I came across your post searching for the same terms. So, recently I've been scouring the web for airdrops and bounties. I'm really actually enjoying learning about the new [Suspicious link removed]panies and I've generated over 100 referral links in a short time. I figured it would be a good idea to compile them to share with friends and eventually put together this Steemit post and telegram channel.
Crypto Referrals and Airdrop Links:

https://t.me/mendocryptoairdropsSo far, I have a really limited following on Steemit and Telegram... like basically nobody. Not very many of my organic audience is involved in crypto. So, I'm thinking there will be some facebook groups and subthreads where referral links are permitted, but in general it's really hard not to come across as a total spammer. I mean, the real question here is, "what's the difference between an enthusiastic sincere community member's posts and those of a spammer?" Because you can basically engage communities out of sincere interest and desire to share, and be totally misunderstood. Ultimately, I think it will be necessary to make your referral links sort of an afterthought, you know? Like, it's there in your signature on your posts and people can scope it out if they like what you're saying about something else. That's how I would try to police things if I were the admins, but I haven't really read all of the guidelines on this forum yet and I have already earned myself a little ip ban from them which cost me a few precious Satoshis! Just my 2c.
Usually I don't like seeing old threads like these being bumped, but in this case it's still pretty relevant.
I've also been using Steemit to promote some referral links, but I don't do it by spamming.
I try to write good articles and post 1 promotional banner with referral link under every article I write.
This works pretty good and I've gotten quite a few referrals on different websites. Though gambling does not tend to be that popular on Steemit.
You'd do better by promoting other things, ICO's perhaps?
I've got 400 followers on Steemit, with my articles averaging around 10 - 15 USD.
