I have not participated in any airdrop so far now but I think they are good option for newbies. It is one of the reason behind the popularity of this forum.
to give you a clear vision on airdrops i joined soooooooo many airdrops i received 64 tokens and am just holding i dont trade airdrops
so 1 coin named hydro was airdropped only to developers with a GitHub project 222222 hydro worth 180 $ (current price )
hurify worked on it a bit ( like bounty but airdrop hhh ) got me 1035 token worth 60 $ (current price )
then 5 token worth like 4$ to 10 $
and lot of 0 $ to 2$ airdrops
and tooo much worthless tokens that are not traded like 40% of the airdrops i done
so basing on those data airdrops are shitty and should be done as a side thing or just to pass time knowing i joined in February and rn am doing a bounty ( my first one that we will see how much it will give )
so if you are lucky you would join 2 airdrops worth + 240 $ but in order to do that you need to waste your time on +150 airdrop also the initial worth of those both
airdrop was like 40 $ so u need to hold them
and to make even a more clear idea some ppl do trade 1000$ daily and if they get 10% every trade and do that 2 time daily they would have +200 $ profit in 1 day while you just was wasting time on filling forms for months lmao
so maybe you should learn crypto and trading as priority and make airdrops as a side thing to do this way you will know at least the basis of this big mess called crypto
