I just wondering about the future of this forum, the signature campaigns and the bounties. If everyone will do bounty and signature, then there will be no future, right?
I think making money through different campaigns is one of the main targets why people come here, it is somewhere between two other targets: to know more about bitcoin and to sell something through the forum. While the commercial performed by signature/bounty campaigns works and attract investors or users to the product, all this will continue to function as long as demand for such kind of work is going to be on the necessary level. I do not like to talk about far far future, but I expect that signature/bounty campaigns will be trendy for several years more.
So, we are lucky for them that we had already this rank before merit implemented, and it takes a year before you've reached a higher rank.
