, Cosmos and BNB chain thereby decentralizing control and enhancing network security. So this is not the first time we've seen a project done this we've seen other projects also implementing other tokens that you can natively stake. Bear chain is one example Helios they can try that. So so far we have Cosmos team following them officially on X so maybe this will be their first onboarding ecosystem partner to natively stake Atom tokens so that could be down the line pay attention here okay my fellow Atom stakers. Now let's dive straight into how to interact with the Helios testnet airdrop. So first and foremost you're gonna want to go to testnet Helios chain dot network and connect your EVM wallet so Helios layer one is EVM so you can use Meta mask Rabi wallet or rainbow wallet. Now a bit buggy here you'll complete step one very easy which is to connect wallets step two sign transaction then step three they'll ask you to claim faucet however there's a problem today the team has said the faucet isn't working at the moment we're fixing it and we'll let you know as soon as it's working so maybe come back a couple of hours after you watch this and check to see if you can claim the faucet it is very important you need to claim the tokens from this page because the next step in step four will be to mint the badge we've laid out the full step here on box mining.com you can refer to the full article for the step by step right so step four will be claiming the badge and then step five after you've completed all the steps you can start interacting with the Helios portal which will look like this okay so connect your EVM wallet and there's a ton of thing that you can do you can delegate your HLS token so you can stake your tokens you can bridge assets from each Sepolia to Helios you can even bridge from Fuji Binance testnet and Amoy Polygon testnet and then they don't have governance yet but I think once you've staked or delegated your HLS tokens the governance portal will open so very straightforward and this is quite under farmed there's only 12,000 users using Helios as of now okay now apart then you repeat every day if you want to increase your chances now the next one to do is to complete Helios on Zilli Yay we got another Zilli test oh my god our favorite this is Ron's favorite this is my favorite this is so fun to do but yes they have a Helios Zilli quest that you can do all very straightforward all social related as well as proof submissions of your on-chain interaction on Helios testnet now I think the most important step here is step eight you'll need to link your wallet to their discord server once you go to the discord server go to link wallet here and you'll need to connect your your wallet the same wallet you use to farm Helios testnet here on discord because they're gonna be tracking XP role assignment and airdrop eligibility so none of the things that you do matters if you do not do this exactly yes cover this ground this is very important to do and now let's talk about the XP system itself so look let's go to level up feed us are a general XP feed so they have oh not here is it this one two sec where you go roles explain here we go so they have a two XP base system this one XP base roles level roles is tied directly with your on-chain interaction here on Helios testnet and Helios portal you can see the level goes all the way up to level 300 plus Genesis council elite Helios testnet pioneer so good luck if you keep grinding try to get level 300 getting to level 300 will be a little bit difficult it could take you a month minimum I've done discord farming before you know Zion one took me three months to get to level seven out of ten which is very difficult okay level 300 that's crazy I mean is it just by chatting no it's by on-chain interaction okay okay okay all right then the other one that you can do is user behavior base so interacting with community members providing alpha creating good content for Helios blockchain which is right here tags reflect your testnet behavior and contribution style some are automatically granted others are assigned by the Helios team so just assume oh sorry right here so these ones are manual okay these ones the team will look at your activity and they say if it's good enough we'll give you those roles they'll give you a proposal master if you pass a governance proposal they'll give you a contributor if you're an early nft badge supporter so on so on these ones are automatic these ones are very easy to do if you've been interacting with the Helios testnet okay okay so very straightforward for Helios testnet might cook might not cook to be honest for men anyway to farm it anyway okay well my first impression is why do we need another modular layer one blockchain when we already have bear chain doing proof of liquidity but still if they have airdrop system let's farm it anyway yeah that's true we've seen other projects do this exact same thing but as airdrop farmers you just want the money so we're just gonna interact and hopefully get rewards yeah the gamified process here try to get to level 300 you're a gamer you want to get to the highest level you want to get to challenge it here and get to the Genesis Council if you wanna min max Helios blockchain testnet okay so yeah that's about it guys smash up the like button subscribe to the channel my name is Ron Martin the belll SaaS box Battle
