Airdropping NFTs

Just like with ETH transfers, our platform offers multiple methods for distributing NFTs. The available methods are:

  • Per Holder: Allows you to send ETH to specific keyholders you select. The ETH is distributed evenly among the selected keyholders.

  • Per Key: Similar to the Holder method, but the ETH is distributed based on the number of keys each selected holder owns.

  • Per Lotto: You select an amount of ETH to send, and one of your keyholders is randomly chosen to receive it. The page will display the percentage chance each holder has to win.

  • Per Raffle: You choose an amount of ETH to send, and one keyholder is selected to receive it. The likelihood of winning is proportional to the number of keys a holder owns.

In addition to this, we have two available options for what you can do with your NFTs. You can either choose to use our service to distribute an NFT to your holders, or you can create a new NFT to airdrop to as many holders as you would like.

These options, titled 'Inventory' and 'Create, are seen here:

To distribute an NFT from your wallet (inventory), the process is as follows:

  1. Search for User: Identify the user whose keyholders you want to airdrop to. This can be yourself or another user.

  2. Select 'Distribute' Tab: On the right-hand side, click on the 'Distribute' tab. Choose the ERC-721 NFT you wish to airdrop to your holders.

  3. Choose Distribution Method: Pick from 'Per Holder,' 'Lotto Per Holder,' or 'Raffle Per Key' depending on your preferred method.

  4. Complete Distribution: If using Lotto or Raffle, randomize the selection for distribution.

  5. Initiate Transfer: Click the 'Send it!' button in the 'Distribution' tab and complete the transactions to send your ERC-721.

To create an NFT, the process is as follows:

  1. Search for User: Identify the user whose keyholders you want to airdrop to. This can be yourself or another user.

  2. Select 'Create' Tab: On the right-hand side, click on the 'Create' tab. We have made the choice to only support creating ERC-1155s through Keydrop. If you'd like information on the difference between an ERC-1155 and ERC-721, refer to the Glossary page.

  3. Select the Royalty Percentage: Select the amount of royalties you would like to receive from secondary sales, this can be any amount up to 6.9%

  4. Fill Out the Form:

    • First-Time Users: On your first use of the 'Create' function, you will deploy a new contract. The title of the artwork you provide will be used as the initial collection name.

    • Returning Users: For any subsequent creations, the ERC-1155 tokens will be minted under the contract initially deployed. This allows you to have a continuous collection under the same contract for all your keydrops on Keydrop.

  5. Choose Distribution Method: Pick from 'Per Holder', 'Per Key', 'Lotto Per Holder', or 'Raffle Per Key' depending on your preferred method.

  6. Select Keydrop Recipients: Depending on which distribution method you selected, you may have to select the people you wish to drop to. If you would like to select all your keyholders, select the checkbox next to 'Key Holders', as seen below.

  7. Complete Distribution: If using Lotto or Raffle, randomize the selection for distribution.

  8. Initiate Creation and Distribution: Click the 'Send it!' button and complete the transactions to finish the creation and distribution of your ERC-1155.
