In general, it seems to me that I now need to keep my personal data under seven locks. Because now information technology is very well developed and there is no problem to know your data. I think that this is not worth any money.

I am against it, but I know that a huge number of people participate in this “distribution”, moreover, they dragged into this airdrop almost all their friends and family members) that’s what money does to people, people don’t think, for profit they’re ready much ... what will happen next? I think it will not lead to anything good, and now, due to the often repeated KYC requirements and the willingness of people to sell their identity for ephemeral profits, the cryptocurrency loses its appeal to those who value their anonymity ... I find myself increasingly the thought that the cryptocurrency has become a state instrument, everything that attracted me in it is now lost, it is a pity (

They used a verification method to avoid fake account, scammer or anything like that.
The real reason for doing tier 2 verification in Blockchain wallet is to bypass your transaction limit even higher.
XLM airdrop is just a bonus for you ...

You're not doing any airdrop by giving your personal identity right?

here are many comments that it is very dangerous to give your identity $ 25, but I think many do it for $ 25.

It's true if I won't give my KYC at a low price, even for just $ 25 XLM. But I don't agree with your opinion. I think blockchain.com can protect the security of our personal data. I believe it.

are you sure ?
$ 1000 is free for you and you reject it. Okay that doesn't matter, so I will do and get $ 1000 from blockchain.com. Yes, I will do it if blockchain.com will provide such a program.

Did you do KYC on the exchange you used?
If yes, why aren't you worried about doing KYC ? and you do KYC for free. Whereas from blockchain.com you will get $ 25 XLM. and I think both have the same risk for data leakage.

Of course not worth it. Loss of data during the passage of KYC in the future can bring big problems. Therefore, it is not safe to pass KYC with such amounts.

I think an airdrop with the need for us to provide KYC does feels too much, and the amount of reward for airdrop also isn't much if compared with the data we provided for the KYC.
KYC on the blockchain is not just to get airdrop XLM, but after you verify KYC you can also use their exchange platform, so this is the same as you verify KYC on an exchanger to increase your withdrawal limit

Nah, it even said I had done the process successfully. 

Looks like I fell  between the  cracks.  They don't seem to have anysupport for this matter either.

A waste of my time and yeah they fished my ID for free.

You're wrong, I think Airdrop is just an excuse to convince users to go through KYC. But this is not a scam, it is an attempt to encourage users to interact with the wallet as much as possible, to store cryptocurrency on it, to use internal exchange and as a result earn money on it.


Not a scam?  My friend and I both gave our ID and have not received XLM...

Is this normal?  Are others waiting still?
Maybe you didn't wait five business days, it was written in the mail.. when you get kyc?

Myself and my friend both did the KYC and it was all done well over two weeks ago.

Speaking about the ongoing stellar airdrop by blockchain.com which started as a fair one but now requires those interested in the airdrop to pass some KYC procedures, I ask, is it worth it? We complain of Facebook, Google etc of stealing our privacy and possible selling them for profit to other companies and praise blockchain of been decentralized yet we're willing to sell our private details to some centralized organization offering services related to the blockchain technology and we think it's safer? I get it that the bear market has affected numerous newbie that came into the market in 2017 but I ask again is just $25 worth your privacy?

I suspect this moved by them as a deliberate attempt to steal users private details (identify), first they made the airdrop looks so simple and easy thereby deceiving numerous customers into believing they would get free $25 after they have trapped their victim, they then introduce kyc to steal their identity.

i became a little worried about this, because i had followed the airdrop from blockchain.com and gave my identity to them.

i hope it's fine, at that time i was so innocent and didn't think about that excessively.
because i think they will keep the secret of everyone who participates.

I would never disclose IDs to a potential thief for so low money. And remember you may not receive the coins.

I got the e-mail and in the written e-mail got 25 dollars with identity verification. And for me, it's okay to get those 25 dollars. While we use our own ID.

So basically they will just pay you with $25 for your personal information? Hmm, it's not worthy to push and send your personal details to them. Looks like someone is planning on something with a very small price to pay. But, i won't fall for it and i hope most of you don't too but I've heard there are some spammers that are using fake IDs to make it happen. How could their system verify them one by one?

I rhink it's not worth $25 XLM for you information or submission of KYC but depends on the person if they really need money.
But for me I will not pass my Identity with some money maybe I will pass my Identity if the amount is worth $1000 and Up and for sure most of us will do that.
because sometimes people really need money so they do everything as long as they can get money, especially if the method is easy, people will be very interested.

but unfortunately they don't think about the risks they can do because our identity is something that is very important to us especially the privacy so you have to think carefully before giving your identity.

I stay away from any airdrop that require my personal data, even if it's a platform with a good reputation in this particular case.
Because that's related to our sensitive data and it's not worth to give it. But this time a lot of people don't care about that and it seems like they are only wanna getting a few bucks and paid it with their identity and they don't know how important their data

Am yet to understand why blockchain is interested in our identity. Bitcoin should be unregulated and owners of wallet should be anonymous. The idea of giving out $25 in exchange for users identity is suspicious. Let's be careful of how we give out our privacy to avoid unwarranted issues in the future.

Always, there will be people who want to take advantage of something, that's why there is KYC process to prevent one person from getting to much of something which was planned to be distributed for more people.

I didn't think too much about this when they did the first xlm airdrop sometime last year, but thinking of it now, I wouldn't go through the stress just for $25 worth of crypto.
