Social mining, to put it simply, is about "on-chain-ifying" your habit of scrolling through your phone and giving you some points as a consolation prize. As you keep scrolling, you start caring about badges, levels, and identities, like working but without a paycheck… What's more awkward is that once the project's narrative breaks, the points turn into commemorative coins, and arguing in governance groups all night won't recover the liquidity evaporation. Modularization and the DAO layer are topics developers talk about enthusiastically, but users are still confused and just click tasks to earn points—anyway, it's about keeping people engaged first. My approach is pretty straightforward: only do interactions related to products I genuinely want to use, and forget the rest; once the time is spent, you can't get attention back.
