An <b>ethereum</b> wallet will allow you to receive tokens from various new ICOs (Initial Coin Offerings), via distributions called airdrops.

<b>Airdrops</b> are a way for some projects to introduce their tokens amongst a larger community, and for the crypto community to get to know about their tokens and their developing project.

Increasingly, airdrops are being used by new coin offerings, to raise awareness for a product.
