thats not good man for me. i mean, airdrop for little coin, you put your personal information just for a little coin? its not comparable with your personal information except they give you one bitcoin.
there are many people join for signature campaign. no ann about kyc. but and the end of dates, after several month, they announce if you need pass kyc for their payment. many people leave because they never want share their identity. this is signature, moreover just airdrop

I advise you to avoid airdrop who require to pass the KYC because it usually means that the project is going to deceive you. Almost always it is. Do not search for your documents. Scammers want to take them away from you and therefore demand to pass a KYC in airdrop.
I dont like airdrops with kyc. They are not actually giving good amount of token . Why we need to give our personal informations to these guys. That is really bad for our rights and safety.Same time i think icos shouldnt want kyc docs from us. We are only investing 1 k 2k dollar value. We are not investing 10 millin dollar.
I don't think KYC for airdrops offered is fair for those who joined. Some ICO with airdropping is not also fine to get KYC for tokens worth almost nothing or a burger meal is not really fine. I observed it in some ICOs with airdrops that even with giveaways like that so small needs KYC? Don't fall for it guys, not worth it.
Definitely I don't fall for a KYC AirDrops I give a big space to it, my information is very important to me I can't just go flying it out just because of AirDrops Newbies be wise and never fall for it. This is a very good information to everyone.
What these scammers do is that they create a fake token and they will start to airdrop and asks for KYC and as soon as they have date they will sell it to thieves.
Are you sure? I want to research about icoengine.netIcoengine.net is KYC providing for any ico and airdrop on Eidoo Wallet, can you research too about that?

I agreed, almost in my country they was cheating in any airdrop (include kyc required). Keep safe your identity data!! and I suggest to anyone don't pass the kyc in any airdrop for new project!I'm from Indonesia
Providing KYC for Airdrops is not worth it, most of such Airdrops end up stealing identities of their participants.

I've met several airdrop which asked me to provide KYC, and some of the tokens reward that I should got were worth lower than $10 and some didn't have actual prices until now.

I also think that KYC for airdrops is necessary because airdrop is like a freebies. So I don't want to share my identity for just $20-30 from airdrops.
if for an airdrop I never try to folloew it if I ask KYC, but other things with some bounty programs from IOO ... I usually check first whether it is feasible or not ...for give my id

KYC for Airdrop of course No very Big No. I will never give anyone my ID for a little penny of money
There is no reason why an ICO required KYC to airdrop participant, usually they is a fraud in this internet

I also agree that KYC is not needed for airdrop since majority of airdrops have little to no value at all. Also, right now, many airdrops are either scam or just collecting personal data and then you either not receive airdrop or the token you will have have almost no value unless you get lucky and participate to a really good airdrop which is like 50:1 ratio.
For me, I only join airdrops that will ask me to follow social media and retweet/repost and that's all. I don't participate if it ask me personal info.

Before I likely would have said that it was worth it, but this time around, especially after I saw what these people were doing by selling other people’s information on the dark web, I don’t think it is worth it. Never do KYC for any ICO that is not worth it. All they do is trying to buy people for a cheap price and collect their information and after that they will go to the dark web and sell them for a bug amount of money.
Agree with you, some lay people follow airdrop which requires KYC even though it is very dangerous to his personal data. after all, most airdrops that require KYC do not necessarily have a value in the market, even many who do not enter the exchange. so it's useless to follow the airdrop like that.
For me i will not provide my identification for a small amount we all know that airdops are ranging between $1-$10 not worth for my identification
Exactly my point of view
Airdrop tokens are always worth nothing because it’s even difficult to sell them and get profits
They are not worth risking personal information that could be sold on black markets to make matters worse
Any Airdrop program that needs KYC I delete them asap
Well, KYC on airdrops or giveaways tells me only one thing: SCAM - they will surely be selling the data !
There are several reasons why I think there is no need for KYC on bounties and airdrops, and several more why I think we shouldn't do it.
Some projects disrespect hunters so much that they only inform about KYC at the end.... so when I join any project I always ask first... I've even had a case where a supposedly privacy coin asked for KYC...
There is no money involved and the token/coin quantities are relatively low for bounties and airdrops, so there is no clear need to KYC on these cases...
On the other hand I am amazed with the amount of hunters that share their ID around on dozens of projects... people might not know the importance of an ID and what you can do with it... with all the cybersecurity problems the world is facing today it is amazing that people do this...
cheers

Not only that I believe that most of ICO that require KYC sell their bounty hunters and investors data don't need that much data, but also I believe some of them are founded just to collect personal information of people (and sell it).
Even if they do not sell personal data (which I doubt), it is questionable if they store collected personal data on secure system. There is possibility that they store sensitive personal data on computers that can be easily hacked, or maybe they don't control who access that data, so maybe employee can copy that data and sell it.
The system of storing data should be audited by independent auditor to guarantee that personal data is stored. And even then I wouldn't be comfortable knowing that my personal data is stored on someone else's computer.
no . for it is not necessary at all because there are many more scammers in them ... and then you will wonder where your data will go.
To be honest, I don't really understand the idea behind the KYC that applied for the airdrop.
It doesn't seems like everyone that join the air drop is purchasing the coins and the coins that we get from airdrop isn't that much.

KYC would be good if airdrops gave at least $10-20. with such amount you can trade and withdraw. with less amount it just waste of time and giving your confidential information to third-parties.
