X post from @beandip, who may know more about airdrops than anyone else in the space.

change my mind:

current one-click mint frames are just airdrops, not value drivers.

their distribution is just another flavor of TVL, not LTV.

and if airdrops don’t “work”, why should we expect one-click mint frames to?

One-click mints and airdrops are just mechanisms.
They are easy, so they've been used in a very lazy and ineffective way.
Doesn't mean that they can't be good mechanisms if used correctly.
Their ease unfortunately adds more noise and less signal. Adding good friction helps boost signal. Algos then can reduce noise.
