I became a bounty hunter after being introduced to bitcointalk by a friend who only showed me how to participate in bounty campaigns. For the bulk of my time here, I worked as a bounty hunter, merely tapping on bounty links from Telegram groups to participate in campaigns; it was all I was taught to do. After a few weeks of boredom, I decided to investigate the forum. That day, I came across a lot of intriguing subjects and posts, and I realized there's a lot to learn here, and the site isn't just about bounties.
I take it back to start a new life in this forum, hoping to get proper guide on where to start from so that I can learn and contribute to the forum too as others.

I wouldn't really say a wrong foot, rather a diferent path, and there's something to take away from that experience. Your starting point can lend much needed perspective to new people because it's a diferent angle that may or may not be the right approach for people.

Someone is reborn, give this man a round of applause.
Only few got that realization after becoming a full time bounty hunter lol.

So yeah, try reading what you need to learn first, google some keywords with "bitcointalk.org" or use the search feature of the forum. You can still do bounties and yet participate discussions/questions here, ofc reading too. Don't forget to read the forum rules too

There is never a wrong timing to getting knowledgable. People work with what they first experienced and got introduced to. Although bounty hunting isn't bad but it comes with lots of distraction and less of knowledge. It's cool you had to explore further to see more the forum could offer other than mere bounty hunt

good for you! I remember reading that we have some members or perhaps a member who used to focus on bounty hunting but did change and started joining discussions in the forum instead of doing bounty campaigns. and I remember correctly that member is now a legendary rank(or maybe a hero member, I am not sure). if that member can do it, I am sure you can do it too.

This happened to me also. I came to the forum in March by accident, and also accidentally found out about the bounty. But my patience was enough for five months. I desperately believed in these scam projects that promised great prospects for investors and also for those who advertised them. Realizing that I was wasting my time, I began to expose these scams.

But indeed, a lot of people came to the forum, as the OP puts it, from the wrong step, and we had to "sober up" for a while.

The OP spent about nine months, which can also be said, he got good experience so that he would no longer return to the bounty advertising classes.

I'm happy for you, OP. You have made the right decision.

Good for you that you realized that there are better ways to spend your time on Bitcointalk. There is greater earning potential outside of bounty campaigns, and the best of all is you surround yourself with very knowledgeable people that you can learn from just be reading what they are writing. Take a look at the Bitcoin technical boards if you want to know more.

If you are looking for a collection of the best threads and discussions started on Bitcointalk, I would recommend taking a look at and bookmarking Beginners & Help Encyclopedia [UPD: +Electrum Board]. You can find everything you could possible need there.

I think the next step for you is learn more and talk less, when you're already know you're step in the wrong way, you need to spend more time to read any thread to gain knowledge, explore the forum and improve your posting quality. How bounties isn't boring when you're just like, share and working like a robot that doesn't interact with the others. Probably you will get constructive criticism when you want to start a discussion, but that's the important part.

Once a man, twice a child!

Now that you've realized you started on a wrong footing with bounties, it's about time you moved on and away from it. You can start by deleting your bounty reports and posts if you've claimed your rewards from them. That will tidy up your post history. I don't think most of the community members like going through profiles that are taken up by bounty reports. For me, I don't. Even when I want to merit a user's other posts and I discover it has a lot of bounty reports and posts it pisses me off. Look at how easily you've received 4 merits for the short OP you've made and that's the highest you've got since you registered here in 2021. It goes to show how the community is ready to reward genuine users. So, buckle up and keep soaring henceforth.

As a visual and auditory learner, I find Andreas Antonopolous youtube channel to be useful for getting your bitcoin education starting from the basic to advance level. You can binge watch his videos if you have some free time to spare Wink

Another great resource you can start reading is Jameson Lopp's website. The articles he made contains a lot of tools and resources that you can use in experimenting and learning the fundamental behind bitcoin. Just make sure to read them on a habitual basis to learn more effectively.

You are in the right section already. B&H is your friend and a good place to hang out and learn more about forum and any interesting idea on bitcoin and blockchain. Being a bounty hunter isnt a crime, but we must uphold the very mission here on forum, to provide discussion and meaningful topics. I am the same initial as yours when I landed here, my purpose is for bounty and Ive changed that, and realized it far more longer than you actually but I glad Ive did, so its not really too late for you, I understand you and hoping yoi could transform than into a contributor here. Good luck.

Glad to hear that you understood there is more than bounties in this forum. Almost everyone that joins the forum for the first time was either introduced by a friend or family for doing bounties. Those who realize that bounties are just a small part of this forum are very less. I also initially started with bounties and at a very late stage realized that there is more to do in the forum.

Yeah, one could even say: There is a lot more to this forum than meets the eye. You just have to keep exploring and reading. Wink

Anyway, you've taken a step in the right direction by exploring the forum more deeply than what your friend showed you. And now it's your turn to show your friend something new.

I played around with Telegram bounties and airdrops for some weeks, and came to finding it tremendously boring, on the verge of being demeaning. It was right at the beginning, when I experimented here and there with ICOs, some airdrops, and a few bounties as mentioned. All pretty much a waste of time, and it didn’t take long for me to move away from all that. Part of the learning curve when landing on a new terrain …

I'm just getting to find out the meaning of bounty and bounty hunters, I didn't know of the existence of such here in this forum. Truthfully we have been drawn to this forum for various reasons, but I think the most important thing and what should be the aim of everyone here should be to learn. Since you have realised that you have started on the wrong foot, it is the first step in making amends, change your objective here and in no time certainly there will be better opportunities for you in the crypto space that you will discover from learning.

Well, nobody said bounty is a crime, the board was added for reason and your friend showed you what you wanted to know at that time but now that you learned the etiquette of the forum, it is not too late to do the needful.
My mentor once said to me that there is no end to learning, it is a continuous process, if you have a question feel free to ask and if you are looking to read and know more about bitcoin, check Learnmeabitcoin.com and Mastering Bitcoin ====>> https://github.com/bitcoinbook/bitcoinbook If you have further questions, ask for direction in Development and Technical discussion and Bitcoin Technical support

bounties activity can provide an initial profit, but we are really far from the past years in which it was possible to earn interesting figures with extreme simplicity. Now basically it's all about spam and visibility ... and a considerable effort in terms of time and effort required.

the forum is above all a "mine" of information, many interesting users with their ideas, and it is easy to find useful sections for your knowledge and a way to maximize your knowledge of this sector. I think that what you can learn here it's more valuable respect. what you earn with bounties.

Joining bounties from new projects doesn't have a good image as many bounty hunters only spam this forum just to meet the required posts needed to get stakes and receive reward after the campaign ends. It's good that you take your time to investigate what the Bitcointalk really is. Bitcointalk forum is not all about bounties but all about sharing, learning and helping other people. Some business owners use the Bitcointalk platform to promote their projects with a reward and that's where the campaign comes.
