negativity towards "airdrop farmers" is misplaced and biased.

hundreds of thousands (millions?) of people all over the world have decided that doing microwork for protocols is their best path to economic prosperity. that is incredible and should be celebrated. 

it's on us to enable them to contribute positively.

micro work for economic prosperity should absolutely not be celebrated, honestly can't believe this is being said seriously

I do think things like Hivemapper are somewhere in the middle though. DePIN as prefigurative of even more democratic networks

In the grand scheme of things this kind of micro work seems more harmless than the gig economy, but yeah we should not be looking at airdrop farming as some kind of liberatory new economy

What do you mean exactly? That these people shouldn’t have received an airdrop? Depending where you’re from airdrops can be financially life changing for some people
