ICO or Airdrop?

[flying_bit]

it's in ICO is where you can get an airdrop.

ico is initial coin offering where a crypto project rolled out and introduce to people. you can buy the altcoins before it goes to any exchanges. the risk is high but if you find a good project then the return of your investment is high too. It's usually during ICO there will be an airdrop where early supported able to get coins for free.

I think airdrop is easier ico. You do not need capital to get their token. You just need to register and follow their requirements. That is too easy.

ICO (Initial Coin Offering), ICO is done to gain budget/investment. For What? To have funds of the project and used to enter to exchanges.

AirDrop are usually TOKENS but other COINS do airdrop also. This is automatically free and get from filling forms, donating and verifying wallet address.

Some Coins/Tokens do Airdrop as well as ICO.

Other Thing is called Bounty, Bounty is also part of the project. Most of projects have AirDrop, Bounty and ICO these will help them to gain network and build community to help the project grow.

Hope this simple answer help you.

Good Luck to us and GOD Bless us all

Airdrop is just filling up forms and waiting for a certain time where in your token will be delivered to your wallet, and ICO is all about getting coin or token from the people connected to it by donating some ETH in exchange. Simple, my brain starts bleeding while reading some people's answer....too deep to understand..

Hello,

I will try to give a simple explanation.

Airdrop is the same as free money.
You put your address in the token website, and they give you a few coins (most times worth less than 1 USD).
Or a new token decides to give few tokens for a coin holder. For example, they give 10 TOkens for each Ether you hold... for free, to give a new token a good distribution

ICO is a initial coin offering.
A new token born, and you can invest (with USD, Ethereum or Bitcoin usually) and you will receive tokens for your investment.
I made a post about ICOs here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2985611.0;topicseen

ICO and airdrop are not related. Sometimes a new Token opens an ICO and airdrop some coins for good distribution....

Not all airdrops are basically free money, lots of them are kinda bounty program shrunk in size.
Instead of taking part in long bounties you can earn some supersmall amount of tokens for one tweet or repost and that's all.

[tbalazs]

go for bounty program and not for airdrop, they pay better and you are actually doing something for money, usually they are more likely to tudn into reality than the ones with airdrop

What are faucets?

They offer some coins for free or, actually, for watching some ads, afaik

The airdrop is a free form of donation, and the project is more popular. I think , this is also the way they advertise their coin

[Thefrolly]

Both. You can get into Airdrop for free. So it is pretty easy. Airdrop simply means giveaway so you will get some coins/tokens for absolutely free.

ICO on the other hand is kind of a sale of tokens at cheap price. If you have money then you can invest some in good ICO projects.
