In the latter half of 2024, during the popularity of gamified airdrops through mini-apps through mini-apps on the social messaging platform Telegram, BitPinas published an airdrop farming guide on Blum, a decentralized exchange (DEX) that launched its own drop game for its native token, $BLUM.
By The Numbers: As of April 3, 2025, Blum has
- 10.79 million monthly users
- 28.93 million Telegram community members, the second-largest Telegram community next to another tap-to-earn game, Hamster Kombat
- 5.3 million X followers
- 90 million total users
- 2.2 million unique wallets connected to the drop game
- Six seasons in The Open League, the major incentive program in the TON ecosystem that had eight seasons
On April 2, 2025, Blum finally posted its roadmap for the second and third quarters of the year, including the TGE and airdrop of $BLUM.
Blum Airdrop: Eligibility Criteria Explained
In an X post, the Blum team emphasized that to receive $BLUM airdrop rewards, airdrop farmers must have:
- A minimum of 100,000 Blum Points (BP)
- A minimum of 750 Meme Points (MP), or if not, a completed Proof of Activity (POA)
- A minimum of two referrals
Detailed Breakdown: Understanding the Requirements
Blum Points
BPs are the in-game points earned by doing different activities on the mini-app https://t.me/BlumCryptoBot. There are three ways to earn BPs:
- The first is by farming, where players need to click the “Farm BP” button. It is similar to crypto mining simulation games.
- The second is by playing the Drop Game, where players need to tap the falling green flowers within a specific time frame. More BPs can be earned by playing the Drop Game compared to farming.
- The third is by doing the tasks listed on the “Earn” page.
Meme Points
MPs can be earned by trading or creating tokens on Memepad, a crypto launchpad within the mini-app.
It should be noted that those who launch their tokens can earn MPs, which are around 500 points. If the launched token attracts high liquidity and is listed on DEXs for secondary market trading, the one who launched that token will receive an additional 10,000 MPs.
Meanwhile, traders will earn 50 MPs for every $10 in trading funds.
Fastest Way to Achieve 750 MP
- On Blum, go to Wallet > Select Trade To Earn on Meme points > Trade with Trading Bot
Proof of Activity
Proof of Activity is a weekly task where users need to connect their TON wallet to the mini-app and pay a fee.
It should be noted that if an airdrop participant already has the minimum amount of MPs, they are not required to have POA, as they are already eligible.
Referral Requirements
A referral link or code can be secured on the “Frens” page. To be eligible for the $BLUM airdrop, a user must refer at least two new users.
Additional Tips to Maximize Eligibility and Rewards
Take note that the snapshot for the airdrop has not happened yet; therefore, there are still chances to meet the three eligibility criteria.
The Blum team also warned against those using bots to speed up the earning of BPs and MPs.
It is recommended to regularly check updates on Blum’s official channels—Telegram and X—for the exact date and any changes to eligibility.
Timeline
For the second quarter of 2025 alone, it appears that all the activities connected to the $BLUM airdrop campaign will take place.
Moreover, Blum, as a DEX, is said to go multichain in Q2, and more DEXs will be integrated into its system in Q3.
Blum going multichain is expected to produce:
- SOL Memepad in Blum TMA
- Semi-custody wallet integration for TON and SOL
- EVM chains for token launch and trading
- MPC wallet and account abstraction
- Chain abstraction
Beyond the Airdrop: Future Utility of the Blum Token
Since then, $BLUM has been introduced as the utility token within the Blum ecosystem.
This means that $BLUM will be used to pay fees for the “Ultimate Trading App” and access its other features.
There are also advantages to using $BLUM on the DEX, similar to how other utility tokens are used for fees in exchanges, including discounts and future airdrops.
“We’re making this token more than just another hype machine. It’s about real utility within the Blum ecosystem—staking, farming, reducing trading fees, and access to Launchpad & Launchpool distributions.”
