Airdrop grabbers, your first profits are usually lost in these few traps: jumping into derivatives contracts all at once, betting on altcoins and crashing, having your wallet hacked and going back to square one overnight. Have you fallen for any of these? Which trap is the deepest?

Getting my wallet stolen was devastating; my friend was lost entirely. That's why I'm currently only doing small test transactions.

The wallet was hacked, and I was completely stunned. The airdrop I worked hard for was gone overnight.

The biggest scam with wallet theft is the most outrageous. I just earned a few hundred USDT and lost it all in one night. Now I don't even dare to interact with unfamiliar contracts.

The wallet theft really broke my mindset. I went from a few thousand dollars to just double digits in one night. Now I have a shadow over contracts.

That time my wallet was hacked, I went all-in and lost everything. Now I’m just scared when I look at contracts.

ngl, the derivatives trap hits different tho... seen too many airdrop hunters turn their initial wins into liquidation porn within 48 hours. it's like hitting mile 15 of a marathon then deciding to sprint the remaining 11 😅

That wallet theft was really the worst. Months of earning suddenly disappeared in an instant. Now I even get nervous when looking at contracts.

Getting your wallet stolen is really the worst. One of my buddies is really skilled with smart contracts, but he fell for a phishing link that directly emptied his wallet. A painful lesson.

The worst case with a contract is a complete wipeout; I've seen buddies lose 500,000 in seconds.
