Welcome Avatar! As mentioned we’re skipping the paid post for tomorrow since only people as deranged as we are will be messing around with wallets to acquire more computer coins. The good news is, if you’re reading this you have some basic steps to make some free money assuming you have a smidgen of creativity.
Even if you don’t this will still be useful for you.
Crypto is a Network Effect
As we enter into 2024, it’s a good time to remind everyone that the value in crypto is creating networks/communities on chain. The more that people use something the more valuable it gets. Like the telephone. It would have zero value if no one used it but if the world uses it, the value skyrockets.
Goal For You: Outside of the jungle for the end of the year, we’d set a goal to convince a total of one person to acquire crypto (BTC or ETH). It does not matter which one, just go based on their responses to you.
If they think it is “too late” for BTC then you’d pitch ETH. If they are scared and more worried about the coin being around then you pitch BTC.
So on and so forth. As a goal it probably makes sense to get them to buy around $1,000-$2,000 worth. Call it 0.05 BTC or 1ETH as a rough goal range.
Consider this goal #1 for the holidays.
Airdrop - Free Money No Effort
If you’ve been around for the last couple of years there is a high chance you were involved with NFTs. If you purchased or sold any NFTs with royalties you will be eligible for the $FRAME airdrop. The vast majority of our readership should qualify after flipping a few small NFTs at minimum (Miladys, Porsche etc)
How to Do it: Simply go here (Source). Click the icon, connect wallet and sign message. Follow on twitter then you’ll be moved to a page to see how much you receive on Jan 21. After that you can check all your other wallets. Note: you can use any twitter account and that account can be used to claim hundreds of wallets. If you’re worried about privacy it takes a few minutes that way.
No Estimated Value: For those that have been around since 2021 you’ve already learned that the value can be anywhere from a few hundred bucks to tens of thousands. Some examples from the past years: 1) AGLD was $40,000, 2) ENS was around $18,000, 3) BOTTO was around $2-3K, 4) ARB was in the $5K+ range and 5) LOOKS and XYZ were a few thousand at minimum.
Airdrop 2 - Free Money Minimal Effort
DOP Protocol
There is a new testnet spinning up called DOP Protocol. This one is similar to the ARB airdrop and other network drops. If you spin up the wallet and simply use it a little bit (send money around etc.) then you’re going to be eligible. Also there is a performance boost for getting new people to try it (See network effect so all new test nets need users).
Here is how it’ll work.
Step 1: Just spin up any new metamask address. Make sure there is a minimal amount of eth in it - call it 0.1 ETH.
Step 2: Follow this link and we’ll get a performance bonus (a chunk of which will be donated to the treasury): LINK
Step 3: If you don’t want to message around to get people, just spin up new twitter and new metamask wallets. This is more cumbersome but it would guarantee you get the max rewards. You would need three.
What it Does
“The Data Ownership Protocol team is building a compelling alternative to existing solutions that offer full transparency by default. By embracing zero-knowledge cryptography, we enable anyone to keep information about their financial affairs private — whether it’s their ETH balance, the NFTs they own, or the transactions they make.” - Source ← Full medium article
Generally speaking, when a project spins up based on something Vitalik has mentioned, it usually gets traction. For this reason we’re pretty confident the airdrop will be worth the time.
As usual there is always risk and yes it does take three minutes to follow the steps.
Conclusion
That’s really it. Short and simple since we’ve given out a few steps that people need to take
Please try to convince at least one person to buy $1-2K worth of ETH or BTC. Should be doable based on our audience
Collect your free $FRAME drop which will cost nothing, takes about 60 seconds to complete. Only annoying part is checking all your wallets (LINK)
Sign up for DOP Protocol using our link here (source) and we’ll contribute part of the airdrop to the treasury - no one will know the value until it hits later
Security Note: to be extra safe we suggest using a new metamask wallet with minimal ETH since it takes two seconds
Spin up new accounts if needed to qualify, but doubt it is hard to get three people
On that note 2024 should be fun as we’ll be doing more time consuming airdrop searching, test net farming and acquiring a lot of computer coins.
Until then Stay Toon’d!

Streamlined the process and calculated the time required to reach max bonus for DOP protocol testnet (base reward + 2000% bonus), which would be 20 hours max.
Note: using just one browser (I use chrome) and create new profile for each DOP wallet. No VPN.
The process and required time:
1. Create new chrome profile, download metamask extension and create new metamask wallet: 56s
2. Create new DOP wallet through BTB's link, and link to metamask: 1m11s
3. Complete step 1 of the tasks by creating new X account and following DOP: 1m27s
4. Complete step 2 to step 7 (encrypt, decrypt assets, etc.): 3m2s
5. Complete step 8 by doing above no.1 and 2 times three, but using your own link instead of BTB's: (56s + 1m11s) x 3 = 3m59s
Total = 10m35s, but let's round it to 11m.
100 DOP wallets created through the generated link needs to complete all of the 8 steps to reach max bonus, so 11m x 100 = ~18.5 hours
Taking into account the time you might be spending to create your first DOP wallet, etc. max required time should be 20 hours.
Don't know till when it'll last, but you only need to do it for 3~4 hours/day for 5 days, so there's still time until Jan 1st.
Will it be worth it? No clue
Easier said then done. Pitched crypto (specifically ETH) to a group of people at work the other day, they laughed in my face like I was deranged. Good reminder that we are still early. Ultimately I’ll have the last laugh
