If you participate in a signature Campaign in an ico. It doesn't require you to comment on ico itself. But you can simply comment on the thread that the ico tells. For example, you are forbidden to comment on off topic or marketplace. If you keep doing that then it will not count them. But sometimes there are ico that treats where the signature bounty participants in his commentary should promote the ico but with another bonus.

I think I am not sure if it is legal but in my opinion and I agree it is fine to promote a ico you believe.

It will be hard to monitor even if it wasn't allowed so I don't see how its any different than bounties on here.

I was wondering this problem. Do you think some ICO are hiring people to comment positively on their ICO post ?

Is it legal under the forum rules

I am not so sure if it is legal but in my opinion, that is a bad strategy of attracting investors to invest on an ICO. Let the knowledge of unpaid people around decide and describe how this ICO is all about whether it is good or bad at all.

It is called the signature campaign. It's legal, there is no such law pertaining to that argument.

so far I have understood the concept of Signature Campaign. And I agree it is fine to promote a ICO you believe in, and if you are also getting paid for it. Its wonderful.

But ICOs paying people tokens for their post to come up on the first page ? is that legal ?

It just feels like Google SEO strategy

Of course it is legal, considering the fact that there is no rules or law pertaining that is illegal.   ICOs hired people who will wear their signature or avatar and post a comment  following the rules set by the campaign managers.  It is called signature or bounty campaigns. Wearing their signatures and avatar is beneficial for the ICOs that is the reason they are hiring bitcoiners to wear it.

 Even some ICOs offer some bonus payment to those participants who post constructive on their ICOs, It does not necessary require to post positively on their ICOs or promote their project. Meaning, the accepted account user can post anywhere and expressed their ideas on a specific discussion or topics as long as they follow the rules and regulations specified by the campagin managers.

It is indeed legal here,that is called bounty hunting if you have high rank profile here you will receive tokens from the ICOs,you will promote it here in bitcointalk or you can try the social media bounties which will only require you to share,like,retweet some posts using your social media accounts and im sure you are going to receive the tokens.

to my knowledge when following a signature in a project we have to obey the regulations made by a project so likely we'll have to do a post on this forum but should match the topic and constructive so that projects that we come into widespread, is a means of marketing the best and secure IE with a post on the forum bitcointalk so we finished working on it properly and time allowed, we will certainly get in return for all this.

Sure. Whats wrong with that.
Of course i will write nice things about DeepOnion...the most amazing coin in the world Tongue
I want people to get on board.
But this is much healthier kind of marketing.No mind games.
And its a small scale right now.
DeepOnion has 800 people in airdrop. They give away 10K to person in average every month. Its small club.

You can also join signature campaign when your account is atleast a jr.member so you can earn tokens from these ICOs,its not illegal to promote ICOs here in bitcointalk its the way how these ICOs are being promoted,they are hiring high rank profiles to get their ICO's being noticed by the community for exchange to some tokens which if you asked me is a good deal to bounty hunters.

Yeah unfortunately, I worked with them a couple of times but then I realize that it is against the rules of the forum so from now on I will ignore such projects. But I think mods has to lock threads like those or either participants has to report it to mod so that managers can be punished. Participants are forced to post due to the promised amount of money most especially if that participant really needs money for emergency purposes that is why they keep on posting on Ann threads just to be paid. I think ICO team want to gather some positive fake feedbacks from posters in a corrupt manner since they try to fool investors in those threads. They actually have choices where they can have their positive feedbacks such social medias.

Idk how legal it is but I'm pretty sure some ICOs are doing it.

Also call me paranoid but there are some actual shills on here as well, who probably get paid under the radar.

Well are you surprised?

Even in the real world, half of the business is done under the table, in the form of a brown envelope.

Yes we can earn in that after we do post if we have signature campaign ,in campaign there's no rule if you want to post about their project only because we can see it already and we can read already about their campaign under in our post and in past post,all we need to do is do constructive post here in forum like to help in answering a lit of question about to they need to know.

I guess you mean " sig comp" ,as far as I know , it's legal practice,
It's a kind of marketing in order to spread their projects to the community as large  as possible

without doubt this is happening .. this forum i suspect is full of paid sock puppets and undercover shills

many of these low level accounts are scrapped right after they finish with their pump campaigns.

Also ask any of them any kind of probing questions and they vanish never to return to that thread.


The last point is interesting. Little people answer on question probably because of you mentioned. If btctalk has some tools and you would see that someone replied on youre post, it could be solution in my opinion

It's called bounty signature campaings, but they don't force you to write only about their project. You can post whatever you want and thus you advertise a project by wearing their signature. And in most cases it's very profitable both for a project and for a bounty hunter.
Correct explanation but I have seen signature campaigns demanding participants to post on their ICO announcement thread, at least one timer per week. It didn't state that it has to be a positive post, that will probably make it legal on this forum.

Yes, there are campaigns that requires to post on their ANN thread, I think that is, to update (bump) their thread and make it recent or front page on topic listed. Some are requiring to post the twitter and facebook link for reporting.
If paying to bump is allowed then I can totally understand their decision. Getting the ANN thread on the front page might actually be a better way to raise awareness for a project than just signatures, depending on how much.
