As announced from Steemhunt, the team is currently preparing an IEO for the HUNT tokens and also started a survey for Steemians to ask about the price opinion for HUNT tokens. As the IEO is coming closer, I would like to summarize the current options to join the airdrop for Steemhunt HUNT tokens.
0. Repository
https://github.com/Steemhunt/web
1. User Score
An important part that needs to be mentioned regarding the airdrop for Steemhunt is, that a lot of airdrops are influenced by the user score of Steemhunt. It means in some categories it is necessary to have a higher user score at Steemhunt to gain more HUNT tokens.
2. HUNT tokens Airdrop Category
You can find an overview on the PC version of the wallet from Steemhunt what the categories are for HUNT tokens airdrop. Some airdrops are very specific or do need specific tasks or conditions, so the following order is based on my personal opinion on how easy it would be accessible for Steemians.
a. Delegation (90K per day)
The easiest part to gain HUNT tokens is to delegate Steem Power to the account 
b. Hunting Post Voters (40K per day)
Another easy way to gain HUNT tokens is to go to Steemhunt, log in and upvote the hunts you like. Based on your upvoting power (based on your SP) and weight, HUNT tokens will be allocated for your upvotes. Please make sure that you upvote products from the "Today" tab, as these are the hunts that are considered for the post voting airdrop. The airdrop based on upvoting hunting posts is not influenced by the User score.
c. Comment Upvotes - 10K per day
Similar to the Hunting Post Voters airdrop, comments on "Today" tab hunts are also considered for a separate budget of HUNT token airdrop. When you upvote comments from other hunters under a hunt you think are good, this will also be rewarded with HUNT tokens. The airdrop based on upvoting hunting posts comments is not influenced by the User score.
d. Boost Hunt
Boost Hunt is a function that enables to switch your rewards from your posted hunts into HUNT tokens. Normally you would receive your reward in STU (Steem, SBD and Steempower) but the principle behind Boost hunt is that the hunter is setting the beneficiary 100% to Steemhunt and Steemhunt is rewarding the STU based on a daily changing price in HUNT tokens.
e. Steemhunt Chrome Extension - max 50 HUNT tokens per day/user
You can install a Chrome browser extension, which you can download here. On the upper right side you will find a place where you can input your Steem account and after that whenever you open a new tab you will get based on your user score a fixed amount of HUNT tokens.
f. Shuffle Button Lottery
Steemhunt is a ranking board and the hunts are shown based on their upvoted ranking. To give undervalued hunts a better chance for visibility the random button was introduced and also a gamification factor with an airdrop has been implemented.
To further promote the usage of the random shuffle button, we decided to divide the lottery time into 4 slots per day - 0-6 | 6-12 | 12-18 | 18-24 - based on KST (Korean Standard Timezone), and now you can win between 1 to 10 HUNT tokens once every 6 hours period by clicking the shuffle button on the “Today” tab. Theoretically, you can earn a maximum of 40 HUNT tokens per day.
g. Social Airdrop - 90K per day
Along with the delegation airdrop, the social airdrop is the biggest portion of all Steemhunt airdrops. The reason for this strategic move is to give social media influencers the chance to generate traffic from outside of the Steem community and earn a big portion of the airdrop.
- How to participate
We distribute 90,000 tokens per day. You can click the SHARE button on the hunting post or on your profile tab, and share to any other social platforms such as Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, etc. HUNT tokens will be assigned based on the share of the total daily traffic generated from all the shared posts via the social channels. To calculate your portion for the reward, your shared count will turn into an effective count. The two main factors to calculate the effective count are the date you shared the hunting post and your hunter level.
The first date you’ve shared the post will have the highest effective count and will keep decreasing day by day.
An important part is that social airdrop is also coupled with the user score. So hunters will gain more tokens from the social share airdrops based on their user score and by applying the user score weights on the effective counts.
For anybody who is good at spreading news and gaining followers outside of the Steem economy, this is a good opportunity to increase the wealth in their Steemhunt wallet.
h. Twitter bounty

i. Influencer x3 HUNTToken reward (from voting reward pool)
Steemhunt has decided to turn the top upvoting hunters automatically to influencers (when the minimum required conditions are fulfilled). Curating hunts is a very important part of the Steemhunt community. Influencers are the top curators with more upvoting power within Steemhunt and coming with the benefit of getting an x3 reward of HUNT tokens on their upvoting. Influencers are selected by the IES(Influencer Evaluation Score).
j. Medium Writer - 5000 HUNT tokens per week.
