Agree with @toly

~$5-10 airdrops don’t incentivize people who want to use apps with a utility token, they incentivize farmers who dilute the quality of discourse in the network

The degradation to content quality is not worth the DAU bump imo (empty calories)

First Solana token airdrop to @farcaster_xyz users (using zk compression!). We've got 4 more Solana token airdrops lined up totaling $80k. DM me if you're interested in running an airdrop

While it’s awesome to see solana infra used, I think airdrops for growth model isn’t what socialFI should be. You end up with a bunch of airdrop farmers at best, and bots on average.  

Imho, figure out a way to surface DAO asset management into groups and social and charge bips

My counter perspective: any airdrop will be farmed - it’s much harder to farm on SocialFi given its hard for bots to get engagement.

No that’s aligned with my take

I like the idea of FC as airdrop plumbing, but that’s still a race to the bottom at odds with content quality and long term user base

There is not really a data point that there is a lower content quality on Farcaster and Airdrops have always been a thing here.
