Recently, I've come across a bunch of social mining and points tasks again, clicking around feels like going to work... Honestly, no matter how good the badges look, they’re not really worth me dedicating my evenings. Especially now, everyone is talking about rate cut expectations and the US dollar index, with risk assets sometimes rising together and sometimes falling together, and when sentiment shifts, points might suddenly lose their appeal.
Thinking it over, I still prefer to pick up shells slowly during the tide: choose two or three identities/protocols that are truly useful, occasionally check on on-chain whales moving around, and leave the rest to fate. Don’t drain your time and mental energy for a “possible airdrop,” I don’t want to be led around by tasks anyway.
