The more I look at the airdrop season, the more it feels like I’m working a regular job. The moment the task platform’s anti-bot/anti-witch measure gets upgraded and the points system rolls out, I have to keep everything—screenshots, signatures, and interaction records—or I’ll really lose my mind when it’s time to reconcile the books at the end of the year.
To put it simply, every time I switch positions or do anything on-chain now, I just export the exchange’s deal/execution records, paste the on-chain hash into a spreadsheet, and add a note like “what this transaction is for.” I’m not aiming to be super professional—at least I can make everything line up.
And don’t trust “I’ll organize it later,” because human memory is just too unreliable. I don’t regret the outcome—I regret that at the time I thought it was a hassle and didn’t save the evidence and transaction history properly by date… That’s it for now.
Anyway, I’d rather spend an extra 5 minutes now than stay up all night the evening before the filing just trying to report everything.
