Your points are valid. I do think that most person have gain awareness about bitcoins through the airdrop but this awareness is not enough to make them a potential investors on the long run as many of them only seek for daily bread through airdrop not because they care about investing. The economic situation in the country has forced many person to see airdrop as an escape root to escaping debt and living below standard.
For every one that was brought in through airdrop , who is still wondering about what the space is all about should seek for knowledge in a proper way because a lot of people seek incomplete knowledge by glancing through pages they should have properly read through .
Secondly , newbie should not believe that they are missing out until they rush to invest. Getting the right knowledge before investing help safeguard your asset and protect you against scam
