Roam

How to Farm the Roam Airdrop

Step 1: Download the Roam App

Install the app on iOS or Android, then sign up with Apple, Google, Facebook, email, or a wallet. Allow the OpenRoaming profile to install when prompted. Enter referral code 72676176 during sign-up to claim a 30 Roam Points bonus on top of the standard welcome reward.

Step 2: Pick Your Path and Start Earning

Roam works for two kinds of users, and you can do both:

• Connect via eSIM: Open the eSIM tab and activate a Global eSIM or a Premium eSIM (data, voice, and SMS, $20 minimum top-up, KYC required). Local rates apply automatically, with no roaming or monthly fees, and usage earns Roam Points.
• Contribute hotspots: Open the Explore tab, find Roam hotspots near you, and check in to earn points. Adding new WiFi locations to the map pays bonus points, and rarer Stickers you collect unlock larger burn quotas later.

Step 3: Work Through Quests, Events, and Games

Tap the + button in the center of the bottom tab bar to open the full features dashboard, which includes Earn, Points Burn, Stickers, Events, Quests, Leaderboard, and Roam Games like Bitbang and Paparun.

Each section has its own earn mechanic. Quests and Events are time-sensitive, so check back often for bonus point windows.

Step 4: Create with RoamAI

Open RoamAI from the app or the website Ecosystem menu and use your existing Roam balance to chat, generate images, or produce video across 20+ models. A top-up of about $1 in $ROAM is enough to start, and usage earns Roam Points.

When Roam runs a Creative Challenge, submit your work with the campaign reference and your referral code to enter the prize pool.

Step 5: Convert Roam Points into $ROAM

In the features menu, tap Points Burn to open the Burning Pool and pick your pool:

• General Pool: Open to everyone, minimum 500 points, fed by app quests and check-ins.
• Miner Pool: For node owners only (such as Rainier MAX 60 users), with higher conversion rates.
• Sticker Pool: Rarity-based quota for users collecting Stickers through check-ins.

Points must be held for at least 48 hours before burning. Set your cycle count (10 minimum, 1,000 maximum), confirm, and your $ROAM becomes claimable once the cycles finish.

Tips for Maximizing Your $ROAM Rewards

Check in everywhere you go. Each certified WiFi check-in earns points, and adding brand-new hotspots to the map pays a bonus, so wider coverage grows your balance faster.

Refer through the app, not just at sign-up. Tap Account, then Invite to Earn, and share your code. You and your friend each get 30 Roam Points when they connect and check in for the first time, with no referral cap.

Hold Stickers for bigger burns. Rarer Stickers raise your quota in the Sticker Pool, giving you more room to convert points into $ROAM later.

Time your burns around the 48-hour hold. Points need to sit for at least 48 hours before they qualify, so plan conversions ahead instead of burning freshly earned points.

Frequently Asked Questions

When is the Roam airdrop and TGE?

Roam’s TGE already happened on March 6, 2025, when $ROAM listed on exchanges. A new large retroactive airdrop has not been announced, but you can still earn $ROAM continuously by burning Roam Points in the app.

Is the Roam airdrop free to join?

Yes. You can earn Roam Points for free through WiFi check-ins, adding hotspots, quests, and referrals. Some activities cost a little, such as a roughly $1 RoamAI top-up or an eSIM purchase, but the core point-earning loop needs no upfront investment.

How do Roam Points convert into $ROAM?

You burn points in the Burning Pool to mint $ROAM at a market-driven rate. Points must be held 48 hours first, then you choose the General, Miner, or Sticker pool and set a cycle count between 10 and 1,000 before confirming.

Conclusion

The Roam airdrop is less a one-time event than a continuous loop: connect through WiFi or eSIM, complete quests, create with RoamAI, and convert the Roam Points you earn into $ROAM through the Burning Pool.

With the TGE behind it and a Bitcoin-style decay emission running, the way to benefit now is steady participation rather than waiting on a single snapshot.
