Recently, I've been looking into airdrop interactions again, and I feel that the easiest thing to get caught off guard by isn't technology, but mindset... As soon as I see "possibly," I get itchy, and then my wallet ends up with a bunch of unnecessary authorizations. My approach is pretty simple: first, think clearly about whether I’m willing to stay in this protocol for at least a month or two, and whether I need it; if not, don’t force it just for a small chance.

When interacting, don’t chase the most "human-like" complex paths, as they are more likely to be cut off by rules. Use small amounts, fewer protocols, fewer chains jumping back and forth—what’s key is to understand authorization and liquidity exit strategies, and treat transaction fees as costs for bookkeeping. By the way, I want to complain about the current MEV/ordering system—retail investors are often caught in the middle, while miners/validators are making pretty good profits... So I prefer limit orders, batch operations, and operations that can be avoided if possible, to avoid getting sandwiched. Anyway, if you miss out, you miss out—don’t turn yourself into a leek (a victim of being repeatedly exploited).
