The complexity of airdrop tasks directly impacts the quality and volume of participants. Simple tasks, like joining social channels, may attract large numbers but include many opportunistic users with little long-term interest. More complex tasks, such as liquidity provision, governance voting, or deploying contracts, reduce participation but improve quality by filtering for committed users. Overly difficult or expensive tasks risk discouraging even genuine supporters, leading to poor adoption. Optimal design balances accessibility and meaningful engagement. For example, tiered tasks that reward both simple and advanced actions can create inclusivity while still incentivizing depth. Evaluating a project’s task design helps determine whether it aims for mass exposure or sustainable user growth. Task complexity is therefore a critical determinant of participation authenticity.
