Do you think it's a good idea to penalize airdrop hunters?
The answer maybe yes or may be no. As far as I can see when airdrop participants will be doing massive spam to the bunch of crypto groups. this will make people about such platform but in another side the airdrop participants will be harming the market as when they received their reward and they will be intentionally dumping their token instantly for a burger. Will this do more harm or good to the adoption of crypto/Blockchain tech?
It will not harm the adoption or the blockchain nor crypto. They are in the airdrop for fast money. They didn't never think about the tech behind it. That's what the majority of airdrop participants think about that. As long as such airdrop potentially to give you money and they will be there. The basic thing of airdrop is as long as you can make free money and why not even you have been trying lots of effort that can be wasted anytime when the airdrop worth nothing.

Do you think it's a good idea to penalize airdrop hunters? Will this do more harm or good to the adoption of crypto/Blockchain tech? Your input will be greatly appreciated. Thank you. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) On the one hand, it is their occupation so they search for airdrops and complete different taks for the whole day, so it is their work, I don't think that it is fair to penalize people for their work. On the other hand, if you don't do it professionally and you have another work, you can't participate in many airdrops using a vast of accounts, so you can't get tokens for free ![Embarrassed](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/embarrassed.gif) Even though it's a profession and using their expertise to be able to exchange rewards but these hunters are overusing their skills, of course, if this angle can further trigger the project's potential, quite a few people won't object but unfortunately, all of which only triggers the collapse and loss of balance among the participants. However, it's hard to punish these people when they're smarter, so it's only reasonable for them to expect what's commensurate with them, maybe the development team should edit more about the airdrop system, limit the number of accounts as well as create more commissions for those who have done more according to certain tiers

I believe that the one should be penalized are the ones who caught cheating and doing fraudulent from doing something in bounty or airdrops. There are some airdrop campaign that has really simple task and some are also has many tasks in such way that all of the project's social media are posted upon however some airdrop hunters are cheating that they would get other's work by copying the work and yet change the rewards addresses in order for them to get it. So, they are the ones should be penalized, and not all necessary airdrop hunters.
Copying of work is your list of concern since there's a serious issue involving on airdrop which is the multi account participants. Copying of others work is very rare and I believe you are pertaining to social media bounty campaign and not the typical airdrop which only requires to follow the project social media account and Like some of its post. Multi account cheaters is the main reason why airdrop always result to failure. They are giving huge amount of free money to a single user using multi account just dump it immediately on an exchange.

More and more airdrops certainly show that more and more coins with obscure projects are popping up. Things obtained for free are only used to make shitcoin deposits without a clear project in exchange for uncertain value. Only a fraction of the airdrop is real and it's worth it.

The vast majority of the people weren't rewarded (especially airdrop hunters), resulting in a decline of the token's price.
For this reason I decided to stop joining Airdrop. The income from the airdrop is less than the usual bounty program. Although paid most of the coin are not listed on the market. Actually, the developer's goal is to launch an Airdrop program to expand their network. Of course, this is often used by airdrop hunter. Airdrop participants are happy to take the time to share or click like on their social media with the aim of being able to get free token rewards. I don't want to say 85% Airdrop scam, If participants find something wrong with one of their social media accounts, such as an unconvincing display or their newly created social media account. Better leave it alone, because there are suspicious indications. Airdrop participants should study carefully the clarity of the airdrop first. Like the team, dev, website, smart contract and most importantly the whitepaper. Only then can you make a decision whether you want to join or not.

Airdrops are a great way to attract people into newly-fond crypto projects. They're basically "free money" for not doing anything in return. Some projects have been widely successful after an airdrop, while others have gone all the way down the drain. There's been a upsurge of airdrop hunters looking to "milk rewards" from the system, effectively dumping all of their coins/tokens on the market for profit. While most projects have been quite flexible in the eligibility for an airdrop, one project decided to take the stand by adopting measures to prevent abuse. Parachain Swap's airdrop has been quite controversial as it only rewarded a small portion of its users. The vast majority of the people weren't rewarded (especially airdrop hunters), resulting in a decline of the token's price. Do you think it's a good idea to penalize airdrop hunters? Will this do more harm or good to the adoption of crypto/Blockchain tech? Your input will be greatly appreciated. Thank you. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Most of them are scammers who just want to attract attention. And then even if you get tokens, they either cost nothing or the price is ridiculously low. There are very rarely worthwhile projects. Long ago I stopped wasting time on this. It does more harm than good.

I guess they'll attract more investors if they will only allocate a little portion of their supply for airdrop, and that is regardless of the number of airdrop participants who wants to join, besides, the supply for the airdrop is fixed, so the more the participants, the lower they'll receive individually.
You can make a system regarding that, but always make sure everyone receives an airdrop so no one would complain as a mere word even without evidence has a risk to destroy the project's reputation.

Now many new airdrop with dex exchange and giving much value for participants, last airdrop bico testnet where many member received more than 20k$. I am very surprise because why left this best airdrop and hope one day can get bigger amount reward from airdrop project. Keep trusted and believe with airdrop project because faster to earn money.
Amazing it's really a great gift for airdrops and I'm interested again to join the airdrop again it seems, fast or not in making money of course also depends on the aridrop project that we follow, participating in the airdrop does take patience and keep believing that it can be profitable There’s a lot of big airdrops before and lucky to those who work with it patiently. If you are lucky enough you can also have that lucky airdrop just follow the instructions and everything will be good. Its ok to deny participants of the airdrop, after all they have the rules to follow and if the hunter fails on that, its not fair for them to qualify.

The more evenly the rewards are distributed, the more likely there is community hype and liquidity around the project, and the more chances of the project actually being successful. Makes no sense to penalise those who helped your brand to get to where it is.

Airdrop is for participants have extra ordinary patience level and not any one can and keep stay joining an airdrop project, many people just doing few airdrop project only and less payment they will not care and never interested for joining an airdrop project again, but for participant have higher level patience will join all airdrop project depend which one lucky and have value after distributing coin on your wallet.

Makes no sense to penalise those who helped your brand to get to where it is. I also think the same, bad idea blaming and penalize airdrop hunters. Because from the start the project team decided to promote projects through the airdrop program. So they have to know the risk that the airdrop hunters will sell the coins they get as soon as possible. Therefore the project team must have careful planning, do not allocate supply with a large percentage for airdrops. After all, if we think about it carefully, what makes the price of a project fall is not because of airdrop hunters. But investors who buy these projects in large quantities, if they sell them will make the price of the coins dump. After all, airdrops are the most effective way to attract many people's interest in a new project, the most important thing is to distribute airdrops properly. Due to the fact that humans really like free money, what is needed is to limit the coins allocated for airdrops, after that set the airdrop distribution schedule, don't be too quick to share airdrops. If the project team do an airdrop program with careful calculations, there is a possibility that the promotion of the project will be successful.

They are doing the work required of them and should be rewarded accordingly. However, if a project wants to limit dumping, then perhaps they should limit the airdrops supply (1% max being handed out). For blockchains to reach critical mass, I firmly believe they should impact all our lives positively, and they can, and this is another extension of how we can get that to occur, with little to no risk/investment.

I like Retro Airdrops more to attract activity to the project. For projects this is better than an airdrop because the project can filter out multi-accounts. Such distribution of coins or tokens does not harm the project if they have distributed no more than 1% of the emissions.

The real problem is there's a lot of cheater in airdrop hunters which made the project after listing dump so hard there's like no one really supports the project and only wants free $$

I think that projects should not punish airdrop hunters because the projects themselves are responsible for this. If something went wrong as the team intended then this is team problem because the hunters aren't to blame here because their motivation should be clear for projects from the very beginning. If the team has no way to solve such a trifle then what kind of development on their part can we talk about?

To be honest i never see a project that pay hunters for not doing anything especially when it comes airdrop, because usually there's always a task, wherein basically in order to spread the name of the projects around the internet they provide task in social media which common ways ever since before. And why need to punish airdrop hunters? I don't know if it make sense, because its not their job anyways to keep the project good all the time. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) if they all dump it's their decision and that's their reward wherein no one can stop them.

Indeed most of airdrop hunters only care how to make money and most of them looks don't care about the future of the particular coins but in my view penalize the airdrop hunters cannot solved these issue because there is no guarantee the coins price will always be stable although the Devs giving low distributions to airdrop hunters and i think the keys is to the Devs themself that how far they can maintain market support or popularity of those coins

I stopped joining airdrops long time ago, and surely some would have done the same as well. It's quite good idea for a project to do the same as what you mentioned in the OP, since it is indeed vulnerable to abuse. People making an alts here and there with their fake information. I wouldn't term that "penalizing" though. I would describe it as limiting the users involved like what tsaroz mentioned "lucky draw". It is not 100% foolproof, but it surely reduces abuse. I believe some airdrop "hunters" dump the coin anyway, so what if the platform just decided to limit it. There would be lesser number of people dumping their coins, though I know that even common airdrops aren't that much of a percentage out of the total supply. Will it do any harm to crypto? No. I don't think that attention to crypto is highly focused on airdrops anyway. Many airdrops turned out to be a scam long time ago and if that hurt crypto, there wouldn't be that many of newer projects coming right out these days already. As for me, it's the project's part to limit their participants. It's necessary to control the number of abusers. It will be beneficial to the project as well as the investors. It wuuldn't harm crypto because we really need to balance everything even the rewards distribution. There are honest participants but there are even more abusers.

This will apply both good and bad sides of the projects for its doing such campaign for new projects will certainly have an edge to gather more supporters, community and possible investors of the project. Putting a penalize on airdrop users will not be the answer of price dumps once project is listed on exchange. There are better ways of filtering these kind of distribution on participants to prevent dump and to secure sustainability of the project in the future.
