Really encouraging to see the FC team take token distributions so seriously these days. The more FC becomes a place to earn tokens in new apps and projects, the more it will attract new users. Most people here have a long history of airdrops and an explicit expectation of what feels meaningfully. When airdrops started in 2019 during DeFi Summer they were quite literally life changing. The amount you earned from using onchain apps was extremely lucrative and become the bedrock for the "airdrop farming" culture we have today. Today the average $$ received has and will continue to go down - and with it the "magic" feeling of an airdrop (or the potential of what it could be) has somewhat gone away too. All that being said - I think it's important to give a new new cohort of users their first "magic" airdrop experience, and focus more on giving them amounts that feel meaningful vs people like myself who are extremely entitled and have unrealistic expectations of airdrops in the first place.

Not sure it can really attract new users as airdrops are only given to the top accounts. Most newcomers will probably never receive one

I think this is the exact problem to solve. Focus on giving the airdrops to newcomers so the narrative is clear that as someone new to crypto - you come to Farcaster to earn your first airdrop.

Yeah difficult problem to solve. If they drop to more people, it decreases value even more. If they just target newcomers, it will be farmed and not much data to distinguish genuine users

I think the developers will change the distribution mechanics and will reward only their loyal users of mini applications. On-chain Active days contribution to mini applications Social interaction.
