Recently, someone asked me again how to do airdrop interactions. My take is pretty “basic”: treat “anti-snipe” as the default outcome—don’t treat every step like an investment. If it works, use it; don’t force it just to rack up interactions, especially those that are clearly “task portals.” Once you enable the wallet permissions, you’re hit with a pile of approvals—later, revoking those authorizations is even more exhausting than the interaction itself. As for fees, I’ll set a personal cap; if it goes over, I stop. If you miss out, then you miss out—don’t let FOMO be your motivation.

What I fear most isn’t losing money, but spending a week staring at the mempool, swapping between L2s back and forth, and finally realizing I’ve just been doing unpaid work to serve someone else’s reporting metrics… By the way, the recent “NFT royalty” royalty-debate “water war” also feels pretty similar: creators want stable income, the secondary market wants liquidity, and in the end it’s ordinary people who get caught in the middle. Once the rules change, you have to adapt again.

Right now, I’m leaning toward small amounts, fewer protocols, and fewer wallets. If an interaction is reproducible, I’ll write it down, then look it over again the next day to see if anything feels off. That’s it for now.
