Basically it is a giveaway done by tokens developers to promote their new coins. Usually you can join them simply answering to basic questions or filling a form.

You are wrong.


The concept of "Airdrop" is the most commonly misunderstood concept in the cryptocurrency world.

An airdrop is a form of cryptocurrency acquisition and it ONLY applies when a cryptocurrency is being hard forked. The forking coin grants coins of their forking currency at an amount equal to what each wallet contains of the target cryptocurrency. You don't have to "sign up", campaign, invest, do work, or register for an airdrop.

What others are explaining here are methods for getting involved in an Initial Coin Offering (ICO). If you're joining a campaign, you're getting compensation for your campainging. If you're giving the ICO an "investment" like Ethereum or Bitcoin, that's an investment. These are not airdrops.

The airdrop likes most have mentioned is a form of extra publicity for the ico or token project. Because in essence its giving away free money in form of the digital coin/token in question.

AirDrop is a kind of giveaway that is used as a promotional tool, AirDrop participants are usually required to perform certain tasks as a condition to obtain a number of Cryptocurrency Tokens, for example the task is like social media or create a video presenting the AirDrop organizer company.

Lately, number of airdrops has decreased a lot. As I see, it connected with fact there many airdrops are scum and trying to steal you private key.

Relatively speaking, this distribution of coins is free. You just need to leave the purse and fill in some data (registration form).

Ok, so instead of posting another thread I will ask my questions on this one...

1. If an actual airdrop happens, what do you need to do to ensure you would receive coins?  Specific wallet?
2. For these campaigns, ICO and such, seems like a lot of work for little benefit. Is this true or are there some examples of this being worthwhile?

[javerzky]

i am really looking forward to the comments below about what is airdrop all about.
i just want to know how it works and how to participate in the ico that has an airdrop for new member like me because all i know, it should be jr member here in bitcoin forum before you can participate in the airdrop

1. You need to be pretty active and follow the relative crypto community that does the airdrop. Es. recently we had the IGNIS airdrop and every NXT holders got a specific amount of IGNIS token, but you need to had your NXT tokens on a specific exchange (es. Bitterex was partecipating) or wallet.
2. Yes it depends on the project but for example OMG was airdropped to ETH holders and the amount was kind of substantial and required little hassle and OMG value today has increased over 1000%. So gotta keep your eyes open for the right project!
theres sites like airdropalert.com where you can get reminders of all the airdrops happening in the crypto community.
