let's say your friend had a community airdrop claim ready to go live tomorrow... but it's a big US holiday where everyone west of the Atlantic and south of the 49th parallel will be outside touching fireworks and BBQ... would you tell your friend to wait until monday or just ship it?

I'm sure you already have the answer, do what seems best to you

You right! We’re waiting.

Wait, timing really matters for these things

this was an interesting ad hoc poll. the consensus was basically this:

other builders: “definitely wait until next week”

everyone else: “gib airdrop now” lol 

so we’ve decided to swim with the current and schedule the airdrop for next tuesday (will also give our community something to do on a non-spin day this way!)

thanks everyone for the feedback, and never stop spinning 🫡

would say tmrw (and any major holiday really) would be extremely unpredictable in terms of activity/attention and not be an ideal launch date 

there's always the argument it's a good reward for folks around, but also think that's optimizing for a less than ideal outcome too

appreciate your opinion greatly. You think tomorrow will just be too dead here?

Where do you think the hardcore crypto bums are gonna be and what they gonna be doing, even at a bbq?

I was with $BETR Fam even on a volcano. No excuses 🫶

It is not the best day for it... but what a day for people to cash in free money

Is my friend Canadian?

I’d say fuck it we ball

You could be the reason Farcaster is fun on holidays!

Shipping Friday for the win!

Ship it , people can claim when they find out

The wait side seems a little more obvious. 

But some of the pros of launching now would be that other projects are holding back so this might stand out. Also, it gives the devs a moment to tinker if needed, and most people do have downtime to scroll unless they are actually hosting the party.  

People that are at parties and only have moments to scroll will feel FOMO

Its best to wait till after the holiday so people may be available, Airdrop is a marketing tool. Attention is the tool Airdropping when everyone is available will generate huge attention ❣️

wait and tell monday and launch tuesday. best option. tuesdays are for launches anyways (:

Nothing beats getting airdrop while you are with your family and friends
