Honestly, airdrops are becoming more difficult to farm, especially the popular ones. I’m starting to get concerned. The Eigen airdrop was great, I ended up with over $2K just for using the network, without even knowing about the airdrop in advance. It wasn’t as hyped, so not many people were prepared for it.
The more people that prepare for these airdrops, the smaller the rewards. Take Get Grass, for example, they used my internet 24/7 for months, and in return, I got 6 cents... I’m frustrated. I saw it trading in pre-market at $0.96, and if it lists at $1, my 6 Grass would be worth $6. Sure, it’s free, but it hardly feels worth the effort.
Airdrops nowadays are full of uncertainty; its like a box full of chocolate, you never know what's you're going to get, There were airdrops that people have worked day and night and even paid for upgrade only to get dusts after the distribution, so they're more disappointed now, its far different from the airdrops of old but in the old days there were only hundreds of participants, now we have millions, that's because Cryptocurrency is so popular now
