Skepticism and Innovations in Crypto Airdrops
This chapter explores skepticism around airdrops that involve extra payments, equating them to token sales rather than free distributions. The speakers discuss the implications of Tether's blacklisting actions and the risks posed by the concentration of staking on the Prism client in Ethereum. Additionally, they highlight exciting developments in Layer 2 solutions and the implications of NFT functionality integration into social media platforms.
