Project reality
Why the project matters
- What it does
- Zealous Swap is the first automated market maker (AMM) decentralized exchange built on the Kaspa blockchain ecosystem. It aims to provide a secure, efficient, and user-friendly platform for token swaps and liquidity provision, leveraging a V2 AMM architecture combined with an innovative NFT-based fee tier system that rewards early adopters. The protocol incorporates sustainability and security features such as an insurance fund protecting users from security incidents and protocol-owned liquidity to ensure stable trading conditions, supporting the deep liquidity and long-term viability of the Kaspa DeFi ecosystem. It represents the foundational decentralized trading infrastructure for the newly emerging Kaspa blockchain ecosystem, often regarded as the "Uniswap moment" for Kaspa, signaling a critical milestone in the ecosystem's growth and adoption.

Participation guide
To participate in the Zealous Swap airdrop and maximize rewards, follow these steps:\n- Set up a compatible wallet that supports the Kaspa blockchain network.\n- Acquire Kaspa tokens (KAS) and fund your wallet to engage with the Zealous Swap platform.\n- Engage with the Zealous Swap decentralized exchange by swapping tokens and providing liquidity to pools, as early activity may be rewarded.\n- Explore the NFT-based fee tier system by acquiring or interacting with NFTs if available, as they might influence your fee tier and rewards.\n- Stay active and participate in community events or governance if announced, as such involvement often increases eligibility.\n- Follow official Zealous Swap channels for announcements regarding the airdrop distribution schedule and any snapshot dates.\n- Ensure you meet all tasks required by the airdrop, such as holding tokens during snapshot periods or completing specific interaction tasks on the platform.\n- Keep your wallet and private keys secure to avoid loss of airdrop tokens.\n- Monitor your wallet after announced distribution to claim or receive your airdrop tokens.
Research Refresh: Participation Notes (2026-06-16)
- Check the official website and X account before taking any action.
- Use the project testnet or faucet if still available.
- Make small, repeated swaps or bridges only if you understand the network and fee risks.
- For staking, deposits, lending, or liquidity actions, size positions conservatively and track wallet risk.
- Complete official quests or points campaigns and keep activity consistent rather than one-off.
- Avoid unofficial claim links, copied forms, and DMs; use only official domains/social links.
Editorial guidance
How to improve eligibility
Research Refresh: Maximization Notes (2026-06-16)
- Prioritize official, repeatable activities that are visible on-chain or in the project dashboard.
- Keep one consistent wallet history for this ecosystem unless the project explicitly supports account linking.
- Document completed quests, points, campaign IDs, and wallet addresses for later checker/claim windows.
- Do not chase high-cost volume unless the project has a clear, credible incentive program.

Scoring Recalibration (2026-06-16)
- Score recalibrated with stricter evidence gates: direct airdrop/points/claim evidence, actionable path, current official signals, expected upside, effort/cost, and stale-evidence penalties.
- Generic project strength, funding, or broad activity no longer qualifies for S/A without direct opportunity evidence.
