Airdrop in MiniApps is just a hype and now it is no longer worth working on. Reflecting on the airdrop project that has been launched, the income is likely to be very inappropriate for what we do. Therefore, instead of working on airdrop in MiniApps, I often advise some friends to focus on working on retro projects, testnet or running nodes. Because there the stage will provide added value for knowledge about the world of web3. While the results of the airdrop are certainly not guaranteed, at least there is experience that can be gained from how to build DApps, become a contributor and understand blockchain technology more deeply.
That is basically how airdrops work these days. Devs make you work, make a lot of money off your efforts, and then give you some worthless token, while they rake in fiat. This is not really how airdrops should be, but they figured out a way to make some money and they are just abusing that because there are tons of people who would fall for that kind of stuff and they are happy to fool those people as well.
I believe we are not going to see this go on for too long, we will probably do better with time. We just need to make sure that we are dealing with some good results eventually, and for that to mean something we are going to see a ton of changes as well. This would make sense when the time comes, we just don't know when a new and better airdrop system will start and get hyped.
