bad-takes

Seeing projects do distributions to people who hold certain NFTs instead of using the deep, rich user data available from social interactions is pain

@woj.eth wdyt about this

i am biased that as a holder of the "certain NFTs" in question i do enjoy these mechanisms. but it would be cool to use the graph in more novel ways to create allowlists

1/ 
thinking from first principles (chopping block pod with dan was actually spot on about it)

when you do an airdrop you either want to:
1. decentralize your network and reward first users
2. create net buyers of your token

1) is not usually a case for new social projects

2/

for 2) you want to find people who will both not sell and promote the project to others

so for 2) ideal combination is both

via proof of diamon hands you can assign a P(wont sell) and via history of posting, interests and the social graph you can asses P(will promote)

Love this breakdown and 100% agree. Being hyper intentional about allowlists is really important especially in crypto where it’s full of more mercenary types. Anything you can do to incentivize and signal to a more passionate base the better. Those are the ones more aligned to the long term success of the project.
