Well, you're not wrong, but you're not correct also.
Airdrops are mainly used nowadays to fill the telegram channels with fake people, so that the project looks more interesting than it actually is.
I know alot of airdrop providers, and basically that's just it. They get people who immediately mute the group.
So is it a good marketing tool? Fuck no, it's not.
Could those funds be used better? Yeah

Your point is valid airdrops are not working as they need to do because we have some good number on bots on telegram and other social media sites they are ruining these very badly so projects need to spend their money of airdrops in better way instead of these airdrops because this is very important for their project to hilite in some better and solid way through different channles.
If they feel or have time to spend then surely they can bring some small tasks or any thing relate to this for giving their tokens because in airdrops they have no real users.

Well yes it is important for the project if they manage to run it correctly or effectively, most of the airdrop right now are only running an airdrop just for the sake of having an investor then suddenly will just go away and scam them.

this is a wrong advise to follow. Airdrop are baseless and useless. what and how do you intend selling or sending a token that worth 5usd or 7usd to exchange or use a swap exchange when Ethereum gas fees are crazy at the moment. you might spend half of the money you earn in transactions. so what is the need of getting the airdrops since you spend half of the earning to exchange the token.

Exactly, airdrops are nothing less than wasting time. As you have mentioned above that people have joined airdrop and if you're lucky then you'll get a chance to earn $10 to $15 through that airdrop and half of the amount needed for the transaction's gas fees, so there is no need to put your time for the airdrops because it is not worthwhile.

Although with good planning by the team and allowing only community members that can bring quality to the project it will help. Community matters and an airdrop until recently might have been $10 as you say but I have an example in my mind where it was way more than that and I have analyzed it and found that the airdrops helped this project create a better community that helped, in turn, to create a good price and develop into something better.
This can be done if a few people find a hundred more that spend just an hour every day for the community. What every project lacks is this and with the thousands we have today we see no community and no support in most of the startups.

Airdrops, giveaways are a part of the promotion of a project. It helps a lot mainly for increasing social media followers and site registrations. Yes, it's important but if you take a look you can see, some project is still doing well without any airdrops, again some project did not listed in any exchange yet after a huge airdrop. So it important or not is dependent on the project if a project takes it in a positive way then it's important for them. When a project runs an airdrop only collect people informations, and steal money this also important for them but in a Negative way.

Airdrops are important to new projects. Airdrops will increase the number of engagement for a particular project and even make such a project known to all sundry. If airdrops are handled well by the project manager it will really help the new project to gain a larger engagement

I agree that airdrops are an important part of the project's advertising, it allows you to attract a large audience of users, unfortunately, there are no such high-profile airdrops as in 2018. One of the most high-profile was the distribution of EBTC, I managed to sell them almost immediately on etherdelta and get more than $ 1000 in ETH. I hope there will be more such airdrops.

I don't think airdrop is worthy of your time because for me it was not. Most of the airdrops you will get are coming from new projects and you don't even know if they are promising or not. Let's say yeah there are still goods ones but more likely they are not that good as what you think of. In my experience, I only barely get a decent profit from airdrops and there are some cases that their tokens are hard to be get listed, it takes time thus it makes worthless. Find another way to earn cause airdrop will be just a waste of time.

Airdrops aren't so important anymore and I don't blame the idea behind airdrop itself but new projects trying to use airdrop to create good awareness, the amount of tokens they are giving up for airdrop participants are too low, you will be lucky to make up to 20$ joining Airdrops nowadays, they makes no more sense to me, bounties are way better than Airdrops and majority don't care about Airdrops anymore

In fact, airdrops have been an important aspect in most of the successful crypto projects as it is the initial step which takes any project to the community. People get know the project and start to read or research more on it after that. But due to the scams which took place in last few years, people lost their faith in airdrops and now we see a low participation as a result of it.

Airdrops have indeed become a characteristic in a project promotion. And indeed, in general, projects will use this airdrop program to attract investors. The absence of Airdrops will certainly be a question for investors, because this is something that is unusual. So the presence of airdrops in a project is actually important, apart from helping with promotions, these airdrops are already attached to the project.

Honestly people are walking away from Airdrops because they make no sense anymore, it's a good way for new projects to advertise their tokens and attract more investors but they are highly disapointing this days as many of them are so low in value, making all your efforts a complete waste of time, the most annoying part is Airdrops that ask for KYC verifications, not worth it IMO

Airdrops are important to new projects, this is a way for them to grow their social media groups organically and it's one of the best ways to spread the brand awareness of their project. In such a way, they can encourage possible users or investors. So mostly are launching it.

Yes I am completely against KYC for anything. I mentioned one airdrop that asked for KYC and paid but I wasn't clear. Airdrops with KYC are to be avoided and anything with KYC too.

True, any free program is not worth asking for KYC from every participant who helps it, but if it's for a good exchange or a clear exchange, I don't think it's a problem to give KYC, because it's for the convenience of the exchange user, but if it's for Airdrop it will be very fatal and if given real KYC data, that person is very stupid.

For me its not necessary. Projects do airdrop to have exposure of their concept but its not necessary if the project has a lot of demand and engagement on their platform.

I've also participated on countless airdrops before and even know but only few chosen one. I can say that airdrop now are not comparable with the giveaway before that you can actually gained huge value from it. Now with recent gas hike it seems reward are not even worth to trade it.

In the past, airdrops were eagerly awaited by bounty hunters, because they were very clear and definitely paid and would definitely be fiat money to use, but now the average airdrops is just a scam to raise funds by reason of postage but for the sake of results. The existing airdrops has no price, and for KYC that is needed at any time, it will only be used as data theft

There are no doubts about the importance of airdrops; the only scenario where there are doubts is related is when it comes to identifying genuine airdrop campaigns; and also how to join airdrops and also understanding the kinds of airdrops available. Uniswap gave platform users 400 UNI token as airdrop, while key base made participants download and set up their airdrops to earn too.

and there are airdrops that steal your personal information and then vanish

They are not that important I've seen some good and successful project that didn't do an airdrop but in the end they still managed to be successful I think if your project is really that good you don't need to have an airdrop before someone would notice about it.

Airdrops are good if they are similar to that of Uniswap, no KYC, decentralized with usage and already in the market, this is the kind of airdrop worth participating, I do like airdrop but I don't like KYC, because it's very risky to give your vital information to people, so lucky that Uniswap did not ask for KYC.
