2026 Perpetual DEX Airdrop Opportunities Overview

I have been closely monitoring the airdrop trends within the Perp DEX ecosystem. By analyzing three core dimensions—fundraising scale, locked-in value, and incentive mechanisms—I have compiled a list of projects worth paying attention to, ultimately selecting the top 10 most promising perpetual contract DEX platforms.

Among them, the hybrid perpetual DEX within the zkSync ecosystem is particularly noteworthy. This project has raised $33 million, with community allocation accounting for 22%. It employs a weekly points pool incentive model to attract traders. This design thoughtfully considers the sustainability of liquidity mining, allowing participants to earn rewards through stable periodic cycles.

Looking at the entire Perp DEX sector, the market demand for perpetual contract trading continues to grow. Major platforms are competing fiercely in TVL and community building. Fundraising volume, token distribution mechanisms, and points systems have become key indicators for evaluating the early value of such projects. For users interested in participating in airdrops, combining the project's fundraising background with community incentive policies often helps identify higher-value opportunities.

The complete list of the top 10 projects has been compiled. Interested parties can continue to follow market developments.

I've been following the zkSync project that raised 33 million, and the 22% community allocation is quite good. It all depends on how the release pace of the subsequent staking pool turns out.

The 22% community allocation for the zkSync project is indeed impressive, but the weekly staking pool gameplay feels like it's been played out and overused.

The $33 million funding for zkSync is really impressive, and the 22% community allocation at least shows that the project team has some conscience. I think the weekly staking pool mechanism is much more reliable than a one-time airdrop, as it can at least prevent dumping.

22% community allocation? That's a bit low. It still depends on how the subsequent governance rights are distributed...

technically speaking, that 22% community allocation is doing heavy lifting here — but let's dissect what "weekly points pool" actually means when liquidity can dry up between cycles. interesting edge case nobody's really stress-testing yet.

I'm also watching the zkSync project, with $33 million in funding and 22% community allocation. Seems pretty reliable.

The zkSync project has a 22% community allocation. The weekly points pool system is okay, but I'm worried it might just be another scheme to cut the leeks.

zkSync's $33 million funding project looks decent, but I need to see how the 22% community allocation is distributed in detail. The weekly points pool gameplay is quite interesting, much more reliable than those one-time airdrops before. Can you share this list? I need to do some research myself. Perpetual DEX has been hot this year, but be cautious of projects that hype up their funding and have inflated TVL. By the way, among these 10 projects, are there any particularly risky ones, or are they all worth jumping on?

zkSync definitely looks interesting, with a 22% community allocation—quite a good move.
