Think of block rewards as a way of introducing Bitcoin into circulation without introducing too much that it would be better for people to mine than to use Bitcoin as a currency. We need both for Bitcoin to be valuable. We need people to be sending and receiving Bitcoin from other people because but if the block rewards were too high and offered too much incentive everyone would be mining instead of trading. When we have finally reached the limit of 21 million Bitcoin every one should be circulating Bitcoin around with trades. Transaction fees then allow miners to still earn but it will not be too lucrative for the miners because then people will not use Bitcoin as a currency because the transaction fees would be too high. The way Bitcoin has been designed is to make sure that there is balance and we are not injecting too much Bitcoin into circulation at the same time because this would have the effect that fiat currencies have with printing money off.

Speechless.

Damn, and she's in the same signature campaign as I am. How did Hham manage to pick her of all applicants...

According to his profile, this is a woman. She uses the forum purely as a place to earn money. Having three accounts, and participating in three subscriptions, makes some people write daily gibberish to meet their required quota. Greed is a vice. Grin

Therefore, your bronze poop prize will have to be tripled. Although, having so many violas, I wouldn't be surprised that she has a few more.

Ugh. I thought I might have been on the trail of a purchased account, as I could only see posts made by this member as far back as 2020 (the member registered in 2017), but then I un-ignored a bunch of sections and suddenly could view a lot more posts. This person is going on my ignore list so fast it'll make Satoshi's head spin:

I totally agree big risk, big results. In other words, the greater the capital we use, the greater the risk we must face. But the greater
the profit we will make. Learning from there, I have understood the formula for generating large profits, which is that we must be brave
take risks by using a large trading capital. But that does not mean we have big capital and dare to take risks will make certainly profit.
But we still have to learn the knowledge of trading in order to master trading techniques and strategies in order to read price movements
as well can manage capital well. That way it's easier to make a profit.

I think because libra is a stable coin with a price of $ 1, it cannot be used for trading. Then I include people which is not active
on facebook, then there is no reason for me to use libra coin. In my opinion libra will be very useful for Facebook ads users, they
will be easy to make payments if using libra coin. So libra will be better if used as a digital currency, because the price is stable.

Let’s change that to say 25 merits in 120 days, and I believe the amount of signature spam will drop by at least 30% - 50%.

I could get behind that 100%--but unfortunately I'm not a campaign manager or the owner of one. And as mentioned, the problem is that those slots have to be filled. Even with all the applicants that campaigns and bounties get, a lot of the best posters on the forum are already in campaigns and I'd say most of the applicants are typical shitposters, so there's not a lot to differentiate between them.

.. signature/bounty campaigns are completely banned at some point - which is an option that is on the table.

That will significantly reduce the activity of forum, and ad revenue. I don't know how much forum earns from ads and what sustains it tho.

I’m glad someone agrees that we detected the problem, but also that no one wants to solve it - because no one wants to cut the branch they’re sitting on. Low standards for participation in campaigns that are actually directly related to the earnings of those who run campaigns are the biggest problem - but I believe that this can only be changed in such a way that signature/bounty campaigns are completely banned at some point - which is an option that is on the table.

Exactly my thoughts. I think the CMs can't really do much without those posters because after all, those advertisers want exposure. Shitposting or not, they want their ROI in the most profitable way possible; they don't give a toss on how things are laid out. And CMs like Hhampuz are doing their job well.

And also if the shitposters fail to meet their quota, it's basically free advertising for the week (i.e. they don't get paid + warning).

I once had seen this freelance service in fiverr which made me really curious:

~img snip~

Are they those who shitpost the most around here? I was thinking it seriously to pay him those €9 and have this constructive conservation before he starts working for me.

I had a similar encounter as yours.
I reported these kinds of gigs. I almost forgot to update my reply in [here] due to Fiverr not sending email to those who reported the gig.
The gig was taken down already, though I am not sure when it was taken down.

This was the link of the gig taken down in case anyone is curious. [I will comment on your bitcointalk thread](Fiverr Link)
I would just encourage others to keep reporting these types of gigs. Fiverr didn't respond to my report immediately, but at least the gig was taken down. The site requires an account, before one can report though.

But there was a declined of new bounty campaigns when Bitcoin plummeted to $30000. Recently, when Bitcoin started to sour in price right from $29000 till now, there has been many new bounty campaigns on this forum, even there was one today.

Yeah, I remember that period where bounties were at their lowest point (numbers-wise, I mean), and I'd hoped that they'd soon be extinct. Not to be, I guess. Lately it seems like some of the worst posts being made are ones by members wearing some DeFi or other token-related project in their signature space, which I assume is related to bounties and not bitcoin-paying signature campaigns. Bounty managers have no standards as a general rule, though there might be a few exceptions.

I've asked this before, but I don't think I've gotten an answer: are there more bounties/campaigns going on now than there have been, say, for the last year or two? I'm just wondering because it really seems like there have been a lot more shitposts in the sections I frequent, and the forum had been pretty readable for quite a while up until recently.

Suchmoon really get valid points about this. But I noticed people selected in signature campaigns were carefully selected, I am not implying all of them are that good and have excellent quality posts, but they are still indeed better and good, many of signature (bitcoin) campaign posters always have good posts even if not that quality enough.

Unlike bounty hunters. If the price of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are increasing, you will frequently be seeing new bounty projects, this happened since when Bitcoin increased to all-time-high. But there was a declined of new bounty campaigns when Bitcoin plummeted to $30000. Recently, when Bitcoin started to sour in price right from $29000 till now, there has been many new bounty campaigns on this forum, even there was one today. What I still also noticed is that new people are knowing this forum daily while many of them are shitposters introducing new shitposts (bounty hunters), all they want is to make shitposts for money.

Quote from: BlackHatCoiner on August 20, 2021, 02:14:32 AM

I really wonder how these campaign managers choose to hire their participants. Do they actually read their posts or just look at their post & merit count and decide if they deserve the position?

With what I have noticed, bounty campaign managers most often select users having no merit received record over 120 days. They are always selecting shitposters to just promote their project.

For example, if they saw the posts suchmoon quoted, would they say — “Hell yeah! Bring that guy into Foobee and we'll pay him!” ...? Despite the fact that they pay pennies on bounty campaigns.

Some do (I actually checked foobee spreadsheet and he did remove a few) but even if they do probably asinur is a standard case so if you kick the likes of him you shut down the campaign, and I suspect in some other cases they are told to accept everyone and it's pretty easy to understand why. They have a fixed budget of x tokens, those will be split between the participants so for them it's not like they are paying extra for those shitposts, 10 quality posts or 1000, 1 shitpost or a million, it's the same cost, and they need as much exposure as they can get.

Btw, to complete the collection:

If all (or most) campaign managers were doing their job the way they were supposed to do it, and had high criteria - then they would find it very difficult to fill places in their campaigns. That's why someone invented the "5 merits in 120 days" rule, which is nothing but something that suits shitposters. Let’s change that to say 25 merits in 120 days, and I believe the amount of signature spam will drop by at least 30% - 50%.

Probably a combination of increased bounty activity (we're still in a bull market, sort of), lax moderation, and reporting fatigue.

If you look at the list of campaigns:

And compare to a year ago:

There is an increase in the number of campaigns, but not much. On the other hand, that's just the ones that pay in BTC. Worst shitposters carry shitcoin signatures, like asrinur above. I definitely agree with you that there are more shitposts recently. Probably a combination of increased bounty activity (we're still in a bull market, sort of), lax moderation, and reporting fatigue.

Oh lordie....I recently un-ignored the Speculation section because it seems like there have been very few decent threads in my feed as of late--and I'm sorry I did, because I forgot how shitty Speculation actually is. Obviously Mr. asrinur there was just writing gibberish in accordance with whatever thread he happened to be posting in, regardless of whether it made sense or if he actually meant what he was writing.

The Bitcoin price has successfully touched the $46k level at the moment. if the trend continues to increase, Bitcoin has the opportunity to touch a new resistance level near $51,000.

Quote from: ?? on ??

Given the massive moves we are experiencing in the short term Bitcoin price, things are getting very foamy. I think we are going to have a big price correction in Bitcoin. Because I think BTC could drop to $30,000 to $20,000, which would be a 50% drop.

Quote from: ?? on ??

I think it looks like a bull market will increase BTC around the $40k level. It could also reach territory above $42k. If it does, it could hit $50K in the near future. Bitcoin price will continue to rise in the near future. Investing in the volatile crypto market can be a daunting task that becomes increasingly difficult for novice traders.

For reference the price was between $44k and $47k during the ~3 days so the first post kinda made sense, the second one is a bit schizo, and the third one is complete nonsense. I've seen accounts that lost their marbles after a 6-month break but never seen one going full noodle in 2 days.

Our YouTube channel should definitely have a video of the worse shitposts of the week. @Cyrus @theymos

That might be a discussion best had in the thread dedicated to the upcoming channel, but I'm actually glad you brought it up. Personally I think it'd be amusing if a very short slot in a video dealt with some of the absolute crap that members write, but I'm not sure if "shitpost shaming" would go over well with the video maker(s). For one thing, it'd have to be done tactfully without actually calling these idiots out by name, else the channel would appear malicious. For another, it could make the forum look bad if it even came close to admitting there was a problem with nonsensical posts driven by bounties/signature campaigns.

But that last part--about the incentive for members to write 150 characters worth of shizzle--really should be discussed in one of the Youtube vids. That's my opinion at least.
