Homies and ladies.
You can say a lot about airdrops. Shitcoin this, pump and dump that etcetera etcetera.
I participated in over 30 airdrops - mostly for ERC 20 tokens.
Spent some time on Telegram, Bitcointalk and Twitter to hunt them and guess what happened.
Got tokens from ALL airdrops. Some of them already converted and now I have 2.4 Ethereum only from free token distribution. Safely deposited on my new Ledger:)
Here's what you need to do.
Keep it simple and play by the rules. You are a simple person, remember? Not some hardcore jedi mind tricks trader or crypto expert. Just a person, so act like it. And this leads to number 2 and 3.
Don't spam Telegram or forums with useless questions like "when is airdrop" "I want my coin now" and so on. This will eventually get you kicked from the channel or forum and bye bye tokens.
Don't act like you know if you something if you don't. This will make admins angry (they have to manage thousands of people so they are stressed by default) and eventually you'll get banned.
Do follow airdrop rules and only that. Do nothing more and nothing less.
Do always read the pinned messages on the airdrop's Telegram channel and only do that.
Make sure you have an ERC20 wallet. Use Metamask. Easy as fuck.
Make sure your wallet has some Ethereum. Even if you only invest 50 bucks and get 0.0000X Ethereum that's fine. Most airdrops require a wallet that has been used at least once.
Do not post on Telegram channels about other coins/crypto projects. You'll get an instant ban and bye bye token.
Hold your tokens for a while. Usually what today is worth 5 bucks will worth 70 in 3 weeks time.
When you hear about an airdrop don't waste any minute. Register on the spot. Most airdrops give free tokens to first 1000, first 5k or whatever first number of people joining.
Now I get my airdrop news from this website http://airdropalert.com
