December is generally always a pretty lucrative month for crypto enthusiasts, thanks to the many different airdrops. Serious opportunities are also expected in the last days of 2025, as the airdrop of projects such as zkSync or the long-awaited MetaMask is expected. Many second-tier networks, AI platforms, cross-chain protocols and Web3 marketplaces are also offering their rewards this month. Early adopters and testnet participants can always expect significant rewards. Below we take a look at five promising projects and their December airdrops.
LayerZero V2
A Low Zero is a well-known cross-chain protocol that enables communication and money movement between different blockchains. Decentralized exchanges, NFT marketplaces, but any project that wants to connect different chains can use them. The December airdrop of the chain’s native token, the ZRO token, will go to those who have actively used the protocol (bridged between chains, completed missions, executed cross-chain transactions). The rewards can be claimed on an official claim portal, but LayerZero has not yet announced a fixed number of tokens but plans to dynamically distribute them to active users.
It is a multi-round distribution and users can increase their chances with more activities. Points will be awarded for the activity, which can be converted into ZRO tokens via the opened application link. The second round of the airdrop started in the fall of 2025 and will end in December, active users can expect a drop. It’s not too late to use one of LayerZero’s flagship projects, Stargate Finance, for those who haven’t activated themselves yet.
Metamask
Not much is expected from an airdrop in 2025, and therefore not even in December. THE Metamask the highly anticipated native token, MASK, is expected to launch in December 2025, and considering the wallet has around 30 million monthly active users, the airdrop could have an especially big impact. The December date is not yet 100% certain, but analysts see a very good chance for it. The airdrop is awarded based on points earned in the MetaMask Rewards program. Points can be obtained through token swap, perpetual futures trading or invitations.
There is no set amount and date yet, but based on the previous ConsenSys airdrop, the Linea reward, it is likely that an amount of around $30 million will be distributed. The tokens must be claimed on the application portal, similar to other major airdrops, but the portal link will be revealed during the official announcement. Even now it is easy to join, after installing the MetaMask wallet you need to join the program in the Rewards menu and activate it.
Open Sea
The most famous NFT marketplace is Open Sea the December airdrop is one of the most anticipated events in the entire NFT sector (there is also hype for the market), aimed at traders, bidders and makers. Anyone who has previously actively used the OpenSea marketplace – to buy, sell or bid on NFTs – can participate. The reward is based on activity, so the more transactions someone has made, the greater the share they receive. The airdrop will open an official request portal on OpenSea’s website, and the request will require a compatible Web3 wallet in addition to the activity. No fixed amount has been announced yet. According to current information, the launch of OpenSea’s official SEA token could even be postponed until the first quarter of 2026. This is important because the claim portal will certainly open during the token generation event.
zkSync
Another project that will definitely get an airdrop in December 2025 is az a zkSync (ZKS). According to the official social communication, the long-awaited main airdrop will begin in December and those who have actively used the zkSync network for transactions or bridging can participate in it. zkSync is an Ethereum-based second-tier scaling solution that uses zero-knowledge rollup technology. The goal is to make Ethereum transactions much faster and cheaper in a secure way.
During the almost certain zkSync airdrop in December, the official zkSync application portal will open, where anyone can see how many ZKS tokens they have after linking their wallet. Authorization is determined by Matter Labs, the developer of zkSync, based on user activity.
Request sor
The Bittensor airdrop is connected to the TAO token ecosystem, which rewards participants in the Bittensor decentralized artificial intelligence network. During the airdrop, active actors in the network, such as miners, validators, stakers, and subnet users, will receive additional TAO tokens. Bittensor is a decentralized AI network where anyone can create, train, and run artificial intelligence models. In December 2025, a particularly important event will take place, the TAO halving, which will reduce daily token issuance from 7,200 TAO to 3,600 TAO.
You can participate in the airdrop by running an AI model in the Bittensor network or by staking a TAO token. To participate you must install a suitable crypto wallet, connect to a subnet via the Bittensor site and be active. The fact that someone stakes a TAO token is already participation. The network distributes rewards into TAO tokens after every 360 blocks, and the activity determines how much the participant receives.
