In the old days, users used a platform only once and suddenly an airdrop was announced. That happened in the first one, the Uniswap airdrop.
The good times were when I was eligible for the Uniswap airdrop, at that time I was forced to sell my Uni for $20 because I needed money, but for me it was big enough money to support my life.
And the airdrops become more and more difficult
At the moment there is a trend for retro airdrops, it's a shame that airdrops like this require quite a lot of money, because the terms are usually swap, try features, send and receive transactions. and all of that costs money, especially on the ERC20 network. we already know how much one swap on the erc20 network can last, it can reach $20 when gwei eth is high. now airdrops are not as beautiful as they used to be.
