Recently watching airdrop interactions, it feels a bit like walking a tightrope: if you don’t move, you might miss out; if you move too much, you’re likely to get rekt and pulled into a scam. My approach is pretty cautious: I only touch projects that I can clearly explain “what exactly they solve,” keep the wallet separate, and keep the amount small enough that if you lose it, you won’t be heartbroken. Before you sign, double-check the permissions—if you can, set limits. After the interaction, revoke the authorizations a few days later as a convenient follow-up.
Layer2 is louder than ever when it comes to TPS, fees, and subsidies, but subsidies arrive fast and disappear just as quickly—running after the hype is genuinely exhausting. Forget it—plainly speaking: don’t turn yourself into a free tester just for a few “possible tickets.” Take it slow, keep some cash flow, and let sleep matter too.
