There are quite a number of signature participants that are from the Philippines. It might be a case of the interconnected culture resulting in a quicker spread of Bitcoin, not to mention the infrastructure that readies users for bitcoin adoption (like coinsph)
It's quite convenient for the users to use a service like coins.ph to distribute the payments. It saves them time and the transaction fees are non-existent so which is good. It's great that they are using that, I wasn't aware the first time I looked into it. Nevertheless, at least they got paid.
Also it is quite common within local communities to share new campaigns with each other as soon as they pop up. And when in that case the filipino-community found this new campaign first and applied for it first, too + the manager does accept applicants on "first come, first serve" basis, than this could possible be the reason. Did not check for the timestamps, so just an idea for the moment.
I understand. That would definitely be an advantage on being part of a group where you exchange ideas and lift everyone else in that group for the betterment of everyone. For a new campaign, I think that
"kind-of-rule" will apply because maybe good posters would apply first and you can lose a spot.
