AI airdrop farming coming back tells you risk appetite is starting to creep back into the market. When people are willing to spend time farming points, testing new protocols and chasing future token launches, it usually means they are looking beyond $BTC again. Hayes front running that trend makes sense too. AI is still one of the strongest narratives in crypto, and if liquidity starts rotating into alts, the sectors with the clearest story usually move first. $HYPE and $ENA already showing strength adds to that picture. I would not call full altseason yet though. For that, I want to see BTC dominance cool off, broader alt liquidity improve and more than just a handful of narratives running. Right now it feels more like the early rotation phase. Airdrop farming getting hot again could be one of the first signs that traders are willing to take more risk. If that continues, AI could easily be one of the first sectors to benefit.
