Four months ago, Binance Wallet declared the slogan "Become the largest airdrop platform."
Now, this goal seems to be gradually realized, but the way it is achieved is surprising.
Not through task platforms like Galxe, but through the airdrop share brought by the effect of listing coins and liquidity advantages.
This inevitably raises questions about the balance of interests between project parties, community users, and cat-raising studios.
If cracking down on cat-raising studios is a good thing, then Binance indeed has the ability to do this.
From a technical perspective, Binance's ability to counter studios far exceeds that of most project parties.
More critically, Binance can continuously enhance its defensive capabilities through repeated offense and defense drills.
Assuming that facial verification becomes standard in the future, combined with the current requirements for fund retention and interaction Alpha, the survival space for cat-raising studios will be greatly compressed; perhaps only the "village chief" will be able to establish a studio.
However, for ordinary cat-raisers and community users, this may not be good news.
After all, those who truly understand the project and have feelings for it are often these groups.
Of course, if they are also Binance users and can easily obtain additional airdrops, they might feel a bit comforted.
This also leads to project parties facing a dilemma in balancing Binance airdrops and community user airdrops.
From Binance's perspective, the benefits are obvious: it can support Alpha, create another coin listing module; promote Binance Wallet and control the on-chain entry; and support BNB Chain, locking in on-chain liquidity.
From the perspective of ordinary users, easily obtaining "big毛" is naturally pleasing, and in the future, they may no longer have to envy the earnings of cat-raising studios.
But as a community user, I also worry that the projects I participate in building may not bring me the expected returns.
On a larger scale, I also hope that projects yet to have a TGE can "clear out" on Binance Wallet as soon as possible based on their own ecological positioning.
This is not only a debt owed by the Web3 ecosystem, but also a reality that project parties must face in the current environment.
