These days, someone is again watching on-chain large transfers and exchange hot and cold wallet movements to interpret "smart money." Just looking at it makes me a bit tired... To be honest, it might just be moving or reconciling, so don’t get itchy to interact just because you see it. Airdrops are the easiest to be front-run: protocols secretly change fee rates, thresholds, or reward algorithms, and the announcements are all vague. By the time you finish checking, you'll find there's a "version update."

I'm now quite rigid: first, check if the contract/frontend has recently changed parameters like fee rates, blacklists, minimum amounts—save all screenshots you can; only interact with functions you already know how to use. Small amounts, dispersed, slow and steady—better to miss out than chase after mistakes.
What I regret isn’t the outcome, but that I felt something was off at the time and still pushed through, purely driven by FOMO. Anyway, for now, this is how it is—if there’s no airdrop, I won’t go hungry.
