RE: AIRDROPS - do you LOVE OR HATE them? or simply don't care?

in #blockchain6 years ago

Greetings @crypto.piotr this topic has many possible points of view, I will try to apply what I haveto the moments I've seen in my career (because I'm still studying hahaha) but in industrial engineering, it's about seeing everything in several angles depending on the needs.
In this case, I would start from the point of view of who receives it, these (I include myself in some not many because I do not usually participate much in them) airdrops are sometimes opportunities to take advantage of those cryptocurrencies that are about to leave, basically if you get Many referrals you practically make some money, and more if it is free, as you said to those who do not like gifts.
From the point of view of the investors, I like you would feel something wrong, because although it is true that not all currencies have high values ​​(as in some cases they promise) to go injecting large quantities of these into the market or simply create them (to distribute in the airdrops, but not for sale), generates something like a kind of depreciation or loss of value in these and more when they tend to have inferred values, then I as an investor would feel cheated or even cheated because Although it is true that it is a marketing strategy, we should have very well established limits and not creating coins right and left (which is the case of many airdrops where they give you 1000 coins, of course if you see it from the micro is not much but to think of 1000 people (to put a minimum amount) that take advantage of this airdrop and go for many coins given ...)
From the creator because it simply looks for two things, attract traffic to your page in which potential financiers can come or simply users who want to buy some coins.

Dear @jjqf

Amazing comment. Seriously such a great read. Appreciate your time and effort.

ps.
Would you perhaps consider using "enter" from time to time? To separate blocks of texts? It would make it much easier to read.

ps. 2
I would like to ask you a question. What is your opinion on KYC required by so many airdrops?

Personally I strongly believe that each crypto/ICO that require KYC should be required by law to receive licence that would allow them to proceed with KYC. And in order to receive that licence, they would have to prove to local authorities that they follow some security standard and all collected informations are safe.

My biggest worry is the fact, that right now anyone can claim that they are "forced by regulators" to proceed with KYC and this is currently the easiest way to collect our personal data by 3rd parties. And we cannot know how well secured those datas are. We cannot even know if company is legit and isn't planning to sell those data to another 3rd party.

Have a great upcoming weekend :)
Yours, Piotr

Well @crypto.piotr, as to what you tell me about KYC if it is something that should be implemented because it would not be weird to see that some coins that perhaps did not have the value that they expected or that are not being well treated by the market ( to say it in some way) or those that are just coming out will serve as a mattress (just in case, something unexpected in its estimated value), are selling our data to the highest bidder.

Since these data may be worth much to marketing companies and for them it would only be negotiating with something that, so to speak, will be left over from the whole process they have in operation.

And it is not necessary to go so far as I remember having read the company of the great F (Facebook and all its conglomerate) they sell certain data that they do not use, maybe in order to capitalize something more and that better database than of Facebook that has millions and millions of people in it.

While the KYC takes away a bit of the joke of what the blockchain is for a good reason for more security and that at the time of being required by law it can respond in case of theft, fraud, money laundering (which for that is the AML), etc. etc.

With what if it should reach an agreement on this and even more to cultivate users who read the terms and conditions, because let's be honest who has not just given "accept, accept" and simply because it bothers us to have to read the small letters of certain things and thus avoid falling into certain legal gaps (properly caused by ourselves when not reading said clauses) ...

No more to add a great regards to you @crypto.piotr also wishing you a great weekend and good hoping that the light does not go away when publishing this comment as it was yesterday that I was about to send and puff goodbye light :"v. God bless you

Dear @jjqf

I just re-read your old comment, only to realize that I never actually replied to you and didn't thank you for taking the time and keeping in touch with me.

Keep up with a great work you do here on Steemit :) And enjoy upcoming weekend

It sounds like you're from Venezuela. Perhaps it's best to write long comments in some .txt file and save them every now and then and only copy+paste to steemit once your long comment is ready?

Yours
Piotr

Greetings @crypto.piotr, quiet that kind of things happen, if sometimes it happens to me, imagine you get many comments per publication.

As for the suggestion yes, I tend to apply something similar (only that instead of note blog use Word), and I take into consideration the time in which I know it is more likely to have light for them, for the shorter ones I just write down the main idea and that's it. And if I'm from Venezuela xD, from the same state as Professor Lanz.

Have a good weekend too and may God bless you
