Airdrop Events, Testnet Events is not an investment!

[Yamifoud]

There is a huge number of airdrop hunters, therefore, it is expected you will never get big rewards but just a penny.
If we could also understand that situation, I don't think we become disappointed about it knowing that this will happen to all the participants. Besides, airdrops don't make us earn more but just a penny or shitcoins. Well, airdrops before seem to be a money maker but these days, they are even quite useless and a waste of time. This is really be the life of airdrop hunters, sometimes we got lucky but most of the time we are too unlucky.

I think when Zksync and Layerzero finally do their airdrop the result will be the same. There are way too many people participating in these airdrops that the reward is going to be nil.

Sure UNI and BLUR and ARB were very successful but these airdrops Gained so much attention that everybody is doing it with 100 different wallets. So their everyone will be labeled as Sybil or the airdrop reward will be very small.

I do think that when Zksync and Layerzero announce their airdrop; there will be little criticisms and also the airdrop will follow the arbitrum pattern; where everyone got rewards once they are eligible (even if you made just a single transaction on the arbitrum airdrop).

I remember with NFT that already distributed by zksync team. I don't know whether this NFT will be useful in being eligible for the airdrop or not. Making a single transaction in arbitrum airdrop will not make you eligible caused by you need at least to earn three points.
People should have some transactions and bridging eth to the arbitrum to be eligible for the airdrop.

For zksync, the airdrop will be rather straight forward; for layerzero; they have so many platforms and it is unsure yet which of them will be used for the criterias. but still i trust both zksync and layerzero to be more transparent in their approaches just like ARBITRUM.

The thing that i know if zksync already confirmed to have token in supporting the decentralization for its network but i don't know about layer zero.
There's no clue regarding layer zero token. I remember some twitter accounts were hyping it caused by they have found something from layer zero github but it's not even related to the layer zero token.

Expectation leads to disappointment.

I believe this is the right word tbh; too many expectations on airdrop events, testnet events etc is what leads to such form of entitlement by the airdrop participants. Also i believe project owners should devise methods to handle airdrop situations politely, such that there are 0 escalations that leads to media image tarnishing using arbitrum airdrop approach as a case study.

Below are statements that i think are true about Testnet events and Airdrops

• Airdrop events are free gifts from different projects to perform simple tasks (it surely varies
• The rewards from an airdrop event in most cases are speculative (there's no guarantee if it will be worth 1$ or 1000$ or worth 0)
• Test-net events does not PAY; either it is an incentivized participation or promised rewards; payment is not guaranteed.
• Test-net reward is not promised either.

Actually, programs like this that give gifts in the form of their initial tokens will always be like this. These gifts can later be valuable or worthless gifts. Because this will really depend on how the project will develop its potential and optimize all its achievements to continue to survive and develop in the crypto market. However, looking at the situation and conditions in which such projects have been running, I personally am not sure if their tokens will be useful for investment. I used to hope so, even holding their tokens for a long time because I hoped that these tokens would really grow and have extraordinary potential. However, of the many new tokens, none of them were valuable. even everything becomes shit coins.

If we really get tokens from events like that, I think the sooner they can be sold, the better. Moreover, if we meet the hype market for the coin and immediately sell it at the right time, then it might be more worth it. This is because up to now, new projects usually don't last long on the market and will immediately go into decline after the hype is over. In fact, if the project cannot be hyped, they will actually die before listing on the ID market.[/list]

The rewards from airdrops vary and some of them really give a huge amount of rewards and it multiplies more for the people who live in some 3rd world countries. But we don't ignore the fact that most of them are not giving that much because others only give a penny or a dime depending on how big the project is. But for the people who participated in multiple Airdrops, I think this won't matter at all because at the end of the day when they want to withdraw and convert it to fiat, they're like harvesting fruits because they gonna convert all the rewards from other projects also and make it a decent amount of money.

But still many gamble their faith just to try and get a possibilities to earn. Since Arb airdrop many are been hype again with recent airdrops and they didn't even notice that todays task is more riskier since many ask to connect your wallet to their platform then you are prone to get hack with that. So hopefully many will realize that they are just baited by some people who try to stole their balances so they must be more careful with this and avoid scam airdrops.

I visited some tele groups about looking for airdrops and they actually expressed their disappointment to a negative level with SEI. Actually, I don't think this problem needs to be too serious because it's not any project. always brings generosity to the community, and the story of SEI bringing anger from the community will probably also be a clearer view of ambiguous projects about marketing programs to attract users, just be transparent from the beginning about the reward story so that those pursuing this job will not be further disappointed. But if it's a bit fair because I myself have also sought opportunities from airdrops, testnets,... then I have to admit that the tasks are too easy to repeat every day, so if I receive a large amount of money that's a great thing, but even if it's just a small amount of money, it doesn't matter because it's not a main job.
