@QuestionAuthority i just stumbled upon your thread here, giving away smerits for full members and above, who are interested in bitcoin. i really have to say, that you made my day. why? because, since the huge popularity of crypto last year, i have the feeling that everyone is getting greedier and greedier. Thus, your thread and offer are really refreshing, and lets me believe that generousity on bct is not dead yet. keep it up! you are the real mvp  Thank you for the kind words. There have been many nice exclusively altcoin people, like yourself, that come to this thread to show support even knowing that I can’t help them. Best of luck to you. |

Hello everyone! Since my thread is located in the services section and my only purpose is to help co-members and contribute something for the betterness of this Bitcoin community I will try my luck if this post really deserves a merit from you guys. Thank you in advance.  Here is the link kindly check: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2727673.0Oh my god, that’s very green. I feel like I just flew to the emerald city on the back of a flying monkey. LOL I’m not sure if that benefits anyone or not. I’m sure it benefits advertisers and sig campaign hunters but that’s not really the reason I’m doing this thread. I don’t think I can help you with that but it is pretty though. |

Thanks a lot for this QA. The fact that I am getting educated with your thread alone is even good enough for me. Gone are those days when one can easily find interesting topics to contribute and also gain some knowledge on this forum, but it seems we are getting back to that phase gradually with the merit system. Please let me know if you have any question for me and if I deserve your merit or not.
Cheers!
I have to say, I’m on the fence about you. You participate in bounty threads, twitter campaigns and altcoins but appreciate bitcoins strength and resilience. You obviously support bitcoin. You profit from being here but that’s not the only reason you’re here. You’re not just posting quick one liners. You’re helpful to new people without being condescending and answer accurately. Many of your posts qualify for merit. Why don’t you push me over the fence to your side. Did you come here to make money and accidentally got trapped into interesting discussions or vice versa? Do you think understanding and supporting altcoins help people learn about and appreciate bitcoin? I would rather say it is the other way round. I came here for interesting discussions as well as to learn, but I must confess that I accidentally got trapped a little bit in making money alongside of it. I see that as just a benefit anyway, not like it really matters. Even without making money on this forum, I have always loved interesting debates and discussions, so that would not have changed anything. To your second question, understanding and supporting altcoins, should not even stop anyone from learning about bitcoin or appreciating it and vice versa. There is a lot to learn and altcoins are just a little bit part of the puzzle. I cannot say if it directly helps people learn about and appreciate bitcoin or not, but those who are smart enough usually get to know over time that bitcoin has no rival, and altcoins are just there tagging along. Bitcoin is the first and most popular cryptocurrency, with a lot of advantage to those who appreciate it, moreover, most of us who are really here to learn, actually bumped here as a result of our interest in bitcoin, decentralization and the whole idea of blockchain technology, then along the line, we got to familiarize ourselves with altcoins. Also, like I normally say, you cannot compel people to believe what they do not want to believe, experience usually end up teaching them the right thing to believe, so with or without altcoins, those who know the true value of bitcoin won't need anyone to tell them. |

I can agree with that completely. Altcoins are a diversion from the real reason this forum exists. Making money here is a diversion as well. It’s not the reason for the forum but it is a reason to be here. If cryptocurrency is going to survive bitcoin will be its best destiny. 20 merit awarded |

Thank you.
I believe they will get the merit they deserve. There are a lot of people giving merit now and it’s only a matter of time before people are ranking up without realizing it. If people spend their time worrying about rank then they’re here for the wrong reasons and they shouldn’t be here anyway.
And you aren’t applying because?
Sorry to say but i don't know why i feel weird to direct you toward my 10-20 specific posts. I will be happy if you go through my post history and rate accordingly, so i would able to know where i am standing. |

I don't know what I'm doing wrong! I'm getting the impression that most of the people don't know Merit, or don’t give a **** to rewarding other people!
I usually don't write big posts, or fully analyze a cryptocurrency, but I think I am a useful member for the community!
If you go through my post you will see that I usually help people out with their doubts!
I really need help... What should I change in my posts in order to get more merit points?
I only have received 2 merits and I need a bunch to rank up to Sr. Member!

Anyone can look at your post history anytime they want to. I don’t know why anyone would look at someone’s post history because most people’s post history is boring as hell. The reason I asked you why you aren’t applying is because I already looked at your post history. You easily qualify. You understand the value of bitcoin and support it. You truly participate in discussions. You argue bitcoins value over alts at every turn. It looks like you might be swayed by ethereum but I won’t hold that against you. If you value a currency that has a fixed deflationary quantity versus a maybe we will end the inflation rate some time in the future but no promises currency then you will choose bitcoin. If you like a crypto that has a solid proven PoW security system versus a bipolar PoW/PoS, maybe someday completely PoS, maybe not, currency then you’ll choose bitcoin. No one needs ethereum for smart contracts either, bitcoin can do that with Omni. Even talking about ethereum gives me “gas” (pun intended). 20 merit awarded |

Your a purely altcoin bounty hunter. I don’t know enough about what makes alt people tick to be able to help you appeal to their merit giving mindset. You need to look for merit given in that section and see why people are giving it or perhaps ask the giver why they thought that post was worthy of merit. Good luck to you. |

“Try my luck” You spend too much in the gambling sub. LOL You’ve been here since 2016 but you only have a 185 activity. You will need to post more before you can gain rank. You know to get Sr. Member you’re going to need a 240 activity. At the rate you’re posting now it’s going to take you at least a year. Your posts are good. There’s a reasonable chance that if the right person saw some of them you would get merit. You seem to be from the UK but speak both Arabic and French which to me is an odd combination but kind of cool. I have a question for you. How important do you feel gambling is for the bitcoin ecosystem? I spent a little time looking at the different online casinos to see if I could tell how much bitcoin relies on gambling and I think at times it could be as much as 50% of the daily transactions. As a gambler, you might have a better feel for that. I think gambling is too important for the bitcoin ecosystem, The most of casinos sites are too rich with bitcoin, so This is expected if you see in time that gambling could be as much as 50% of the daily transactions of bitcoin. In addition, I think that a lot of members in the bitcoin community are gamblers, and liked to gamble with cryptocurrencies, especially bitcoin instead of gambling with fiat. They can easily access to gambling sites without any restrictions that can found in casinos and gambling site which accept only fiat. Sorry for the late reply. |

Because you don’t have much post history I’m going to split the amount and give you 10 merit. If you continue to participate in bitcoin discussions and pry yourself out of the gambling sub, you should be able to rank up before you reach enough activity. You’re going to need to become more involved and post more. |

You don’t qualify according to the rules of this thread but I gave you one for the privacy coin thread. It’s kind of a cool list with a good little breakdown of each one. Keep that kind of “value add” posting and you’ll be fine. |

How to ask for thr merit review in this thread?
Is that I need to post links to the quality posts of mine here?Or you will check it by yourself?
You should have the time to read their OP or you really probably don't deserve their time or merit; would you say that's fair? It is very clear what the rules/expectations are in the OP. I would answer more directly, but all I would do is quote OP entirely. |

I already read the OP and here is his/her statement: You will ask me to research your post history and direct me to 10-20 posts that you believe show you have a deep desire to learn about, use, and support bitcoin. I will then ask you a couple of questions about how bitcoin works and you will answer them. I don’t care if you take some time to research the answer if you come up with the correct answer. From this I can understand that he will search our post history by himeself but most of the people are posting their links to their posts includes you thats why I asked like that bro. |

You say that a forum member needs to talk just about bitcoin. Yes, bitcoin was the first cryptocurrency and turned the world upside down. But all becomes outdated and there are new altcoins who are changing the world of cryptocurrency for the better. Bitcoin uses POW algorithm and a long transaction, it is now becoming unprofitable and many understand it.
About gaining merit. I believe that the main reason for the introduction of merit is the limitation of the number of participants in the bounty companies. Users want to increase their rank just to earn more than now and it's normal. The merit that will be presented by you will still be used for earnings on bounty companies, that is, for earnings on altcoins. I understand you were one of the first members who created and supported this forum and you certainly deserve respect, but the capitalization of altcoins is growing and more and more people trust them and want somehow to capitalize on this.

You easily qualify. You’re obviously older than the average poster here and more seasoned. You’re all over the forum in every section. I would expect you to learn everything you need to know through research. 20 merit awarded. |

You’re right, I do look at all of your post history. I ask you to list posts that you feel deserve merit because you may need help understanding what is valuable enough to receive merit. If you can’t figure out how to post effectively you will never receive any merit other than what I give you in this thread. I’m not giving away enough for anyone to rank up without additional work. You are an example of this concept. Your posting style is either very fast and you don’t spend enough time reviewing or English is a second language for you. You will need your average post to become more intelligible in order to rank up. You say repeatedly that bitcoin is the “king of crypto” so I know you appreciate bitcoin but you are very much an altcoin supporter. I believe you primarily came here to make money but are attempting to really participate in discussions, at least in the altcoin sections. I’m afraid I can’t award you merit right now. You’re going to need a little more history before I can help you. |
