What free airdrops still cost you
Free programs are paid for in time: daily check-ins, weekly quests and social posts. A few need a network fee worth a fraction of a cent. They also tend to pay less per person, because anyone can join.
The other 42 projects we track need a deposit, trading or wagering. They are in the full list of airdrop guides, and the airdrop farming guide explains what those cost.
A free airdrop never needs your recovery phrase or a payment up front. If one asks, read how to spot a fake airdrop.
