It would be cool to say over 60% of airdrop is scam but really 99%. Have gained big from airdrop and I know why most tactics behind most airdrops of course it wouldn't be profitable for a project to use gas fee to send token to applicant and later not proceed on the project. There are legit once that they distribute airdrop just to have more holders or to gain recognitions or to fast pace their project instead of 2 months to waste on ICOs. With my luck in airdrop applications I can say over 60% of airdrops are scam but not 99% base on my experience but to some like the one on the OP, it may be 99% to them.

I got your point of view and even if I not agree with it(not 99% really, there are more projects that give you reward for participation) I should say that this 1% of them can give you reward for all these 99%. Just need to choose carefully ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

If so much airdrops are scam is the proof that airdrops have an earning potential. Scammers are not interested in "things" without a real earning potential. Scam systems are only possible if they are based on working systems.
For exemple: Why have ponzi shemes so much success by scammers? Because a ponzi sheme is not scam but used by scammer.
Most of people are not able to make the difference between real systems and scams. As soon something makes zero profit or lost the say:SCAM

not all airdrops are scams probably just a few. You are in a panic at this site where you have a lot to do. https://bountylord.com/

It is true that most airdrops are a complete scam, have participated a lot over the past few months, but haven't got much rewards, only a few of them have given a few tokens which is not worth much.

Yes I have tried not getting paid. But I don't consider most airdrops as scams. Maybe it is true that they do not pay because they might have experienced loses in the company's investments. But I don't really think that airdrop are really profitable given that only small amounts of tokens are given.

Indeed, the year 2018 started badly for airdrops. Many do not pay tokens simply by deceiving people. And it is true that the last worthy airdrop, which brought good profits, was Polymath.

That's because you do not know how to find and evaluate good ICO projects.I still have a monthly income from doing bounty airdrop.

How did you arrive at the 99% number? Even if it's an airdrop, I still DYOR.
From my experience, I have 5 out of 10 airdrops that made it to market - so 50% for me.
I guess it's still part of the crypto landscape as it's unregulated.

The title of the thread was simply emphasizing that Most of the Airdrops are Scam specially nowadays! The trending now is KYC for such airdrops that started from investing then bounty and i don't know what's next!

I also join to people who say that this doesn't worth to try Airdrops. I have no bad experience but a lot of my friends had bad experience! So i wouldn't recommend it but only your choose.

You have a point there. I too think that many projects which people call scam in the end, were not designed as scam projects from the very beginning. That's why it's very important to research about the team behind, whether they were successful in the past. Of course there are exceptions, but in most cases an inexperienced team can't deliver a good one, however truly they believe in the cost-effectiveness of their enterprise and however hard they try.

Exactly, 99% of all airdrops are scams in 2018, but in 2017 there were still many airdrops are real airdrops not scams, such as REBL, blue, ACC, etc. But 2018 is the year that the airdrop died.

I follow some, and they do not deliver according to what is promised. Airdrop participants must make a deposit to get Airdrop. For me this has included scams.

It does not seem 99%, but it's mostly just a false promise. How could Airdrop be shared with participants unlimited. I think most of it already does not make sense, so there's no reason to participate.

I do not think that 99% of airdrop is a scam. there are still some valuable airdrop. But now it has a little airdrop that is worth. Most of today's airdrops are now worthless.

all in different ways, some 99% of the scam, some 99% will take it with profit, but for me the airdrop really became a disappointment, as all my airdrops did not succeed, or but if it was paid, it was an empty token.

AIRDROPS aren't trustworthy in collecting coins they have very less value and sometimes nill spending time and working for long-term is waste of time better to do bounties in that place

I have participated in most airdrops, but not all of them are scams. Have recieved about 70% tokens of the airdrops i participated in. So i guess 99% of airdrops been scams is too huge.

It's no secret that with the help of airdrops people are stuffed with telegram channels and chats.
