Those participating in airdrops most especially newbies should have it mind that not all airdrops payments are guaranteed and even those that eventually pays might still not get listed.
I have been participating in airdrops for sometime now and I have received several coins and token and not all of them are tradable.
Though I have been lucky enough to get some decent amount from airdrop but it only happens once in a blue moon.
So if you're thinking of joining an airdrop then don't expect too much from it because if you do you'll only end up been disappointed.
Most airdrops are not as productive as they used to be. very rarely do I find an airdrop that can pay hunters up to $ 100 or not even reach $ 50. it also depends on the type of airdrop and the success of the project itself.I have been participating in airdrops for sometime now and I have received several coins and token and not all of them are tradable.

Several types of airdrops, such as airdrops for share assignments on social media, will get very small rewards and in my opinion, they are no longer worth it.
Some of the most popular airdrops right now are the Running Node incentive airdrops, but require VPS capital or a high-spec computer to run Nodes on projects that do tesnet.

For the airdrops that are legit, I think one of the reason on why they require a KYC is to prevent abusers because it is easy for someone to create multiple accounts and enroll on the same airdrop over and over again which are not right. Other people who are fair are sometimes not accommodated anymore because of them.
One deterrent is implementing KYC, but are poachers willing to give up their personal information just for an obscure airdrop? of course, I will never do it, unless the project is really good and has good potential for the future. So it is necessary to do research beforehand to find out the potential of the project. Many successful projects in the past that provided lots of rewards didn't apply KYC, even though the rules that were given were very easy. Unlike now, the rules are getting more difficult and the rewards are also getting smaller. Most airdrops also limit how many participants can take part, so that the rewards can be distributed in the same amount and not too small.
