The $NXI airdrop campaign is not only live this month in free to play turn-based strategy game Everdawn: Champions, but also across the entire ecosystem that will be powered by the upcoming token on the Base network. Here are all the ways you can join this event to play to airdrop $NXI for free before it officially launches in December 2024, potentially on 3 major centralized exchanges.
How to Win $NXI Airdrop
The campaign, which kicked off on November 1st and is set to last for about 6 weeks, boasts a prize pool of 105 million tokens that is spread across the entire Animoca and Base-backed NXI entertainment ecosystem. Specifically, the reward pool is allocated across the following 4 categories through which you can earn a piece of the pie:
- Questing Realms Leaderboard
- Everdawn: Champions Leaderboard
- Holding Champions NFTs
- Referrals
Questing Realms Leaderboard
The Questing Realms Leaderboard has 30 million tokens up for grabs for the top 5000 highest-ranked players, but also for another 5000 randomly-selected players who have created an account on the Questing Realms platform, connected their wallet, completed their first quest, and accumulated at least 1250 points.
Questing Realms is a browser-based companion game to the ecosystem’s flagship blockchain game, where each player starts off with a free Warrior to send on various quests that the character has a chance of completing. Signing up will give you 250 points, while connecting a wallet rewards you with 500 points. Take on your first quest from the Noticeboard to get another 500 points, and continue scoring more by doing as many quests as you can. Logging in every day is also rewarded with points, and while doing the initial onboarding phase is enough to secure 1250 points for a chance at getting picked, those who want to guarantee themselves a share of this part of the prize pool will want to consistently login and play every day. You can purchase Champion NFTs to have more heroes to send on multiple quests. Players have already been able to earn airdrop points before the campaign started though, so those who have participated early now have a head start on the leaderboard.
Everdawn: Champions Leaderboard
The Everdawn Champions Leaderboard also has a 30 million $NXI prize pool allocated for the 5000 best players, with another random 5000 who have played around 5 matches and scored over 1000 points also having a chance of winning an airdrop.
You can download the web3 title in open beta on the Epic Games Store to start enjoying a strategic blockchain gaming experience where each PvP win earns you 300 points, while losing a match gets you 100 points. Either way, you need to complete the match all the way to the end, because if you choose to abandon the game, you won’t get any points. Get the highest rank that you can within the top 5000 for a chance at winning a bigger token allocation. Just like with the Questing Realms leaderboard, early players who jumped in when the game entered open beta have the advantage for this campaign, as their earned points continue to stay throughout this event.
Holding Champions NFTs
Alongside the 2 leaderboards that you can participate in for free, Champions NFT holders also have an opportunity to be rewarded just for simply holding their assets. If you’re already holding a Champions NFT, you are eligible for a 30 million token prize pool and will automatically be airdropped your share of tokens. You should make sure your wallet holding the NFT(s) is connected to your Everdawn account on the questing platform so that you don’t have any trouble receiving your airdrop. The amount of tokens you will receive depends on the rarity and stats of your NFT. You can increase the size of your airdrop by staking your Champion. Browse Champions using the Tavern page on the questing portal, while heading to OpenSea to buy NFTs from the male and female collections, both on the Ethereum network.
Referrals
Last but not least is the referral system, through which 15 million $NXI is set to be distributed to the top 2000 referrers. If you don’t rank high enough, you could still be among the lucky 1000 referrers to receive an airdrop, so long as you have at least 100 points.
The number of points you can earn per referral varies depending on what the referral does. When a new referral creates a new account, you get 100 points. If they connect their wallet, you get 1000 points. Should they end up doing their first quest or playing one game of the web3 deckbuilding strategy game, you will be rewarded with 500 points. Last but not least, if the referral is active by logging in daily for the first 5 days, you will get 1500 points.
You can start referring your friends by sharing them your referral link, which you can find in the account settings page of the Questing Realms platform.
What Is the $NXI Token?
The $NXI token is the core governance and utility token of NXI, a scalable digital entertainment ecosystem that consists of its own web3 gaming publisher and development studio, Nexus Interactive, who made Everdawn: Champions, the Questing Realms platform, and a casual Telegram game and new IP: Billionaire’s Path, which just launched this week with its own airdrop pool.
This ecosystem is set to expand with a variety of new web3 games and IPs, all of which are set to utilize the $NXI token in various different ways. Whether its published games or developed in house, all of them will use $NXI as the main currency for transactions. The token will also be used for gamified staking systems that unlock a range of benefits to encourage long-term engagement. These perks could include discounts, better play to earn earnings, access to exclusive events and gated features, and more.
This web3-powered ecosystem will also feature user-friendly AI UGC tools to foster the creation of user-generated content, allowing anyone to create assets and varied content that can be bought with $NXI. Certain creator tools will have a premium tier that only $NXI holders can access.
The total supply of $NXI is 5 billion, but info on how exactly all of the supply is allocated does not seem to be available at the time of writing. For a more detailed overview on utility though, you can check out this section of the whitepaper.
This week, NXI announced Mon Protocol as their official launch partner, and you can look forward to seeing new quests pop up as a result of this partnership.
