How much lucky have you got with crypto airdrops ?
I am not going to disclose the amount but i have been pretty lucky in the past. But i don't think that's a reason to chase them, as that seems to be job for a bots now, and probably no matter how you "mine" them, it's going to cost more in fees.
Past airdrops were much different and it happened to be so that people weren't expecting to make a lot of money on it. They participated because it was something cool and they wanted to do more things. Because a lot of money was made in the past this attracted all sorts of bad people who now organize to farm airdrops, and have ruined it for everyone. These days almost all airdrops suck hard.
In my judgement, all airdrops now sucks hard. I like the way you put it because it is the reality about airdrops now. I was opportune to mine some early projects and made some few bucks with them without having to perform any serious tasks. Today, the airdrops will almost milk the hell out of you and get you will get nothing tangible from it which is worth the time and resources consumed on them. At some point, airdrops became serious scams because airdrop companies did requested for money from people to buy their packages and end up leaving those people with nothing to benefit from the projects.
I got some dust from them, but nothing lucrative.
It's usually a waste of time nowadays, better to find something better to do.
Hahahaha that's so funny but you are actually saying the truth but on the second thought every airdrop participation is on the voluntary consentment, which everyone is always aware of that the reward is not certain and at such what is giving at the end of the day shouldn't really affect us that much, I have participated in so many airdrops the only one I was rewarded even though the reward was below expectations was that of the hamster, I kept telling people to lower their expectations whenever it comes to do with airdrops because nothing is guaranteed.
Having the understanding that airdrop are not ways and means to make money, but just a way to test and support those new projects, but airdrop hunters took that to a whole different level when their began to chase Airdrop and complaining how worthless their have become in recent time, why should anyone think that somewhat significantly good can come from a free will offer like Airdrop, so only those that have time to waste in testing their platforms.
I think it's just the genuineness which is not there else companies don't ordinarily experience users to just jump into their projects without having some sort of incentives for them. Even personal brands do offer giveaway for testing and promotions like this. But what I've noticed is, these airdrop developers discovered the hunger with people then decided to use their projects to take money from innocent people out there looking for little funds to cater for their lives needs
