Bitcoin Forum

Is it only me, who feels that the ICO project for slots (signature campaign) in 2020 looks a little?
I see more slots for (social media campaigns) compared to (signature campaigns).

I want to participate in the bounty project (Signature Campaign), can someone recommend a good project to follow now?
I will reconsider your reference.
#Thank you

The smaller amount of signature campaigns on the forum nowadays is probably due to the organizations running campaigns analyzing the benefits of both signature and social media campaigns and coming to the conclusion that social media campaigns are more effective, though it's impossible to know for sure and it could just be ICOs and newer projects trying to cut down on costs wherever possible.

I can't point you directly towards one campaign that's the 'best' either, since that's entirely subjective, but the Altcoin Bounties (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=238.0) is your best bet for altcoin-based campaigns. If you're looking for fresh campaigns, look for threads with few posts.

You already have one is this what you are wearing is ended already?
Only few project making this ICO right now because they know what is the result will be .
You can easily find many campaign bounties aktcoin section even for signature there still many choicea is there. Its better not to rely only in other opinion you should be the one who check the project before participating.

i have also observe the point op just raised with most project lunching their campaigns lately, majority don't have signature among as part of their campaign, i use to wonder why the exclusion of signature campaign but from your point of view, i think this could be one of the reason, there maybe others but i guess this is one major reason,
if the signature campaign don't bring the desired result as social media and content, then i guess most project would rather exclude signature from their campaign,
another possibility could be the bounty pool, if the pool is not very big, they will rather spend it on the campaign that can reach wider audience which is social media and content campaign.

Perhaps ICO projects are moving out and testing new business models in promoting their platforms like social media campaigns. Besides there's a lot of altcoin forum in 2019-2020 and maybe they are using it besides this forum.

I'm sure you know where to find good altcoin signature campaigns, you are wearing one already. As for any recommendation, I'm sorry, you know how ICO projects are, totally unpredictable, we don't know if it will be a success or not. And that is the risk of being a bounty hunter.

And I thought I'm the only one noticing, there are a lot of bounty campaign that do not include signature campaign, almost 50% of new bounty campaign do not have a signature bounty campaign so signature campaigner have no choice but to go to ICO that has a slim chance to succeed, if I was not accepted in the Bitvest campaign I'm planning to get this account on vacation because of the lack of campaign.

I think signature campaigns should have strict limits. And not only for the number of participants but also for the time period. Hate when there is no time limits and you have to wear some signature for months...

Your observation is indeed true I notice it also, the signature campaign was drastically reduced in the ICO bounty campaigns nowadays, I don't know what was the reasons behind all of these but I see it as changing of strategy they are thinking that social media and Blogs campaign has more potentials compared to the Signature campaign, I'm not sure about it it's just only my opinion.  

I don't want to say that projects that did not include signature campaign are scams, they just don't want to exposed themselves here for fear of being reported or investigated they want a low profile so they opted for social media campaign, honestly social media will not get there enough marketing signature campaign is still the best marketing in Cryptocurrency.

indeed, I also feel that way, not much like the previous year, and the current project in 2020 I still don't see any good project, it seems like it's still early

Excuse me I think people should put a stop to calling every thing ICO in crypto space anymore, this is 2020 and there is no new ICO project anywhere, we only have IEO and STO left nowadays and no one will recommend any project for you, that will be a bad idea, learn to make decisions yourself

There are quite few of them right now.
Takes time to hunt for good ones.
There isn't that much of ICOs right now since 2019, and the most common things now are IEOs.

Indeed, there are many empty slots in the ICO project for signatures, which indicate that the ICO project will not run well this year, so many people leave it and it is better to look for something other than the ICO project.
If you want to participate in the signature campaign project then I recommend choosing the gift held by BM juler12 (Geoma DAO Bounty Campaign (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5223521.0), it seems that the campaign is good and the Team has already said that now is negotiating with several exchanges to launch IEO.
Try joining there. try your luck.

XX coin's BTC based signature campaign must be the first one since 2019 January for an altcoin/ICO. (I am sure I am 99% accurate there was no single signature campaign for ICOs/altcoins in 2019 with BTC payments).

The reason is obvious, ICO moved to exchanges in the name of IEO and exchanges got power to find investors hence bounties are not needed to them anymore.

Another reason what I have observed is, many campaign managers who are all capable of convincing devs and owners for a signature campaign got negative trust for various reasons which led to less campaigns now a days. If you notice, there are lot of people are offering themselves for managing campaigns but only few consistently getting campaigns to manage. It means those people are capable of conducting devs and convincing them for a budget to run campaigns and others are waiting for the devs to conduct them to offer a campaign to manage ::).

yes, it is true that the ICO project currently looks lonely, especially for the signature campaign slot. there are only a few projects that accept slots for signature campaigns. I personally do not know the exact reason behind it all, but the main factor may be because in 2018-2019 many ICO projects were fraudulent, ICO projects were not profitable for investment, impacted on investor interest and the fact that ICO fraud projects almost killed the entire cryptoqurrency space.

If you haven’t noticed, every year there are fewer and fewer good companies. Signature companies have always been the most profitable, but it all depends on how successful the fate of each individual project will be.
It doesn’t matter how many slots are allocated for the company of signatures, it is important whether the project succeeds in raising funds and entering the market or not.

Unfortunately, I can not advise you because I do not see any good ICO Bounty companies on the market. In addition, with your rank on the forum, you will not be able to earn much even in a good company.

I haven't noticed this, maybe due in part that I have currently no interest whatsoever in what goes on with ICOs, if they no longer or have fewer Signature campaign ICOs is not a bad news for me as I am concerned with the amount of garbage many of their participants "dump" in here, giving moderators heavier tasks to do. They can stick with the social media bounties imo.
I do not see any good one as well, this bounties are well too risky, seeing how the recent ico projects have fared, does anyone need an advice to know they should flee from them.

Whether there is a signature campaign depends on the decisions of the dev team and the bounty manager, each campaign also has its own function. By holding a social media campaign, it could be dev focus on expanding social media networks, it could also be due to funding factors as well. But there are still many campaign signatures that can be followed, it would be more effective to choose a weekly payment and handled by a trusted BM, but at least your rank must be SR with the acquisition of quality merits and posts. Other alternatives for signatures I recommend: Geoma Dao, Hitmex, Hydax. DWYOR.

I may think if you are wrong about that, there were several campaigns who have been running in the past just like credit, tachyon, Vite, Sessia, and many more. Nexo is the first campaign in 2019 who was running bitcoin campaign. If you mean about the first ico in 2020 that runs bitcoin campaign and that must be 99% accurate.

OP, there are also some good campaigns and AFAIK if some campaigns already listed on the market. That's better to do deep analysis and pick those who have already traded on the exchange site as your priority to join in the campaign.

Social media bounties have already flooded with thousands of bots. it's not so effective as those people said. Even some accounts related to the social media bounties keep posting while the campaign has already ended.

There are fewer ICOs nowadays, because the ICO hype is practically dead.

Even developers and project managers know that nobody wants to through their money away through an ICO anymore, since investors have been burned far too many times.

I think the rate of new project development has just slowed to a near standstill, whereas those that are still going are now seeking funding from more traditional routes, such as venture capital and seed rounds.

That said, there will likely be a few outliers every now and then that still manage to pull off an ICO, but I wouldn't bother looking for these.

Signature campaigns for bounties are no longer effective for projects. They attracted so much heat in this community that's why they targeted social media campaigns more. But if you would see projects using sig campaigns to promote, there are less percentage as compare to other mediums of promotion. Maybe they also know the usual sig campaign spams happening here the can reflect negatively on them.

For bounty, I think the signature campaign is the most effective for new projects. Social campaigns are now just bots and fake accounts, so new projects won't be marketable to investors. In my opinion the real reason why the signature campaign is limited is because this campaign requires a high budget to be able to perform.

It is kinda hard to recommend any altcoin signature bounty today because of several factors.

1.  Several bounty campaigns scamming their bounty participants.
2.  Lots of projects ended unsuccessfully paying bounty participants worthless token
3.  Lots of projects are milking the Bounty participants of their identity and sell it to other company
4.  Swapping token rewards to new token requiring KYC so that they can deprived these participants of their rewards, one good example is SWACE.

and it makes me feel bad to see those people whom I recommend the campaign suffers such experience.

And probably the reduced percentage on signature campaign shows that the impact of it to the project is diminishing.

no they dont really need a budget for bounty rewards if they need it its from other payment that they need to pay like hiring people who will manage or thier community manager and even listing.
 they are the one needed to have budget because all of them need to be paid in fiat unlike bounty participants.

I think social media campaigns will be more effective than any other campaigns because we know how people crazy to using social media nowadays. so it will be helpful to reach all over the world within short time. and the social media campaign budget will be high compare to other campaign.

They can have much promotions using social medias and other forms of bounties then pay much lesser instead of giving signature campaigns where the target audience is smaller than those social media where they can attract new investors.
Most of the developers are aiming to attract more people they see the bigger pictures outside this forum.

You're right. Signing a company is much more profitable for those who already have a ready-made business and have a finished product.
In this way, they can attract new people as customers. However, it will be quite difficult to find new investors through the company of signatures on the forum.

On the other hand, you can spend not so much money on a company of signatures by cutting down payments, for example, to $ 30-10 a week, this will be enough for a large number of people to join the company.

Do you want to say that in 2019 there were a lot of good projects? Of course they were, but they were extremely few.
In addition, I do not remember that in January, something really worthwhile was observed in the Bounty market.
Maybe it's worth the wait and something will appear, or perhaps, as previously assumed, the bounty market is starting to fade.
Indeed, in essence, the Bounty is an advertisement, but now no one wants to invest in new projects, which means that no one will pay for this advertisement either.

Maybe, things are different when it comes to the market situation rather than in bounty campaigns. Before, when the market situation was in favor to us, or when the market prices of cryptos are that high, bounty campaigns are really profitable. Many bounty participants have earned huge profit from doing campaigns which is totally unlike at this moment that only few projects are succeeding and the profit is small more often.
Maybe that is because the target population is more suitable in this medium than to just any people in social media. Indeed, more people are in social media but not all people would be representative sample. I mean, not all people in social media are not inclined to crypto projects which wouls make the number of people there, smaller than in this medium where most of the people are into cryptos, making the people of interest more. Think of this: selling boxing gloves to fishermen. Do you think they would patronize the gloves? The answer is obvious and that is the reason why promoting a project is more often made in this forum.
