My 2c on Airdrop-Selling drama: + I worked with Merkle on an Airdrop. They didn't impose their criteria on us, they helped us to set *our* critieria. + Therefore, I think many people are mistakingly taking Dan's comment as a threat "from Dan" when, in fact, it is his observation of what Airdrop Teams will decide for their self-interest. + And I'd say Dan's point is directionally correct – giving airdrops that seem likely to be insta-sold is less appealing to Teams than the opposite. + However, selling does *not* have to overwhelm all other criteria. Eg, if someone is a power-user of many apps and tokens like @tricil.eth, this may be more important to a Team than whether he sold a drop or not. tldr: Dan's point clearly has merit, but Airdrop Criteria is a unique decision made by each Team (not by Merkle!)

Fair and based take. One bit of clarification here that I don’t expect these from Merkle I’m just worried about the practice becoming an unfair default. Nuance in that.

Definitely. My guess is that most teams will want to get pretty "hands on" when essentially giving away thousands of dollars, and that @linda was super active about helping us choose intelligently (imo Merkle is super aligned on wanting us to have a great experience giving tokens away, and converting drop to usage)

I've never seen this criteria before, I'll be surprised if i see it again.
