Any deposit airdrop.

Get ready to get scammed. It's a new project right? no one can vouch is safe or not. It's just gambling, you hoping is pay off & not getting scam. However, most people are really avoiding any kind of deposit airdrop scheme.

Just to risk.

Airdrops can come in two forms. Free or paying airdrop. The fact that an airdrop ask you to pay doesn't make it a scam. It may be a way to select out of millions the serious participants. Although this may be risking because pay for airdrop has no difference with gambling. This is because you may or may not receive reward for the paid airdrop. We also have some free airdrops that pay their participant with good rewards. It's is highly difficult most time to know a legit airdrop. So it is only advice to spend money you can avoid to lose on paid airdrop.

yeah thats true there are some airdrop that require staking, etc. just because they require to stake doesn't mean they are scam, the one that scams usually are those random shitcoin that open up presale or ICO and then ditched.
the big project like blast that require staking and right now the TVL is touching 1 billion and more and also other project like eigenlayer and so on I don't think they are scam because they are also endorsed by big company.
its matter about selecting project to be honest, not all airdrops are scams same with not all airdrops are gonna be rewarding experiences.
but i've seen plenty that already gained significant amount of money from airdrop its just matter of luck, discipline to finish task also the ability to find some good project. otherwise you re more likely to waste time if we are just lazing around with all the airdrop only following some random airdrop.

I have never encountered this kind of airdrop before and most of the airdrops that ask for a deposit are scam. What I know is that Airdrop incurs a small fee when claiming as a transaction fee. for a beginner 0.1 BNB is very big and I think it is too risky. I suggest that you should only participate in free airdrops or don't need to pay any money.

So far, when I have participated in an airdrop, I have never been asked for any fees because how can they charge a fee when all that has been given so far is just that? Maybe I am the same as you in that this is the first time I know that there is a fee in advance, and if I ask for the value you said, it seems unreasonable because the value is quite high and may not be commensurate with the value that will be obtained. I agree. If there is an airdrop asking for anything under the pretext of a fee that must be transferred first, you can be sure it is a scam. It is better to avoid it, and it is true that many airdrops are free, and of course you cannot rely on them to pay.

That's right! Airdrop are done to engage the community not to ask them to buy to participate for the airdrop. Either OP has been scammed or the OP is a scammer promoting a scam project. I personally think OP has been scammed and has no clue that he was going to get scammed again.

Maybe there are some legitimate airdrops again, but I don't trust any of them after what airdrops have done to the cryptocurrency community. Because of some airdrop scams, a lot of people have lost faith in cryptocurrencies, dismissing it to be a a scam without conducting extensive investigation.

Anyone interested in participating in an airdrop should conduct extensive research on the project and avoid using their personal wallets they use to save their coins on airdrops because scammers are looking for ways to gain access to people's wallets through airdrop wallet connect in order to steal their coins; therefore, if you are interested in participating in an airdrop, use a new wallet.

Who's picking up his time to make thorough research concerning airdrops, anyone? The era of airdrops have ended and now is the time we're traders fixed their time to be on trading, investment on altcoins. Who's having hope on airdrops till this present day? Ofcourse I've no clue on the market when it comes to airdrops, it was in my early times in the space, having strong ambition and ensure I finish all tasks, some ender up as scam while some were legit and at the end of the day, generate few changes from the piece of tokens accumulated from the airdrops.

For as long as there are people out there that want to make money in this market without investing any money on their own, airdrops and bounties will keep on existing.

What I find surprising is that there are people out there that think like this, and they are willing to send some of their small holdings to a new project in the hopes that they get a bounty and those coins go up in value, as it is clear to me that any project that does that is just scamming those sending their money.

Recently, I've been exploring blast.io, where they conducted an airdrop with a unique approach. Participants deposit 0.1 ETH, receive blast airdrop tokens, and also get their ETH back with some APY. It caught my interest, so I looked into another project called y24.io. They're launching on the BNB chain and seem to be following a similar strategy. Deposit 0.1 BNB, complete tasks, and get up to 1000 y24 tokens daily. Since they've just started, I'm wondering if it's a good idea to participate. In blast, users gained significant profits, and I believe y24 might also offer good returns. I'd appreciate suggestions from experts.

I don't really think airdrop is really pay. it might pay to others but me personally all I did, I have never cashout ever since I have been receiving airdrop numerous of them and I have given up on airdrops I better or rather buy a real coin than put my hope on free project. Most of this free project are just a waste of time and it occupies space in your wallet and given you false hope.

I still spend every day to follow and read the current trends, meaning that airdrops follow from projects that are being discussed, not always new projects. Even altcoins that are already active in the market still often hold, for traffic and community fomo for me airdrop hunters are still effective. There is trending, market, transaction density discussion on social media and the project continues, IMO it is a growing ecosystem.
======================================================
Past disappointments, especially ico buyers, presale and other early purchases are optional, no one requires it, it's just an offer, for loyal participants and developers to give more value because they have contributed. I only participate and only require a reasonable gas fee and usually that's when I claim it.

If you directly invest in altcoins, of course you already know information from other people first? maybe, it could be that the person is an airdrop hunter, for me, airdrop events are a fast and effective means of promotion and not a scary thing, if in doubt, just separate the tesnet wallet from the mainnet wallet, there are many options to keep scammers from attacking. including many options for choosing a wallet.

Are all other projects legitimate, such as the Blast project, which I have never heard of before? I do not know frankly how the participants obtained their airdrop, but what I truly believe is that the new projects or exchange platforms that require fees that you deposit in order to receive an airdrop or to be able to withdraw your money are mostly scams. There is no guarantee that if you deposit 0.1 of BNB on this new domain of the Y24 platform, you will receive an Airdrop.

Everyone is accustomed to the fact that participation in Airdrop is free, so why do they ask to deposit money in the beginning? What is the benefit of depositing this money? Suppose the project has a Layer 2 blockchain network and Ecosystem. In that case, it is possible to participate using some fees in this network, and participants can eventually get an airdrop for their interactions in the project. Still, the matter is different with Y24, which does not have communities and seems a suspicious platform with an unreasonable APY.

With opportunities like this in the crypto industry field, there are still legitimate airdrops. That's why you should use the token platform first before you become qualified participants here for a few months, and then you're not sure if it will conduct airdrops.

I guess you should do it at your own risk. For example, like Uniswap, the ones who received their airdrops were those who used their platform for a few months, so those who participated in their airdrops also made a lot of money.

When they can always give you tokens for completing tasks, why do they need for us to deposit a certain amount? Any airdrops that requires deposit, you should always consider them a scam. Everyone is a suspect until proven. So be cautious about everything. I mean they can simply give you token and when it's time to withdraw, they can simply deduct the amount equivalent to the amount that is needed for completing the tasks. Then why are they asking for fee first?

Projects having similar concept most likely turns out to be a scam. If they see something that have been successful in the past, they take that concept and make something on their own so that people will think this will work out the same way but in the end they get scammed. So be careful before you get into it. I'm not going to click that link so sorry for that. But if you are really interested, do your own research before joining.

Smart is not enough, there must be skills

So y24 modeled its project strategy after blast.io? I doubt it was a good airdrop they just capitalized on the opportunity of something similar done by blast.io but blast.io is much better than y24.

I'm not sure about the airdrop you mentioned y24. If you have doubts then avoid it rather than getting into trouble later you were scammed.
Because what I know is that this project is not very well known, there are no unique features except for copying from blast.io.

According to my experience is that market condition are very good and this time many projects announced there Airdrop and they give there users a good profit but many Airdrop are scam and they say to invest then they scam !!
Suddenly many Airdrop are give a good profit many are ongoing like manta etc first check the Airdrop quality there supporters then invest if anyone invest in fresh projects so many chance is that they scam there users ..

I think so. There are another method of airdrop which we need to have some balance in our wallet to be eligible recieving airdrop but if they want deposit? I think it's not good

Quote from: bangjoe on December 29, 2023, 12:55:17 PM

because it shows being in BNB, you need to see whether Binancelabs supports this project or not, usually projects that are supported by binancelabs will provide good benefits to each contributor, and what I'm afraid of on projects like this is that even though you get their tokens from APY, but if it doesn't have a decent selling price on the token sale it will just be a waste of time.

But the network is pretty good, although only a few networks can integrate, but I will try it risking my 0.1 BNB to try it.

Then? what is your result? can you give us some proof?

I thought about it and rethought it, is it worth risking my BNB to try this event from people who don't have a good reputation on the forum at all, or he contributed here for not a long time (newbie). so that night I undid my intention to risk my BNB.

yes even though the amount is not much, but I think it's better to play in the current SOL ecosystem which is experiencing much better adoption and I have more references to projects that are more trustworthy, rather than dabbling in things like this. I remember using events like this in the past, but most of my deposits could not be withdrawn and with many excuses I ended up losing my money.

Come on guys, you don't have to make new threads about this project. There's 2 that I've already seen that talks about this y24. I won't be surprised if you get banned because of your repetitive threads that tackles with the same project/topic. I've already told you that you shouldn't do it and stick to the first thread that you have made.

Quote from: batang_bitcoin on December 29, 2023, 05:56:05 AM

Bro, you've made this thread already and you've made another one which is this thread: Is participating in an airdrop a wise choice?
And the content of it is also the same as this thread of yours. You don't need to make a new one for people to just discuss some other topics over the thread you've made but has the same project on it. I'd like to give you a reminder about one forum rule about making the same threads.

First things first, I doubt that your question isn't genuine and it's just a promotional gimmick that you are using to promote the project in the forum by creating this thread and the whole story and stuff. I can be wrong though which is why I said I have a doubt and it's not guaranteed.

Coming back to the topic, if you ask me personally, I would never have my money stuck for a whole year or something just to get some airdrop unless I have the same asset they are asking for in my wallet which is idle and I'm not using it or trading it for now and only if I trust the website or service.

A new project can have both, a lot of potential profit and a lot of unrealized risks, and they might say that there is more reward when there is more risk, however, I feel that a person should always take only calculated risks so that they don't lose a lot of money while trying out a platform or a project.

I would not participate, I consider BNB chain to be of shitcoin/scammers chain, Blast is getting hype because it's backed by Paradigm, many of Paradigm backed projects did retrospective airdrop so people are expecting same with Blast.

Y24 has nothing sort of like that.

There are so many mining apps we can use and mine tokens so we can benefit when the project finally got listed.
Not all airdrops are scam but we need to be very careful when we want to do airdrop because some are just waste of time. We need to invest our time in something meaningful so that we don't end up losing and doing something that would not profits us in the Crypto market. Airdrops and bounty tend to one of the ways we can earn from the market especially after we have claimed the tokens we worked for.
