Are there any additional sig campaign?  Because some are not accepting newbies and Jr members..  Thank you.

Nope, those are all the campaigns that pay in bitcoin. The rest of the campaigns that can be found in this forum are paying in altcoin tokens.

A small mistake on your latest update @Fatanut, you put the link of Jibrel campaign thread for the Graft campaign. Here is the link for the GRAFT sign campaign just in case you miss it on your Notes https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2443267.0


Thanks!

Is this signature campaign still open?

Yes but the manager is only accepting once per week, at the start of the new week.

Thanks for this list!  It helped me see that while I don't qualify for any yet,  I will soon!  Smiley

Until that date you might wear the Karma-Signature.
They offer it for Newbies, too.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2273926.0

They said that they would be paying after the end of ICO, but according to their website the ICO already happened. I am not quite getting that. Can someone explain and maybe tell me what timelines are we speaking here?

Thanks

Maybe you are talking about "pre-ICO" that has already happened. Regardless, you should ask on their thread, not here.
344  Economy / Economics / Re: good effect and bad effects of robots in replacing human Jobs on: November 27, 2017, 02:13:53 PM
Have you ever wondered what was the "go-to" job of the poor people in poor countries? Yep, it's labor. A lot of people are factory workers. A lot of people are construction workers. Clearly, huge companies can afford to have their system automated. It's clear that international companies have the capacity to buy robots and have the whole process faster and easier, probably even save some money. But you are not the only person in this world. Once you're at the top, you might as well be a good person and offer jobs to the poor people. There's AI and stuff going on nowadays and simple tasks like the ones that are done in factories can obviously be done by a robot. What they did was they made some of the parts of the process (in manufacturing) automated with some robot and then some are still done by humans. It's like they gave the robot the hard tasks for humans.

Just imagine if these huge companies have made the whole thing automated. All of these people will be left with no jobs and that will increase the unemployed count of that country. Thus, statistically the economy would down since the unemployment rate has increased. Most jobs can be done by robots and those jobs are the ones that pays really low. Become a specialist of something and you're not only sure that your job isn't going to be done by robots at some point but also you're also sure that it has a much better pay rate.
345  Economy / Economics / Re: Can Bitcoin End World Poverty? on: November 27, 2017, 01:19:10 PM
well bitcoin can actually can end the world poverty.but the main point here is the willingness of the people to end the poverty if they save their money i mean some money that are excess in their wages they can actually save the world in poverty.

True. There can exist an easy way out of poverty but not everyone will be trying to reach that. Even if most people will be capable of doing it, not everyone is going to do it just because some people actually (low key) like the poor life. Some people love drama. Some people love getting pitied. "Look at me, I'm so poor.", "I'm poor, I can't do that.", "It's not like a have a choice!" and all that things that they say to feel less sorry about the things that they have done. Some people are also afraid of change. They are afraid they can't handle the new things that will come when they get out of poverty. Remember that there's a belief that rich people have more problems than poor people. I mean, I would rather handle problems that while being so chill in my very own office than to have problems in some shitty neighborhood. Regardless of your standing in life, you will have problems anyway.

It's still up to the person if he actually wants to get out of poverty. Bitcoin is not some magic thing that just in one swoosh and everyone's rich. That certain individual still has to take actions in order to get some money. And he will only do that if he actually wants to get out of poverty. Some say that they do want to do this and that but never actually do it because they don't want it badly enough.
346  Economy / Services / Re: Nexchange.io Signature Campaign (FULL) on: November 27, 2017, 12:22:03 PM
at least indicate if this campaign is active,,thanks

The manager of this campaign probably goes to this forum every once a month just to send an announcement that the payment was sent and then goes back to being offline again.

I spent over ten minutes reading the last 5 pages of this thread. To assist in my research paper on modern ICO's please tell me:
Did they pay anyone yet?

That's already moved. Check the last page of the thread and see my update there.

Table will be updated tomorrow. And yes, campaigns that require to reach x amount of money in order to pay out in bitcoin and otherwise will pay with their altcoin isn't going to be added in the table. I will look into it.

Edit: Had a look of the campaign's terms. Yep, that will not be added.
349  Other / Off-topic / Re: What are your goals in 2018? on: November 24, 2017, 02:47:30 PM
This is a very fresh topic. Tons of topics here are all just about bitcoin and its aspects. This question is something more personal. My goals for 2018 is to finally have a separate place for myself and I want to make sure that that place is like a safe haven to me. I want it to be as relaxing as possible. I want it to be the kind of place where I can be the most productive I am and I'm sure I can achieve that. Money has always been the problem to put this goal in reality but I do have some of that now. Another goal is to finish my studies. I might not really use that degree since I will be working on the Internet and they don't ask for diploma here, only skills. School is really putting a limit to what I can do in my computer because it's taking up a lot of my time. You wake up, get ready for school, and get home at early evening tired as hell. You basically lack the time for yourself, let alone making yourself and your skills grow. I want to be more focused to the things that I'm working on in 2018 and that's going to happen only once I'm done with school.
350  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why is bitcoin the most popular cryptocurrency? on: November 24, 2017, 02:22:16 PM
Why it is popular among all crypto currencies? First as of this moment it is due to unexpected price now which is $8000 which we never expect, so people put too much on the eye and it is almost publish in some known articles, then it is one of the oldest coin now woth so much investors.

Or is it the other way around? People are putting attention to bitcoin (since it's the most popular cryptocurrency) and so it has a growing price. Bitcoin has the most user base than any other cryptocurrencies. It's really hard to say that bitcoin is the "best" cryptocurrency because feature-wise, it is surely not. All altcoin out there have their very own features that make them unique and better than other altcoins in some way. Altcoins even have a smaller transaction fee and a much better transaction time. There are times when the price of bitcoin is moving and everyone is trying to cash out.

Bitcoin is the most popular cryptocurrency because it's the base currency in the crypto world. You base the price of altcoin in the price of bitcoin. And sometimes even when the price of that certain altcoin in terms of bitcoin is down, and bitcoin is up, that altcoin's price didn't really move in terms of fiat. Basically bitcoin is affecting the price of all the coins. Of course there are coins that can be traded directly to fiat but converting to bitcoin first is still the dominant way of exchanging your altcoin to fiat.
351  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is bitcoin transaction fees fair? on: November 23, 2017, 01:54:35 PM
i think it is fair fee.when price increase,fee is also increase simultaneously and vice versa.in my opinion it is fair fee and i like the process from my heart.
The transaction increases does not mean the value of Bitcoin increased made its transaction fees also increase the value. You do not know we always need to saving our Bitcoin for future while the Bitcoin miner always raise the transaction fees when the price of Bitcoin increases fastly or create new all time high price.

I don't think that is right, when bitcoin value increase transaction fees are also increases? Grin
Does it mean that they are having a hard time when btc price increases or they are doing it for their own benefits and take advantage of the situation that bitcoin user cannot react and do some actions because transaction fees are common and natural flow when you are doing some transaction.

Fees are commonly paid in every transaction but the higher transaction fees is not fair.

I am with you it is not fair. When bitcoin is rising up the fees are mostly also rising up. This will make a hard time for low investors because sometimes they want to spend it but they can't.

I know a friend who was earning from faucets he couldn't spend anything because the fees were so high.

It's not like the miners are controlling the transaction fee. When the price of bitcoin is increasing, people are rushing to cash out their bitcoins or exchange their altcoins to bitcoins and then withdraw it. A lot of movements are going on, a lot of transactions are happening, thus, the transaction fee is increasing. Y'all have to understand that that is how the transaction fees are computed. A lot of people are transacting so a lot of people are bidding higher and higher to get their transaction be confirmed first than others (or simply, have a higher priority than others).

Oh, about that friend of yours, the miners don't care about him. They don't care if he has stayed up all night just so he can earn that money from that faucet. They are not going to make an exception to your friend just because he made that money from such hard work. People here are smart enough to not waste their time on faucets, thus, people have more money than your friend. It might seem really high for him because he's in the lower class (in terms of the amount of bitcoin earnings) but it's "alright" for most bitcoin users.
352  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: when you try to explain people about cryptocurrency do they understand? on: November 23, 2017, 01:04:36 PM
Honestly, I don't think they don't. There are some that understand but those people are the type of people that already have a knowledge about the basics of economy. If it's just going to be some guy out there without any prior knowledge, it's kind of hard to sense if they are getting it especially when they don't express it. Remember that most people wouldn't want other people to think that they are dumb, thus, act as if they get what you're saying even if they hardly do.

I don't really care if they understood it or not. I'm just going to do my thing and let them research by themselves. But I still try my best to actually put the explanation in layman's terms since it's also a skill to be able to make people understand what you're trying to say.
353  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BTC Mining vs Buying on: November 23, 2017, 12:44:17 PM
I think it is better to buy btc because it is a good investment since the price of btc is constantly getting high while in mining, you have to invest  for the equipment I think its expensive and it will take a lot of your time too. Buying is the more practical option I think.

It depends. If you do have a decent amount of money to invest, like around $10k-50k dollars, it's a lot better to just mine bitcoin. You will get enough mining power to make some actual money from it unlike when you only have less than $10K to invest. It will also depend in your electric expenses. Some have really cheap electricity cost while some have really expensive. In the long run, mining will be better because there will come a point where you'd get the money you spent on the equipment back and all the bitcoin generated by your mining rig will nothing but profit. The only capital that you will be needing is for the maintenance of the equipment as well as to for the electricity bill but both of those will be generated by your mining rig.

Some people feel like mining bitcoin is already too late because a lot of people are already mining it. Well, you can also say that you're already too late to buy bitcoin because a lot of people have already bought bitcoins but you don't see that same logic agreeing with your argument right.

This is a very interesting thread, worth bookmarking. However, the options listed are not so interesting. And MatrixCoin is listed as available but it is already not accepting new members.

Well, those are all the options you have at the moment.
355  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Should I Be Scared Of Hackers If I Have Lot of BTC. on: November 22, 2017, 01:48:03 PM
you should be very afraid.

And being afraid will help you accomplish what? Nothing at all. Instead of being afraid,  you should start doing your research. It's good that OP did.

To OP:
I know that you've been hearing a lot of things about people having their wallets hacked. But it's all because of their own negligence. It's possible that their computer was already hacked even before they have generated their wallet. It's possible that someone (in his home) has access to his computer and is also a bitcoin user and they got the bitcoins. Remember, in your own house is most likely where you'd find the thief (in life in general, not just in bitcoins).

If you are not hacked by now, then probably you are not hacked at all and you're just overthinking things. Because if you were the hacker, you wouldn't wait for a little long when you hacked a bitcoin address because the person might sell out some of his coins. You're not going to wait for that person to have more bitcoins, you just hack it right away.

If you got hacked, you can't do anything. The only indication that you got hacked is when your bitcoins are already gone, right? You and I know that bitcoin's transactions are not reversible and that doesn't change even when you have a lot of bitcoins.
356  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Who can destroy Bitcoin ? on: November 22, 2017, 12:26:19 PM
Bitcoin's power is built by the amount of hype it's receiving from its users. Without us, bitcoin will be nothing. People are still the one in control of bitcoin and bitcoin in itself doesn't have a power. If no one is using bitcoin, then bitcoin is dead. I think that the only one who can destroy bitcoin is the bitcoin users themselves. Unless the developers had a patch which destroyed bitcoin or there's an exploit sitting there for a while and people have found it, then the only way for bitcoin to be destroyed is through the users' actions.

There are some people here saying that the government can destroy bitcoin. Well if they actually do, then they should have destroyed it by now and let the whole thing be forgotten in history. Prevention is better than cure, right? It's better to prevent this whole thing from going mainstream than to destroy it by the time when people have already made tons of cryptocurrencies which is similar to bitcoins. Honestly, no single entity has a power to control bitcoin. The action has to be made by the majority of bitcoin's user for it to take effect.
357  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why are so many people against bitcoin? on: November 20, 2017, 08:26:55 PM
"People throw rocks to things that shine." as Taylor Swift put it in one of her songs. It's not that so many people are against bitcoin. It's that so many people are maleducated about bitcoin. There are articles out that in order to get attention, they are going to, like, "affirm" that bitcoin is indeed a scam and is being used in the dark web by criminals. They don't even have links or anything. It's a mere gossip tbh. There are people or even institutions that are well-aware they are going to go down once bitcoin goes mainstream. First, Paypal. Second, the banks. Third, the government. Adding up the people involved in those institutions and their power, just think how much impact they can do just so they can prolong bitcoin's growth.

Some people always want to say negative things about something because it makes them look like they actually know about the stuff. So if bitcoin ever gets some light into the conversation, one guy always come up and talks shit about it just because he wants to look cool. People are generally just doubtful of the things on the Internet especially now that a lot of people are getting scammed by those MLM and rev share companies.
358  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What is BTC for you? on: November 20, 2017, 07:48:57 PM
Have you heard of old people's story about things that they kinda went through or worked for their whole lives? Like someone lived as a plumber ever since, or your Aunt has always been a good singer since she was a kid. I kind of see myself as someone who worked on the Internet to earn bitcoins as a little kid and he kinda just devoted his life doing that same thing. The only difference, though, mine is paying well right at the start as opposed to most occupations. Bitcoin is just a currency, honestly. But it's a whole different thing once you're in. You can't normally trade currencies to other currencies. You can't normally find a lot of people sharing the same interest with you. It's the community and the things that you can do with bitcoins that's fascinating. I remember thinking at one point that if this whole bitcoin thing keeps going, I might spend the rest of my life trying to earn it lol. Because it's good money, you work from home, and if that doesn't end to be like that, I have no reason to turn my back.
359  Economy / Economics / Re: Tell me a secret: any way to earn 0.1 BTC per week? on: November 20, 2017, 06:58:34 PM
Earning bitcoin with legendary with positive trust is easy. Joining signature campaigns that pays with bitcoins is the best choice for you. While doing some signature campaigns, you could also be a campaign manager in some altcoin bounty campaigns. By doing these two can make you earn more than 0.1 bitcoin per week.
There is no way that we can deny this fact that joining this signature campaign will help you in having a good amount of money. The fact is earning of 0.1 BTC per week is not that much easy thing to do as most of the people think of it. You really need to work hard if you want to earn it by joining this signature campaign. You have to get higher ranks, only then you’ll be able to get what all you actually want.

Nah I don't really think that joining signature campaigns will get you to this much money. I can make 0.03BTC at most and I'm almost Legendary member. Hero and Legendary member usually don't have much difference in terms of pay rate though. Let me tell you a secret, to earn 0.1BTC per week or even more, you have to be a "someone". Someone like yahoo, he's getting a lot of offers from different companies and different places of the world. You have to be a badass. In trading, you can't earn that much money unless you're a risk taker and you know exactly what you are doing. Not only you know exactly how trading works but you also know exactly how to make money from it.

Honestly with the prices of goods and services these days, I don't even think first world country employees get to save that much money. Most people are still living from paycheck to paycheck. In order to stand out and get out of that situation, you have to do things that people aren't willing to do. Like right now, people are busy doing signature campaigns, but is it going to be lucrative for a long time. Then maybe you should start learning how to do programming. Not only because you can make money from it when you get clients from the Internet but also because programming is a useful tool. Who knows? Adding up your earnings from signature campaign and programming side job might get you to 0.1BTC per week or even more.
360  Economy / Economics / Re: What will happen if the government know bitcoin in your country? on: November 20, 2017, 06:27:35 PM
If your government doesn't know about bitcoin, then you are pretty much fucked. Why? Because do they even have an Internet connection? Bitcoin is always mentioned at webpages and even on social media sites whenever it gets a good rise in price. Like today, we reached 8K$ so it's only normal to see a lot of news sites talking about it. There's no other reason as to why your government is not going to know about bitcoin unless they don't have an Internet connection. Considering the fact that they have their own people that are reading information and keeping up with the news and trends, it's really impossible for them to not know about bitcoin.

Bitcoin is known by my government. If you've got a local online wallet that allows you to buy and sell bitcoins, then your government probably already knows about bitcoin because the company have to submit a report for their business. In my country, 6% of your cash out amount goes to the tax. It's really funny how we all talk about bitcoin not having any tax or fees but there's actually a little offset in the exchange amount in the online wallet that we are using to cash out our bitcoins. Even if we don't declare our bitcoin cash outs, you already have paid tax. It's still a lot better than the famous 33% (some even 50%) income tax.
