After 8 years in crypto I've learned one big thing:
The longer you have to wait for an airdrop, the more it disappoints
Because you have been waiting for so long for that delayed stimmy, your anticipations go up.
But in the end, you always get much much lower than you expected.
Why? More people are eligible, the project raised more rounds and your 'share' is diluted, or the project completely mistimed the TGE.
This happened with Berachain and Monad more recently.
And it will happen with Opensea , Metamask , Base and Hyperliquid (2).
It's the unexpected ones that make you a lot of money. Think Uniswap , Celestia , hyperliquid round 1 etc etc.
So don't get your hopes up, focus on the unexpected ones and pray to Bitcoin Jesus for free moneys.
