Topic: What are AirDrops exactly? - page 3. (Read 377 times)
For me, airdrops are a gimmick to attract more people and make more hype around the project. It's the most common and cheapest way, that is why many lousy projects do airdrops... People take part in them and then collect the number of useless coins in their wallets. I take part in the airdrops of only very promising projects.
Attracting a disinterested audience, lowering product value, a risk of falling victim to scammers and a desperate measure for ICOs hit by the crypto witch-hunt on social media.

Airdrops are free giveaways of a certain coin or token, they are common in ICOs as you mentioned, they mostly done to promote and market the ICO by luring in many people to sign up for the airdrop, unlike bounties which require to do tasks so as to get paid, airdrops require simple or no task, most airdrops only need you to fill the form and submit

They can be that, or they can be useless tokens used be scammers. Or they can be good coins like Byteball, Bitcore, and DeepOnion that offer airdrops. That is how they can be adminstered, although every group has a different requirement. Airdrop in the purest form is filling out information and getting coins or tokens. This is the least profitable though and that is why scammers use that method on tokens. It is easy and cheap and people will get involved if they get free tokens. Better airdrops in my opinion are in the form of coins, and they give you a % based on how much you are hodling. How to have an airdrops and where does the airdrops go?

If we need to do a task then it is not an airdrop but rather a bounty payment for the task they had given us. Most of us knows what's free means, it is just enlisting the account and get free token from the owner of the project. Anyway, it is a marketing strategy to spread news about the project. Most bounty were disguised as Airdrop but the fact is that they are actually a task and will be paid with the tokem. I also believe that airdrop is synonym to giveaway.
It literally means what it is. They "airdrop" their coins/tokens to people who sort of sign up. Most of the time you just need to prove ownership of a bitcoin wallet and they give you a percentage depending on how much BTC you hold on that specific wallet. To prove ownership, you send them a specific amount of BTC or you can sign a message using your wallet[1] instead if you don't want to spend your BTC.

I heard it was "FREE" tokens that are given out?
Why would someone issue free tokens? What would be the core use in this? Can you give me an example in a normal ICO or presale or whatever that one could involve using airdrops, and would it make the sale more attractive?
I see a lot of ICO's doing AirDrops, or they say AirDrops are finished etc. Can someone give me an exact description and an example of what an AirDrop is exactly? What is the purpose of it during an ICO? Thanks!
Just fill the form and sign up for that and follow all the rules or i mean you answer what it says after they give you a free token that you can buy it in different types of crypto currency that can be money.

Most airdrops now are ERC20 tokens thus ETH address are often being asked.[1] https://medium.com/@TenX/mycelium-how-to-sign-a-message-with-a-bitcoin-address-87afdd0a5a0e
Most of them require you to follow their social media pages, tweet or retweet something and that's it.
There are very rare good airdrops, most of them are dusts (as what everyone is saying). I have joined a 200$ airdrop in the past. Quite fine for me.
Airdrop is just a small amount from the total supply of a project.They are giving me this free in return you will follow their twitter and join the telegram.In this case you help them to build a community that will support their project during crowdsale.Having a big community can attract investors to participate during crowdsale.So in short Airdrop is just a way of marketing strategy.
