Airdrops should be completely avoided by every newbie. The smell of free money is too difficult to ignore but it is a key emotion to control in order to be a successful bitcoin investor in future.

Some airdrop sites are made to scam people by asking their private keys and it is surprising to see how many people actually fall for this simple yet full-proof scam, not knowing that giving the private keys means handing over their coins right away.

Therefore any newbie who reads this, should put this in their heads, airdrop = immediate ignore and avoid. Anyone bugging you to participate in some airdrop, ignore them - remember that friends only exist in the real world, here everyone is trying to eat away your money for their own gain.
