- TWITTER BOUNTY
- FACEBOOK BOUNTY
- SLACK BOUNTY
- SIGNATURE BOUNTY

I CLAIM ALL EUROPE LANGUAGE TRANSLATION, I DO IT GOODER.

PLUS, SEND ME YOU WHITEPAPER, I READ, SPELLCHECK AND GOOGLE TRANSLATE INTO ENGLISH, YOU PAY BOUNTY.

LET ME KNOW WHEN YOU MAKE COIN!!

THAKS!!!

[Spoetnik]

I'd get a fucking job.

And no there is no such thing as a job in Crypto either.

..McDonalds is hiring and you'd make more working there than you would in in the shitcoin scene.

[Momimaus]

They are hiring. If you are really good maybe you have a chance.

Any of these three can make you money but the crypto currecny is over flooded and there are big need needs for bitcoin and altcoin marketplace,in my opinion setting up marketplace for Bitcoin and altcoin is the best option because some of these altcoins do not have usage,if you can set up an ebay or amazon like site which utilize crypto currency would be great.

Become a part of a team that already exists and pays regularly. Creating yet another altcoin that doesn't fill a hole that's already been filled by a coin seems pointless, especially if you want to make money with it.

The marketplace thing may be interesting, provided you'd be able to pull it off, not only technically, but also marketing-wise. I think the marketing side is tricky; many overdo it and have no tech, others do it too little and hope that superior tech itself somehow gets noticed at some point.

Shameless plug: XEL could do with some extra input and if Lannister decides to show up again, there may be some decent bounties to collect.

These three projects need experience and good marketing plan, because you will find many competitors, you also need a team of workers, because there are many sides of any project, not only the developing side, you need marketing and community manager experts.

You can make money by all the three ideas you have stated. But you have to make it stand out from the crowd. The truth is there is enough of altcoins and crypto exchanges. If you have a plan to make a better one with cool features then develop it else go work with an existing project or get a real job!

Since this topic is created within the Altcoin Discussion forum, I think I will five you an answer based on Altcoin.

What you have suggested is some good idea to make some profit from the crypto industry (specifically Altcoin). Another business you may consider if you are a really talented developer is to help already established Altcoin to grow. Don't join new Altcoin because the future is a bit hazy. Join a established Altcoin that have a somewhat large user base and start developing whatever things you want for the Altcoin.

It can range from gambling platform to faucet site to micropayment service. Or even a web wallet or maybe a user-friendly blockchain.

Starting an Altcoin exchange or develop a new currency is just too much work for a person - unless you can find a few partners. Creating a crypto marketplace is a good idea but ... how many people will really use Altcoin (not Bitcoin) to purchase things online? Most people use Altcoin as a form of investment or gambling currency only.

I would not enter crypto development for the sole purpose of making money. However if i were to launch a coin i would compete fairly to mine coins at the early stages and hope they have value down the line.

Developer needs lots of money before they can established a good bitcoin or altcoin exchange, so on bitcoin or altcoin marketplace. It's not as easy as you think. You need a team and staff here. You will have to pay for some things associated in that kind of business or investment. Also you just state that you need an extra money for a sole purpose, so if ever you develop a crypto it will just make your coins a shit one since you are focus on getting the money and not on development.

If you are earnings decenlty in your job just continue it. If you really need some extra money then find a part time in a real world. It's way better as above ideas you mentioned needs more time to be matured and you didn't even sure if it will become success.

I'd say move away from thinking about crypto, sadly crypto is not set up in such a way to take advantage of talent unless you are very lucky.

I'll prefer altcoin exchange,there are to many coins in the market only few altcoin exchanges,but I want it to be as popular as poloniex or bittrexx,and altcoin exchange life span is longer than altcoins

Would like to work for KOMODO? I read they are looking for more C developers. Check komodo in the altcoin announcement section for more info.

This is the best choice so far and i would do the same thing too since its good to have a day stable job and at the same time make some sidelines to maximize your salary and could able to save more.If you dont like to work offline then there would be freelance jobs here on the internet actually you could able to make decent amounts but in temporary basis depending on which aspect you are working.

How it used to be done years ago before it got flooded with self entitled brats.

I think you better find another way to earn money, we have a lot of alt coin exchanger and a lot of unused alt coin in this world, so if you created any of those things you need a lot of time to advertise so people trust your coin or your site, if you are a got good skill then you you better find a stable job or look for side job, alt coin job is not as good as you think

[HCLivess]

I would go and die
Go to upwork.com if you're worthless

[Pursuer]

if I were a developer and I was good at it, that meant I was a programmer and that meant for money I would have left my parents basement to get a real job in the real world to make real money and stop thinking about making money by creating a new altcoin or anything altcoin related.

and then if I were still interested in "developing" something I would have made an altcoin project for free not for money.
