Elyon Chain — Public Testnet & Confirmed Airdrop Guide

Elyon Chain — Public Testnet [Confirmed Airdrop]

Project Type: EVM-compatible Layer 1 (APOS Consensus)
Potential Reward: Confirmed Airdrop / Points

Quick Info

  • Funding Status: Early stage; specific VC funding amounts pending
  • Cost or Gas: $0 (Free - uses Testnet Faucet)
  • Competition Level: Low (~59k wallets, many suspected to be bots/empty accounts), offering high upside for early positioning on the leaderboard

⚠️ Critical Notes

  • Sybil Protection/Filtering: While there are ~60k wallets registered, expect significant filtering where only certain waypoints qualify if any account is empty or bot-like. Focus on complete profile setup to secure position properly.
  • Network Setup: Ensure you add the Elyon network to your wallet manually via airdrop.elyon.network prior to attempting transactions.

⚡ Strategy & Lifehacks

  • Efficiency Hack: Most tasks can be completed in just several minutes because they reside entirely within a free testnet environment—no real capital ($EX_TOKENs > 0 ability needed do not apply here).
  • Leaderboard Maximization: To climb higher in the ranking and move past the initial mass of users, prioritize delegating ELN tokens and minting badges rather than just doing basic social links.
  • The 'Empty Wallet' Filter (Alpha): A large portion나 current user count consists of low-activity accounts; completing all steps including delegation ensures you pass through potential filters that may exclude inactive addresses later.

Action Steps

  1. Connect your wallet at airdp.elyon.network.
    Pro-tip: Add/Configure the custom ownly netowrk first if it doesn't auto-populate or prompt for manual addition.
  2. Verify your email address properly.
  3. Obtain waypoints by using the Faucet (get any amount of testnet ELN) via admintestnet.elyon.network/faucet.html.
  4. Execute an outbound transaction to ANY EVM address to activate account activity.
  5. Delegate exactly 10 ELNto a chosen validator (
    Note: This is key for certain profile point calculations).
  6. Mint your first badge available on the platform.
  7. Link your Social Media / X (Twitter) profiles safely.
  8. (Optional but recommended) Create and share a post about Elyon Chains project on X to maximize visibility score.
