Topic: 😎 [ANN] The Utmost Epic, Totally Tubular sMerit Giveaway ~ 170 sM Available 😎 - page 3. (Read 3407 times)

I have checked infographics listed in the OP of Merit & new rank requirements,
( paxmao's infographic, ibminer's infographic, 8Habits's infographic, JetSet11's infographic, zentdex's infographic, alia_armelle's infographic ),
but I was wondering if one could depict the current system more graphical and intuitive way.
In the following infographic, I tried to make the logic clear and simple as much as I can by using graphs, screenshots, and public domain materials.

Manna and Swift are claiming to give Basic income to all in world. They are giving there own printed crypto-currency not the actual currency . I think the value of Zimbabwean_dollar would be more than these crypto currencies.

Do you saw any legit business model from them for generating income/money that they are distributing for free?
What is the real worth of their currencies outside their ecosystem?

I hope you did not shared any of your personal information to them in greed of free Basic Income.

Future of altcoins after block ads by twitter tomorrow. Recommendations to avoid blocking!
   All of us know that tomorrow (3/27/2018) restriction of advertizing ICO and cryptocurrencies by twitter will come into force.  That's why a nost cryptocurrency exchange websites instead derive their traffic from coinmarketcap.com, which tracks market capitalization numbers, not from paid ads.
   What  the bounty hunters and other participants of a bounty campaign must be doing in this situation ? The answer is rather simple! They must be using the following rules:

    1. When make a retweets or tweets don't use a such hashtags: #blockchain, #ICO, #Money, Cryptocurrency and such others;
    2. In the own tweets don't leave obvious advertizing about ICO or cryptocurrency;
    3. Don't use a advertize of the brand, it is necessary to describe qualities of goods or feature of the idea of the project. Therefore, such phrases as a campaign, the project, excellent and others, can also be the cause of filtration from bots of Twitter;
    4. To exclude the projects from the list of bounty, which are obviously sent spam about a cryptocurruncies and other same things;
    5. Not to exceed a daily limit of operations on twitter - 2000 actions. In this list include tweets, likes, retweets and also addition of new followers, which you joined during 24 hours;
    6. To try to diversify the chronicle of posts. To dilute publications about ICO and cryptocurrency with using a neutral information from news feeds;
    7. To break the own tweets against ICO into three-four parts within a day.

    Observance of these simple conditions will allow to take part  in campaing of ICO and the corresponding altcoin successfully. To exclude a possibility of blocking of the account in Twitter and to receive the award for work which was made by Bounty Hunters. At the same time, limits from social networks will allow to reduce number of a scam. Now hunters will become more legible and they will not take project with spams and ambiguous content. This fact can hepl to eliminate campaings from Bounty with low level.

If we see the activity here, carefully,  a lot of members are involved in merit abuse at small scale as well. I was checking recently merited posts and came across one such case.

Profiles involved:

His merit summary : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=merit;u=1100353

He gave and receive merits from the profile: https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/heartseed-1100122

Both the profile are registered on August 08, 2017

Other profile that may be involved

https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/josejosejose-1501624

Both these registered on December 23, 2017

Many profiles may be involved. I am sure that if I give just one hour on this, I can point out at least 100 such more profiles.

Yes, we are  missing an important point related to merit abuse. It is good that genuine members are giving their time to find out remembers abusing the merit system and then reporting it but what about:

1) The merits which got wasted in the whole process. Is there anything being done to compensate for those merit points ? I am sure that the admin must have thought about creating a system in accordance with the number of merits required to be in circulation. Did he consider these abuses cases while panning that ?

2) Why not have some restriction related to the maximum number of merits allowed per post ?

Bitcoin cannot change the world but it can improve the world. Chnaging the world is not easy bitcoin will only improve the world or it will only helps our generation to change the world. Bitcoin is only a thing that helps our generation to improve this world.
Yes everybody believes in bitcoin to change the world.

Hey crypto-buddies,
 I decided to create checklist for scam ICO´s

100% profitability - Guaranteed yield: any funds, ICO projects and investment platforms, that promise a stable interest are likely to be scammers. These are, as a rule, projects of cloud mining, casinos and projects related to binary options, as well as those where the sale of tokens is carried out according to the principles of net marketing: existing investors attract new ones. And, of course, the pyramids, in which old customers receive payments from the contributions of new customers, until the pyramid bursts ...

Celebrities: musicians, athletes, actors who can not know anything about the blockchain and the cryptowrold, and even more to be the guarantors of the fact that this is not a scam, seems exactly the opposite.. Celebrities are used to distract investors from the essence of the project, which is most likely dummy.

Team analysis - It is suspicious that a project team can not be found in social networks or when team members are not connected with each other.

Unintelligible concept - to check the concept you need to study white paper – document, where described the idea of the project and the purpose of raising money. In 90% of cases, scammers compile several documents, and the originals can be easily found in the Internet.

Structure of project costs - If 10% of the investments are reserved for team, 10% will require development, and for marketing will go 80%, then this is a guarantee of the scam. It is also strange if there is no plan for future "monetization" of the project, also a bad signal if there is noticed a lack of investors protection.

Token description - If it has less than two-three functions and it can be replaced by any other altcoin or bitcoin, then this is another bad signal.If the token is not integrated into the project economy, then probably its purpose is simply collecting money. While choosing a coin, you must first think about its use - who and why will buy and use this coin. The second - about the problems that this coin solves. If it does not have these signs - do not invest.

Project Code - It should be uploaded on GitHub and a simple research in the Internet can check the code for plagiat. If the project does not have a link to GitHub or topics on the Bitcointalk, it's a reason to think twice.

Legal structure - should be described in details and easily understandable (at least about the persons issuing tokens)

Investor´s rights -The rights of investors and their guarantees should be described.

The issue of tokens should be within reasonable limits and controlled

I have a slightly different take on this post-April Bull run theory, in many countries, April is the time for new economic season and it usually pumps fresh money in the market. BTC and cryptos can be a good investment opportunity for many who have yet to begin trading.

What you just described is actually a form of payment mechanism too, albeit involving overseas or cross-border transfers.  


P.S. Also I have invested in BTC as a speculative investment too, although many people find that it belittles the original concept.

Any kind of or what you want to improve is usually they say is study first and focus on what you want to improve then practice it. It's just like on trading, if you want to improve try to canvas first for some sites or trading sites that has a low fee and easily to trade.
More over if you have doubt in trading try a little first then if you see your improvement start to trade bigger and bigger funds.

If government take over the control of bitcoin maybe it will be stricter than now. And also they could manipulate the price of bitcoin. Also maybe the government implement there country or Philippines that  bitcoin will be there salary someday.

Bitcoin will help the Philippines to improve there economy and also bitcoin could reduce the poverty in Philippines.

No one can predict the adequate time when bitcoin last. Bitcoin will run until the last satoshi be mined. Yes because the supply of bitcoin isn't infinite nor it is limited. The problem is the bitcoins volatility. Do you think bitcoin will loss immediately? I think no because when the supply is becoming smaller the way to get bitcoin is becoming harder.

Yes it is possible if the Jr.Member has an sendable merits. If you have been merited 1 you will have 0.5 sMerits in short if you have 2 Merits you have 1 sMerit.
Just be creative on making post because that's the way how you can get merit. Make your post useful and meaningful. Used correct terms on posting to avoid being a shit poster.

here's mind bro hope i get some merits

I like to use Disclaimer's spreadsheet. He chooses not much hyped ICOs and describes why he believes they will be successful in future. You can find it by the link. It's not advertisement, this sheet is really useful and popular among crypto enthusiasts already
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1I3SCazxzVBlo5gBwEvXPOg55HUqd3i8q688tHDa5p3A/edit#gid=1587433441

I also look at following websites, but most of them contain quite similar info:
https://icobench.com/
https://icorating.com/
https://icodrops.com/
https://www.icoalert.com/

This website contains info regarding bountys as well:
https://bountylord.com/

Hope it will help!

I was thinking about current situation. Couple days ago there were news that binance is under the pressure, and their CEO immediately told that they would open an office in Malta. And blockstream immediately told that they have an office there
As I understand, serious people from crypto-world, at thegoverment level with officials make laws for themselves. Miners, meanwhile, are sitting in Canada with their farms and somewhere else. It turns out that the entire bitcoin infrastructure is safe: devs can still code, investors still could invest, miningfarms are also under protection with a reliable guarantor. So technically now there are no critical threats for bitcoin.

   But with bitcoin we have an interesting situation. Firstly, it was just digital currency, then it became "the store of value", and now it converts into programmable platform. Honestly, nobody will pay for beer or coffee with bitcoin, people are too greedy, and buy something big is still a problem, also because of high volatility. I cannot say that it won't work, but the time hasn't become for it, nevertheless there are already things like houses and cars that you can buy for bitcoin, but this position is till too weak. We have a couple really strong positions : corruption, black market, semi-legal schemes for taxes and guys that buy everything if it is in trend. I think it is pretty cool, but still not enough for full common life integration, cause crypto-hipsters don't have enough financial volumes, and illegal world has its own structure, that could increase the volume, but not to the moon.

   And and seemed like there is no light at the end of tunnel, if bitcoin hasn't started to transform in programmable platform. Recently there was an announcement from FileBazaar
   And today the new word appeared LApps - applications on lightning. FileBazaar is the first one LApp - in couple of words, it is a platform for digital content, for which authors are paid in bitcoin via the lightning channels. And it is undeniably cool, because recently were invested 1.5m$ in lightning.And it is not a funny project like crypto-kittens. And as you understand, there are no tokens given in exchange for anyone or anything. Those, this is a really considered decision.

   Bitcoin is almost completed technically, some issues are still remaining, but there is a much strong need in marketing, promoters and sales managers. We need to adapt it for common people, we need contracts for use, paying terminals, possibility to buy everyday products. In this way bitcoin cash has higher rates and possibilities. But today it seems to be almost impossible due to unpredictable laws, and inconvenient transactions. With value storage we also have problems, because different officials and event mass media can drop the bitcoin´s exchange rate, hamsters and dummy investors start panic sell. Centralized exchanges the only place where the rate is established - are under the pressure of whales and big corporations, the real liquidity of the market under big question. Hence we have problems with bitcoin´s usability, hamsters cannot continue provide the fuel for bitcoin, and other population of  our planet is still too uneducated in cryptoworld a lot of people still think that it is a kind of pyramid or soap bubble), they cannot understand it and sometimes even hate it. And the new breath of bitcoin is a wonderful way around all these problems - the programmable platform does not let developers to go down (their investment is invaluable), at the same time, as we noted above, at the levels of closed meetings with the heads of some countries, new economic zones are opened for the further work of firms. Devs have something to work on , companies still receive their benefits,  conservative investors can invest in real propety, miners are in safe position also. It could be real the second breath of cryptocurrencies , and much stronger, binance at the state level reveals an economic zone with the size of the country. Lets see what will be on Malta in next couple of years.

   Let's not forget that bad guys can also help survive the cryptocurrencies. After all, this is a great way to "launder money", from illegal sources, which sinful high officials of all heads of state. So I would not be afraid of special sanctions, because there is someone to resist and fight. And if you say that bitcoin is not so anonymous, then there are still anonymous altcoins, and if there will be a strong need, there will be guys who will sponsor completely anonymous protocols that can be defeated only by disabling the Internet.

   All in all I think that lightning with proper marketing can give the second breath for bitcoin. What´s your opinion guys?
