Topic: Some basic questions from a newbie (Read 170 times)

With regards to stake..it depends on the bounty campaign manager on they how they intend to use it
For example lets say you wrote an article for a bounty campaign and you got lets say 3k stakes
The stakes u get may be divided by a certain amount of no to determine the coins you get
E.g u got 3k stakes the ratio of stakes to coin can be 0.15 stakes
Meaning 3000*0.15=450 coins
While some other campaign the number of stake u get is equal to the no of coins meaning its in a ratio 1:1

I hope this answers your questions...

Your UID is displayed when someone looks at your profile... if you click on the name next to a post, you can see their profile and the URL will be of the form:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=USERS_UID

For instance, yours is: https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/dedicatedguy-2039812

So your UID = 2039812


If you read the announcement for the project (or the "bounty" campaign), it should specify how many tokens/coins are to be reserved to pay the users participating in the campaign. Some will specify a percentage (ie. 10% of tokens sold at ICO), some will specify a set amount (ie. 1,000,000 tokens).

I have no idea why they used the term stakes, but at the end of the campaign, you should then be given a share of the tokens based on your "stakes" collected. How this is actually calculated varies from one project to another.

Sometimes, there is a 1:1 relationship between "stakes" and "tokens"... you earn 1000 "stakes", you get 1000 "tokens"... other times it is based on your share of the total "stakes" that ALL the campaign participants have accumulated... ie. you end up with 1000 stakes... total stakes generated by all participants = 74157, so your share is 1000/74157 = 1.35%, so you can expect to get 1.35% of the tokens set aside for the campaign.

Be VERY careful to read things properly... there are NUMEROUS "scam" accusations over in the scam accusations board regarding payouts from various campaigns not being as much as users thought they were going to get... and/or projects changing the rules etc.

Hello, thank you for answering.

About #1, it is not login information, just info about the user to keep control of the bounties. Where can I find my bitcointalk ID?

About #2, in here for example, https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bxunty-official-zypcoin-zyp-bounty-campaign-3273444 in the article/media campaign they say they reward 10-30 shares per article (this is just an example). What I do not understand is, what are those shares?

Like a fixed quantity of tokens?

Hello.

I am new on bitcointalk but I have been reading about crypto for like 10 months, and I have been active on steemit for like 4 months. I have several noob questions about this forum and the bounty dynamic.

1) in bountyhive.io I can put my bitcointalk info, it asks for my ID in here, and I believe it is a number but I don't know where to find it?

2) when a project says it rewards stakes for certain tasks in the bounty campaign, what exactly are those stakes?

I would really appreciate if someone could answer these simple questions.

Thanks!
