I personally feel like project teams don't take care of their initial investors or users anymore. If I sound angry, yes, I am.
They do but not for the airdrop folks.

I was supposed to get an airdrop or thought I was going to get an airdrop for this sender AI project, but because the listing is today but they said the claim will be open a whole week after listing lmaooo
You're not an investor and that's why they are more focused to the real ones and so if the reward is being delayed, don't be surprised because that's very usual in airdrops.

Personally, I don't think this is good for us. The price after that one week might not be favorable. Has something like this ever happened to you?
It's likely that the price will drop and the airdrop claimants will get little to nothing. Gladly, it didn't happened for me as far as I can remember.

I just want to ask you simple question over this whole thing;

Do you by any means invested in that project?

If No then i don't see any reason for you to keep panicking over the time, because i know that airdrop are free rewards from projects owners and they can rewards their airdroper's when they feels like doing that and not to easily pay out to avoid huge dump. One thing you must know is that project owners do not just pay hunters if their investors has never traded their coin to gain at least their profits and to what they had already promised to be while listing the coin, so every project owners most fulfill their promises to let their investors gain back their invested amount before they could release the airdrop reward and the price may like drop after distribution because lot of people would go dump it on the exchange so easily.

I think for this matter is a reasonable way for them developers because it is intended not to make them lose momentum and the price of the tokens they have does not fall in a short time and this is not a new thing because a system like this always happens for airdrops even though not as a whole.

Talking about the context of the title is difficult, actually something like this is not included in the problem of whether or not the airdrop is difficult, but in the end this is only a handle for developers to convince themselves that the project they created did not immediately collapse and for them as airdrop participants, this is actually a risk in the end, Seeing from something like this, it does seem unprofitable for participants, but when the project that is emphasized has capital (for airdrop) that is being worked on, then at least I think it is still quite worth it, as for free airdrops, you just have to wait because no matter how much the results are when the work does not require capital, then it can still be considered.

You have to deal and bare with it on which there would really be those projects and its devs whose really that too greedy or dont mind about their bounty hunters on which these are also one of the keys of projects success when it comes on spreading up some exposure on such project. I did have a couple of experiences too on having those projects that paid up or giving the rewards after a week of listing.
The thing i dont really like the most is on the moment that they will really be having those vesting schedule on which it do might last up for couple of months until several years on which you would really be liking to bang up the wall because of such disappointment specially if you have grinded up too much a particular project.

The moment that you do touch up airdrops then be getting prepared for such situation on which it will really be that very normal that you do really end up with various situations or conditions
then you would really be that getting pissed if it do end up on opposite on what you are expecting. So its better that you shouldnt really be expecting something positive
on every projects that you are really that grinding on.

It is a general technique applied by any project to stop its token price from falling soon after listing. There is nothing wrong with what they are doing they will allow the tokens to be claimed after a week. I have seen airdrops token being sent to users but listing never happened in the past. Do not be frustrated wait for a week and you can then either sell those tokens or hold them in this bullish market.
Project teams most especially those that have long term market plans have drive this technique to prevent the value of their coins from dumping immediately after listing and for that, they will choose to distribute airdrop tokens sometimes after the coin has been listed on exchanges so as the volume of the coin to become stable a bit before allowing airdrop Hunter to get onboard the market.
Most times airdrop allocation are so much that project teams struggle to pay them when listed if distributed pre listing and this have killed many projects potential in the past, so project teams will even go as far as paying the rewards in percentage so as to protect the market volatilities, think nothing is wrong with this in as much as the aim is to protect real investors of the coin from losing on the long term Base.

But also we have some cryptocurrency projects that deliberately withhold airdrops tokens because of the scam tendencies in those projects looking for free publicity from airdrop hunters, I have seen a few airdrops and bounty that the project team just deliberately refusing to pay airdrop Hunters are even giving them unrealistic time for their token distributions.

What they’ve just done is for their token not to lose value after listing. They know the vast majority of people that will be airdropped the token will want to sell it immediately and therefore make the token becomes worthless as soon as possible after listing. If they’re able to hold up the price for some time, even at least within that one week, they may get good investors ready to invest with them, if not so, they’ll lose value some days immediately after listing. Airdrops team already know and have seen what has happened in the past for most airdrops given to users, so they’ll be more cautious in the future and that’s what we can now see them doing with this tactical approach of disseminating airdrops to their community.

If the project is good and has strong market support, the price will not fall too badly when it is first traded. If you follow many airdrops, you may see some airdrop tokens that also increase in value after a few months of trading.

If you say that you may be an early adopter or early investor. You should also believe and care about the long-term development of the project. Not selling your tokens after a while you get them from the airdrop.

the mechanism in airdrops is different, each developer has their own way of giving rewards to their participants in different ways, it is common knowledge that we know when talking about airdrops, regarding prices and so on such as luck in airdrops, there is nothing certain and nothing that can be used as a benchmark in becoming an airdropper unless you have access to people in the development of the project.

I think it's getting easier here, but free work is getting harder to get big rewards, most of these days you have to spend money to get a bigger reward allocation, with a point system that is quite difficult to convert, and that's what I complain about more about airdrops for today.

Airdrops these days are nothing but a waste of time. When the trend of TON-based mini-bots started, people thought it was going to bring excellent opportunities for people when it comes to airdrops because the first few projects, such as Bitcoin, were very successful, and people thought the trend would continue, but soon after that, the other projects started deceiving their participants.  Grin

Participants on X (formerly Twitter) can be seen as frustrated when a project doesn't compensate them enough for their efforts. They comment on their tweets and posts, showing their anger and frustration, but what's the point? You don't get the time back that you have spent on promoting the project.

These mini-bots and airdrops are all a waste of time unless you spend money on them and I don't think a lot of people would be willing to spend money to get something because if you don't get enough, it's a loss.

But you are not an early investor in the project. You only participated in their airdrops and they are to decide when to distribute the reward and when not to. The reason why altcoin project do that is because they don't want airdrop participants to dump the price of the token after they are listed. They usually pay airdrops when the token has already been dumped. Only a few project will pay airdrops participants before they list the token.

What do you mean becoming difficult? It has been, and the last time that airdrops are worth something is around 2017 and first quarter of 2018. After that, the landscape has change. There are a lot of scam airdrops that will require you to pay them before getting your supposedly airdrop. So for sure majority of us here could not have been in the airdrops for years. However, because of the success of Notcoin, there are a lot of tap 2 earn or the whole farming of Ton network that really put airdrop again on the spotlight. However, it has been reported that the airdrop of Hamster and Tomarket is not that successful as well like it's predecessors. So I guess it's the fatigue that some of us have experience in the last 7 months and then getting nothing makes us really frustrated and abandoned airdrops again.

The developers know very well that many of their participants are here for a free money grab, and they are going to dump it the moment they receive their allocation.
This is not something new; during my time in the bounty campaign, it took a month or even longer before they distributed their hunters' allocation. This is to first stabilize the price; its a nightmare for developers to see their token being dumped in the first day of its listing; its an industry practice way back in 2017.

Even before, airdrops have been difficult. It's easy to get airdrop tokens but getting the value was a different thing. It's not like every project out there with an airdrop feature will give out money just like that. Most airdrop right now just ends up as dust or just a speck of dirt in your wallet and sometimes it's irritating to see them even if you can do nothing about it. (there's a way but it requires spending some tx fee by sending it to another wallet.)

Anyway, I've seen lots of airdrops in Telegram but do not expect something from them. Just take the coin/token and pray that it will have some value in the future. You might need to wait for months or years before you can see it's value.

Difficult in terms of what? because if participating in airdrops is easy, the problem is, will the time and effort we put in really be worth it?
Won't it be a waste of time grinding the tasks they ask us to do?

I would probably prefer to participate in airdrops that are not related to Telegram; I would prefer protocol schemes over tap mining app games.
At least there are no requirements that require a transaction minimum of 0.2 tons or need to buy stars for eligibility. then it's not sure if the coin will really have value in the future.

Smart is not enough, there must be skills
Each airdrop has its own mechanism for distributing to its community, some claim after listing, some are not only 10% then the rest is vested for several months in order to keep the token stable and not experience a decline that is expected by the developer.

We as airdrop hunters who receive tokens certainly don't want a situation like this, where we only receive a portion or cannot claim after listing.
There is nothing to do but wait,

You say airdrops are getting harder?

There is an easy one.
Some are free and some require capital.
