You may automatically qualify for an airdrop if you're holding a specific cryptocurrency or you've used a particular dApp in the past. Once you've completed the tasks detailed by a crypto project, you should see the crypto airdrop in your associated crypto wallet on its official drop date

A crypto airdrop is a marketing strategy used by blockchain-based projects that involves divvying out free tokens en masse as part of a broader promotional initiative. This is done as a direct deposit into a user's crypto wallet.
