Why so many airdrop programs?

[rapidgoog]

Air drops are also a way of propaganda. A good airdrop will allow more people to know about coins, so there will be more investors. But now a lot of scams.

[usamamalik555]

Could be a variety of reasons.

For one, it's a good way to get your name out there. And frankly, it's a great idea, even if you're getting a bunch of worthless coins (hopefully not though!)

Also, they're getting more popular because people are posting online about them more often.

Why? Referrals!

It's mainly because there are a lot of cryptocurrency out there that are starting their own coins and they want to advertise and market it to the people.

Yes, that`s true. But unfortunately, another reason why there are so many Airdrops because some of them are scams. When people do their job and get nothing that is sad.

There are also many airdrop programs because there are also many ICOs which having a bounties in order to help bounty hunters make money and give the public a wider view about their project.

[Heruwa]

Indeed many airdrops emerge because every day there are also many projects / ico that comes with bringing new coins, and airdrop one of the media to give free coins to be known more widely. And many airdrop participants.

Some are scams, some are legit projects wanting to get some exposure and movement in the space.

As mentioned airdrop is an added way of promoting their service. Apart from the different campaigns the airdrop of the respective token leads to make people invest more. Among the entire list of airdrops very few will be successful getting a big reward for the participation while majority end up with mere dollars when calculated on the whole.

An airdrop may serve different purposes:

- Could be a way to distribute important tokens fairly, promote a project or make people hodl (and not sell) their old tokens for a period. Many big time projects like ARDOR and some waves tokens were distributed like this.

- Could be a cheap easy way to advertise a useless project. Send 100 tokens to 50K addresses, and hope some of those people will google search your project to see what's this new token they received, and some of those buy more! LoL

- Could be a way to attract people to buy more, by giving them a small amount of a good token for free.

And many other reasons. So, they are becoming popular.

Airdrop campaign is necessary because when the ico still needs additional marketing, they intend to have an airdrop. In return for the users advertising the ico they give small amount of coins or token to boost their sale.

[rapsonic1337]

Airdrop is one way of advertising there tokens to be sold in the ICO, but mostly of it does not success and so they have to abandon it and make a new project name or the token name.

Airdrop is one way of advertising there tokens to be sold in the ICO, but mostly of it does not success and so they have to abandon it and make a new project name or the token name.

The reason that majority is not getting success is due to the fact that they are just created to pocket the money from the investors and become rich by them self. They do not think for the long term or want to make it the big project for their rest of the life.

[crypto_futurer]

The more useless tokens are created, the more AirDrop companies appear, which are created in order to attract at least some attention. There is nothing useful and free of charge.

[ribolovandrey]

Yet many projects are used to promote . Good advertising of your product .

[Crypto.Expert]

Airdrop might be one of the way to advertise the tokens in public. But it will not guarantee that it will success, and so the tokens or project that they have will be abandoned and then they will make a new name to the projects.

[Zykexia]

A lots of airdrop programs that are introduces in crypto because right now, tokens is easily to produce, and well they will make this token to scam the other users.

[gabinsight]

Airdrops comes with the introduction of new projects... So many projects out there are looking to gain more popularity and increase their participants base.. Thats is the main reason these projects organises airdrop and by that means advertise their product through every participants.

[btctop1]

How many projects, so many airdrops. Holders of coins are always profitable for investors, even as an advertising action. Now, look at our community, they present the project to potential investors. So, all this will work long.

[wakier]

[phairan]

Since, as I understood, they are used to attract more and more people to your community and make them form a part of it by rewarding them for joining your community. This is quite strange since the ones who start the airdrop campaign, basically, are giving free money to people just for pressing two buttons 

[patrickj]

Airdrops are a piece of their showcasing technique and I figure this can assist the organization with being qualified in posting with the trades as this is one of the necessities to have a particular volume of part. Abundance seekers cherishes to partake in aridrops in light of the fact that its a free cash obviously despite everything you must be watchful on the grounds that a large portion of the airdrops are trick.
