Airdrops are important

[Novatech8]

Honestly people are walking away from Airdrops because they make no sense anymore, it's a good way for new projects to advertise their tokens and attract more investors but they are highly disapointing this days as many of them are so low in value, making all your efforts a complete waste of time, the most annoying part is Airdrops that ask for KYC verifications, not worth it IMO

Airdrops have indeed become a characteristic in a project promotion. And indeed, in general, projects will use this airdrop program to attract investors. The absence of Airdrops will certainly be a question for investors, because this is something that is unusual. So the presence of airdrops in a project is actually important, apart from helping with promotions, these airdrops are already attached to the project.

In fact, airdrops have been an important aspect in most of the successful crypto projects as it is the initial step which takes any project to the community. People get know the project and start to read or research more on it after that. But due to the scams which took place in last few years, people lost their faith in airdrops and now we see a low participation as a result of it.

[Greatchu]

Airdrops aren't so important anymore and I don't blame the idea behind airdrop itself but new projects trying to use airdrop to create good awareness, the amount of tokens they are giving up for airdrop participants are too low, you will be lucky to make up to 20$ joining Airdrops nowadays, they makes no more sense to me, bounties are way better than Airdrops and majority don't care about Airdrops anymore

I don't think airdrop is worthy of your time because for me it was not. Most of the airdrops you will get are coming from new projects and you don't even know if they are promising or not. Let's say yeah there are still goods ones but more likely they are not that good as what you think of. In my experience, I only barely get a decent profit from airdrops and there are some cases that their tokens are hard to be get listed, it takes time thus it makes worthless. Find another way to earn cause airdrop will be just a waste of time.

I agree that airdrops are an important part of the project's advertising, it allows you to attract a large audience of users, unfortunately, there are no such high-profile airdrops as in 2018. One of the most high-profile was the distribution of EBTC, I managed to sell them almost immediately on etherdelta and get more than $ 1000 in ETH. I hope there will be more such airdrops.

Airdrops are important to new projects. Airdrops will increase the number of engagement for a particular project and even make such a project known to all sundry. If airdrops are handled well by the project manager it will really help the new project to gain a larger engagement

Airdrops, giveaways are a part of the promotion of a project. It helps a lot mainly for increasing social media followers and site registrations. Yes, it's important but if you take a look you can see, some project is still doing well without any airdrops, again some project did not listed in any exchange yet after a huge airdrop. So it important or not is dependent on the project if a project takes it in a positive way then it's important for them. When a project runs an airdrop only collect people informations, and steal money this also important for them but in a Negative way.

this is a wrong advise to follow. Airdrop are baseless and useless. what and how do you intend selling or sending a token that worth 5usd or 7usd to exchange or use a swap exchange when Ethereum gas fees are crazy at the moment. you might spend half of the money you earn in transactions. so what is the need of getting the airdrops since you spend half of the earning to exchange the token.

Exactly, airdrops are nothing less than wasting time. As you have mentioned above that people have joined airdrop and if you're lucky then you'll get a chance to earn $10 to $15 through that airdrop and half of the amount needed for the transaction's gas fees, so there is no need to put your time for the airdrops because it is not worthwhile.

Although with good planning by the team and allowing only community members that can bring quality to the project it will help. Community matters and an airdrop until recently might have been $10 as you say but I have an example in my mind where it was way more than that and I have analyzed it and found that the airdrops helped this project create a better community that helped, in turn, to create a good price and develop into something better.
This can be done if a few people find a hundred more that spend just an hour every day for the community. What every project lacks is this and with the thousands we have today we see no community and no support in most of the startups.

Well yes it is important for the project if they manage to run it correctly or effectively, most of the airdrop right now are only running an airdrop just for the sake of having an investor then suddenly will just go away and scam them.

Well, you're not wrong, but you're not correct also.
Airdrops are mainly used nowadays to fill the telegram channels with fake people, so that the project looks more interesting than it actually is.
I know alot of airdrop providers, and basically that's just it. They get people who immediately mute the group.
So is it a good marketing tool? Fuck no, it's not.
Could those funds be used better? Yeah

Your point is valid airdrops are not working as they need to do because we have some good number on bots on telegram and other social media sites they are ruining these very badly so projects need to spend their money of airdrops in better way instead of these airdrops because this is very important for their project to hilite in some better and solid way through different channles.
If they feel or have time to spend then surely they can bring some small tasks or any thing relate to this for giving their tokens because in airdrops they have no real users.

In the year 2018, I also received many airdrops and earn good money as well from those airdrops after 2018 till date many airdrops came, and more than 90% of airdrops are not listed or just totally worth not more than 1$ so they are useless. Even airdrops help to increase the social community of the project. We can't say it will again important like in early 2018.

[Sterbens]

Airdrops are pretty useless in 2020 because this form of advertising earned more negative than positive response from the past occuring so people is going to get negative thoughts about their project when they are launching their Airdrop promotion.

And social media and other useless stuffs create only spam about a project so it is not advisable when someone is serious with their project promotion, no more free tokens.

I think, you are right, bro !!
for now, airdrops are a trick that cannot be tolerated. although initially their goal was to try to promote on a broad scale. Some of these projects were good, but failed in ICO.
I finally stopped participating at Airdrop and focused on participating in the autograph campaign. although there are quite a few signature campaigns that carry out scans. but I always try to be careful in choosing and sorting out which campaigns really guarantee .

[Cling18]

Airdrop is important for most projects because it's another way for them to be advertised but it's getting useless for us who join it. There are lots of scam airdrops these days that we're just thinking of it as a waste of time. As for me, airdrops aren't worth joining anymore not unless they would pay us fairly and accordingly. Airdrops that we have these days are too different from the Airdrops that we had before because scammers are now using it to fool people.

By themselves, airdrops are good as a way to make yourself known to projects that are not yet well known. They allow you to increase the number of their followers without resorting to high costs while promoting their coin to the masses. But due to a large number of fraud, they are losing their relevance.

Goood for you cause for me I just wasted also my email address just to be flooded by some malicious emails that would just seemingly just try to phish me and bait me into their site to put my wallet in only to find out that my wallet balance is empty already because I was baited, and good thing I wasn't able to be fully baited to their site as I was already aware what's going on.

[poodle63]

Airdrops good only if the intention is fair distribution among communities but usually a shitty airdrop always demand so much for something so little which worth nearly as much as dust.
If there's no harm on following all these airdrop it's always worth to try and not to mention that airdrop shouldn't go extinct but we just need to kinda filter out all the bad airdrops out there.
If any regulation about stopping airdrop from requiring important private data then that'd be great.

maybe now the airdrop has lost the trust of many of its participants and of course that's a natural thing because many people have experienced fraud by many airdrop developers before, the impact now is that even a good airdrop is suspected of being an aidrop which is indicated as fraud and the reality is now These airdrop participants are no longer as many as before. I personally think that now airdrops are no longer a good way for developers to introduce their tokens and it is time for token developers to find the right way to restore the crypto community's trust in the token tokens they develop.

I do want to see startups creating their own icos in the future. However, i dont want them to use airdrop as a form of marketing. Aridrops sucks, honesly. It does not spread the knowledge of a project to the people. Only bounty hunters and ignorant people join the airdrop which harm the project a lot.

In my opinion, if you are serious with project, dont open airdrop. Use real ICO and real marketing methods so as to persuade customers to invest in your project
