Has anyone else noticed how exhausting the whole points meta has become?
Seriously, open any new project announcement and there it is - another points system. You grind through tasks, accumulate numbers on a dashboard, and then... nothing. Months turn into a year. The TGE that was "coming soon"? Still nowhere in sight. Teams just keep dangling that carrot while extracting user activity.
Here's a wild idea: what if projects actually told us why we should give a damn? Not through gamified farming mechanics, but through genuine value. Show me how your product solves a real headache I deal with. Make me feel something beyond FOMO.
The strongest communities aren't built on point farmers waiting for an airdrop exit. They're built on people who actually believe in what you're building. Maybe it's time we remembered that?

Damn, I've started skipping the points system explanations for projects, just like watching ads.

The points system is really an eyewash, I'm so confused. It's been a year and I'm still waiting for the TGE?

This farming trap is really annoying, I've been waiting for that TGE that will never come for a year, it's driving me crazy.

To be honest, I have long been fed up. Every day it’s all about points, and in the end, there’s nothing to show for it. This time, they really play people for suckers.

Damn, I was wondering why there have been so many air projects lately, turns out they are all playing this trap of points.
So farming is all there is, right? It's been a year and they're still waiting for tge, makes me laugh to death.

Another point system, another year of waiting in vain... I am already an expert in this regard.

Really, this points system is becoming a joke, there are many projects that haven't moved for a year.

Another infinite trap of points farming, I'm really tired of it. The crypto world has been drained by the points system like this.

The points system is just a big eyewash, I'm so confused. A year ago, the "coming soon" is still just a pipe dream.
