One surprising trend I’ve noticed with airdrops is the neglect to consider actual users with on-chain KYC-verified wallets and reward them for supporting the ecosystem. For example, Gnosis Pay has 3,137 verified wallets, Optimism has over 300K wallets verified by Coinbase/OP Citizen, and Binance has more than 800K on-chain verified wallets. Additionally, it's easy to filter wallets connected to a CEX on-chain. Moving forward, projects could also include subsets of users displaying human-like behavior, similar to how ZKSync incorporated Farcaster and Lens https://dune.com/pfedan/gnosispay-stats https://dune.com/robin_y/binance-soulbound-token if the goal is to onboard next million users, should we give them a push by rewarding them rather than bots. Seems to a be an missing opportunity.

KYC goes against the most important values in this space, so personally I'm grateful this hasn't been a thing. Regardless, there's a chance we move in that direction sooner or later. Dystopia: Worldcoin-verified accounts. Utopia: universal attestations where you can share proof of KYC without revealing details.

That is my point. Even if a wallet is KYCed, it does not expose your details, though you need to trust the central entity doing the verification(hack, information leak). It's still self-custodial, and if we are to go fully unbacked, regulation is a good thing. Imagine /aztec everyone is allowed to participate but those with kyced wallet have higher limit. Privacy, not anonymity
