We usually think about free is totally free like just an airdrop. But actually, all of those things are not totally free. It is only a reward for completing a simple task. I don't think it is really encouraging but for those who did nothing, why not try?
I could say that this is a good way to start earning in crypto for newcomers but just to remind them also that be sure that they are visiting the right/legit site otherwise, they are just wasting their time. And aside from that, we must not expect huge rewards.
Airdrops are not what used to be, years ago the only thing you needed to do to claim an airdrop was to install a compatible wallet and get your tokens at the correct address, but then the developers began to ask for KYC, that was bad enough as now you needed to give them your personal information, but then they had the brilliant idea of asking for tasks to be completed in exchange for those coins, but then that was no longer an airdrop and instead you were just bounty hunting, a thankless and unprofitable activity these days.
It was expected that something like this would happen one day. When participants tried to game the system, it was obvious that the project would test new ideas to eliminate Sybil users to make sure only dedicated community members got the profits of the airdrop. In its early years airdrop was easy and simple but full of scam projects. The rules are getting harder and scam projects will stop coming eventually. If we look at the evolution of airdrop then it is obvious that the methods became more mature and the industry demanded that developers develop projects with their own distinct purpose to conduct airdrop campaign, some platforms like zealy, galaxy, taskon serve that purpose.
