If you have not already know, and if you have not read about crypto airdrops above -
cryptocurrency airdrop is when a blockchain company (project) is giving away their tokens (usually) or coins for free. Now you can ask a question what is a difference between a token and a coin? And why they are giving them for free? When a blockchain is built on another blockchain (that is a coin), like Ethereum, NEO or Stellar we have a token. They are giving them for free usually because they have a new project and token airdrops are great way to promote it. Crypto airdrops are great way to increase social network awareness of the blockchain project. In the most cases to earn a free coins you will need to do some social task. Usually that means to join the official Telegram group of follow the project on the Twitter. In some cases blockchain project is asking to provide them your personal information, that is know as KYC (Know Your Customer). Every coin airdrop that is asking that kind information is marked as HARD, and we especially note the in the steps of how to get an airdrop.

Crypto airdrops can be divided into 3 groups:

- Holder airdrops
- Forked airdrops
Bounty (regular) airdrops
Most common token airdrops today. In order to participate you will need to do some social tasks or register on the blockchain project website
Holder airdrops
Most of these coin airdrops and blockchain projects are built on bigger and established blockchains like Ethereum (most common), Stellar or NEO. In order to participate in these kind of airdrops you will need to hold that cryptocurrency and you will be dropped with the new one.
Forked airdrops
When one blockchain is divided for some reason, and from that point of time we have two separate chains, we are talking about forks. In order to participate in these cryptocurrency airdrops you will need to hold cryptos from original chain and you will be dropped with the new cryptocurrency.
