I just find out that it's not easy to win going coinomi airdrops, I've participated in 10 different airdrops and never get paid at all so when I rechecked I always see like only 1000 people selected out of 300k or more, why airdrop in the first place when only few people will be selected ?

I assume you joined a bounty and that's why they're only selecting a few hundred rather than having a lot of participants. If you've received an airdrop coming from a new project, they're limiting the receivers, it's because they have a certain limit.
There are airdrops that you'll receive coming from projects that don't limit their participants because they're all covering those addresses as long as they've got the right token during the snapshot before receiving the airdrop.

I have participated in several airdrops at CMC. Usually they were always sent. It is very important that you answer the questions he asks for the project. If these questions are answered correctly, it generally sends tokens. However, in cases where a limited number of users are purchasing, it sends both to those who answer the questions correctly and to those who apply first. As it is clear in the budget allocated for the project, a limited number of participation is accepted. I think this is done both to protect the investor and to protect the project.

Because the funds for airdrop is limited so technically, not all people can win because if that’s the chase that token will go dip soon. Just participate on Airdrop without expecting anything, if you’re lucky enough then you can have the chance to make money. I do participate as well, but very few was able to pay their due Airdrop is really different now.

In airdrop, you must be a lucky person to winning it. that means if you are not lucky enough and then you will never win such airdrop. I should remind you that the amounts that used for airdrop was so small compared with how many participants that already registered in the airdrop. This is the same case like icolist when only 1k - 6k investors can go in to invest in the project while it has moer than 500k participants.


That means airdrop was successfully brinng attention from the users. You can imagine when all of people (300k) who have participated in airdrop was retweeting and following whole of tasks that already created and it will give massive exposure. The main purpose of airdrop was not giving people free token but the developers who created this airdrop wants the project gets more exposure. You should never if you can easily with the airdrop because it depends on your luck.

While those airdrops are free to participate to, they cost time, and with that time you could do bounties or just work for money that you invest into cryptos. Wishing somekind of stroke of luck won't get you anywhere. Only work works if you want to earn something.

I participated before when numbers of participants were way lower and I won 2 out of 25 airdrops I joined, but now a lot of them pay very few to users, even less than $5, and one of things you have to do to join an airdrop is join their telegram group, and you can see that a lot of people don't even follow the rules but they inflate the number of participants, 12k members in the telegram group and 300k participants in CMC, doesn't make sense at all.

It is a common technique to hype the project before launch. Not only that, but it really helps drive their social numbers up. There are people out there who are super hopeful and still spend their time doing all the tasks only to find out that they never get anything.

It is all but a strategy, and by the commonality of it, a pretty successful one because those we do get lucky tend to perpetuate and exist in the system for the 2nd lucky shot.

To mind off that airdrops does have corresponding amount of tokens which would be given for free or airdropped and if they would tend out to give all of those users had participated then only a few amount would be given on each one of them which i dont see for it to be appealing and to know that there's lot of cheaters and multi-account on these space so  i  cant blamed on what the team is coming or up to in the end.

They are the ones who do make out decisions then its  just normal that they do have this kind of system.If you havent been chosen then
better luck next time.

First if all, we must be aware that today's airdrops are not as worthy as past.
Related to airdrops that you said, every project has limited token allocations to give as rewards. And the limitation to participants are fair enough in order to make rewards received litle bit worthy. Than having many particioants but they can only have some cents. It will make participants hurt and not interested enough to join.

There are some projects out there that are no transparency like they are lying, some of the wallets they airdropped could belong to the team or they created multiple wallets and participate in airdrops so people will think a lot of people got airdropped and the circulation of their coins is spread, then very huge possibility they can control the price.

I used to participate in different airdrops and the thing is that I have never been whitelisted too. Airdrops take so much time as you have to find it first, and then compete a plenty of tasks such as subscription, retweets etc and it is not guaranteed that you will win, chances are so small.

Eventually, I decided to switch to bounties and ambassador campaigns as they don't require capital and you are to invest your time, but you are more likely to get profit.

lol , like fight against an army , the last i get from CMC airdrops is Yooshi airdrop with yooshi NFT , i forgot when i get it , but after that , not even 1. i am no longer participant after last month , bored with Bad RNG, better join airdrop from private party like telegram group or etc.

Because this is free so there will still be many people who voluntarily follow it and hope to get big results. Airdrops are one of the ways to promote a project that's why they only give a small amount of prizes to many people because with many people introducing their project through the required workings participants will be able to bring many investors to their project.

probably first come first serve or you didn't meet the requirements in order to receive the rewards,  simple as that like bounty campaign., actually through CMC everyone can apply for airdrop but the fact that there's a lot user that has alot of followers and very qualified to receive rewards its very hard to decide who will gonna be the winners..  ;D that's the reason i didn't participate such airdrop because my social media accounts don't have a lot of followers and etc. Lol

I am not very lucky, for 30 times in which I participated I was not lucky even once. Although there are acquaintances who received payments from projects 2-3 times and in the end they normally received money after the sale of these coins. Well, I continue, maybe closer to 100 attempts I will get something.

Coinmarketcap airdrops always pays but one thing they did wrong is never saying all they need is 2000 participants, they turn it into gambling cos they randomly select the winners themselves which is wrong

Even if you join on the first minutes that the airdrop launched it doesn't mean you will be among the winner  ;D till date I'm still confused how coinmarketcap selects their winners

The worst part is those 1000 participants that were selected were also them or a part of their team.
I would not waste time in these airdrops that are being offered on any platform. Instead, just invest in something else that is worth your time and effort to be supported.
This ain't 2015-2017 anymore where airdrops can be profitable by just signing up or joining their telegram. The other bad side of it is leaking your information then they will start sending nonsense emails.

Well, it's ups and downs to work on airdrops. I have also done many tasks to get airdrops, but most likely, paid and priced airdrops are not so much.
Personally, I sometimes don't participate in airdrops that limit the number of prize recipients, because I'm sometimes pessimistic about being able to get it, especially if there are special conditions to get an airdrop. Well, personally I follow airdrops from projects that are already on the market, or whose projects are close to hardcap or have already achieved it. I feel it has more potential, even though I don't follow airdrops much.

Seems like participants for the lottery when they don't have specific criteria. as I can see like Onerare (https://coinmarketcap.com/id/currencies/onerare/airdrop/) token has registered over 2 Million people which only for 1000 accepted. And Onerare also got a benefit 2 million Twitter and Instagram followers. this means when you want to have millions of followers create the event with the airdrop on CMC, give the airdrop for random people and you have done for million followers.

Maybe isn't CoinMarketcap who chooses participants but the tokens team. they only host the events.

When it comes to airdrop it is not everyone that is usually lucky. It’s just a thing of luck, and everyone that participates in it don’t usually get rewarded except a few of them. Just like you said, 300,000 people participated in the airdrop that you were among, and only 1000 people were rewarded. That’s just how it is in most of them, a lot of people are going to participate and later a few of them are going to be selected and they will be rewarded for their work. That’s why a lot of people get frustrated and they give up On airdrops.

So, you can just keep on trying and as time goes on you might get lucky in one of the projects and be rewarded. But, I think you also have to put in more hard work and  know the kind of airdrops you choose, you don’t just choose any one you see.

I only joined the first few airdrops of coinmarketcap because once they to have an KYC verified account on binance in order to receive the airdrop i stopped doing them. I don't like that binance is using those airdrops as just another method to get even more people into their exchange and even forcing them to do a KYC there. Binance becomes more and more of a monopolist and i don't like that. I would also say that in general those airdrops are not worth it anymore, you mostly get rewards in the area of 3 to maybe maximum 10 dollars and i always hope that those projects that i invested into are not doing airdrops because then all of sudden thousands of new members are joining the telegram groups but don't add anything valuable to the project or to the discussion.

CMC airdrops are not all based on luck but there are also calculated based on quiz provided. I followed all the CMC Airdrops provided by Binance. But nothing ever went into my wallet. Today everyone rejoiced that they got a SAND airdrop gift from CMC. I didn't get it even though I followed it.

Perhaps it is an algorithm that CMC created to randomly select from the number that follows cmc airdrops. My advice is, there is no need to follow the airdrop for a random fee, it will only make you cry the possibility of getting his coins is very small. It's better to get paid a little with even divisions, right?

The reason is that the amount of allocation is very limited to each Airdrop so the first person to follow it will always be selected and they will win with the payout they can receive, so chasing the Airdrop should always be faster and this is very different from chasing bounties.

Airdrops shouldn't have anything to do with lucks, there should be limit on the participants and once that limit is reached they should close the campaign but coinmarketcap isn't like that, they will allow thousands of people knowing in their mind they will only pick few, I'd say it's a way of promoting the projects faster while paying less.

I have no problem with having a market partner with airdrops. I'm sure binance doesn't just accept aidrops. because to get into binance requires a clear coin project, and not only binance doing that there are several other markets doing things like that like bitmart, gate.io

I think you and many others got tricked coz I would think that those people who got selected are part of the team. They just show it that someone receives airdrop in order for people to join but the truth is that they don't have any plan to give it to the others. I think you don't need to wonder why it goes like that because, in the first place, airdrops are just nothing. Yeah, you can't get any from these shitcoins/scam projects. I think we all know about this and base on my experience to the past years, it hugely change and they are not more useless and a waste of time.

The CMC airdrop is completely random. I participated in dozens of airdrops there and won several times, even though the participants reached hundreds of thousands of people. It all depends on each of us luck, keep the spirit and don't give up.

Due to the large number of participants who take part in the airdrop from coinmarketcap, you have almost no chance of getting free coins. Therefore, instead of wasting your time on meaningless airdrops, you need to focus on learning the basics of trading. This is exactly what will bring you a good profit in the future.

You should learn what was the main purpose of airdrop instead of complaining about that here. You must have done various task but the reward will be given randomly based on some requirements. You have been filling all of requirements to be eligible for reward but you are still not getting any reward from your effort that means if you must have retired from participated in airdrop. Do you still wanna bet on your lock? that's your decision but i should remind you that if you can do a better thing than just participate in something that you didn't even know when you will be winning the airdrop. CMC has too much participants and your chance was almost zero by seeing how many participants that participated in airdrop by CMC. The chance was around 1000/300000.
That's so sick. Stop wasting your time for something worthless. You will be getting only a few bucks only from airdrop. This is a marketing trick to get awareness by public.

Because real money isn't free so if there is a legit airdrop then don't expect them to give you free money for nothing. The era of airdrop ended in the 2018 itself so you can feel like you won a lottery if you actually receive any assets with real value from airdrops in 2021 and after.

Don't expect too much for something like this. There is an airdrop that gives a payment. But more of them just contain scams. I once followed, among ten only three to four who give pay. I'm not really hopeful because it's free, so it doesn't matter when it's just a scam. Many say luck only and that's the fact.

I only took part in the Airdrop on Coinmarketcap, but at that time I was not lucky, there were many participants and they always got airdrops from cmc, that's why I chose not to take part in the cmc airdrop and chose to follow the airdrop on the twitter channel, there are many airdrops that are proven to pay for example, shibalana, Scum, Woff and many more, on average all are on the solana network

I don't know how they select the airdrop winner of CoinmarketCap. But I am too unlucky because I participate in his airdrop more than 10 time but I am not selected even one time. So I disappoint from airdrop and that the reason I leave them. But I congrats to all Cmc airdrop winner because they are very lucky

In the last week but first time i have been participated in CMC Airdrop "Wojak Finance" but they will distribute 22k$ for 2K people’s i think it’s pretty lower rewards. I just participated if my luck will favour than win 2k$ for the top winner. I don’t know regarding CMC procedure how they will select even though legitimacy.

When it comes to this then it is really somewhat needing some sort of luck when you do deal with airdrops even though it isn't assured if its legit or not because CMC doesn't really care that much.

If you do have the ample time on dealing with things then its up to you if you would continue to deal with those airdrops or not because in overall
it doesn't really need much of an effort.

Just try and who knows that you would able to hit it up on next turn.

I'd rather hunt for airdrops through third party companies than using coinmarketcap cos the chances of getting paid is extremely low, no don't use coinmarketcap use websites like airdrops.io airdropking and others not coinmarketcap

Of the 300k participating one person may just hold 100 accounts using bots set up to register early quickly. One of the hundreds of accounts they signed up for there are definitely some that will get rewarded. It's actually cheating because it's multi-accounts. But it was the effort they put in to win the random.

Talking about CMC Airdrops, I think the people who already invested in the project stand a high chance of winning and maybe with a bit luck. Basically because I've Participated in over 20 CMC Airdrops and the only one I ever won is Ariva . So I believe I got selected because I invested and had it in the same wallet I used in participating for the airdrop. 

The final implication of what you are saying about the CMC airdrop is that the fraud rate is very high, one person can own multiple accounts and sign up for the airdrop will increase the chances of getting rewards and in CMC is a pretty big place in terms of airdrop paying reputation, the cheaters won't be a few people, it could be a few hundred and a few thousand people with a huge number of accounts in hand. As a fair and competitive player with these guys, I bet our odds of luck are slim, don't try to convince ourselves we're unlucky on the airdrop, it only frustrates us more with each announcement of the results

Your luck is a common coincidence with the fact that at the time of the airdrop you had an Arriva coin in your wallet. The winners in this airdrop are chosen randomly from the total number of participants who took part in it. And accordingly, the more participants took part in it, the lower the chance of getting a coin.

So there is no need to store certain coins in the wallet to participate in the CMC airdrop and indeed this is just a random choice chosen by the team, so storing the tokens is not a must in the airdrop on Coinmarketcap.
What I know is that slots always run out of airdrops on Coinmarketcap, yes, the chances are even smaller that you can get it, so even if you win it's only a few cents depending on the value of the token in the market.

So far I have not been lucky enough to win in the CMC airdrop.

to be honest I was never lucky when I sit on the coinmarketcap airdrop ,I've done tasks with follow accounts and others, and I didn't get anything at the end it broke my hopes ! Airdrop on coinmarketcap are randomly selected and there are tasks to complete and not all hunters get that coin or token ,it's like looking for gold in a pile of brass ! so hard

That’s just how it is, airdrops hardly pays most of the people that participates in it. I would say that my locked rate is around 5% ‘cause I have participated in many airdrops and just only one has ever paid me.  Moreover, I have stopped participating in airdrops like constantly as I used to do when I was still a newbie in the community.

This time around I’ve decided to look for other things to do than airdrops because if you are relying on airdrops you are going to be wasting your time. Airdrops are kind of for fun and you shouldn’t put all your hope in it, because you are mostly going to be disappointed at the end, since they are not going to be selecting all the participants to be paid. So, what you are going through now is a normal thing that most people go through when they participate in airdrops, is just a thing of luck.

CMC airdrops are not all based on luck but some are calculated based on the quiz provided. I followed all the CMC Airdrops provided by Binance. But nothing ever goes into my wallet. Today everyone rejoiced that they got a SAND airdrop gift from CMC. I don't understand even though I follow it.

Airdrops are no longer worth the effort put into it, I have since removed myself from Airdrops participation because it is just time-wasting,  but unfortunately, many newbies still pursue airdrops and as a result, there will be high numbers of participants and fewer tokens to go round, if you are lucky to have $5 worth of airdrops otherwise it is mostly cents,
Well if you want to have some succes with cmc airdrops, you study the project and answer the quiz correctly.

An "airdrop" refers to a method of distributing cryptocurrency to the public, via the fact that they own certain other tokens or wallets on a particular blockchain. This is usually done for marketing purposes to incentivize the holding of other tokens or induce them to become a participant in the blockchain network.

I try to follow most of Cmc airdrop but Due to most of time i got nothing & got disappointed even after done the task perfectly. i usually avoid airdrops. Besides it needs more transfer fee to covert into usdt than its worth. But i try to join good cmc airdrop but so rarely. As far i remember, i was selected for cmc airdrop in 2017. After that i got airdrops but not from CMC! Maybe participants increase a lot by number

You shouldnt expect that much that you could make money and take something whenever you do join up something because you arent the only ones who do tend to join and there are hundreds or even thousands.

Luck rate will not really be that be able to be calculated since we are really that different in terms on what we are dealing with so it wont really be that precise.

Deal with airdrops if you do have that extra time but dont anticipate or expect that much.

Now, airdrop is becoming a lottery? Lol, I haven't joined any airdrops since 2018 to be honest, so I don't know the landscape of it.

And it's pretty obvious that the airdrops you choose is somewhat reputable, - Coinomi and that's why it is limited to 1000 people alone. And as I have said, it's lottery so you need to get a lot of luck just to be able to get your name pick up. In any case, I'm sure majority of us here is done with airdrops anyways, not gonna waste my time on that. So I wish you good luck joining airdrops.

2017 is the airdrop season, I guess. From 2018 until the present, they are all useless. have no market value, and are just a waste of time.
Might say that some got lucky to have a good airdrop, it is something just around 1/1000, I don't have the exact figure but that gonna be close to that and seemingly it discourage people to join if that is only the percentage we got unless if we are garbage collector (well, I don't think that OP has kind of mindest).
But to what it said by OP, that is weird, I mean, it is not a lottery, they are just making worthless coins and giving them away.

There are some reason why you are not so lucky when participated in this airdrop.

- Small allocations didn't fit with so many participants that already participated in the campaign.

There's another thing just like it was based on so many criterias or it was also following lottery system. People that already followed all of steps that already mentioned by CMC will be eligible to get the reward. This reward will be random. The more people who have been participated in the campaign means less chance for you to join or even get reward from participated in the CMC airdrop.

You can participate in the airdrop that created or launched by bounty portal or airdrop detective. This is much better than airdrop that launched by CMC.

Im sure that this airdrop was meant for fun even from CMC themselves they never initially intend to take this airdrop seriously that’s why sometime the supply for the airdrop just too small and only selected few deserves to win however speaking about marketing strategy this has successfully make some coins known to the masses and boost popularity. I think it’s just another way of advertising made by CMC for all these coins that wants or atleast have cooperation with CMC.
That’s why for anyone who trying to follow the airdrops they should never expect to get anything out of it let alone being rich from getting the airdrops. There are simply too many demand while the airdrops that are available even not gonna cover 10% of the demands. So for anyone who think that they will surely get something from following such airdrops better change that mindset.

Man, quit it - there too many people who wants to win there and too little allocation. You should find projects without such popularity and take part in their airdrops and bounties.

Actually i Don't know About airdrop. How these are done and how the winners are selected. Because I never did that. Since according to your post, only 1000 winners out of 300k participants are made in the airdrops.  So it takes a lot of luck to be the winner there.

If they don't limit the number of winners from the total participation, of course those who participate will not get anything.  For example, the prize for the airdrop is $300k, the number of coinomi wallet users is 1 million, then $300k/1 million = $0.3. So they have to choose which participants are eligible with a limit of 1000 people from the total participation.

CMC doesn't implement a system like 1 account/ip. That's why cmc airdrops are very easy to cheat, and many cheaters get a lot of rewards.

At least I tried. Not only in CMC, expect the airdrop is a small process. Of the many airdrops few of them are real give gifts and even that is small. It's only natural that it's free and has a lot of participants. If you get the possibility of it being lucky, then don't expect big from the airdrop.

CMC airdrops are paying but the problem is they don't announce how many participants they will be needing so there are so many participants want to join

Expect that most airdrops today won't reach your desired rewards. About your question, you should find the answer if you read the airdrop terms. There's always a limit when participating in airdrops regardless of whether you do the task or not. It depends on the project on how many they will accommodate.

But to tell you generally, the glory days of airdrop are now gone.

It's just a mistake on the part of the team who didn't make security with such a model, so what cheaters get is the result and it's very satisfying because they also take advantage of moments and conditions like that.

That's true. Nowadays airdrops are Become so worthless and valuable airdrops are hard to received among huge participants. Even the amount was also low which was unexpected at the end of the day. In 2017,  i received airdrops with high reward but nowadays the system is change and they just giving us very little amount of reward for their marketing propose only.

CMC is the most popular platform for live coin prices since the beginning, it has really high amount of daily visitors and when it promotes aidrops, it will get huge traction, so in my opinion its a waste of time applying to those limited airdrops because the chance of getting it is tiny.

Honestly it is not something that I would base my income on, it is a very small amount and rarely ever pays enough to matter. Which is why there is really no reason to follow it up neither. If you are from a third world nation and have anything under 300 dollars in salary then you should maybe check CMC and all the other places (coinbase has it too) on "earn" pages and you could make as much as 100 bucks in 5 different places working only like 10 hours a week. That may not become a side income that you want to spend, save that aside in bitcoin or ethereum if you would like to, because if you cash them out then you are going to lose a lot to fee.

Grow it big and then do it all together, 1 year means 1200 dollars and if you could wait that long then maybe the prices will be higher as well, who knows maybe to 2k or 3k. Cash out after that if you still want to, but I would suggest just keep doing it and growing it. So, from a person with only 300 bucks (3.6k yearly) salary, and maybe even less, you manage to turn to someone who has a "chance" to have 3k, that's the power.

I got 0 luck with it. Ive been entering even with their learn to earn program but still no luck as it has limits too which isn't showed at the beginning of tasks given. I think its just because Hundreds of thousands enter the airdrop and only a limited of 2K mostly participants get the prizes. Better join bounties these days even if it pays low sadly.

Participating on airdrop is not always a guarantee for earning or sharing in the tokens to be distributed. While some projects strives to distribute the tokens to all the qualified participants, other projects make some selections on the participants to enjoy from the distribution.

Quite curious on what sorts of question "he" asks. Is this another coined term to just say that it is a KYC verification wherein you put in your email address. name, and sometimes even the country you reside?
I gave up on airdrops long time ago and regardless of how reputated the platform is/was, I would never give out my email address no more.

To be honest, im try participated in everyone of airdrops and CMC Earn Company, and im only win one time, its was FIO drop as im sure, and im got 17tokens, after im trade it to 34$ in Binance coin, for the first its good im think, but im so unlucky to get anymore drops, but im hope ill get more drops in future, never give up  8) 8) 8)

I am not sure how they implement the system and whether they are strict in following the one IP policy, but we can see a lot of users participating in everything they conduct. I have not won anything till now, may be because i did not participate in many drops but last month i enrolled in some of the drops and i doubt i won anything, i am yet to check my wallet but i doubt i won anything.

I did not join Coinomi Airdrop yet but joined only Coinmarketcap Airdrop. Its very tough to get airdrop because large number of applier and they randomly choose. My win rate is almost 7%.
I remembered ,First Coinmarketcap Airdrop was Guaranteed and was very few participants. Now number of applierbis very large and Airdrop is limited to 1k .

Based on my personal experience, I cannot complain about CMC, the projects that they have predicted and come out resistant are very good, although they are not things that will really make you millionaires I think it is a good option that many do not know, about 5 months I did an Airdrop, and they paid it, the bad thing is that the token is worth nothing, and I really had a long time not to have used this functionality of the Airdrops since 2018-2019 which were the years when it was in full swing, I think that all the money is going through NFTs. For now and by 2022 I think the best business is NFTs as long as the economy is sustainable.

We can call this a lottery airdrop or some sort, an airdrop is given free back in the old days you just need to post your wallet address or pm the admin and you'll get your airdrop without doing anything or hoping that you will receive, but now you have to perform tasks like a social media bounty campaign one example is the gleam platform where developers is using this platform to launch their so-called airdrop.

It takes a high degree of luck to be selected among thousands of participants in the airdrop. We can't all be lucky and that explains why you've not been selected for a while. You can keep trying as most of the people that get selected have also tried for several times.

they show how many users will receive airdrop but chances are quite small. I took part in several airdrop events but didn't win anything so now stopped taking part in them.

Some airdrops may worth a lot after months or years. As long as you get the payments, all we need to do is just to hold them or try to forget them. The next few years some may worth a lot. The recent good example is curio cards.

If there are 1000 people selected from 300k, it means you are not alone. There are 298999 people other than you include bot or anything else which not get the reward. If me i know i never luck so i prefer to join airdrop which have limit in participants but everyone who join is get, it means who not get is who late to join before limit reached and we no hope much or testing our luck in it.

I suggest leaving the airdrops from coinmarketcap, it's just a waste of time, we can't rely too much on luck with very small odds, they only pay 1000 people while participants are more than 100k, its worth also only around $10, better follow the bounties in this forum , although currently the pay is small but in my opinion it is more certain than the airdrops on coinmarketcap.

Sometimes I'm already pessimistic about filling out airdrops again and again, learning from the many that I've participated in, only a few actually give prizes and almost none of those prizes sell on the market.
But for some reason, until now I am still struggling to find an airdrop that I hope has good prospects in the future. I keep trying and seem to ignore the fact that many airdrops are scams and a waste of time.

Not all airdrop prizes can benefit the participants. In my opinion, the level of luck obtained through airdrops is only a little, especially now people are competing to register airdrop prizes. Whoever is faster is the one who is accepted. from there it shows that participants who register late will not get a share from the airdrop. that's why I think the airdrop profit rate is very thin.

I used to have really good luck with airdrops a couple years ago.. Now I've found that most are scams. You spend time (which is basically money) and then never get your tokens in the end. I've started doing more selfdrops personally because you don't have to do anything for them and you get them instantly. The downside is you pay the gas fee's which are usually $0.25 or so. Still, it's a low cost for me and worth it to actually get your tokens and not have to share crap and wait months for them.

But the risk here we do not get from any mining body if we spend money with airdrops and then deceived by it we can only regret. I think the other most annoying thing about the airdrop is that if it's distributed based on that winner I think it gives fake hope to the participation of the loser.

Coinmarketcap is such a popular page, that participating in their airdrops is many times worthless imo, than in any other airdrops. Projects budgets are not infinite. While in any other airdrops participate thousands or tens thousands or contenders, in airdrops from cmc participate hundred thousands. Just look how many people are in their Diamond collection game and how advertised this is or was. All these people participate in airdrops as well. Hard to get among those who will get at least something.

First time I joined on CMC airdrop have chance more than 70% to win and available to get coin but now many cheater and bot registration there so less chance under 10% you will available in participant list winner. Just win few airdrop CMC only and now I left without participating again because waste time and we not get coin, just happening when new cmc airdrop have reward for 2k participant and form registration member more than 20k participant.

1 years ago i usually participate coinmarketcap airdrop. but as soon as i realized that the rate is drooping fast lately.
i did not join again and using my time to look another way to earn money

yepp agree. we should use our time to be worth more

I participate in more than 20 airdrop of CoinmarketCap but still I didn't selected in any of these airdrop how bad luck luck is mine. I am shocked how pretty will be those people who will select for CoinmarketCap airdrop because CoinmarketCap airdrop real and awesome project which is listed or going to new listing on CoinmarketCap.
I believe if you luck is better you has 100% chance to win but if your luck is bad like mine you will never selected

Of cause, you know that the chances are slim as there are a lot of participants and I also believe that some might include the number of referrals you get and if you joined early. That is mostly like Try your luck with the number of people joining those types of Airdrops. only a few projects this day considers everyone that participated in airdrops like Bitbook.

Legit projects will pay airdrops. Just keep on trying whenever there are projects who offers airdrop. It's been a while since I received airdrip.  Before airdrop is too popular and profitable. I don't suggest holding them long due to the fact that the market is volatile better trade them if there is a chance. Many ICO that gives airdrop paymemt before is no longer active now so as much there is a opportunity for profit better grabs it.

Nice reminder Lumeire, old days are long gone I guess! I tried a few airdrops when they started but didn't get anything from all that bothering, as I remember we had to do some surveys... after that I didn't try ever again!
Well, CMC is famous, probably there are many registrations and it's like pure luck to get anything there! It's for people who have a lot of free time, in that case it's ok to try your luck and maybe win something...

It is true everyone can't get the token as it will increase the supply and make the value dump and also bounty is for everyone but Airdrop may be for all OR random users it's not guaranteed well i only won 6-7 time till now and the best drop i find is momo key

Yes, it's true what you said. but for now being a participant to take part in the airdrop prize is of course a bit difficult when compared to previous years, now being a participant in the airdrop prize must compete to be the fastest, a little late we register so we don't receive any prizes from them. then another reason is that currently airdrop prizes are less convincing, sometimes after we get them we have to keep them in our wallets because there is no place for exchange that we can do.

Only a select few will prevent the token's value from plummeting when listed on exchanges. Currently, some projects have a mechanism that only pays 50% of tokens to airdrop winners, the remaining 50% they will lock and pay after 1-2 months, I think it is reasonable. A lot of people participate, but the number of people selected is very small, please pray and need a little luck

my principle in following the airdrop is not really expecting the appropriate payment written in the rules,,
because the more people join the less we get paid accordingly..
.from there we have to be patient, and also don't get discouraged,,always follow any airdrop and there will definitely be payments from the many airdrops that we will follow.

This is first time I hear about coinomi airdrops. I usually do not participate any of bounty programs outside bitcointalk. But, after many shitcoin airdrops, I started to choose very selectively. But, if there is anything convincing and recommended by many people on social media then I may consider to start again participating.

My local exchange is also airdropping some coins (usually worth around $10 to $15) based on my exchange token holding. Other than this I have not found any airdrop is worth the efforts. Moreover, all types of bounty hunting are not at all profitable these days.

Low allocation max participants, very good coinmarketcap very good, this way the project will have uncountable posts on Twitter and Facebook, oh those poor souls hoping that they will win lol, why can't they just request for limited participants since the allocation is small?

This week I decided to take part in one project and was surprised that now there are 10 times more participants!! Now you shouldn't come here because the chance to win in such a draw is less than 0.1%.

Airdrops are ways projects aim to achieve public adoption and popularity. On participating, you hope to be rewarded. However,  on CMC airdrops it is not easy to win because of limited funds as well as a large number of participants. For example,  if allocated fund for a project is $10000 , the project will prefer to have 1000 people to be winners so that each participant can receive $10 . If the project is to allocate $10000 to say 50,000 participants, what it means 8s that each participant will receive $0.2 which is very small.  Again, they want the project to be popular so they allow more people. That is why you have to accept their terms and conditions.
Generally airdrops are ment to popularise the project as well as benefit those who are lucky to win.

This might be a kinda trick they use for getting themself promoted. Thus In spite of having less worth of altcoins allocation for airdrop, but they make 300k or more people work for them! & just give few people the prize which is mainly depend on luck and sometimes first come first win but for me, i always looking for best opportunities and there are many new projects where I tried my luck but i haven’t found anything yet

Makes sense. Because that's highly likely, and this is actually a very good thing by doing and rewarding with a large number of people, it will indirectly increase their traffic and make some people look at this project.
it doesn't matter if it's skam or not, but with things like this it will make it easier for developers to make profits with free endorsements

Most CMC airdrops will be participated by millions of people while the winners will be in low numbers like 1000 more or less. For sure it will be so hard to win it even if we already tried with tons of those airdrops. If we want to increase our chance with airdrop, we need to have capital first. We then can do many stuffs like voting at bitrue for example. With good amounts of capital, we might get the better shares. The numbers of airdrop hunter has been increased rapidly, hence to get free airdrop for sure will be hard since we have many competitors.

The main thing here is there are people who will continue to participate, even it's clear that the airdrop is like a contest type.

There are many airdrop hunters who are okay with that concept. They are hoping that someday luck will permit them to win and share that allocated

Amount of prizes. As hunter, it's your responsibilities to sort all the available airdrops. If you are not good with that kind of settings, better not to

participate, move forward, and find the kind that you are willing to waste your time and efforts.

You people who use to participate in airdrop must have to move on and think about how this it becomes hopeless. I don't think these numbers are real.
Honestly, your chances are very thin. It was just like a lottery system and only a few selected participants receives the price, that is really ridiculous. Maybe, if you could do for another job, I think you gain more money than waiting and wasting your time in this game. I guess that was enough, and stop fooling yourself believing this as it only gives you nothing in the end.

If you look for the best opportunities, there are also others that are doing it.

That means that there will be a big share of what you find because others are also hunting for those good airdrops and bounties that they might have find not only through cmc but also through other means.

I took part in a few of the very first ones and i think back then you did not need be drawn in a lottery to get something but everyone got a few coins. I think i have stopped taking part in those Cmc airdrops once they required you to have a kyc verified account on binance in order to take part. Nowadays they switched to a lottery system where the chance to be selected is very slim and even if you are lucky you still only get a few dollars worth of coins. So that is not interesting for me anymore.

I think this is done both to ensure the financial backer and to secure the undertaking. Simply take an interest on Airdrop without anticipating anything, assuming that you're fortunate enough then you can get the opportunity to bring in cash. The primary motivation behind airdrop was not giving individuals free token yet the engineers who made this airdrop needs the undertaking gets more openness.

Right, airdrops at CMC are no longer attractive to participants, and I have stopped since 4 months ago because I have never been a winner, the chances of winning are very small because the percentage can be below 0.01%, this is the advantage of the devs. which can be promoted at a very low cost compared to advertising on Google Ads.

I suggest leaving airdrops from CMC, just wasting time, the chances of winning are very small, so I've never participated in CMC airdrops, it's better to follow airdrops from gleam or bounties on this forum, although small but almost certain.

Yay, finally I win one! I thought I will never win such airdrop cuz of the number of competitors were so huge, around 3 million users. But thanks God, its my lucky day. Wish it'll good sign for my next entries tho  ;D

The truth is that it is somewhat difficult to be lucky with the CMC airdrops because those who make the money that are earned is very minimal, or better yet, the coins that are earned are negligible and nothing can be done about it, the profitability of the Airdrops reigned for 2017 and for now to obtain profits for free the opportunities are scarce, the best thing is to invest a little money in a project or in any currency that can generate profits quickly, the solution for some was in the NFTs, but now it is a high risk investment.

I just want to know what is the total that was chosen as the winner of the 3 million entries in this airdrop?
Then how much is the allocation given, is this quite worth what you get?

I've also joined the Coinmarketcap airdrop several times and some say the prize is too small because there are many participants so I think I'm lazy because the prizes are not much but the wait is longer.
Sometimes airdrops are annoying.

The airdrops will depend entirely on your luck. Because when Airdrop's budget is low. Then the reward is less. Low budget people are also taken less. If the budget is high then the number of people is taken more. A few days ago an airdrop went away and everyone will get a good amount of payment from it. That airdrop is 1sol. Which now trades for 1.7$ on the bybit and houbi global  Exchanger. Those who have joined this airdrop have received tokens. It had no limit. And if you want to get good airdrop, you have to search in different ICO branches. Then you will get good quality airdrop.

Perhaps it is an algorithm that CMC created to randomly select from the number that follows cmc airdrops. My advice is, there is no need to follow the airdrop for a random fee, it will only make you cry the possibility of getting his coins is very small. It's better to get paid a little with even divisions, right?

Not too good I win only one airdrop they launch airdrop but winner is too less so that's why mostly disappointed if not selected  So better to skip this airdrop this is only time wasting nothing more

I have participated in about 2 of CMC airdrop, I got nothing, so I stop participation. How do you make people work and work spending time and data and their reward is hanging under probability? No I can't take that, I just face something more certain and not some kind of dice.

It is really bad i only won only 7-8 time in total CMC Airdrop that i joined  but for all of them my best experience will be MOMO key coin which when i get it's value is around 8$ but now if you check the price of the one momo key it's more than 200$ that's my best experience with cmc Airdrop but still i am joining all of them  ;D

In my opinion, it's like playing roulette. Of the 300,000 participants, only the first thousand, if not in time, then late. Or, for example, a random choice of users. True, I won this way once. So it's up to you to participate or not. I pass.

Coinmarketcap airdrops are and always have been a very cheap marketing strategy which would barely (if at all) be worth anything for the person recieving the airdrop. If you are interested in a projects tokens, it would be better to spend your time on bounties rather than airdrops.

If you do the math on the earning potential and winning potential of CMC airdrops, you still end up making less money than if you were to do bounties or anything else, really. So don't waste your time.

I have dropped participating in coinmarketcap airdrops as it is completely no use doing it. The budget of airdrops is low. Right now it is even impossible to get anything from Earn section, where questionnaire and adding token as a favorite is sort of a protection from bots. Then chances of getting something from an airdrop, where users can create accounts non-stop is close to zero in my opinion. Based on my past experience airdrops already then were unprofitable, and right now they are truly a waste of time.

I am a person who believes in luck. But in my opinion luck can be obtained when, ability and effort are directly proportional. There is no luck when we just sit around without trying.
This also applies to airdrops, we try and hone our skills in analyzing new coins. Although the chance of winning is small because you have to compete with thousands of people, but I am sure that the effort will not betray the results.

I have been part of few projects that have organised CMC airdrop. For projects this is the best way to get mass social media coverage but for participants it is just like a lottery.

In one of my projects the required number of people receiving airdrop tokens was 5000 and the number of participants were 50k. Which means only 10% people will be eligible to get those tokens. That is not good for those participating as there is no guarantee that you will get tokens after participating in multiple airdrops. Therefore it is better to avoid such kind of airdrops.

What else can be a chance other than the minimum? With such a number of participants and the amount of remuneration, getting something is almost impossible. Only a miracle can help and great luck. Therefore, I very rarely participate in such distributions.

Only lucky people can win at aidrop, and I have been so much in aidrop at CMC but have not been able to get results from the project because so many participants participated so that we are difficult to get a victory, so if we follow an aidrop do not expect too much because they only choose a few participants who are indeed worthy of receiving prizes and this is also included in luck if we get.

Participating in an airdrop does not always imply that you will earn or share in the tokens that will be distributed. While some projects strive to distribute tokens to all qualified participants, others make some selections on who will benefit from the distribution. Aside from this, you can check out DAO maker, Orion protocol is just one of their successful launch.  

who gets it first, that's what usually happens at CMC apart from answering questions correctly, sometimes the limitations of the budgeted coins can also be a reference
Honestly, I've never been lucky if I took part in an airdrop at CMC, too many competitors, it's more like I'm looking outside of CMC even though I'm a reff, and focus on bounties

it can be said that 5% of the airdrops held by CMC, it's better for me to look for a bounty than chasing a prize that clearly has minimal participants and sometimes whoever comes quickly can get it

I have never been a fan of all these airdrops but I must admit that I have participated in a few and came out blank in all of them and like you said, there are too many people competing for few resources and the projects gets all the publicity from those huge number of participants. I have long forgotten about those.

Now the trend is different, the Airdrops are not as profitable as they were in 2017, recently I did an Airdrop in CMC and they did give me coins, but they were very few, the truth is I did not even reach 1 USD, apart from that I had to do a lot tasks, the truth is that it took me almost half an hour to do everything that was required of me.

So it is a lot of work for very little profit, the truth is that the direction that everything is being given is due to the NFTs, the metaverses and if some type of Airdrop can be done that has to do with the metaverses, it would be interesting to try it, perhaps for things change a bit there.

if it is calculated from 100% I feel that I have 60% luck in the CMC Airdrop, from 60% of my luck, I don't feel any benefit, only fatigue that I feel.
because the distribution of prizes is not in accordance with what was promised I don't know what the reason is.

A well calculated exploitation from some greedy teams, it is a complete waste of time to participate in those so-called airdrops these days,
The worst part is - all the participants are required to carry out some social media task, imagine if half of 300k actually did the task and then just only 1000k got selected then the rest participants must have carried out the task for free without getting anything in return.
Out of every 10 airdrops, only 2 can be considered worth the time and effort, the rest of them are a waste of time.

On it's early time it used to have higher chances. But as many people now know about and participate, the luck factor have grown. Furthermore, they have increased the social task needed to be done to participate. That's why I've stopped participating in it. The rewards and chances of getting them are low while the hassle is larger. Airdrops are not worth the time anymore anywhere.

It’s very difficult, and the projects cannot limit the number of people that are participating, because they too, their main aim of doing airdrops is because they want to gather as much users and investors as possible, so they wouldn’t limit the number. If they were limiting the number of those that can register to the number that the airdrops would be enough for, then it would be enough for everyone that has participated.

Since there isn’t any limit, everyone wouldn’t be able to receive the airdrops, just few that will be luckily selected to receive it. Though I have seen one airdrop where they did it based on early birds (those that came first were the ones that received the airdrop).

That’s how airdrops works, they don’t give the airdrops to everybody, only a selected few would receive the airdrops. Never really works for me. I have tried airdrops a lot of times and they never really work for me after a long time of hard work. So, I have decided to stop doing airdrops and focus on other things that I can do in the community. But, there are people that it works for , if you’re lucky you would be among those that would be selected by the project’s  team.

I think the key in airdrops is to be applying to so many airdrops as much as possible, and that would multiply your chances of winning one. If you’re apply for just a few, then your chances of winning is very low.

I've never been in an airdrop that must be a winner, maybe it can be followed if there are more than 5000 winners or for all better, luck doesn't come for 100 different people, they even have a cheat way to apply hundreds of accounts in one airdrop, I think it's a system unfair.

I took part several times and was unlucky more than once after that I do not take part in such events on their platform.The same story is with the diamonds from the coinmarket, it is also impossible to catch a prize there.

Like zero. I have participated several times and only won once. CMC's airdrop system is damaging its own reputation. They have a system that doesn't please anyone. It is not possible to control their systems. I do not trust. Therefore, I disagree with CMC's airdrops. I think it's a waste of time. It is more important to use time for useful things. :)

Airdrop winners are randomly selected. Although only a few airdrops do give out their tokens to all the participants. Airdrops are mostly based on referrals programs. The more you refer people, the more eligible or chances you are to get the airdrop token. Referring is the main reason why I stopped partaking in airdrops cos I don't have anyone to refer to.

I have been participating in a lot of airdrops on coinmarketcap for several years, the tasks I do to participate are easy and anyone can do them, but the percentage of luck is very small if the number of participants may exceed millions, fortunately, the Greenex project was the only project that I was one of the 10,000 winners who won 250 GNX, and the number of participants exceeded 700,000 participants.

250 GNX, that is 6 cents, based on Greenex current price (https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/greenex), or little above 3 dollars if we  take GNX highest price. Isnt it a great example that airdrops are total waste of time? I understand that for someone 3 dollars can be a significant amount, someone might participate with multiple accounts. But compete against 700k participants to get few dollars, specially when you have to answer question (answers can be googled, but still it takes time) and it is not single click and your are in. I believe that free time cost more.

MODEX or MDX coin is my most lucky airdrop on CMC because I earn almost 200$ after many shit airdrop on CMC reward and some of CMC airdrop is not success get coin yet. Now I see have many worth airdrop on CMC with allocation higher than usually, last days I see have CMC airdrop reward almost 20k participants and I think is most bigger allocation reward giving but keep first come verse who success created on the early and filling form have chance to qualify received CMC coin airdrop, but if you late and participants have more than qualify needed you have less chance to earn coin.

Honestly speaking I never won in that CMC airdrop since last year that's why I realized that it's just a waste of time that's why I stopped joining with those so-called luck base airdrops, especially in the too many participants airdrops offered by the CoinMarketCap it's better joining on the bounty with an escrow guaranteed payment rather than those so-called random airdrops.   

I participated in almost all Coinmarketcap airdrops within the time and never get so lucky to get rewarded from CMC. It is a full luck bases game and there are 100 times more people were joining these airdrop so the chance is getting rewarded is very much low. I think from now on I not going to waste my time on these airdrops because it provides nothing always.

Well, the fact that there are millions of participants, the probability of you winning is just almost 0. The rewards are too low too and these programs are just meant to have awareness and hype for the token itself added by passing the requirements to be eligible of putting a logo in Trust wallet. So, yeah youre correct that these airdrops are just a waste of time unless you have bots.

I got only 1-2 but that is not worth it much. Basically, the dev wants to increase the outreach of his project to amass no of people so that his project will be known in the market. In most of the airdrops, they limit the no of users, and if the users add the coin in their portfolios that would also be a plus point for the dev because that shows the strong supportive community. I would also an unlucky in Airdrops So I don't join Airdrops nowadays.

I don't have positive thoughts about cmc that's why I don't participate in their useless airdrops because they always to try to spread false information on their website for example everyday they show us useless coins in trending it's all mean they all getting paid to make worthless tokens in trend on their website which looks absolutely suspicious to me that's why I don't trust them, they all are making fool of innocent people who trust them.

Higher reward earn from CMC airdrop is $100 and have been almost last one year and I still remember because is bigger reward from several coin kind airdrop joining on CMC. Maybe allocation reward giving by that coins make all participants earn almost $100 and have easy task for joining, just input Binance wallet address and follow some social twitter account the n waiting with airdrop distribution about two weeks later after filling form.

I have also joined many Coinmarketcap Airdrops Still have not become winner in a single one. I think they select users from the start if you did airdrop first than others you will surely be on the winner list. If it selects random then my luck may not be with me.

if we talk about airdrop from CMC, then I participated many times, but received only a few times up to $ 5 payment, it's also good, the main thing there is to get to the first places, and know the answers to questions, I haven't participated for a long time lately and I don't follow it.

So you are not alone in this aspect, i joined over a dozen drops just to know the probability in which i will be able to win those drops and i never won anything and i never joined any drops after that. I joined to understand the win probability as one of the projects i am involved wanted to conducted one and wanted to know how well these drops are useful for their project. One thing we identified is that you could find many users who literally wants to earn the drops and once that is distributed there are gone forever  :D.

I think you misunderstood the question. He is not actually telling you about the coinmarketcap Learn and Earn campaign because only the coinmarketcap Learn and Earn campaign has a question system. And though the amount is small, some projects also paid well. But the person is telling you about another airdrop campaign that is like a task take entry where Coinmarketcap selects only a limited number of people, like 100 to 10,000 maximum. But most of the campaign rewards were for 1,000 people. But because of some scammers who use bots, almost 100k to 500k entries have been for projects. That is why, from 300,000 to 500,000 people, only a small number of people are chosen, and why real people cannot win. I also joined too many campaigns, but they did nothing. That's why I stopped joining coinmarketcap airdrops. I joined the Learn and Earn campaign.

Airdrop is the giving of crypto assets (coins / nft) to some people who follow the rules (Task) given by the developer as a condition to get assets that will be distributed for free.
 The purpose of this airdrop is as a way to promote their products so that people are aware of new crypto asset products.
for those who can complete the task correctly then they will get assets according to the prizes from the airdrops given.
so to win this airdrop the chance is 50:50 because the winner is chosen randomly and is determined in a small amount.
in this way it is deliberately done so that people compete to promote their coins.

Its upto luck cause task are simple and most of people could do that correctly. I participated & luckily won severely airdrops. possibly the reason is, i always check CMC for having altcoins info and upcoming new altcoins. Maybe that's why i was able to won those but for now, it become hard to win airdrops cause lots of participants but few are selected as winners but I will try to continue participation cause those airdrops are free & will be valuable

just information for those of you who are new to the airdrop in crypto. including the airdrops you follow on cmc, discord, telegram, twitter or anywhere else.
One thing you have to remember is that each airdrop winner is predetermined (limited winners). I think this is done to protect investors and to protect the project.
As is clear in the budget allocated to the project, the number of participations received was limited.
if you want to keep following the airdrop you have to be ready with the consequences.
my advice is that you complete the given task correctly, take part in the airdrop when the event is just opened, follow a lot of airdrops, don't just follow 3-10 airdrops. you should follow all the airdrops that you know because we never know which airdrops we can win.
