Want to know if a project's "airdrop" is actually worth your time? Here's the telltale sign I've noticed:



When they suddenly drop a token sale or ICO announcement.

Yeah, that $0.2 they're dangling? It's not coming from nowhere. Those "community rewards" for testers and yappers? They're really just asking you to buy in first. Classic bait-and-switch energy. The moment you see that fundraising pitch pop up, you know the free tokens were never really free.

Seen this play out too many times now.

It's the same trick again; using the guise of free tokens just to harvest the retail investors.

Bro, I've seen this trick many times before, free tokens? Hehe, that's just a hook.

They're at it again, trying to fleece retail investors. I could recite this routine backward and forward.

Damn, it's the same old trick again. I'm already tired of it. The moment of having my free dream shattered.

Old tricks again, really, it’s always the same. Airdrop? Haha, first let you free ride, then cut you off.
