We can always improve the airdrops and something we're working on but also can't make everyone happy giving out tokens with a set budget (usually $10K). I do feel happy though in 2 months there's been ~$140K distributed to 10K+ Farcaster users with $125K+ lined up and positive feedback from teams we've worked with

Developer ecosystem @farcaster, co-founder @bountycaster. Previously: co-founder of Scalar Capital, product at Coinbase, co-producer @ethereumfilm

So one part that confuses me is the budget thing, that kind of implies pre existing token that have already been trading, right? Could we instead push teams to instead use airdrops as their TGE? That would basically be at no cost to them more or less, especially if a claim, and would also allow for better price discovery tbh

These are all existing tokens so far. I'm totally open to major teams doing it as part of their TGE but where do you draw the line and filter for high quality airdrops that want to do a distribution before the token has been created? What if the tokens end up being worthless off the bat? Flip side of users unhappy they are receiving something not valuable or getting a lineup of random tokens they've never heard of. It's all a tough balance

Yeah whether token is worthless off the bat or not is unfortunately up to the team launching the token as people have to want it lmao
