The era of spray and pray airdrop farming is winding down. Gone are the days when you could mindlessly chase every token drop and rake in quick gains. What once worked as a low-effort strategy has become saturated, with diminishing returns plaguing casual farmers. The math no longer adds up—gas fees, time investment, and wallet complexity eat into profits while most new airdrops barely move the needle. Serious participants are shifting tactics: selective farming on high-potential projects, deeper protocol participation, and quality over quantity. The market's matured. Those still grinding the same playbook from three years ago are basically fighting yesterday's battle.
