What is a crypto airdrop?

A​ ​crypto airdrop​ ​is​ ​when​ ​a​ ​blockchain project distribute​s free​ ​tokens or​ ​coins to​ ​the​ crypto ​community.

To​ ​be​ ​a​ ​recipient​ ​of​ ​an​ crypto ​airdrop often​ ​the​ ​only​ ​requirement​ ​is​ ​that​ ​you​ ​have​ ​coins from the relevant blockchain stored​ ​in​ ​your​ ​wallet. Examples of this format of airdrops are Byteball, Stellar lumens and OmiseGo.

Other crypto airdrops require social media posts or you need to contact a member of the team on the forum. These projects use an airdrop as a marketing campaign.

The​ ​format​ ​of​ ​these​ crypto ​giveaways​ ​is​ ​usually​ ​like​ ​this:​ ​At​ ​a​ ​pre-announced​ ​time​ ​the​ ​project​ ​behind the​ ​event​ ​will​ ​take​ ​a​ ​”snapshot” ​of​ ​the​ ​blockchain,​ ​and​ ​anyone​ ​holding​ ​Ether or Bitcoin​ ​at​ ​that​ ​point​ ​will​ ​receive​ ​a certain number​ ​of​ ​free​ ​tokens.​ ​This can also be done on other blockchains, but Ethereum and Bitcoin are the most used for this airdrop format.

Another possible way to get free crypto is a faucet. This means you get a small amount of free crypto for a longer period of time. An example of this one is a crypto wallet that drops Bitcoin, NEO, Litecoin, Dash & more every day, click here to check this out.

It's nice to see the explanation and information you provided about Crypto Airdrop. Basically it's true, Crypto airdrop is when a blockchain project distributes free tokens or coins to the crypto community. Then the conditions are also correct in accepting Kriptonya, which is the only requirement is to have a coin from the blockchain stored in their wallet. Hopefully the information you provide is useful for others here.

I think Airdrop is a kind of giveaway that is used as a promotional tool. Airdrop participants are usually required to perform certain tasks as a condition for obtaining a number of Cryptocurrency Tokens, for example, their tasks are like social media or making videos presenting the company that organizes the Airdrop.
