[Moved Atalk] UniJoin - CoinJoin Mixer | Sig Campaign | Up to $120/W

[tabas]

I hope UniJoin will add a non-custodial wallet soon. 

Just curious... will that do any change of the current situation...?

Prolly because of this.

Examples of things that are not banned mixers include exchangers (unless they have a mixing function), CoinJoin-supporting non-custodial wallets, and Monero.

[The Sceptical Chymist]

I’m getting $75 or BTC0.0021 every week for UniJoin’s campaign which’s managed by icopress. In my country it’s a big amount. I’ve stacked sats I didn’t spend them so I’ve got a $900 backer saved. Some ppl work all day but don’t earn $300 each month so getting it for a sig campaign bumps my income. It’s a lot of money for me so thanks icopress.

I probably would not have said this a few years ago, but I really like reading posts like the above.  There are good and bad aspects to having sig campaigns on the forum, but they're of great benefit to people like you and I think Satoshi would strongly approve of that.

Icopress is an excellent manager; I don't know how many campaigns he's managing, but hopefully this new change we've got going on doesn't put him out of work.

Thanks. Sig campaigns helped me stack sats my bitcoin balance's BTC0.02487037. Some ppl don't get the chance but thanks to icopress I've received BTC0.01589 that's $600 for 9 weeks in UniJoin's sig campaign as Full Member. That's a good sum to help when bad days show in your life.

I'm selling web dev services تطوير الويب والخدمات الفنية [أنا متاح] & [available] Web Development & Technical Services but haven't received work from ppl in the forum. I'm hopeful I'll get jobs soon because if I'm paid in bitcoin I'll be able to stack more sats.

I was on a different sig campaign but their CM didn't pay me in full for counted posts or reply when I asked him. When I applied for UniJoin icopress accepted me I can't explain how happy that made me. I'm only Full Member so I'm grateful to icopress he's been generous. If I can't work with him in January I'll always thank him. I hope he'll manage more campaigns.

You are doing good, keep stacking and DCAing, keep up the good work!


I spent 15 weeks in this campaign, and it was clearly an extremely well managed campaign.

But there's still a month to go to promote good services! We'll see what the future holds in terms of campaigns, but in any case I hope icopress finds other services to promote. 

I sincerely hope that mixers won't suffer too much from this loss of communication vector.

Cheers, everyone.  It was fun while it lasted.  My sincere thanks to icopress and UniJoin (soon to be redacted, I assume).

Yes, I hope UniJoin will add a non-custodial wallet soon. 

Will the signature campaign keep going until the 31st of December anyway?

Friends, you have been amazing this week! Week 34 payouts are on the way.  

Payout rates have been changed.

Code:

All ranks: $3/post
All ranks: $4/post (if you have more than 1000 merit).

[Turbartuluk]

I have updated Signature and Avatar.
Current Post count (including this one): 1024

[Ale88]

Payout rates have been changed.

Code:

All ranks: $3/post
All ranks: $4/post (if you have more than 1000 merit).

I don't understand, have the payout rates decreased? Before it was 0.00012 BTC/post for those with more than 1000 merit, let's round up BTC price at $40k (right now it's almost $44k), that means it used to be $4.8/post; the new $4/post pay rate means 0.0001 BTC/post. Are my calculations correct?

Well, kind of yes, but it depends on the conversion rate of BTC vs. US-$. In your calculation based on a rate of $40k you indeed get less than before. Atm, we are somewhere around $43k/BTC, i.e. you only get ~9300 instead of 12000sat per post (Legendary with >1k merits). I know it's even worse for myself. With respect to the upcoming mixer policy in this forum I don't complain about the significant cut, it's something else. Let me explain...

I must say that I find it a somewhat sad deviation from a commitment to pay a constant amount of sats per post to now an amount tied to a constant fiat amount. I don't ignore fiat but I clearly found the commitment to a fixed and constant amount of sats way more appealing. It's more BTCish...

I assume this wasn't an idea of icopress but rather forced by marketing and/or accounting guys from [banned mixer]? Well, it is what it is and I'm not amused. Such a decision doesn't feel right when I look at the blog posts and articles from UniJoin and the picture of Bitcoin they tried to highlight and emphasize. Enough ranting for today...

I understand what you mean, but, at the end you are still paid in BTC and this is the most important thing IMHO

I think it is predictable, that some campaign with a fixed amount of sats per post could change to an usd rate when BTC is rising and fees too. At least the campaign seems to be going on until the 31st, this is nice!

[WhyFhy]

ICO it's been a pleasure , I bought a house this year and haven't been very active, you've been very patient with my absences and I really appreciate it. You did great with betnomi too! And your handling this situation well.

[Cricktor]

I think it is predictable, that some campaign with a fixed amount of sats per post could change to an usd rate when BTC is rising and fees too.

I don't ignore the volatility of Bitcoin, but frankly there should be announced rules for such changes of a fixed sats per post rate in a campaign. Otherwise it defies the purpose to offer a fixed sats per post pay rate in my opinion.

I wonder if the pay rate would've been raised if Bitcoin's value in US-$ would've taken the opposite direction in a significant manner. Anyway, let's enjoy the final days of this campaign and see what the future will bring.

[arabspaceship123]

paid2 thanks for the advice. I didn't spend any of it I'm still stacking sats from UniJoin sig campaign. I still haven't received job offers for my web dev service. I'm hoping I'll get jobs soon I'd like to be paid in Bitcoin so I'll continue stacking sats.

Getting kind icopress as sig campaign manager helped because he's different to the unhelpful sig campaign manager I've had before. Thanks to icopress I'll receive an amount until 1st Jan so I'm thanking him for entering me for the UniJoin campaign. I'm grateful for the experience.

Completly agree! Some time ago we had a kind of discussion to that in the german board:

Mit bis zu 30 bezahlten Beiträgen zu je 0.0001 BTC (jetzt mal ab Sr. gerechnet) haben die Kampagnen ab nem Kurs von 50k$ die Nase ganz weit vorn (vorausgesetzt natürlich, die Vergütung pro Post kann aufrecht erhalten werden). Mit den Boni ab 1k, 2k, 4k merit wäre das entsprechend noch früher. Also für mich gehören die definitiv zu den Top Kampagnen dazu!

At this bitcoin rate, a participant with 4,000 merits will receive about $240.

It left the impression to me, that even at 50k$ fix BTC-rates will be paid. Changes are business as usual an the Payment ist still very competitive, but it leaves a bland aftertaste as there was no adjustment in die Dips downward before. To my mind it's not about the payment but about communication.

Im assuming that the campaign continues on the 25th to 31th week, my question is, what happens if wearing a signature campaign about mixers is not allowed by the 1th? I will definitely not be available on the last days of the year, and I don't want to find my account banned because theymos starts instabanning everyone that was wearing a mixer link by 1th 00:00, so how to go about this? because if I remove it before the week ends, im assuming payments aren't sent.

1) The ban will not start at 1:00 am.
2) Mixers ban will be wordfilter ban.
3) You will not be banned because you are wearing unijoin signature and signature will be similar to what happened with stresse signature.


https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5467001.0

4) After several days, if you do not change the signature, it will be deleted.
5) If you continue to advertise mixing services, you will be banned.
6) We hope that UniPool via non-custodial wallets will be launched and then this campaign can continue.

Note that the timeline will be something like this:
 - Sometime on Jan 1 (at an arbitrary time, not midnight), the wordfilters will be put into place, the announcement threads will be locked, and mixer-run accounts will be put into PM-only-mode. If any threads/accounts are missed after all of the other ones are affected, please report them. If new wordfilters should be added, please post in a topic in Meta about it.
 - Sig-campaign (etc.) threads which appear not to be soliciting new promotion might not need to be locked at all, and wrap-up-related posts can still happen there. We don't plan on going through all of the sig-campaign threads and locking them all. But if they're continuing to generate promotion, they will be locked.
 - Mixer sigs will be affected by the wordfilter on Jan 1. After a few days (ie. not immediately on Jan 1), signatures containing any of the wordfiltered URLs will be blanked. I haven't decided yet whether I'll remove old mixer avatars: if I do, it won't be for at least a few weeks after Jan 1. (New mixer avatars definitely aren't allowed.)

I think the signature form will be
