By accumulating 18 minutes daily, approximately 3-4 airdrops can be obtained in a 15-day cycle (conservatively estimated at 3.5). Considering that weekends and weekdays may not always have activity, the average per month is about 1.5 cycles. Each airdrop is valued at 40U, so the monthly income is 3.5×1.5×40=210U. After deducting gas or other costs of 100U, the net profit is roughly 110U. Occasionally, if caught in a squeeze, an additional 100U might be added to the cost.

Honestly, this profit margin is neither too fat nor too thin, just the rhythm that the platform wants. Based on transaction volume data, the current active users are around 230,000 (yesterday’s competition heat data being lower can serve as confirmation), and a silent tacit understanding has already formed between the platform and users.

Currently, there are four awkward aspects of the airdrop projects. First, there is basically no big bonus, with 80U being the ceiling. Second, it doesn’t happen every day; weekends are paused, and weekdays depend on luck. Third, months with poor returns relax standards to retain users. Fourth, when data looks good, a universal benefit mechanism is introduced to level the playing field.

As an ordinary participant, I appreciate these small rewards from the platform. This cooperative logic is still clear—at least the process is transparent, rules are open, and there are no sneaky tricks. Compared to some platforms that often secretly retaliate, the differences become apparent through comparison.
