Bitcoin Forum

From my own experience I can tell from all the airdrops that I know the top projects were only: Vite, Ontlogy, Dfinity. All others were shitcoins >:(

It is recently that the concept of Airdrop has been abuse, I read than NEW was also airdrop and even in early days of BTC it wss airdrop to some members on BCT and Reddit forum just to build up a strong community around the project, but now what we see is that the developers farm addresses and start dumping on the community as soon as the token get listed on the exchange another thing now is that most people even dump their tokens immediately on exchange because there is no attachment to the project long term

Of course, this is the truth of life in the cryptocurrency world. I think somewhere out of 60 bounty projects there can be a current 1 worthy project and it is almost impossible to guess. But airdrop is worse than in the bounty because basically scam projects make the current airdrop since this is easier to do. But not even such projects can be earned if you come up with the mind.

It's not right to make a generalization this way. Most recently, the Hydro Airdrop had been very good winners. Nobody can call Hydro to SCAM.

Honestly, I haven’t done airdrop for a very long time, because I came to this conclusion a very long time ago!

Most of them are and that's statistic you got is accurate IMO.

I don't join airdrops even before during the days where the projects were all amazing and has a chance to emerge. But now most of them even they are offering good amount of airdrop, the value is still being determined by the demand of that project. Now most of them are bad and scams.

I support your view,  though vast numbers of Airdrops are shitcoins created by few set of people trying to see if their project can make it to the market and dump thereafter.
It is quite difficult to get a real airdrop, but they are still out there,  recently some people still made cash from coinMD, Energi, while I  benefited mostly from exchange coin airdrops and still benefiting from Staker STR every weekend.

For now. Yes. Many airdrops have been abused. But some of them were successful. If there are better airdrops. I will continue to do so. If one of them is successful. Then we earn very objective profits from it. So. Don't be too pessimistic.

don't forget also that bitcoin cash is a coin that comes from airdrop bitcoin. stellar also comes from airdrop and these two coins are in the top rank.

Yes for airdrop that (the project team) did not held an ICO, not being listed on an exchange was the reason it become a useless coin/token. Unlike a project that did both airdrop and ICO, which has money raised for coin/token listing on an exchange and also for development.

You are right but what am not sure of is the percentage. I have quit participating in airdrops for sometime now due to the fact that majority of them will end up being either a scam or a worth less project. I got an airdrop reward I took part in the beginning of this year just last week and the value of all I got was 26 cents. It is so disheartening.

I think this is not all the project is shitcoins, they just want to promote their project and attract the investor, so launched the airdrop is a good way to make this project popular support, but it waste your time to join any airdrop.

You do not just bring up any statistical data without doing proper research on a subject matter. You can just say that "Most of the airdrops i participated in ended up as shitcoins, except for...". With that, you won't end up making general assumption.
There were some airdrops i participated that are still very much relevant. I can remember the likes of ENU, TWIST and some others.

airdrop has turned into a method of advertisement which is why the projects doing it are so bad. with a single action you can get an army of shills advertising your shitcoin while you enjoy the profit you gain from the pumps they do and the dumps you perform from your premiened stash.
this opens up room for a lot of scam projects to just copy the code from some other coin and create a new useless token and dump it on the market.

HYDRO airdrop is my best airdrop. they gave 222222 hydro free to users. also once it was valued around $3400. anyway im still holding it longterm. yes airdrops are mostly scam or useless. but not all. we need to be lucky to catch a good airdrop

Maybe right since the airdrops were getting worthless to do in the 2018 so those projects also don't have any potential to be invested that is why we call them as shit coins.And all the potential projects maybe postponed their ICO and bounty because the condition for the crypto currencies is not good now so launching a new coins at this time may not get much profits.

The Truth is that most of airdrops now are just not genuine. So many of them tend to use it as a means of scamming airdrop participants. But the rest of them are willing to offer good tokens to airdrop participants.

yes, for now most of airdrop project is become useless cryptocurrencies, but not all
but, i think if an airdrop coins or tokens still have a value, you still have a luck  ;)

Now most likely no longer works, too many people have come who do not benefit, so such marketing kills the project. Why give away money if it doesn't do any good?

I agree not at all airdrops campaign  are not  shitcoin ,,base on my expirence ,although some of them are true that will become shitcoin but maybe depend upon to the project if will succeed or not..

As of my experience I prove to myself that most airdrops that I recently participated or joined are scam / providing shitcoins. Those coins that are just good to be displayed in our wallet. Those coins that do not have value or if it has , lower than 10 $ or 5$ but still the price keeps going down. Up to now, I cant trade in because some are not listed in exchangers.

Yes, it is. Stay away from most of the airdrops.

yes, most airdrops are bad and not worth it. although there is a good airdrop now and then, finding it is difficult. i have given up looking for it and prefer to use the time differently.

Whether it is airdrop or not, most of the coins are garbage. So optimistic one or two, continue to invest in them, and other behaviors are not worth the candle.

Yes it is, take it from me, I've joined over 100 airdrops and all of them together are now worth less than 20$ (most didn't even pay out 6 months later)

Not all of the airdrops are shitcoins because most of my coins are from the airdrops and from the bounty campaigns you just need to check carefully the airdrops before you join on it so that you will not waist you time in joining the airdrops.

thats true unfortunately,  but almost people do airdrops because of have chance to get good  coins, but it very rare

Airdrop is a great way of building up a community. So, most of the ICOs offer airdrop at the very beginning in order to build there community so that their project may success. Among them, most of the ICOs fail to either raise enough fud to run the project or scam people's money. That's why airdropped coin become shits in most case.

Projects are almost all excellent. But about 20 percent will survive from them in the next couple of years. They will successfully introduce their technologies and become global corporations 5 percent.

closer to 99.5 % really I would estimate.

I'm quite the optimist though so take that with a pinch of salt

there are a few excellent projects flying under the radar but I would not imagine most people who have not been studying this entire arena for years are likely to find them

Yes, this is true, 99% of the Airdrop in which I participated did not pay me anything, and those that paid did not go to the exchange. Those that went to the exchange cost ridiculous money. Then what's the point? It is better to take part in a bounty or play a crypto game.

It is true that there are so many AIRDROPS are shit and just a scam.
but giving a 99 percent grade on the bad side is not a good to say.
i will tell you more than 50% but not going to 90. there are so many good airdrops.

Most of the airdrops projects are a scam. They start ICO and get promotion with sp-called airdrop, I mean free advertising with people like us who don't care what the project is. By using us, they make some money. That's why most of the airdrops are shitcoins.

We know that there are many bad projects, so don't let ourselves get trapped in those things. If you have many experiences then it's good for you, it will make you easier in classifying the good project. Learn more about the project, so you can choose the best project for your investment.

Yes, I totally agree.
We are not in the year 2016-2017, when big altcoins were born. We are in the year 2018 when all cryptocurrencies are crashing, big altcoins are loosing on value, and do you think that some small altcoins can give you something free? No!   :)

Yes, it's true I think. Probably the good coins will be provided during bounty or ICO. I'm not saying that airdrops is silly stuff, but I thinks it's not as serious as ICOs and bounties.

You should go and search for more airdrop even there are a lot of shitcoin airdrops there some ICO's or crypto that give a decent amount of airdrops . Also if have money why do airdrops only if you can invest in airdrop to holders promotion wherein you can get extra coins for buying their coins .

In now a days lot of airdrops would not worthless because of lot scam projects. sometimes there would be so few airdrops of demanded projec's. anyone shouldn't completely depend on aidrorps. always keep touch with airdrop channels, don't miss of there is good airdrops of very demanded projects.

No that's not true. Many intentionally or unintentionally spread such information about tokens. In fact, tokens are very useful for improving the quality of human life and therefore they play a large role among cryptocurrencies. Of course, there are many useless or fraudulent projects among them, however, in conditions of unregulated ICO process, this is normal. ICO projects should be carried out and the number of new tokens should grow. The market will leave only the necessary ones.

If I remember correctly, Nano (ex-Raiblocks) has also went through the massive airdrop. So this is another one that should be included in the OPs post of very profitable airdrops of HQ projects. But yes, 99% of them are shitcoins, so people should gravitate towards different means of earning crypto.

Many of them - yes! But with the same success, we can say that the majority of ICO's are scam. There are a few projects, but pretty good, which has chosen the way of distribution - airdrop. All you need to do is study the project very carefully.

I think this is all relative. Because you may be lucky today, and tomorrow you will lose. You can't guess at what project you grow up.

You actually mentioned all the airdrops I missed and I felt so bad for missing out on the opportunity. Aside those airdrops, all the airdrops I have been filling hasn't yielded any meaningful thing.

99% is maybe a little bit overexaggerated rate, but 80% of airdropped coins will be never listed in any exchange and we will never see this project ready, that's why I believe all these airdrops are just waste of your time.

From my experience of participation in airdrop companies, I realized that 80 - 90 percent is a Scam. I saw several posts in which people told how they participated in more than 150 airdrop companies and of them were successful only 10 - 20 airdrop.

You have to sift through a hell of a lot of shitcoin airdrops before you find one that is worth anything. in my opinion it would be better if you simply researched a good bounty and then supported it for their coins. At least you will have something at the end of it

Perhaps, a relatively high percentage aren't worth it due drastic fall of price from ico price. and most of the airdrop giving project do lie about the worth of the tokens, all they do is state the value of the token on listing, not ico price. I made $75, $20, #20, $30 and about $50 from No BS Crypto, Apollo, Kava, Bread, and Avinoc respectively, and all these were airdrop.

but bitcointalk has always met a lot of negative information regarding air drops. It always scared me and I did not engage in this type of activity. But I would like to know the real percentage of opportunities to earn this way.

Yes right, 99% of all airdrops are shitcoins from bad projects. I agree with the 99% percentage, because it is very difficult to find projects that will truly succeed and successful projects also do not guarantee their tokens will succeed in the market with a decent exchange rate. So to reduce losses in investing or even just participate in their campaign program because it is a waste of time, it would be better for me to avoid it.

LOL 99% is a bit exaggerated, but scam projects have almost taken over the space. They load you shitcoins and dump them at the exchange even you do as a token hodler. A classic example of such scam project is Kingxchain. The team concentrated on listing the tokens on the exchange and it seemed as though they no other mission like developing the project. That was a red flag for me, and just a every scam project out there, they dumped their tokens at the exchange and totally crashed the price.

Yep, you are right, NANO was also perfect :P By the way, VITE adding smart contracts to the NANO design.

There are still many projects with airdrops that are real, but if you look at the overall number, now more than 80% of airdrop projects are fraudulent!

There is something to be said for projects that have good social media strategies for promoting the initial offering. Airdrops would be a better way of collecting shit coins in hopes of one of them mooning.

Airdrops have become a way for some to get visibility, get listed on an exchange then dump and run.  You will get some decent ones amongst the rubbish, back in the day when airdrops were new it was fair don't get me wrong there were still scams but nowhere near as many as nowadays.

I know that day when a project that creates airdrop really having commitment with their project and not just money grabbing like today.
Most of the project that did airdrop today are ended up delisted even in a small exchange nothing to be expected from that anymore.

There are now many Scam projects on the market today. They use Airdrop to attract the attention and investment of the community. But besides, there are still many true projects with great drops of air for their community. Therefore, choosing the right projects before deciding to sign up for Airdrop is of utmost importance.

Yes many airdrops are scam but not all. We got it free so for me if you did not want to become victim of scam airdrop   just sell your airdrop token and dont buy back again. If you think that airdrop token come from legit project hold it and buy more. Do a research first before make a desicions.

No buddy, doing airdrop is like bounty and ICO investment, there are bad projects, and there are good projects. You must analyze and research about the project before joining.

I think the same. Almost all new airdrops are scam or shitcoins that have no future. I stopped doing airdrops because this is just a waste of your time. If you want to get some free tokens then it's better to do bounty but the main thing here is that you should choose projects very carefully.

It is not true
It is fact that airdrops is now an avenue for fake projects and scams project
But it is still factual for the real projects

All that is important is discover the gem out of the generals

No, I don't believe this rate is %99. There are many shitcoins in the projects that make Airdrop campaign. But also there are good projects which the make airdrop campaigns. I think maybe %65-70 airdrop campaigns can be shitcoin.

It is true. But 1 year ago even shit coin could bring you thousands of dollars.
now situation is completely different and you should sort out projects to gain something

Yes, it's true, many airdrops created to collect information about users for future use, or create a project to scams.

 I agree with you lately ,It becomes like a fever spreading everywhere, many projects without any reasons to adopt Blockchain and so they give Airdrop  against nothing to do!

I think you just do not image total amout of scam ICO's which conduct airdrop :) the figure of 99% is very close to the truth.

I participated in airdrops quite a lot of times and only 2 times I got good coins from EXRT and HYDRO, several times there were distributions for a couple of hundred dollars, but these projects very quickly ceased to exist.

Probably in recent times it is really possible to think so, because lately there have been very, very many projects that are being created based on our own interest, and this is all that is on the market today.

where you know that the above project is a recommendation for everyone, I want to research a project that you think is good.

most likely the problem is that you do not know how to properly select good projects. I think that the percentage of fraudulent projects is much less than 99 percent

If it's some new coin airdrop with 100 tasks to fulfill, yes than its most probably shitcoin. But there are legitimate airdrops of coins that are rewarding you for already holding some coins. There were BTX airdrop for coin holders and many others. Airdops for neo holders, for waves comunity token holders etc...

I do not believe you would find 1 good airdrop from 100.

You may be lucky to find 1 good airdrop from 10 000

You may also make better use of your time by enjoying your life instead of putting yourselves through all the hopes and shattered dreams.

POW is the only way to distribute tokens/coins

for me 100$ ico airdrops are waste of time. specially Eth based tokens. although if the airdrop is of a token which is listed in a exchange then I consider joining that for sure. I always join Airdrops that are of good projects. otherwise I don't.
the icos who airdrop do not really care for the participants. they just care about the number to increase.

I don't know about 95% but 50% of them really don't look like real. And this is why I don't invest my money in new coins since 2016 year

I do not think that. The altcoins have their own uses and it works with other partners to make the blockchain technology even more popular. But all manipulation is related to Bitcoin and USDT, which is true. I know the ICO projects are bad now but because the market goes down so everything is very difficult. You should sympathize for them.

I'm not sure if "99%" but all these fake airdrops only want to get your email address (expect spam messages) or want to have many followers in social media platforms, or they are hoping that you to enter your private keys in the airdrop form.

The truth is that about 95% of ICO projects and startups do not survive in the market conditions. It might have been good projects, but projects better which ousted them from the market. IMHO

Last year there was a number of airdrops and forks that you could make money from. All Bitcoin forks were worth something. If you had 10 BTC you were making at between $100 and $1000 every time if you only remembered to cash out the new fork. Airdrops were also pretty nice. Stellar lumens were a pretty valuable coins, bytes as well. Then there was yobit coin that also was worth some money.

Yes, I think that's true. All that is connected with free airdrop reminds me of something alms given to poor people. I would not participate in it because for me it is unacceptable.

I dont think so that most of airdrops are bad projects. For example I have participiated in EOSISH airdrop, it is one of the top in recent times, and I suppose it will be profitable.

It is near to that figure of percentage but there are still legit airdrops to participate you should only be picky to a ton of projects that launches campaigns every single day, do not count the number of projects that you are joining you should also consider their quality and legitimacy, it's true that there are bad and fraudulent projects that request a lot of tasks but still in the midst of those scams you can always dig hidden gems.

Actually, I have only two experiences joining airdrops. From the two, one is listed on the exchange and I got nice rewards from it. the ways are also very easy with the very ease and common tasks. But, one airdrop was scam. They were like legit but in fact they were scammers. Well, in this case I cannot say that 99% is shitcoins. It will depend on the projects and how much you will get.

There are many good projects and there will be even more !  Delve into the idea and technology , but be careful not to invest all the money that you have !

Yes, I think you are right. I participated in 100 airdrops and recieved only 3-4. But now I participate only in airdrops whch tokens are traded on any exchange. For example, aelf is a nice one.

I think that it is impossible to say so and generalize everything. Because her everything can be smooth and perfect. Of course, each coin can find not very good projects. But still ethereum will remain the best altcoin.

Airdrops have been abused in recent time with a lot of shit coin all around which never make it to the exchange and at that becoming worthless because you can not trade them when there not listed, but before now it was not so airdrop was a great way to created awareness about a new project and in that they give out free coins through airdrop even bitcoin at it early stage engaged in airdrop.

They are really bad eggs. its true that 99% of all airdrops are shitcoins of bad projects!! iI personally have stop campaigning for them .

for now
yes ,
even bounty also same recently.
well
airdrop is a airdrop
who know what will be
dont be have a big hope just from what they say , i mean team behind the airdrop scene.

I agree with your opinion. airdrop for now lacks trust and if any, those who get kpin will immediately sell it if the coin is in the market.

Irrespective of the fact that the space is crazy with so many scammy projects out there it is not proper for you to generalize it. 99% is almost 100% with a difference of 1% , so the Gap is too little how about you reduce it down to 45% legit while the other 55% are scams I will agree with that. There are good Airdrop out there, carry out more research about what you participate in to avoid waste of time.

That means developer need to change their strategy back like in past when airdrops is very complicated to join and we do some task like what developer said and then we can get tokens. But some of them think if social media is trend to build community for now.

Unfortunately it is true and most of such cases is just non sense airdrops.
I participate only in top airdrops, filling 100+ google forms isn't for me, I select projects!

This question has been answered many times and I believe the major agree that on the average airdrop is a waste of time except you don't have any better thing to do with your time.

Based on my experience in airdrop, I can say that 99% of it is garbage. I did not have any good payments from any of them and I realized that this is a bad idea.

Well, from your own experience, if only 3 were worthwhile and the many hundreds of others were a waste of time, then maybe that is pretty close to 99% are bad projects.
So actually, saying 99% are terrible might not be such a wild number lol.

Last year, airdrops were nice events, mostly rewards for hodling a coin.
Then we had Deep Onion that distributed it's coin exclusively through airdrop.
Now, we have every single project handing out coins for free for just signing up to telegram and stuff like that.

Of course the value of the token will be zero.
Projects in crypto act as if they can make money from nothing.
Just creating tokens and giving them out actually guarantee that your project is worthless.
But, at least now we are seeing the ICO and Airdrop bubble popping, hopefully a lot of shit projects will die.

Many treat airdrop as making money but it's not the way of making money. Project team do airdrop just for the project awareness. So, Good thing to support the project or invest in for the more value  ;)

It is hardly to believe the authenticity of airdrops nowadays. I have listened to some of my friends that have been in crypro before how they have benefited a lot from airdrops. But I think the reverse is the case now, even if it is not 99% of airdrops that are shitcoins of bad project then it is very closer.
It got to a point I decided that I won't participate in airdrops again except those ones that comes with the bounty I so much believe in.
I have participated in numerous airdrops months ago, I have not received about 95% of them. The only 5% I have received, it's 0.1% of that on exchange market.
Many airdrops are really frustrating.

Yes it's up to us and it depends which type of airdrop do we participate, again most of the airdrop are just shitcoins and some of them don't get listed soon and it's a cheap marketing tactics.

Previously, airdrop brought a normal income, but not all. Now the number of good projects has greatly decreased and the income from them, respectively, has also decreased. I don't see the point of participating in them, it's a waste of time, I think.

Of course, do you know the purpose of airdrop? it is to build community to share small amount of coins worth under 10 ICO price not market price. when you earn 10 USD value it is not the value. If the coin in market is only about 1 or 2 USD. Now to send 1 or to USD via eth tokens are very expensive gas, It is not good airdrop. Fake developers like airdrop because the coins are not popular.

and also it usually exist to trigger someone to pump the whole market so that the developer could take the advantage of the situation but dumping the coin
most of the time developer that are scumbags will reserve huge amount of token and only small amount of that determined portion will be distributed

All I know is that all airdrop programs are shitcoin because as long as I follow Airdrop I never get coins that have quality when I get it and it all ends up just as a decoration on the wallet so I think not to do airdrop because it only wastes time though not all the airdrops but reality what happens is that the airdrop coin doesn't have a good price, even many don't get the price.

There are actually very few project that did airdrop and they are such a huge success, unfortunately all those project exist exactly at the early stage of the airdrop.
Those project are so good at keeping up that the main purpose of their airdrop is simply seeking attention while the project progress is still continuing really good.

not all shitcoin is just a few coins that become shitcoin so that other coins are affected by the amount of shit coins in circulation, I think if there is continuous shit coin, investor confidence will continue to decline and the bounty hunters also disappear

I think 99% of the ICOs is an exaggeration, in fact the statistics are inflated a lot because they take failed projects as scams too, when in fact they are projects that were mismanaged or simply did not raise enough funds at the end of the ICO, so you can not put all the projects in the same bag.

What you mean by that? Airdrop? You just get a small amount of coin by joining an airdrop. Why you expecting to high from airdrop. Even the coin price is not high, you can't say that are just a shitcoin. But, i will not comment about bad projects.

That is close to reality when i myself has also experienced that. I am an active airdrop hunter before (hence my name) and i am always looking for airdrop everyday and i participate each one of them as much as i could but at the end of the day, i received nothing. Some of the tokens that i received are just staying in my wallet and is no update about when it will be listed on the market yet.

I don't think that majority of the projects that are having airdrops are bad. But rather I think those are the ones which have succeeded on its tokensale period. Based on my experiences, those projects that are eventually having airdrops after the crowdsale are those which have performed well during its sale. And also, generalizing is not a good idea because opportunities might be missed.

I also can tell that there are hundreds of shit airdrop in the market, and I wonder when will these stop it has no value now and in the future and still more and more airdrops are coming made me wonder if all of these airdrops are with the same admins that just refreshing or repeating their projects.

maybe not the 99% of them, but for sure the most part are shitcoins and bad project.

No, It is not true. My friends got $600+ on airdrop, which the project doesn't start ico or any raise fund. What do you think, OP? I know airdrop is only for getting a subscribe or followers, therefore many people do cheating

that's right bro. because there are so many since bad projects. so that it will have a negative impact on the world of cryptocurrency bro.

Really? May I know is which project airdrop $600+ to participants? that project already listed on exchange? If yes, that's not a small amount of airdrop in current bear market, I know that last year airdrop have more value in peak market, such as oyster, airdrop tokens value more than $5K, but price already drop a lot right now, main reason for project doing airdrop event is want to increase their follower, high chance to get more investors

Well, of course not 99% but most of the projects really is shit that is nothing in fact is not worth it and many people do not understand this buy assets at very inflated prices

I will have to agree with this assessment, so many of them are shitcoins so they are trying to get people to get their coins so they start to use airdrops as bait when they know that they will never end up paying out the coins that they have promised people for the airdrop. It is just better for you to just do bounty campaigns, as most of the airdrops are shit coins

Lol, how on earth do you know that they are up to 99%? Anyone telling you that is seriously joking. Yes there are lots of shit coins and there are also very good coins with good potential and can drive income to your direction within a short-term. But you can’t tell shit coins easily, that’s why sometimes you might need help if you’re still new to it. Lots of people fall into that trap and lose their money with no way to get it back.

This is very close to the truth, because according to statistics, most of the airdropos do not even go to the stock exchange, and remain only numbers in your wallet. The very purpose of airdrop is to attract as many people as possible and create noise around the project.

Sad to say but, yes it is true that 99% of airdrop is either scam or shitcoin. It is because there is no regulation in creating a new ICO. It is also easy to create a new coin from different platform like Ethereum platform and Waves platform and today there are new platform that is available in the market that is why expect more shitcoin by next year.

There are many good projects that do airdrop to create a fomo in their community. Not all airdrop is scam, only the new token is scam because airdrop can not help their project succeed and have a strong community

Yes most them are shitcoins, a good percentage of them actually have no intention of actually paying out the coins and when they pay out the coins they are either useless because they are not listed on any exchange or they are worth very little. This is why I do not waste my mind doing airdrops, there is no point to doing them when most of them don't even pay out

 Airdrops happen to be mistreated within current period along with lots of shit gold coin throughout that in no way allow it to be towards the trade as well as from which getting useless simply because you can't industry all of them whenever presently there not really detailed, however before it had been not airdrop had been a terrific way to produced attention in regards to a brand new task as well as for the reason that they provide away free of charge cash via airdrop actually bitcoin from this earlier phase involved within airdrop.

Unfortunately 70% of tokens have no value and immediately after the completion of the ICO it will rapidly fall in price which then never rises. Need to carefully research projects. But some will rise later, so investing now matter of time (2-3 years)

if you take the whole world as a whole, such successful companies as Microsoft or Google, you can count on the fingers, all as in life, only 1 percent of what is global, and the rest is all small and medium-sized businesses.

Unfortunately it is true. Airdrops are made to attract the new audience to an ICO. But airdrops tokens are distributed after the token is live on exchanges and has already lost a lot of its original price. So at the end airdrop worth 0,30 cents.

Airdrops are already overused inside latest moment together with plenty of shit coin all over which usually by no means ensure it is for the swap and also within which turning into pointless due to the fact you cannot business these any time right now they're not necessarily outlined, yet prior to this it absolutely was not too airdrop has been a powerful way to developed consciousness of a fresh venture and also because they offer out there totally free money by means of airdrop also bitcoin with that early on period employed inside airdrop.

Unfortunately, it is true, because the airdrop tokens are usually worth 1 dollar or less and they are also distributed to the participants few months after the exchange listing. If the tokens arrive to your wallet, you will get 10 cents.

It's sad but it's true. For a bounty like that, when the project was listed at its price exchange it was 0.1$ but until I got the token it was only 0.005$, and I had to face it

I think you're mistaken. No need to speak for everyone. If you have an opinion, it doesn't mean that other projects were bad. For example, I like completely different projects. Like other people. I think I'm not alone !

do not easily believe the result of the airdrop. not degrading however it is essentially what the resulting from the airdrop could not expect possible. even the pure of coins for long enough to have a good price in the market. Indeed there is still some airdrop that produces but does not much like what appears at this time.

yeah that's right, almost all airdrop is shitcoins and scams, therefore I don't follow airdrop anymore and the results are a little.

Totally agree , very little came of coins that somehow develop in the future , and if something worthwhile comes up then I would advise you to just sell )

Airdrops make very little profit now. It seems to me that this type of earnings has died and we must look for new ways to get free coins.

The belief in the development and promotion of new projects has already weakened so much that the developers themselves with managers are not interested in holding shares, because in fact they have nothing left to do when they sell a significant part of how much they eat in the first days.

I think this your survey is seriously limited and not objective. Despite the fact that it's  true to an agreeable extent, I must say you have limited your survey. There are still a wider range of ones still benefiting people. From my side, I can say of one that I have participated in which got a lot of rewards for me; Helbiz.

Not all airdrops are shitcoins, deeponion was airdropped and there is a solid development team pushing it forward, new exchanges and features coming out all the time. Most airdrops though are just a waste of time, choose carefully.

Maybe if you join to 100 airdrops you will get 10-20 bucks, not more. I have many airdrop tokens which cost around 1 or 2 bucks. So, unfortunately, it is a waste of time.

This is true, not all projects that run Airdrop are scam. Hydro is a good example of a successful project that launched Airdrop. TRON, being a successful and active project, launched Airdrop and presented TRX tokens to increase the popularity of its coins. Recently, Stellar launched Airdrop for $125 million in XLM tokens. I know a few more such examples, so there are good projects, but most of the projects that run Airdrop are scum.

This is already true. If someone does not believe that they can try it on their own, know that the rewards task here is falling, ICO will soon lose the market, and future bounty hunters will be unemployed.

Airdrops era ends, i am compare it with faucets.
They once will be popular also, but today all forgot this little income earning

It is true that Airdrop wins more from holding Airdrop. But if someone is satisfied with receiving a large number of tokens worth a few dollars, then you can participate in Airdrop. After all, not all people know how to trade on the stock exchange, make articles for different projects, create video reviews and so on.

If we often participate in airdrops, then we will find that our wallet has no revenue, which also proves that the quality of airdrops on the market is very low!

for the moment you can say that. but not 100% was a mistake from the bounty, or indeed they intentionally committed fraud. I think this is more the effect of the crypto market that fell so that it affected the ico and decreased investor confidence and impacted the small amount of funds obtained for ico.

At the moment, no one airdrops can bring more money, except some project is listed on exchange. For now bounty is very difficult to earn money because fail project and scam.

in fact, this is the statistics, so far it is, for the possible fraudulent actions of some scam projects all possibilities are open, besides this it becomes much more difficult for just and decent working projects, but at the same time the market is also quite wide. And after entering the stock exchange, many tend to sell instead of holding coins ... Many also drop out at the time of collection, because they did not raise money, and the tokens sent out cost nothing. Only time will tell if the necessary projects have been chosen, I leave hope to those who do not give up and continue to work in spite of any difficulties ...

The quality of airdrops now has reduced drastically compared to the previous years. Now airdrop form filling becomes so tedious and at the end of the day, you get little or nothing from it. There are many scam projects also but I would still say there are genuine projects too but not as much as the bad projects out there. Most airdrops pay very very little these days which amounts to nothing most times.

Indeed, there are many that are included in  shitcoin category for airdrop especially those that use the erc (ethereum) platform, but not all are still there which I think are good for example like hydro airdrop

Airdrop from the new project is definitely the worthless token, Sometimes good projects are also regular airdrop to the community, like XLM now they are airdrop 125 million $ for all users

Despite all projects you mentioned above there was Aergo airdrop and it is top as well.
But I am agree with main idea of your post, most of projects have 0 value.

nor are there some good airdrops, but it's hard to find because more shitcoin is in airdops. My advice is that we better not expect too much airdrop, it's better to focus on doing something more profitable like trading or bounty campaign

At this point in time it is necessary to recognize that airdrop is no longer relevant.But there was a time about a year ago, and with airdrop could earn a decent car)as for me personally Bitcoin red and Blue were the most profitable airdrop in my history.

I also think that there is a lot of scam among all Airdrops and you need to carefully select a project, if this is a promising project or some fairly well-known project, then you can participate and get some tokens of this project, which over time can be sold more expensive. But mostly profits from Airdrop are very low and I rarely participate in them.

I do not agree with the fact that 99% are really bad projects, because there are really cool great projects, but of course there are few of them, because most of the projects are outright shit, but this is definitely not 99%

Yes, you are right among the airdrop a lot of useless coins, which in most cases do not give anything!

Yes shitcoins now dominate, but don't put all coins together, if make a deeply research can find pearlcoins.

maybe more precisely is shitcoin of poor projects, because they don't have enough funds to promote their projects so they only rely on social media influencers
if you say that 99% airdrop is shitcoin I disagree, because there are many of them who have survived even now their token already listing in large exchanges

Airdrops doesn't really provide the benefits. airdrops just a good term in order to attract people to raise the likes, shares, member of their online groups. Joining a bounty campaign is much more beneficial, and joining airdrops takes too long to get your token and sometimes it is not that useful.

99% is exaggerated, although I don't agree that 99% of the airdrops are bad projects, I believe that at least 90% of the projects are very bad, even worse than shitcoins, that is the scam project.
Scam ico+shitcoins are the biggest problem encountered by current bounty participants, and this problem is everywhere, almost filled with all the bounty threads.
It seems that the forum needs some cleaners.

I think i will agree because i observe all airdrop that were airdropped last year are dead now they are nowhere to be found the reason is clear, they don't server any reasonable purpose no contribution to space in a positive way, those airdrop are figurehead.

Because they are air-drop. we can not require more. Most of ICO recently are scam, we must accept that the airdrop go with it will be a shitcoin. Anyway, it is your choice, you should do some more research before investing in it.

I think it's true, some Airdrop is a bad coin or an uncertain project, unless the team really wants to build the project, Airdrop will be successful, like Netkoin and Superedge. Don't expect too much from Airdrop, it's just lucky, I also have lots of airdrop tokens which still have no value.

You are right. Most airdrop projects are fake. They don't offer any rewards for hunters. They just want to use hunters to help them promote fraud projects!

The percentage of bad projects and airdrops is very high, although if you look at the statistics, I think that it’s not a big number, so I think that all of this can show you how you can still do something very profitable.

I can say that a very large percentage of such coins is really a kind of deception. But I don't think we should exaggerate. Most likely, this percentage is several times less

Just HOLD

I'm sure not exactly 99% are skam. I came across this bait and I do not think that I will fall again, as I personally have met such phenomena quite rarely and I do not think that I will meet again

Rarely participate in airdrop. I participate in Airdrop only those projects in which I participated in the bounty company.  Well, most of them are like scam. And do not go through the KYC procedure.

I know dfinity and it is not shitcoin and bad project I guess, market conditions are bad so under these conditions they can't do much good things. I hope we can see good news in next year for all these projects.

Its true that many airdrop are shitcoin. Most airdrop coin and token never traded in exchanger. But we not doing much effort to get that token and thats why i am rare join in airdrop because never landing in exchanger

I do not take part in airdrops anymore, because of this reason. I took part in 50 airdrops and have earned 5 bucks. It does not worth it guys, you are only creating mess in your social media accounts and telegram.

We lost a lot on altcoins this year

yes I make sure it's true. there are only 1 among thousands of airdrops that have a future. so if you want to join Airdrop, first learn everything about the project, don't let you produce nothing.

Totally agree , it makes them better coins sell very rare coins worthy , of course some may in the future give good money , but at the moment it is better to sell immediately

Waiting for BTC with 1k price

For me, airdrops nowadays are waste of time. It is not as profitable as it was before, where most airdrops have value. Most airdrops today has no value or most of them are shitcoin. There are projects that are listed in decent exchange who conducts airdrops to their token holders.

almost like friends, a few years ago I was always an airdrop hunter but on average I got only shitcoin and even they didn't have any interest at all, not only that, even now there were many bounties which eventually became shitcoin.

so what's your problem?
I guess if you don't benefit from that, you have to be more patient. use your skills to be able to bring benefits in this industry, and if you want profit, you can trade or invest.

I think now it makes no sense to sell something

In this market, I would not sell anything

Lots are airdrops are becoming so useless these days. Most of them are just pump and dump. From the ones i participated in, only few of them have remained as good as they used to be, such as, ENU. Others, which is the larger percentage have turned into shit coins. It got to a time, i became discouraged and i decided not to partake in airdrop again. Sometimes i even prefer to invest on them when they list and quickly take my profit.

In fact, it may be that most projects really look like something very strange, because in most cases many projects exaggerate their possibilities very much. Therefore, I think that this is possible, but the percentage is too large.

Very sad but I agree with you, airdrop has no longer too much value in the present time, although some airdrops are very good but too rare, most airdrops are just bad projects or scams, they just want to take advantage of the participants, they want the participants to advertise their projects and then disappear with the money they receive from the investors, participants will not receive any valuable tokens. The era of airdrop has ended, if we want to make money from crypto without investing, we should redirect to the bounty campaign.

there is no good project this year, everything is barely making money. whether it's from an ico investment, bounty or airdrop . there are not many who make money. most are just project scams, we have to be more careful.

I started doing Airdrops before I was a bounty hunter. My first airdrop token that can be echanged was REBL which when they first ever hit exchange amounted to arounf 2000USD. but I hodl. too bad. I was hoping if i had known better to have sold it then then rebuy after. I was new and i didnt know any better :)

On that market, I would not sell anything

We need a new ETH

Should I sell a crypto now?

And when will growth begin?

I think now it makes no sense to sell something

We lost a lot on altcoins this year

Yes, I also came a lot of coins with airdrop and most were just the slag , but others that go to the stock exchange within six months closed

Last year we had many successful airdrops, but this year most of the airdrops are penny drops and
when they enter the exchange very often without value. The declining market conditions also not favoring
airdrops.

Maybe not 99, but 98 percent, but Yes, it's true. There are people who participated in hundreds of airdrop companies and they eventually came something about 100-200 dollars.

No, not all, airdrop is just a basic task to gain an easy increase of promotion to their social media accounts. It doesn't always mean that they have shitcoins but like a bounty campaign, we can still trust it.

expect the result of the coin airdrop is a bad thing. many of the coins projects that contain only the airdrop will either serious about paying or not. many who fail when entering the market and even the most serious many have failed before the mask in the market. therefore expect results from the airdrop is too large and do not select the airdrop should be very selective.

I think that now it makes no sense to invest in altcoins :(

Just Hodl, guys

I haven't participated in an Airdrop project for a long time. maybe because the results I got at airdrop didn't match what I expected, I followed a lot of airdrop projects but those who paid only a few and that took a long time to share, since then I decided to leave the airdrop project. in my opinion not 99% of all airdrop projects are bad but only 75%.

I think now it makes no sense to sell something ...

From 40+ airdrops I participated the only one paid me its shitcoin, other are dead or decided not to pay

yeah i agree. some of the project without a clear development and make the document dead and harm many people. airdrop and selft drop are the most scam in my experience watching it

No matter how bad it may sound, I also think that most of the projects that are currently collecting fees and in the end all the same are collected, I am sure that these are very strange projects that may not develop in the future.

I don't think so, there are still many quality airdrops out there. all we have to do is choose and observe first before following airdrop so you can get good results. a lot of projects are spread right now which used to start from airdrop, so don't underestimate airdrop.

And what is about Precium Foundation project? is it ok?

The percentage can't be that high. If this were the case, we would never be able to make money on it. I am sure that the good coins are actually several times more

Unfortunately, the market situation has a negative impact on project fees. According to available data in 2018, only 4% of ICO projects collected soft cap. This is catastrophically small and scares off investors, the chances of choosing a good project are very small. Therefore, participation in airdrop or bounty campaigns now looks like a dubious kind of earnings.

Yeah, it's pretty hit or miss.  So consider that when you're choosing how to allocate your time.  If a project is likely to fail, or no value pans-out, then maybe your time is better spent elsewhere.  Opportunity cost is a very real thing, and you should keep it in mind.

Of course that's not true.  I think we could earn enough at least because its a great coin and projects it was much more. Now it is necessary to think about the fact that in fact the percentage is growing and you need to hurry to earn

I guess it's not 99% of all airdrops are shit coins of bad projects which are just being abandoned by their developers maybe I could say that 90% on all of those airdrops are total garbage or just shitcoins but I still do believe that there are still legit on them because I was able to earn many times from those airdrops.

Gone are the days when airdrops had value, this days scam projects are distributing airdrops in order to increase the circulating supply of their tokens or coins.
Airdrops this days are too little to trade and most times are just useless as utility tokens.

You can say that again and there are so many people here that had enough with this useless airdrop because they do not offer something to do the community out of 100 airdrops only 5 or even less are legit, I prefer joining airdrops with an ICO project that all the people behind it had a good name.

So far this year alone I've joined over 50 different types of airdrops and only 8 of them paid and even among the 8  only 3 of them are good ones like avinoc ,Apollo and ABC coin,all the rest are plain rubbish and I've decide to stop participating in any airdrop

in airdrop program we need our luck.not all airdrop program give us lot money.most of them just be shitcoin in our wallet.maybe the best airdrop program for me was ebtc and mbrs token.this token give me lot money.

The allocation obtained by everyone for airdrop is usually very small, if the price is cheap then we will not get much profit. Another case if the price is high. Not all airdrop comes from a bad project, but there are other things that affect it, as I mentioned above.

There are still many good Airdrop programs and if 99% Airdrop is bad, I don't think so. Good Airdrop is from the ICO project. The ICO project certainly has a good development team and continues to develop the project. And the Airdrop token is better to hold.

indeed participating in airdrop income received is not worth it, moreover there are some airdrops that need KYC, where the tokens obtained are very few but require the cyc to get the tokens I think it is not worth it, and the worst is there are some airdrops at all do not pay their tokens to participants, or you could say scam airdrop.

Yes, the airdrops are being abused by some scammers, and I also believe that the vast majority of airdrops will not payment at the end, but airdrops are still one of the most common ways of promoting ICO, and nothing is more attractive than free lunches. So no matter how bad the airdrops are now, there will still be many people participating.

What I'm thinking about is that. Most airdrops are just really worthless coins. But what you have to remember is, not all projects that do airdrop are not valuable but indeed the fact that most projects are only coins that have no value. Therefore I am not very interested if I participate in airdrop.

I agree with you that all airdrops are worthless. Because you are spending a lot of time by participating in different airdrops, but at the end, you will get 100 tokens that are worth less than several cents.

They showed themselves very well KIN. On this coin I have accumulated valuable capital. The truth is then invested in other projects that have fallen heavily in price.

Of course not. 99% is too high statistics, you can not talk about this. I would believe 77% or 81%, but 99%...

All I know is that all airdrop programs are shitcoin because as long as I follow Airdrop I never get coins that have quality when I get it and it all ends up just as a decoration on the wallet so I think not to do airdrop because it only wastes time though not all the airdrops but reality what happens is that the airdrop coin doesn't have a good price, even many don't get the price.

I don't think so but there are the majority of Airdrops are a scam because they want to give free Airdrop coin to people who followed and joined in telegram group. Through this, they want to raise money from the community in order to cheat the people by not showing any developments after crowdsale.

probably not that much but it is indeed bad for many popping up. This is what made me stop to follow airdrop since felt unsatisfactory results. even worse many coins from the airdrop is difficult to enter the market so it could not be sold. However if clever in picking, there are some decent airdrop to follow.

I don't agree with you, many good project have airdrop campaigns, airdrop is not anything bad, it's just a marketing campaign to make the project more popular, more people know about it, we're paid token to join airdrop and many projects give up to $100 in token. It's still worth to join airdrop.

Can agree with you a lot of shitty projects. I would only be slightly reduced percentage up to 80-90. But otherwise you're right, very few really good projects, but the projects created this year I really like.

the 3 coin u mentioned i didnt heard before  :-[

Dont know who has said that %, but yep most of airdrops are scam and were made to pump and dump and moslty that airdrops are done with ERC 20 tokens but there are airdrops which were good and projects are live still now for example DeepOnion.Nxt and etc,so before joining try fidn more info as you can.

Yes, more than 90% of the airdrops are shitcoins, but there are still some airdrops that are valuable, so I think it should be 90% instead of 99%. If you participate in every airdrop, then you may not miss some valuable coins.

Yes, this is absolutely true. Many ICO projects fail when the cryptocurrency depreciates sharply. So don't easily participate in investing in ICO projects. Airdrop projects are meaningless, and now they are probably deceptive.

I used half an hour to complete and found a lot of airdrop projects every day, but I also felt very lost, because the projects distributed so far are less than 1% of my participation.

99% is a huge amount and absolutely not accurate I don't deny there are bad projects but worthy of respect too many. No need to jump to conclusions.

Many Aerodropi have no price, but since you do not spend a lot of time, you can participate in different droplets with the help of different blockchain for the future.

If that is all your own "experience", then you know very little. There are so many successful airdrop projects that I have joined. Look for the site as well as the reviews on the airdrop project you plan to attend. Everything is easier if you find out. So DON'T judge all the projects are shit.

Not only from your experience many can prove that these airdrops are all lies and useless and will not give the community anything except profit for the developers of these airdrops, in only a matter of time these airdrops will vanish.

Maybe not 99%, but many projects are either outright scammers or unable to support the work of their own project. But ultimately such coins/projects must die.
But their place will not be empty for long ). Twice as many meaningless projects will take their place. That is why it is not so easy to find among them a project that has good potential and with a team that can realize this potential.

It's right.  A lot of projects.  who, after collecting funds, immediately stopped their activities without even completing the project to the end!

Maybe i`m a looser, but all airdrops that were picked by me were scam. At least 20 drops were picked, and only 2-3 were paid after the ICO. that`s 90%

Yes, you are right but I think this is not all the project is shitcoins. It is true that now most of airdrops are bad and scams. And some are really potential. I took part in an airdrop at the beginning of this year. I got some reward. That was my last reward from airdrop. At present, I think it wastes our time to join any airdrop.

There is a good project, there is not very much but it doesn't mean that 99 % of the projects and generally bad where did you get this number ?)

Well, I wouldn't make generalization. There are some exceptions, of course. But I agree that 70% of airdrops are useless. That is why I avoid airdrops and do not participate in them.

Actually you are right. More than 90% of all airdrops as well as bounty programs are pure scam)) And that is your responsibility to choose good airdrops and bounties based their team, whitepaper and roadmap, their activity on social media and different conferences and so on. You have to get some experience and skill before you can make the right choice. Otherwise you would only lose your time and efforts.

I don't know if there are trustworthy numbers because there are so many airdrops, most projects do this which is also a very good thing because tokens are distributed. But it's also a measure to promote new scam projects and a scam ICO to collect more money.

But most airdrops are nearly worthless, just hold them in your wallet and hope that you can sell them later at a good price.

Rather, Yes than no, as more than 1 year doing bounty, and in the beginning did Airdrops, so that's all of those tokens that I received, for landing, so to speak, a simple distribution, not one did not cost the norms of money so that it can be sold,and earn, basically 99% can not even be sold, since no where is not traded

From my experienced on participating in some airdrops is very disappointing. I have joined many airdrops and few only send me some tokens and the worse part is 90% of them are useless. I'm hesitant on joining airdrop now unless they are legit projects.

No , that's not a percentage of airdrops they are also giving rewards of the participants in there project. If 99% of all airdrops are shitcoins then probably all promoted project here are scams. I think it's just often.

Yes, almost true because there are many projects out there that there only means of advertising their projects is through platform and in the long run project like this failed but there are still many good projects with good airdrops value but they are not easy to find.

Unfortunately, most airdrops today really do not deserve attention among the participants. They have no perspective concept, do not provide rewards. Therefore, I do not plan to work with airdrops yet, most of them now are just a waste of my time.

not intend to disfigure airdrop. but indeed many airdrops only contain coins that could not last long or not able to thrive in the marketplace. so this causes many hunters have complained enough of this condition and consider that the airdrop isn't too have a decent value.

It is sad, but true, 90% of all airdrop shit tokens are useless and another 9% is scam projects without future. Only one percent is really honest and interesting.

The first time oken that ever hit mew after I joined the crypto space was from an airdrop and frankly speaking I didn't even remember when I signed up for it cos like I said, I just joined the crypto market then and I can tell you am still HODLing it and it has gone more than 100X since I received it, EXRNchain and I've even invested more in the project. Yeah, most of the other ADs now are just waist of time cos you get this bunch of tokens that are just sitting in your wallet without value.

The abuse of airdrops is the same as the abuse of ICO. Countless projects attract fans through airdrops. I have participated in many airdrop missions. Only XLM's KYC Airdrop gave me coins, the rest were air, no notice and coins arrived at my wallet.

only 70 percent? I believe that only 1 percent of the air drops brings profit to the participants. air drops are useful for ICO because they collect visibility for investors

 This problem is not only in airdrop. But also in bounty companies. See how many projects come out and how many come to the end. Aerdropami generally difficult situation. I think most of them are just scam.

So whats this all about?A question or advertising?You made a bad perceptions for airdrops just to advertise yours?Lol even that holdings of yours are shitcoins so don’t spare
But we have the same outview about things because airdrops are scams and not just shitcoins so better scape from this damn activities 

This is a very sad statistic, since I also had practically all the projects failed.

We often follow Airdrop, and very often don't get paid. They take advantage of us with the many who join their media, so that their media looks more active. But when they don't keep their promises it makes us think negatively, and this is a bad thing for others who work honestly. But I want to say, not all Airdrop is the result of shit coins. But don't focus too much on Airdrop, this will make you regret when you don't get paid.

It is worth saying that, and it must be known that this is what makes the market difficult for green so that it decreases, I hope that soon a strict regulation on crypto will be made so that investors avoid scam projects.

Yes, that is right. Many projects are very bad. In such projects, either a weak team or a bad product. Also many projects can be fraudulent. But this is not only in cryptocurrency projects.

I believe that this is not such a large percentage of bad bounty campaigns. from my own experience I can say that it is not more than 50%

Most of the projects could not realize their ideas because of the long fall in the cryptocurrency market, among them there were many good and promising projects. Today the situation is exactly that.

I had stop joining any airdrop as I found out that my token/s were not worth on my effort. It takes long to get listed and the price is not enough to pay for the transaction. Although some had been lucky to get their rewards from airdrops but I will not waste my time to participate again.

Most of the airdrop tokens now have no value, because most teams only send free tokens to you, but they never do things, so their tokens are not likely to add value.

in my opinion not 99% airdrop scam but more precisely 90% because I saw some airdrop giving lot of income to some participants,You must be careful when joining airdrop so you don't work in vain

Indeed, I have to admit - today there are very few airdrops that really offer rewards and bring real benefits for their members. Of course, in 2017, the situation on the airdrops market was excellent, with fairly large rewards, but now the conditions are depressing.

Not just airdrop. now there are 90% ico that is a big fraud. since the beginning of last year ico has experienced many major changes and full manipulations this year. make many investors lose big

It is so. 1 year ago situation was better, so now you can make a trashcan of list of airdrops.
Skip this activity or make deep analysis before

There are still some other ones that are good like avinoc, but so many of them are trash ,intact 98% of all the airdrop this year alone are crap ,some never paid at all,its a shame that this is happening to airdrops that hardly worth anything

I think 90% of airdrops just scam, but airdrops almost take no time from you, so you can participate in 100 airdrops per day, even if 90 of them won't pay you'll get profit. Work hard and be patient my friend.

Now a very difficult situation in the cryptocurrency market. Airdropy does not bring profit and most coins are really useless.

In fact, airdrops are still useful and promising technology to promote various projects. Of course, the reward is small. But the tasks are usually simple. I now participate less and less in airdrops, but periodically I select promising projects for work.

It is true. Unfortunately the market is overwhelmed with fraud projects that are trying to draw attention from investors, by doing an airdrop that will give you few cents. Do not waste your time with useless airdrops.

I think its true. I only trust the established one.

Well, they take enough time, but do not get much money , I think airdrop is not worth your attention and do not do them, it is better to spend time on another time

I remembered last year, there's a lot of good quality airdrops and I earned a few hundred dollars on one airdrop alone. Others earn much by waiting early morning or wee hours at night for airdrop links. But this year, too many shitty airdrops and worthless. Not worth keeping. There are a few airdrops that are legit but yet they are of small value.

On paper, everything always looks beautiful, especially when you are promised free cheese, and as a rule, instead of cheese, you find that you have been eating shit for several months. 90% of ICO scam, of course, that even more scam will be in airdrop.

100% True!
In the past maybe some airdrops can work, of course if you sell at the moment, but for now its how faucets.
Time of airdrops past

This can be judged by personal feelings, perhaps it is true. And it turns out that this is so, because Ethereum is a popular platform where almost everyone who has certain skills can release their smart contract and tokens. As a result, there are many not only shitcoins, but also Scam projects.

Yes, it's 95-99% either junk or a Scam,or not implemented projects.I did Airdrop myself , but I can say that I have not yet received a penny for filling out the forms of these projects, I do not recommend spending time on it, especially in such a period of time that is very difficult for the market as a whole

I do not think so, because many Airdrop projects are still highly valued and are listed on exchanges like NRG, HPB, ... Before joining a project, you need to check Check it carefully to avoid wasting too much time on it because most of the projects are scam.

I stopped joining airdrops since you will only get few crypto from it. Some airdrop has a lot of tasks and requires KYC and referrals for you to be qualified for the airdrop. In my own opinion, it's a waste of time to join airdrops, not unless if you will spam your registration (which is also a form of cheating.)

Well it is very easy for you to choose these ones probably because you got some good rewards from them. Sometime around this time last year, Airdrop were the order of the day and I can still remember Hawala Today, Equal, Rebellious, Bitcoin White now Bitwhite, Hydrogen, Enu, Organic Token and good others were very productive and  I will take Hydro as the highlights of them all. Strong project with strong team, gave out good quantity for hydro and Participants that got earn good rewards from it too.

It's so sad, but true. We could to see the most part of ICO, airdrops and other, which will die for a next year or less. Selection is so hard.

This is true as I participated in the hydro Airdrop. I got got reward from it and I am still some portion of hydro till date. Every other Airdrop I have participated in later turned out to be shit, so I quite Airdrop and start Participating in Bounty which was good at a point till the bear market started. I hope the situation change soon.

I'm not agree with you, not 99% airdrops are shit, only 99.99% airdrops are shit of bad projects. Jokes a part, but seriously airdrops are just now waste of time. I'm working on airdrops from one year and in one year i get profit of only $500 approx. which is not worth it according to hardwork. So for me, airdrops are live or dead...both are equal.

I do not think that 99% of airdrops are scam, but the majority of them give only few coins which are worthless as majority of them do not reach the exchanges.
Lot of projects do not deliver the airdrop tokens at all lately.
Last year it was a different situation, there were many good airdrops but those times are behind us.

a year ago there were far fewer scams in this area. But after many learned about Bitcoin, more fraudulent projects appeared.

I think that would be an over generalization because there are so many potential and successful projects out there that offered airdrops to help spread news about their projects. The unfortunate situation that is happening these days is that most airdrops are turning out to be scams and offering coins that are not even worth holding.

Well, not really. Not every token airdropped out there is actually trash token. There are tons of token released for everyone that's actually worth something. It's just that they distribute small amounts to everyone that's why it doesn't seem to be worth anything.

Yes, the cryptocurrency airdrop mission has now been abused. There are a lot of scams here, they won't give you any coins, so the airdrop mission is just a waste of time. Few airdrop missions will reward you on time, they only need someone to serve them and not pay.

there are good projects but it's a bear market... almost everything is red for now.

Many ICOs are extending time and postponing their debut in exchanges for this reason.

In general, the concept of airdrops was somewhat different than what it has become now.  In fact, even if the project is worth the little things that offer with airdrops can not seriously be considered

Airdrops are generally shit. Because you are spending your time, subscribe to all social media of a project and enter the telegram discussion. After several months of waiting you are getting 1 USD as your reward.  :(

Of course not. 99% is too high statistics, you can not talk about this. I would believe 77% or 81%, but 99%...

I can’t say all airdrop are bad. I joined many airdrop this years, some of them were waste of time, but some of them are even listed on good exchanges. I attend also few of community airdrops this year, and I start to make friends too, we sharing our experience and knowledge, so it is all worth in the end for me.

Yes,this was not surprise for me,those who take part in airdrop tend to enter into hundreds of projects to get at least some benefit.

I would like to mention for some more projects that are not a shitcoin and that made an airdrop: Eximchain, Bread, MasterContract Token. Good projects with a real use case.

Today, airdrop is not profitable. I stopped joining these projects because it is useless. I'll wait for better times.

Not certain about the figure and percentage but that is seemingly what it is, a lot of investors are increasing losing interest in ICO investments as majority of them turned out to garbage and valueless. I think the market situation hugely contributed to it unlike late last year where some projects get huge attentions and were the attention of most investors. The proliferation brought in shitty projects and the attention of scammers, I think if the crypto market is regulated especially as regards ICO it may bring in some sanity and the lost trust

Based on my experience, Airdrop is not profitable, you are wasting your time to participant and filling ups their form. I also think that in airdrop they will scam you because some airdrops has required to pay a certain amount before you can claim their coins. I personally got lazy when I experienced to participate in airdrop then the coins/token I get was worthless its very disappointing in my side.

I think this percentage is exaggerated. If you think big, then in fact only 5% of all projects in which I participated were Skam. I do not think that 99 % can still be bad projects

It seems to me that the figure is too much exaggerated. Now everything looks much better than a year ago, so most likely bad coins and projects is about 5-10 %. This is my opinion

If that is true I think this is reasonable, because usually airdrop tokens do not have ICO. Certainly it would be very difficult to develop their project, even to listing in exchange is very impossible because this would require a lot of funds. But this does not apply if the dev behind the platform is rich people who have a lot of money, because to develop a project they will not need funding assistance from early investors.

Agree, I follow airdrops which are mostly based on ERC-20, unfortunately after I received there was no market to accept, this is what makes the market red so that it loses the trust of investors, I suggest to selectively choose airdrops.

From my prespective mostly airdrops is priceless. I never meet an airdrop that makes profits to me. About 98% of airdrops is a scam project. They did send the tokens but it never will listed on exchange. For that reason i never join any airdrops.

How do you measure "shitcoinness" of an airdrop?) By USD equivalent of gained tokens or?
In this case, do you think ONT airdrop was good and worthy?) Most of the airdrops are crap - that's for sure. But even this crap sometimes is pumped and can bring you huge profits.

Ah of course not 99 slightly less, there is decent projects which hand out airdrop , but of course in most cases many bad coins , leave in long and bad coin walk away will remain good

 The lack of technical knowledge and human greed are a breeding ground for scams.For example :

• Asking you to share your private keys. That will 100% end up with a whipped account
• Asking you to send crypto. Why would you need to send any money to get an airdrop?
• Asking for personal data
• Never click any links that are not sent from trusted sources

I only participate in signature campaign in my free time but unfortunately never got desired tokens.Thats not a big problem.But main thing is these fake airdrops are generally created by scammers themselves.So stay safe.

In addition to you listed, there were many more Airdrop quite decent projects. Apparently you just didn't participate in them.

I agree with you that now is better than last year, but I consider the percentage a little higher. about 30-40 percent -  bad projects/coins.

Personally, I used to actively participate in various promising airdrops. After all, they regularly provided rewards. Unfortunately, over the past year the situation has changed dramatically for the worse. Therefore, I participate less and less in airdrops. I really hope that next year the situation will improve.

Hi guys!

I would love to connect with your professional network. I hope you are fine.

I'm Michael Zasidkevich, co-founder TOPExperts.io. It's the first transparent rating of experts and projects in the ICO/STO market.

Please give us your feedback about usability TOPExperts - https://app.usabilityhub.com/do/81a697bcc809/936
So we can make TOPExperts ratings more convenient and understandable.

Your opinion is very important to us. Thanks

Trying airdrop for few cents out of filling the free time is totally alright as long it doesnt require that important thing called our private data.
However, it seems you really judge the value of a project based on its initial release whereas most of airdropped project need something called "progress"

Basically it is, but there are exceptions to any rule. Recently, a stellar was doing airdrop, and as the coinmarketcup shows, steller is Top 5.

I think airdrop is to help more people know more about their project, because the amount of airdrop is very low. Stellar, for example, had a very high number of coin last month. It made a lot of people know and used the blockchain wallet

yes, it seems that the reason is very basic, I see fake projects and bad ico make investors frustrated and choose to leave the cryptocurrency, especially many ico who do not have clear licenses

Hoaxes, shitty projects or the amount is so small it will never amount to anything. And then there are drops like ONT.

The statistics are far-fetched. 99% is so unlikely that you have no idea. It turns out that you can not find a successful project at all.

You're right. And there is. Airdrop in order and arrange to distribute what no one needs. This is such an attempt to create shitcoin`s liquidity (usually unsuccessful). As a result, hundreds of different shitkoins are piling up on our wallets.

I only participate in airdrops if they go along with the bounty company. In other cases, just do not pay attention. Already gone are the days when they could earn good coins. Now it's real junk.

with my experience, I agree with you that  99% of all airdrop are shitcoin, its value can not increase or it can not  attract investors.
I do not understand why are they still organize airdrop  even though their projects have no potential for the future?

You are right, 99% of the airdrop projects are fake, most of them are to deceive investors' money and hunter's privacy! I am more willing to pay attention to the bounty activities now.

Yes, most projects distribute a penny AirDrops. They even sell then hard. Rarely come across good AirDrops, so I stopped from doing.

This percentage isn't accurate cause I got only two airdrop, this coin are valuable. But most of the airdrop scam 70%-80% which also enough for scam.

I am sure that crypto currencies can change a lot. And I am sure that now the percentage is not 99, but about 50. Now I wait when everything will fall into place and there will be growth. After that, the percentage of scam will drop to 10, according to my forecasts

Vite, Ontlogy, Dfinity. Sorry, I don’t know about the three projects you mentioned. Have they ever airdropped? The well-known airdrops I know about bitcointalk are DeepOnion and semux. For other airdrops I don't know much about.
The current airdrop is really bad. I don't know why there are so many people who are passionate about airdrops every day. In my opinion, the airdrop is dead.

Not sure about exact % of shit airdrops, but some of them are good, like stellar airdrop.
it is 25 $ for sure, so i would recommend to participate in it!

No, of course it's not true. It seems to me that if 99% of the market were such, then we would not be able to earn a penny. Most likely, you should look more carefully and then it becomes clear that the numbers are less

Regardless, it is true that probably more than 90% of airdrop are shitcoins.  They have no value and just a spam token.  They do it either to get a list of email for their marketing offers to give them bulks of leads to offer to their client.  I seldom participate in airdrop since it is often a waste of time.

        Yes it is true. Unfortunately, more and more airdrops are SCAM. The happy case is to avoid the scam and get an airdrop of a bad project. I quit doing airdrops because it's a waste of time. When I received the respective coins for airdrop, they were not listed on a stock exchange until today. I chose the bounty campaigns because they are safer and the work done more interesting.

Last year airdrops are fine and I am earning from them but this year I didn't earn anything from an airdrops and it is just a shitcoins. They are all in my wallets but they're just nothing , no value at all.

With so much diversity and too many shitty projects coming in market its been really hard for people and 99.9999 % times people do not get paid and all their hard work or investment go in vain.Its better to participate in free airdrop or bounty in free time rather than wasting valuable time where there is no confirmation of getting paid or any shit tokens which can never go live LOL ;).These are all part and parcel of crypto world and with each day we may see more idiotic projects gets closed.Things have been very different from the past year so its better not to waste more time without any confirmation.

I just like you join if the bounty is airdrop , before it was less than 1000 participants , and now more than 30,000 thousand participants in one airdrop , now comes for less than 1$ , and a year ago I was getting 100-200$ per airdrop

Always loved these exaggerated figures. Why are you pointing them out? You want us to stop believing you? This is pure lying. Is there any way you can prove that?

For some reason I agree with you mate, most of airdrop is from bad project, we can see that after the airdrop is done and the token is listed the price will slump because they all dumping the coin because it's from unknown project, better fast sell than holding them, but if you get lucky you will earn some bucks

In my opinion, you are right, but not all. Although it is airdrops but somewhat good for other investors and they bought a lot this year, you didn't get anything and lost money this year, I understand  ;D

airdrop maybe be could be as side job for us.its only bonus from this crypto market.and also dont forget some of them has high price and give their participants lot of money.for example polymath, ebitcoin and other.

Yes, most Airdrop projects are just fraudulent. Several times I followed the Airdrop channel but did not get results. And when I get a token from Airdrop until now the token cannot be sold. I prefer to do a Bounty campaign because the results are far greater.

I stopped with airdrops. If they even arrive the amounts are so low that we're talking about a few dollars worth tops. Extremely small chance they will rise much higher so it's plugging the project and sometimes even half kyc to get a few $ worth....it isn't worth the hassle to me anymore. Rather focus on good movements and try to buy and sell to make some $$.

Not true.... Airdrops are payments for creating awareness of certain projects or for holding a particular coin or token. Back then, like last year and early this year, airdrops were worth it because the payments of letting people know about the project was huge and the work was not as difficult as now. Right now the airdrop is not worth it anymore, why? Because solid projects still give tokens for advertising their projects but its very little and most times worth nothing, just a waste of time. Many airdrops are not just shitcoins of bad projects but a very little fraction of good projects which makes it shitcoin because its worth nothing

Most of them are not worth of your time cause the airdrop earn are not even worth a dime. I have stopped claiming airdrop and more focus on my daily real job now. But i would admit airdrop is the best way to gather a large audience to know what are you promoting at and the best way for letting peoples know your product. 

This is the best way just to fill your chats and social networks with people, so that later on the presentations of your project you can say that you have a very large audience. this is all the false

Sometimes some bounty projects provide airdrop and indeed as you say that "airdrop is the most effective way to attract audiences" and for such airdrop I often follow it.

 :-\
I am really bored about waiting the payment from joining airdrops. It's takes really too long to wait so I didn't have the right to tell if airdrops are producing shitcoins, but based on my experience on bounty that also held some airdrops, not really. There's still good airdrops out there.

I agree because nowadays many projects are experiencing a lot of decline and this is definitely a big setback. everything can only last a few months and will disappear because of the inability to compete and the severity of the market

well, hardly 99 percent of the Scam, I think less, but most of the coins very much falls in price and does not rise, as in this market of coins do not reach even the exchanges

The airdrop scam is really very popular and rampant in this market, lots of people like you, join in the airdrop badly and the result is wasting time or just getting worthless tokens, almost everyone has started to remove airdrop from their list, then switch to bounty, looking for a new space, a place that can be safe and achieve good profits. I'm no exception, switch to bounty from very early but I'm still not giving up airdrop as many people are doing because the market still exists a few good airdrops, paying with bitcoin or tokens can be sold immediately, there is no reason to deny this money

Some are good airdrops and some are not worth anything at all. And the reality is that, most airdrops have no value at all. And the good of course can be counted on the actual finger. But there is nothing wrong if we participate in every airdrop.

it is likely that now all projects are crap because very poor performance on their investment

Of course this news is not entirely true, because some Airdrops are proven to be paying and valuable.
even though most of them only share shitcoin.

unfortunately yes it is true and the vast majority is complete nonsense that does not bring you the desired earnings

This days, 99.8% of airdrops are shitcoins. Gone are the days when airdrops where too good to join. Try it now and you will be wasting 101% of your time on them

I'm not saying that all Airdrop is fraud. But I see a lot that there is still precious Airdrop. And of course, we have to be selective in determining Airdrop. Airdrop tokens are better for long-term investments.

not all airdrop launched by ICO developers is bad ... there are some airdrop coins as you mean ... there are also some that are really good and have high prices on the market ... because I once got an airdrop coin that reached $ 100. ... and there are some other airdrops that have high prices ...

This is a stage that has already been passed; now good projects are not satisfied with AIRDROP. And to be honest, there are very few good projects now. I hope everything will change next year.

I could believe that one person could have such statistics, taking into account the fact that he participated in several projects. If that number was much higher, I stop believing.

the further we go, the more terrible it becomes. lots of scams out there. hunting for people information. My email has been attached several times due to registration on googlesheet airdrops. advise to anyone who cares to listen to avoid googlesheet Airdrops. and also make sure they have a little bit idea of Airdrops they want to join. worst case now is that Airdrops that finally hits an exchange are not trad-able due to the limit amount.

This is a fact, because the airdrop project does not need to pass more publicity channels, and the airdrop project is more targeted.

You should say "except: Vite, Ontlogy, Dfinity, all the other coins you join are shitcoin" because not all are shitcoin like you said, I have joined a few airdrops of other coins and they're pretty good.

airdrop isn't worth anymore because airdrop will kill the project, when the project launch airdrop then their project just worth for a few days after their token got listed on exchange. After that the marketing will thinking to listed their coin on small exchange for their first step , how it is used to reduce losses or extend the life of their project, 99% of airdrop is from projects that die quickly.

No. There are so many profitable coins but there are so many shit coins too. You need to separate them one by one so you can choose only the greatest project.

Yes, it's basically true,and yet here's my personal example,in October 2017 began to make Aidrops for 2 months, in the end still not one that is not worth it and it is not possible to sell!So do not waste time on them, it's a waste,they are not who you do not buy, and time will lose a lot

Most definitely yes, because they just want to have more people holding their coins that's why they give airdrops. Anyways, I don't give a damn about those airdrops because I don't join any of it and only do bounty hunting on bounty campaigns to earn tokens.

That's right, most airdrop is very useless, the price of coins is very cheap. I think airdrop is a waste of time.it's better if we just join bounty, it takes time and hard work, but when you find a legit project then you will get a lot of benefits

I agree with you. From my experience, most of airdrops are worthless and come from bad projects especially today where the market is in decline. I used to join a lot of airdrops and only 2% of them are valuable and come from legit project.

Often good projects carry out airdrop. Well, just need to look at the presence of a bounty program. If these two elements are present, then the project should be good.

Airdrop is not function the way it was originally design. Airdrop has become a tool in the hand of scammers to achieve their fraudulent activity.  We have had of identity trading and other unwholesome practises!  However,  we must stand firm to bring to pass crypto ideals!

If there are something too much, the balance would change in bad ways and many of them must be fail. In 2018 %80 ICO failed or turned scam unfortunately.. Also the bounty hunting work now arrives the stopping point. The bounty rewards became like $5-10 tofay. In 2016 you could make great ammount of asset with the bounties. I can see that not so many people will invest to ICO's 2019 because no one can trust them anymore..

I have never heard of any of the projects you listed. You can think that I am ignorant, but I am now a very cautious person, because I have summarized the experience from the failure lessons of 2018, this experience is: except Bitcoin All altcoins are likely to die and are not trustworthy.

Why do you say that?
I guess most tokens you get are not priced on the trading platform. You feel wasted time , effort and do not receive money when working. It was simple and anyone involved in Airdrop was in the same condition as you. Feel happy and keep working even though you feel unworthy.

You think this is one-sided. Although more than 90% of the airdrop tokens are shitcoins, this does not mean that airdrops are useless. One year ago, airdrops were one of the fastest ways to make money that we must all recognize.

I'm thinking. As people conducted an analysis and evaluation of projects that they have such statistics in a number of projects. Airdrop itself is a pretty good way to promote coins among the population.

Unfortunately, I have to admit now - the number of reliable airdrops, which provide stable payments, has significantly decreased. Now regularly there are various scammers who do not even plan to make payments. Therefore, I work less and less with various airdrops.

in my expirience not all airdrops is shitcoins some of the has really good potential in market and some of my airdrops ive got some good profit from it

Yes, this year is a waste of time. In 2017 and 2018, the distributions gave a very good profit. I hope this time will come back.

Well you are so lucky to have found these coins, in my case I have no luck at all of the 50 airdrops I have in my wallet not one of them are in the market and I'm still hoping that it will show up in the market, but I guess if ever it gets to the market, my share will not be big enough to pay for the rent.

Do not waste your time filling out these forms. This is currently irrelevant. Maybe someday it will make a profit but not now.

some are good and it's a great way to get a foothold in crypto if you have limited funds. Deeponion turned my life around in a big way. it's all about looking at the coin and team and making your choice.
i've just started in the Helios airdrop. the team are all known and the roadmap looks really good. it's in testnet right now but mainnet is due to launch in february with a 1.1 coinswap. take a look for yourselves.
anyone into airdrops? try this one,not your ordinary airdrop crap, https://discord.gg/qjK2BA

I would have to agree with you, and add one more coin to that list and that is: Energi (NRG). Everyone who haven't already go check it out and sign up for airdrop (earndrop) as they call it. But yeah, 99% of airdroped coins are total shitcoins, you could have make some profit of it (let's face it we got them for free), but definitely not as much as they are telling us they are worth.

We should distinguish between market performance and project value.
At first we should ask a question: what added value particular project brings  for us?
How much other projects we have in this area? If there is many of them - are "our" project much better than other existing?
It is hard to say exact number how much projects are garbage. It is hard to predict how much  of 2017/18' crypto pump will remain as improvement in real world

I never got hold of that coins, because I stopped doing these airdrops coins, and people should do the same, it's only a matter of time before these airdrops become obsolete and people will not participate in these airdrops anymore it's just a waste of time.,

I think so. Nowadays i think airdrops are shitcoins. I never saw an good airdrop at the present. Compared in the past that i got some good payouts on the airdrops that i joined.

Well this was written According to your own opinion and experience you have had so far. During those days when the market was much better, project like HAT, BTW, EQUAL, ENU, HYDRO in addition to your list of Airdtwere better. Till date HYDRO is still making wave due to their MVP that has been release. Thereafter we started seeing shitcoin in all others that follows

This is right, Airdrop is becoming obsolete and waste of time as it doesn't pays anymore. If Bounty campaign is turning into something else then the era of Airdrop is gone also.

I do not know any airdrop that would be of any value to me.In most cases, coins received from airdrop are worthless.From my friend I heard that he earned in 2017 $400,more positive information about airdrop, I alas did not hear.

As a tool for winning awards, Airdrops is no longer relevant, but still very effective for quickly building up the required audience.
