#Airdrop Safety Guide
1. Only Trust Official Sources
Always verify announcements on official websites or social media (Twitter/X, Discord, Telegram).
Avoid clicking links from random DMs or unofficial accounts.
2. Never Share Your Seed Phrase or Private Key
No legit airdrop will ask for your private credentials.
Sharing these gives attackers full access to your funds.
3. Use a Separate Wallet for Airdrops
Create a new wallet just for interacting with airdrop smart contracts.
This isolates risk and protects your main assets.
4. Watch Out for Fake Airdrops
If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
Scammers may replicate real project branding to trick you.
5. Be Careful with Wallet Approvals
Always read what you're approving when connecting your wallet.
Use tools like:
Revoke.cash
Debank
Revoke unnecessary token and contract permissions regularly.
6. Don’t Pay to Claim Tokens
Airdrops are free (aside from standard gas fees).
If asked to pay to receive tokens, it’s likely a scam.
7. Verify Smart Contracts
Research the contract on Etherscan, BSCScan, etc.
Avoid interacting with contracts that:
Are newly deployed with no reputation.
Require suspicious or unnecessary permissions.
8. Use Trusted Wallet Apps
Stick to wallets like MetaMask, Trust Wallet, or Coinbase Wallet.
Avoid unknown browser extensions or mobile apps.
9. Stay Updated
Follow security updates from trusted blockchain communities.
Enable 2FA and email alerts on wallets and exchanges where available.
