Thread saya LOCK. Saya kira tidak ada penambahan lagi untuk faktor-faktor di atas. Karena sebagian besar usul sudah termasuk ke dalam 9 faktor tersebut. Terima Kasih atas partisipasi dan antusias dari semuanya.. 

Yeah, I know it very well, I ever experienced it. Joining a reliable bounty with many participants in higher ranks result a very little amount, except if I have a rank like yours (Hero). You are right, many experienced participants means it is a trusted bounty, but I don't think we just determine the success of an ICO only from that points, right? A little experienced participants doesn't mean it is not trusted ICO and won't be successful at the end. I saw some ICOs can be successful although the participants in its signature bounty are not many senior, hero, and legendary ranks.     

Your rank is the same with my rank, Junior rank will be hard to get a good amount through signature bounty. But you can maximize the chance with some ways. In this case, to get a suitable signature bounty that fit for you, you should do many research on bounty section. Choose the most potential signature bounty there. Below is my own ways:
 
1. Don't choose a signature bounty that has followed by many senior, hero, and legendary ranks.
2. Don't chose a signature bounty that almost ends. It is just waste your time to join.
3. Don't choose a signature bounty with too long bounty period.
4. Choose a signature bounty with the differences of the stake gaps are not too far.

Other strategies to choose a signature bounty, you can find here: https://angeloncrypto.com/ico-signature-bounty-campaigns-c7a8ee7c5236

It is not a wise decision. We have a problem with the bounty managers, not with the bounties. I think the best option is to limit the merit activities on bounty managers.

I think too many new ICO projects with similar ideas in the same sector. This makes the competition among them too tight, and triggers to the failure of the some weak ICOs. I don't really understand why they create the projects with almost having the same ideas and concept. They should know about the risks and less potential to develop. 

I don't expect too much for the raise of bitcoin in the end of this year. The price movement seems very slow, instead it sometimes drops. Bitcoin rate is always around $6,000. Based on this fact, the possibility to increase up to $10,000 is rather hard. I predict it just can reach up to $7,500.

Currently, I just find new bounties on Bounties (Altcoins) and observe some signatures from other members. I don't believe on ICO listing websites anymore since I experienced many scam ICOs there. I do my own research before deciding to follow a bounty campaign. That's my way to get a new bounty now.    

I see you have just got it. Yeah, to post pictures or gifs, you need to be Junior. By the way, I really like your post, you created a useful thing. I will mark your post and note it to be an important source for ICO listing database. Thanks man..    

 

Saya juga bingung itu komentar arahnya ke siapa. Bahasanya juga campur-campur tanpa ada tanda kutipan kalo itu diambil dari sumber tertentu. Mungkin bisa direvisi dulu oleh komentatornya. Kalo tidak, saya anggap spam, karena tidak jelas maksudnya. 

Kalo saya malah mengapresiasi langkah agan yang peduli dengan sesama dan mau memberi merit untuk thread yang bagus. Karena saya pikir tidak banyak yang mau berkontribusi untuk membagi Merit. Mungkin ada yang takut atau ragu untuk memberi merit.

Ngomong-ngomong, mungkin bisa bagi ke saya juga gan meritnya klo thread saya dinilai ada manfaatnya. [kidding gan]  


Berspekulasi itu bahaya gan, apalagi tanpa bukti. Jika salah, itu malah menjelekkan citra orang, lebih baik agan analisa dulu dengan teliti siapa orang yang memberi merit itu dengan benar. Jika reputasinya baik, maka saya rasa sangat minim kemungkinannya berbuat curang. Apalagi sudah rank kelas atas.


Mungkin sebaiknya ditambahkan keterangan lagi gan.

Actually, I have seen many times the same question like this one.
1. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2451506.0
2. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1959552.0
However, to answer the question is always interesting because I think many people want to know most recommended altcoins recently. Personally, I choose potential altcoins to buy based on coinmarketcap. I usually invest in top 15 coins there. And for now, I think the best altcoins to buy are XLM, EOS, XRP, DOGE, and ADA. The prices are very affordable and potentially to increase significantly. For the example, we remembered the raise of XRP price more than 50% last month.   

Yeah, the number of altcoins always increases day to day. Unfortunately, most of them are worthless and have no prices once listed on exchanges. Actually, I don't really understand about the decline cycle also influenced by these altcoins. But, certainly more new altcoins makes the competition among them too tight yet many altcoins have the same concept, ideas, and in the same sector. It triggers for worthless coins or tokens on crypto market recently.    

Scammers are everywhere, although you provide other ways to promote a project (without ICO), they will be there. For me, the point is you should be smarter and more selective to choose ICO. Let ICOs run normally, but investors and bounty hunters or another part related to ICO must know a real ICO or the fake one. Why don't we think about this: (1.) Provide more strict regulation in ICO registry (2.) The team members of ICO needs to apply the process with KYC. Note: If it is possible to be implemented, at least it can minimize the fake people.    

I have guessed it, I don't think Vitalik Buterin will leave Ethereum project very soon. There are many plans to improve Ethereum, and it will be unfortunate if a person like Vitalik decide to leave Ethereum. The project without the leader will be unstable, it can be very bad for Ethereum if it happens. Now, It is clearly answered that it is only a rumor.    

Saya senang mendengar kabar kalo PPBBI bekerjasama dengan Jepang untuk menambah wawasan dan pengetahuan terkait crypto dan bitcoin, khususnya tentang bagaimana cara pengelolaannya. Jika kerjasama ini berjalan lancar dan sukses, maka saya yakin ini akan mendapat tanggapan positif dari pemerintah kita. Apalagi ada usulan untuk penggunaan bitcoin sebagai alat pembayaran ekspor-impor: https://www.merdeka.com/uang/bitcoin-diusulkan-jadi-alat-pembayaran-ekspor-impor-atasi-pelemahan-rupiah.html. Semoga kedua informasi ini menjadi angin segar untuk keberlangsungan bitcoin dan crypto di Indonesia.

I think it doesn't fix the problem and it is not the best way in solving a problem. Let's think another way that may break the problem but allows the system to run normally. I see no strict regulation on the process of a project registration on this forum. I mean every project that wants to make its ANN or Bounty must go through several identification stages, like KYC process. I think it can be a good way to minimize scam projects.

Believe me, I have did all the suggestions above but it won't guarantee you. Bounty managers can't guarantee 100% since most of them only works as the third parties. They don't understand about the project deeply, they focus in working the bounty program. For me, investigate the ICO through whitepaper is not really effective, the most important thing that you should know well is about the team of the projects. Google the more information about them, check via linkedin, and more trusted sources.  

Yes, why not. Cryptocurrency has been used by many people and the charity through this method seems quite familiar recently. I think it will be good ideas to utilize blockchain technology for charity but you must ensure people if your project is trust-able and decent intermediary to do good deeds. I support your ideas..     

He is very lucky to get 1 merit from someone like you. I appreciate your bravery. To be honest, I also have tried many ways to get merit and I can say to you "It is not easy but not impossible". Although people easily say that "you just need to improve your post quality and give something useful for people", but especially for newbies it is hard to make it happen. I am speaking here is not for dropping the mental of newbies, but I want to say that let's give respect to newbies. It is important to support them. I know what newbies feel because I ever experienced it.  

Advise: I think this topic will be better to discuss in Meta: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=24.0. We discuss about Merit, and it is related to the regulation of our forum.

Of course Ethereum will continue to grow since the platform has many team members and they are professional people with lots of experience. I am sure Vitalik has planned for everything happening at future including if he dies. Maybe the issues of the death can effect to the price for a moment, but it will be back to the normal rates soon.
