I did the Aptos airdrop, I didn't get an email for a claim, no regret though. already bought from binance to hunt some NFTs in their ecosystem even though NFTs are still not matured a market.Chromes browser is not the only browser supporting the Aptos wallet, Brave supports it, I prefer brave because it's a web3 browser. Many believe Aptos is a Solana killer, but I want to learn and stay rich too.
Maybe you didn't follow the steps correctly? Or missed something? That is why you didn't get qualified. And sometimes, airdrops are limited. It can be a first come first serve basis so maybe you are a little late when you do the task but I am glad that you didn't feel bad about it and what you did of buying directly is more surer.
Some features of aptos are great, that is why many think it's better than solana but still, it's too early to judge. We don't know, what if others are right that aptos are only in for the hype? And maybe once the hype goes down, the team are not going to be motivated anymore to improve the project. You better monitor your investment properly.
