Etherum seems to be showing some promise of recent.

Ethereum has been down quite a bit lately, so that promise is running out of steam in the moment, Ethereum used to be 0.028-0.032 BTC not long ago and now its price is 0.0175 which is quite down compared to 0.032BTC almost half price down, I think all the hype about ethereum trying to replace bitcoin is truly out of steam now.

The signature campaign for atlcoin are much less compared to bitcoin signature campaign.
Both are going to compete each other at the same level regarding to the price and popularity but there is less usage for altcoins always as a normal currency as compared to bitcoin.

For me it's always bitcoin campaigns as I don't use altcoins nor do I have any idea about how to trade them. Those users who have an interest in altcoins find it best to join those signature campaigns as some believe that altcoins can get more successful than BTC while those who believe more in bitcoins prefer the BTC campaigns.

I've been out of the altcoin scene for a long time. So I would not do it. What's bad is most alts seems to be scams.
So even if you get paid, you are never sure it the coin will be worth anything at all.

It is their own decision to decide whether to pay with bitcoin or alts, but most campaigns that pays in alts are those who want distribute their altcoin before release. It has both plus and minus :
Plus:
- altcoins maybe dumped significantly, so members may get more btc by selling it.
Minus:
- altcoins may have so low value, so it will be worthless for those who join the campaign.

and we need to be careful too with this campaign, Candle coin opened their own campaign and tried to put virus on their wallet Roll Eyes

and some of them are running away without payment or a late payment Sad

So right now I'll stick with Bitcoin based campaign, Thank you Tongue

Well exactly thats why I feel that the altcoins signature payout should be in bitcoin instead of altcoin .I really exactly do feel that altcoins are getting a free promotion and i don't know why participants of altcoin's signature campaign are not asking for escrow whenever a new altcoin signature campaign comes out.As a part of campaign ,a participant should ask for proof of funds.

Well, the reason someone wanted to start alt coin campaign is to promote their alt coins, so I think by making them paying in bitcoin kinda negates the reason why they started alt coin campaign in the first place Tongue

The same reason why some of bitcoin campaign decided to pay their participants to their website account instead directly to their address Wink

Although I agree on you, that somehow participant just blindly joins the campaign without any escrow at all, that is very risky (and has happened few times in the past )
I was actually a victim from one of the campaign that ran away once and since that moment I only choose a campaign that are managed by trusted member or at least an escrow Grin

I prefer signatures campaigns that pays in btc because I do not hold any altcoin. I do not see any stability in altcoins prices and it is even more volatile than bitcoin. and I believe that most of distributed coins are worthless

Agreed with you point of view!!.Just sharing an incident-I only once joined an altcoin avatar campaign but the campaign manager made us late payment but luckily that altcoin's price boomed up from 0.007 to 0.025btc an i get a nice payout for 1 week that was more than my signature payout at that time.

Well i also think that one should do some quick research about altcoin before joining its signature or other promotional campaign.

That is the positive side of joining alt coins signature campaign Wink

But, we will need to have knowledge of trading and market price to know which coin that has the potential to launch upwards and the one that will stay in the same spot Tongue

it depend to the person who want to choose type of the payment but i personally more likely signature campaign who pay me in btc and not with altcoins because altcoins prices highly fluctuate

I too agree here as most altcoins don't have much value and as far as I have seen, not many people enroll in those campaigns unless they want to try out something new. Mostly people are participating in bitcoin signature campaigns as the pay is high.

Recently i have checked that new Alt coins introduced are using signature campaign also to promote the Alt coin but the payment is very less, the pay which they give is what a newbie get more than in yobit signature campaign, and what one of the user told is the price is very fluctuation for alt coins , holding can make you King from Poor or will make you Poor from King. So bitcoin signature campaign is much better

But in future cannot say if alt coins also gives more on signature campaign.

Sometimes altcoin has the best and high rate than btc.. but the problem is you need to convert it into bitcoin or you just wait for the price increase to make more profitable..

Alts can be converted into BTC, as long as they are listed to an exchange.
Of course, there are signature campaigns for alts even before they get listed - that's risky, some may never actually get listed to any exchange.

If the payment is good and if it's an alt you hold or can convert easily into Bitcoin, why not?
Just please don't advertise obvious scams.

Where is my ring of blades...

I have seen a couple of them, those that pay in bitcoin are good. not the signature but the avatar like the SQUALL coin avatar.
but those altcoin signature campaigns that pay in their own altcoin are not good at all because most of them are new projects so you will have to install their wallet and in many cases those might even be malware instead of wallet. and on top of that there is the price problem that might go so much down by the time you want to sell them and take the BTC so it is a big loss.

like what everyone said Altcoin signature campaign maybe will be good for dev and community , but if must choose i prefer to do bitcoin signature campaign because no need to exchange altcoin in market if i get paid with altcoin

I think altcoin signatures are a good thing, from the devs side it is a great way to get some exposure in the forum.

If you are a participant it could be an interesting experience, we know altcoins can go sky high and hit rock bottom all in one day especially some of the newly released ones so sometimes you might receive a great payment when converted to bitcoin and then other times you might receive hardly anything, It adds a different angle to signature campaigns.
