Title: Do forum signatures have any value anymore ?
Post by: CryptoGirl on August 14, 2018, 12:13:22 PM
I have been a member of btt forum for a long time, and back when this ICO euphoria started the ICOs wanted to reach the investors that have BTC and thus were considered potential investing targets.
Thus the idea of offering signature bounty was a smart move ... but ... since then thousands of ICOs have been launched and i am pretty sure the signature tactic have much less effect than it used to have for reaching investors.

I will even dare to say, it is almost useless, what do you think ?

I believe that the signatures are less relevant at this time, but still they work to attract potential investors. Payment would not be so high if it did not work. I know personally the Bounty manager, who, just like you are convinced that the time of subscription companies has gone and he does not use it in advertising his work projects.

Should be an easy thing to track on the ISP side, just check where traffic is coming from and should be able to see the amount of clicks its generation.. I think all members aren't the same however, and people pay much more attention to what the higher ranks are doing.. I could be wrong though would love to see some of the data.

I think the importance of advertising on signatures is directly related with the message content of that user.
For sure, someone writing really good content will attract more views for your signature and many will associate that product advertised with the quality of what they are reading.
A basic question of associative marketing.

However, I think signature is still effective way to attract investors. The possibility to get investors in a crypto forum is bigger than other campaigns like social media, articles, or others. It is because the crypto forum members are people who understand about the crypto business. They are a group of people who really have the intention to invest. So, It's very potential to reach investors there. And the best way to do this is with a signature.

Signature is a mobile announcement where there are interested ICOs and other interested BTC
It also depends on the trust given to the members, especially the expert and old members of the ICO
If the ICO is strong and honest, senior members will give it confidence and thus trust the investor
These are many factors that need to be analyzed before investing in any ICOs.

Signatures are still a powerful way of connecting with potential investors compared to other social media channels, with the possible exception of Telegram. Most people in forums already have an interest in crypto, so if the right one comes up, it's game on. All forms of advertising have their pros and cons, and any bounty campaign will try to tap into all of them.

In fact, it cannot be said that the signature is completely useless. It's just because Shitcoin is too much. If you can carefully screen, there are still some quality activities.

You are right my friend. When Bounty started the company, many forum users did not know about them, they were people who were looking for good projects and at that time signature companies worked best on attracting investors. Now, those people who were just investors became hunters. I want to say that all bounty hunters are the same investors. Personally, I pay attention to the signatures of other people and I search for myself in this way projects for investment.

In a sustained bear market, there's very little that has value in my opinion. As others said, signatures still work very well to spread the word, even if it's to less active users. I've noticed that the value of airdrops and bounties in general has declined due to the influx of new bounty hunter and airdrop participants. I think the tables will turn when there is not enough participants due to the lack of income, then the value of signatures will no doubt rise again. Given that a lot of the time the income is also dividable by no. of participants. To summarize: the value of signature campaigns is inverse to the price of BTC/crypto in my opinion, the lower the value of crypto goes, the higher the value of signatures due to a reduction in participants. However, the value of tokens will still be very low until a bull market returns.

In business world you will reach every single parts in order to attract supporters and potential investors. Social media, signature, and some campaigns are part of the techniques to possible massive impact of growth. Unfortunately, there are things that beyond our compression that sometimes the reason why seems everything is not valuable.

Signature is still effective especially when you offer the signature to higher ranks like Sr.member to Legend because they have the credibility to advertise a certain project. Investors really invest to what they know powerful, if a higher ranks wear it of course investors will invest if they are reached.

I agree with you. Signature bounty on high rank will increase advertise cause that member had verify that bounty and maybe many people will join that project.

Sure, if you can find a good promising ico, signatures still have great value. I'm always checking for new and better projects/bounty campaigns.

Lately I worked as an advisor for few ICO's and all of them where not happy with bounty campaign effects.

One of this projects haven't sell even one token during the hall campaign. Despite that bounty was successful and many people joined and was active to the end.
The main problem of BTT are bots and badly managed campaigns with bad rules.

I see here great opportunity for our forum. We already see decline in signature bounties and awards. There are new merget bounty campaigns needed signature plus social and only for high rank members "influencers" with knowledge and dedication with blogs and thousands of followers.

This is the only way to make this bounties work further.

I agree with you my brother.
Cryptocurrency forum is one of many place which related with people that interested in cryptocurrecy and better to offer the project.
And signature is on of way to do that.
Member with high rank and always share good post I think still good work to advertise a project.

People who really cares about the project should be the priority, if high rank members who are very well known that signature is just part of extra earnings and not the main reason why they are inside the forum are far better to handle the campaign, what I've seen a lots of bot has been created in order to join the campaign not helping to project but just completely spamming the forum.

For me, in business advertisements, you need to go as far as covering the little holes, to get the attention of big investors out there. Signature is still a good way of making adverts and it should not be underestimated.

Thats right,and billions of investment are also speaking for themselves.If there is no other big advertisement, this money is coming from bountys.And  signature plays the role as well as other types of advertising.

I'm probably going to try a small scale signature campaign for a project I'm working on. Personally I don't like how most ICOs just buy a massive amount of signatures based on members ranks on the forum. In my mind it's cheaper, and probably more effective to get a few members who post quality stuff and close to the niche of the project.

Another thing why you might think that signature campaigns have less value (and I'm not claiming they aren't mind you) is that we are in a bear market and have been for a long time.

Payment would not be so high if it did not work. I know personally the Bounty manager, who, just like you are convinced that the time of subscription companies has gone and he does not use it in advertising his work projects.

I disagree that payment wouldn't be high, even if a signature campaign didn't work. Many times people have no idea if something will work, but think that if everyone else does a signature campaign, it has to work. So they too invest in a signature campaign, keeping the price of signatures high. Doesn't mean that projects got results from signature campaigns though.

Pet peeve of mine: could you guys please update your location to something a little more specific than "Canada?" How about the town, province? I love to know just where people are from, and it makes me sad when people just put "Canada."

It just makes it too easy for the Yanks love you to think we all come from the exact same place any of you who have travelled to the US will understand this feeling.

Thanks.

If the forum will become noisier in social media, probably it is effective anyway. However, to all communities in BTT forum or here at altcoin talk, this platform will become most effective for them for sure, because they knew that there is an opportunity here in the forum. So for me, signature still has value to give more profit to anyone as long as they know how to handle and to choose the legit one that will conduct a campaign project.

Yes, if you join a good campaign you can earn some from your signature, look at mine, ARCS is an amazing project and is giving to us an opportunity to grab some tokens by wearing their signature.

Signature in my opinion is very much relevant maybe not as serious as before but still relevant in today's project to attract investors, for example, in btt, whenever I come across a new signature for a project, I usually click on the link to the website of that project to learn more and gather much information as possible about the project,  same may applies to many other members as well.

Title: Re: Do forum signatures have any value anymore ?

Yes, it has, some project stills pay for forum user to wear a signature, this is some kind of targeted marketing since everyone here is related to crypto, the signature can bring more people to know about a project/service/product, and nowadays is still effective.

LOL, don't underestimate the power of a signature.  Signature as we know it, is used as and advertising space.  If you are clever enough to know what to advertise in it, you will be amazed on how useful it is.  Please let me remind you that the signature space is not only for those bounty campaign created in this forum.  It is also used to advertise whatever sites you own, or have that it will get a traffic to it.  If you found a worthy sites than can generate you a good amount of earnings simply by generating traffic then you will be amazed how wonderful forum signature space is.

It is not useless if am asked, signatures still play a major role in helping projects gather investors, though it may seem like it doesn't but trust me, it does, I personally look at signatures of different projects most of the time and it is from signatures I discover some of the projects I invest in most of the time

I won't judge cause you're speaking from your view and might be right. But I've actually participated in few bounties from signature I saw from a member on the forum, now that signature actually drew me close to tje project and I became a participant and learnt more about the project so I don't think is actually useless.

You need to revise your statement, mate. The signature campaign is not always wasting your time. There are some signature campaigns that really give you great rewards. But you need to analyze the potential signature campaigns to find them out. Several signature campaigns paid you, but it isn't a sufficient amount. Some ended with no rewards/payments. And others can give you a great amount of money.

As @alltalk says very well, if you analyze a bounty, that it has a good team, a clear project and users are interested, you can earn a lot of money, I assure you, I have seen it with many friends and I have done it too.

In my own opinion, just like what you said it is almost useless. Well, for almost all investors it is. But for the newbie it is not useless at all.
Title: Re: Do forum signatures have any value anymore ?
Post by: Freemind on February 21, 2021, 10:35:12 AM
I don't think it's useless. Not all teams launching a project have enough capital to spend large amounts of money on marketing, therefore, signature campaigns can be of great use to them, since they promote their project within a specific sector. The euphoria of ICOs (IEO, STO and more) is back as we can all see, and it will last at the same level and number of projects while the bull market lasts, when the market does not move or falls, fewer projects will be launched. Signature campaigns are also good for users who, for example have no money to invest and want to earn some coins/tokens.
