I'm just in the process of notifying all participants of their selection via DM and anyone that hasn’t received a DM by the end of today has not been selected to start yet, however we will be adding more participants in the next week or two.
For all those that receive the DM today...
Here’s what you need to do in order to get a guaranteed $10 in crypto plus the chance to win up to another $45:1. Go to
https://emerging.technology and create your account ( the best avatar will also win another $10
)
2. Contact me on Emerging.Technology via the message system. My name is Quantum and you can just reply to the welcome message that is sent. In the reply let me know your username from BCT.
Also make sure to contact me here as well via PM to tell me your Emerging.Technology username so that other's can't impersonate you.3. There are two places you can then create content in order to participate: the “Cryptocurrency” section and the “Blockchain” section.
For each section you can enter and will receive $5 just for entering, as long as you don’t create half-assed answers that are clearly rush jobs or copied from somewhere else online. If you do this you won’t receive anything unfortunately.
To enter you can do one of two things:
a) Answer 20 questions in that section
b) Create a single guide in the “Guides” section.For answering the questions, you can select any 20 questions to answer as long as they don’t already have 4 answers. If a question has 4 different answers already, you have to choose a different one.
For creating a guide, you have to create a guide that is a minimum of 800 words and that starts with “How to…”. It can be anything that is a useful thing for new crypto users to know about.. i.e. “How to Set Up a MetaMask Account and Create Your Own Cryptocurrency”, or “How to Use the Binance API”.
Again if anyone copy-pastes anything we will easily see that using copyscape and other tools we already use when having content created and will act accordingly.
We will choose the 3 winners from each section based on the quality of the information provided, irrespective of whether you answer questions or create a guide. We’d love to see some people answer questions and some people create guides.
We will close entries on Sunday 12th January 2020 at 1 minute to midnight, and will announce the winners publicly on this thread on Tuesday 14th January 2020.
>** To be super clear - If you create a guide for the cryptocurrency section for example, you will earn $5 for doing so and will have the chance to win between $20 - $10 extra if your contribution is in the top 3 for cryptocurrency. If you then go and answer 20 blockchain questions, you will receive another $5 and you will have the chance to also win another $20 - 10 on top if you’re one of the best 3 blockchain contributors **<Payments for participation ($5 for crypto, $5 for blockchain) will be paid within 3 days of your completing your submission.
Payments for the overall prizes will be paid after the completion of the comp and the announcement on the 12th and 14th of January respectively.More people can enter during the competition time period if they comment here next week for example and we decide they would be a good participant.
If you have any questions it’s best to contact me (Quantum) via chat in your Emerging.Technology account, although I will answer all enquiries here in this thread as well.
The idea is quiet interesting but there, the questions are pretty common. I have a question, where is the funds (for payment) from? From you, or those who ask the questions?
Solid questions. The funds are from me, I'm the owner of the community. Also regarding the questions being common, I think I'm going to add another 20 questions for each one (crypto, blockchain) and then there won't be 15 answers all for the same 20 questions.. People can choose whichever 20 they want to answer in each.
Updates tomorrow morning GMT time.
So basically you are promoting your own forum and paying your members with your own funds and it is eventually face an end cause you will run out of money. And when the forum is no longer paying, those who are staying there just for the money might be leaving the forum.
What do you think about that? Like what's your plan to avoid that?
Hey thanks very much for the question. No this is not an ongoing process, it's just a singular competition.
We aren't permanently paying to have content produced, this competition is running until January and we might run other competitions similar to this after it's complete and winners have been selected, but only selected participants in this round will be paid and have the chance to win additional crypto if they are in the top 3 highest quality participants.
I hope that answers your question.
