Actually, no one will give you a free coin without doing nothing, even in airdrop, To get coin/money people must do something and it applies to all also in an airdrop, should be beneficial to 2 parties. So in airdrop, you get your coin, and developers of the project get the followers
And airdrop is an easy task, right??

For me personally - if it requires a minimum of effort-airdrop. If airdrop is "encouraging", then all you need to do is one repost or registration on some resource. If the airdrop is "automatic", then you do not have to do anything at all — the essence of the" automatic " airdrop is that some tokens are awarded for the fact that you have a certain amount of other tokens. And even more so if this is an "encouraging" airdrop, and the project has its own blockchain, and it is not yet very popular in society, you will 100% have to fill out something, or subscribe to social networks.
But you need to perform some additional actions, monitor something, and periodically write that this is a bounty campaign.

You can finish participating in Airdrop within a few minutes by doing some simple tasks such as liking their Facebook page, retweeting a tweet ... etc, and I do not advise you to spend your time on this nonsense because it is difficult to find honest airdrop, so you should participate in the bounty campaigns are better for you, after well reviewed.
that shouldn't be a confusion because the two are just same IMO. They all accept information from participants in various degrees and with different mode of operation. Sincerely speaking, this will continue as nothing can be done to Savage this happenings around the system. What I would advise on this two is: don't give out your information to expect good coins or tokens from these projects because thousands of them are just spam tokens use by hackers.
I understand OP very well, i want to say airdrop was not like what we have now then, people have now mistaken bounty for airdrop, airdrop was supposed to be a form of free tokens distributed to people's wallet without any engagement but what we have now is totally different, you have to spend 1 hour filling some google form and carrying out some task on the social media to be eligible for a reward.
I agree with the OP the term airdrop has been greatly abuse, and all these bounty manager should stop using the terms to deceive people from joining their bounty. A good example of what Airdrop is, is the Uniswap airdrops for everyone that has used their platform before, not string attached just follow basic steps and you have your tokens, not that you would be require to join telegram, make tweets and retweets and some of these other funny task.

Something to just sell your identity because most "airdrops" do KYC verification. It's still a bounty campaign in the end, but with lesser task to do and you aren't entirely bind to do something every week, well I guess checking out the announcement of team when the airdrop goes live. Aside from it, it's still a token to be given away for free and that free made me trust airdrops less. Nobody would give random people free money even if that was for marketing purposes.
Many airdrop campaign it hard to end well with the hunter without no complain about the fees charged. Some hunter saw that the token program for the campaign is not go to be okay with the people that apply for the campaign.
Bounty campaign that carry free altcoin bonus sometimes is look as if the airdrop is free during the campaign until you do some research concerning the token that is trending in the market. I think every bounty campaign that carry so much hunter find it difficult to earn more in the campaign.

This thought just comes to my mind especially these days, with a lot of altcoins doing airdrops or giving away different altcoins.
But I got some confusion here when the "airdrop" term used.
Because for what I believe the meaning of "airdrop" is a way of giving a free coin/s to some wallet addresses without seeking any investment or doing nothing.
Are those spreading all over around especially in this forum known to be an "airdrop" is considered an airdrop or bounty campaign since some of those are requiring people to fill up some of the forms or need to sign up or follow some social media accounts, etc?
Since you did some task or work to get those coins.

i think thats no a big issue my friend, if we have to fill out the form and follow some social media accounts except KYC
at least we help the project grow and we get rewards for doing that without giving money to the project wich mean its still free

Either Airdrops or bounties you still have to do something, join social media channels or other, nothing is for free, Airdrops aren't entirely free even if that's what you keep hearing, do not be fooled, you have to give something to get something back, new projects are getting exposure in exchange for free tokens But I got some confusion here when the "airdrop" term used.

Actually with an Airdrop it doesn't mean we will get income easily, actually if you think that Airdrop is just a diversion for the project to find many communities in it, and coupled with a prize campaign to further improve the project community, actually Airdrop is not like before. where the number of airdrops that actually make money, in contrast to airdrops at this point have no value at all, because over time with the existence of a prize campaign making airdrops forgotten by many people, especially old players, because there is no new concept provided by the project to hold an Airdrop, if there is a new concept there will likely be more and more people interest in the Airdrop ...
99 percent of the airdrops are now scam, absolutely nothing worthwhile. And people are already tired of this, so now only few people participate in them. Therefore, the conclusion is that most airdrops are created by scammers, and most scammers participate in them.
As I remembered during 2017 it was not actually airdrops but a giveaways to anyone who will participate in it. And by that time you will only fill up or sign-up the form then you wait for the free coins to be send in the wallet they will give. But now it became an Airdrops from giveaways before where it has a lot of task before you receive the free rewards, therefore this is not a free coin anymore because there is a task you need to comply first then if you didn't comply it no rewards to be given after the program, just as simple as that.
The words Airdrop are easier to understand in the world of Cryptocurrency in exchange for prizes for doing fairly simple tasks. The word Airdrop is quite popular, almost all crypto projects call it Airdrop when distributing tokens to their community by implementing very easy rules. The discussion about Airdrop is indeed quite interesting because in 2017 and 2018 the income from Airdrop is quite satisfying.
It's nice to go back to the past and the income from the airdrop in those days, I remember I earn 0.1 BTC in just one airdrop so I tried harder to join another airdrop and earn more but sadly the hype in the airdrops did not last long and ended immediately because many scams came out.

I mean even latest big example of uniswap - they didn't ask anything for it except being a user of their service which is already something (you paid fees).
So I don't think there will be any airdrop that won't require one thing, but your wallet address, company wants to get value for the coins.

That is the right definition of airdrop. you don't need to do anything you just received I don't know how this started working for an airdrop it should not be label as airdrop but bounty campaign, because they worked the same, I read that in the early days of Bitcointalk you just need to paste your address in a thread and you will get your free coins.

To the best of my knowledge and considering the happenings all these years, I will say airdrop gradually lost its meaning.
Yes, you are right, airdrop is giving away free tokens to addresses but then some projects now came up with different ideas of airdropping those free tokens to wallets or users which are supporting their platform. This is where the idea of bots comes to play in telegram, thus with telegram bots and by doing one or two tasks, then adding your wallet you will be eligible for it. Also, Google forms came up as well, where wallet address will be collected after performing some tasks. So indirectly, the whole idea changed because project team now use it as an opportunity to grow their social media accounts while getting attention as well.
Therefore, this idea of filling forms and telegram bots now gave rise to scams where people who are meant to be sent free tokens are now ask to either put their private keys, or send ETH for gas fees etc.
So I would say, airdrop lost its meaning because the whole idea changed, maybe it can be likened to a lesser form of bounty; to make it worst some airdrops nowadays are not even worth it.
Recently, the conditions for airdrops are becoming more complex and they are already becoming like a bounty program, in which you need to perform certain actions. And now it's not enough just to send your address for distribution, you also need to join various telegram groups and social networks. And it is possible that the main goal of airdrops is to increase the number of subscribers to the channel.
