AIRDROPS should be banned or at least minimized!!

Many legit investors create VALUE by putting in thier money
in a cryptocurrency. And then people who earned free coins/tokens
come in and ruin it by dumping in the sight of quick profit.

Do you agree?

That's true that some people ruined it by dumping but you should consider the benefit of Airdrop. Airdrop is an easy way to spread a crypto among the crowd.

just let it be. it's good advertising for crypto space as a whole. i just hope that they really do give the tokens for free. i have participated in at least 7 but have got no tokens so far. earliest i can get is a month from now. so we'll see if they really give those for free

I agree on your atatement that sometimes they ruin it by dumping. However I dont agree that airdrops should be banned. It is an easyw ay of having coins and also easy way in participating in crowdsales. If you remove airdrop, less people would be interested in ICOs especially so those who have to capacity to buy coins.

[warning_btc]

Its not easy in last week, i seen yesterday big big airdrop campaigns with KYC registration LOL

I think not the AIRDROPS should be banned instead control those people who wants only quick profit. AIRDROP helps the cryptocurrency to be spread out in every country. AIRDROPS don't have the problem. The people does.

If the airdrops will be banned, it is hard for the project to spread out since airdrops help to boost a certain project. Yet, the people are just making it as their quick profit, we don't deny that they also did their task to get airdrops. Afterall, airdrop is not anymore free but the people are sharing the word of the company just to receive airdrops. Airdrops must not be eliminated. It is needed by the project to become successful!

I partly agree. However, if one project will include the buyers of the tokens in the airdrop then I think there would never be a problem. We all know that airdrop is now being used as a marketing strategy to generate awareness for the program as well as to build a sizable community which can be critical especially after the ICO phase of the project. As in anything in life, there will always be advantages and disadvantages and it is all up to the project's team to manage and balance all the issues and concerns. As for me, I would not be complaining to be receiving some airdrops from time to time.

investor should know, invest in crypto is not a short term investment.
after ICO, usually the price will go down. and come back to increase as time pass by with the development from ICO's company

[unsquidly]

If the people getting money form it then what is the reason to minimized or stop??

[The Sceptical Chymist]

I feel  that the AIRDROPS should not be ban instead contrail  those people who wants only quick profit. AIRDROP helps the cryptocurrency to gain popularity in every country. AIRDROPS don't have the problem. The people doe who apply for it should change their attitude towards it.

Oh boy, I caught you two alt accounts.  Gonna apply the red tag now and hopefully a DT member will as well.  This is the shit the merit system is supposed to fix, but this moron hasn't caught on yet.

Uh, no you're not.  You're a typical shitposter, dude.

The real value of a crypto comes ONLY from its adoption and use, and its development potential as a crypto fine-tech.

Speculator investors pushing prices up, and/or hype from media/airdrops/bounties/ and other promotion are only secondary in the longer term IMO.

I'm going all out on LTC/XLM/EOS/NEO/OMG/Waves/AST/ETH now, after having collected profits from my other altcoins.

I know what you feel but that's how the cycle of projects, ICO and token distributions are happening. It's like a gamble and those who have earned airdrops, rewards/bounties are earning through their simply tasks. You can't ban airdrops easily as there's no international rule that's disallowing them to held their ICO's, minimizing them can be a good idea but how would you minimize them? Day by day there are even more than 30 ICO's that are coming out from nowhere.

This thread belongs to the altcoin discussion.

Yes,, it is a way to spread crypto. But the problem is that people who enter the crypto world no longer think
of putting in money to add value. But rather to get FREE profit. That is going to be a problem in the long run.

[lananh1997]

why banned airdrop? You may not join the airdrop program. But other people need to join the airdrop program too. It is also related to electronic money. You are hard to understand.   

[Dexion]

I do not agree with your opinion, airdrop aims to attract the attention of investors. with free altcoins sharing. and even the value is also small.

So in my opinion, what they do can not affect the price of altcoin in the market. this is not comparable to that of greedy investors.

As long as it is a legit coins, even if some people you get their coins from airdrops dumps it all, it will still recover after several days if the coin is really good.

[Kakmakr]

A Airdrop is a good thing, if it was funded by the developer of the coin and not funded by some pre-mine. The pre-mine is just an excuse to give free money to the developer and his/her buddies. I am also not a big fan of the free coins that are awarded to people when there is a fork. <like BCash / Bitcoin Gold>, because I am a strong believer that people have to work for their money.

Take Ehtereum for example : There was a pre-mine and most of those coins went to the developers and the founders.  

[linkybit]

Airdrops are good for quick advertisement and I don't think so there will be any ban on airdrops. Also, there are good coins which are 90% airdrop coins.

[SUP_866]

Airdrops are great for new coins starting out. Free advertisement, gets there name out there and creates a spread in the community. Maybe even helping reduce pump and dump.
