They discuss the history of airdrops and how we have ended up with the current saturated trend of onchain point systems as a strategic alternative to immediate token launches by airdropping tokens. They discuss the pros and cons of using points systems and how to position them to be successful for the project by gaining valuable customer feedback and generating fees while they find PMF. The conversation also touches on the latest point system progression of trading and speculating on the value of the points before the teased airdrop occurs via various p2p platforms and futures contracts. If you are someone who is trying to wrap your head around the current points meta, or just want to hear a balanced conversation covering all aspects this episode is a must listen.
