The Pixels gaming community is among the many cryptocurrency traders that enjoy receiving rewards for completing blockchain transactions with additional cryptocurrency.

When Pixels moved to Axie Infinity’s Ronin blockchain back in October, interest in the browser-based classic MMORPG game increased. According to CryptoSlam data, Pixels witnessed over $3 million in NFT land sales in the previous month despite some bot activity in the game.

Late last year, Luke Barwikowski, the company’s founder, promised Pixels fans that the team would be “loud as hell” about the airdrop they had planned for the introduction of their second cryptocurrency token, PIXEL, and that there would be no surprises (since scams involving “surprise” crypto airdrops are sadly popular on social media).

Now, we have all the details on the upcoming PIXEL airdrop.

“We’re just getting started, but Pixels has been around for two years,” Barwikowski stated in a blog entry that was posted early on Friday. “We have big plans, like working with PIXEL to create a sustainable Web3 ecosystem.”

According to Barwikowski, in order to be eligible for the PIXEL airdrop, players and cryptocurrency traders must really play the Pixels game. Play-to-airdrop (P2A) is a strategy wherein Pixels will give rewards to users who finish “tough tasks” or in some other way “support the expansion of the ecosystem.”

FYI: You will not have to sign any transactions to claim airdrops from Pixels.

The allocation will be done off-chain and will use our existing withdraw/deposit infrastructure.

Be especially careful of any scam links that ask you to sign something over the next month.
