Top 3 Crypto Airdrops For the First Week of July

Crypto airdrops remain one of the easiest ways to get in on promising projects while still in the ground-floor stage. With little to no initial capital required, farming budding projects could translate into significant financial returns when the project launches.

This week, several crypto projects are trending, with strong financial backing from notable investors making them promising ventures.

Zama

Blockchain service Zama is one of the top crypto airdrops this week, having opened on June 25. It is available for select airdrop farmers, and the pioneering open-source cryptography firm focuses on delivering novel Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) technologies tailored for blockchain and AI applications.

The Zama project boasts up to $130 million in funds raised from backers such as Pantera Capital, Multicoin Capital, Protocol Labs, Blockchange, Metaplanet, and Solana’s Anatoly Yakovenko, who is coming in as one of the angel investors.

It follows a Series B funding round, which sent Zama past the $1 billion valuation. The public testnet will go live on Tuesday, July 1, as it is open exclusively.

Farmers must visit the public testnet page and join Zama’s Discord community to participate in the Zama airdrop campaign.

The project rewards active engagement with the community. To participate successfully, follow any additional instructions on the testnet page or Discord.

MEXC

Another crypto airdrop to watch this week is from global centralized cryptocurrency exchange MEXC. MEXC launched an exclusive airdrop campaign specifically for Airdrops.io users.

The campaign runs from June 17 to July 17, 2025, with the collaboration offering benefits beyond the typical promotional campaigns.

“Users who register through our exclusive link will automatically join this airdrop program,” Airdrops.io indicated.

The program features two events that reward user registration and active trading participation. 

In the first event, farmers get a $20 USDT bonus for completing the basic deposit and trading requirements. Meanwhile, the second event offers bonuses ranging from $5 to $300 USDT based on future trading volume achievements.

“Combined with a permanent 20% rebate on all spot and futures trading fees, participants can earn up to $320 USDT in immediate bonuses plus ongoing savings on all future trading activities,” Airdrops.io added.

It comes amid MEXC’s resolve, rewarding the Airdrops.io community with superior benefits compared to standard promotional offerings.

The 20% fee rebate’s permanent nature ensures that users continue to benefit from reduced trading costs long after the initial bonus period concludes.

Based on these details, the MEXC airdrop may be uniquely rewarding for airdrop farmers and long-term platform users.

Sahara AI

Also on the watchlist this week is the Sahara AI crypto airdrop, a decentralized AI network that enables free and secure autonomous AI deployment with a high-performance, privacy-first network.

Sahara AI had raised $51.5 million in funding from investors like Binance Labs (now YZi Labs), Pantera Capital, and Polychain Capital.

After closing its testnet and with rewards available for claims, the project distributes 5% of the total SAHARA token supply. Additionally, there are exclusive cash rewards to early community contributors and ecosystem participants.

Moreover, with the airdrop serving as the first major distribution event, Sahara AI allocates 64.25% of the total token supply to various community-focused initiatives.

Eligible participants include users who earned Sahara Points through the Data Services Platform, Sahara Legends, who collected Shards for NFTs, and ecosystem builders who contributed to platform development.
