Blockchain infrastructure project Nexus has launched an early airdrop campaign tied to its upcoming mainnet, giving users a chance to earn points and mint NFTs that could qualify them for future rewards. The campaign follows the announcement of its Q2 2025 testnet rollout and anticipated mainnet launch in Q3 2025. While the exact date of the snapshot for the airdrop has not been disclosed, early participants are encouraged to complete on-chain interactions in advance.
Notably, activity on the earlier devnet is no longer counted toward points. Only actions conducted on Testnet III will be eligible for rewards moving forward.
The platform, backed by leading venture capital firms including Pantera Capital, Dragonfly, Faction VC, and Lightspeed, has raised $27.2 million in funding. Now, Nexus is inviting early users to test its system, earn on-chain points, and potentially secure their share of an upcoming token distribution event.

How to Participate in the Nexus Airdrop
Users can farm points and mint NFTs by following this process:
- Sign Up and Earn Points: To begin earning points, users must visit the official portal.
After connecting a crypto wallet such as MetaMask, users are required to link their X (Twitter) account. Once completed, the platform automatically assigns some points to the connected account.
2. Transfer Devnet Points: The next step involves transferring those earned points to a personal wallet address. Within the app’s wallet section, users can select the “Send” option and choose to transfer points either to their own MetaMask wallet or to other wallet addresses. This action helps register activity on the testnet and contributes to one’s eligibility for the airdrop.
3. Mint a Testnet NFT: Another task that earns additional interaction credit is minting an NFT on the Nexus Testnet. To do this, users must visit a dedicated interface at nexus-nft-example.vercel.app. After connecting their wallet, they must switch the network setting to “Nexus Testnet” and then select the “Mint New NFT” button. Once the minting request is submitted, the wallet prompts for approval. Upon confirming the transaction, the NFT is issued to the user’s wallet on the testnet.
4. Transfer the NFT: After the NFT is minted, the final step involves transferring it. Users are prompted to click on “Transfer NFT,” paste the recipient wallet address, and then confirm the transaction in their wallet. This entire sequence—minting and transferring—further signals user activity and could contribute to eligibility criteria for a token drop.
Completing these steps ensures your interaction is recorded on the Nexus Testnet, potentially qualifying you for the upcoming airdrop.
