A few years ago, I started participating in airdrops. At that time, I lost quite a bit trading cryptocurrencies, and only after hitting rock bottom did I discover the world of airdrops. Back then, KOLs on Twitter would boast about getting rich every few days, claiming to have made 3 million RMB from OP and Arbitrum, building up points with Blur NFTs, receiving airdrops worth 200,000 USD, and even discovering a cross-chain bug in Layerzero that allowed them to profit from price differences and block rewards, earning 30,000 USD daily without even waiting for airdrops. ✅ At that time, watching others make money every day made me very anxious. My friend Dahuai shared two stories with me, and today I want to share them with you. 🔹 A brother from the exchange shared some real data with me: these so-called KOLs didn't actually make that much money. Their accounts don't even qualify for VIP status (the threshold is 100,000 USD in assets). Many of these guys are just manipulating images for traffic, ultimately profiting by cutting down on retail investors. Don't trust these scammers; focus on your own airdrop efforts! 🔸 There's an old saying in China: Don't compare yourself to others, only compare yourself to yourself. How much others earn has nothing to do with you. You should compare yourself to your past self and see if you're better than you were last year; that's what truly matters! I will always remember this idea of comparing myself to myself. I'm very grateful that when I first entered this space, I met a group of warm friends. We researched projects together every day, delving deep into analysis. Although many of our conclusions turned out to be wrong in hindsight, it was all part of our growth and the journey we took. I wish everyone progress every day. Yesterday, I saw a bamboo growth video posted by @megaeth_labs, which inspired me to share this. Let's encourage each other and keep going!
