I totally agree with you, I've recently seen that Airdrops have come Back but they're not as attractive as they were in 2017, of course the ones that Used to come out and were given Away , now there are much less, but they don't give much , for example doing an airdrop for 5 usd and having to do a lot of publicity is something difficult, it's Something that not Everyone achieves, that's why now many of us have become reluctant to accept Doing tasks, the source doesn't matter, whether it's from Twitter or Another social Network , what's Important here is that it can be Expanded to do things Better , that's what I've seen and what I've put on social media for a long time.
I agree, the current airdrop is not as interesting as it used to be. because the rewards received are too small and many airdrops fail and do not distribute the rewards. Actually, it doesn't matter if the source comes from Twitter or other social media, but as long as the project is good and the team is responsible, I think the airdrop will be worth it. Honestly, I prefer daily trading to participating in airdrops.
Indeed, the airdrop is currently being modified in such a way that they can also get contributions indirectly, and it is no longer free, even though, after paying, there is still other work which, of course, cannot be done, so it becomes a waste of what we have contributed.
So it seems like if it's not done well it's useless. I think you're right that it's useless to do an airdrop because you won't necessarily get much contribution.
But we can't forbid someone who is still aiming for an airdrop and that's legal and if it works, it's something very good.
Currently, Bounty, Airdrop, etc. haven't provided anything for participants and don't know when it will get better, so it's natural that someone is targeting trading for options.
