#AirdropSafetyGuide Airdrop Safety Guide: 200-Word Risk Avoidance Practical Manual

Participating in cryptocurrency airdrops requires strict adherence to safety guidelines. The following are core protective strategies:

1. Refuse financial temptations: Any 'airdrop' that requires transferring funds, recharging, or purchasing tokens is a scam. Blockchain addresses can receive airdrops without prior asset deposits. Be wary of phrases like 'Gas fees paid will be prioritized for receipt' as these are essentially attempts to defraud.

2. Minimize privacy management: Only submit necessary information such as wallet addresses (it is recommended to use a newly created independent wallet) and social media accounts. Refuse to upload photos of your ID, bank card, or private keys. If the project requires a phone number, you can use a temporary virtual number.

3. Verify project authenticity: Cross-verify through the official website domain (not a short link), technical details in the white paper, and the frequency of updates on GitHub. For example, check whether the contract address is open source (can be checked on Etherscan) to avoid participating in 'three-no' clone projects.

4. Beware of social phishing: Block any accounts on Twitter/Discord that send private messages claiming to 'manually resend airdrops.' Official activities are usually announced through a bulletin board. Always check the URL spelling before clicking links to avoid entering counterfeit websites.

5. Asset isolation strategy: Participate in airdrops using an independent wallet (such as a new address in MetaMask), keeping only necessary assets in the main wallet. After receiving the airdrop tokens, prioritize converting them to stablecoins through mainstream DEXs to avoid liquidity risks associated with long-tail projects.

Key Reminder: The essence of an airdrop is 'trading time for probability.' Prioritize projects audited by Certik and with publicly available team information, investing no more than 20 minutes at a time, and steer clear of high-risk 'get rich quick' activities.
