Came across a bunch of tutorials on AI agents automating airdrop farming, making it sound like a fully automatic money printing machine…

When actually running it, I found that during a gas spike, it still blindly rushes in. If the slippage setting is too tight, it gets stuck; if too loose, it gets sandwiched.

The most annoying part is with staking unlock events on certain chains—it can't understand fuzzy things like "selling pressure sentiment." It doesn't withdraw when it should, and doesn't wait when it should.

To put it bluntly, someone still needs to monitor and cover the downside, especially for projects with dense unlock calendars. The agent won't calculate "unlock volume vs actual circulation sentiment" for you; it only looks at code events.

Anyway, every time I let it run, I set a stop-loss line first, then monitor it for another half hour myself. Consider it a human redundancy.

That's it for now. I'm off to work.
