Telegram airdrops are losing their value

[Sir_Garry55]

How many of us can remember when everyone was tapping on their phone continuously Just to make money, projects like notcoin, dogs and hamster Kombat made people think that getting paid by doing such tasks would happen consistently. As time went on a lot of other airdrops that started coming up were just a waste of people's time, energy and effort. Right now most of the ongoing projects that were once popular like Blum and the rest of them are losing value, a lot of people are no longer interested. If you want to farm reasonable airdrops I suggest that you stick to testnets, they might take time but your efforts won't be wasted. The bright side of these telegram airdrops is that they introduced a lot of people to the crypto space, beginners are now able to sell their assets on different exchange. To those who are still actively involved in airdrops this topic isn't meant to discourage you, keep doing it as long as you are getting results. But making good money from crypto can only be gotten by trading or hodling.

I simply don't understand this part of your post. Why should someone farm testnet if he isn't a developer or something? Testnet is just a separate Blockchain for testing a new project. Or is there any other meaning to it I don't know of? Those telegram airdrops were fun while it lasted. A lot of persons made some really good amount of money just by taping or playing those games. There are still a couple of them but there aren't worth wasting your time on. Like you said, the best way to making money in crypto is by trading and holding. So I agree with that.

Well you can not advice someone who is making a reasonable amount of money from this airdrop to focu only in the testnets, you might feel it is a waste of time, but to others it worth it.

Some of this airdrops you just mentioned here, a lots of people made huge amount of money from it, maybe you have not met with anyone of them, though some persons was not very lucky. And some actually take them for granted thinking it is a total waste of time till you see someone else's achievement then you will try not to jock with it next time. Yes someone can still participate in airdrops and trading as well to make cool cash

Coupled with the fact that testnet demands a high level of professionalism in crypto to carry out. Not everyone can run a testnet mining.

Talking about Airdrops, it's credibility was lost after series of listings that ended up as DUST.

I can remember telling my friends that Hamster may end up being one of the most successful projects in Airdrop era because they never requested anything from the community but paid the much they could.

Recently, almost every Airdrops now want you to invest. Even after investing, the listing price will still keep you at a lost. No one wants to loose, hence, I believe that Airdrop farming may tactically crash completely but it all depends on this January listings.

You are right. Someone who is not making money from the airdrop will think it’s wasting money because he thinks what he’s experiencing is the same as what people are also experiencing, which is that some people are making money from it. That is why you will see that despite criticising the stuff, people are still doing it; this is because many people are still making out of it.

Although the fact is that Telegram airdrops some of them are taking too much time before it gets lunch, and this is what discourages many people with a lot of stress that comes with it, and that is what people are avoiding. Some also did not pay at the end of the day; maybe that is why OPThink leaving it will be better.

That's true. Testnets na difficult terrains to meander through as dem be unfinished projects wey dey go through test run. Na im make devs dem and their teams dey ask people to help dem run checks on those projects for dem. Na because as e dey hard dey make many people nor dey keen on doing dem. Projects want to know what isn't working well or what things aren't in their right positions before going to mainnet. Na all dis reasons why testnets aren't that easy to engage. Anyhow wey d thing be, we supposed acknowledge sey rewards dey betta wit testnets pas telegram bot airdrops as na only a few people dey do am.

I can remember telling my friends that Hamster may end up being one of the most successful projects in Airdrop era because they never requested anything from the community but paid the much they could.

Hamster also nor perform well at listing. Na dust wey im turn to too. A lot of these telegram airdrops dem dey dat way now. Nothing surprising at all. Apart from Notcoin and Dogs wey sama us with betta rewards, maybe Not Pixel which will list this month will also do well, others na yawa. Despite asking for payment to even do their tasks, those wayo projects dem end up dashing airdrop hunters' hope.

I believe that Airdrop farming may tactically crash completely but it all depends on this January listings.

I'm gradually moving to testnets myself, and I believe many other hunters too don begin reason dis matta well now. No time to waste energy unnecessarily.

I’m also waiting for a response as to what other value testnets have, because to the best of my knowledge, they’re solely for testing purposes and I think it can easily be gotten if I’m not wrong.
I earned from Dogs and the rest projects were a total mess maybe to me 😢
Personally I wouldn’t advise anyone especially a newbie who’s trying to figure a path in cryptocurrency to ever try airdrops because with my few experience on airdrops especially the telegram mini apps, I think it’s a total waste of time .

There are several other options to earn something tangible from crypto but not airdrops and even if you have hopes of airdrops, I wouldn’t recommend the telegram mini app airdrops except you’re ready to always get unhappy

How many of us can remember when everyone was tapping on their phone continuously Just to make money,

It was a trend that many people got involved in because of the hype that was around it then. Many of the people who were involved in this airdrops then hunting and chasing them tirelessly have now quit or abandoned it simply because they did not benefit as much as they expected from the airdrops. The people who from these airdrops became introduced to investing in cryptocurrency and developed an interest in it are fewer considering that most of the people who were involved in the airdrops were simply more interested in making profits than gaining knowledge.

The trend was insane on social media especially tapswap, every social media platform you log into people were showing how they were tapping on their phones tirelessly, Nigerians are really good at overhyping. It turns out now that these airdrops are just a waste of time and people are now beginning interest. The percentage of those who got actively involved in crypto currency from participating in airdrops are quite lower than those that abandoned it. Just like you said, people who were just interested in Farming airdrops were just after how to make money they didn't for the knowledge.

[Different patterns]

. Right now most of the ongoing projects that were once popular like Blum and the rest of them are losing value, a lot of people are no longer interested.

Yes is true say telegram mining dey lose value, but there's still people that are still forming it because they believe that it will pay, even people that lose interest are those  people that came for quick money, and when they waited for so long dem become inpatient and give up immediately, If not telegram mining has being operating for long-term, the only thing that spoil telegram mining now, nah scammers that's why people don't know real and fake projects.

A lot of people have put there hope in all this airdrop and just exactly what you said it's a trend and it's Gradually fading away because it's one issue or the other and the most common is that they will not pay or when they eventually pay it's going to be peanut and a lot of people are already losing intrest in all those telegram airdrops and I don't blame them because they already given there selfs high hope and it is getting worse so plenty people are not intrested.

And those times used in doing airdrops should be rather invested in bitcoin of something at least those once will yield something, I will not discourage people not to try there luck because there people that are making money out of all this and I can also testify that have benefited a lot from ot but it's looking more of scam to people now so trying your luck is not bad.

People are already discouraged by the way airdrop are eating up peoples time and yet people get peunot at the end of long time participating in such airdrop. I don't think if people are even interested anymore because it is embarrassing to participate in an aidrop for months and end up getting dust as airdrop which does even Worth the time spent for it. As for me I will say %99 of airdrop on telegram are fake and worth nothing. I will not even advice people to try those airdrop again rather invest in Bitcoin with what you can afford to lose . At least in the future you will have a tangible thing to lay hoands on.

Most people don’t tap tire, and at the end, Wetin dem give them no really worth am, and some of those coins self, dem no list them on exchange, so e just be like say there effort don wastes. Make I use Hamster kombat as example, we all saw how people Dey tap their screen that time just because they wan make money, some people tap screen for like 6 months hoping they going to get millions of naira, their expectation don too high, and at the end, most of them get less than $20, and some people na $2, $3, $4 na him dem Dey see, so you self reason am, how people no go discourage.

Me self participated in some telegram airdrop, Dey get some wey I get some reasonable amount of money, because Wetin I get for catizen no really bad, but most of those airdrops, make I no lie you, na dust dem give people, since na money everybody Dey look for wey Dey make dem tap screen, and they no come Dey get d money, na y plenty people lose interest be that.

Me self get like two wey I Dey do wey Dey don Dey talk about listing since, but nothing sup up till now, and I no Dey sure say dem go list those coins, and even if they later list them, me self don know already say na dust people go get from the coin.

[Zigabel]

The pool of beginners in crypto now is even an advantage which can be utilised because thi has increased trade volume for mote crypto projects and for those who make money of teaching,  they will be having too many new students now to attend their classes to get answer to their questions.

The tapping projects come later cast na why pipo sef no come dey too run am again because based on say many pipo been dey run am, as dem dey luch, d money dey too small e come dey make pipo discourage say dem no go do am again so the thing no come dey pay naim pipo vex say dem go just leave am but dis ur new idea sha make sense.

Did they have value before? There is basically no difference between those Telegram airdrops and computer games and their creators never created them to solve any human problems instead to just make money from the traffic from people that are looking for free money. With those  traffic into their Youtube channel and other social media, they are able to make so money from the millions of loyal players that will will deliver to them that engagements daily. I realized this late after wasting my time and resources in a some of them I did and from the moment I realized this, I stopped and channeled my time into more productive things.

Yeah, you dey correct by your explanation of testnet but e dey type by type. E get some wey require some level of programming knowledge. Mainly nah debugging you go dey do and dey report errors, so that the project developer go fix the errors. While some of them no require programming language and anybody go fit participate. The tasks mainly nah  just to connect your social media accounts and wallet and begin to dey bridge the test tokens from one chain to another and you go dey eligible to receive airdrop.

They never had such value we think they had before because it was just through people they were gaining some recognition but now that those that was making them to have such recognition has said no that's why is looking that way, though is a petty for the ones that will be coming now because people eyes has been open to see that all the money those other projects was making was actually through them, so they will not allow any other projects to do the same thing to them, however I have even notice a hatred from people over those airdrops and even my neighbor who does nothing but doing only airdrops has now seen it as a nightmare, I'm glad people are not giving any room for them because scam should not be promoted, those kelebe done shop people too much.

But I have also come to understand that most people that have been scammed by Airdrops are those who needed to earn more. During Airdrop mining, once you are satisfied with the one you mined and don't go into minting or stuffs like that, you wouldn't get scammed.

I still know that almost all the Airdrops don't make that investment a criteria for qualification, they only make you to understand that you will earn more by investing which is the reason why many get Dust that won't even be up to their investments at last .

The fact is that nobody knows the airdrop that wl be promising. After Hamster and Elon meme coins came out, most airdrop participants that got interested in airdrop through Ton got discouraged with the dust payment from Hamster.

What I keep wondering is if anyone was lucky to participate in TRUMP meme coin airdrop, because that's the bomb currently as the price when it was lunched in exchange was $37 and it has pumped to $67 be fore dipping to $47. Unlike other meme coins that do depreciates in value after lunching it in an exchange.

The Telegram airdrops really took a toil on people's time and money. Some projects required  gas fees, and you had to buy ton as gas fees. It's sad how these projects spoiled the credibility of airdrops. Not all coins or tokens had a negative impact, though some, like Dogs , really made a good impact. For some of us, it was like a passive source of income.

I personally benefited from Dogs, so it wasn't a waste of time. However, when Telegram airdrops gained popularity, it seemed like they couldn't handle the demand and couldn't pay people well. It still wasn't right to use people's time and take their money without paying them back.

It made me wonder if the purpose of the Telegram airdrop scheme was to drag people's attention in and then take their money. Although the popularity of Telegram airdrops has declined, some core airdropers are still participating. It may not be as popular as Hamster and Tap Swap, but people are still doing it.

With the drop in population of people taking Telegram airdrops seriously, the value of airdrops has indeed dropped. We haven't heard of any highly profitable airdrops since then even paws did nothing. Some people even deleted their Telegram accounts last year after hamster kombat.
