My 2c on Airdrop-Selling drama:

+ I worked with Merkle on an Airdrop. They didn't impose their criteria on us, they helped us to set *our* critieria.

+ Therefore, I think many people are mistakingly taking Dan's comment as a threat "from Dan" when, in fact, it is his observation of what Airdrop Teams will decide for their self-interest.

+ And I'd say Dan's point is directionally correct – giving airdrops that seem likely to be insta-sold is less appealing to Teams than the opposite.

+ However, selling does *not* have to overwhelm all other criteria. Eg, if someone is a power-user of many apps and tokens like @tricil.eth, this may be more important to a Team than whether he sold a drop or not.

tldr: Dan's point clearly has merit, but Airdrop Criteria is a unique decision made by each Team (not by Merkle!)

Well said 

If your argument is “selling is good for your app actually” you need to convince the developers considering airdrops, not me.

As still the 10k casts are not live yet, so we have a thread:

i was just thinkin today, it’s been like what, a year n half since i joined farcaster?  
i’m honestly one of the early ppl who made their first 1k $ from crypto thx to farcaster. it became what i always wanted from social media.

i had social anxiety and never liked bein on instagram. like—short, shallow, flashy content?  
not into it, not as a viewer, not as a creator.  
twitter? same shit. full of bots, bunch of influencers pushin whatever they agreed on in private discord groups, hypin up everything until their bags are full and then movin to the next thing.  
CT (crypto twitter) is super toxic these days, esp w/ tools like KAITO AI.  
i got dragged into it too, not gonna lie. it’s hard not to, trends are fomo traps.
