What's an Airdrop?

[ETHtotheMOON1]

it's when you enlist and receive free coins/tokens. That's just another way how the currency enters the circulation. Like with ICO it's being sold and with forks you need to hold certain base currency.

There are a lot of methods are available to do airdrop. Now a  days most projects are following the method of registering into a Google application and telegram group joining. One simple method must be opening a discussion thread and asking people to reply to that with an addy. The main objective of airdrop must be, finding early or adapters. So, to find some adapters we can use the any method. One of the effective airdrop I have seen must be clam coin distribution.

Airdrop is free coins for you from project. Sometimes this free stake cost very expensive. I remember in ~2015 was airdrop Community coin and this stake cost 1BTC

really? that was a very lucky campaign, very notable indeed!
So going back, airdrop are rewards given to those who participate in a particular campaign. these rewards are in the form stakes/tokens in the hopes that it will be successful someday.

I think that there are already a lot of people expressed their opinion about airdrop and why it is needed at all, but now it is very difficult to get a normal airdrop, so I do not often get airdrop

An airdrop is a means for a new developer or company to introduce their coin to the market. It is done through distributing little amount of coins to many people who enrolled in the airdrop program. By doing so, it gives more people idea about the project and the coin, plus it urges them to use it in transactions, which may help in increasing the value of the coin. It's basically free coin, but the amount is not that much since its purpose is introduction.

[SimplyEverything]

Simple.
You fill in forms / do steps provided on the airdrop site / post
Enter your ETH Address never use an ETH Address from an exchange if not your tokens will be lost forever, not really some exchanges will help you retrieve you those tokens but take a long time but some don't even bother so use an address from MEW / Metamask / Hardware wallet / any address you have private key access to.

Oh well  your level is already full member but not able to know whats the meaning of airdrop ? It's a free money as simple as that . A new ICO will give free money if you follow them on twitter , like on facebook and in other social media . It depends on the ICO on how they want to give a giveaways or should I say Airdrop ! .

[adjong]

airdrop is free for everyone to join. You will benefit from this because the developer has given a coin or token to each airdrop you will be sharing because you earn a coin in airdrop if you always join and you should always have your fill up

Airdrop may serve the objective , you have mentioned but airdrop may lead to huge dump of a coin after it will be hitting exchange. Otherwise it will be a good method to have a  community. But when you will be providing some guy in for free of cost then obviously it may lose its significance.

So, a airdrop must be based on some action and it should not be easily available to everyone. Many a person has done something earlier, then we can give him some free coins so that bitcoin will not get into all random people.

But now, almost all airdrop must really got failed and it is better before.  It is too effortless to get money from airdrop but there has too many supply that's why you'd get only cents when you get it now but it has a chance to be bigger if the value and demand must high.

I didn't experience airdrop now because i think it is wasting the time to save some link of the campaign 

[IceGeek]

Hmm, anyway this link will help you to explain it https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1876879.0

The link doesn't work.

Airdrop is a free coin from a dev that will give after you finish signing up a platform.

But I do believe, more people will not consider this as a  problem. They just want their coins to be distributed to many people as possible so they give some simple tasks after that they will give to them without any proper checking too. I agree this kind of distribution will lead to heavy dump when that coin will be hitting exchange but almost all the coins are having pump and dump phases. So, there will be no significant differences if you go for airdrop without proper reasons or checking to whom you are going to give your coins for free of cost.
