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?

Airdrops are a feature uniquely enabled by crypto 

Just because they’ve often been poorly designed doesn’t mean they don’t or can’t work 

Agree that one click frames aren’t well designed airdrops for anything trying to sustainably reward users but they could be good for GTM strategies

That’s a fair point but I think we’re still seeing airdrop design develop.

Are mints really any different than an airdrop that you have to claim or an airdrop for active participants?

with all due respect, “just because they’ve often been poorly designed doesn’t mean they don’t work” is an excuse we have been using for so many years that i don’t buy it anymore.

mints aren’t as bad as airdrops, but the ease of mint now is 🤯.

FarCats you had to buy. FC OG NFT you had to be active.
