Signing is safe. But, don't ever give any privkey or email when you are trying to join that airdrop. Even better if you use a brand new address since generating one is not that hard anyway. Airdrop usually ends up selling your data somewhere else and you will get so many spam emails from that even some case there's phishing email so you need to really beware and only choose airdrop from some kind of reliable developers team.

Yup, KYC for airdrop must be avoided. Because in my opinion it doesn't make sense, if we want the free one to participate in airdrop. But we have to send data ourselves only to get something that doesn't know the exact value. It's the same as we sell our data.
This can't be generalize, it also depends on the coin or the project, there are projects that are fully compliant and they will require all recipients of their coins to comply with the KYC, such as investors, bounty hunters, and airdrop, that's something to be look as well. For those that you don't trust, never give such details of your KYC, I think some investors also join in airdrop and bounty hunting.

airdrop is safe if you don't ask Kyc or ask for your wallet address key, kyc in my opinion is very sensitive, it means not to be careless, because if you use it carelessly it can be misused, that's why avoiding airdrop KYC is needed so that we are safe. pay, this is one of the things that must be avoided too, airdrop aims to make the project accepted in the wider community, but if it is opened it is a little funny in my opinion. run it so that the airdrop that we follow is safe.

The way they usually work is they give you some string and you sign it to prove you own the address.
Could a malicious air drop make a transaction sending all your BTC to them, and then you sign it, and then they broadcast it to the network? Or is signing a message different than signing a transaction?
If you're just signing up and doing such tasks without downloading any malicious software/files/other stuffs then there's no way they can acess your BTC. In terms of your privacy issue ie. they are requiring you to input your address, then think about it twice. Nothing can hack or scam you if your informations are secured and protected well.

I have paused participating in airdrops for a while. Because I end up receiving shit coins which never get listed. Some would even make it a form of contest and ask you to purchase their tokens to earn more points
This is the reality, and about a question of airdrops are safe, well it is safe as long you never give some personal info and they are not requiring you to give money then it is safe. But in my joining experienced with airdrops i never signed anything. They required you to sign up but never sign transactions.

Personally, I always did not understand the meaning of AIRDROP - to force an artificial interest in a project ... It would be better to use bounty, where smart people will reveal interesting aspects of a project! These investments can pay off.

I think it's safe, but be careful with the airdrop scam. where you are told by Kyc, you send your data data, but they don't give the reward you should get. maybe that's all I can explain about airdrop which is very risky for scams.
That's the main reason I avoid most of the KYC related airdrops (not all though). The rewards are usually small it's not worth it to send our valuable data for merely pocket change. I also heard some bad projects also sells those data illegally.

I don't think they will spread our information online, they will sell it to businesses that need our information or worse, sell it to terrorists. So be careful with such airdrop types and stop providing your personal information when you only get a few dollars.

I have participated a lot of airdrop and for me its safe just dont fell for does forms that are asking for your private keys
it is true and it is also very easy to do without complicated things like the others, but the problem is only the value that does not contribute, so I have not been interested.

You are working on the Internet should understand that there is nothing safe here. No one knows what new scheme will come up with cheaters. Therefore, all KYC passes and other actions with drops should be carried out neatly.

I didn´t see any airdrop that tries to steal your Bitcoins. But more and more airdrops required ETH private keys to "verify" the account owner. And many people see only profits and forgot about safety rules. ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) If you see anyone asks for private keys, shut them down and report them here or on any other place, people should know it`s a scam. Airdrops are safe, as long as they don`t ask for too much info. I don`t do KYC for airdrops, I don`t give my private keys to anyone, and I can say I never had a problem with any airdrop. People should be careful with private information not just when they participate in airdrops, it works for everything you do on the internet. Keep your info safe, and your funds will be safe too.

I have now avoided Airdrop, because right now I am not getting a good profit from it, so I better avoid it and look for a Bounty campaign for now, Airdrop is safe, but not profitable for me.

airdrops are secure unless you provide your confidential information. but you should not participate in these airdrops if it asks for your confidential information. this makes it safer for you

you are right, now i also see airdrop can not give us an advantage. i think it will only waste our time, indeed some airdrop are still profitable. but it is very difficult to find a good airdrop. so i thought, your idea is very good for avoiding airdrop. indeed, it's better for us to become bounty hunters.

I think airdrop is not a consideration my own, lots of airdrops just are fake, but they still did not take me too much time to do, and did not get much from me also, my information is not that important, maybe one day, they'll sent you an email that you sign in on an airdrop few months ago, to me, that's not a big problem. Still have a chance to get more, I'll take it

I wouldn't join an airdrop that requires me to signing a message. Not all airdrop requires that thing anyway so for the most of time, airdrops are safe.

I have never met airdrop who had to sign a message or anything related to btc, most of the airdrop that I encountered only contained tasks that told me to follow some social media and also do what they told me to do, download wallet applications or do other things if there was an airdrop using btc like that might be a scam.

Not all airdrops are actually safe. Some will ask for your private key and require you send some bitcoin to claim your reward. And signing up in an airdrop with your official email can be dangerous. I prefer to enter my bitcoin address and do no sign up.
