Hello! I'm from the Philippines and I'm quite surprised of how many Filipinos are participants of that campaign, because to be honest, not a lot of people know about bitcoin in here. I live in Manila - which is supposed to be the most "advanced" city in my country - but even so, the number of people who know about cryptocurrency or that it even exists in this city is very low, even among teenagers and young adults. However, I guess it's not fair to assume that that's a result of multiaccounting. Just my two cents  Wink

When there is poverty people will do anything to make a living. Unfortunately some people either don't have the skills to learn how it works or lack the interest.

While they may not have heard of bitcoin - I can remember the pesobit craze last year which originated from the Philippines.
https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/pesobit/ A lot of people lost their savings.
Unfortunately people who haven't learned the pitfalls of crypto and follow bounties blindly often also fall victim to pump and dump and other scams.

Yet  -while there may be a lot of Filipinos chasing bounties - I would also like to point out that one of the top merited posters (theyoungmillionaire) on here is from the Philippines. (Probably some others too) Not only does he write good posts in English - he has also translated quite a few posts into Filipino.  Hopefully the knowledge he brings to the local board will convince some of others to get more seriously involved with crypto other than chasing bounties.


Being a bounty manager, I can confidently say that most of the bounty hunters are from Philippines/Indonesia/Ukraine/Africa. I rarely have come across participants with good English speaking skills or from other developed countries. Roughly estimating, 70% of my campaign's participants are from the Philippines.

There are a lot of people in the Philippines that speak a high level of English. A lot of call centers that service English speaking countries all over the world are based in the Philippines.

I don't know if you remember this thread I made a while back, but it pretty much sums up what the worst of the worst here do as far as creating and posting in idiotic spam threads.  Now, I have no idea whether the ones I caught were from the Philippines or not, but I would certainly argue that they're well-represented among the most egregious shitposters.  I strongly suspect that when families and/or groups of friends are all in signature campaigns, they collaborate and do shit like what you see in the thread I linked to.

It's no wonder bitcointalk has such a spam problem, and from what I've seen most of it comes from just a few countries, and the Philippines is one of them.  I've said that before, and I got branded a horrible racist because of it, but it's true.

GCOX probably have a lot of supporters from the Philippines because one of their major investor is Manny Pacquiao which is a Filipino pride.

It's probably still a fairly underground thing, but like I said news is probably quickly spreading about this forum there. Next time you see one of the spam threads that pop up titled things like how did you hear about bitcoin? or why did you join bitcoin? they're usually full of Filipinos saying things like my schoolmate/teacher/cousin/workmate/friend told me I can earn here. Once they start earning they then tell all their friends and family and things get exponentially worse as they all sign up often with multiple accounts to maximise earnings. I don't have an issue with anyone earning here and think it's great if it makes a difference to their lives but it's the people who get greedy or desperate and start shitposting with multiple accounts or copy and pasting and unfortunately there are a lot of people doing this. When you can't speak English or know next to nothing about bitcoin it just leads to a colossal degradation in the quality of discussion here and not really many decent discussions happen any more. People don't really engage in conversations, they just write a half-assed post consisting of a sentence or two of rehashed opinion and then move onto the next thread to do the same. Rinse and repeat over however many accounts you have.

Obviously not all of them are but most bounty hunters these days seem to be from the Philippines and news of this forum is probably spreading like wildfire through the streets, school playgrounds and offices there. They're the ones who who come here for their 'daily needs' and are quitting their jobs to do bounties full time (if they have one at all in the first place). I wouldn't mind if they just collected bounties but it's when they start copy and pasting and spamming everywhere when they quite clearly can't speak English very well if at all and when they're getting paid to post its recipe for disaster, especially when most of them have little to knowledge or interest in bitcoin other than they just found out you can earn good money here.

Hello, I have just found this interesting information.
When you look at this bounty spreadsheet (GCOX campaign): https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/12TJzpkePkRwyRBEIIvjr-mJnZbskkW_wfD2mZNBMm0Q/edit#gid=1544862346 - you will see that almost everyone is from Philippines.
It is not strange? It is not an example of multiaccounting?
The registration form looks like this: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScchFQPaafMx3fVTMYiNs2KuFTrx03Gtuy1RbilqfTFHcPPjA/viewform

Thank you for your explanation Wink.
