Bounty and airdrops didn't disappoint you, you did disappoint yourself.

[Odusko]

There have been a lot of noise all over the cryptocurrency space recently, and all is about telegram tap to earn airdrops, which is a new trend in the crypto bounty's space, and I have to come out to clear what I believe is the truth and as experience cryptocurrency lover I know exactly what I am saying.

Many airdrop hunters are disappointed at most of the recently launched coins that they participated in the airdrop program and a lot of them have shown their anxiety and frustration, all they say I that this coins scam them and that coin is a failure simply because the team refused to give them tons of coins to cash out free money, or because the price they expected the coin to get listed or pumped to have failed to come by this time.

Judging from this, we can say that the problem is not with the coin's, but the problem is with the airdrop participants, since greed have taken over them to the point that a team will give them $1000 or more rewards for doing nothing only by just tapping on their screen, or because the expected the team to pump the price of the coin on exchange just to favor their own desire, all this will not end well for the team and will not be achievable for them, so before you blame them first of all accept your mistake of building a mansion out of a mullhill and move on.

I'm just going to say this because I said it once before but that was after the Notcoin drop. The Notcoin airdropped showed a lotvof these web2 folks that anything is possible in crypto. I know a lot of normies that hit it big with that one and told their friends and family of this free money frenzy. They jumped right and set their expectations too damn high. I tend to approach projects like this with a pessimistic mindset because every other project that follows a first mover is mostly a flop. Only a few will go to the far end of doing well but I doubt anyone will do it better than the first mover.

Now there is more
1. Dilution (same allocation but more participants)
2. Project teams no longer give full allocations to community).

So less tokens and 10-20x the participants.

Just like in the case of Bitcoin success paving way for shitcoins altcoins, it sucks how fork's put so much expectations on this projects that comes after the first success recorded by the first one, notcoin took many of them by surprised and from there fork's think it will all be business as usual but team have to do what their gat to do, and this is the result of that right here.

I am not surprised at the approach adopted by Hamster teams since because of the awareness the hard over populated participants and alot of abuser's, so to safe the project from total collapse, the have to adopt this method of token distribution and pricing.

I still do not see any reason why people will put their life expectance on something that has never come life especially that of airdrops, though I had a very few experience on airdrop but what guided me most here is the numbers of post and comments I do read here and this has shaping my understanding and how to follow up these airdrops because if I don't I would end up being hurt as well and again, this is just like a freewill donation and for that it must required a minor task. That is to keep tapping on their screen or even following their media pages and do some share/like and comments to gain this free money.

I believe people should least expect from the expected and anytime they keeps expecting from people and they didn't work as planned then it turns back to be bad where they would start blaming the project owner for not putting up what they expected. True we know that it's actually hard for such project to pay out huge time to billions of people who downloaded that app and I must say, they do try to have even raised billions to distribute across the billions users of the airdrop app.

True. People disappoint themselves expecting that they will get rich real quick by tapping few pixels. Yes, some people did get lucky, but it was because they joined something similar before it became a hype/trend. There were only few people hunting those airdrops/bounty/tap to earn games. But now everyone does that. I mean lets say a $1000 worth of tokens were being dropped and only like 5 people knew about it and were looking forward for that airdrop. That is like $200 per person. But now like 100k people are looking for a similar airdrop. That is now like 0.01$ per person. But those people don't realize this,  and when they receive those free coins, they get disappointed. Imagine doing tasks for months, and then you receive peanuts for it. But I wont completely blame the people. Those developers are also to be blamed. They know what's going on in peoples mind and they advertise their project in such a way that makes the participants feel like they will receive something very good. They make their airdrop sound like they will make their participants rich overnight. So yeah the airdrop disappoints people and so does people disappoint themselves too.

[X-ray]

expectation is too high especially from newbies, they see some news where people earn tons of money from NOT, now they immediately think they will earn same amount in the same niche project.
no wonder the participation of project like telegram project in general are so high because it's pure FOMO that drive the entire people to join the bandwagon.

but this kind of complaint happens anywhere not only limited to free airdrop but even airdrop that require capital spending. the whales want most of the allocation to be allocated to the people who contributes most using the capital while the majority of community want pro-rata distribution.

airdrop distribution will always have people who try to shit on the project and those who support the project because it benefits them. so such disappointment is to be expected and I think project maker understand this from day one.

Judging from this, we can say that the problem is not with the coin's, but the problem is with the airdrop participants, since greed have taken over them to the point that a team will give them $1000 or more rewards for doing nothing only by just tapping on their screen,

If a team does not give out what is expected, then I could understand why many would feel defeated and betrayed. After all, they did dedicate their efforts and time into the project they believed in. Since the team promised to give out rewards, they should comply to it no matter what however after the airdrops are given it is not in the team’s jurisdiction anymore what will happen to the token.

so before you blame them first of all accept your mistake of building a mansion out of a mullhill and move on.

We really should not expect too much from airdrops. Trying to build a living out of airdrop hunting is not sustainable but I know people who do which is why obviously they feel frustrated when things do not go their way. As long as the team did everything they promised, the price of the listing is not their fault anymore and there’s nothing they can do about it.

It’s one thing to participate in airdrops and be hopeful and it’s another to depend on airdrops completely and believing every project will be the next big thing.

You present several excellent points. As for the competitive trend inside the crypto space, most participants enter based on unrealistic expectations of quick profit. Sooner or later, they get frustrated with disappointed expectations. Focusing on quick returns leads to reason. Frustration when projects don't come out as expected. Wind turbines can be a fantastic way to get involved in the community. However, participants should approach them with an open mind. Not every project will deliver substantial benefits, ultimately, understanding the risks and how to work with those is important for all participants in this space.

That is correct, high expectations. When stories about other important benefits are spread among beginners, it is so easy to get caught up in the buzz as FOMO would definitely drive engagement that is causing a lot of people to jump into a project without knowing the risks in store.

It's difficult to alter the distribution of the air droplets. Whales are always willing to get the largest share. Meanwhile, regular participants hope for a fairer and more proportionate deal. These tensions go alive in many projects. And, understandably, complaints have emerged on both sides. It's challenging for designers of a project to anticipate these reactions from the very onset. This once again highlights the need for better communication together with realistic expectations at the start.

[Mate2237]

I agreed with you on 99% and disagreed with you on 1%  and why the 1%? Because you said the participants were aiming to receive "FREE Money". Op I didn't not see them as free money and if care is not taking those participants performed tasks more than campaign participants here in the forum. They tapped, following them on all the social media, listening to audio notes and video notes from the airdrop company. And also playing different games. So it is not free.

But the 99% is that the participants were having the mindset that the airdrop would pay them big amount of money because probably they have done well and follow all the rules and have enough airdrop token which counted to millions and billions. And they also forgotten that the participants were also millions to billions so there is no way the company would pay big amount to all the billions and if they do, they would end of spending trillions of dollars. And that is where they disappointed themselves.

I forgot the name of the platform because there are 4 of the same concept, but they claimed that their platform is attracting newbies in the cryptocurrency, and with their videos that participants are obliged to watch, they educate these newbies about what cryptocurrency is.

Unfortunately, these newbies will find it hard to accept that all their months of hard work, effort and time spent will be worthless, They should have made a disclaimer about the volatility of the market and their platform, not a get rich platform.
Partly to blame on this are influencers who, out of greed from the points that they are going to earn from their referral efforts, deceived their referrals and fed with the thought that they can make a lot of money from tapping their cellphone.

[markm]

From a developer perspective, maybe some participants do disappoint not only ultimately themselves but also the developers.

In the Galactic Milieu we try to keep in mind that money is IOUs, which of course is something the original Ripple project whose name and idea was bought-out by what became Ripple Labs or whatever (the seemingly "Big Brother" oriented commercial project) made very clear and evident.

Whether Ripple and its sibling Stellar still really hammer that point home or not is maybe just a matter of opinion / eyes-of-the-beholder.

Accordingly we try to keep it clear that ultimately it is up to the citizens of a "civilisation" (or etc label for a group of users / participants) to "back" its currency.

Think along the lines of a market stall or a shop offering "just a collection of antiques and curios", "antique coins", "collectibles", heck there are even some selling particular instances of Canadian 2-dollar "bills" (IOUs) for more than $2.00CAD. There goes fungability, ohhh noes!

Isn't it reasonable to offer customers a "return policy", "money back if not satisfied, minus a small restocking fee" or whatever?

If "spot markets" are your go-to for measuring "value", the value pretty much boills down to the height in price of the "buy side".

So if you as a participant want the coin token IOU currency art-piece musical-score or whatever else you are "dealing in" to have value it behooves you to build its "buy side" and thus not to "dump" by selling to existing buy offers consuming "liquidity" by converting "liquidity" into momentary "volume".

But I've covered all this so many times over more than a decade so I might as well point over to https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=624935.msg52814540#msg52814540

You do actually said the right thing and this is really whats happening now but we do know that bounty hunters or airdroppers are really he ones who are at fault on which we do know that majority of them
do really expect that they could get some free money into it and some significant amounts, on the time or moment that they do recieve peanuts then the project would be called a scam and as for those
owners then there's nothing they can do about it because as a project owner then you cant just gave out a huge amount on the airdrop on which you would be focusing into the project development.
When the community do end up on having that kind of bad impression then it do really affect out the project negatively on which it turned out to be a shit situation for those project owners.

We do know that once the entire community does have that kind of bad impressions or really having that kind of negative views towards a project then it will really be leading up
into such demise and its really just that sad for those projects but actually there are really that still those shit devs and projects that people do end up on having those kind of
conclusions on which making up some negative insights or inputs does tell out on how shit a project would be.

This is a form of disappointment because they have gone through a long task of working on the airdrop, tapping on the screen which in the end is disappointing and does not match expectations, not because of the greed of the participants, it is natural for them to complain because after they have worked in the sense of doing the task, what they get is not comparable to what they have done or sacrificed

So, are you of the opinion that $2 reward for taping on a P2E game for 4 months is a great reward to newbies who devoted their time and burn some data is expection for just a fair reward at least? Participants are not wrong to expect just a fair reward for the stress of taping a game for more than 8 weeks.

For perspective, how many dollars does a new business owner / founder "earn per hour" typically the first year or few?

These are presumably entry-level persons we are speaking of, yes?

Starting up their little at home "crypto business" or "play to earn business"?

In online marketing it is often advertised (as incentive, usually, to choose a particular "funnel" or e-book or well basically "project" in our local to here terminology), that 95% of persons attempting to break into the field lose money.

Other ads say become one of the 3% that succeed, so maybe we can figure 95 to 97 percent lose money, maybe?

As I posted examples of lately already so will not burden you in this post with the links to my own examples of such "projects", clicking for "credits", "points", etc, basically "exposure of your own ads or pages to others", is a backbone of the whole field.

Try the experiment of spending a year or two trying to "make money from home" by clicking.

Heck pour a thousand or two or more bucks of crypto profits into trying it (like I did, and I still find it horribly time and effort consuming compared to how lucrative crypto has been for me).

Then come back and tell us how much per hour clicking to earn ought to averagely earn per hour for the first year or two or more.

See you next year, or the next, or the next?

Now airdrops seem even easier to do than airdrops in the past which have various types of tasks that need to be done carefully every time the work is done or at any time during the airdrop period.

Now, the airdrop trend focuses on the TON network by using the Telegram Mini App as a place that can be accessed by everyone.
Only beginner materials can do it very easily.

In the past, I was not only an airdrop, but the work for Bounty was also done quite difficult and needed consistency to be able to get rewards.
Now, with only a mobile phone and the telegram application, everything can be done very easily.

The results given also depend on how well you do marketing using the referral link given and some of the tasks that are done.

Many users are disappointed with the results, even though it is quite a maximum result, such as in the last Airdrop, namely Hamster Combat with a lot of disappointment of airdrop hunters because it only provides a very small profit and is not worth the work done for months.

Telegram airdrop of this day's is at easier to do and in most cases have it own way of addicting newbies into putting all their time in it and this have become an issue of concern in most cases, and one thing that deceive most of this people is because of the marking of their rewards are mark in dollars so let say Hamster tokens balance on the apps have the dollar sign on it and that becomes a point of deception for many people thinking that the token accumulated represent Dollars instead taking notes of what the token price will be on the excahges.

This mistake of value have resulted into so much disappointment for many of them seeing the real token value in the market right now, this makes them feels that the project have under paid them not knowing that it they that mislead themselves at first.

Also the idea of even having to put so much hope on an airdrop is somewhat a wrong idea and for some reason even Experience cryptocurrency enthusiasm also fall for this which is not surpose to be so in the first place.
