@monad's ICO got people thinking… for the community or for the bag? After the @megaeth ICO, @monad ICO is next most anticipated one including me. This new airdrop "meta" excites me because it actually rewards real contributors who believed early and stayed long-term. Take #MegaETH, for example. The team didn't hand out "free" #airdrops — they gave true contributors a chance to join the #ICO. Early supporters, mods, and community members who showed up from day one, helped shape the culture, and stayed through the bear market were handpicked for allocations. And they were serious about it. One clear case was @icobeast, who publicly tried to hedge and resell his allocation despite the rule banning resale or #OTC deals. His reward, worth around $800K, was revoked. A harsh lesson, but it proved #MegaETH valued commitment over profit-chasing. I still remember when airdrops were easy. Back in 2019–2021, you could claim an #NFT and have $1K in $APT tokens. It worked for a while, but projects didn't really know how to separate real contributors from farmers. In the end, people who only cared about farming often earned more than those who actually helped build — and it never felt fair. That's the real takeaway: value the ones who bring real value back Then #Monad just made the community confused when announced the #Monad public sale. Only 3% of tokens are going to users, while nearly 50% go to the team and investors. After two years of community effort, it's easy to see why people feel mixed. And community trust dropped even further earlier today, after reports that @aPriori, one of #Monad's key projects, allegedly farmed 60% of the airdrop using 14,000 wallets, with all the tokens ending up in a single wallet and bad-timing since it's close to Monad ICO. Still, I want to believe the team knows what they're doing. They can't deny that community belief is what made Monad's pre-launch momentum so strong in the first place. Stay vigilant guys.
