Almanak Airdrop Qualification Overview

Almanak is an AI-powered DeFi platform that deploys automated yield strategies across multiple chains using AI agents (AI Swarm). Users deposit USDC into vaults to mint alUSD, which powers strategies for yield farming. The platform has over $100M in TVL as of late November 2025. The $ALMANAK token generation event (TGE) is scheduled for mid-December 2025, shortly after the Pendle alUSD pool expires on December 11, 2025. Season 1 points earned through on-chain and social activities convert 1:1 to $ALMANAK tokens with no vesting or locks. Private sale price was $0.09 per token at a $90M FDV.

To qualify for the airdrop, users must accumulate Almanak Points (XP) during Season 1 (ongoing as of November 30, 2025; Stage 3 ends in December). Points are distributed daily around 12:00 AM UTC and require an on-chain wallet connected to the platform. There is no minimum threshold specified, but higher points correlate to larger allocations. Total airdrop supply allocation includes:

• 100% of Season 1 points to participants.

• 0.55% of total supply via Cookie InfoFi campaign (top 500 ranks, 80% to top performers).

• 0.1% via Galxe loyalty quests (top rankers over 3 months).

Eligibility requires:

• Connecting a self-custodial wallet (e.g., Rainbow for low ETH gas fees of $0.05–$0.30).

• Completing basic onboarding quests (e.g., follows, joins for 35 points).

• On-chain activity: Deposits must be in USDC on Ethereum or Base chains; no international stocks, crypto indexes, or non-DeFi actions qualify.

• No sybil detection details released, but protocol-aligned tasks (e.g., deposits) are prioritized over social ones.

Earning Method	Points Mechanics	Requirements & Timelines	Estimated Yield Example
Vault Deposits	Base points from USDC deposits into AI vaults (mint alUSD); daily accrual.	$1K TVL = 6 points/day; scales to $10K = 60 points/day. Season ends December.	$1K deposit: ~180 points/month.
DeFi Strategies	Points for deploying alUSD in strategies via Strategy Builder (new users get free credits).	Build/test/deploy one strategy: Up to 200 points initial + ongoing.	95 points from "Know Almanak" quiz bundle.
Referrals	Bonus points from referred users' TVL/deposits.	Share invite link; 4x multiplier on first 72 hours for new users. Use: https://app.almanak.co/invite?code=BAbPKpAp	Varies; e.g., $1K ref TVL = 6 points/day passive.
Galxe Quests	Loyalty points from tasks; 0.1% supply to top ranks.	Daily/recurring tasks (social > protocol-aligned); 3-month campaign started late November. Link: https://app.galxe.com/quest/Almanak/GCUp4tYTKA	50 points from quiz; up to 200 from wallet creation.
YT-alUSD Holding (Fastest Method)	5x multiplier on points; simulates high TVL exposure. Daily accrual until Dec 11.	Buy YT-alUSD on Pendle (~2% entry fee); hold tiers ($30K/100K/300K equivalent). Sell post-snapshot to avoid decay.	$100–$300 position = 70–90 points/day; $250 YT = 503 points in 7 days (~$28 fees). 170x Cookie boost.

Highlight: YT-alUSD Method for Fastest Points Accumulation

The YT-alUSD (Yield Token for alUSD) method on Pendle is the most efficient for rapid points farming, offering a 5x multiplier and up to 170x in Cookie boosts. It allows low-capital entry to mimic high TVL (e.g., $100 buys ~$25K exposure). Steps:

1. Acquire alUSD via Almanak vault deposit.

2. On Pendle, buy YT-alUSD 30–60 minutes before 12:00 AM UTC snapshot (e.g., 11:00 PM UTC).

3. Hold for accrual; sell 15 minutes after (12:15 AM UTC) to minimize ~$3–$5 fees per $250 trade and daily decay.

4. Points appear next day; repeat until December 11 expiry (points continue post-expiry until TGE). This yields 70–90 points daily at low cost, far outpacing base deposits. Risks include 2% entry fees, yield decay, and market volatility (YT trades implied APY). Use Rainbow Wallet for cheap gas. No other method matches this speed without higher capital.

Cookie InfoFi Campaign Details

Cookie.fun runs InfoFi campaigns tracking mindshare (social + capital activity) for token rewards. Almanak's campaign allocates 0.55% of $ALMANAK supply to CSnappers (Cookie users), with 80% to top 500 ranks based on Capital Mindshare leaderboard. Almanak points directly influence rankings; YT-alUSD provides a 170x multiplier (e.g., $300 position ranks as $51K). Campaign ends at TGE (mid-December); multipliers active until December 11.

Participation steps:

1. Connect wallet on https://www.cookie.fun/.

2. Complete social tasks (tweets, follows) for base mindshare.

3. Deposit/hold Almanak assets (e.g., YT-alUSD) for capital boosts.

4. Use referral: https://www.cookie.fun/QIpRyRnC (earns referrer points from your activity).

5. Monitor leaderboard; top ranks claim post-TGE.

This stacks with Almanak points (e.g., deposit = TGE points + Cookie boost). No minimum stake, but $100+ in YT-alUSD optimizes for top 500. Downsides: $150+ burn risk if multipliers expire without TGE alignment; 2% fees on entries.

Security note: CertiK audit ongoing (BBB score ~79/100). Always DYOR; points are non-binding until TGE snapshot. For real-time updates, check @almanak on X.
