Here are my suggestions:

1. Lower the pay rate for Tier 1 so there will be more slots.

2. Increase the follower count needed for each Tier (e.g. 5K followers for Tier 1, 3K for Tier 2, 1.5K for Tier 3) so there will be better people qualified. A regular participant have more than 1.5K.

Anyway, I'm not complaining or anything. I'm happy to be in Tier 3.

It requires some "investigation". Here you go:


Then there's no announcement that says otherwise so they are CFNP.

Instead of asking Avirunes to reconsider you, evaluate your post quality first. Are they good enough for this campaign? The answer is NO because you didn't get accepted. Improve your post quality first and then post here again to see if they are already good enough.

Nothing has changed in your previous post so reconsidering your application will have the same answer which is "No".

That's just because you're not looking at all. In the sticky thread in reddit, you can find what you need. Here they are:
- Working For Bitcoins
- Bitwage
- XBT Freelancer This actually had a signature campaign here and they had a good service.
- CryptoGrind
- Bitlancerr
- Coinality
- BitGigs
- /r/Jobs4Bitcoins
- ReinProject

I have never tried any of them except /r/Jobs4Bitcoins. It is a subreddit and most of the tasks are professional ones. There's none of those data encoding jobs or any other basic tasks. They aren't messing up around here. I suggest that you visit this every day because everyday new tasks are looked for and they are always different from one another.

The sites listed above are all legit because otherwise, they wouldn't be in the sticky thread of /r/Bitcoin. There are other websites to earn bitcoins, just read it there.  Here you go.

People get scammed on the Internet just for uploading their personal ID. Most times when you're going to place an Ad on Facebook, the customers ask for your ID so they can verify that it's actually you on your profile. But some people ask for ID so they can use that same ID to do things on the Internet. It's just recently when this happened to someone and was on the news.

Some websites do require for the owner of the ID to do a selfie holding the ID. This has stepped up the security a little bit but not all website requires this. Plus, there are still people able to bait other people into posting a picture like this. Oh well, not our problem since we don't run any loaning website.

That's what I really doubt. Why? Because steam, Microsoft, and Starbucks are already accepting bitcoins yet here we are. Unless the majority of merchants are already accepting bitcoins and a lot of people are looking for it, merchants, especially the small ones, will still not accept bitcoins. It's not a chain reaction that if your neighboring store is accepting bitcoins, you're inclined to accept it as well.

I think the only way to truly encourage local businesses to accept bitcoin is for customers to go ask for it. One customer asks for bitcoin payment, the store owner doesn't take notice. But if in a day, 10 people are asking for it, then they will be intrigued and start searching about it. He might even look for a guy that can implement it to his store system.

But that's not going to happen today unless we hire 10 different guys to pretend that they are looking for bitcoin payment. Of course they have to know about bitcoin in order to qualify because the store owner might start asking questions.

Closed for new participants, yes.

Where else? On the Internet, of course. There's just so few people in my place that are Internet and computer literate. Most people here make a living from jobs like farming, fishing, etc. From that alone, you can conclude that I live in a province. I think I'm the first one here in my area to ever discover bitcoins. The people that knows bitcoin here wouldn't know it if it wasn't for me. I taught a couple of people, then those people wanted to help too, so the word of mouth went on. I even see other bitcoin users on Facebook from my area that I don't really know personally. The exponential growth is fascinating.

And once the guy has a red trust, do you get paid? Not at all. The only thing that you have when loaning to high-ranked and trusted members is the thought that they will not runaway for that amount of money because their account is far more valuable than that. Yet, we see members here that have run away. It is yet to confirm if it was their motive from the start.

One example is mexxer-2. He used to be relevant here but now he has a red tag. He owes money from Lutpin. Lutpin certainly trusted mexxer because mexxer is a trusted member. Yet, here we are. There's another one here that's trusted but just vanished after defaulting on a loan.

You still have to consider that these people might run away and their negative trust will do nothing good to you, only bad to them. At the end of the day, you still lost money.


This guy obviously had the wrong idea about the topic of the thread. Of course loan isn't risky if you're the guy who's asking for money. It's a lot different when you're the guy giving out loans.

That will only happen if the blockchain is finally upgraded. Luckily for us, there's going to be a judgment day which is the August 1. If we're to continue having the same blockchain, the transaction fee will be a lot more than what it is right now. Along with the increase of bitcoin's price, the transaction fee will be really high in fiat terms.

"Convenience" for merchants isn't something that we have right now and it's because bitcoin transactions are really slow, bitcoin transaction cannot support microtransactions, and bitcoin is subject to volatility. We might live long enough to see the bitcoin transaction becoming better but bitcoin will always be volatile which make most merchants reluctant to accepting bitcoins as payment.

I really wouldn't blame you for not understanding what was the ransomware attack because there's not that much people that you can talk to about it. There are some "tech savvy" guys out there that pretend what's going on and they act like they are all familiar about the attack but don't even use bitcoin or encrypt their files. The ransomware attack has encrypted[1] the files of users (Windows operating system) and you will see a message saying that you have to deposit bitcoins to the given address before they give you the decryption key. It has happened worldwide and was on the local and international news so no wonder why everyone talked about it.

[1] Meaning: You can't use your files unless you decrypt it with the right key. Encrypted files are basically like files that have password that you have to put.

Not really. Even the people that bought bitcoin at a really low price, they still have to wait for years before the price has increased this much. They may be rich by now but they had to discipline themselves to not to sell before even when they could have made a decent amount of money.

Newcomers also don't get instantly rich with bitcoin. We still have to mine, collect, earn, and trade bitcoins in order to earn money. It's basically the same thing as fiat. You do things, you get rewarded for that. The only advantage is that it's a lot easier and the price is always increasing. There are people that are lucky with bitcoins. Those are the people that have skills for services that are always in demand in this place like programming, designing, content creating, etc. If you're competent, then your journey towards getting rich is a lot shorter than others.

I just want to add that "rich" is subjective. A person that's rich in a developing country can have the same amount of money for someone who's just a working class in a first world country.

"Explain the fact that you have to pay more than one dollar for a one dollar transaction."
"Explain the fact that everyone's uncertain about what's going to happen to bitcoin after August 1."
"Explain how mining bitcoin is only profitable to people that are already rich in real life."
"Explain how we have to wait days before out transaction gets confirmed despite putting enough transaction fee."

That's just the very limited questions that you will have if ever you make a thread out there saying that bitcoin has no disadvantage. Everything has a flaw and bitcoin is not an exception.

Saving bitcoin, the growth is only on its value and not the coin itself. 1BTC will remain 1BTC but the price of it might increase over time. It's totally not assured even though there's a good chance of that happening considering what has happened in the past. I do believe that investing your bitcoin somewhere (e.g. trading) is a lot better than plainly holding them.

It is true that the government cannot devalue our bitcoins by demonitizing or by inflating it but there are whales out there that can totally manipulate the market. We're lucky that they aren't showing themselves yet. Big players think of the whole thing as a game so they would love to manipulate the price. Luckily this is only often happening on altcoin markets where the volume is a lot less.

But the virtual world users are also the people that's from the "reality" that you call. We all know dollars because we all know USA. Bitcoin is something that might be a "thing" on the Internet but dollars is still the leading currency here. Just take a look at how many transactions are happening in Paypal alone. That's a lot more than bitcoin. People are obsessed with using their bank account, their debit/credit card, and you use Paypal for that.


I doubt that the ransomware attack has given a lot of impact to the world. If anything, it has increased the fear of people about bitcoin. Once they see another bitcoin user, they will be reminded by the hack. Only a couple of people will try to look deeper about bitcoin after facing some fear.

I think we can simply make a roadmap. At first, you can do signature campaign. Then trading, then mining. Trading requires not much money but the more experience you have and the more money you invest, the better the earnings. Then for you to be able to earn even just by sleeping, mining is what you can do.

Signature campaigns require 0BTC to start. In trading, you should have at least 1BTC to have decent income. Mining, you need 20k$-50k$. In the future, that will even increase because a lot of people are mining now. In my country, there's a shortage (yep, shortage and not just scarcity) of graphics card because of cryptomining. Most people say that it's 3 months to 6 months ROI and the rest will just be maintenance and profit. If I only had that much to invest.. Oh well.

How so? As far as I know, ICOs are meant for the developers to make quick money. Let's face it, the people that invest in ICOs aren't really interested in the project. They are interested in the price of the coin in the future. They look if the coin has a good potential because that way, they'll know that the price will go up. Even ETH developers, they are just here for the money. Without ICO, bitcoin will be fine. It's just recently when these ICOs have started appearing like mushrooms. There's plenty of them right now and there will be even more in the future.

"It looks boring" - I think that's some absurd reason why bitcoin will die. Think of a better argument.

Lucrative businesses can't really be easily identified. Obvious lucrative business are either illegal or totally risky. Selling drugs is lucrative, but no one would want to go to jail. Most times, a business comes booming after a couple of years of running. Some people don't really expect that their seemingly dead end business becomes a lucrative one and that's always happening. Just take for example Youtubers and Instagram models that spent a lot of money on equipment then they only got recognized after years of being in the business. They have lost money first before they ever did  start earning well.

To get the best of it, try to look for what's needed in your place. You will get good earnings from those at the start but the future isn't assured since somebody else might copy your business and take over.

Some claim that the payment in altcoin signature campaigns are actually really good. You can earn up to 1BTC per campaign. The only problem is that the managers there aren't really that active unlike in bitcoin signature campaigns. If you're willing to wait anyway, then go ahead and join altcoin signatures. You have to watch out for how much percentage of the total fund will be allocated for the signature campaign. Sometimes it's really low. I joined some of the twitter campaigns and from what I got, I can say that they pay really well.

The only disadvantage of altcoin signatures is the fact that you don't know if they are actually going to pay or are they going to run away. Remember in the past, ICOs used to run away after accumulating enough money. Altcoin campaigns run mostly for more than a month and then you have to wait for another month before the lazy managers update the spreadsheet. Then a couple more weeks for the distribution.
