Lately, someone has been urging me again, "Hurry up and interact or the airdrop will be gone," but I’ve become even more relaxed... Honestly, what I fear most isn’t missing the opportunity itself, but the moment I get emotionally pulled along again. My current simple approach is: first, check if the project is overdoing the "completing tasks" part; the more it feels like KPI pressure, the less I want to engage. Then, look at the wallet costs—gas fees, time, signature risks added up—and decide if it’s worth that little "possible reward." Also, the unlocking calendar is constantly being pushed, and the pressure and anxiety from that are quite contagious. I try not to chase interaction hype before or after unlocking, preferring to take less rather than get caught in a counterattack. Anyway, with airdrops, if you miss it, you miss it—don’t see yourself as a miner.
