The discussion around BOOP airdrops is quite lively, let me briefly share my observations:
1. The claiming process is indeed a bit unpleasant, requiring staking and also incurring fees. This gameplay has a higher threshold compared to other meme coins. The previously seen 1000BOOP=444U algorithm, when calculated, shows that 100 followers are worth 1U, and this yield is quite touching...
2. The token economic model is designed quite elaborately, with staking rewards + fee sharing. On the surface, it seems like a win-win, but upon closer inspection, the project team's calculations are quite clever. Users have to lock their assets before claiming, and even after claiming, they still have to worry about the coin price, making them vulnerable on both ends.
3. Compared to other meme coins, BOOP's innovation lies in turning airdrops into a "paid claiming" model. Currently, the market reaction is polarized: skeptics think it is a disguised ICO, while supporters believe this model can filter out genuine users.
Personal opinion: This design can create a FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) sentiment in the short term, but in the long term, it depends on the project team's subsequent operational capabilities. With the current state of meme coins on Solana, it is difficult to sustain solely through innovative airdrop strategies. I suggest participating cautiously and not to be misled by the promotion of "free claiming"; the actual cost may be much higher than expected...
