ย ย What is a Airdrop itself?
It is simply the process by which a company distributes tokens or coins (toll free most of the time) to the wallets of users who are participating in.
ย ย Why they do?
There are various reasons and in my opinion they vary according to the interests of these companies because, some people do them to reward the loyalty of their users for the use of their services in the case of an exchange or wallet, on the other hand they can also be made as a marketing strategy, without the correct marketing impulse, a currency could go completely unnoticed within the immense existing market, this is where the famous Airdrop enters the game making a stir and making the currency known among users Taking advantage of the flood of enthusiasts looking for new ways to obtain cryptocurrencies, many airdrops can be used by blockchain-based companies to generate databases of their customers valuable to the organization. In exchange for free cryptocurrency tokens, users are asked to complete online forms with valuable user information and can be used to develop specific marketing strategies.
ย ย Who do?
Usually the airdrops were carried out in the starting phase of blockchain projects, but established companies also have been carried out, so its implementation is not exclusive to new projects in early stages, we have exchanges as Binance or purses or wallets CoinEx and as Coinpayments.
ย ย How can I participate in them?
At this point it is best to be very active in social networks, today there are countless profiles dedicated to the world of cryptocurrencies and their derivatives, social networks such as Twitter, Telegram, Youtube and Facebook, provide a lot of information about cryptocurrencies and our longed airdrops. Another important point is to have access to some wallet compatible with erc20 tokens, such as Metamask, Coinomi, Trust and Myetherwallet, which is personally the best and with a very simple and fast interface.
ย ย How to identify a legitimate airdrop?
By participating in them, it is important to always be aware of the multiple scams that exist, many airdrops will ask you to transfer private keys or something ETH or BTC to receive your tokens. Flee from them!
No legitimate airdrop will ask for such data, personally I recommend you read them on all social networks having such airdrop, debate and delves into your social networks with your group of friends on the campaigns you want to sign up and use Etherscan tools like to see your transactions and all about on that currency.
