seems like a very successful TGE so far for a new solana launchpad

probably will be some runners coming out of here today for those that care

lesson here for builders: 

if there's free money involved, it doesn't matter if it's a KOL/trader with millions (who BOOP's airdrop was for) or an airdrop farmer from SE Asia

people will find every possible way to game your incentive system without returning value to your product

I think the only problem with a surprise airdrop is that it doesn't really achieve the purpose of attracting engaged users, just speculators

Does this mean incentive programs should be scrapped out entirely?

I think a valid model is don't announce the airdrop and just take users by surprise. Once the farming process is announced, you attract opportunists.
