#加密货币空投趋势 This news is really alarming. Is ICO making a comeback? Thinking back to those projects that cut the leeks in the past, weren't they all claiming to be ICOs? Now they say they want to replace airdrops, but I bet it's more of the same old tricks in a new bottle. Although airdrops aren't exactly good things, at least you don't have to pay, whereas ICOs require real money.

But upon closer reflection, this shift isn't entirely unreasonable. Airdrops have indeed fostered a habit among many people of "taking advantage and then acting innocent," selling immediately after receiving, showing little loyalty to the project. In comparison, ICOs at least require spending money, so people might value them more. The key still depends on how the project team designs it; if they stick to the old routine of insiders scooping up the benefits first, then it's just the same old story in a different guise for retail investors.

We veteran leeks must keep our eyes open and not be fooled by these tricks of dressing old wine in new bottles. Whether it's ICO or airdrops, the focus should be on the project itself, the team background, and the tokenomics. Don't be blinded by gimmicks like "early bird discounts" or "rare opportunities." Remember, in this circle, there's no such thing as a free lunch, nor a risk-free, guaranteed profit investment. Stay vigilant and do your homework so you can survive longer in this unpredictable market.
