Topic: [BOUNTY] 10,000 VRSC over the next 2 weeks - New Verus Coin bounty program (Read 295 times)

Hi All!
We have been blown away by how civil, helpful, and proactive the Verus community has been, both on Bitcointalk and Discord. To all Verus community members, thank you for your contributions to this culture. As we look forward and dive into the next stages of development, we need community engagement to realize the vision from the Verus vision paper (http://veruscoin.io). Right now, it’s important that we get the word out, so we can attract a larger, vibrant and contributing community. If we could have our way, we would want everyone in the world to have a chance to read the Verus Vision paper. We know that isn’t possible, but as we extend ourselves as a community, we hope to do so not just by posting all over, but with the informative discussion and quality debates that we see on the Verus Discord every day.

We want to recognize, and strive to reward those who contribute toward these goals, and even further reward those who start meaningful discussions that help us instill and improve our vision collectively. To these ends, we have allotted a near term bounty budget of up to 10,000 fully mature VRSC to be given out for all kinds of help over the next 2 weeks.

All of these bounty programs will be administered by the following Discord community members only. If anyone else makes an offer, it is in no way affiliated with this announcement or the Verus Coin project:

We are offering new bounties, in the form of fully mature Verus from between 5 to 100 Verus each. If you are a US Citizen and you earn a total of more than 100 Verus in this or this plus any other bounty program this year, you will need to provide us with 1099 information. If you are not a US Citizen or you do not earn more than 100 Verus in any of our bounty programs combined, we do not need this information. If you are a US citizen planning on earning more than 100 Verus in our bounty programs, please contact one of the community members above to provide your information.

Our bounty offers for the next couple weeks are:
1. Original Content (blogs, articles, videos)
2. Social Network Discussion Starters
3. Translations of Vision Paper abstract: https://versucoin.io/ into Chinese, Japanese, Russian, Korean, Spanish, German, or French.

Every bounty paid will be judged on its merit and is entirely discretionary, we will attempt to be completely fair, but not all contributions will receive a reward. We will not send more than a total of 10,000 Verus. We are open to community ideas for bounties as well, so if you’d like, please suggest your ideas on the Discord #suggestions channel.

We are setting up two Discord channels for this program, the first channel, #10k-bounty-submissions, should be used for only the following information:
For articles, blogs, or video bounties (10 - 100 Verus at the sole discretion of Verus Coin project representatives until total of 5000 Verus paid from budget):
1. Link to evidence of your completion of the bounty (for example, your article, your blog post, your youtube video, no one else's)
2. The VRSC receiving address must be part of the document you link to. We will not send VRSC to a different address than the donation address, which must be in the video description, blog post, or translation itself.

For social network discussion starters (5 - 20, depending on level of engagement on the post and at the sole discretion of Verus Coin project representatives, (please, no spam or content-less shilling - all entries deemed to be spam or trolling will be immediately disqualified). Even reasoned, negative discussion may be eligible, as long as we don’t see it as trolling.
1. Link to your legitimate discussion (Twitter, Reddit, Bitcointalk, Instagram, Facebook)
2. Proof that the poster, tweeter, or originating identity in question is you
3. VRSC receiving address

For translations (20 VRSC for Vision paper abstract translation):
1. Link to first good translation and suggested posting location
2. Proof that you are the author of the translation
3. VRSC receiving address

The second channel, #10k-bounties-paid, will be filled by community members above when they send a bounty, so that everyone can see the bounties paid.

We expect related news in the near future and more bounty programs in the coming weeks, months, and years. We developers need to focus on phase II development more than outreach now, and we have enough knowledgeable community members that we feel the time is right to ask the community to start driving outreach. Going forward, we are looking for people interested in earning bounties for code development, Verus-themed artwork and design, mining integrations, user support, more translations, community management, and marketing. Join us for one bounty or help regularly and earn more.
