Topic: Getting Altcoins - Airdrops etc. - page 4. (Read 13504 times)
I've seen there's a suggestion in another thread that Ziber may be a scam (https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ziberio-is-a-scam-do-not-invest-now-confirmed-doors-are-now-closed-hahaha-2048619). I don't know either way, so for safety I have removed its URL from the table above.
Has anyone ever made any significant amount from free coin giveaways or airdrops?
For me it just seems like a waste of time, but I'd love to hear from some other people who have some succes stories...

apparently NEM and ripple giveaways are worth a lot now. although both made it effectively impossible to get your coins from them after a certain date.
I think all people got xem and xrp in giveaway times already sold them for cheap money. Airdrop hunters can't wait long time to keep their coins.
So true. Most airdrop hunters accumulate and accumulate and then dump when the coin hits the market. its always a risk as some turn to vapour real quick. I do however regret no jumping on the XEM distribution. As for me I always hold, and hope, and hold some more.

4 btc from an airdrop? I'm relatively new here and all I've seen are worthless airdrops. Do you think there will be others of value again in the future?
most airdrops/sigdrops/giveaways are nearly worthless when given.. Byteball and Stellar are exceptions. Some giveaways have turned out to be very valuable if held for a long time (Ripple, NEM, Decred, there are many others); but they were next to worthless at the time of the giveaway.
if you're looking for somebody to give you a quick $50 or $100 today, panhandling is gonna be more profitable than the giveaways around here.

So far I've doubled my bitcoin holdings with Byteball. Also, Decred was another coin that the airdrop would be worth around 4 btc today if held. I think it was 1 btc worth at the time of airdrop as well, so of course most people took that and ran.

for the OP thank you for the list I will try it
No problem. Meanwhile I've updated the table regarding the current StraightCoin and CoinStarter events (in the latter case the giveaway has dropped from 75 to 50 and drops again tomorrow).
Thanks for the list
You're welcome!
I made a couple of replies to Sindbad's comment and have had them deleted, no idea why, so I think I have to be careful what I say here or it will happen again.

Depends how you define significant. Best i've done was getting .75 gbytes just before the round 3 airdrop in a giveaway I lucked into. With subsequent rounds of appreciation it's over 2 gbytes now, so >$1000. There were some NEM drops that netted people tens of thousands, maybe more. So it's possiblebut also not terribly likely.
As the receiver you need to be a strong holder too, cashing in quick might be nice but sure won't make you rich.
I've attended Faircoin airdrop long time ago. Kept the coins forgotten in the wallet, it is now aroud 3~4 BTC.
Woah - that's impressive!
I kept the coins for about 3 years, and still keeping. I'll be rich or get nothing....
If you kept your original Faircoin airdrop 3 years ago and did not follow the development, those coins will be worthless today. FYI there was a coin swapped that happened before as far as I can remember.
