Three airdrop tasks dominate the first week of October: WalletConnect, Four.meme and Zeek. Active DeFi users, token builders and crypto community members are watching because each pairs a possible token handout with real operational and security hazards.. An airdrop is a free token send to chosen wallets as a launch or loyalty tool, and these schemes pull in users while letting teams test distribution before exchange listings or larger releases.
Airdrop Season Heats Up: WalletConnect, Four.meme, and Zeek Push for Growth
WalletConnect is preparing one of the largest airdrops in recent memory, with 50 million WCT tokens set aside for distribution. Sign-ups are already open and will remain active until October 18, while eligibility checks will take place in November. The move reflects WalletConnect’s strategy to expand its reach and bring more users into its ecosystem of connected wallets.
Meanwhile, Four.meme is targeting the meme token crowd on BNB Chain with a campaign built around community-driven tasks. Participants are invited to launch a token, bring in a friend, or post content, with the missions running until October 20. Points earned during this phase will later be swapped for tokens, creating an incentive structure designed to generate buzz and liquidity quickly.
Zeek takes a slightly different approach, acting as a social platform where users get rewarded for contributing useful posts. By linking a wallet and sharing content across Discord or Twitter, participants can collect points that may later convert into tokens. The focus here is on rewarding quality contributions, tying user engagement directly to token-based incentives.
From an adoption standpoint, airdrops remain one of the strongest tools to bring in users and encourage early activity. WalletConnect’s large-scale distribution highlights how projects use free tokens to expand their base, keep users engaged, and create an on-ramp for new participants in the Web3 space.
Still, community strategies like Four.meme’s can be a double-edged sword. While paying users to launch tokens and generate hype can provide quick liquidity and visibility, it also raises the risk of sharp price swings and reputational challenges if momentum fades. In contrast, platforms like Zeek focus on sustainable engagement, showing that the airdrop playbook continues to evolve with different balances of risk, reward, and community trust.
Product and compliance teams must finish sign-ups and tasks before 18 and 20 October, and users should watch the gap between point totals and later token swaps. The final worth of each drop rests on project utility and each participant’s own security steps.
