    To play devil’s advocate, while I have little doubts that these specific ones are scammy, there are many cases where they have been genuinely good value. In general, this is when a product requires an established user base in order to be effective , so they’ll have an airdrop shortly after opening and then another a few months into the product’s life. The aim being that if X number of people try it a bit, hopefully a proportion will continue using it and make the whole product viable.

      Crypto has never been a good value. You are just hoping to be on the right side of the pump and dump.

        yeah the original purpose of crypto may have been not that bad but every tool is what people make it to be and at this point crypto is just for stealing poples money
