Is it true that XEM has been initially distributed via Airdrop? There was no ICO, some private sale or similar?

Part of it was Airdrop. Part of it was 'given away' for a 'nominal donation' so read that as you will. But it wasn't like a typical ICO where you get more tokens the more money you put in - the initial NEM distribution was all based on Stakes and those were given to people in this forum based on unique usernames.

half true , but this was the beginning

Sorry, what's the other half of the story? Was there further distribution after that initial one via these forums?

Distribuition is still ongoing in other ways:
