What is an airdrop?
An airdrop for a cryptocurrency is a procedure of distributing tokens by awarding them to existing holders of a particular blockchain currency, such as Bitcoin or Ethereum. It can also be considered a marketing strategy, since its goal is usually to spread the word about a certain product, coin or exchange in the world of cryptocurrencies. Lately this strategy has become increasingly important due to various social networks, most notably Facebook, refusing to allow adds promoting various virtual coins. In the United States, the practice has raised questions about tax liabilities and whether they amount to income or capital gains. There are two ways creators distribute their tokens: selecting random wallets or publishing the event in airdrop lists.
There are currently 5 very interesting ICO’s that are conducting airdrops which you want to make you aware of. The airdrops are on different blockchains: NEO, Ethereum & Stellar
FlipNpik Airdrop
The FlipNpik Ecosystem and Platform are designed to offer local merchants an integrated solution that will allow them to implement communication and targeted marketing strategies, at effective and affordable prices.
In addition, the social features of the FlipNpik application and the means, put in place to encourage users of the application to play an active role in the promotion of local businesses, will ensure a faster conversion of users into active Brand Ambassadors within the Ecosystem. By further involving consumers in the Ecosystem and by converting them earlier in the cycle, as proposed in the 360° collaborative model, the Inbound Marketing approach is further optimized to allow nearby businesses to fully benefit from this collaboration.

What else can I do to earn crypto?
Many ICOs have bounties to create more exposure for their project. A bounty hunter completes jobs that have a set token reward for it. Examples of bounties are: write a blog, make a video, share on social media or translate content. These tasks require more time than collecting airdrops, however, the reward is often bigger.
