#AirdropSafetyGuide
Airdrops can be goldmines — or landmines. Staying SAFU means staying sharp. Here’s my personal checklist:
Red Flags I Always Watch For:
Airdrop claims that require wallet connection before any info is shown
Projects with no audit or anonymous teams
Contracts asking for unlimited token access
How I Vet Projects:
Look up the smart contract on-chain — does it interact with known protocols or just sit idle?
Dive into the project’s socials — is there real engagement or just fake hype?
Use simulation tools to preview what a contract will do before I approve anything
Scam I Dodged:
Got an airdrop link claiming to be from a “zkSync bonus.” Looked slick, but the site wasn’t on any official channel and the contract had “transferFrom” abuse. Reported and avoided.
Do your own checks, don’t just chase tokens.
