Video kyc is ridiculous, i don't see why any country needs such strict standards. Some require a selfie with the ID card, and even that is extreme. It's not like they are offering thousands of dollars. I will not participate with such strict kyc requirements

Not a joke... well, they didn't mean it as one anyway.

But yeah, a huge joke to cryptocurrency. There are better ways to prevent gaming of the system, really, or didn't blockchain teach them a thing or two about privacy?

Would I sell my identity to a company I know only wants to make profit? Maybe for a lot of money, maybe. But not $25 and not for XLM. I think less on Lumens for partnering with them like this, I don't know it feels bad to me.

My grandma and grandpa will join and register this XLM airdrop and will make the verification because $25 is a big money for retired people in Russia, unfortunately. Russia has a low standard of living out of Moscow now.

I think this is a sales strategy. As we know, currently the market price is can't possible to enter. For this reason, coin developers have to turn their brains to survive in the market.
one of them gave airdrop, so investors remained on the Xlm coin. of course this good opportunity will not be wasted by investors.

I've heard this airdrop yesterday from telegram channel, I though it's just a scam, so I don't have click the link, look like it's a big airdrop, but each person only get 100 XLM ($25) and we need to pass the kyc application, do you think it's really worth it?

Stellar seemed to me as a nice project with a good future. But now I saw that ridiculous airdrop with video KYC Grin
For me it discredits the project and from side seems funny.
what is your opinion?
Well, if someone actually wants to do a kyc for 25 dollars, then I don't even know why they're in crypto. It's a great way to distinguish between the people who understand what's happening in crypto world and why we need it and the people who are clueless and here just for the bandwagon. I had an opinion about stellar that it's better than ripple, but this made me question my beliefs. Get that garbage out of here...

irstly, it is not Stellar who conducts an airdrop, but a blockchain wallet. They just hand out this coin. Secondly, this is their decision, and it’s clear that they don’t have to see multi-accounts in their airdrop.

It's not a real airdrop. They are just buying information. A lot of companies do this, for example, N26, Revolut gave free $$ if u signed up and did KYC. In my optinion it's not worth selling your data for $25 worth of XLM.

Learn more about this airdrop by watching video by Altcoin Buzz:

I received an offer like this from blockchain.com seems legit though I lost some XLM when I sent to one exchange but forgot to fill the memo because I have no idea what to choose and it did not arrive on that exchange and this is because of the memo issue, any similar incidents like this, anyway it's just $10 worth of XLM.
I once had similar experience when i wanted to send my XLM to OTCBTC. It was a painful experience, because that was all o had at that time. I expected it to arrive on the exchange, by it was all like a dream. After several hours of waiting, i had to contact the admin and i was told i did not fill in the memo ID to accompany my transaction. I as given an option of paying some charges, but the funny thing was that, what i sent there was not even upto the charges. So, that was how i lost it.
I also recieved a mail from blockchain, so the airdrop is legit.

I heard about this airdrop, but did not know that it would require kyc Shocked And here it turns out that not just documents are required, but also a video verification ... I don’t think there are many people who want to do this for such a small amount of money. Personally, I avoid campaigns where kyc is required and plan to stick to it in the future for my own safety.

I see this airdrop not like airdrop but like "Sell your KYC now for $25 in XLM someday in the future". I wonder how many fools would fall for that? Is this a census of idiots?

It is easier to just ignore this kind of way. Many of us hated that KYC procedure because it makes us vulneravle to attacks.
Better just let it go. Stop being greedy for money just because they are saying it is a million dollar worth of coin.
Bitcoin is a million dollar coin and yet doesnt need those type of information to be leaked.

I guess they are trying to attack newbies with this. Better just warn them before going through those type of application. Or we will be seeing threads of hacks again.

what? really? XLM airdrop needs video KYC? lol, stellar is a good coin, but why they need video KYC?, it seem the airdrops is level up, I don't even join an airdrop that needs Identity Card to be qualified, well good luck those who pass their video KYC.
Perhaps this is necessary in order to weed out the cheaters.
But i think people who have never heard about cryptocurrency will not do a KYC...
Yeah, part of it is to make sure that the airdrops won't be abused, but in a wide perceptions I guess giving up your personal identity by completing kyc is not a good thing to do just by receiving small amounts of rewards, still not the concept of crypto as mentioned by most people around, it will be taken by those bounty hunters who already got experience giving their identity and willing to take the risk.

This is a good project and they are creating the largest airdrop in the history of crypto. And of course KYC is needed to avoid the cheater, you are here to say that XLM is a bullshit project. You are angry because you cant cheat from their airdrop ?

This procedure is not required. Only those who want to take part in airdrop. For those who are not interested can still use their Blockchain Wallet without verifying. A strange idea, trying to attract newcomers to the world of the blockchain, while demanding their personal data.
It's even worst than try give the participant a mandatory to complete the KYC through verification data. This airdrop has been forced anyone that interested with a few bucks to do KYC through online video. This is a big joke in the crypto history and how this is a really bad thing to do.
