One of my airdrop tokens have raisen more than 500% after 3 month...so,it' difficult question...

I really think it is better to wait. Sometimes you get paid and forget and are pleasantly surprised with a good return. This happens most of the time within months after receiving the tokens. I don't sell when I first receive them if it is not much money or I believe it can become more valuable.

I am also waiting to sell for a very simple set of reasons. First, I am lazy, and the few bucks of tens of bucks that I would get from an airdrop are not worth the effort to run to sell them on Ether Delta, which is a pain in the ass to use. Second: the real win you have when among 99& of airdropped shitcoins you happen to get also an unexpected gem which however will need time to grow its value. So, better wait.
BTW which is the token which you mention has risen more than 500% in 3 months?

most of coins from airdrop are shitcoin . i prefer to sell that coins fastly when i receive it. this is a way to get profit. if i hold that coin long term, iam worried the price of that coin will be zero. it is just my opinion friend.  Grin

But sometimes most airdrop coin can be boom in the market I have a lot of airdrop coin and I dont want to sell them all because the price now are so cheap waiting for some big pump up or new exchange site.
Its better to read the project roadmap if you notice that the project developer are seriously to improve there project its better to hold your coin and waiting for some big event happen.

If it isn't really worth anything it doesn't hurt to just hold on to them.

Guys, can you share with your statistics of air drops? If it is possible, can you provide numbers? How much did you get from air drops (in USD for example) ? Which air drops?
I have never taken a part in air drop campaigns, so I want to know if it is worthy to join such campaigns and to spend time on it. As I see there are lots of topics about such coins that is why I become interested in them so much. The main thing I know according to your posts is that you do not need to hold such coins, it is better to sell them instantly. Am I right?
Thank you in advance

Unless you have a serious understanding of the potential of the project, most people will sell it immediately after receiving the airdrop. However, since it is free, even if the price of the coin is zero, it is not a pity. Some of the airdrop coins have a high price in a few years. Grin

Hello,
Yesterday I saw some increase in my total estimated token value, and today it dropped significantly.
It appears that a lot of people are selling their airdropped tokens as soon as they get them.
I have not sold a single token from airdrops, and with the exception of some them, they seem to be mostly losing value in time.
Should I do the same or hodl hoping that some of them may increase in value, closing the gap I lose in the process?
If the project has a good technology and good developers and you are confident that this project will achieve something in the future,i suggest you hold these tokens until it reached some value in exchanges,bounty hunters are doing this because they arent good at waiting they want to get fast profits from the airdrops and bounties and thats wrong because it can give them x1000 or more in the future by holding just few months or atleast a year.

Even for very good coins which have very good team and project, when they enter exchange people who got from airdrop sell their coins immediately and dump. I think better idea is to sell and buy again. But if the coin listed in a big exchange such as Binance holding can be a good idea. Because even in one mont it can make 5X.

It depends on the coin you are in. Most airdrop are from shit coins trying to get a quick buck in etherdelta, but fortunately there are legit ones. You just have to DYOR to decide whether to hold or not. There have been a number of XXX coin ETH version of coins going out lately and obviously they're all shit coins (Etherreum Dark, Blue really??), but there are also legit ones like DeepOnion. They are on round 16 out of 40 and the airdrop rules have changed so far to help accomodate new entrants. The previous system for airdrop participants requires around 10 posts/ week to help promote the coin but right now it was dropped to 5, and the application process was re-worked so that it's easier to join. It's a pretty good coin with a large and solid community, great developers and user interaction and most of all an outstanding product. It's geared towards privacy (which is a must in today's government tracking efforts) and a whole lot mroe of features for a secure transaction in the blockchain. I suggest you check them out and decide for yourself. I'm personally rooting for them to be one of the top tier coins in the privacy sector in the years to come.

Some airdrop are useless coin with no future, so i use to sell them at their first pump because after that they will start to die, so I take an easy little gain and I go on a new airdrop, others are serious project and I decided to hold them till death, they are free so I will never be in loss. Now I hope I will receive my ethlend airdrop tomorrow, seems a nice coin I would love to hodl

As for me, Yes you should. airdrop tokens are just free so i think that the value will decrease further as the time goe's by because people are only interested in the coin because its free and to profit a lot then we should sell it as earlier as they give to us.

Blue,E-Cash and other tokens today are worth a lot of eth. at the beginning there was only cent. Today you get many dollars. There is a risk of selling them and also a risk to hodl them . You can not lose anything because everything was free. you can only win

I don't think it's right to do that. You're not even giving the project a chance to flourish before you sell their tokens. Just recently signed up for Polymath's airdrop and plan on holding onto it for as long as I can.

For me its your decision  If you want to sell your token or you can hold until you want but for me if ever I have chance to get airdrop token and the value is high i can sell half and i can hold

First thing you should do, is study the project and check if they have anything useful going on and if their usecase is essential to daily living then hold onto it and take profits when necessary. I learnt this from my Blue airdrop tokens.

I was a participant of a couple airdrops early this year and im not in need to grab a quick cash and if i would do and dump these coins like half a year ago i would loose some much money. If i see the project is good i hodl if not i try to sell at ATH.

If you are not so sure about what you should do with free coins then its best to maybe sell between 30-70% of these when you get them and hold the rest for few months.
