Preface
After Scroll released the airdrop and launched the $SCR token in the first two weeks, the airdrop situation was indeed not ideal. The interaction cost of the author's 10 accounts was 700 US dollars, and he only received an airdrop reward of about 1,300 US dollars. It took about a year and dozens of Hours of interaction time, this kind of income situation is "worse than working part-time"!
It is a great blessing to have profits from the airdrop settlement. Recently, Kroma and Puffer have all ended up with anti-lu. Most of them are projects that have not issued coins for a long time. In such a difficult environment, the LuMao track has gradually been abandoned. You can We have seen that the update frequency of airdrop-type KOLs has decreased, and the discussion of airdrops in the community has dropped significantly. So is it still recommended to participate in Lumao Circuit? Where should the Lumao Party go from here? The author will share the projects he is currently focusing on and his personal approach to coping in this environment.
Airdrops are not dead: key projects
Although it is difficult to find get-rich-quick projects on the current airdrop track, and the market hot spots are concentrated on meme coins, the author believes that the airdrop track will not completely decline. You might as well choose suitable potential projects to ambush when the airdrop mood is low, and take advantage of the trend. When the time comes, you can have an advantage over others. The following are several key projects recommended by the author. The interaction methods have been introduced in previous weekly reports.

Develop multiple skills: Hexagon Warrior
The author himself is facing today's bear market and is more familiar with various on-chain operations to deal with it. "There are many market opportunities, don't limit yourself." Try it without prejudice, there is no distinction between high and low in making money. Whether it is the previous inscription, rune or TON ecology, there are many opportunities to make money. For opportunities to find Alpha on the chain, you can refer to this weekly report, and the author is currently mainly involved in The following three ways to play.
Chong each chain Memecoin
In addition to the traditional meme tracks of Solana, ETH and Base, recent months have included token operation opportunities on TRX, BSC and Sui. From the zoo led by $Mooden a while ago to $GOAT and $Luna, which are minimally integrated with AI, there are many event-based and news trading opportunities every day. By analyzing the currency holdings of smart money and large investors, the winning rate can be improved.
However, due to the high popularity and serious competition of Meme, it requires higher concentration and long-term monitoring than in the secondary market. It is a more difficult method among the three but has the highest critical hit rate.
Memecoin
Hot Alpha Project Mint
Finding hot spots on the chain is a rare opportunity. Recently, it includes the Ethereum chain’s Big Goose, ETH69, Frog, etc. It is similar to the gameplay of inscription casting, using low-cost Freemint or interactive projects. As the market sentiment opens, it often Can obtain several times profit, the cost will be determined according to Gasfee.
To find Alpha on this type of chain in the early stage, in addition to listening to other people's orders, you can use the GasNow tool to query the activity on the chain, and then use GeniiDATA to see what projects everyone is involved in. This is especially suitable for Ethereum and Bitcoin chains. .

KRC inscription
KRC20 is a new gameplay officially launched in mid-September. Players can recharge $KAS to the KSPR Telegram Bot to cast KRC inscriptions and place orders on the Bot.
Since their launch, inscription tokens such as Nacho, KDAO and KOON have increased several times after the minting is completed, and these mintings can be sold while being minted, achieving capital-preserving arbitrage without time differences. As KRC becomes more and more popular, some exchanges have also launched trading of KRC inscription tokens. The author believes that KRC is still an early market, and there are many early bonuses suitable for joining early!
CSPR Bot
Conclusion: The airdrop track is weakening and cultivating diverse skills
The airdrop track is currently weak, but it does not mean that there are no opportunities to participate, but that we need to be more selective and not blindly participate, and look for the next big thing in the project when we are depressed. And step out of the comfort zone, pursue hot spots and trends without prejudice, and cultivate the ability of long-term triviality and short-term speculation in a diversified way. There is no shortage of opportunities in the currency circle, but I am afraid that I will not be able to seize the opportunity when it comes!
