Is $LIT setting the bar too high for future perp airdrops? There's growing chatter about whether we've already seen the peak of legitimately rewarding perpetual contract airdrops. The market's been flooded with countless airdrop campaigns lately, but few actually deliver meaningful value to early participants. LIT made waves with its distribution model—structured, transparent, and genuinely beneficial for active traders. The question haunting the community: can we realistically expect similar quality drops going forward, or are we entering an era of diluted, underwhelming airdrops? Some traders believe $LIT represents the last of the 'golden age' airdrops before market saturation kicks in. Others argue better mechanisms will emerge. Either way, it's forcing the industry to rethink what makes an airdrop worth waiting for.

LIT this wave is indeed amazing, but honestly there are better things coming later, it all depends on who can truly master the perp aspect. --- To be honest, the current airdrops are getting more and more superficial. The hype around the LIT model is a bit excessive. --- No way, is it really the beginning of the trash airdrop era? --- The golden age already feels like it's over. Now it's just new tricks to cut leeks. --- LIT just looks transparent, but those mechanisms that will be optimized later will be even more powerful. Don't be too pessimistic. --- I just want to know when the next LIT-level project will come. I'm a bit tired of waiting. --- Early participants are the ones who make the most money. Now those entering for airdrops are just here to get paid. --- Instead of worrying about how high the value is, it's better to think about how to identify genuine projects. That's the real skill.

Smiling and losing this round, $LIT might have just buried a trap for later entrants. Now all projects have to compare themselves to this benchmark, and none of them are doing well. LIT's move this time is truly brilliant. Now other airdrops are getting criticized. I just want to ask—are they setting a flag or creating industry poison? Damn, another "last airdrop of the golden era." The last time I heard this phrase was on the eve of Luna's collapse. Honestly, LIT's transparency is really impressive, but don't tell me about "quality decline"—it's mainly because there are too many rookies, and projects don't have that much real gold to spend. A saturation of airdrops is normal. I'm just worried that later projects might learn bad habits from LIT's tricks without focusing on real substance.

Lit really packs a punch this time, no wonder everyone is saying there's no comparison for what's coming next. --- Honestly, the golden age is over, and now airdrops are basically just a way to cut the leeks. --- Wait, is this implying that future airdrops will all be terrible? I need to reevaluate my strategy. --- Lit is that kind of presence that you love and hate at the same time... transparency is good, but it also raises expectations too high. --- I don't quite agree. I think it's just the beginning; the team just needs to be more dedicated. --- Alright, now I have to ask before considering any airdrop: "Is this going to be the next lit?" --- Market saturation is real, but saying the golden age is over? That's too early. --- Hey, quick question—could the success of lit itself be a trap, making people tolerate worse airdrops even less? --- If I had known earlier, I would have hoarded more lit. Now I regret it to death. --- It seems most projects just can't learn from lit's approach; the mechanism complexity just gets stuck.

Looking at LIT's recent moves, I really can't hold back anymore... The previous reckless airdrops have now become trash, is LIT really the ceiling? --- Wait, how come I didn't copy the transparency and mechanism of LIT thoroughly? Now I'm regretting it to death. --- Damn, another "golden age," I don't believe you, the next one will definitely be even more intense. --- On-chain data shows... Forget it, I’m just relying on luck, don’t think too much. --- So the group that preemptively laid low really hit the jackpot, I’ve hit the top again, right? --- The market is like this, either get rich quick from airdrops or suffer heavy losses and exit, there’s no middle ground. --- LIT definitely outperforms 99% of garbage coin airdrops, but I will still continue to FOMO into the next one.

The recent airdrop for LIT was truly amazing, but honestly, it's likely to underperform later on. Let's just call it the final frenzy—those who got in early are making a killing. Airdrops are becoming more and more diluted; unless new mechanisms emerge, it's hard to have this kind of experience again. Wait, could it be that the team has really learned their lesson and the next wave will be even more aggressive... It's better to call it a reshuffle; in less nice terms, it's time for the chives to wake up. LIT's transparency definitely boosted confidence; achieving this level in today's market is already quite rare. Future airdrops probably won't all fail, but the chances of encountering a project with the quality of LIT... oh my. Airdrop engineers need to reflect—otherwise, no one will want to play anymore.

This round of LIT definitely outperforms other airdrops, but I don't think it will be this good in the future. Wait, will there be even more aggressive mechanisms later on? Honestly, after this wave of LIT, it's basically all IQ tax. I really can't hold it anymore; compared to other airdrops, LIT has become trash. LIT has raised expectations to the max; now it seems nothing can compare.

I think LIT has indeed raised expectations this time. Now, other airdrops feel less exciting. The upcoming projects are either copying LIT or are completely abandoned, with nothing good in between. Is LIT the last frenzy? It feels like the era of airdrops is really coming to an end. Rather than waiting for airdrops, it's more practical to become a trader yourself. Are there any good airdrops after this cycle? I'm not very optimistic. After LIT, looking at these others, they all seem pretty ordinary.
