HOW THIS WORKS??

[Name: Claudio]

When you say membership, are you referring to copper member?
-Upgrading your membership status is paying amount to become upgraded.
or you just referring to Rank?
-as for rank to reach up Jr. Member you just have to increase your activity.

merits are based on the quality of your content. I would highly suggest you to post something which is helpful to others. your level will be upgraded based on your merits.

There is no such option to update the membership . You have to write quality posts to increase your ranking. Ranking will increase based on Merit and activity. For more details go to newbiee section.

So I answered this question before, I wanted to share the answer with you too: the Merit system was introduced in January of 2018.  According to forum Administrator Theymos, "The merit system was done to increase the quality of the posts and to prevent the spam."  According to Theymos it does this in two ways:

1. Forcing people to post high-quality stuff in order to rank up. If you just post garbage, you will never get even 1 merit point, and you will therefore never be able to put links in your signature, etc.
2. Highlighting good posts with the "Merited by" line.

So In addition to activity, everyone now has a merit score and you need both a certain activity level and a certain merit score in order to reach higher member ranks.

As I said before there is much discussion about this on the "meta" section of bitcointalk.

Good luck to all us newbies!

Thanks alot!!!

Actually I've been wondering, is there some kind of way to make a significant donation, money or work, that would get you full member instantly?

[MintDice]

Well, merits and leveling-up kind of go hand in hand. Once you get to activity of 14, the restrictions on how often you can post are lightened. When you post frequently (and good quality), other users reward you with merit which you combine with your activity to move up rank.

Good luck
