Recently, doing tasks on platforms really feels a bit like clocking in at work: checking in daily, linking a bunch of things, filling out forms and taking screenshots, and finally keeping an eye on the scoring system so you don't fall behind. I can also understand why more and more witches are appearing; project teams are afraid of being exploited, but honestly, it now seems more like "who can pretend to be a serious user better," not who is actually using the product.
I've recently changed my mindset: first look at public information and on-chain data, see if it makes sense before doing anything, and even if I do, I treat it as a casual experience, not considering airdrops as wages. Especially after seeing cross-chain bridges get hacked again, and oracles having abnormal quotes, the whole network has a consensus of "wait for confirmation before acting," which is quite realistic—until security is thoroughly figured out, high scores don't mean much. If you also feel tired, then do less, and save some brainpower for more certain things.
