Looking at the future of blockchain from Alpha airdrops: it's time to upgrade your strategy.
Today's two Alpha airdrop data made me realize a profound truth: those who can truly navigate on-chain have long stopped 'brushing points.'
The two airdrops you see, one has a threshold of 70 points, with a total of 200,000 pieces; the other only has 7,500 pieces, which were gone in an instant. Based on this data, the number of truly active and efficiently executing users in the Alpha ecosystem is probably only 100,000 to 150,000, far below what many prediction platforms refer to as 'brushing users.' What does this imply?
A lot of 'brushing' data actually has no real significance. Many people are still desperately trying to accumulate points and interaction counts, but can this 'brushing' method really bring the maximum on-chain benefits?
This made me start thinking about a deeper question: In today's world of information overload and scarce attention, shouldn't we shift from mere 'physical farming' to more savvy 'strategic participation'?
From farming airdrops to strategic investments—Insights from Injective
This is exactly what I learned from@Injective the ecosystem.
Injective is not building a farm for you to repeatedly click, sign, and earn points, but a 'Lego kingdom' where you can build institutional-level financial applications on zero gas fees and high-performance financial infrastructure. Its core advantage lies not only in technology but also in the provision of composable, cross-chain financial tools that truly enable you to strategize on-chain.
The secret of deep players: low-profile yet efficient market operations
While most people are still scrambling for 7500 airdrops, what are the deep players of Injective doing?
They might be using native oracles and derivatives for precise market hedging. For instance, when you are bearish on an Alpha but still wish to participate in interactions, you can open a small position hedging contract through Injective to transfer the potential risks brought by 'farming'.
They will use DEXs like Helix to perform zero-slippage asset conversions, immediately exchanging the tokens obtained from interactions for stablecoins or mainstream assets, reducing the risk of total loss and avoiding fund fragmentation.
They are still participating in the staking and governance of INJ, earning stable staking returns while potentially gaining airdrops from ecological projects. This method of earning is more stable and certain, with the underlying value being the growth of the entire Injective ecosystem, rather than the short-term incentives of individual projects.
Change the way you participate, build long-term returns
Injective does not encourage ineffective interactions, but rewards those who can design and execute complex strategies using powerful infrastructure (order books, derivatives, cross-chain bridges, etc.).
So, back to the original question: Are you still competing for a few Alpha airdrops by clicking fast?
My answer is: you can participate, but you must upgrade your strategy. Shift some of your energy and funds from mere 'farming' to 'constructive participation' in high-value ecosystems like Injective.
In the Injective ecosystem, every interaction—whether it's trading, providing liquidity, or building strategies—directly contributes to a vast network aimed at reshaping the global financial system. The value capture of INJ stems from this.
Conclusion: Instead of 'missing out', it's better to participate deeply
Rather than competing for 7500 airdrops among 100,000 people, it’s better to take an early position as a deep participant on a public chain that represents the future of finance. The long-term returns from such participation far exceed the short-term thrill of 'missing out'.
The true value of INJ and Injective lies far beyond the technology itself. It filters and empowers a new generation of blockchain users who are no longer satisfied with 'farming'; they truly realize that strategic participation is the future of the on-chain world.
This is the signal behind today's airdrop data that we should deeply understand.
