Is $25 XLM worth your privacy (identify).

If you aren't a big whale and you have just entered crypto then you need these money and your privacy isn't worth a lot. So this is my point. For poor guys it is a decent amount of money

I agree with you, ordinary people will keep their savings in Bitcoin, Ethereum. This is due to the convenience and maximum liquidity.

Theme is verified organization. Sometimes we go through KYC to get $ 10 from a vague company. So this is a good drop. Pathetic I can't pass it. Unfortunately, this is the policy of my country.

Don't believe it! Those are lies. They don't pay us. I and my friends tried to follow Airdrop. But what do we get? Just nonsense. Blockchain just wants to steal all of our personal data.

Just not true even though by now it can take a couple of weeks after successful verification - this used to work within minutes and now can take weeks... but its not a scam!

[Beccaman]

Personally, I don't really like to go through kyc and show my data, so I didn't go through kyc to get free $25

[Almasani]

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 have followed Airdrop which was launched from blockchain.com, but I did not find any obstacles. If you talk about the problem of data theft through Airdrop which was launched through the blockchain. Today, many projects have been launched that have to go through KYC. I think if they want to steal our data, not necessarily through the blockchain, there are many ways they can be done.

[CryptopreneurBrainboss]

Yeah, we constantly go through this procedure for much less money. According to the extreme measure here we can be sure that our data is under reliable protection.

Come to think about it, those projects or companies who aren't interested or might not be interested in your private information won't offer you reward for providing them though KYC but when a reward is offer that means there's every possibility of them profiting from the information they'll be obtaining from participants of the KYC especially when it has to do with big companies like Blockchain.com

Has anyone received the airdrop? Haven't heard much about the airdrop after I wrote this post. Was the airdrop withdrawable?.

I agree $ 25 good money , and obviously the documents are unlikely to leak somewhere , as the wallet has long been working and is unlikely to spoil its reputation.

[RockDJ]

I don't think much can be done about our privacy anymore since Facebook and twitter has these. As long as the blockchain project is legitimate like stellar lumens, I don't really have a platform performing kyc for 25 usd worth of coins

I have not seen anyone claiming to have gotten the aidrop, maybe it is just a trick from blockchain.com to have its hand on user privacy informations.

[SistaFista]

For some peoples, their identity or privacy is not the top priority to protect, thus $25 is worth for that.
But for some peoples who have a great position in some company, or popular peoples, they won't give their identity details no matter what.
I think every peoples have different point of view about the value or their identity.

[dungp3132]

$25 for having such information is the worst of bargain. I was really surprised when i saw most people doing it. I would never perform KYC for such a low amount of money. There are sometimes situations that require to you to perform Kyc but in this airdrop i think it's not worth it at all.

It is difficult thing to discuss and come to general conclusion. For people whom live in third world nations, they sometimes should do it for their lives and their families. For people whom have higher life quality, they should not do KYCs and disclose their identities. it's better for them to do this for their future security.

[X-ray]

Although this is indeed a debate but the fact is that people are very interested in participating in this event and they are not concerned with their personal data which may also be misused

That will be back to their decision. We have no right to blame them all because they have been doing it on their own risk. But again to waste our personal identity for some dollars is not worth.
But that's the easiest way for them to get free stellar from the blockchain.

[hongus]

I think this is a more difficult question if you are participating in a bounty. I just saw a video on YouTube as people are merging data from thousands of gigabytes of projects from your photos and videos. We all know that it is not safe. In addition to personal information, there are many schemes that use fraudsters. Now every second project requires KYC, however 90% does not enter the market. Do you think your passport or ID card is online? Of course have. And that scares me the most.

[triangles]

really not worth it because there is a possibility our data can be spread if their platform is hacked, and for xlm I try to follow it, but use other people's data (my friend) and it turns out their platform at that time had an error, so the data that has been registered can be used by other users and I think it's strange, some people use this airdrop by borrowing data from people they know and getting thousands of dollars easily even though the process is a little long.

[Prolifik]

It wortgs, when you would like to buy or trade cryptocurrencies on centralized exchanges you have to pass KYC also, but for free, so why not to use this offer and turn it to your advantage?

[halpi]

people who participated in that drop - just lmao.
It is like, somebody will come up to you on the street and says "hey buddy, sell me your docs for 25$ bitcoin equivalent" and instead of kick that man off you say, "well, okay".
Pretty funny.

[Mihail.B]

who would not say, by doing so, more and more people are learning about bitcoin and starting to use it.and to pass Kyc or not, it's everyone's business. audience reach is important to me. why they need data is another matter.?

[proTECH77]

On a serious note mate, $25 XML does not worth my privacy and my privacy is my life to me. I have abandoned some pretty good money on exchanges and gambling platform's all because of KYC requirements, which where not requested before the start of these platform's. When they have your privacy, they take your data and make money it at your expenses. Never underestimate the power of the IOT which van make anybody stupid.

[shimbark123]

Definitely not. Ask yourself, are you worth $25? If not don't take it
