In today’s Roundtable 006 episode Jason and Sanat discuss all things Airdrops. They start by reviewing the history of Airdrops, among the most successful releases, before diving deep on trying to objectively evaluate Airdrops and their utility; are they a good way for retail investors to make money, for founders to grow their projects and whether or not it’s financially sound strategy and business decision. Jason and Sanat dive deep on the data, reviewing on-chain activity and historic examples — this is not one to miss, enjoy
