Is $25 XLM worth your privacy (identify).

[cryptjh]

I'm not that afraid to do a KYC on the blockchain.com wallet, I got my $25 of Stellar  6 weeks ago, and they are now valued at $33, when I sell them I will most likely send them to another exchange and change them for bitcoins. So blockchain will not be able to follow the XLM and link them to my private bitcoins addresses. So I don't see any reason to be afraid to do a KYC their.

To me, the answer is yes! Because it depends on the platform project. We all know what blockchain dot com is! It is one of the most trusted web wallet services! Therefore, If blockchain asks the real identity without paying any money, then I will do that willingly! Because they will not sale your documents to others, they need KYC to know the customer well and to prevent the crypto market from the scammers!

Can you still get this now?  So anyone can get it but what info you need to give?

[bountylayomi]

This might be risky and many blockchain users know it but I tell you that alot don't even care about it, all they want is the reward and not so concerned about their personal information.
It could be that blockchain is wanting more usage adoption to have introduced the program like they claim, who knows.

i think worthy, identity is paid 25 USD blokchain has guaranteed trust in everyone's eyes so it is not possible that the identity you provided ,misused by blockchain

I've received my 25$ worth XML, but this wallet I will use with attention or better try to mix my transaction through shapeshift

And what if their database where they have stored such info. gets hacked. You are choosing money over identity which can lead to issues later on. Your identity could be misused and yet you would be held as the culprit.

This is really a bad situation and definitely needs to turn the minds who think it is good.

Personally, I rarely pass on KYC because now there are a lot of dishonest companies.If I already pass KYC, I must be 100% sure that they will not leak my data to the black market. I didn't participate in this airdrop, because i don't trust Blockchain wallet.

[jerry0]

Can someone explain what information you need to give to get $25 worth of XLM?  Also it is sent to your blockchain account?

[pinoy.bolanon]

Speaking about the ongoing stellar airdrop by blockchain.com which started as a fair one but now requires those interested in the airdrop to pass some KYC procedures, I ask, is it worth it? We complain of Facebook, Google etc of stealing our privacy and possible selling them for profit to other companies and praise blockchain of been decentralized yet we're willing to sell our private details to some centralized organization offering services related to the blockchain technology and we think it's safer? I get it that the bear market has affected numerous newbie that came into the market in 2017 but I ask again is just $25 worth your privacy?

I suspect this moved by them as a deliberate attempt to steal users private details (identify), first they made the airdrop looks so simple and easy thereby deceiving numerous customers into believing they would get free $25 after they have trapped their victim, they then introduce kyc to steal their identity.

i think no because we all know how blockchain.com can be truated for so many years, i like their service anyway and yet they dont disclose private data to anyone, i think no issue yet when it comes to their services.

[ralle14]

on my opinion based about blockchain.com
with biggest company like that,i am just sure,the data will be safe on their system.
because,blockchain.info or blockchain.com is my first btc wallet.
but for reality,of course give your identity for 25 bucks just a stupid thing.

Biggest company or not the information is not guaranteed to be safe just like the recent hacks someone who works with them could leak everything.

i think no issue yet when it comes to their services.

There is one past issue where a user manage to retrieve hundreds of bitcoins from blockchain wallets.

[Mawa1127]

I don't feel safe with it. It's like i am selling my identity only for 25$ . I don't want to expose myself to the crypto world. So i decided not to verify my account.

[dtb.agency]

Some people would definetely find it acceptable, but what's the point in decentralization and being anonimous.  

[basty03]

Nope.
I saw the one for months, but I have never cared to join it.
Losing personal details to surpass KYC and receive $25 in XLM, I won't do this even it can bring $100 or $1000.
It is too risky for all of my account on exchanges.
That site is a big one, reliable, but who knows someday data leaks happen.
There will be nothing happen when attackers are not able to find bugs, but someday, when they found bugs and abuse systems, serious things will occur.
Safest place might be the most risky place, sometimes.

That's true it's hard to trust even the site is realible because that's small amont  of money can still your identity much better to bevigilant i anytime and don't always trust what you see in social media because your identity is on danger. Much better to investigate before you grab anything.

It is up to the user's preferences when it comes to some freebies. But I wouldn't take the risk of sending my information for $25. This project is totally legit but we don't know what will happen to our data afterwards. No one is forcing them to undergo such verification so basically it is up to the user if he will accept all the terms included in it.

[CryptopreneurBrainboss]

I think it's worth paying our identity for $ 25 XLM does airdrop through blockchain and we know the blockchain's reputation is guaranteed even though we give our personal data I am sure 100% safe

Having you been reading the news lately? No company can guarantee the safety of the private data you give to them, either they get hacked or sell them to 3rd party companies to make massive profit. The likes of google, Facebook etc does the same thing with our private data. why do you think blockchain.com won't do the same with our data.

[Bitcoin Miners]

But the money whore will always give their identity whatever how much that amounts. I have seen so many people are giving their identity for even zero value(airdrop). But the decision will depend on themselves and we are only giving them awareness.

It is better to give away identities for big, reliable sites like Blockchain.info to earn small money.
I don't recommend to do that, but if someone need money, they should choose reliable sites to do KYCs and get money.
In addition, never do KYCs for airdrops because you don't know they will do which things with your identity, and at the end you might not receive tokens from them.

[cunicula]

I wonder how much stock they have?? This advertisement is open for like 3 months now and i am sure Africans and Nigerians would have rioped or abused this but still the campaign is going on. Anyone was able to make through the KYC??

$125 million worth of XLM, this event has been around for more than 3 months and also I've got mine a few months ago, this event will end after $125.000.000 : $25 = 5 MILLION People successfully pass KYC

[Rubick99]

Of course its really worthless to give our indentity to them. Just for $25 they have our privacy then they can sell the clients indentity to the other. The problem is, what they will do with that identity? Surely it can be copy for fake id card for example.
