DeFi Farmer

Your guide to 2024 DeFi Summer and the emerging Points-Meta

The days of 2020 style yield-farming are back, albeit slightly different, some might say improved with points.

Points are the growth meta for defi protocols of 2024. Defi projects reward early users, referrals and social media activity with loyalty points. These points can be converted in a token allocation in a possible airdrop.

To grow usage and TVL, protocols now have this interesting growth gamification available in their quiver.

For users on the other hand this makes it easier to optimize for yield and airdrops of new projects, since the reward mechanism is out in the open.

Below is a list with projects that currently have point programs, let the point farming 🚜 beginn and share the list with your degen friends. By using the referral links shared below you will support the research necessary for this content, thank you for that!
