Updated June 29Any BTC address is also a valid BTC2 address. You should own the private key to it. Don't tell us a deposit BTC address of an exchange though. It is best that you download the Bitcoin 2 wallet to create a Bitcoin 2 address.
You can also create a BTC/BTC2 address here for example: BitAddress.org
(For extra safety you can just in case download the page and use the generator offline so that the private key cannot be read by the website operator.)
However the BTC2 will only be visible in a wallet that supports Bitcoin 2. Currently only Bitcoin 2 Core. Available at
https://github.com/BITC2/bitcoin2/releases.

April 1: Rule change for twitter: 7. Max 1 tweet per week instead of per day.- Stakes earned before April 1 will honor the old rule of 1 per day.
April 5: Rule change for Articles campaign: The article/post must send at least 10 referrals to bitc2.org (according to google analytics) to be considered for payment. This rule is in effect from April 5 2018 onwards.
Please don't waste your time making copy paste/google translate articles for the article campaign. Of the articles submitted so far, all were hasty copy paste + google translate works. None before April 5 were worth rewarding. Not a single one sent more than one visitor to our website (the one was probably the author)
April 6: Rule change for Twitter and Facebook: Any likes, retweets/shares, comments/replies are only rewarded if done to a tweet or Facebook post made on March 28 2018 or later.- This rule is effective on and after this day. Previous rewards will be counted without this rule. Don't share or retweet the same post more than once.
April 6: New Facebook rule: If you made more than 7 Facebook posts/shares during any 7-day period to your Facebook page/profile that seem like ads or bounty hunting (regardless of what project/business they were about), any posts or shares about Bitcoin 2 to your FB page/profile won't be counted for this bounty program, starting on April 6. Unless they clearly got enough attention from your friends or followers (measured by likes, replies, shares). This is because most of the Facebook campaign participants have just one big spam fest on their Facebook profile and that is not useful to us. Also, any stakes earned by such a Facebook user will be counted at the "less than 250 friends+followers or group members" tier, regardless of how many friends + followers that Facebook user has. Replies, likes and group posts by these Facebook users are still counted.
April 6: New Twitter rule: If you made more than 11 tweets/retweets during any 48 period in the lifetime of your twitter account that seem like ads or bounty hunting (regardless of what project/business they were about), your rewards are counted at the 120 - 499 followers tier. Regardless of how many followers you actually have. This rule is in effect starting in April 6.
April 6: Reply reward change for Facebook: All tiers except the lowest tier (the tier with the lowest number of facebook friends) from now on reward 0.3 stakes for each useful/natural reply/comment instead of the old amount of 0.25/0.45/0.6/0.75/0.9. Because the number of friends is not really a factor. Previous rewards will be counted with the old tiered rule.
April 8: Rule change for Facebook and our Subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/bitc2/. Max 1 post per week instead of per day.- Stakes earned before April 8 will be counted with the old rule of 1 per day. You can still make 1 post per 2 days on subreddits other than reddit.com/r/bitc2
April 10: New Twitter reporting form. Please report your February 16 - March 28 entries at
https://goo.gl/forms/CgmcuIoRbXQIwAWI3. You will be given a 10% bonus for that period as compensation for asking you to report again what you already reported. You no longer need to report your entries to this thread but you can do so anyway. The old join form is still there, but we don't use it anymore except to double check payment addresses. You can find reports for that period and your counted twitter stakes at:

April 12: Rule change for Facebook: Max 2 shares per week instead of 1 per day.- Stakes earned before April 12 will be counted with the old rule of 1 per day.
April 28: Twitter reporting form for the April 6 - April 28 period: https://goo.gl/forms/C8nJbxWpViZSVAI92May 15: Please make sure that you make a new reply with your report in it to the thread after April 28 for the April 29 - May 28 period for your report to be looked at and the stakes in it counted, and after May 28 for the last period of May 29 - June 28. Because we will not look at edits to your old reports that were made before April 29 for the next periods, unless you link to them in a new reply at least.

Reports are only guaranteed to be counted if they are made before June 30. After that it depends on whether or not that campaign's stakes have already been counted before your report. The last period's payouts will start on June 30.

About translation reservations:You can post here that you reserve a language, and others may choose whether they want to honor that reservation. But any language translation "reservation" should be ignored after 24 hours if the translation is not completed.
But in the end regardless of "reservations", the first one to post a quality translation to the correct local bitcointalk forum
or PM it to me for checking will get the stake (reward).
In addition, please post here as soon as possible that you already completed the translation and a link to it (if you chose to just post it instead of sending me a PM) so that others don't waste time thinking about translating it.
Update: March 5: Avatar for signature campaign created.
