Students Earning 100K Plus Yearly Part-Time in Web3 Your Guide to Landing Web3 Project Whitelists

in #web3 • 2 months ago

✍ For individuals seeking to enter or recently joining Web3 with limited time and financial resources, engaging in part-time "luming" (grinding) for project whitelists represents an optimal strategy.

👉 This tutorial is structured into three sections to provide a comprehensive overview.

Part 1: Beginner Stage

1. What is a Whitelist?

A whitelist (abbreviated as WL) serves as a pre-approval roster, enabling participants to secure priority access for purchasing NFTs or tokens prior to public sales.
Two primary categories exist:

  • GTD (Guaranteed Whitelist) — ensures guaranteed minting (purchase) without competition.
  • FCFS (First-Come-First-Serve whitelist) — often termed a "lucky whitelist," it typically experiences oversubscription, requiring participants to compete based on speed, technical proficiency, and gas fees.

Example:
Consider a project releasing 5,000 NFTs with a presale price of 0.1 ETH and a public sale at 0.15 ETH. GTD holders avoid rushing and purchase at the lower price. FCFS holders compete for approximately 800 NFTs out of over 3,000 whitelist spots, necessitating rapid responses and elevated gas fees (similar to auction fees paid to miners) to succeed.

2. What is an NFT?

NFT stands for Non-Fungible Token (非同质化代币), representing a unique digital asset on a blockchain, akin to a digital collectible. Each NFT is distinct and irreplaceable.
NFTs reside on blockchains such as Ethereum and Solana, with the blockchain functioning as an immutable public ledger documenting ownership and transaction history, impervious to tampering or forgery.

Example:
The renowned NFT artwork "Everydays: The First 5000 Days" by artist Beeple sold for $69 million in 2021. Another prominent project is Bored Ape Yacht Club, which generated numerous overnight millionaires.

To explore NFTs, register an OKX account via:
OKX Official Registration (May require VPN) or Backup Link

3. Preparation: Tools You Need

  • Discord (DC): Widely used by projects for community engagement and whitelist events; adhere strictly to server verification protocols.
  • Twitter (TW): Essential for following project announcements and updates.
  • Telegram (TG) or “飞机”: Common platforms for community discussions, airdrops, and notifications.

4. Wallet

A wallet is fundamental in Web3, serving as a secure repository for assets and facilitating interactions with blockchain applications. Setup typically involves:
Install wallet plugin ➡️ set password ➡️ back up seed phrase (助记词) ➡️ complete registration.

Recommended: OKX Wallet supports over 100 public chains without manual network configuration.

Important: Wallets function like password-protected bank cards but require no KYC; possession of your seed phrase enables fund theft.
NEVER copy or share your seed phrase or private keys!
Manually transcribe them, store duplicates securely, and maintain strict confidentiality.

Part 2: Intermediate Stage

Upon mastering foundational concepts, accelerate whitelist grinding using insights from three years of experience.

Common whitelist strategies center on the "Four Old Sets":

(1) Create content (创作)
(2) Be active (活跃)
(3) Participate in events (参加活动)
(4) Join lotteries (抽奖活动)

1. Content Creation

Upon joining a community, projects often share NFT-related imagery. If artistically inclined, swiftly produce derivative works and distribute them. For inspiration, utilize platforms like Xiaohongshu, Qiantu.com, or Nitu.com.

Non-artists may outsource tasks via platforms such as Xianyu for approximately 50-80 RMB, ensuring clear communication of desired elements.

Pro tip: Identify rule loopholes.
Example: A project awarded a special identity for art submissions, enabling entry into a "battle royale" lottery for whitelist spots. By strategically employing public images, I secured 10 whitelist positions that later appreciated 20-fold.

2. Participate in Events

Projects host diverse events including singing, dancing, handicrafts, art, and writing threads. Focus on strengths—e.g., submit multiple entries via a main account while distributing others across sub-accounts. Maintain consistent activity across all accounts within the community.

Leverage acquaintances' talents; for instance, have a vocalist friend record a clip under your Discord handle to enhance success odds.

3. Be Active

This method demands the highest effort, requiring daily engagement, a consistent persona (avoid frequent username changes), and amicable interactions with moderators and members. Persistence yields rewards.

4. Luck Whitelist (Lottery)

Success hinges largely on participation volume and fortune. Engage extensively in giveaways on Discord, Twitter, AlphaBot, and other community platforms.
