until the end

- Hey, @lens/hey, why did my score go from 3000 (+2000 Hey Zorb) points down to 1500 (+2000 Hey Zorb) points? My points literally halved over the course of the last couple of days? Is it because I am more active on Orb now or what?
- Does anyone know how to quit airdrop farming?
- Blast Gold is exactly as predicted - $2.5.
As of today I am -15% on Blast airdrop + lost a bunch of time deposiing, bridging and farming gems on DistrictOne.
By August the loss will be even bigger because I have OLE staked for the next 2 months and this shit definitely goes to zero.
How is it called when you invest your money and spend your time to eventually lose even more money?
Right, airdrop farming.
This shit is even more of a scam than slavery.
Now I have to spend an entire evening to claim these peanuts and walk away with the loss (which is going to get even bigger over time).
- I give you my alpha, guys.
While altcoins make new lows, dead ghostchain Phantasma (SOUL) is ranging.
Exactly as my indicator predicted.
-20% from the current prices is possible but not lower.
- Call me stupid but I refuse to sell ZRO below at least $10B valuation.
The last round raised $120M at $3B valuation, overall $260M was invested, current mcap is $750M and no unlocks until June 2025(!).
For that matter, ZK is in a very similar situation as well.
- Be the support you want to see
- I have a question: does my activity on Orb effect my points on Hey?
- At which point do we all agree that farming airdrops is -EV?
Every time an airdrop disappoints, we tell ourselves "it's okay, the next drop will do better".
Starknet scams -> zkSync will be better.
Polyhedra scams -> LayerZero will be better.
zkSync scams -> LayerZero will be better.
LayerZero scams -> Blast will be better.
I already can predict my own thoughts when Blast will scam us - "Layer3 will be better". Then Layer3 rugs -> "Elixir will be better". Elixir scams -> "Scroll will be better". Scroll rugs -> "Linea will be better". Linea scams -> "Hyperlane will be better" and so on.
What is our stop-loss?
- CEO of LayerZero once again reminded us that for the most part, crypto attracts outright scammers or people with low moral standards, to say the least. You have to be really prone to shady activities young man to found a crypto startup. Think about it - real innovators, visionaries, bussinessmen don't touch crypto with a ten-feet pole for a reason.
The only crypto founders who are not outright scammers are Vitalik Buterin, Brian Armstrong, Gavin Wood, Bram Cohen, creators of Monero and probably Sergey Nazarov (and whoever the founders of Notcoin are).
Everyone else came here to create as useless a piece of shit as possible, with as high a valuatuon as possible and with as predatory tokenomics as possible.
- I refuse to live in the world in which LayerZero is worth as much as Wormhole. It's either Wormhole dumps or $ZRO pumps.
Btw, I hope you understand that if you hold $W, you must convert it into $ZRO asap.
- As a rule, you want to jeet your drop as soon as possible but I think $ZRO will be the exception (based on the current pre-market price). There's no way LayerZero = Wormhole FDV wise. LayerZero should be worth at least twice as much as Wormhole + LayerZero farmers don't sit on much of a profit + the last round was raised at 3B valuation. Everything indicates at that selling below $7.5 isn't smart + probably pre-market participants are overly bearish on airdrop projects. The only thing I don't like is that ZK was listed just a few days ago so the attention is kind of diluted + Blast next week.
- Okay, it's less than $1000, sorry.
- Remember how everyone hated Starknet for their "bad" airdrop? It wasn't so bad, after all, wasn't it?
- Okay, half of a year has passed, so who do you think is a bigger fool of 2024 H1? Altcoin holder or airdrop hunter? One lost more money while the other one lost more time.
- August 2020 vibes as well
- July 2021 vibes in the air
- It's time to admit to myself that in 2020 I just got lucky to enter the market right before the alt season. No wonder I lost everything a year later.
So this cycle I didn't want to make "pathetic" +200% on Bitcoin so instead I made "outstanding" -66% on altcoins ๐คฆโ๏ธ
- Thanks God I didn't waste a minute learning automation software.
It's all about liquidity now.
- How to explain that feeling when your brain refuses to give you any dopamine to farm airdrops (and rightfully so)?
Imagine your blood being filled with broken glass and everytime you think about airdrops it starts moving.
That's how it feels to burn money and time on airdrops right now.
- Actually I decided not to.
Airdrops are dead and testnets were never alive.
- Ahhh... As soon as I decided to skip Initia testnet after the first week because of the sybils they make this alpha move.
Looks like Initita testnet is back on the menu, guys.
- Sold everything.
The best airdrop in history of airdrops (after Arbitrum, probably).
Regret not going heavy into this one but hey, who knew this shit was going to be worth anything, right?
- Something to think about.
- Direct messaging also sucks. You can't just DM someone. You have to manually type in his nickname. That's so clumsy.
- Okay, Orb app kind of fixes the problem (but still you have to switch to "Following" tab to see posts from people you follow.
- Such an underrated joke.
- I'm coming to the conclusion that Lens/Hey really sucks. No channels, no hashtags, the algorithm doesn't work at all, I don't see posts from people I follow but I see posts from people I marked as "not interested in", etc.
- Why my feed is full of people I don't follow and not a single post from people I follow?
- People who say "it's better late than never" have never activated their StarkNet accounts in October ๐
- We only care about airdrops we participate in and completely ignore any unfairness if it has nothing to do with us. We forget that if we don't stand up for our brothers today, tomorrow we will get rekt as well and no one will stand for us. We, farmers, should unite and fight back against the greedy teams.
- Airdrops went downhill right after StarkNet airdrop. We as a community failed to bully them into changing their not fair eligibility criteria. That's why projects feel free to do whatever they want regarding their airdrops today.
- I rarely give up. Now imagine how many people actually gave up? Could it be the pico-bottom for testnet airdrops? I think so. Time to grind more.
- by "missed out" I mean didn't do as much as I could (in case of Wormhole I did nothing). I was too busy "having fun" with Taiko Galxe Quests, with Xion, with Berachain, with MyShell and other shit. Leave testnets for industrial sybils and their thousands of accounts.
- I often see people saying to do "everything" regarding aidrops. I was one of those people. I've been doing everything: tier 1, tier 2, tier 3, testnets, galxe quests, intract quests, layer 3 quests, telegram apps, daily check-ins, etc. Result? Missed out on Polyhedra, missed out on Wormhole, missed out on LayerZero.
- btw, I decided to discontinue any activity in Initia testnet and any other testnets. Yeah, I've already spent too much time on Xion, Tea, Ten, Berachain, MyShell, Mint and other bullshit but I don't want to become a victim to sunk-cost fallacy.
- Ah, nevermind. Not going to touch this protocol with a ten-foot pole.
- Go to Taiko discord <https://discord.gg/taikoxyz> and report the scammers ๐
- I confirm, I had SO MUCH FUN doing these quests (no). Especially when I had to KYC myself for your "Trust Bonus".
- Hey, Taiko team, I fixed it.
- **Taiko Team is literally a bunch of scammers.**
- "for fun" my ass
- Taiko airdrop is the worst airdrop in the history of airdrops. 3000+ points, KYC, Testnet txs - not eligible. I think all KYCed users should have got at least some base reward, otherwise what was the point? I'm done with "free cost" testnets. Meanwile, you can send Galxe token GAL to zero as well.
- Okay, 70% of my wallets aren't eligible (I guess that's because they have zero balance and zero txs). Only the ones I'm using for Backpack are eligible. Lesson here. Time to up my Solana game.
- That being said I plan to continue farming HLG Round 2 Airdrop.
Why?
โ
Because the team has already shown the intolerance to sybils which I like.
โ
The allocation for Round 2 is the same as it is for Round 1 (5%) but the competion will be MUCH smaller.
โThe only drawback is 6 month vesting for Round 2 airdrop.
- Every time I check my portfolio the number is smaller and smaller and I have 0 dry powder to average down. Today my mind is in particularly dark place. Should have just bought BTC/ETH and forget about it. Fuck altcoins.
- Okay I checked my friends wallets who have only ONE wallet and all of them got reported for sybiling. Yeah, their tried to game the airdrop but they did so with one wallet only, THEY ARE NOT SYBILS! You can be a real Layer Zero user and still farm it a little bit, because why not?
- ooops, another my SINGLE wallet got reported. I bet by the end of the campaign all the wallets will be reported lol.
- ahahahah, some motherfucker reported my single wallet ๐
I'm not worried as the activity there is as organic as it gets. Looks like the dude just sends random addresses in hope the team won't bother itself verifying them, which is pretty naive.
- 60% sold at listing. 20% will sell higher. 20% staked for one month. Spent the least money on this one (just a bunch of sim-cards for $ 5 each) and the least time - made the most money in absolute numbers and % wise. TON ecosystem really puts Ethereum and Solana ecosystem airdrops to shame.
