Since the inception of cryptocurrency in the World, we have been exposed to different avenues of making money within the cryto-world. Cryptocurrency popularity started with Bitcoin,with the founder as Nakamoto Satoshi who exposes the world to another means/form of money.
Many people have made bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies as their main stream of income by;
(1) investing in project and getting returns as profit(pre-ico,ico).
(2) keeping it and leaving it for a very long time to increase in stake(in form of fixed deposit).
(3) mining the crytocurrencies through hardware machine and cloud minning(requires professionalism and funding.
(4) short term trade by exchanging one crypto to another.
Of many oppurtunity that the cryto-world has given us,There are also some freebies attached to it like Faucet claiming,Ads viewing,survey etc but there is another interesting one which hasn't really gain popularity compared to to others. This freebie am talking about is called AIRDROP .
Airdrop is known as a free coin/Token in which developer/founder distribute to communities for free or for performing small task. This is done to ensure early distribution of the coin and Many coins nowadays that have made it to coinmarketcap.com have actually done their airdrop in the past by giving their loyalist/community member some shares of the coin.
Airdrop are mostly done before pre-ico, ico/token sale and some are done during ico or without ico.
Using Bitcoin as an example ,when bitcoin was at its early stage, when it wasn't upto a dollar some people received it's airdrop which is as small as 20 coin of token in 2008, after bitcoin breakthrough imagine you kept the coin till 2017 which one bitcoin is worth $5000+ upward. Now do the calculation( you have just made yourself $100,000) is it not cool?.
However Airdrop requires you to perform some task by filling some google docs form or inform of a bounty by reffering people to the program. Some even requires you to send few amount of ether(Etherium) to them to give you bonus after purchasing the token, others require you to have an already set minimum balance in your ether wallet or carryout some transaction on that wallet.Before filling an airdrop form, here are some requirement /tools you need;
- Bitcointalk username
- Bitcointalk profile link
- Bitcointalk user id
- Twitter profile link
- Twitter username
- Telegram username
- Email id
- Username
- Discord
Etc...

Security Tips
As we have developers with brilliant intensions, we also have some with intention of stealing peoples money. Here are few tips to stay safe when participating on any airdop:
Never release your wallet private key
Do not register for any Airdrop asking for your password on the google doc form(if at all you will participate,use a different password entirely from the main one you use for your wallet).
Be careful of some Airdrop that requires you to make payment of ether before participating(apply at your own discretion).
