Free Dollars for SEI Airdrop

If you don't want free money, please don't read.

Hello fellow readers!

So some of you may have heard/seen on CT that SEI is currently rewarding bridgooors free money when they bridge over to SEI. I spent around 10 hours last night due to slow transactions and playing around to find optimized routes to save time etc, so lets break it down! You can read more about the airdrop here.

Currently, only 3 methods are available to be “counted” as a bridge-transaction.

1. Bridging via Wormhole

2. Bridging via Axelar

3. Bridging via IBC

Amongst these 3 methods, I only use Axelar. This is because for Wormhole, you can bridge in assets but bridging out is a problem due to capacity. So your funds will be stuck in SEI until Wormhole gives you the green light.

Whereas for IBC… I don’t use Cosmos so I didn’t bother lmao. So I’m only going to provide a walkthrough on Axelar assets because you can bridge in and out with no issues, and it only costs $5 roundtrip. Keep in mind only the assets below will count.

Walkthrough:

1. Go to https://app.sei.io/crosschain-airdrop and create a new wallet using Compass and once you do, click “Connect Wallet”

   

2. Check if you Metamask wallet is eligible, if it is, then get ready for free monies

   

3. Link the wallets, requires you to sign a message

4. Swap USDC or USDC.e for axlUSDC on Arbitrum (or whatever chain you have funds on) on the linked wallet.

5. Click “Bridge” or go to “3rd Party Bridge” on the left tab, select Arbitrum as the source chain and pick axlUSDC, and make sure the SEI destination wallet is the same one as you have linked earlier

   

6. Click bridge and wait for the bridge to be completed. Usually takes less than an hour.

7. Once you have bridged, you need to wait for roughly 3 hours or less for the DAPP itself to register the bridge transaction. Once it does, it will show you something like this.

   

   Pending website to register your bridging tx

8. All you have to do now is pray that you get a big airdrop. After trying it out with friends and different amounts, its all luck/RNG, but bridging $10k seems to be the optimal dollar value to bridge to get the highest R/R. There are a few different tiers of “chests” you get.

   

   Common: lmao not even worth mentioning but double digit SEI
   Uncommon: 200+ SEI
   Rare: 500+ SEI
   Epic: 5000+ SEI
   Don’t know about the other 2 rarities, never seen anyone in my circle having more than that so who knows you might be the lucky one

9. You can send the SEI to Binance/Bybit to dump or hold, up to you but don’t forget to leave some SEI in your wallet to bridge the funds out.

10. Using the Compass wallet you made, get the seedphrase/privatekey and import it into Keplr Wallet (download it if you don’t).

11. Once you have the Keplr wallet set up, go to “Chain Visibility” and import all chains to make the SEI account appear.

    

    

12. Go to Satellite, connect your Keplr wallet and just bridge out from SEI, you will need some SEI in the wallet which should be no problem since its the same address which you just claimed your airdrop from when you imported it from Compass (takes about 10-15min).

Voila, free monies. Rinse and repeat on as many eligible Metamask wallets as possible. Most active wallets which you trade on will be eligible. Some friends bridged $10k+ and still got uncommon/rare chests so its totally luck-based (afaik), a friend bridged $100k and got an uncommon treasure (rip), I did 5 wallets and got 3 Epic, 1 Rare and 1 Uncommon and the most active wallet I had got the uncommon one (wtf).

Would also recommend using a new browser profile as it helped speed things up on my end though I have no idea why. You do not have to wait till the website registers your bridging tx before you can bridge out, so once its in, you can go out ASAP and send to another wallet to repeat the process and do them concurrently.

That’s all for this post! Hope you get some good chests and happy weekend ladies and gentleman! Remember to share and subscribe otherwise my 10 hours spent doing this shit will feel like shit. Feel free to comment questions if you have any! Don’t know how long this will last so better use the weekend to do it.

Also, check out GetGrass, will drop the alpha on my next edition after I come back from travelling next week!

Let me know if anyone got more than 5k SEI lmao!
