Just witnessed the fastest claim window ever – $RLS airdrop wrapped up in under two minutes.
Tried to get through but the captcha system completely choked under the traffic surge. By the time I finally passed verification, the whole thing was already over. Pretty frustrating experience honestly.
This FCFS (first-come-first-served) approach clearly isn't working. When eligible participants can't even complete basic verification before allocation runs dry, something's broken.
Here's a thought: why not set claim thresholds based on qualification criteria? Give everyone who qualifies a reasonable time window to claim instead of turning it into a speed contest where bots and network latency decide who gets in.

Two minutes? LOL, how is this an airdrop? This is a bot fest...

The failure of the verification code system under peak traffic is a typical architectural design flaw... Real data proves that FCFS simply can't handle concurrency, which is a sign that the infrastructure is not well done. It is a reasonable protocol architecture idea to open the claims window in batches according to qualification standards.

Two minutes? Really? I didn't even react before it was gone
The verification code system really crashed hard, this is the daily life of web3
This FCFS system should have been changed long ago, it's just purely rewarding Bots.

This is the norm of web3, with captcha crashes, Bots running rampant, and real participants being stuck on loading pages... Quite ironic.

It's the same old trick again... verification code crashes, windows close in seconds, and the qualified ones get stuck. It's truly ridiculous.

Another pure Bots carnival... Two minutes? I didn't even see the verification code clearly before it was gone, this is not an Airdrop, it's robbery.

It's this trap again, soon no one will be able to grab it... When the verification code gets stuck, I know I'm going to be Rekt.

It's the same old story again, the verification code is stuck, the airdrop is gone, typical. I just want to ask if these project parties have water in their brains, why do they have to make it feel like a rush purchase? Qualified users can't even get it, but Bots and scalpers are making a fortune. I already said they should allocate directly based on on-chain data, but they refused to listen.

The verification code was stuck for two minutes, and when I checked, the airdrop was gone... This operation is really something, it feels like I'm competing with Bots for food.
