Hey guys what is it altcoin airdrop? I tried to google it but didnt find anything fulfilling

Airdrop is literally what the word means: coins dropping from up above :P

Some projects decide to give out coins to users to spread awareness and promote their projects. When you get a coin you'll likely look into it and maybe end up buying more.

Sorry mate but that's exactly what they're expecting from the idiots to do, once you even think about buying a token with no real community and no

Use, airdrop tokens are the definitions of assholes wide enough to cause them not working and make them to try these new methods of scamming.

Have you seen yoshit and their list of coins? now we have a new scam eBtc. only a retard thinks about buying eBtc. they own the entire supply but

You beggars always want something free, air is free too you should collect air or if someone is selling air you should buy air?

Im sorry you're not very bright, mate. Where were you when OMG did an airdrop last month? Get off your high horse and stop assuming everyone is as incapable and short sighted as you are. Cant even type a proper 4-line paragraph, that's sad.

what was the OMG airdrop about?? OMG WAS GIVING OMG TOKENS?

Don't worry, it wasn't a large amount. Essentially anyone holding ethereum at the time they took a snapshot (sometime in July I believe) received some OMG in their wallet. The airdrop was last month. The ethereum should have been in a wallet like myetherwallet or mist at that time and not on an exchange.

Airdrops = only the best thing ever!
Or was that a sarcastic question?

Do not search for "altcoin airdrop" through Google. If you also type in the word airdrop alone, what comes out is the airdrop that is relation to Apple Mac. So I advice you to input Cryptocurrency Airdrop or simply crypto airdrop. I guess that would be good enough for Google to show you the exact pages.

Why do you think that they own entire supply? Their smart contract locked up to 21 million like in Bitcoin and they airdropped more than 90%+

Why is it so obivous to you as a scam?

wow, that guy made me feel guilty for liking and participating in airdrops and breathing air.  I used to scuba dive.  Had oxygen tanks.  Guess at one point I believed in air enough to buy and store some.  LOL

An airdrop is when the team of a coin "gives away" free coins. This is to bring awareness to the project, and also create hype for it. Sometimes you might have to wear the signature of the coin and post in order to get the coins. It all depends on the project.

Too bad the good airdrops now have to suffer because of the recent wave of e-coin airdrops.

Are you 100% sure that airdrops were all scams? Haha, and you even have the guts to use the word idiot. ;D
But na na, I don't care coz it's free. Beggars cant be choosers, right? ;D

So, breath some air people is better !

Altcoin airdrop are free coins given by developers for exposure purposes. They do this so that people will look more into it. If they see that the coin has value then they would eventually buy it. Some airdrops are given to people who has a balance of a certain coin then they would give the same amount of the airdrop coin to you. There are airdrop coins that has no true value but would increase in price when it hit the exchanges because of the hype but would eventually lose its value so more often than not, when airdrop coins hit the exchanges, people rush to sell the coins but there are those who waited thus getting additional value to their coins.

And there are doing airdrop even before the Pre-ICO correct? So initially, you don't know if the project will become a success as well? But it's gaining traction among community member because unlike signature campaigns even newbie or jr member can participant? Sorry I'm been reading about Air Drop but I haven't join one. But there are some saying that is very rewarding while other didn't get their free tokens though.  So its really difficult to join or not.

Any of airdrop that is targeted towards a local population is going to be difficult and costly to pull off because there is no way to easily verify people's identity. In my opinion, the creator of these coins are using "airdrops" to build up hype and don't really have any practical way of handling the airdrop.

Airdrop means you will get some free coins if you can meet some requirements, for example, if you have some ETH on your wallet, you can get some free OMG a free weeks ago. Am I right?

Money still don't grow on trees but now they fall from the sky.

Same here. I want also to fully understand how it works. Is there a primer to this in the forum? thanks!

Airdrop is when some projects decide to give out coins to users to spread awareness and promote their projects.

You could say Airdop is giving coins to potential users and a service can gain more value if the people use it.

yeah, i also search the word airdrop on google before but the results are mostly apple or iphones application which was also called airdrop lol. by the way @op airdrop means free giveaway of tokens/coins from an ico. most airdrops are free but there are some that requires you to pay a specific amount or donation to avoid spam and multiple claims for some people. although most tokens/coins from the airdrop are useless and do not have a real value.

Maybe end up buying more. Maybe some people do that but for me, i got airdrop and if there is a market then i will sell it all without no left.
I think better do that than buying more.

But of course before selling it all in the market, you have yk make sure that the price is right. Maybe you'll regret in the future because you sell it in a low price. You have to apply patience. Holding it for long will give you big amount of profit. It doesn't mean it's in the market, you'll sell it right away. Wait for the right time.

Airdrop is free coins given by a project team free of charge just by filling a form and getting their wallet. Is a marketing strategy for most project willing to distribute their coins .

Altcoin airdrop are free coin given by developers for exposure purposes.Do you know that there are some crypto coins that are doing airdrops to owners of Bitcoin? This means that if you are holding BTC in a wallet that allows.you can get free money in the form of crypto coins. Transaction from a Bitcoin wallet is fine as confirmation, but if they ask for a private key or wallet file or some sensitive data like that, then just avoid them!.

Airdrop is a way by which dev of coins or tokens attract more and more people, users or investor by giving them their coins or tokens for free. And expand their community and it is just a really good marketing strategy. It's actually a symbiotic relationship between the dev and the people as the dev is getting profit as his project might gain attention and popularity where as people get free coins. What more can we ask for. ;D

I just have to say, I also posted this in another thread, I used to use Airdropalert.com and they made a change now where they removed how old the airdrop is and messed up the entire order of the airdrops in their list, the change is simply terrible. I really hope they'll change it back soon, the site is barely usable like that.

All of the earlier entries look correct. But if you want to check it out, I've got airdrop defined in my dictionary at

https://decryptionary.com/dictionary/airdrop/ (https://decryptionary.com/dictionary/airdrop/)

Most airdrop coins are scam to be honest. There are no real development or real world use case for the coin. I would say don't go for the airdrop just because they are free. I suspect most use it to mine for personal data or email.

the electronic dollar dev team is proposing airdrop based on mining only without any operation.  there is also a bounty program for who is joining the development phase. perhaps i'm completely wrong , but I think this is a sign of i fair and honest intent.

as I know, airdrop is a free coin distributed by ico project. but I still hesitate and do not understand, what exactly is the purpose of the airdrop? Anyone knows?

Airdrop literally can be said to be "fall from above with out stress". But when it comes to alternate coin, Airdrop, is referred to as a bonus or financial  incentives (token distribution) offer by the holders of various blockchain cryptocurrency to facilitate the campaign of their project to gain more audience or popularity in media. these can be done through creating contents about the goals such project tends to achieves that is of great benefit to the people and the global economy.

airdrop is a free tokens giveaway for some activities (different for every project)

Airdrop is an event in cryptoworld that means a certain token is being given to crypto users for project promotion. In return, the participant will make a ceratin task in exchange for the airdrop for the benefit of the project.

The distribution of coins (tokens) to early adopters FOR FREE.. 8)

Airdrop is a free token that promotes their project by doing a simple task. Airdrop can be profitable and sometimes it is just for collections. They are doing airdrops because they want to make a face into the community. It is a marketing strategy that can attract people to invest in the project that is made by developers. Just be careful because some of it are scam and it will just take your time doing their task.

I know what airdrop is, but I do not know how to explain it.
to my knowledge only coins free. hehehe  ;D

Actually, I think most of them are rubbish. Of course not all

airdrop? maybe a gift given to people or groups when it works well and true and it will be delegated with many people it may be my understanding

Well put. These are my thoughts exactly. Initially, I was hesitant about joining airdrops in this forum due to the plethora of scam cases that I had been hearing about on a regular basis, but decided to try my luck just in case. It was totally worth it at the end of the day and I earned huge profits which is why I feel that airdrops do indeed benefit both the developers who are giving them away as well as the people who are receiving them. We must be cautious though and not give away our private keys and not download phishy wallets.

airdrop is  it is free token for all if you apply on their airdrop form sir, then a few days later you will recieve your token  that you sign the form

Altcoin airdrop is like token giveaways.

airdrop I think is the token free, such as rain down from the Sky but now many airdrop asking contribution and I am not sure with it, whether to success in the market later.

The airdrop is a free token or coin giveaway session usually held by a particular project before they hold an ICO session. The goal is to better introduce their projects to people by giving a small reward to those who join their projects for free.

In very simple words, the method of giving away free coins based on some predefined conditions is known as Airdrop. The main goal of Airdrop is to disperse the tokens by granting them to the existing holders of a specific blockchain currency, for example, Bitcoin or Ethereum.

This is when a project gives away their coin for free. Some  projects organizes both icos and airdrop, while some organizes only airdrop.

Airdrop is the new way for newbies to get some free coins, airdrops especially made by new projects which usually can't attract investors. Mostly you end up with a useless coins in the wallet.

Altcoin airdrop is defined as the process where by crypto currencies ebterprise distributes cryptocurrency token for free. The reason behind this is for rewarding their loyal customers. That's all.

I really hope for Altcoin from Airdrop is Ethereum. because I'm sure that Airdrop using this coin will be great with lots of enthusiasts and lots of lists on this Airdrop. with Ethereal's development potential high enough to make a profit high enough for the future.

Altcoin airdrop is a free acquired alts when you participated in a certain airdrop of an ICO and it can possible be sent by someone to you. It is like free coins for you.

Why you call them beggars? You dnt have the right to call them like that.  Its not bad to claim something free but like what others said, some airdrops is totally a trash! It has no value like real altcoins. Such a waste of time
