Missing out on an airdrop is not something I really like, because I see opportunity in anything others see as free things. At least, if I'm going to count now, I've gotten at least $430 from all airdrops so far, including $NOTCOIN, $CATS, $MAJOR, and many others. The painful part of my airdrop journey is that the one I should have made at least $100 from is $BR, but I was not eligible when I checked. However, after reading the whitepaper and also seeing it trend this morning, I see a good future ahead of it, and I'm thinking of putting some liquidity on it by participating in the Candybomb event which means by trading it i will get the project airdrop. Do you think this decision is great?
Yeah, well. Airdrops suck these days. They're not as good as they used to be in the early days. You'd need to invest a considerable amount of money on trading or De-Fi protocols to be eligible for the airdrop. Trust me, I know. Developers end up with most of the coins (token allocation), opening up the possibility for a "rug pull". It's their game now. Maybe this has something to do with increasing crypto regulations? Ever since governments (particularly the US government) decided to crack down on ICOs and such, things have never been the same.
I'm afraid that getting "free tokens" by doing nothing (being only a holder) is a thing of the past. If you're planning on putting some liquidity to participate in the Candybomb airdrop, I'd suggest you proceed with extreme caution. Never invest more than what you can't afford to lose. It's your money, so the choice is yours. I sure hope developers reduce the number of airdrop requirements (make them more flexible) to help attract newcomers into the space. I mean, that's the whole idea of an airdrop. Right?
