Title: KYC and Airdrop Token
Post by: Blank Hole on September 22, 2018, 02:11:54 PM
Recently, some airdrops require identification documents to be uploaded before airdrop tokens are distributed. Emails are sent as a reminder to complete the KYC process.  Share your thought on this issue

Some of airdrops are require identification the reason why they do that is to avoid multiple accounts but personally I think you should stay away from that ,we're not sure if it's real profitable or a scam.

I can give my personal info if I am going to attend an ICO, and even for this I think too much. I don't think I can give away my personal info for 5 dollars. In some way, you are selling your data to people for 5 dolalrs or in return of an investment.

Although I do not welcome this procedure, I still agree when it is required to undergo KYC, when you participate in a bounty, but when I need to do this for airdrop, I’m totally against it!

KYC for airdrop tokens!!

I think it may be scam because airdrop tokens are too low that sometimes if i sell that tokens, i lost my ETH or BTC. So if anybody search KYC for airdrop tokens there must be a problem i think. If it does in bounty program its correct because you can conversation in telegram about that. So be careful about KYC and your documents.

Thanks

I will not follow Airdrop, which has a condition that I must, because it is not in accordance with the reward obtained. Usually the airdrop costs under $ 10 so it's better not to do it to get it.

Say NO for Airdrop KYC. Don't you think that Airdrops only result a little amount of tokens, the value is not comparable with our secret documents. I will never do KYC process for Airdrops, moreover most of Airdrops are scams.

I usually do not join airdrops that require KYC. I am not saying that ICO teams would do something about your personal information but it is entirely up to you if you want to give it in exchange of coins or tokens.

I also avoid KYC airdrops, given the extra time & effort as well as reports of KYC documents being sold on the dark web, unsurprisingly. I'd be very careful handing over documents to scammy ICO's who will do this. However, if airdrops are using reliable third party KYC services, I'd consider participating.

I think it's absurd to ask for KYC also for airdrops..they give just pennies.....personally I will never send my data for an airdrop!

KYC for airdropped tokens is a NO for me. Although I understand the purpose of these ICO projects in requiring them, I still do not think that it is worth the effort and the risk.
Title: Re: KYC and Airdrop Token
Post by: zendicator on February 11, 2019, 05:24:10 PM
They done this for the compliance in possible regulations and to limit the hunters because some of the bounty hunters are using multiple accounts.

Of course, participation in such events for a few dollars and sending someone your confidential information to an unknown person is stupid. Now on the Internet for ten dollars you can buy hundreds of data of persons who were tested by KYC. You just need to avoid everything where they require to indicate their confidential information.
  This also applies to bounty hunters. The KYC check on bounty hunters is completely illegal, as we do not invest in ICO projects.

If you want to fill out the KYC form only to get a small amount of tokens, I think that will waste your time, what I remember is a centralized exchange does not require KYC usage on small withdrawals, then if KYC is needed for airdrop participants I will not do it  ;)
Title: Re: KYC and Airdrop Token
Post by: sr.arthur4868 on February 11, 2019, 07:00:19 PM
very troublesome. You shouldn't need to use KYC to get airdrop tokens. Airdrop tokens are free. we don't do any work. just fill in the form. for what to send our personal data. don't.
Title: Re: KYC and Airdrop Token
Post by: Danezu on February 11, 2019, 09:10:23 PM
I don't think it's worth it. I did this once (for Polymath), but I don't think I would be willing to fill out the KYC form for any other airdrop.

As a matter of fact, I think kyc processes is  a welcomed development in Cryptocurrency but what I  am not comfortable with is having to go through the process wen the Airdrops might bot even be up to $20.
It doesn't she sense to submit vital documents be of a little amount of money.
Title: Re: KYC and Airdrop Token
Post by: Tiana1 on February 12, 2019, 09:51:38 PM
In as much as I'm not really comfortable with this kyc issue especially on the case of airdrops and bounties, I feel its needed to be done sometimes and I guess its mostly on the case of multiple accounts and to restrict some countries from participating, at the same time I really don't think its worth it, the risk of exposing your personal data for just a token that might be worth little or nothing at the end of the day.

Yes, just stop to do KYC for another airdrop. It is too risky for you, mate. Many airdrops are only scams, I am afraid with your secret information that you give to the team members.

I do not think that for airdrop, as for all ICO bounty campaigns, KYC should be checked. In general, I consider it illegal for all campaigns of the ICO bounty. After all, in them we are not investors, and the task of checking KYC is to prevent the laundering of dirty money. No excuse for dealing with multiple accounts is no excuse. You can not deal with these violations by illegal methods.

It is a bad idea to do KYC process for airdrops. I am curious why people do the KYC process. As I know the rewards for airdrops are quite little amount of tokens. So, they must not do KYC for only a little amount of tokens.

It is true, our secret data must be more more valuable than the airdrop tokens with cheap prices and amount. Personally, I will never do KYC process for airdrops because of this reason.

Don't do KYC for just an airdrop, you just get worth of cents and some airdrops are scam they just want your information so keep out.
Title: Re: KYC and Airdrop Token
Post by: gurunanakji777 on February 13, 2019, 02:07:59 PM
I don't participate in such airdrops where KYC required because we don't know who is behind the airdrops and what he will do with our personal data. For bounty I can give my KYC but for airdrop I will not share in any condition. Even I don't open emails directly I always visit the crypto forum or dedicated telegram bounty group where it has been promoted to check the updates even sometime we receive many phising emails to penetrate in our system. So be alert always.

better not. You only get free tokens. maybe the link they gave was phishing. so, be more careful when giving KYC only to airdrop.
Title: Re: KYC and Airdrop Token
Post by: Duckenth on February 13, 2019, 04:32:27 PM
We must be careful if we want to do KYC in the Airdrop program. And better, we discuss it first with our friends, is Airdrop worthy of doing KYC. Because what is worried is, we are wrong to follow airdrop who do KYC and our identity will be misused for things that are not good.
Title: Re: KYC and Airdrop Token
Post by: araalfaris on February 13, 2019, 04:41:03 PM
You have to choose first, there are some airdrops that are true. they share their tokens on condition that we fill out KYC. but, here you must be careful in choosing it. better search for airdrop based on recommendations.

KYC checks at every step in ICO projects are a great folly that does a lot of damage to cryptocurrency. At the same time, ICO teams quite often use such checks in order not to pay parts of participants in the bounty campaigns of the tokens they earned. Such KYC checks are exceeding their authority and are completely illegal.

You are correct. We are better to stay away and not follow KYC for airdrops. I guess they want to take our identities only by providing airdrops. It doesn't make sense to do KYC process for airdrops.

Post by: Seerge on February 26, 2019, 11:23:30 PM
We must be careful when participating in Airdrop. Because in reality not all airdrops are safe for us to follow, especially when it comes to KYC. It's often happened that someone lost their assets because their account was hacked after they joined one of the Airdrops. We recommend that we first select, which is good airdrop, and which is bad.

I have wrote airdrop to my black list activity on crypto.  ;D
I have participated on many airdrops in 2018, and I never got good results from airdrops. Most of them just ended with unclear information. The amount of the tokens are also too little.
Title: Re: KYC and Airdrop Token
Post by: 88percent on February 26, 2019, 11:41:37 PM
KYC for airdrops seems like a trap from a platform. I think this is another way of scams. We never trust with a program that doesn't make sense. I think all people should know that there is no need for KYC on airdrops. 
Title: Re: KYC and Airdrop Token
Post by: MuTu on February 27, 2019, 05:27:48 AM
What is the approximate result of the airdrop that you follow? if it's only a few cents or dollars, it's better to skip bro. We better be careful because Kyc is the authenticity of your data, it is very risky if someone else uses it for digital fraud.
Title: Re: KYC and Airdrop Token
Post by: owmivmen on February 27, 2019, 08:29:49 AM
I am not interested in participating in airdrop if they need KYC. can they guarantee data from airdrop participants? Airdrop tokens have low value and are not useful when applying KYC.
Title: Re: KYC and Airdrop Token
Post by: Xtinah on February 27, 2019, 11:41:48 AM
I don't like the idea of kyc for airdrop tokens. Right now it's becoming too much and many of them are sCam,  while the others when the tokens are finally distributed, it amounts to little or nothing. The airdrop projects that really gave people profit were less stressful, just Google forms filling and nothing like kyc. I don't do kyc airdrops again.
Title: Re: KYC and Airdrop Token
Post by: Paglamon on February 27, 2019, 01:04:32 PM
At present , kyc token is very interesting and intelligent project has brought us more enthusiasm to always follow. I believe that this   token is with a great token of airdrop.

Post by: trauchot on February 27, 2019, 01:21:23 PM
As you know, in all airdrops there are huge people who cheating and so many companies want before this that all users go through KYC and after that every user will be checked and if everything is good then the one who passed the KYC will receive his tokens, I think this is the right decision, but for the sake of a couple of dollars it makes no sense to pass KYC.
Title: Re: KYC and Airdrop Token
Post by: backfirst77 on February 27, 2019, 06:10:55 PM
Doing kyc only to participate in the airdrop program seems to be at high risk, because the results obtained are only few. So it is better not to follow airdrop if you have to do it.

Yes, we just get a few coins and it is very cheap on market. It is absolutely too high risks and it is no need to do KYC. I also aggree to avoid airdrop program requiring KYC for all participants.

Honestly, it is annoying for bounty hunters to be expected to submit their valid documents because of airdrops that is  not even worth $2 in most cases.
I expected that hunters would only be expected to go through the kyc process when the reward is over $1000

It is not only about the anonymity in crypto but also about the risks if we do KYC. It is very risky to share identity to an ICO project that we don't really know about them. But if the project can be trusted, I think we can consider sharing.

Don't waste your time on things you didn't know your clear future.
So easy to participate in airdrops money falls like a rain. KYC is too risky either airdrops, bounties, investment and whatever. All in all it is an individual decision making to do or not do KYC procedure.

Post by: shadow.bishop on March 01, 2019, 08:23:37 PM
I recommend to do not give your identity knowledge for airdrop. You can not gain a lot in bear market via airdrop, maybe 1 usd maybe 5 usd. That's why wait bull market even for joining airdrop.

KYC for airdrops doesn't make sense, so I think we must refuse it. It is only too risky for our data, they look like to steal our data through airdrop programs. I assume there are many cases related stealing Identity, be careful.

Post by: maro101 on March 01, 2019, 10:31:56 PM
If you are asked to provide your documents to identify for participation in Airdrop, think carefully before sending your data, since in most cases these can be fraudsters. Submitting your details to get a reward of $ 5-10 is a bad idea.
Title: Re: KYC and Airdrop Token
Post by: 88percent on March 01, 2019, 10:36:34 PM
It is not easy to believe airdrop programs right now. Moreover, if the airdrops ask KYC to claim the rewards. It seems strange to me, a little number of tokens should be claimed with personal identities. I think it is strange.

I'm not submitting kyc on airdrop its not worth to submit profiles. We all know that airdrops is just a small portion of bounty and it has targeted large audience that's why it just very small. We know that our identity is very important, we should not give it to anyone in exchange of small money.

This isnt an issue in my opinion. If the project requires it, its up to the participants to comply or not. If no, then you will not receive your rewards. Simple right? But I think the process of KYC forcing to hunter should be stopped as investors only will be needed since no money was incurred from the hunters.
