KYC for Airdrops: A bad precedence

[Yield7]

air drops are waste of Time!
blockchain was introduced as Anonoumity but it Will Not Stay like this.

This is very true, most people want to kyc on airdrop  just to get a little money
they sell their self-esteem worth $ 5-10

you are wrong, they give their personal data because of the agreement and the conditions they have agreed on themselves. I thought there was no problem with the reward they got. if you want to get a bigger reward, maybe you can do something else like a bounty, but with a different job. I have become normal now, it doesn't need to be discussed. it is only for data collection and reducing fraud problems.

You are very much correct in this, by supporting KYC in almost every aspect of Cryptocurrencies, we are actually deviating from the aim and fundamentals of blockchain technology, it's time to wake up.

I am sending KYC only for airdrops that I can trust. I sent KYC for Dfinity and I don't worry about it. When some project promise me 5-10$ for KYC I will not do it of course.

[crzybilly]

I would not risk my own documents to take part in another airdrop to get several cents. Never provide your documents for an airdrop guys, it does not make sense and it is very unsafe. Nobody knows what the project would do with your docs.

In my opinion, the fact is that you cannot always precisely determine how legitimate the project is, which means that by going through the KYC procedure you put your personal data at risk.
There are many ways to weed out bots and multi-accounts without resorting to the KYC.

How much money do you plan to make with airdrop? The airdrop already allows you to earn only a few dollars or a few cents at the moment. Do not give your information to others, so I think it is quite unnecessary to do kyc

That's true!

but Document vefification process is becouse the ico creators Will create like new Form of money.
tokens are like new Form of money.

but any Document verification in crypto is Not Fair.
crypto is privacy Thing but guess what?
You are Not ment to be free!!
You have no rights to operate how You Want.
More and More Rules and regulations Come in to crypto play -ground, but who need them?

I am not a airdrop Hunter so this is the first I have heard some manager asking Kyc details for airdrop ,from last year, for bounty Kyc is generally necessary in many project which is also wrong as it is service we are providing to them,but I don't think Kyc for airdrop will be required as it's them who are offering coin to others.

[Sundaey]

As far is a way of identifying one's customers I see no reason to call kyc bad but I think it should be for those who purchase the product since they are customers not those working for them there's is a clear difference between both of them and if there should be any kyc for airdrop participants I think it should be introduced before the project not after.

[makerst]

This is ridiculous and I don’t understand why I should go through KYC in order to receive airdrops it’s terrible, because today it’s really a big threat that can come as a whole from the fact that today people distribute their documents.

[Olayinka225]

I don't support kyc for ICO purchase or generally crypto talkless of airdrop. I think airdrop is meant for people to benefit a penny of what the project has for the mass without buying or lobbying, so why need for kyc again for airdrop, that I don't support why: because nobody ever know where this our kyc document are been stored and been used for after collecting. Because we're in the internet age, one just need to be very careful with identity.

[mr.robot8]

i fully agree not even i like to do kyc for bounty of the icos, much less for the airdrop that then the documents end up in the hands of unknown people, the bounty hunters should make a common front and refuse regardless of all situations where kyc is required

[triangles]

the problem of kyc indeed makes cryptocurrency more complicated, but sometimes kyc is needed for exchange purposes, but for projects that are not related to exchangers in my opinion it is a little strange and sometimes some of them can be manipulated by some people using data circulating on the internet, I prefer to use kyc only for projects that are indeed exchange themes

[Cryptrx]

It's totally not worth it and most airdrops are scam being purported behind airdrops. I wouldn't trust any airdrop with my private detail especially not when 99% are worthless.

[Yield7]

IF there is no More new ico.. s
People refuse to Taking part in ico-s and air drops.
coz of Document issues.. then ethereum Will crash Down.

[laredo7mm]

This is too much if airdrop requires that the cyc and the value it gets are also not that big and comparable to what airdrop participants get. this must indeed be stopped

[burky156]

I really don't understand the KYC procedure for bounty hunters and i will not understand ever. I think this must be for big buyers or traders. There would be only one answer that someone needs our names, addresses, phone numbers and documents, i don't know what will they do with that but it is not something pleasent for me.. Could be something dangerous..

It would be logical to ask the employer for the documents, where he gets the money from, who works for him. In any case, investors are being tested, but this should not apply to participants in the Bounty campaign.

[Bugatti73]

From  three-year experience of participation in Airdrop, I can say that good, honest projects will not accept the KYC procedure for a simple Airdrop.
