With the launch of the Blast mainnet, which ecological projects have already brought the benefits to the forefront?
Written by: Deep Tide TechFlow
Finally, it has arrived after much anticipation.
The Blast platform, which attracts ETH to generate yields, points, and airdrop operations, has officially announced its launch at 5 AM on March 1 (Hong Kong time).
Considering the long-standing PUA gameplay, many degens have likely already deposited ETH into Blast. While ETH itself can earn interest and gain official points, don't forget:
The ETH you stake will become a coveted asset for the various projects in the Blast ecosystem.
The history of the crypto market proves that every new L2 is a new opportunity for liquidity to be claimed. Whether it's reinventing the wheel or launching new projects, various ecosystem projects will inevitably emerge on the new Blast;
And since the total liquidity is limited, projects within the same track will compete for liquidity, while projects in different tracks are also objectively competing for liquidity.
Thus, we may witness a "buyer's market" in the early days of the official launch of the Blast mainnet.
TVL and user activity are king. Since you have already staked ETH on Blast, ecosystem projects will undoubtedly try various pre-heating activities to encourage you to use their products, ideally providing liquidity for their products as well.
Some ecosystem projects have taken this buyer's market to the extreme: You don't need to do anything; just come and take a look, and based on the amount of ETH you have staked, you will receive a "pre-airdrop."
In other words, in a situation where liquidity is scarce, it has become easier to take advantage of the Blast ecosystem projects.
So, what are the ecosystem projects currently available for easy profit-taking? In this issue, we will provide a review to offer feasible references for gold mining in the early days of Blast.
Blasterswap: Native DEX, stake ETH to receive token pre-airdrop
Blasterswap is the native DEX on Blast, supporting real-time token exchanges, limit orders, and dollar-cost averaging, while also featuring a Launchpad function to meet the needs of token launches, exchanges, and investments within the ecosystem.
Twitter: @BlasterSwap
Currently, users can stake ETH and stablecoins through Blast's bridge (click here) or stake $BLUR without any additional interaction to receive the pre-allocated BLSTR tokens from Blasterswap; the amount of pre-allocation depends on the staking amount.
Players can visit here to check the number of tokens they can obtain.
The normal logic is that when the mainnet goes live, the pre-allocated tokens will convert into mainnet tokens for players to claim, but the specific unlocking period, conditions, and any additional operations required need to be closely monitored through the project's social media.
Additionally, those who previously promoted and shared the project on Twitter will receive extra airdrop acceleration, but the official website indicates that the snapshot has ended; players can still connect their wallets to obtain their "pre-airdrop" token shares.
Compared to grinding tasks and interactions, this kind of instant reward is much friendlier. Considering the lower gas fees on Blast L2, the cost of claiming rewards will not be high.
Wen Exchange: NFT marketplace, also rewards participants
Wen Exchange is the native NFT marketplace on Blast, supporting zero transaction fees and featuring native earnings from Blast.
Twitter: @wen_exchange
Like Blasterswap, this project also follows a "participants share" model: as long as you stake ETH, stablecoins, or Blur, you can receive a pre-airdrop of wen tokens; the more of the three assets you stake, the more wen tokens you can accumulate.
Players can click here to check the number of pre-airdrop tokens they can obtain. Additionally, posting on Twitter and inviting others can yield more airdrop acceleration.
While we do not know how much the wen token will be priced, completely free airdrop rewards (with zero time cost and zero additional asset input) will undoubtedly attract more participants.
Pacmoon: A MEME similar to the name of Blast's founder
Surely no one is unaware of the name of Blast's founder, Pacman, which actually has an earlier source: the Pac-Man game.
In a similar vein to the name Pacman, a community-driven MEME token called Pacmoon has emerged, clearly referencing Pac-Man in its visual elements; meanwhile, the meaning of "Moon" is self-evident, suggesting a meteoric rise.
Twitter: @pacmoon_
Currently, the PACMOON website does not provide any actual product information; the entire webpage is very simple and retro, resembling a MEME symbol while also relating to the founder's name.
The project has also initiated airdrop points. As long as you have deposited ETH on Blast, you will receive an initial airdrop point, and inviting others can earn you additional points, ultimately forming a total score to compete on the leaderboard.
Players can click here to check their points and await more details on subsequent airdrops.
Blast Disperse: Batch sending transactions to win airdrop rewards
Blast Disperse is a highly incentivized dapp on Blast that allows users to send ETH, tokens, and NFTs to multiple addresses simultaneously, powered by $DISP.
Twitter: @BlastDisperse
If the previous projects are like feeding you, then Blast Disperse requires you to take action yourself. Of course, the method to obtain airdrops is also very simple:
Just batch send assets to other addresses on the testnet.
Players can visit here to enter the project website and send ETH, other tokens, or NFTs to target addresses in the format preset by the homepage system, and then check their scores on the airdrop page shown in the image below.
From my experience, the more times you send, the more airdrop points you earn. As for the conditions for converting points into tokens, more details will be available after the mainnet officially launches.
BlastScore: Task platform on Blast, earn points by completing tasks
Similar to Galxe, Blast also has its own task platform called BlastScore.
Twitter: @blast_score
Official website: https://blastscore.io/
Players can view tasks set by different projects on this platform, and by completing task conditions (such as following social media and interactions), they can earn various points and token rewards.
However, the specific reward rules are entirely tied to the conditions designed by the project parties on the platform, requiring players to actively complete tasks.
The benefit is that this project brings two layers of potential rewards:
First, completing tasks published by projects on the platform earns rewards in tokens related to those projects;
Second, the more the platform is used, the more likely it is to earn airdrop rewards from the platform itself.
According to the project's DOC, airdrop expectations have already been posted. Therefore, for diligent players, it is worth a try.
AI WAIFU: Virtual girlfriend game, participate in LBP token issuance to receive airdrops
AI Waifu is an AI-driven virtual girlfriend game that uses AI language models and anime characters to accompany players in growth, providing both emotional support and in-game earnings.

Trial invitation code: 9L6KD IA8FX
In the previous Blast Big Bang developer incentive event, it won the Runner-Up award, and the official has promised to share 100% of the developer incentives from the event with users.
The prerequisite for players to receive airdrop shares is to participate in the upcoming LBP token issuance on March 4.
The number of tokens available for sale is 30,000,000, with an initial price of 0.169 U and an initial FDV of $16.9 million.
On March 8, the tokens will officially be generated after the LBP, and it is speculated that participating players will need to return to Fjord to claim their WAIFU tokens; the official version of the game will launch on the 11th.
Regarding the airdrop timing, AI Waifu officials will distribute airdrops only after receiving the Blast Big Bang rewards and after the LBP ends; the exact date and time are to be announced.
Thus, the logic for profiting from airdrops in this project is essentially to bet on the upward expectation of WAIFU tokens while also receiving additional airdrops after the token TGE.
In conclusion, it can be confirmed that the official launch of Blast L2 will undoubtedly spark a wave of ecosystem project enthusiasm.
With wallet and connection security ensured, selectively participating in projects with the lowest time and capital costs is a reasonable choice in the early stages of ecosystem development.
As for how far the Blast ecosystem can go, it still needs the test of time and the market.
