Blast has done a great job of attracting attention as a place for cryptocurrency enthusiasts to make money.

The main way the network achieves this is through its native yield, as ETH and stablecoin holders can earn 4% and 5% per year on Blast, respectively. L2 also aims to improve its reputation through its ongoing Blast Points and Blast Gold programs. Half of Blast's upcoming airdrop will be issued to Points holders, and the other half will be issued to Gold holders.

Note that initially, only ETH and USDB holders can earn Points, and only Blast app users can earn Gold. However, as the memecoin and NFT scenes began to take off on Blast, the L2 team decided to provide a way for passive token and NFT holders to earn Gold rewards.

Blast Jackpot is a recently launched game that regularly rewards token and NFT holders on Blast.

Each block mined on the network has a base chance of triggering a jackpot, and when this happens, a random token or NFT is chosen as the winner. Everyone who enters a winning asset will receive a portion of the latest jackpot pool. The odds of selecting a token are higher than NFTs, but all assets on the platform, except WETH and USDB, are eligible.

The program lets Blast users diversify their assets on the network for a chance to win the jackpot.

If you’re interested in giving it a try, getting started is simple, but you’ll need to log in to the Blast Airdrop dashboard first if you haven’t already. If you need an invite code, dozens of users have commented on the Blast “Referral Link” quest in our Airdrop Hunter Hub!

Once you’re set up on Blast, transfer some ETH via the native bridge or a fast third-party bridge like Relay, and then you can start acquiring assets to get into the Blast Jackpot.

Once you have your desired assets ready in your wallet, simply head to the Blast Jackpot page, scroll down and select the "Add Tokens or NFTs to Your Deck" option, then select your desired assets. You can enter up to eight different assets in the available deck slots like this!

At this point, it's just a waiting game - you can return to this jackpot page to manage your entries. Keep track of any of your assets over time to see if they are future winners.

If you're lucky, you'll win at least one big block of Blast Gold before the official Blast airdrop, and if you're really lucky, you might win multiple blocks - after all, they only have so many assets on the young L2 right now.
