Today's free coin of the day is ntok X. ntok X claims to be the "World’s first ecosystem for tokenizing talents and sharing experience." In other words, if you can teach someone something and convince them to pay you for it, you can earn ntok X "ninja tokens."
ntok X recently released this airdrop, which is very easy to join. However, I have not seen the amount of coins that will be distributed or how many participants will be allowed to enter. Let's take a brief look at this project starting with the coin itself.
The Coin
Here's a description of how the tokens work, from an article that seems to be very heavily promoting the project instead of just providing information on it (so be warned), coming from Live Bitcoin News.
"The technology is pretty simple. The blockchain architecture allows for a safe and secure experience, providing a system with 100% trustworthy ratings and reviews and a built-in cryptocurrency known as ‘ninja tokens’ or NTOK. The tokens can be exchanged for tutoring services on the platform, used for incentives and bonuses or traded for other well-known cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin or Ethereum."
It's pretty straightforward how this will be used as a means of paying people for their help/information/mentorship. But does it have any potential?
Potential
I've been involved in several learning platforms in the past, and there are TONS of them. There are many problems with this overall concept outside of the inefficiencies of not being on the blockchain, so I don't think this shift will automatically make ntok an attractive platform.
The good news is that ntok X already has a testable platform and I have asked for early access to check out the platform (if I'm blown away you'll be the first to know). I'm very interested in the execution of this "ecosystem for tokenizing talents," but hesitant to say it has limitless potential. For most people, dollars are still more attractive than a "ninja token," and since there are many platforms that already pay people for giving their expertise (from YouTube to Skillshare), this could be a hard sell.
Airdrop Requirements
For the airdrop, you will need to follow the official ntox X Telegram and Twitter account, and submit your information, including your public ERC 20 compatible wallet address in their airdrop form here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSe3w6pDCRErCw6VDaY_GciDkx1dXyMYVBR6Xg1tuOm5E5HbrA/viewform.

Links
As with all projects, cryptos, and ICOs, make sure you are using the right links and not visiting spam domains created as a scam. Airdrops and bounties give free coins in exchange for trying out a new platform, signing up for a newsletter, etc.
You do not have to purchase coins to be eligible for this coin giveaway. Airdrops/bounties are separate from ICOs where you are paying money (sending cryptocurrency) in exchange for coins that will be sent to your wallet once their sale is complete. For an airdrop/bounty/signing up for a beta, you should ONLY provide your public key and not send any coins to anyone. Here are the links for this project and airdrop:

What Is Free Coin of the Day?
Free Coin of the Day (FCOTD) is a new effort I'm launching to help other amateur cryptocurrency enthusiasts like myself get involved in cryptos without having to spend thousands of dollars. Each day we'll pick one coin to cover, and I'll give you specifics on how to earn that coin for free. Please upvote this post and follow me if you're interested in joining this new effort.

This is the 17th #FCOTD post. I released a little early since tomorrow is Valentine's Day and I want to spend time with the family instead of posting all day. Past free coins that you may or may not still be able to grab include:
