in my opinion, Airdrop is a free distribution of coins from developers who want to promote their goods or coins quickly without much advertising here and there. the function of airdrop is to train us newbie to participate on bounty campaign. So that we are more fluent in working bounty.

Airdrop is a free distribution of coins and one way to attract the attention of people who may be interested in their product. For me, it's just a capital increase.

An airdrop is a marketing way to draw attention to your coin or token. Because who doesn't like it to get something for free? It is very effective to spread awareness of what you are doing.

An airdrop is when you receive free coins or tokens. Airdrops are done in several ways:

* Hodler Airdrops: This is when you receive free free coins if you hold a specific coin. For example BTC. Byteball was an airdrop of this type.
* Airdrops/Bounties for tasks you accomplish. Many airdrops force people to join Telegram groups oder follow via Twitter.

Here is an airdrop source which I like: https://twitter.com/CryptoAirdrops

When the developer of the airdrop coin decided to give the coin to holders of certain coin, it is an airdrop.

It is free, so don’t fall for scams to pay in order to claim for the airdropped coins.

Airdrop is to expand the publicity by issuing free encryption token. It functions as long as the item is given free of charge according to certain rules. Effect: more people can be involved in the airdrop. It can improve the publicity effect of the project very well.

Functioning is that you appoint yourself into a list that will be given X amount of tokens. Implications are marketing, means you will own their tokens plus you will advertise them via different social media sites, forums and overall ways to earn more of their tokens... Basically is just paid advertisement

So there is no unreciprocated airdrop? How is it different from bounties then? I thought airdrop was distributed gratuitously.

Helps users get involved with the project by incentivizing them to learn more about it and in return they get free coins. People sign up for an address and then get sent coins, and the hope is that the coin explodes and the free coins are now worth a decent amount of money.

And it is interesting and stimulates interest in the project

The ideologies of airdrop is a win win situation between developers and participants. All airdrop are free giveaway to participant but most comes with instructions to do something like tweeting about the project which is similar to advertising for the project. So in all everyone benefit.

An airdrop is a distribution mechanism for a project to transfer crypto tokens or coins to wallet addresses.

Usually, the developers allocate a pool of coins to the airdrop. They then implement the airdrop using parameters they have decided upon. These may or may not be published. Parameters can be anything the developers choose. For example, an individual may get a share of coins proportional to the amount they already hold. For many airdrops developers need to collect information from recipients - say, proof of nationality (in the case of Country Coin airdrops) or addresses of wallets not on the same chain as the air drop coin. The developers can then run a script against a block explorer for that alien address and reward recipients with a share of their own coin proportional to the amount held on the other chain. Platforms like Waves and Ardor make airdrops easier across different tokens. Most airdrops are organised at the start of a project, either in one drop, or are staged in regular drops. Any project with control of their crypto assets can drop them whenever and however they choose.

Projects like Bitcoin Cash and Bitcoin Gold were not airdrops - the chain was forked and recipients held 1:1 with Bitcoin itself. The developers did not have any discretion as to who got what. You can be sure that developers behind these sort of projects are already whales in the original blockchain and the 1:1 reward is motivation for them.
