Overview
At Linera, we’re always looking for ways to bring our community closer and celebrate the people who help spread the word about our project. That’s why we’re excited to introduce Drops, our brand-new points program designed to reward you for engaging with Linera on social media.
Launched concurrently with Linera’s Testnet II: Babbage, Drops is a community-driven initiative that’s now live. It’s a fun and simple way to earn points by sharing your thoughts, creating content, and joining conversations about Linera on social media. Whether you’re tweeting about Linera, replying to threads, or retweeting updates, you earn points based on the quality of your content and the engagement your posts generate. The more people interact with your content, the more points you rack up!

FAQs
Q: Are these points redeemable or qualify me for an airdrop?
A: No—Drops are purely non‑monetary XP. They’re an engagement mechanism, not a promise of future token rewards.
Q: Do I need the Lineran role to earn testnet points?
A: Yes! Get the Lineran role on Guild. This role is required to earn XP on Discord by creating memes / art / posts / other content, as well as participating in quizzes and game tournaments. There is no XP for chatting in the Linera Discord.
Q: Why did my tweet submission get rejected?
A: Possibly because it didn’t include the required phrase/tag. The required tag phrase is automatically inserted when you open Twitter from the Drops interface. This exact phrase must appear somewhere in your tweet in order for it to gain points.
Q: How do I get referral points?
A: Share your referral link with friends. A user must complete the required Drops quests in order for you to receive referral points.
Q: I have an issue. What should I do?
A: Open a ticket on Discord.
Q: When did Testnet II: Babbage launch?
A: Babbage went live on April 17, 2025. You can read more about it here.
Q: How long will the Drops campaign be active?
A: There is no set end date. For the latest updates on Drops, be sure to follow us on X and join our Discord community.
Q: What makes Linera unique?
A: We aim to bring web2-level responsiveness to web3 by removing traditional blockchain bottlenecks through the introduction of microchains. Check out our whitepaper for more details.
Q: What comes after Babbage?
A: Following Babbage, we’ve got two more testnets on the way as we gear up for our mainnet launch later this year. You can learn more about our roadmap here.
