A well-known Web3 project's airdrop mechanism has attracted attention. The latest round of airdrop registration surprisingly requires a fee of $3.3, and users cannot confirm their eligibility before registration. This practice has sparked discussions within the community.
Investors who have been involved since the early stages of the project pointed out that there is a clear bias in the allocation process—many well-known individuals who have never actively participated in the ecosystem received substantial allocations, while long-term contributors received relatively limited benefits. This allocation logic has disappointed many ecosystem participants.
Industry observers believe that the project's lack of transparency and fairness in distribution can weaken community trust and also reflect logical issues in the airdrop design of some projects.
