A concerning trend has emerged in the airdrop ecosystem where Kaito bots, Binance Alpha participants, and marketing influencers are systematically capturing the majority of project rewards.​

These actors are leveraging automated systems and large-scale coordination to drain value from legitimate users who genuinely test projects and contribute to communities.​

Key issues identified:

  • Marketing influencers promoting without testing
  • Automated bots farming rewards
  • Coordinated whale groups monopolizing allocations

TokenHunters has published an investigative report on these practices at tokenhunters.​xyz

The community is urged to review the findings and share their experiences to help combat these exploitative practices.​
