We just cannot help it. Unlike before, most of the airdrops are non-paying nowadays. But to those who do not have the capability to invest, they are left with no other option but to comply and try as many projects as possible. There are also other ways to earn such as targetting for whitelist spots and selling it to serious investors.

New airdrops I guess are thru binance launchpads which requires participants to comply with minimum staking and investing procedures. But as I've said, not all people in this industry has the ability to do so. There's just no easy way to earn profit anyway.
