also to see that there are campaigns from way back 2017 that are still live on the forum today is really amazing.
Considering how
famous (for a lack of a better word) they've become they're basically cementing themselves in the history of this place, which in return equals more customers. You can't get better reputation than having your signature campaign run for that long.
I want to add one point. In past most campaigns had their payment rates not related to USD value of BTC. Let's say campaign were paying 0.05 BTC/week and it doesn't matter whether Bitcoin costs $500 or $1500. I think that most campaigns made their rates fixed in $ value in 2017 when Bitcoin reached $20 000 for the first time. IIRC, Chipmixer switched to $ fixed payments much later. Yobit also didn't lowered their rates until relaunch of campaign in 2019. I remember they were paying 0.0003 BTC, up to 20 posts per day. So, in theory it was possible to earn 0.006 BTC per day or 0.18 BTC per month.
Right. Times are changing, and for the better. Alright, we all love receiving very high amounts when Bitcoin smashes up in price, but for the longevity of signature campaigns, fixing it to a USD value probably makes the most sense, that's until fiat collapses, but that's another topic for another day.
I personally welcome the changes for the longevity. I think a lot of users will find it hard to admit, but signature campaigns have helped this forum over the years, a sort of sub economy has thrived. Although, that doesn't come without its own problems, which have also been pretty evident through the years, and still are very much a problem today.
