I agree with you that KYC is not necessary for the participants of the crypto currency, and anonymity will disappear because of this.

Well, I may understand KYC for bounties, but when we speak about airdrops - that's just ridiculous...

I do not advise to pass KYC especially for airdrops, the profit is almost zero, it's only if you are sure that the campaign is reliable and you will earn a normal amount of money, which is rare in airdrops.

I don't join any airdrop that requires KYC.. it's absurd..  even in bounty I think it's wrong to ask KYC but really for just few bucks from airdrop is crazy to ask KYC!

I would not fill out KYC for airdrops, this is a very dubious action and maybe specially calculated in order to collect information about the participants.

I personaly against this kind of procedure even in bounty campaign they need KYC for what reason?
It is not worth to give them your information just for an airdrop. Also they might be potential scammers and just want to sell or use your informations.

The airdrops with the KYC are just ridiculous. I would never have participated in such airdrops.  Most airdrops are fraud and not worth it give them your ID.

It is necessary to be crazy, that would pass KYC for airdrops. This is the same thing that sell your passport for a couple of dollars. Participation in airdrops is meaningless.

I don't like airdrop. in my opinion, this is a waste of time. But if they also ask KYC is too brazen.

Seasoned users strongly are convinced of that KYC ain´t a reasonable system for most of the coins. These do not possess the righs of bonds and should not require of that system.

It is understandable to some extent when bounty participants are requested to fulfil kyc requirement but not with airdrop. Nowadays that most airdrops are just a waste of effort and nothing reasonable comes out of it. Kyc should not be required at all.

The main feature of cryptocurrency is its anonymity. So the question is, why do we really need kyc just to receive airdrops, bounty ?
I totally agree with you, I really do not like the idea of giving my details just to get a few cents, how do I get assurance that my details will be safe and will not be used for fraud.

Sometimes KYC require really good projects, at least they seem to be at first glance, but the problem is that we can not know for sure who we are sending our personal data, so do not pass KYC, especially for the sake of airdrop companies.

for a small thing you bet your whole life
for a small bonus you permit a thief to enter your house
for silly things you are too tame to lie.

do not you do KYC on airdrop, airdrop is just an illusion that is in front of you.
Forget it!

i dont think its proper for me to submit my details before i can get a token, anonymity is a reason why some people are into crypto. i  means most times this information can be sold on dark webs.

I have recently seen where bounty hunters were asked to present identifying documents.  Am really against kyc because one of the reasons I joined crypto was the anonymity which it provides. But sadly that's gently creeping away.

Now this KYC has come into airdrops. Imagine am to submit my ID to some I don't know which planet he or she or they are from for some pennies worth tokens. 

It's terrible and this is a bad precedence these people are setting.

If as a community we do not say no to this,  then it would become the norm.

So why you will pass KYC to get an airdrop coins which you will sell for a couple of dollars? I think it's not worth the time, given that your documents can get into other hands. Every day there are many new airdrops that do not require KYC, why choose those where it is needed?
