Airdrop ROI spans a very wide range and depends on project quality, timing, and market conditions. Some high-profile retroactive airdrops delivered outsized returns (multiple-100x in rare cases), while many smaller drops yield negligible or negative returns after fees and immediate sell pressure. Short-term ROI is often dominated by speculation and liquidity; tokens with deep markets and tangible utility tend to hold value better. Account for claim gas, opportunity cost, and potential vesting locks when estimating net ROI. A sensible expectation is to treat most airdrops as asymmetric optionality: low-cost participation with occasional high-payoff outcomes, rather than a predictable income stream.
