I am a newbie and it is how i see it. There are different types of airdrophunters.
1. Those who use fake accountes, get reward of several persons and than sell it on exchange in the first day what may look like people try to get rid of company's currency.

2.Those who are competitors, they use fakes to collect several rewards and than keep them. Because of them less coins go on exchange.

3.Just those who interested in some free money.

Correct me please, if i am not right.

Better if you will just do anything according rules and its okey I think

Yes you understood correctly. You can earn some good penny with AirDrops. In my opinion its worth to do them!

That's right, you can just earn the small amount of reward given by the rules and pools of distribution, that's why some so-called airdrops hunters tried to create tons of farming accounts to get more tokens thus earning lots of pennies just by joining.

Most of airdrops now are shitcoins which doesn't cost anything at all. I don't think they worth the time you spend to fill out all those forms. Of course, there're some exceptions but they're so rare.

Yet they abused and violated the rules of the airdrop by creating farm accounts for that useless coins worse is that they spotted some rare airdrops that give meaningful values to its tokens when release.

The coin developers distribute it before going on the market for free for a reason , I guess this is for the coin to be sold and bought, then it will be known by people and it will be heard - this is a form of advertisement!

But is it always really benefitial for ICOs. Because it is known fact that many types of advertisements are not paid-off.

Yeah, when people hear good information about u - it is the key for success. Small part of coins is a good thing!

Several times I heard about airdrop hunters. They create many accounts from different IPs and participate in airdrops of different ICOs. But as soon as exchange starts, they sell all those tokens/coins. Did i understand correctly?

What is interesting how they affect ICOs value on the market?

For example, I am participating in KickCity’s airdrop today because I want to invest in this company. But I don’t think that all participants are eager to do the same. How it may affect the company’s future?

Btw, do somebody know about avaliable now Airdrops?

when exchange start coins price is high and price dump every time so the early they sell the better. ICOs airdrop just a small portion of their coins and you will get only a small amount but sometimes the coins price is high so they will gain big. multiple accounts are ban but it will be hard pinpointing them one by one as participants in airdrop would reach 1000+~. ICOs do airdrop to promote their coin and to attract more investor.

Well, I don't agree. Sometimes it is better to hold and then sell those coins/tokens by higher price. At the begining ICO is not stable at all and many speculators use it. So it is different from company to company.
Problem, thar you didn't mention is that many Airdrop participantes are banned.+ many airdrops used by scammers to steal private information.

Airdrop sometimes put the forum members in blacklist and being banned to post anything, though the intention is not, however, people really are very hopeful to participate without investing something but their time. Unlike in ICOs where we are to invest something, in airdrop its a nothing to loss situation but the risk is being banned from the forums. At the end of the day, we just have to be mindful of what we got into.

But what is the reason? Why ICOs ban participants in their airdrops?

Normally bounty and airdrop hunters sell their coins when it's listed on an exchange. With a price drop it's an excellent chance for an investor as your self to pick up more cheap coins. If you believe in the project you can just keep holding and buy extra.

There's nothing to stop people from setting up multiple accounts to run bounty campaigns either, so I'm not sure what some of the other posters are trying to say. Also, ICO investors often dump within days of the tokens/coins going live on exchanges, trying to cash in on the first initial surge, so trying to pin the blame on airdrops is a little naive.

Most airdrops are crap - with a few exceptions. Blue dropped 1000 Blue to folks a few months back, and they have performed very well. PolyMatch just wrapped their airdrop sign-up, but enforced KYC submissions, eliminating the risk of account spamming.

Like everything else in life, you have to be a little discerning on what you sign-up for. For one, any airdrop that asks you to make a donation to receive the drop, is probably a scam. Any airdrop/ICO using a bog standard ERC20 token, with no purpose other than "being used as a REAL currency" is going to be BS. That said, most airdrops require little to no effort, so it doesn't hurt to sign up for them. You never know which ones might eventually amount to something.

P.S. if anyone knows of any WAVES based airdrops, please add them, to this thread: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.27939979

All airdrop managers ban "multi users", so it's not profitable business,as for me))

So, you're stating that you have multiple accounts? and you stated that it's a business? LOL WTH!

In my opinion this is an unworthy occupation! It is better to study and engage in a more useful and profitable business, such as trading on the stock exchange, or become an investor.

Airdrops are free money for many participants, ICO creates airdrops to get more audience on their TELEGRAM, TWITTER, and Facebook.
This is a great step in promoting their ICO.
the good benefit of airdrop is stated, though the bad side of the airdrop is the coin dumping that really hurt the market price. This is bad for investors.

all i know is, those airdrop is depends on the dev of the project, airdrop that provide roadmap, papers and others proof that it was legit will give a trust to the participants that will make them hold the coins, meanwhile most of the airdrop that just give the form link to signup (even if it was legit and enter the markets) will not give any affect to the participants. i mean those participants didn't know what project that those airdrop working for. no good price looking ahead.

except if they make a second airdrop (it will risk for price get dumped)

Do not agree!
1.There are many good ICOs and their currency price usually raise quite high! You just need to be able to recognize them doing a bit of analytics.
2.Even if you sell the whole reward for the Airdrop task immediately, they may cost quite a lot. Even that KickCity ICO, they give 30 euro to each participant.

Airdrop kill the coin if they release too many coins. All the people do is sell their coins and not purchase coins.

So you believe that if they limit amount of released coins, airdrop may be beneficial?
