Seeing the Ubisoft incident, I started thinking about a question: the logic behind token airdrops and TGE is actually the same, both involving liquidity and expectation management. The hacker distributing $13.3 million worth of R6 tokens indiscriminately seems like a security incident on the surface, but in essence reflects an interesting phenomenon—how the market reacts when supply suddenly surges.

This made me think of a key decision point when copying trades: how to respond to sudden token unlocks or large airdrop events. Some traders significantly adjust their positions before and after TGE, and blindly copying during this time can easily lead to pitfalls. My strategy is this—first observe the historical performance of the target trader in similar events, see whether they are positioning in advance or adjusting positions on the fly. If they have a conservative style, they usually reduce positions beforehand to avoid risk; aggressive traders might do the opposite to profit from volatility.

Ubisoft’s rollback handling actually provides an insight: sudden negative news doesn’t necessarily mean an immediate loss on holdings; it depends on how you respond. Copy trading follows this logic too—not blindly buying or selling, but understanding the emergency plans traders have when facing black swan events. Next time I see a large airdrop or TGE about to happen, I will pay special attention to those experts who have maintained stable returns during historical volatility and see how they handle it.
