Those old good days are long gone, forthwith you will have to go through some daily  stressful  tasks, play games and also with an expected number of referrals to be gotten before you could starting seeing yourself to be eligible for the airdrop reward. 

And airdrops are more taxing now and you will have to putting in a lot of energy so that you will be able to gather more than enough so that when they lost you will be able to sell at a good price since the accumulation is much and you will not be able to do that if you don't do all the task asked of them their will be some kind of limitation and some of the games even look boring and the referrals to are another challenge, those are the things that will make you eligible.
Trouble is, not everyone interested in participating in these contemporary airdrop projects could have the tasking time to regularly engage in the daily task in order to accumulate sufficient  points. I also learned that some of the airdrop projects do strip some points from participants account for each day they fail to login and perform some of the tasks. It's crazy though that the few points a participant has managed to gather would have to be deducted for a day or two absence for token that may not actually list with a substantive price that can  significantly benefit the participants.

It's as though the widespread acknowledgement of cryptocurrency led to a curse on airdrop hunting opening a gateway for scam projects to infiltrate the space. Perhaps, this mainly the logic to why old airdrop hunting feel less interested in partaking in airdrop projects of this time looking at the dust rewards that comes with many of them.

And this year is a season of airdrop and at first people did not believe that you can get money from airdrop untill they saw what nutcoin did so that is one of the reasons that people have been taking airdrop very seriously and even hunting it very hard, like wise the scams their is still good once's, and a lot of them are dust like wise their is still the once you can make money from, so it's a two way thing.

A month ago, the altcoin section was full of discussions about this airdrop and Telegram bot applications and questions about how they work. This was in conjunction with the wave of airdrops after the (relative) success of both the Not and Dogs projects, which were more popular and succeeded in attracting a large user base. Today, there are only a few discussions left and most are certainly tired of following them. As for the trading platforms that support some projects on Telegram, I can conclude that they list tokens for fees and marketing interest rates without requiring the project to be real and not just a silly and boring game. Everyone who participated in the airdrops is still waiting for the success of any of the tokens that Binance supported and listed.
People are tired of following these airdrops on Telegram with the spread of many failed mini-game projects that exploited their user base who paid high fees and sacrificed many months in exchange for receiving completely illogical returns or failing to receive their airdrops because the projects they participated in blacklisted users as "cheaters" without any proof of such accusations.

Indeed, any CEX platform cares about trending projects with large communities that align with their listing policies and the payment of fees, regardless of the quality of the project, the listed token, or the risks to investors, as they typically include a disclaimer. The goal of CEX is to increase its user base and exploit the hype. Like any meme coins, Telegram mini-coins are also a game of luck, and certainly not every project will get listed on Binance or yield returns like the players of early one or two projects did in this sector.

Telegram based airdrops had really made out some noise into bounty groups neither into this forum or usually can be found on facebook on where everynow and then on where it is really that something that entice you do deal up with these airdrops due to the hype and interest on what the market do really have. Its true that it do becomes tougher and tougher on where it will really be that up to you on how you do
deal up with things. There are those people who are really that wanting to deal up with airdrops and no matter how hard it would be then it will really be that up to you but dont expect something positive with it
or making money because not all airdrops will really be giving out that sure money. Just like into those things been mentioned above that it isnt really that just that simple to deal up with and thats why
never ever expect something positive with it or else you will really be that getting disappointed if you are expecting too much. Still worth the reward? Totally depends and i do agree that the ones who are making money with this are to those people who are really that having tons of referrals or followers on which having tons of network will really be that a huge advantage to them.
Honestly that was only because of one project and that was the part that didn't made sense to me at all. Only one that made people money and that is why I believe that we are going to see these things changing for the long term just based on one thing, that makes no sense.

I can see why that would make sense if it was multiple ones, like if there were 3-4 projects that made some money to airdrop farmers then I would say that makes sense because it would be profitable and then people would join like crazy. But there was only a single one called notcoin and then we ended up with nothing at all, nothing else made money and that is why I believe we are going to see people stopping now because they realized it's not making them any money.

it's not worth doing or participating in airdrops anymore, and I also think that the hype of airdrops is over, with so many airdroppers coming out, I noticed that there are not even 10 airdrops that have become this year was successful.

Well, while there are more than 1000 airdrops that have come out in this field of crypto space and most of them are just wasted and a lot of wasted time and fatigue of those who participated who only hope to get rewards that there is no certainty if it will happen of value or nothing.

The more people that prepare for these airdrops, the smaller the rewards. Take Get Grass, for example, they used my internet 24/7 for months, and in return, I got 6 cents... I’m frustrated. I saw it trading in pre-market at $0.96, and if it lists at $1, my 6 Grass would be worth $6. Sure, it’s free, but it hardly feels worth the effort.

I’ve been involved since epoch 3 and honestly expected a bit more. Does anyone share similar thoughts with me or you are all bullish?
Trying to figure out how to maximize your profits will not work, the return is unknown so you can't possibly know how to optimize it. The sad truth is that majority of these airdrops are shitty stuff and won't pay you much, hell there are so many that will fail at launch that you will get basically nothing, just dust, less than what the fee would be. So, trying to figure out some that will get attention is hard.

Even something as known as Hamster Kombat, ended up paying like 20-30 bucks, nothing more. That is why I believe that you are not going to really find that gem in airdrops. There is one in every 10 thousand that ends up being good, but that is very hard to find which one that will be, not worth it to go looking for it.

Honestly, airdrops are becoming more difficult to farm, especially the popular ones. I’m starting to get concerned. The Eigen airdrop was great, I ended up with over $2K just for using the network, without even knowing about the airdrop in advance. It wasn’t as hyped, so not many people were prepared for it.

Don't get pissed if you have received less but of course this isn't something that could be known but I do agree that most projects that aren't hyped are the ones who do make out some good rewards in compared into those projects on which it is over hyped or overrated yet most of them do fail in the end or those bounty hunters are really just that receiving less. If we do talk about $GRASS specifically then no one had anticipated that this one really ended up on having its TGE and now currently listed at 2 bucks price on which is really great.

There are really just those people who are really that receiving more in compared with others on which this is something that people are jealous about. It is really normal to have these disappointments because theres no assurance in the first place that these projects will succeed. Also, talking about grass this isn't something a thing that consumes time on doing it on where you are just running it passively in comparison with those other airdrops on which you do need up some transaction count.Airdrops are indeed getting tougher as years passing by and its just right that you should be having this approach on dealing with it on which you are really that not expecting something positive all the time.Youll be ending up on disappointments and anger if you are really that making yourself that optimistic on getting something big on every airdrops that you are dealing into.

Depends on your living condition a bit doesn't it? I mean if you are in a poor nation and a poor person, and have no job, then what else are you going to do? Internet connection exists for everyone in most parts of the world, so if you have a phone, which almost everyone has these days as well, then you will go online and check airdrops and attend to every single one of them. If you apply to too many of them, just write them down on a piece of paper, some notebook, and keep following them every day.

That way, you may make some return, sure it would be very small, but poor people do not care, they want something, even if it's a small amount. I can see how that works, if I lost my job right now, I could become like them too.

Airdrop in MiniApps is just a hype and now it is no longer worth working on. Reflecting on the airdrop project that has been launched, the income is likely to be very inappropriate for what we do. Therefore, instead of working on airdrop in MiniApps, I often advise some friends to focus on working on retro projects, testnet or running nodes. Because there the stage will provide added value for knowledge about the world of web3. While the results of the airdrop are certainly not guaranteed, at least there is experience that can be gained from how to build DApps, become a contributor and understand blockchain technology more deeply.
That is basically how airdrops work these days. Devs make you work, make a lot of money off your efforts, and then give you some worthless token, while they rake in fiat. This is not really how airdrops should be, but they figured out a way to make some money and they are just abusing that because there are tons of people who would fall for that kind of stuff and they are happy to fool those people as well.

I believe we are not going to see this go on for too long, we will probably do better with time. We just need to make sure that we are dealing with some good results eventually, and for that to mean something we are going to see a ton of changes as well. This would make sense when the time comes, we just don't know when a new and better airdrop system will start and get hyped.

If you use the 2k earned from eignenlayer well you won't be mad about Grass failure for airdrop hunters, also how long do you people think that this will be ongoing? A time will come that airdrops won't even make sense anymore, why? Too many people are into crypto now and as we know it everything is allocation in crypto space, if millions of people are on a project it is possible you will all get pennies in the end, find something else to start learning aside before it is too late.

A lot of those who participate in these fruitless telegram miniApp airdrop projects are just after fast money so they don't really care much about having to go a about learning to acquire the knowledge you suggesting even though it's really going to be of immense benefit to them on the long run.

Although some of these people that are so entangled with these airdrop projects are without any good background of crypto knowledge, through a referral link that's how many of them got involved for the first time ever and started the daily mining tasks in anticipation for rewards at a listing date. So they don't even have any form of idea about other valuable knowledge necessary to gain which is more beneficial than airdrop mining.

Ironically, most people who got to know crypto started with airdrops because they wanted quick means of earning money. Even, when someone is looking out to make funds on the internet, they are advised to check out airdrop. For instance, a friend had to discuss with a Bitcoin miner, but he knew nothing regarding Bitcoin, so the miner had nothing else relatable to tell him aside airdrops. When someone can't understand how the ecosystem works they'll simply be directed to try tasks or surveys for fresh projects.

If we're to compare how Dogs performed with their rewards to that of Hamster Kombat I think I do agree with your thoughts that the number of participants in an airdrop project also influences the value of the rewards to be given. Dogs had a few participants and not less than about two months or so, they airdropped their rewards to the small community and it was large. But HK the level of hype got a lot of involved which probably wasn't what the developers envisioned. In some cases, it leads to postponements and extension of snapshots and listing date just to accommodate the larger community.

I appreciate you teaching your friends, truly, at least there would be something in the end after all the effort, because experience is what is truly invaluable, in my opinion.
And the Tap2Earn - they may be worked around, but only with big enough farms to compensate for the future allocation.

What else can you expect with these airdrops ? They are called airdrops for a reason. It's as good as free money.
While some might get you good returns, many of them will barely give you few dollars.
It depends on you whether you are capable to take such risks.

I do remember those old years on which you could be able to earn or eligible for airdrop on just simply signing up on a google form on which unlike now on which you would really be doing up some hard tasks.
There are even some that do require some transaction counts on which this really spend up some gas fees on which this is really that something that being needing some expense
on which it is really that already that a part of risks on which you do need to deal on with.
Those old good days are long gone, forthwith you will have to go through some daily  stressful  tasks, play games and also with an expected number of referrals to be gotten before you could starting seeing yourself to be eligible for the airdrop reward.

One of the cons on which a particular project been farmed out by tons of people and a long time duration then it is really that somewhat prone into that being farmed too much or being cheated which we have seen some airdropers who do end up on making thousands of dollars because they have been that making some multiple accounts. Somehow there are really those people who do make some serious profits specially to those influencers or youtubers who do have tons of followers. Is it still worth the effort? Totally depends if you do have the time and having that patience because not all people would be having time and having that effort that they could really be having into. There are some who are really that eager on dealing up with airdrops on which there are those people who do even make it as a source of income on which this is really that very wrong. It would really be always better that you engage out with airdrops on having that approach that you are really that prepared whether it do end up some shit or not.
