Topic: I am a beginner (Read 263 times)

Few weeks ago, I became a member of this forum and I asked similar question.
I feel you'll learn more by going through the thread. Here is the link below:

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.54173095

just earn merits and ranking up will be easy for you. And about that joining for money , your talking about bounty campaigns you can already join on social media bounties cause its open for all members.

I hope you are having a good time and still learning more in this forum. Things would seem to be quite hard at first but as long as you engage yourself in this forum through different topics, you would be more familiar each in every day. Just keep in mind the Do's and dont's, and you would do well without getting into trouble.

So to address your concerns furthermore,


Those members probably have earned merits already from interacting to this forum by creating topics, and sharing opinions on different threads in this forum. You would earn merit if other users will give it to you. They nay give you merit if they find your topic or post interesting, informative or is making sense. There are also DTs which are giving often as well as other users. So just be patient.

Ranking up depends on your earned merit and nunber of activities. Each Rank is determined by a specific number of activity and merit. So technically, in order to move up, you should meet the required number of merit score and activity.

This is the guide on the number of merits and activity to be met on each of the ranks a user could be.

This chart I think is clear enough to be understood. And if you still have questions, feel free to hit me with a message.


Aside from the things that other users have mentioned already, I would suggest reading about bounty projects, trading, and investments because that is what crypto is all about especially at this moment wherein it is not yet being mainly used as a digital currency. I mean, it is being used in transactions but more people found it more useful in order to generate profit.

I think that's best left to the experienced, assuming you're referring to those on this forum.

Hello mate welcome to this forum, I hope you will stay for so long here and always create useful posts. This forum is really good for learning ang making money but always prioritize the learning because making money from here will come if you get fully knowledgeable about cryptcourrency.

You claim to have read things... how did you not read the sticky posts at the top of the "Beginners & Help" forum?

Specifically, this one: Newbies - Read before posting.

It contains the answers to all three of your questions.


I can tell you this, you will not learn everything there is to know about this forum in 2 days. I've been here nearly 4 years... and I'm still learning.


Please don't go creating topics just because you think you're going to get merit out of it... and make sure to search the forum for an existing topic before you do. Every week we get newbies joining the forum, claiming they're here to "help"... and we get another round of "how to earn merit?", "how to rank up?", "how to have signature?", "how to have avatar?", "what is best wallet?" threads...

Create threads about unique and interesting topics and you'll be fine... recycling the same stuff that has been thrashed to death 1000 times is just going to end up with you being put on ignore lists. Personally, I would suggest you find topics that interest you and/or that you have knowledge in... and read and contribute in those first before creating any topics.

Welcome and Good luck!

Welcome!

First of all, I recommend that you study to Unofficial list of (official) Bitcointalk.org rules, guidelines, FAQ
When you figure out the rules of the forum you will understand a lot.

Be sure to read the first two pages of comments under the first post there is an interesting explanation.

You can also look into the branch Everything you need to know about forum 'activity, account ranks and merit
To expand your knowledge regarding the merit system.

When a little comfortable, I invite you to this topic LoyceV's Beginners guide to correct use of the Trust system.
There you will learn how the trust system on the forum works and how to use it.

Well, I've been around for almost 4 years (with its off-times, lol) and I must tell you, it does indeed take more than a couple of days to learn about the forum. Another (helpful) advice if you are going to start creating threads is to question whether the thread is neccessary.

Let me explain myself here: There are some topics that are rather useful, but have been over-exploited; you get thousand of threads about the same topic. That is cocunter-productive, and mods will lock your thread or delete it. Always search if that "new" thing you are going to post is in fact "not new". Another thing related to that: don't necrobump unless it's 100% neccessary. I've seen users reply to posts from 2014 (6 years), with information that altough being "relevant" is completely unnecessary.

For example, everything merit related you've asked can be found either at the guides I linked or here, and many many more threads

I'm sure more users will tell you other things to take into account
