Title: Missed One Airdrop, Never Again.
Post by: Gentlord on April 28, 2025, 05:39:22 AM
So here’s my jist, Back in 2021 I missed out on an airdrop just because I didn’t check my wallet for like two weeks.
Since then, anytime I see anything that even remotely looks like a lucky draw, spin, or whatever I don’t think twice. I just go for it.

The way this space moves, sometimes it’s not about timing it perfectly or being some trading genius… it’s literally about giving yourself enough shots at getting lucky.
Half of these rewards go to the people who just bothered to show up.

So whenever I hear people saying “it’s just luck,” I kinda laugh. Luck favors the ones who are paying attention.

Anyway, heard there are a few opportunities floating around again lately, might be worth checking what’s out there before it’s one of those “damn, I should’ve” moments again.

Btw anyone knows how a bot kinda spin thingy works very well ?

Yes, luck favors anyone who shows up and sign the attendance sheet. In my country, that is one way one can avail of "ayuda" or help from the government. Anyway, I am also into airdrops and bounties but lately I realized that there are so many new ones available I could not anymore keep up plus of these many only a few will actually be successful and guessing which one which make it can be stressful. And since I am not actually a tech-oriented person in most cases I find it difficult to do some tasks especially involving testnet. Gone are the says when one can really make big money in airdrops...these days it can be breadcrumbs especially with popular ones with millions participating (evidently so!). Congrats and more power on your search for the best airdrops.

I think only airdrop hunters care about and wait for updates and tokens in their wallets. I don't participate in and have little interest in airdrops, so I don't have the habit of regularly checking my wallet to get a few tokens. For a long time, I've always known exactly what tokens I have; I don't wait for surprises in my account.

Airdrop hunting used to be an attractive occupation when many projects conducted airdrops and offered generous rewards, but unfortunately, that period couldn't last long enough. As far as I know, some hunters currently can only earn 5-10 USD from a successful airdrop, and their rewards are sometimes even smaller than the transaction fees :)

you are right but since you have been around the space for a long time i wonder if you have noticed any changes? because a lot of people who show up and participate in airdrop events usually no longer get as much rewards for a lot of reasons one, too many projects are no longer rewarding you can exert many effort but still end up with nothing two, it is not about luck anymore sometimes you just need to pay money already to have the rewards back

It is true with the concept of luck.. if you have the opportunity to check and make a little effort about the latest airdrop info, of course it will provide a greater opportunity... while people who are busy with other agendas so they can't check some important airdrop information, of course it's not good luck...

Seen from any point of view, someone who is active has a greater chance of getting that luck... being lazy certainly won't increase the chances of getting money, so it's fair that anyone who tries will get a better chance.

When you're farming an airdrop, it's very important to keep an eye on the news and in the community
I'd say 2-3 times a week is enough to see if there are any relevant updates or tasks to be done

2 weeks in the crypto world seems like an eternity with so much going on hehehe  ;D

Sometimes a simple task can be rewarding, sometimes the devs do it to see who is active and participative in the community.

I missed out on a handful of those too back then because I was lazy to even open my wallet, Honestly Just turning up and contributing makes a significant difference in this place. Luck is real however like you stated it typically finds the ones who are genuinely engaged and paying attention. About those bot spin thingies I suppose they usually just automate the process like they connect your wallet and spin or roll automatically when an event crops up,  I Am also thinking to set up something like that merely to not miss unexpected free awards anymore

Exactly, engaged is the best word to describe airdrops today
Trends are always changing, and now what we can see is that projects want engaged people

Just look at the Kaito AI project, where many projects are rewarding users more for promoting their content and being engaged, than the users who test their networks

I understand your bid for not missing on opportunities and once we had a similar experience, we should try as much as possible to avoid a reoccurrence, but we should also not forget that not every offers we must run into, because some were being done with the pretense to scam us, we have a lot of crypto projects which have been launched and lots of assets have been rendered lost due to scam, this makes some to first pause before rushing to investment upon any project.

Big luck is usually not commensurate between the results and the tasks done ... more often people who succeed in getting money from airdrops are those who have done something ordinary, but they get a very large payment ... this does not always happen like this, but for those who have experienced this, they must feel that there is a small job that is appreciated with a very large reward, and it is very enjoyable ... airdrop hunters always get excited when they succeed there ...

For people who rarely work on airdrops, they will always think that luck will only happen once or twice ... in their hearts they actually regret having missed the airdrop ... and the next day they will still be lazy to work on the airdrop until there is another wave of luck that they miss again ...

Crypto keeps evolving, like if you see the amount of energy people are investing on engaging with all these projects, it’s amazing. My timeline is literally full of these which is obviously what they want to achieve. Publicity. I just hope they reward users well, the word “yapping” is now so common.

There was a time when things like this were worthwhile, the question you should ask yourself right now is if it is wise farming airdrops right now. There are a lot of other ways you can benefit and earn from the crypto industry, though this is not to discourage you if it is airdrops you want to chase after, goodluck.

Why would someone say that it is luck for airdrops? It’s not because you must do some tasks or invest in something to be part of the AirDrop list. Those people Probably haven’t done airdrops or something.

Post by: tabas on April 30, 2025, 01:55:35 AM
That is right OP. It really goes to the ones that shows up and tries as much as they can and increases their luck through participating with the most that they can. Not all of the good ones are coming out lately and so, keep on joining and trying all of these airdrops that you are in favor. Sometimes it is going to be paid off and worth it but not all really gets the chance because they're too impatient to take cover of the chances that they've already lost.

This is how airdrops work and how they continue to this day. The idea is based on the fact that the success of one airdrop will make many investors continue to trust and share airdrops even though they believe that they may not succeed. The reason for this is the possibility that one airdrop will succeed or the regret that you will not participate in the success of one of the airdrops.

I'm not sure what kind of bot he asked. But if you searched about it on Google Search, with keyword such as "bot claim airdrop task", you'll find lots of bot that claim to automate claim and doing certain tasks. It appears to be real since there are news that report team behind airdrop take action against it, where sometimes it harm non-cheater. For example,

Stories when people receive thousands just for few clicks, when an aidrop turned into profitable and most generous even though nobody expected that, always motivated me to take parts in airdrops. But my motivation evaporates quickly, after numerous moment when I either receive nothing or wasted a lot of time in exchange for few cents. This all made me take a decision to skip airdrops at all. My time worth more, its impossible to earn all the money or to predict which action would bring me big profit. Luck is no longer my accompany in airdrops.

So many people have also taken the same decision, and in my honest opinion, it is the right one. I don't fancy the idea of spending your time on numerous airdrops, in the hope that one of them will somehow make you money someday, you don't even know when, or if it will ever happen.

Haha, mate, I also had the same expectation with aidrops just like you, I also used to join many airdrops but their rewards demotivate me a lot, then I do not take any part in all that After that, I also have heard many stories that motivate me a lot from my community but when I myself take part in farming airdrops their rewards remove my all motivation in a result.

Now I avoid joining them because it feel me just a waste of time, as you also may have idea that these airdrops take a lot of time on daily basis, and when they give nearly no rewards In result then it obvioulsy discouraging thing.

It's just that there have been a few airdrops that have rewarded a lot of users, with a lot of tokens and “a few clicks” as you say
But there are only a few airdrops that are so out of the curve, the others and the vast majority are regular

I would say that Arbitrum and Jito were the airdrops that gave the most tokens with the least possible effort
At Jito, users earned thousands of dollars by simply staking SOL, and it didn't even have to be much coins

Based only on these extraordinary airdrops, it can be frustrating to even put in the effort to win 100 or 200 dollars at most

Being active is very important if you don’t want to miss out on important updates about the market and also on opportunities that will make you some cool money when you partake in them. They may not require you to do some vigorous task but with the little you’ve done, you may be awarded big for it. The market is always unpredictable and it’s also important that you make a lot of research on what you want and partake in, it’ll help you further reduce your energy and time you’ll spend in projects that will be worth nothing and would have taken most of your precious time.

I worked on the airdrop just to fill my spare time so I missed a lot of airdrops from various airdrop channels on Telegram.
I also don't expect to get money from airdrops because I think that working on airdrops is full of scams and not worth it.

I also see that this last airdrop has to use a lot of capital and the capital is not small.
I want to live a relaxed life and enjoy my free time to fill airdrops with relaxation, money is not a problem.

However, usually the capital needed will be returned, such as staking or just holding... they don't actually take your money, but they filter so that there are no more violations, considering that currently there are so many airdrop participants who always use multiple accounts to participate in one free airdrop... but if there is a policy to hold or stake a certain amount, it will reduce it.... that's good for the airdrop ecosystem, because the quality will be more controllable.

To consider airdrops not serious, that's right... so that we don't have too much hope for this very uncertain airdrop... so that when the airdrop we work on ends up disappointing, our regrets are not great either.

We all have had similar experience i myself have missed alot of opportunities due to not being always active, it pays to be active because it help one to stay ahead and capitalize on any given opportunity.
