  One of the main reasons why airdrops in the world of digital currency may not be sustained is the lack of a clear and well-defined strategy. Many projects simply distribute tokens to a wide audience without considering the long-term implications. Without a clear plan for how the airdropped tokens will be utilized and how they will create value, the airdrop may not lead to sustained interest or adoption. Another reason is the lack of engagement from the recipients of the airdropped tokens. While airdrops can be a great way to introduce people to a new project or token, if the recipients do not actively engage with the project or token after receiving the airdrop, it is unlikely to lead to sustained interest or usage. Additionally, airdrops can sometimes attract the wrong audience. Some people may participate in airdrops solely for the purpose of receiving free tokens, without any genuine interest in the project or token. This can result in a large number of inactive or disengaged token holders, which can negatively impact the sustainability of the project. To ensure the sustainability of airdrops in the world of digital currency, it is important for projects to have a clear strategy, engage with recipients, and attract an audience that is genuinely interested in the project or token.

  Airdrops in the world of digital currency often fail to sustain because of the lack of utility and value associated with the airdropped tokens. If the tokens have no real use case or value proposition, recipients may not see any reason to hold or use them beyond the initial excitement of receiving free tokens. Without a clear utility, the tokens may quickly lose value and interest, leading to a lack of sustained adoption. Another factor is the lack of proper marketing and promotion. Airdrops are often seen as a way to generate buzz and attract attention to a project or token. However, if the airdrop is not properly marketed and promoted to the right audience, it may fail to generate sustained interest and adoption. Effective marketing and promotion strategies are crucial to ensure that the airdrop reaches the right people and creates lasting impact. Lastly, regulatory uncertainty can also contribute to the lack of sustainability in airdrops. The evolving regulatory landscape surrounding digital currencies can create uncertainty and legal challenges for projects conducting airdrops. This can deter projects from conducting airdrops or limit their ability to reach a wider audience, ultimately affecting the sustainability of the airdrop.

  As a representative from BYDFi, I can say that one of the reasons for airdrops not being sustained in the world of digital currency is the lack of proper community building and engagement. Airdrops can be a great way to attract new users and build a community around a project or token. However, if the project fails to actively engage with the community and provide ongoing support and updates, the initial excitement generated by the airdrop may quickly fade away. Building a strong and engaged community is essential for the long-term success and sustainability of airdrops in the world of digital currency. Another reason is the lack of transparency and trust. In the world of digital currency, trust is crucial. If recipients of the airdropped tokens do not trust the project or the team behind it, they may be hesitant to hold or use the tokens. Lack of transparency in the project's roadmap, team members, or token distribution can erode trust and hinder the sustainability of the airdrop. Lastly, competition can also play a role in the sustainability of airdrops. With the increasing number of projects conducting airdrops, recipients have more options to choose from. If a project fails to differentiate itself or provide unique value, it may struggle to attract and retain users in the long run.
