Airdrops not coming to my address (rookie here)

[ridertiger]

So, I signup for the airdrops, they say they send the tokens after asking for my ETH address, but I don't see anything. Is it because I give them my bittrex address? If that's the case, what you suggest?

Well what kind of airdrop?
And which Bittrex adress did you give?
A bittrex BTC adress will only work for BTC etc.

it was your problem dude why would you gave him your Bittrex address ?
it was a token Airdrop as you said and why you gave him ETH Bittrex Address ?
you should gave him Ether Address to store it,that is why you need myetherwallet(MEW) or something like that.
what can you do ?
it's nothing,all that you need to do is start a new and join other airdrop again,
it's irreversible and it lost,so you can do nothing.
Ether and Ethereum is different,ok ?
but Ether came from Ethereum,it's a sub divison.
Ether for Tokens,and Ethereum for Ethereum itself

Very helpful, thank you.

Very helpful, thank you.

So I think by now you should know that MEW is the best option to create to accept airdrop or any bounty for that matter. And those bounties initially would tell you not to give them a platform address as well. Maybe you didn't understand it completely or just joined for the sake of getting bounties. I was in the same position as yours just months ago, so its really a hard lessons to take.

I just managed to recover (hopefully) two of the airdrops by going back to my email and claiming them etc. because I had not claimed them yet
I never got any bounties though, how do I get bounties?

There are lots of airdrop running around nowadays, I think the one you've sign up is one of the airdrop that are not legit or not really an airdrop and just a scam.There are lots of them that are scam i know it because I do participate too on some airdrop and i do experience it to.
But if its one of the legit one then the only reason i think is that it is some sort of delay because your not the only one who signed their form at the same day and the same time and the system/ program takes a while to do such transactions.

 I think I have plenty of experience with airdrops and altcoins now, so thank you all. The only thing I need to put a sock on is stop running with the emotions.

Don’t worry friend I have also signed up for 10 airdrops or so. So far, I have gotten airdrop from one of them and 4 others did not If you have Telegram there is a lot that gives airdrop to participants in their channels. I made the mistake of not having set a @username. I thought it was just my display name in the channel I should submit. Because of that I missed most of them.

Maybe youre late in joining the airdrop youre not on the whitelist so you will not recieve any token or maybe you accidentally delete one character on your save ether address, why not check it using etherscan.io.

There are many airdrops are running everyday, i think the that you had been  fill up up is not legit or not really an airdrop or its a scam. be careful always when you fill those airdrop and always keep in mind that you should not give your private key. and i think another reason is you are late signing up for that airdrop,some of the airdrop are limited.

i suggest use only myetherwallet if your joining on some airdrop and bounty campaigns because my etherwallet can support those all new and old tokens and coins. you wont recieve any coins and tokens if your using an exchange wallet like bitrex,poloniex, yobit,etc. also some airdrops are required you to use their own original wallet and some of those are downloadable that you need to download it first in order to use it. lastly most airdrops has set some rules that you should need to follow in order to recieve your rewards succesfully and most of them has set a specific date to distribute their tokens and coins.

ps: just make sure you joined thier channels and groups like slack and telegram or social media accounts like facebook and twitter in order to  know and get notified on the latest update of their aidrops.

Why would give them an address come from bittrex? Knowing that those airdrop coins aren't being listed yet on exchange which means it isn't really relevant at all to give any address. Most airdrops I do know focusing on erc20 token which you can just simply give them an Etherium wallet which you can actually create on here : myetherwallet.com since this wallet is the most common for you to receive airdrop coins generally but there are still some coins using waves platform.It do really depend but most of them are on ETH based.
