[sunil_ad]

Friends, do you think I can give my offline MEW address for Airdrops?
They are asking for a MEW address.

What do you mean with "offline" MEW address?

You can give your ETH address to anyone, which looks like this: 0x708e0f39e... and which is probably what you are talking about.

[cmarquez]

Are you talking MEW - "MyEtherWallet?

Yes you can send them as long it is not the private key.

I ran the downloaded Myetherwallet(MEW) from github on a pc not connected to internet. There I generated my ethereum address.

My confusion is because of this "offline" business.

It doesn't matter if you are running it offline or not. The address will always be the same.

So, yes. You can share it with anyone.

Thank you

Yes you can, MEW offline will be used to sign your transactions offline, and you can receive every token on it

Check https://etherscan.io/, both online and offline wallets are the same and there shouldnt be a problem giving that for airdrops.
Just dont give your private key either of an offline wallet or online wallet to anyone!!

You also mean ERC-20 Token wallet?



Just give them that address given to you. It is stated in "Your Address" when you view your wallet info in MEW.
Don't confuse yourself with Private Key and the MEW address. You're gonna need that private key to access your wallet. Do not ever give your private key to any airdrop or bounties asking for it. It is gonna be a noob trap.

PS:  Just generated new MEW for the purpose of instruction. I left my real wallet at home. 

Lock the thread now, OP.

I refrained from responding, because I read through the thread and noticed that you had already gotten a satisfactory response. You thanked those that had given their answers, and seemingly you have come to a solution/resolution. Although, I noticed that you hadn't locked the thread so I was worried that exactly this would happen; there are multiple people repeating the answers, giving their input when you do not need it. I placed your thread on my watchlist, because I had a feeling it might benefit everyone to encourage you to lock the thread.

Please lock the thread if you feel the discussion can be closed, if you are unaware how to lock the thread it is in the bottom-left side of the thread. If you have more questions, let's hear them.

Any wallet as far as I know, its safe to give th
e address but for some wallet that has code/s to access dont ever think about it.
