Well, it's the same with me, avoiding airdrops on X, let alone having to follow them and tweet their posts.
I think it's just a trick of people looking for followers on their accounts for certain purposes that we don't know for sure

It's simple.

More followers, more impressions, more revenue.

Some accounts also farm referrals.

I read comments above, and it surprises me people are still hunting airdrops via doing social media stuff. Airdrop trend has changed a lot recently, and social media is not it (including platforms like galx/zealy/questn/interact).

These days, you are better of farming projects where incentives are already announced, active ones being Mode network and farming pearls on Swell network.

Look at recent past which rewarded good to farmers: $JTO, $PARCL, $ETHFI,  $EIGEN.

You stick with right projects and you'll be rewarded good.

Basic Questions about Cryptos / Re: [GUIDE] What are Crypto Airdrops?
« on: June 03, 2024, 08:22:47 AM »
Same old repetitive sh*t.

Claiming faucets here and there, minting NFT's here and there, making transactions here and there. That's your daily routine with Berachain and it also came to a point for me that I don't want to do it anymore hence, I also quit doing it. One more is that the requirements for us to be eligible isn't released online yet. What if us testnet users will not be given any reward when the airdrop launch? Effort wasted. Time wasted. :D

Contrary to popular opinion, these testnet airdrops are there to reward testers — not just give away free tokens just because. So if you refuse to actually test, then fair game it's probably not for you. It's like applying to a software tester program and then refusing to do the job.

Unfair comparison with job, in job you know you are going get paid and what you are getting paid has value, doing testnets, you don't know whether you will be given reward in first place, and if they actually decide to reward whether it will have some value.

As for eligibility, projects typically don't publicize eligibility criteria to prevent sybils — and so people actually test the product entirely and not just do the minimums to end up being eligible.

What do you mean with testing the product entirely when you are handed over same repetitive tasks each day, every day and the product is same as hundred other available in market?

I would not consider it a full time job, as one can do bounty hunting with hour or two daily, so it can also be done aside from the main job that you may have.

But if you are only in crypto or on forums (bitcointalk/altscointalk), you will likely fail, interest in the crypto sector there must be. Without this interest your content won't come of as genuine and BMs will hesitate to hire you.
If we are in 2017 then maybe, just maybe some can consider it as a full-time job "TEMPORARILY" while finding for another job. I mean if you don't have a job at that time, putting some effort in bounty hunting that time might help you at least pay some bills because in 2017, bounty hunting is at its peak thus, many bounty hunters are earning hundreds or even thousands of dollars just by advertising the project in different ways.

That's true, 2017 was different breed, unfortunately I did not sell those 'money falling from sky' earnings at right time, kept holding and eventually those tokens turned to dust.

Now in 2024, there are 2 scenarios that I think always happens. It's either they will not pay you any tokens at all, or if they will pay you, that token will either be worthless or if it will have a value, it will not be worth it compared to the time that you gave. Overall, it isn't worth it anymore. Well, there might still be some bounty hunters out there who are still continuing to join bounties, but they still have a full-time job. Bounty hunting as a full-time job? Just forget about it. :D

If there are bounties paying in prominent crypto, they at least have some value but the ones paying in alts are completely useless. There was one bounty named Cogwise, that I did 6 or so months back, let the coins be useless but they scammed their ICO investors, lol.

^ My technical side of knowledge is not that good but I'm pretty sure polygon is sidechain and not a layer 2, and these two words are not interchangeable.

Layer 2s finalize transactions on Ethereum, as in case of Optimism/Arbitrum whereas sidechain settles transactions on their own chain and have very little to do with Ethereum L1 as in case of Polygon, BNB and Avalanche chain, sidechain also have their own consensus mechanism, and have their own coin to pay for fees.

I follow few Twitter handles who are known to post genuine airdrop stuff and it works for me well, going through your timeline to find genuine airdrops is like wading through garbage and you are surely to be disappointed in hunting airdrops this way.

But still you may need to wade through garbage just to find genuine handles, it's what it is.

Technical Discussion / Re: Which blockchains are the fastest?
« on: June 01, 2024, 11:09:48 AM »
I go by practical experience and judge solely on that, never cared for stats, I use Hive frequently, transactions are instant and fee-less, no matter how high the amount you transact. Yes, you have to stake few Hive to get this free transactions, but this is one blockchain which I would rate the highest amongst all I have used and believe me I have used plenty (including most of mentioned in the list).

I am staking few IBC coins ($ATOM, $OSMO, $TIA, $DYM) purely for purpose of airdrops, $ATOM and $OSMO being significantly down from their ATH prices also played some part in having them.

There is one other I stake which is $HIVE — the native coin of Hive ecosystem (https://hive.blog), I hold it there to delegate to other users and recieve delegation rewards, without delegating you can just hold HP into your account and it gives you power within Hive ecosystem proportional to Hive Power you hold. For example, more HP you have, the more your upvote and downvote will be worth.
Staking coins above for receiving airdrop has any APY reward or pure only staking?

Yes, for staking you do get apy reward.
Staking is an interesting passive income feature that has a lot of benefits. I've been actively staking in the Cosmos ecosystem for airdrops. I've also explored platforms like Bitget Earn to stake USDT and ETH (flexible and good APYs). My advice would be to DYOR on APR comparison and choose the better one while doing a deep dive on the platform. Someone in the thread shared a picture comparing platform APYs, and I think that should help in deciding which is beneficial to you.

I don't like centralized staking platforms, idk why, I'd rather go with coins that have native staking and stake there (mentioned few of those in quoted statement). It just feels safer,  even if price dumps to zero, you you don't lose your coins  :P

Interesting to see familiar names here.

Having said that, everyone should just stick with Bluewallet and Electrum. They are the easiest bitcoin wallets to use.


I would just like to point out that such wallets also have one negative side - and that is that they are targeted by those who make fake copies of them, which means that you should be especially careful when downloading them. I don't know about Bluewallet, but Electrum has the possibility of verifying the file before installation, and this should be practiced especially in those cases when such wallets will store some significant amounts.

I mean anything popular is bound to be targeted by malicious actors. Regarding verifying install, idk technical aspects but blue wallet website has PGP key mentioned [1], can you verify install using it?

But i am working on signature campaign from btt form, which is the best online income for me. But this cannot be the only source of earning money so it is important to have a job or business as an alternative.
Without any doubt, income from signature campaigns is quite awesome and one could easily pay small bills or buy some items from their weekly earnings. If someone is living in a third world country then they can support their family with such income, however there are so many people in the crypto world who are earning way higher money than the ones in signature campaigns.

For this season, the meme coins have been best performers and there are many traders who earn quite good income by trading meme coins. I believe one should not invest his/her full energy in doing one thing, but split the energy to do multiple things to get best possible results.

I'm surprised you mentioned meme coins as way to earn money, IMO, Meme coins are pure gamble, you don't know which one will perform good and which one you are supposed to stay away from.

There are hefty amounts of scam meme coins in market, and new ones enter every day, there are more users who lose the money in meme coins than select few who make money. Trust me, I tried my luck in meme coins too, but the dev rugged.

This is out of context, nonetheless I felt like saying it — even if you come across a right meme coin and make good money from it, good financial knowledge will make you hold these gains otherwise — easy come, easy go, as if you never had huge gains in first place.

I am willing to bet visa crypto cards see more real-life activity than any of those stable coins, in chasing and buying stuff.
Of course, who would like to pay the extra fee attached to stable coin transfers when the payment can be made for free using the card? And if you use Ethereum, then transaction cost might even surpass your cart value, lol.

While i agree Visa is more frequently used for real-life activity, using Visa isn't free. Usually there's monthly fee imposed by bank which issue your card. The merchant sometimes pay few percentage fee if you pay them using card, where they increase their goods/services cost to overcome it.

Ok you are right, my Indian bank issued visa card has about 3$ yearly fee but have never paid dime as a fee for making payments with it. They also have perks included such as airport lounge accesses and cashback on purchases, so I recoup more than the fee asked, at least in domestic sense, while using it internationally, the convenience of using card anywhere in the world is there but forex conversion fee may make it somewhat expensive and crypto may possibly be better alternative in international usage.

I use blue wallet on my android myself (available on iOS too). Simple, easy to understand interface — handy for novice, allows setting custom gas fee, RBF and open source as well.

I am using it since coinomi stopped pushing updates, experience has been mostly good minus one hiccup where it'd automatically force close upon app open, but it was solved soon after. Bugs can happen but, how soon you rectify is what matters most to me.
