I recently received an Alpha airdrop, and it was a bit disappointing. It took 245 points to get it, and upon opening, it was only worth about $5. This deal is really not very cost-effective.

By the way, what is the project team actually thinking? Using such items for airdrop incentives, can it really attract people? It feels like just consuming users' points. Based on this value ratio, the profit margin for snatching is basically nonexistent, and you even have to spend time interacting and waiting for unlocks.

It seems I need to be more cautious when participating in these kinds of activities in the future. Not all airdrops are worth chasing; sometimes, you're just losing time and energy. How has everyone’s experience been? Have you encountered similar "surprises"?

245 points for 5 yuan, this project team is really awesome, hilarious Grinding for points still costs time, shouldn't they just run away directly? I’m too lazy to even click on these airdrops now, there are too many trash projects Has anyone actually made money from these, or are they all just scams?

245 points for 5 yuan? This deal is amazing, the project team is just squeezing toothpaste. Earning points also requires time, it's really not worth the effort. How can there still be people insisting on participating in such activities? I have completely given up. I've long stopped engaging in these airdrops; they hurt your points too much, brother. The project team really knows how to play; relying on this to retain users? Wake up.

245 points for $5, the project team really think we're fools, it's a huge profit This operation by the project team is truly outrageous, even airdrops feel like just harvesting the little guys I've encountered similar situations before, the joy of farming is just gone No, I will definitely pass on this kind of airdrop in the future, the time cost can't be justified Looks like I need to remember this lesson, not all alpha is worth it

245 points for $5? This deal is definitely a huge loss, what is the project team trying to achieve? Airdrops are becoming more and more exaggerated, I kind of regret participating. Time wasted on mining, this time I’ve learned my lesson. Really, it feels like now all the Alpha is just a tool for consuming points, it's not interesting. After losing once, I’ve learned my lesson. I’ll consider the project team’s sincerity next time.

245 points for $5? The project team must be scamming people. --- Honestly, I stopped participating in these airdrops a long time ago. It's just a waste of time. --- Another broken project that has become a points black hole... --- So this is why everyone is complaining that earning points is becoming less and less worthwhile. --- The project team's operations are really disappointing, no wonder they lack popularity. --- I just want to ask, has anyone truly received a valuable airdrop? --- Wow, 245 points for only $5, that ratio is outrageous. --- The current Alpha is really trash; it's safer to hold mainstream coins. --- If this is how they keep scamming, I won't believe any new project airdrop promises anymore. --- It's clear that the project team hasn't really thought about how to incentivize the community.

245 points for 5 yuan, this project team is really ruthless Gotta say, this is just testing the waters on cutting the leeks Grinding for profits still requires time investment, a loss-making deal After being scammed once, I started to suspect all airdrops are scams Instead of chasing these every day, it's better to look for truly promising projects The project team really treats us as ATMs, indeed

245 points for $5? Is this project team playing around, just pure leek cutting Wait, this isn't even the worst. I've seen more outrageous ones before Gaining points still depends on the cycle. Short-term these airdrops are indeed useless Really, wasting time and points, next time just pass If the project team plays like this, it will eventually fail, users are not fools Me too, I regret participating in this activity crazily, lost to death So now I have to think twice before participating in an airdrop, too many crashes That's why I now only farm airdrops from major projects, forget about small projects 245 points are better saved, this deal is not worth it

245 points for a 5-dollar item, this project team is probably joking with us Grinding for rewards still costs time, it's truly absurd Next time I encounter such an airdrop, I'll just pass, it's not worth it
