Topic: Is $25 XLM worth your privacy (identify). - page 9. (Read 10213 times)
it really depends on everyone's perception because there are people who think that $ 25 is a large number and some think it is a very small number, some really want to protect their privacy and some don't really care about that and my answer to this question is "not worth it"
There are some countries that will join here even it costs their private information because maybe they are in need of money.
In my opinion, I don't think my identity costs only 25$. Not even 100 or 1000$. I don't want to give my personal information to some random people out there for tokens even XLM is a good coin for me.

each team or developer must always notify all potential participants that they must verify the KYC from the start, not after everyone has worked hard and then says that each participant is required to verify KYC, it seems compelling and does not give the chosen participant.
and because the Airdrop held by Stellar from the beginning did tell such conditions then I thought it was feasible and even this was not a problem at all because actually this is a simple case because we can choose to follow Airdrop or not after knowing the requirements

I only see that the blockchain wallet is still safe, so there's nothing wrong if we verify the wallet to save assets like we did in some wallets / markets that require us to do KYC to do WD so we will do it without problems to get $ 25 but all for convenience or service on the platform, but if the blockchain does something that endangers us all, trust in the wallet will be greatly reduced and of course we leave it.
The $25 XLM Airdrop in blockchain.com is one of the marketing strategy for Stellar itself but also it can help the mass adoption of cryptocurrency if more new people participate on that Airdrop though it is not a big amount to give your identity but the intention is good for crypto industry.
I think that many people trust this wallet for this, they are ready to go through identification in order to get free coins. They don’t see any risk in that.
Blockchain.com is a big site, so in my opinion your personal data will remain safe and always privacy. If indeed they really sell, then you can prosecute it legally, because this site has a center and transparency of the company.
KYC is intended to reduce the level of fraud that exists, such as manipulating data to get money from airdrop

I believe people giving up their identity for such a tiny bit of money must have a die need for that amount as at that time but for it's a No No, my identity is too precious for such a tiny drop
I think giving your own privacy for 25$ is not worth it. You could not know where they will they put or what will they gonna do with it. It's too risky giving out classified information to people you don't even know. Aside that, there are many ways to earn money using the block chain but doing KYC its a big no for me.
In the last few days i am thinking about 25$ worth XLM token which is offering airdrop token by blockchain. 25$ very low amount comparatively with identify verification. Blockchain is undoubtedly legitimacy that's why i don't think abusing or selling with our identity documents. Although i already submitting KYC but still pending.
I did this airdrop and performed the KYC but I haven't received the XLM till now. I see Blockchain as a very good project with integrity, that's the reason I took the risk in the first place.
I believe Blockchain is legit. I found it strange for any small airdrop projects require KYC for even smaller amount or even 0 but people do it without questions.
Blockchain is a good site, so if you need money from them, from Stellar, you can do KYC and claim your free $25 in XLM.But, if you don't need money and don't want to take risks, don't do that.
I don't say Blockchain.info is unreliable, bad-secured, but disclosing identities to third sides when you don't have to do that is bad ideas.

there's people who really done doing it, not only because of such amount but curiosity and lack of knowledge about the risk that they've take, personally it's hard to provide you personal information online as we don't know what harmed can be done to us, and yes, needs to be very careful next time scammers and hackers are always finding ways to take something from us.
If people don't have reasonable things to really need money for their lives, they should not do KYC to get money from airdrops, bounties.It will become more important if they have intention to do KYCs on strange sites, new born projects.
The risks on those strange, young sites are higher.
Don't sell your personal data for $25. they might tell you they need KYC to avoid cheaters but be sure where you are putting yourself into. they are harvest people information just like facebook, and google.
actually, I did KYC, and I think a lot of people did it. well, however, that is not really appropriate, however, I think I've done the same thing on some exchangers. well, maybe next time I will be more careful.Don't sell your personal data for $25. they might tell you they need KYC to avoid cheaters but be sure where you are putting yourself into. they are harvest people information just like facebook, and google.

If the person has already passed KYC somewhere, why not get an XLM, and if the person wants to stay anonymous, it is better not to pass KYC, it is better to stay anonymous

Good post you are absolutely right this is totally unfair to give airdrop just worth 25$ USD and want to pass KYC, I join it but when they ask for KYC i leave it i don't want such a little amount of XLM for my precious info.
With the issue of the social media sites, they misuse our information without any explicit authorization and for airdrops, we willingly give out our private data. I will personally not participate, going through KYC is a boring and stressful process for me
