Everything has its time. Signature campaigns aren't the only thing that end abruptly. Working in a bank is seen as a "real" job but we get bankers who get laid off every year. It's the same way it cuts across every other strata of employment. . So, we just take life as it comes.

Just because everything has an end that doesn't mean you won't move on with life. That there are accident on the road doesn't mean you won't take the road (enter cars) when travelling either. Everything has an end but you just have to keep moving until the very end. That's to say if you see a better future with something, you move over to it but that should be something with some actual purpose and not things like signature campaign than can easily end.

The side hustle is quite different and can be utilized on different platforms. For example if you're a coder, even though you current job gets terminated you can easily get another that actually pays well unlike the physical johs. Take designers on the forum as an example, their service get hired frequently and they aren't restricted as it's with physical johs.

I prefer projects that the BM in charge holds the tokens ( Ecsrow ) this gives me peace of mind to keep promoting the project, every other reasons comes later but payment assurance is the first.

I remember managing a campaign that lasted for so long that many would thought it can never end but unfortunately it has ended. If anyone who had quit his job previously for that particular campaign then they'll be jobless by now and won't have any source of incomes.
Well, nothing lasts forever. It's the same way I believe no condition is permanent. Side hustle and "real" jobs also get terminated like signature campaigns too. I haven't seen any engagement that stays forever. Even if the side hustle is in offering programming skills, loan and trade exchange or bounty and signature management on the forum, there are also times drought comes up in such engagements. No business has ceaseless flow in that regard. There are moments patronage don't come. Everything has its time. Signature campaigns aren't the only thing that end abruptly. Working in a bank is seen as a "real" job but we get bankers who get laid off every year. It's the same way it cuts across every other strata of employment. . So, we just take life as it comes.

-Will you quit your job if in a month, you earn more from signature campaign than you do get from working 8am - 4pm?
I earn more from signature campaign than i do get from working in real life. However i won't ever think to leave my actual job for a temporary job which i have any guarantees that it will last forever.

-Is it okay to hinge your life on the earnings you get weekly from your signature campaigns?
Of course it's not Okay. The weekly income from the signature campaign would help you satisfy some secondary needs but it's not recommended to rely on it only.

-Has the existence of signature campaigns on this forum eliminated the need to work offline for other people?  
No Lol Smiley
However, in some countries, the reward from a bounty campaign during a month is ore higher than the average salaries, so by luck many of them made a fortune out of joining campaigns but i am sure they don't set time to the forum over other real life activities uless they have zero hopes that they can do anything valuable in real life. here i am excuding freelancers working all the time on their desktps so joining bounty campaigns for long time was appropriate to them without so much risk that they may lose they only source of income a day or another .

Signature campaign NO, side hustle on the forum YES. Why I give a no to signature is obviously because of the reasons majority of the contributors before me has given. We shouldn't depend on signatures no matter how long you think a campaign can last. I remember managing a campaign that lasted for so long that many would thought it can never end but unfortunately it has ended. If anyone who had quit his job previously for that particular campaign then they'll be jobless by now and won't have any source of incomes.

If it's your side hustle and you notice your job isn't giving you enough free time and probably this side hustle is fetching you more income then your job then quit and concentrate on that side hustle to build it into your main hustle and probably look for alternative jobs (maybe remote) that won't deprive you time on building your business. This side hustle could be the useful skills you have like been a graphic designer, coder etc.

So, we should see whatever stipend anyone earns here from signature campaigns as extra income and not as a main income. One should continue to keep one's job and at the same time being on this forum if they can joggle both.
A little extra from me "even though the revenue of the signature campaign you promote is greater than your monthly salary for a real job".
So far I earn around $100-$200 per month from my real job and that's a bit less than the revenue of the signature campaigns I promote. However I agree with you that the income I generate from the forum should be additional income for me even though I have actually used it to invest. So it's fine to keep both so far for me. Maybe that's what others should think too because signature campaigns don't last forever.

We are moving away from thread's theme into some reasoning regarding the bitcoin discussion, although the topic is not about that.
I was wondering if I were the only one who was getting confused about how discussions started drifting away from the intended topic. I made a few points in my previous post on this thread. Let me push a little more, and that will be to add how exceptional this forum is in the cryptospace to be outstanding to the point of providing an avenue in signature campaigns to reward posters in meaningful coins and tokens that are genuinely redeemable. A few other fora that run bounties pay in alts, and most of those alts are shitcoins.

So, we should see whatever stipend anyone earns here from signature campaigns as extra income and not as a main income. One should continue to keep one's job and at the same time being on this forum if they can joggle both.

The kind of work I do will determine whether am leaving it for signature campaigns earnings or not. If I find the work so stressful and time-consuming, am leaving it without delay. I enjoy having peace of mind more than any other thing.

In real life, if you want to get a loan from a bank to buy an apartment, you must have a regular job and not occasional earnings on the Internet.
Signature campaigns on this forum are a very interesting and safe way to make money but usually don't last long.
For me, signature campaigns are not something I can rely on in the long run, but just an opportunity to collect a little more bitcoin in a safe way and without investing, by writing on the forum, which I would do anyway  Grin
Definitely yes mate if we based on our real-life which every one of us needs a regular job for our daily needs. Regular jobs had a big role to our life cause from it we can buy what we want to eat or what we can to shop. Leaving your regular job because of your salary on participating in signature campaign is a bad ideas cause we all know that all of these are temporary and not all the time we are in the top and also we can not predict what happens to our future so it's better do not leave our regular jobs and this signature campaign we participated let's makes this as a sideline job not a regular job.

I have been making money on the Internet for 20 years and it never occurred to me to quit my regular job.
Things are changing very fast on the internet, and projects that look promising are failing, but there are always some new possibilities.

Interesting. I guess the jobs you do online have never made you large amounts of money. I think the same as you. I have been making money on the internet for more than 10 years, mainly playing poker. At first I thought about making the leap to full time player but just at that time came the poker Black Friday and the money I had on Full Tilt was frozen without me being able to access it, although I got it back some years after that. That event taught me how unstable that world could be, so I decided to keep playing just as a side hustle.

But whether with Poker or signature campaigns I have never earned more than with my 9 to 5 job. If from online jobs I started to earn more, and especially if the amount was double or more, there would come a time when I would consider whether to quit the physical job and dedicate myself only to work online. This bearing in mind that I also have savings and investments that could cover me if things go wrong.

There is no such thing as monthly income in bounties, many months can come and go without you earning a dime from bounties, don't treat bounties as a source of income it's unreliable.

The question is openly written as "signature" and not  "bounties." You're making a mockery of yourself if you rely on bounties and leave your work. Signature may even be a source of passive income for certain people, but at the end of the bounty campaigns, you will surely be chasing after the team and managers.

Yes, I agree with you. Good financial management is always essential. It doesn't matter what we earn, as long as we're spending it wisely and can maintain our standard of living.

I am wondering, do you keep everything that you earn from signature campaigns in some cryptocurrency (one or more) or do you invest in new projects that are riskier? Did you make any calculations to determine which approach would be more profitable?


Do you know how much it's to get a quality top shirt from developed countries? No signature here will maintain your feeding and life expenses no matter how hard you try to maintain your standard of living, your job should be your primary source of living if you don't want to regret any future regrets by quitting your job.
All projects are risky and prices may fall anytime but their damage is more than each other. Pick any and invest wisely.

Quitting your stable job is not a good idea that mindset is very low quality. And I admit that I have that mindset too when I was a newbie and did not have enough knowledge about this. My expectations, that when I quit my job and focus on trading or let's say in the signature campaign it makes me a good life but when I search and gathered some knowledge I realize that it's better to not leave my stable job and this is my extra income now and in the future.

Signature designer - start @$10 - PM me!
If you don't have a main job you must have a main business, only that can guarantee the need. A signature campaign is not an ideal job as a guarantor of necessity. Maybe some new campaigns are held every week or day, on the other hand your chances are getting slimmer as the competition between eligible members increases.

In this sector most of the time bounty manager scam people and who joined for signature and wait for 2-3 months get nothing from this project!!  Yah sometimes it works and give good profit but it is not a stable income how you can leave happily!! You better go for other sector like trading or a stable job!
No, it's not the signature bounty that people are referring to here because obviously it won't earn on a scheduled basis and isn't worth the work.

The answer is No because you won't be so lucky every time, you can promote a bounty project today and make good returns and for the next coming months you get nothing, do not leave your real life job for bounty campaigns it's not worth it.

I will not so as the main income would still support to close off my debts to be frank. I believe many here would do the same. But yes I am here since 2016 and this is the best online platform I have come across to earn without much investment. A lovely platform and well designed application to handle so. The payout structure is most welcomed. Earlier, I think we had campaigns paying monthly but yes now its weekly. Hats off to Bitcoin, bitcointalk and founders of the both.

I have spoken on a similar thread like this before, why is the recap? Wasn't it clear enough?
Why would you quit your job in the first place? Campaigns are short lived no matter how long it has been in existence in the forum, they might decide to change thier advertising and monetisation policies; they can also decide to fold up bounties as alot have mention one above, what will an insane person that made a lame choice to quit his job just to focus on advertising do at the point?!.

I think it is still possible to leave the main job if a person has earned a steady income that is greater than the salary he earns from the main job. For example you earn $200 monthly from your main job, while you can also make $2000 monthly from other jobs like mining or other physical business, then I think it will be safe for you to quit your main job and focus on your other business. It's not a ridiculous mindset, but it's definitely not a signature campaign.

Even if I work for Chipmixer which pays $1200 per month then I will not quit my main job because I believe one day the campaign will end. Just my mind.  Wink

You are correct, but OP is not actually referring to altcoin bounties, yes many of them hardly pay their participants as they more often than not turn out to be a scam, many of their participants are also guilty of quite a lot of spam on the forum (but that is a discussion for another day). Op is talking about Bitcoin paying signatures run majorly by reputable individuals/campaign managers, and yes it usually has a fixed payment amount weekly, and other than a few times a campaign defaults, i can say they always deliver till they decide to stop running the campaign.

Exactly that's why there's no questionable things regarding on this discussion and I will never recommend anyone to quit on their job once they join on decent campaigns since they will never get any good future in this since as discussed all things in signature campaign is temporary. So its better to have multiple jobs so that we may have many income stream and this could really help us build our future.
The signature campaign is only temporary or there will be a specified time limit or an undetermined time. I've been following the signature campaign for about 2 years and I'm still actively paying to this day. It doesn't guarantee the future, but every payment received every week can be saved and used as an investment into some coins or some new project, so the fund will continue to grow and not just be cold money.
All need good financial management so that the future can be better even without a signature campaign.

[Nope]No hype delivers more than hope
-Has the existence of signature campaigns on this forum eliminated the need to work offline for other people? 

It is possible, what is needed is careful planning. Several reasons can make people want to quit their offline jobs.
As some of the previous members have said, you can't leave your main job at once if it's the only thing that guarantees even if the signature campaign you're joining appears to be "long-lived". But that doesn't mean your signature campaign income can't be the start of your main income. The saying goes, "don't just give people fish, teach them how to fish too". So, careful planning what I mean is, don't make your side income as a fish, but make it a fishing rod.

All campaigns have weekly quota, so if even if you spend 10 hours per day writing posts, you are are still limited with the quota. So why not keep doing your job and in your spare time you can write couple of posts each day. Or you are telling me that writing 20-30 posts per week require so much work that you can't do anything else?
Just saying, signature earning doesn't worth quiting your job as said earlier. Unless some high paying campaigns like ChipMixer. Then, if I get into a high paying campaign, instead of trying to work on, I'll rather develop my skills and work remotely or still establish a business. I really value my time working from home.
I don't see the need of always plying the road and taking risk of road accidents everyday to go for work. Smiley

Some persons are saying that signature campaign jobs are not permanent. If I may ask, are there permanent jobs anywhere in the world? If a government worker has a
Yes there are. Come to Croatia, join one of the two ruling parties, be active there and you will get a comfy job that you will work until you retire. Cheesy
That is applicable to many countries, those politicians keep recycling themselves in the office and government jobs such that they tend to return even after retirement.

It also depends on the campaign, a ChipMixer campaign promoter can decide to resign work, still will live comfortably and accomplish some projects.
It's true, amount of money that you can make in some campaigns exceeds average salary of many countries but still, one have to be a fool to rely on that as a permanent income as nothing lasts forever and older you get, harder it gets to get hired for a regular job.
Very true, the older you get, the harder it gets for you to be hired. Yet the younger you are the more 10yrs experience is required  Grin

Therefore, such phrases as digital property came from there. Bitcoin is currently trending towards accumulation.
I know where these phrases come from and I've watched Saylor talking about thermodynamics, but 'til there. He hasn't convinced anyone to use it as a currency, which is the only reason this thing exists. And I'm asking: If there isn't adoption as currency, what's the point of storing value in it?

Volatility excites only speculators.

offline work is a major need, a main passive income and don't be left behind. Signature work is an additional income or support for offline work. If you have a steady offline job then don't waste it. I also get passive income from the signature that I use every week, but I still do other work.

In my opinion, only signature campaign is not enough for a person. It may pay weekly but wages is not much higher compared to a high salary job. Besides,

1. People want recognition
2. There is no guarantee that earnings from signature campaign will last forever.
3. People want self respect which can be found in a good job.

How come anyone even think of that?
1. Signature campaign is a source of income as long as theymos allows us to wear a signature. The day theymos announce stopping the advantage, you will be unemployed.
2. It's not guaranteed that there will be signature campaign available all the time. When I joined the forum, there were only a few BTC paid campaigns while these days there are a lot of campaigns.

Apart from these two, as some other said, earning $50-$100 a week isn't a big deal to leave your daily job though there are some countries where people can live their life with this amount.

Already, even large investors directly say that bitcoin is more than cash, it is digital property, like gold or real estate.
Oh really? What is it then if it's more than cash? What's this buzzword you speak of? “Digital property”? Gold is more than just cash, because I can make a good use of it besides exchanging stuff with it. I can create jewelry, develop electronics, I can even make teeth out of it.

When you own gold, you're storing the intrinsic value that it has once it's utilized in the future. You don't keep it only because it's satisfactory to transfer (which it isn't currently, but anyway). Bitcoin was created to serve this very purpose of exchanging stuff. When you HODL bitcoins, the only thing that you keep is space in a ledger, by the belief that one will use it as a currency in the future.

If there weren't people willing to use it as a currency, there wouldn't be a point at all.

And now bitcoin is much more profitable to accumulate, rather than spend on purchases in stores.
How's that? In 2013 it was far more volatile.

I honestly can't believe that anyone that is true bitcoiner is advocating against spending BTC, even if it was for everyday stuff.
I don't think he's against. He's just discouraged to.

I agree with Rikafip you shouldn't repeat that 3 or 4 times in a row in the beginners section IMO. "Hodling" is not the only right way to use Bitcoin, it's the only way to not use it actually. Moreover Bitcoin is a highly volatile asset, and therefore a highly risky one. Beginners should never hold Bitcoins acquired at the ATH.

Seriously? But Michael Saylor, who has more than 100,000 bitcoins, disagrees with you. He calls his company buying bitcoin a low-risk strategy.

We look at the historical chart of bitcoin.



Bitcoin has always been bullish, what risk are you talking about? Volatility in bitcoin matters only for speculators and traders, long-term investors do not pay attention to it.

And what do you conclude from this? You think Bitcoin will continue to rise indefinitely toward the sky? You don't see a curve on your graph?
How much did you earn in one year of holding precisely?
Bitcoin was worth $52k one year ago, then you've lost USD actually and even russian rubles certainly.
There is no free lunch in economy as Milton Friedman would say.

And when I repeat this strategy, saying that now it’s not worth spending bitcoins, but it’s better to hold them, Rikafip crawls out and says that this is nonsense. Grin Grin Grin

First and foremost Bitcoin is money so there is no bad time to spend it. I don't advocate to spend everything as soon as you get some (you are free to do that though, won't say anything bad about those) but there is absolutely nothing wrong in spending it when you want to buy something, especially when you can do it directly without 3rd party involved (like using crypto debit cards for example).

How the hell would we ever reach this kind of adoption if everyone had your mindset? And yes, it doesn't matter whether if its 2011, 2015 or 2022.

What Ratimov doesn't understand is that all these things add up; from those that spent Bitcoin when it was $0.10, $10, $100, $100 and right until now when its $40k+. I honestly can't believe that anyone that is true bitcoiner is advocating against spending BTC, even if it was for everyday stuff.

Definitely no because signature campaigns aren't really stable. It might run for a week or two or may be it might run for a year or two.
But nobody can say how long it may lost. So quitting your day job will just be foolishness.

Quote
-Is it okay to hinge your life on the earnings you get weekly from your signature campaigns?

It really depends on where you live and the cost of living in that territory. It also depends on how well you are at money management.
If you spend money lavishly you would hardly be able to live off signature campaign earnings.
Spending money while saving enough is really hard from these earnings.

Quote
-Has the existence of signature campaigns on this forum eliminated the need to work offline for other people? 

It hasn't eliminated the need of offline work but it has helped many people stabilize their total monthly income.
People earn a decent income from signature campaigns and that can help them to manage expenses but not solely depend on it.

Well someone has to call out the bullshit you just wrote so newbies that are reading this board don't get the wrong impression about Bitcoin and early adopters.

This obviously should be done not by people like you, provocateurs who are trying to expose the interlocutor in some bad way, attributing to him those words that he never said. Cheesy

It was you  who mentioned the 1-10 dollar range and last time BTC was in that range was probably 2011. If those are not the early times for Bitcoin and if they are not the OGs, then who is?

You don't know the price history of bitcoin very well. The range that I named (1-10%) was with bitcoin until August 2012. And your story with pizza is actually 2010, when bitcoin was in its very infancy and many did not understand what to do with it, so we saw similar transactions, faucets that gave several bitcoins for solving captchas and so on. I think in 2012-2013, when the first major bitcoin exchanges appeared, people began to value bitcoin more.

So if you don’t understand what I meant, it’s better not to go in with your value judgments and fantasies about it, whom I called there or did not call moron. Here is a bitcoin historical price service: https://bitcoin.zorinaq.com/price/

Enlighten yourself.
I agree with Rikafip you shouldn't repeat that 3 or 4 times in a row in the beginners section IMO. "Hodling" is not the only right way to use Bitcoin, it's the only way to not use it actually. Moreover Bitcoin is a highly volatile asset, and therefore a highly risky one. Beginners should never hold Bitcoins acquired at the ATH.

I know exactly what you meant. And me missing BTC price by a 6 months or a year (that's why I used the word probably) doesn't change the fact that all those who used the Bitcoin in 1-10 USD range for various stuff (including trivial crap) shouldn't be seen as those that did some kind of mistake as that's exactly what gave Bitcoin its value, people willing to exchange goods and services for it.

That depends on your day job. I assume that most of us here have a day job that allows us to occasionally log onto the forum and read a few posts. There are plenty of times when I have been browsing forums, seen an topic and thought, "I should comment on that," but didn't because I didn't want my employer to know that I was reading a discussion board during work hours.  Wink

Those who spent bitcoins when they cost 1-10 bucks, for all sorts of nonsense, for translating a text, for consolation prizes, for food, taxis, paying phone bills...and now 5-6 years have passed and the cost of these services is now estimated at millions of dollars.
Those early adopters who actually used Bitcoin for what it is created for are the reason why we are here on this forum talking about Bitcoin so instead looking at them like some fools that spend Bitcoin on trivial stuff, you should see them as OGs and thank them for what they did.

Every time I hear the nonsense you just wrote I like to share something from Laszlo Hanyecz (one of the morons by your standards) on the reasoning why he spent 10000 BTC on couple of pizzas while he could easily bought it with fiat.

what I was trying to do was make it clear that I didn't want somebody to send me a Papa John's gift card, or a Domino's credit or anything like that - I wanted food and I wanted to pay Bitcoins for food. Because if I can buy food with it, then it's it's as real as any other money, right? Food is a basic necessity -- if I can eat from Bitcoin, I can live off of Bitcoin.

living completely on the money received from the forum is generally a path to nowhere, zero development, just stupidly spent valuable cryptocurrency for some banal natural needs.

That is something impossible not to agree with. What skills can a person develop just by posting on the forum? Improve English, speed typing. That is something future employer is not searching for. Maybe gaining all that knowledge from forum will help someone to become a journalist, or a writer one day. But that maybe confuses me. Having earnings only from forum signature campaign does not create a feeling of confidence in tomorrow.

It is easy to say that if you are all around crypto news and things that happens, it is easy to make 10 or 100 posts a day. But if you have other interests, other things that require time, then it will be rather complicated to post a lot. Even just reading news and forum eats a lot of time.

Why go far? Let's remember our Ratimov. I also know a person who lived on subscription ChipMixer, in addition to this, he led several telegram channels, also without having an offline job.

We are comparing unique forum users with regular jobs. Of course a persons that work shifts behind payment terminal in supermarket would love to quit his job to be able to earn from from a single signature.

Additionally, just look at the list of participants, most of them were able to meet the required number of posts.

I am not saying that it impossible to meet post quota, but check posting time of those who make 50 post per week. Often their posts are spread during whole day. I wish I could have that much time to spend on cryptocurrency.

Are you talking about ChipMixer? Receiving $1200 per month just for writing posts no doubt is a lot. But I am not sure that a person can write 50 posts per week for a long period. If I were to write 50 posts per week, I would burn out after several months. I think that with such amount of weekly posts, there will be free time for a proper freelance job. Instability of crypto prices will be like a sword above my head.
There have been cut-offs in the Chipmixer Campaign rates also but still it's good payout to the participants and you could see the members delivering the most quality content on the forum and one of the longest running campaign on the forum.You are paid for max 50 posts in CM campaign and you could go beyond that also as per your wish or time you are willing to spend on the forum.

But if you see making that much of post won't consume your full day and only few hours dedication is sufficient to deliver 7-8 posts per day but that of good quality only.At first i was also not much engaged in forum and limited posts were made but after that i developed keen interest in learning new things and participate in more discussion and you see my weekly post went to 30 above from few time and it doesn't cost me much of time.Once you start doing it you won't get exhausted and rather enjoy it.

I no longer trade, I just invest and accumulate bitcoin.  Smiley
Well that will add to much of your bonuses in this crypto market and urge to follow your passion.Same mentality that accumulation phase is best for only bitcoin and this earning is surplus to your regular income which can be safely secured for long term in btc only.

I am sure many people can and many do. My average is around 40 posts, and in my current sig campaign I only get paid for 25. That's apart from the fact that I have a main job, I also play poker and have some social life. If I didn't have a main job I think I could write 100 posts.

Ok, maybe it is possible to make 50 posts per week for months and years. I was judging its impossibility after seeing how and what people write on cryptotalk forum to make 20 posts/daily quota. Maybe some people find it easy to make so many posts thanks to their skills and knowledge.

There was one in the CM campaign that had 3 or 4 alts until he got caught. He must have been writing 150 weekly posts at least.

That is a different story. In some cases, that will be worth switching regular work to forum writing if there will be 3 or 4 campaigns that pays like ChipMixer. But I see it like living life behind a screen. 24/7 just posting, posting, posting. That suits only for a no-life people.

Anyway, I wont change regular work income for signature campaign payments. People here, who says it is worth switching, they are comparing highest paid signature with highest rank with an average or below average job income. That is incorrect. They should make comparison more equal. It takes time to rank up and luck to get into a highly paid campaign. Compare income of top manager in huge campaign and being a legendary in ChipMixer or Bestchange. Or being a full member that frequently changes signature campaigns (as they ran for 4-12 weeks only) with average salary in your country. Results will be different.

There is only one subscription company on the forum with which one could quit the main job. But as mentioned earlier, there is no guarantee that a well-paid company will exist for a long time. In addition, you need to have good knowledge to get into a good signature company. But in addition to working on the forum, if you wish and experience, you can find more part-time jobs on the Internet, given that if one income disappears, you will not end up with an empty trough.
But just hoping to make a living working on the forum would be a very stupid move, because the irony of life is that everything happens the other way around. Don't forget that it's good to be confident, but don't overestimate yourself.

Signature campaign are just like a part-time jobs. They pay you weekly and that is the only plus point here as you can use that earning for your weekly part-time expense. Some campaigns here have been running for more than a year but most do not run for long term. Hence, your income is not consistent with signature campaign. A stable job provides you a constant source of income and therefore you would be fool enough to leave a stable income source.

I don't know what living costs are generally in lesser developed countries, but £9000 a year would still be cutting it close, right? Surely, the better idea would be to use this as a supplement onto your current wages, potentially keeping a decent amount of your wealth in Bitcoin, hoping that it rises like it has throughout history, and potentially escape the poor conditions you live in (obviously, not all lesser developed countries have poorer conditions per say).
Not that you don't have to go out of Europe that  £9000 (which is approximately $12000) yearly income appear decent, but not even out of EU countries. For example, in my country (Croatia) which is in EU, high school teacher make no more than that. In Romania and Bulgaria which are also part of EU situation is probably even worse when it comes to that, AFAIK.


then the majority of countries tax that, so let's say you take another 20% off obviously depending on where you live
When it comes to reporting the money we get via signature campaign, I don't think that many on this forum are doing that. I do agree that there are additional costs when it comes to paying  everyday stuff with Bitcoin as you can count on loosing at least 1-2%, and that's the best case scenario in which you are using crypto debit card, but then you are risking getting caught and paying tax + fine.

Some persons are saying that signature campaign jobs are not permanent. If I may ask, are there permanent jobs anywhere in the world? If a government worker has a retirement time. That's by the way.
Speaking about quiting your job for signature campaign, it all matters the part of the world one is coming from.
In countries where their currency is worth lesser, campaign tippings can make the person resign from work.
No, there's no such thing as stable work. Although, generally when you go to a mortgage company or a bank they want at least some back dating documents supporting your income claim. Now, some signature campaigns have been running long enough that they would fill this criteria, but it's by no means guaranteed that they continue in the future, just like a real job. There are more stable jobs than others though. For example, if you work in the local council, they aren't likely to go bust anytime soon, however if you work for a start up company, they're much more likely to go bust than a company that has been operating for years.

However, we've seen it with past signature campaigns that after a long period of time advertising they suddenly stopped. Didn't this happen with the lightlord one recently? I know there's personal circumstances involving that one, but that's the type of unpredictable things that can impact earnings from both normal jobs, and signature campaigns.

It's true, amount of money that you can make in some campaigns exceeds average salary of many countries but still, one have to be a fool to rely on that as a permanent income as nothing lasts forever and older you get, harder it gets to get hired for a regular job.
I'm probably a little out of touch on how little some people earn in some countries, and signature campaigns might actually be one of the most lucrative sources of incomes from those demographics, but surely when you compare signature campaigns, the highest paying around £225 a week, then the majority of countries tax that, so let's say you take another 20% off obviously depending on where you live, your probably looking at less than £9000 when you consider that they'll have to take out that money, and pay fees along the way, since I doubt they'll be able to solely live off Bitcoin, we aren't quite there yet.

I don't know what living costs are generally in lesser developed countries, but £9000 a year would still be cutting it close, right? Surely, the better idea would be to use this as a supplement onto your current wages, potentially keeping a decent amount of your wealth in Bitcoin, hoping that it rises like it has throughout history, and potentially escape the poor conditions you live in (obviously, not all lesser developed countries have poorer conditions per say).

The above math is only roughly done, and that's assuming that you're earning the absolute maximum amount of money on the forum, which I do believe is the £225 a week. That's not something anyone can earn either, the higher levels just like a real job are usually only open for the higher ranked, and more established users, which usually takes years upon years to establish.

I've traveled to some pretty remote places which were considered to be run down (although I thought they were absolutely beautiful from the inside), and while I did find it pretty cheap, I think if your living there you'll have to factor in medical bills, or accept the condition of your health without any help, which isn't exactly ideal, and would put me onto the assumption that it isn't enough.

It's not so about can you live with the money you make from the signature campaign, as there are (unfortunately) many countries where average monthly salary is only few hundreds of dollars, but why should you quit your job in order to live only from signature campaign?

All campaigns have weekly quota, so if even if you spend 10 hours per day writing posts, you are are still limited with the quota. So why not keep doing your job and in your spare time you can write couple of posts each day. Or you are telling me that writing 20-30 posts per week require so much work that you can't do anything else?

Yes there are. Come to Croatia, join one of the two ruling parties, be active there and you will get a comfy job that you will work until you retire. Cheesy

I've gained a lot about Bitcoin and what's around it. As for the signature is a bonus and motifasi to always be useful for the forum.

Participating in a signature campaign is not a job. Managers could kick you off for low quality posts, or signature could end... or maybe one day rules will change and signature no more offered on forum, or who knows what could happens in the future!
Normally I think that you can earn much more in your life and not following signature campaign even in a poor country (because you have a good education that allow to access to certain type of jobs or more over you have enough culture to create your business from the scratch)

Absolutely not. There are too many factors that could disrupt this business in a matter of minutes, people before me have pointed several examples.

Despite some signature campaigns provide a good amount of cash, this is not enough for a living or at least this is not enough for live in a safe way. If you want provide a good content, you need to spend a lot of time on forum. With the same amount of time you can earn much more in a classic job (online or offline). Signature campaign are just "tips". they are helpful but I don't rely too much on it... this is not a stable income.

How can you earn more from signature campaigns than from regular work from 8 am to 4 pm? Even with the best paid campaigns, you can hardly earn more than the minimum wage (depending on where you live). Moreover, your signature campaign can end at any time and then you will be unemployed, so you will have no income.

You should absolutely not quit your day job and only participate in signature campaigns. What if the day after you hand in your resignation, the signature campaign you are in ends? What if Bitcointalk gets hacked or seized. Tongue What if theymos decides that signature campaigns won't be allowed anylonger? There is no certainty with signature campaigns. You didn't sign a contract and the manager could just drop you and accept someone else to do your "work".

Besides, if you are comparing the income from your real job to what you earn in a BTC sig. campaign, look at it as a pay rise. You are now in the same category as that boss of yours who you hate so much. Why would you want to change that? Wink

Signature campaign income is very unreliable, compared to regular job. Too many factors that can easily and in to time turn such income in a complete zero. I can lose an account or a wallet. Campaign might end suddenly, be put on pause or scam participants, or campaign wallet can be hacked. Ever heard that regular company bank account has been cleaned out and company can not pay you salary? I have never faced or heard that. Cryptocurrency prices might drop down. Crypto can become illegal in your country and cashing out funds might turn into a problem. Dont forget that, in case of sudden signature campaign end, there is no labor exchange in crypto, that will help you financially, when you search for new signature campaign. And most important, this forum was made not for earning, but for help.

-Will you quit your job if in a month, you earn more from signature campaign than you do get from working 8am - 4pm?
The simple answer is NO to this question because you can't rely on them completely as they are temporary.The traditional jobs or say your regular jobs are also not paying too much low if you make comparisons with signature campaign.The only good paying one's are Best Change and Chipmixer on forum while all other pay your normal amounts weekly.But say if you come from developing or third world country where wage rate is low and you can earn more through forum then also don't leave it as job is regular source of income for you.

-Is it okay to hinge your life on the earnings you get weekly from your signature campaigns?
If you think that your daily survival can go easily with these signature campaign then you are wrong because if you think long term you also need to save some amounts and relying completely on them is tough to do.For me I am working but spending quality time on forum and saving my signature earnings which seems best to me.

If you care to look closely on signature campaign on the forum you could find out that only few are running from long time on the forum while other ends in a month or more time period frame so could you risk it to leave your job for it? You can work side by side and  manage to take some time out to write up some useful Post and learn from others.This is best approach.

1) Even if the signature campaign paid me more than with my job, why would I quit my job if I can continue with my job and signature campaign.

2) A signature campaign that would pay more than my job would have to pay much more than the Chip Mixer campaign, which I see quite unlikely.

3) Another reason is instability, insecurity. To quit my job, I would have to trust that the signature campaign will continue to give me work for many years, which I don't trust.

So I don't. I would not change it. Another thing could be the case of someone who is in a good financial position, with a good net worth and with considerable Bitcoin holdings, who could quit his job to live on income, and supplement his income with the signature campaign and some other online hobby that generates income.

Signature earnings is not enough. It's why most of the post in the thread says so. Not sure if all of us expect to get the monthly income since most of the campaign pays weekly and it goes straight casino most of the time in order to bet.

If a user is not a gambler, his earnings can be a good addition to this day job earning which the money can be used to putting food on the table. Or beer money like it used to.

-Will you quit your job if in a month, you earn more from signature campaign than you do get from working 8am - 4pm?
No, I won't try it and I won't advise anyone to embark on such an expidition; except if the person's job endangers their health. Anything that endangers one's health shouldn't be tolerated. Health is wealth and only a man who is alive has the capability of making wealth.

The vast majority of users will be supplementing their stable income from other sources with signature campaign earnings. Although, I can't see how anyone, at least from a developed country could earn enough to live off of it. Even the highest paying signatures aren't exactly paying top wages when compared with traditional jobs.
Well, even in developed countries what some campaigns pay weekly is still something they can't throw away. Let's take for instance when Chipmixer paid based on Bitcoin and not the dollar pegged rate now. At the current Bitcoin rate, every user who makes 50 posts will have be making around $1,600 weekly. That's something substantial, even in developed countries. Don't you think so? Come to think of it, even at the current pay rate; $300 is a nice pay check too to make one stay at home and not work elsewhere if they desired.

Poorer countries, and those that live their life frugally I can see benefiting from it, although it would probably make sense for them to still work another job trying to get out of the situation they're in. I guess it ultimately comes down to personal circumstances. As for me, I still work.
Yes, it's always good to have another stream(s) of income even when one thinks one is making a hell of money from the main job. No one becomes wealthy relying on one source of income.

Well if the earnings and the campaign is quite stable. Also its gonna be tough I think since no one can say that for sure. Its not advisable since this isnt considered as a job. Also youll still you wanted to benefit on some employment or business perks instead.

Yes earning is good on some campaign like btc paid however its not gonna be enough only for you. Even high paid campaigns arent stable, you can be kick or the campaign would stopped anytime.

For many reasons, you should not
  • The forum is not an ATM
  • You can not control on how others, exclusively spammers do on the forum
  • In bad case, spam endemic is uncontrollable, theymos might do hard things such as shutting down all signature and the signature campaign, bounty industry will die.

On the forum, you can learn many things which are helpful for your adventure in crypto but don't put all your life into anything, exclusively this forum. Decentralizing your jobs and your income resources is better.

If you do research, you will know many top signature campaigns which last years and look like will last forever, suddenly stopped. Bitsler, Bustadice, YOLOdice, etc. No party will last forever!

Actually, it will depend on each person, what kind of person it will be. But, I don't think that most will do quitting jobs for this Signature campaign. We know that the payment of the signature campaign is exactly very high, higher than probably the monthly salary from the office. But it doesn't mean able to guarantee the income to be last forever.
There may be some possibilities:
However, if we are ding this signature campaign with a high salary and also doing some trading or other crypto activities, I think it is possible, but this is very risky. Expect, we have been here for a long time, understanding the best ways to earn money from crypto not only from the signature campaign (because exactly, no one guarantees that the signature campaign will last forever, or after that, we can get another signature campaign again or not). But if we can save our money from the signature campaign, make it for another business, trading and also really understand about trading, it seems possible enough to focus on these crypto jobs.
Being focus in some certain job, being serious will probably open our ways to be here longer.
But once more, this will be a risky decision.

I don't think it eliminated the need to work offline, and that basically answers all of the above questions. Sig campaigns should be viewed as a nice supplementation to forum activities and what the forum is actually about, and in that way, it should also be viewed as supplementation to your earnings outside of crypto. If there is no reason to put all of your eggs into one basket, then don't do it. Broaden your income possibilities as much as possible because there are no sure things, so best to maximize where possible.
I agree to this, since signature campaigns come and goes, you can't find any stable salary here since the prices of each participants varies from campaign to campaign. And a lot of other possibilities that you won't get a better life in here than quiting on your stable job. Prices of BTC is unstable hence your salary will get affected by it whereas if you have a stable job that feeds you for an entire month, then why would you quit? Unless of course, if your job is much more hassle and stressful, you should quit but find a new one instead. Just like what the above said, maximize your way to make more money/profit. Make some business then.

Bitcointalk is not for signature campaigns. Anyone who quits a stable job for signature campaign is likely to end up becoming an account farmer and cheating signature campaigns with multiple alts. Earning $40 weekly can’t take care of one’s needs, housing, food supplies, health care, insurance e.t.c. Some have abused the forum and turned it into a farm.

Why would one have to quit their job, except of course if they are struggling to make posts which could be as a result of lack of knowledge or something, for users who find it easy to communicate on the forum they wouldn't have to quit their job to continue with their signature campaign, they can comfortably do the both and earn from the two, notwithstanding which one pays higher.
-Is it okay to hinge your life on the earnings you get weekly from your signature campaigns?
No, that will be too risky a thing to do, campaigns end abruptly, campaign owners can decide at anytime to stop running their campaigns, and of course they'll do so without any prior information to participants, it's much better to 'employ' signature campaigns as backup to a RL job, that way you're somewhat secured financially from both ways.
-Has the existence of signature campaigns on this forum eliminated the need to work offline for other people? 
For some people it may have, but mind you that people work also for passion, I don't think people who actually love the job they are doing in real life will stop it for signature campaigns, no, they'll of course carry on with their passion, and still engage in signature campaigns if they can sufficiently make out time for it.

I won't even if one pays more than hundred USD in Bitcoin. It is not something that you could maintain in the long-term. Think of it as just like an icing on the cake.
I can't imagine people wanting to choose SCs instead of their office jobs.
If your 8-5 or 8-4 isn't paying really well while you're in an SC, you should think of finding a better job rather than relying on these.

Freelance is one hell of a fun thing to earn money from as well. Smiley

Signature campaigns are great for your additional revenue, not your primary income. In third countries $60-$100 per week is a pretty big amount, but in the end you also have to admit that signature campaign revenue is just additional revenue when the campaign is over. After all, 5-8 posts per day on the sidelines of the busyness of your main job is still possible if you really like interacting in forums with many users.

-Has the existence of signature campaigns on this forum eliminated the need to work offline for other people?
It seems not to me. There is always an opportunity to do something for others without interfering with anything I do on this forum including my participation in signature campaigns. But if someone has dozens of accounts devoted to signature campaigns then they really have forgotten a lot of things in the real world and focused solely on forum to reach its weekly post quota.

No, Why would I quit a full time paying job if I can earn from that job while also earning from signature campaign.

-Is it okay to hinge your life on the earnings you get weekly from your signature campaigns?
No, not all campaign can provide your needs on a weekly basis for you to hinge you life on it.

-Has the existence of signature campaigns on this forum eliminated the need to work offline for other people? 
I guess there are still some people who abuse the signature campaigns on the forum especially on the altcoin sections.


Bounty programs such as signature campaigns helped me throughout my college days. Also, if you want to go full time on crypto, you may want to explore more on this forum rather than focusing on the signature and bounty campaigns.

No, even if signature campaigns can last for 1-2 years, I think one day they will stop. Signature campaigning is not a permanent job although I believe the salary could be higher or equal to the salary of a government employee in my country. Call it a chipmixer signature campaign, they pay a maximum of $1200 for each eligible participant per month, but I'm sure many of them won't quit their main job just because the pay is higher than their main job.

Signature campaign can indeed help many things in my life to fulfill several needs. But I can't rely entirely on signature campaign because I believe these are promotions that have a breaking point if the owner or site feels it's time. So the main work I will still do even though sometimes the pay is lower than the signature campaign.

Its not only signature campaign earnings, I would say, it might be any earnings coming though part time jobs, never quite your main job though you might earn equal amount or higher than your main job. A constant earnings needs to be there to satisfy all basic needs every month. Yes, every one will be happy to have more earnings from part time job. But never quite main jobs until the part income becomes stable and constant.

There are too many factors to be worried about, I think it's not worth the risk.

1. Signature campaigns comes and goes
2. They don't have equal payouts, very few are high and many are low.
3. Most won't keep to their promises, they will fail to pay up.
4. Most bounties pays a month or more after the campaign ends.
5. Too many scam projects.
6. Many good projects don't use bounties for advertising their projects anymore.
7. Imagine you wake up one day and this website is no more.

Too many reasons not to rely on counties, a job in the real world is more reliable.

I'll skip the fact that you can't live off signature campaigns in developed countries. Let's focus on: Why should you quit your job? How much time does it take to make a few posts every week?

If the signature campaigns asks for 50 posts, okay, be it. But, I'm not sure if I can post more than 60-70 times even if my campaign says so, let alone constructively. So, I can't answer to your question(s) unless you become more clear.

For the first question, the beauty behind signature campaigns that it is flexible enough for you to do them without compromising much of your time. For example, if you are required to do 25 posts/week, you can divide and allocate these posts (e.g. you can do 4-5 posts/day).

For the second question, it has not. Again, the beauty of these signature campaigns is that it is relatively easy compared to most works. You can freely finish and create quality posts as long as you meet the requirements. That is why, most people viewed signature campaigns as an "alternative way" of earning money due to its simplicity and convenience.

- Signature campaign is not forever, Most of the campaign has a short duration and only few last longer. There's no assurance that you can have a fix income here. Campaign is not worthy to quit job unless your job is shit.

-As my first answer, Why you will fully depend on income that has an expiration date. There's also a strong competition here if only few campaigns is active. So you will be having a hard time entering a decent campaign.

-LOL



 I'm living on 3rd world country but my Salary as a professional is x20 greater than here while I can still use the forum casually during my free time. Thinking Signature campaign as full time job will just force you to provide low quality post just to meet the post quota or an essay type post with zero value.

I would not and would advice against it. This forum is by no means a stable way of earning an income, especially not through participating in signature campaigns;
• It is an unreliable way to earn a living,
• Depends on too many external factors, your account not getting hacked, the forum staying up etc. You cannot take your experience of working in Sig campaigns in search of another job, but you can do that in real life.
