Recently, from the performance of several major mining projects, the returns are not very satisfactory. I personally started to gradually fade out of the mining circle since the issuance of coins by stark, and have been engaged in the field of mining.
But in my opinion, the underlying logic of mining and lu mao is the same. They are just a means of token distribution. However, lu mao is more inclined to early TGE token acquisition, which is exactly the same as us on the testnet.
"Token distribution" starts from BTC's POW, to later public sale, and now to the current airdrop.
It is obvious that fur lumps are the most unfair, opaque, and difficult-to-control means of obtaining tokens. Compared to POW's computing power pricing and public sale amount pricing, "fur lumps" is a relatively poor way of performance.
But will this industry disappear? I don't think so.
From the beginning of POS, how to ensure that retail investors have enough tokens to provide sufficient market liquidity and participate in POS node stake has always been a big problem. The new token distribution method of '撸毛' solves this problem, so there is a reason for this field to exist.
It can be foreseen that from the previous political correctness to the current diversity in the crypto world, the reliance on token distribution methods like '撸毛' will gradually decrease. We have always believed that we are on the right path.
