Lately, interacting with airdrops has been pretty exhausting. Everyone is afraid of being front-run and also worried about missing the next wave. My habits are pretty simple: I only look at three things—where the money is coming in and going out, whether the contract has the authority to change rules at will, and whether the project team is slowly selling or dumping all at once. To put it plainly, I treat complexity as an enemy, and I prefer to confirm risks with the fewest steps possible without overcomplicating things.

And about the main public chains' upgrades/maintenance—before and after, everyone in the group is guessing whether the ecosystem will migrate. I’m actually more cautious: during these times, bridges, cross-chain, and temporary front-ends are most likely to have issues. It’s better to delay interactions by a day if possible. If you really want to participate, it’s fine—use small limits, isolate wallets, revoke permissions after use. Don’t treat your wallet as a public toilet just for a “possible airdrop.” Anyway, I’d rather take less than risk being front-run and then comfort myself with the idea that “the learning curve is part of the process.”
