🔘 Airdrop
What is a cryptocurrency airdrop?
◻️A cryptocurrency marketing event
A cryptocurrency airdrop is a giveaway of free crypto coins. Airdrops are often part of marketing events, in which users receive coins in exchange for promoting a new or up-and-coming cryptocurrency. The coins are sent directly to a user's cryptocurrency wallet, provided the user completes the airdrop's conditions.
Are cryptocurrency airdrops scams?
No and yes. No, in that many airdrops are legitimate promotions, and yes, in that some airdrops are pump-and-dump schemes in which the cryptocurrency's owners are attempting to inflate their coins' value before selling them. Other malicious airdrops ask users to provide their crypto wallet's private key, which gives access to the users' other cryptocurrency. So, before you engage in a crypto airdrop, make sure you do your DD.
❓Example
I'm so glad I hopped on that Dogecoin airdrop years ago. Now I just have to figure out when to sell

🔘 Mk
What does mk mean?
◻️Okay
Mk is a shortened way to say "Okay" that people typically use when they are unsure but still say want to answer in the affirmative. For example, if the girl you went on a date with once wants to introduce you to her parents, you might think it's too early, but you also don't want to appear rude, so you reply with, "mk."
You may mk in various contexts, but you'll most likely see it in messages (online and texts) and on social media, like Twitter, TikTok, and Snapchat. While most people use it to warily reply "yes" to a question or agree with someone, some people also use it in a condescending way to cast judgment. For example, one of your friends may send "mk" in a group message when another friend shares a risque outfit she is wearing to a barbecue.
❓Example
You gonna come over tonite?
mk, I guess I'll go
