It's getting harder these days to qualify for an airdrop. We can blame airdrop hunters for trying to game the system. I've only got lucky once with the Uniswap airdrop. Managed to cash out around $2k worth of UNI before the dump. While the reward wasn't that much, it's still better than nothing.

These days you need to use "De-Fi" projects to meet the airdrop requirements. Some projects even require you spend or trade a certain amount in crypto to receive rewards. While stricter requirements are good to keep airdrop farmers away, they often leave the "average Joe" out of the picture. Especially when you need to spend money to participate. If you really want to make money, I'd suggest you look for other options. Who knows if airdrops become history due to increasing regulations in the crypto sector? Smiley
Wherever there is opportunity, there are abusers. Project teams also struggled to find ways to detect cheaters with new barriers and new tasks, such as needing to spend transaction fees or add LP. I believe that genuine airdrop hunters will still be rewarded for their efforts.

Currently we are welcoming DeFi summer, many new projects in re-staking field have appeared and are very successful. Airdrops from them are creating an opportunity for airdrop hunters to get rewards worth thousands of USD and change their financial position in this market. I haven't seen any airdrops that require KYC so everything is still pretty good. I think besides bounty campaigns, airdrops are still a good choice for hunters in this market.
