Mint Podcast

i've been getting questions about my first attempt at a rewards campaign, so i wanted to address them publicly:

q: in an era of phishing attempts, why make users connect their wallet to claim a reward instead of airdropping it directly to their wallet?**

my answer is pretty simple:

1. i want people to become familiar with my leaderboard as a trusted place to view their ranks.

2. if i airdrop the reward, there's a good chance you might not even notice it in your wallet. claiming it requires active participation, ensuring you're engaged rather than passive.

im hoping to build your trust as my XP and rewards program evolves.

definitely better than a straight airdrop

i agree, i prefer activations that are active vs. passive. even when ppl claim their $OP airdrops, etc, it requires active participation. 

$uni-style airdrop days are a bit behind us.
