Airdrop VS real success story

[bitcoinbox]

We see more and more airdrops but ...
Has any of them been a real success story yet?
I mean listed on a major exchange, with a real product/service, a major technological innovation?

[Sarastiche]

Alot of Airdrop coming up this days,more reason why we need regulators in the system,to cordinate the affairs of ICO,Airdrop and all other crytocurrency issues.

[kumiskura]

there are none of them and there will be noone,
because the real function of the airdrop is to collect the money for free.
what i mean is,they're distributing the token,coin but they kept some of it for them which is quite money.
let say you will be give it 95% from its total to people,
and 5% for the developer,
if you compare it 95% and 5%,indeed it's small.
but do your own math,how much total coin and how much it will be for the dev ?
with just all of his share,he can dump it to the ground.that is why all of them did not run well.
it's all about profit and easy money

It's too early to evaluate this.

I agree that most of the ERC20 clone airdrops (usually a one time thing) are scams.

But there are airdrops that have technical fundamentals in place and run over a long period of time (e.g. DeepOnion, ByteBall). Only time will tell how these projects develop after the distribution is completed.

This airdrop trend will go down soon. It is always after one succeed airdrop (eBTC) follows a huge amount of shit airdrops. And I hope it will be ends in near time.

[followmenot]

Not very sure but back in time I heard that new economy movement (nem) dropped lot of free coins. And even those free coins worth good right now. Now some people expect same from DeepOnion.

Airdrop does not help for the financial growth of a coin, it will pull down the value,
Butnif the amount of airdrop is just 5%, I think it couldn't make the coin down,
That depends on the roadmap of a coin and dev behind also

[wildan88]

as far as I know, there is no successful airdrop with their project. usually, do not survive for a long time period. Moreover, the end of lately many airdrops that I think just wants to make a profit because they thought trend airdrop is on the rise. but sometimes I wonder, how can airdrop coin more valuable than ico coin.

Hey guys!

Help me to understand this airdrop issue.
As I see, it's kind of a lottery?

Like if you have enough BTC for signing contract, you'll recieve some random amount of this coins through the airdrop, am I right?
And as I've seen on most newly came ICOs there is a wishlist for this airdrop thing. If you haven't put your name there you're not participating in this lottery?

Thanks in advance to all the community!

The heat will drop again at present. Because someone is involved in the rules of destruction.
Most of them are airdrop information released by individuals. There's really no real innovation.
Because a token is easy to make. Unless there are truly innovative token, there is no real value for future airdrop. Just as people cook.

Pos is having a huge success at the moment. Being the first of its kind, and being airdropped, in my opinion is having a huge success.
However, if you talk about becoming rich with airdrop, perhaps no. Still there could be some other coins.

[rayk]

I don't think there will be a success, a coin which is airdropping all of their coins? This is not just so there will be no success.

[SABRINA-ANTO]

until now I have not been able to determine whether Airdrop was aka really successful, because I just tried to join in airdrop and have not got results. hopefully the airdrop that I participated successfully.

[degraff]

Could anybody showed some really success airdrop cases?

[Robert de Crypto]

bitcoin also did it, airdrop. when the first time its come, right?

[Sebas.tian]

There are none and that will probably persist till the end. What do you expect from some coin that gives free token to 2000+ participants, surely they cannot possibly control the market

Airdrops are free coins which are distributed to those who registered to their form. It can be their strategy to get some investors or maybe those coins are trial coins. I cannot say that it will be a successful one but there is no wrong on trying. Also, the airdrop coins can be a good coin, no one knows.

Some you don't even need to sign up for.  They take snapshots of a blockchain and distribute to accounts based on certain criteria.  I think these will have more of an impact when I can actually use the coin on it's respective platform.  It's similar to getting coupons in the mail. 

Example: SALT sends 1 SALT to a bunch of random addresses and then they get 1 year free of the basic membership.

There are two ongoing and very interesting airdrops I have been taking part. DeepOnion and PoSToken.

Deeponion is more established where dev team has shown tons of development, huge community and a great concept, big exchanges are still to come as they are part of the roadmap. Currently in the week round number 15 and still 25 more weeks to go.

PosToken is in its earlier stages and in the third airdrop round and as you can see by their very automatized airdrop platform they are very commited to the project and also roadmap and whitepaper looks great.

Both projects have more engaged teams and communities than many ICOs I have been part of.

I don't think there was a success story by just joining airdrop, this was just free coins and who do you think will be successful with that? I would still prefer the coin coming from hardworking because that would give you success story.
