I saw in my social media feeds that there's a lot of people now posting about free cryptocurrency that needed of kyc before you get a penny money. This people not think if it's will good to them to give their identity in any site for just penny money. Yeah it's free but your identity will be possible to use in any harmful doings.

Whats your thoughts about this?
If the identity is worth penny, send it. lol
I actually saw a lot of people who did this (Probably the countries where the USD is worthy).

I don't see a reason why users should exchange their personal data for such kind of reward either huge or small. Everything is all about risk in the Crypto space if you feel you want to give out your personal data for exchange of your airdrop or bounty token or even purchasing of ico's online then it should be at such user risk. Although those parties involved would be putting out some agreements that users details are safe and others but have you thought about the fact that nothing is hideous online if only it doesn't want to found?. Investors and hunters need to be careful while giving out their kyc document. KYC is legal but dangerous.

If it is necessary to rate the legalization of the token holder in more than specified amount. I agree to that, but for small holders - it will not affect their long-term Tokenomic system, this does not seem right on target. And now Kyc is even more complicated because it involves identity through biometric data. For just penny money, this should not be needed, but it is indeed useful to minimize forgery of identity which is considered too easy.

I don’t understand why to transfer personal data to the network for tokens of a dubious project. Which will probably cost a penny. I'd rather buy tokens on the stock exchange without KYC.

I don’t understand why anyone would require a KYC check for those to whom they distribute their several tokens for free. This is nonsense on the verge of absurdity. In my opinion, this has long since surpassed common sense. In any case, it is impossible to explain such actions with the help of logic, the most logical is that people who give their few tokens hunt for the confidential data of others.

If they are hungry for those pennies for the exchange of their identities, there are too things that's on my mind.

  • they don't own the identity
  • they are desperate

It's not worth it to exchange your any ID just for those airdrops or free cryptocurrencies that they offer. I always avoid those kind of posts and ignore people them on social medias.


Then this could be a real big problem. If it is really proven that this certain people uses other person's identity then whoever owns the personal information is  currently at risk.

This is quite not possible tho to trick or give other person's info since if we do talk about KYC protocol it requires users to upload or scan their government's valid ID.


If you are avoiding them I am doing differently, I usually tell them to stop it or you might become a target of identity thief it is better to still do something and warn any possible victims

Almost for every bounty and airdrop they want KYC. It's not worth KYC for penny money. When we imagine what they can do with our identity data, it is possible to big problems. In addition not only the identification is requested, but  the address documents, telephone and so on. as.  So, all that's needed for what? KYC may be only be for investors, never for bounty rewards.
It is true that the existence of KYC can provide a solution to avoid bounty campaign and airdrop participants so that they do not cheat so that the distribution of bounty campaigns becomes more fair. but from that condition it can also make your identity dangerous because they certainly know your privacy.

Unfortunately most of the bounty now requires KYC.
And because of this, those bounty hunters who really want to earn money are force to comply without anymore thinking that they are risking
their identity by giving their real information. Things should change, if a certain exchange that is reputable would require, then maybe that is acceptable.

its not pennny that you will be earning on an airdrop/bounty especially if they will require a kyc  . i stumbled upon different legit bounties and they are all promising but requires a kyc . i bet they are all worth it but the problem is that i cant do a kyc because kyc seems strict when it comes to id  requirements . while i have joined alot of projects before without kyc's and i dont earn even penny on them because they dont have a value  . the coins dont get listed on an exchange  . shocks ,

yes maybe they already know the risks they will face but I guess they also won't think too much about it. They might think "Who will use identity for criminal matters especially in international class?"

I think the problem is when you used your identity to your own country's project. Our own people often to missused it

I don’t participate on any free token ads because i know its just a waste of time, and its too risky to give your personal identity for a no value token. I also believe on hard work so if you want to have more money then you have to work on it, don’t depend on any free in this cryptoworld the best money can be earn through hard work.

It's only worth doing KYC for good bounties and for signing up on good quality exchanges like coinbase. Otherwise, giving up your ID for a few pennies is not worth the risk, considering they can sell it on the black market to drug dealers or worse

they do KYC using false identities. they do simply by collecting the penny with the reveral or multiple account method. the whole penny if collected will be many. some of them are actually scaming fake identties. so guess who is really stupid now.
or they were just a kids who are searching penny for snacks. they can use anyone's identity without thinking about the impact.

Even with bounty program that has a higher reward at stake, it sometimes frustrating and uncomfortable going through KYC verification and how much for airdrops. It boils down to how is conscious about his/her private personal information.

It is not a wise move but there are people who really need that penny.
I am against it though. I want my privacy to be kept as always and that is why I chose crypto currencies as my money.

It will be their problem someday.
It can be used for bounty joining and used their profile as if it is really them.

I would rather work in a company than scatter my information in the internet.

A lot of projects are like that, they pay pennies for the airdrop. But as for the KYC, doing that for a worthless amount is never worth it, you're wasting your time and taking risk at the same time. And there are some of them that will not pay you for the airdrop and they will steal the info you've given to them. So, just be skipping any one that requires KYC.

That's right, giving your personal data just for a penny is a bit too risky for yourself. It's better to avoid this kind of transactions to prevent exposing your personal identity unless it's worth the return for the risk.

I always thought bitcoin and cryptocurrencies are originated to be anonymous, which are their main advantages in addition to speed. Unfortunately, soon that will be controlled the same way bankster control the rest of society.

Value your information more than the penny you will get.

If you are willing to follow the KYC and give your personal information, you might be surprise in the future that your name are attached with some crime or a possible illegal activities. We have to be smart and careful, we like easy money but we should carefully analyze the risk on giving our information.
