Cost of Bitcointalk Accounts.

[hilariousandco]

I guess it depends what kind of financial state people are in. Somebody might be in financial trouble & need cash quickly, maybe for an overdue bill or something. I personally wouldn't do it but maybe a legendary member could be desperate for 1.5 bitcoin quickly.

I guess we will never know everbodies finances or personal issues.

I guess thats not a problem but why should he sold his legendary account? It is not worth, you build that rank almost 2 years and then you sold it just for some cash? It doesnt make sense and bt its too cheap for 1.5 btc

If you created a lot of accounts a while back or farmed them with the intention of selling them it could be a viable business, but it probably wouldn't be feasible waiting for Legendary when you could just sell them as Heroes for not much less. I think Legendary accounts will become more available over time though as people rank up on their accounts but the 'prestige' of having a Legendary account isn't really worth that much in my opinion.

well i was referring to me to be honest, not to others, to me it look useless to buy account if they are not used for earning

You said they were worthless, but whether you used them for scamming or using them for other business activities is still earning. There are likely other uses for accounts too other than those already mentioned.

yeah ok, but notice how i was only mentioning legitimate uses(only one actully which is sig campaign) of those accounts, and i pulled out "scamming" on purpose, because i not see it as a good way to use your account

but let us not lose ourselves on some semantic no-sense

Whether their use is legitimate or illegitimate or you think it is good or bad is irrelevant as it's still a use but I gave a couple of other examples of legit uses also, but there's no semantic 'no-sense' here. You're just ignoring everything that doesn't suit your opinion.

How do you rank-up organically?

Is it by posting/replying or time since registered?

Both. You can get a max of 14 activity points every two week period you have posted in. Next period starts on tuesday and you can get another 14 points then.

and bought a member account for 0.03 bitcoin . There's many traders here and also it a legal
trade .

Those prices may be the case for member accounts that have already reached full potential, but even newbie account can go quite high if they have
big potential activity. An another boost in price comes when the account is created early on, like in 2011 or so.. so there's a lot of variables determining the final price.
Seeing how forum is getting saturated with ton of new accounts from account farmers, i have a strong feeling that accounts with older registration date are going to be new tulips, if and when bitcoin starts trending again.

Looking to buy hero member at lower price.

Looking to buy hero member at lower price.

Ask or make a thread over in digital goods, but what is your asking price? I don't think people sell Hero accounts for any small amounts. Not really worth it otherwise. Buying a Senior or lower rank and building it up may be a better idea.

[tyz]

What does lower price mean for you? I watched the last two hero member account auctions and the price usually started between 0.25 - 0.4 BTC and ended over 0.5 BTC each time. Thus, you need to invest a little bit to get one.

why not just be who you are vs. trying to buy credability ??  some things cannot be bought

People don't really buy accounts for credibility. They usually buy them so they can earn more on signature campaigns.

[hasmukhh]

it solely depends on the person selling it. some people ask for more money and some ask less. there are some people who give accounts for rent and in return they ask for money periodically.
you can ask a pool member for accounts as he have a large circle of friends who might be interested in selling accounts at less rate.

These prices seem a little off from what I gather from recent threads of people trying to sell their accounts. Seniors seem to be struggling to get 0.3 and heroes seem to be going for around 0.5. I'm sure if you've got a quality account with good posts and history you can get a little more though.

[LFC_Bitcoin]

0.5 bitcoin at the current price is nowhere near good enough for a hero member account.
The man hours & time put into becoming a hero member should be worth at least 1 bitcoin imo.
It's taken me 8 months to become a senior member so presumably it takes 16 months to become a hero member, 0.5 bitcoin is nowhere near enough.

It depends on the demand. The truth is, most people just want to join a high paying signature campaign or just to look good. You can have several accounts and hero members can be farmed fairly easily. Most hero members has spammy posts thus the price would be lower. There are little difference in signature campaign's pay for hero member and sr member so I presume most would purchase Sr members.

I agree with you that they should be worth much more but they're only worth what people are willing to pay for them and if people are willing to sell them cheap then it just pushes the price down of them all.

Hero member accounts can't really be farmed easy. They take a year and half to achieve and that's if they don't get banned. There's no way it would be worth farming a hero account from today to only make half a bitcoin. They might be worth much less or even worthless in a year and half time especially if signature campaigns were banned.

I think it's the other way round. Most Heroes seem to have very good posts, it's senior and lower that have poor posts. Heroes take a long time to achieve and even at 1 bitcoin you can still easily make your money back after two months maybe less if you're a prolific poster. I think the quality of posts should be taken into consideration when valuing an account, especially when accounts with shitposts may have previous bans or be denied by signature campaigns.
