So, first off. What is an airdrop?
A cryptocurrency airdrop is when a blockchain project distributes free tokens or coins to the crypto community to bring attention to their project.
To receive a cryptocurrency airdrop, typically the only requirement is that you have coins from the relevant currency in your wallet. Examples of this format of an airdrop are: BitcoinCash, Byteball, Stellar Lumens, or OmiseGo. These airdrops required you to prove you were the owner of the Bitcoin or Ethereum at a "certain time or snapshot of the blockchain".
Other smaller airdrops, which have become much more popular recently are when a cryptocurrency project distributes a predetermined amount of tokens to the community who signs up for the airdrop. Sometimes these need social media tasks whether it be follow them on different social media sites like FB, TWTR, TG, etc. As of recently, some of them require KYC (Know Your Customer) uploaded to receive them. Personally I never participate in these because I don't trust anyone asking for KYC for just an airdrop- it's ridiculous in my opinion.
To get started up on getting airdrops you will need some things to get started off:
1. Telegram account
2. Twitter/Facebook Account
3. BTT account (obviously you already have that!)
4. MEW or Metamask wallet to store ERC-20 tokens. - a link for metamask can be found here:
