Airdrops are free if players or users have to bear transaction fees then it is a ponzi scheme where there is no certainty of the return of capital from transaction fees. If you have to pay, if that happens then it means buying or pre-market.

Saying Airdrop is Ponzi or Scam is different type, but the adverse impact on players or users is very large. Where in essence both are exposed to project fraud modeling.

So the main problem is the self-control of users on the issue of the existence of Airdrop that will be followed, where the need to study or do research is better. Meanwhile, for developers, the awareness of the procurement of a project with Airdrop offers is not just to study adoption, trends or viral. But preparing projects that are made according to ongoing conditions and markets, plus realizing the existence of their projects on what network they use. So that it can overcome the problem of transaction fees and fraud from users later.

Listing or not listing, dropping or not dropping does clearly define what a Scam project is. But even if the project is finally running and has a market at least the market price adjustment at the beginning of the release has been carefully thought out. So as to avoid ridicule and bad views that do not match reality.

The media is indeed a strong weapon for marketing strategies, and in the end it can be seen which ones can be said to be one-sided, exaggerating or just looking for profit. Be smart in judging something, be it in the form of a project, developer, influenser, or news that is present. Irregular freedom ultimately requires deep scrutiny.
