I'm sorry, maybe I don't read enough about crypto--what is an airdrop coin?

It actually means that once the coin is dropped on Bitcointalk, money is being generated out of air.

Not trying to be dense:  Is that what it really means?  I will say that I see a lot of coins for which that's exactly the case.

Check out Auroracoin for instance - a classic example of Airdrop.

Auroracoin is a classic example of why an airdrop won't work.  Grin
There have been plans of air dropping even small amounts of bitcoins (in Dominica) to increase bitcoin adoption.
