I'ma complete Noob with retarded art brain that melts dealing with New technology....Even I figured out the airdrop
and showed my buddies 2 as well.
This is not FUD, but I expect the moderator to delete it soon.
This is just a sum up of how I see and how I experienced the airdrop process.
At this point, I gave up any hope for my NIX that I should have received, as I did hold the Zoin at specific date, filled out the claim form 8 times for each of my Zoin addresses, got the greed confirmation page and waited.
As stated in the claim guideline, I did not claim same address multiple times.
As there was NO WAY to check if the claim was logged, I was shocked I did not receive any NIX.
Of course, NIX team states I did not fill out the claims as none are visible in their internal database. Basically colling me a liar and accusing me of spreading FUD.

NIX ‘fair’ airdrop
Phase 1 - Claiming
NIX Airdrop was set up for owners of ZOIN, who to a specific date had ZOIN in their wallet.
The claim needed a new wallet to be downloaded (NIX) and a web form had to be filled.
Web Form components
1. NIX address (receiving address)
2. ZOIN address (the address your ZOIN coins were at the time of Airdrop snapshot
3. Automatically generated Claim ID
this was important, as you had to sign a message containing this ID in your ZOIN wallet, with the respective ZOIN address.
4. Signed message field where you put the signed message generated using Claim ID
5. Claim your NIX button.
Once you hit the Claim your NIX button, you have gotten a green highlighted message “Thank you for your submission”.
Nothing more.
Here is the first problem. There should have been at least an email address field, where all the information you submitted is mailed to you as a confirmation.
The second problem is, there was no way to see if the claim was even logged in the system. There was not publicly accessible page where one could have looked up, based on Claim ID if the claim is in the non-public database of the NIX Team.
Even if you took a screen shot of the final step and thought that you will get your NIX later, in case there are some issues, bad luck.
NIX team does not honor any claims they do not see in their database.
So even if you followed their step-by-step guide, and got the green confirmation page, there was
not way to check if it really went through
and if the information you submitted was correct.
Not even a simple basic checks like existence of the claimed ZOIN address or the valid form of the NIX address were implemented (was this intentional?)
Of course, you were not told this information, and the claim page was active for one week only.
So if you had ZOIN, but were on a cruise ship, in coma or missed the deadline because other circumstances, bad luck.
And remember, there was no way of checking if the claim even ended up in the NIX team database, or if the information you submitted was correct.
And if you asked / requested this information to be publicly available, you were told to wait ( indefinitely ).
Phase 2 - Coin distribution
So, at this point, you are sitting there and waiting. You think you did everything right, you even got your greed confirmation page and all the information like Claim ID, ZOIN and NIX address stored away.
And then you see, some addresses already were credited their NIX. Some, but not yours.
Then you see trading starts, before all addresses are credited.
Then you see ghostnodes (masternodes) are going live, with profits in 300% ROI range.
And you still have no NIX in your wallet.
You start to wonder why and look for answers.
Ask questions, but get no answers.
Or you get “Wait” for an answer.
Then, at some point, NIX team announces that all NIX coins for rightful claims have been credited.
And you wonder, why your wallet still shows 0 NIX.
Phase 3 - Aftermath
So you see 0 NIX in your wallet, and you are getting mad, because you filled the form, you submitted the information, and no NIX for you.
After some time, NIX team put’s another web page online. So called ‘Claim Support page’. Where you can submit all the information about your claim. And wait again.
Not even getting an email with the Submitted information. Again.
And if you ask around, all you get is “Wait, you will receive a mail from the NIX team”.
And your wallet still shows 0 NIX.
And remember, all the others have their ghostnodes running and making profit. Even if it’s not 300% ROI as it was, it’s still 40%.
Or they sold at the beginning and made a nice profit already.
All but you.
Phase 4 - Epilog
After much asking and digging you end up with an answer.
Your submission never made it to the NIX team database.
Or your did fill out the form not properly.
And that you did not know about it? Your problem.
And that you got the nice green confirmation page? Your problem.
Even if you even have a screen shot? Noone cares..
Or you filled in wrong information? Your problem.
Or you missed the claim week? Your problem.
So even, if you can prove you have/had the ZOIN at the claim date, and your are 100% sure you saw the green confirmation page, you are out of luck. No NIX for you.
Then you just wonder in disbelief.
You go to the nixplatform.io web page, count the team members (15) and wonder if the whole Airdrop could have been done better. With such a big team.
You wonder why not even a single person in the team came with idea putting some failsafe checks in the claim form.
Why not even a single person thought about sending a confirmation email after / if the claim was submitted successfully.
And that is all you do.
Wonder.
With 0 NIX in your wallet.
