AIRDROPS EVOLVED: FROM GOLD RUSH TO COMMITMENT GAME
The airdrop meta has completely flipped since the days of massive, easy payouts like
$UNI and $ARB. Sybil farming dominated, forcing projects to implement heavy anti-cheat like linear allocation and identity checks.
• Early days: Users interacted for value, airdrops were a bonus.
• Now: Rewards are diluted, farming requires deep commitment or social influence.
• The shift: Projects are moving away from simple points toward models tied to long-term belief, like ICO guarantees over future airdrops.
Adapt now: Stop overfarming. Focus capital and time on a few high-conviction projects. Value comes from commitment, not just interaction volume. Build real social presence.
