Hopefully this is the right Board to ask this. Well it's nothing much just some question about activeness of members in the forum.
I think there have been some decline in the number of active members for sometime now
1. Is this as a result of low /lack of signature campaign
2. Or it's because of the low traffic that there's low number of campaigns
3. Or maybe both
4. Or The forum is still it's growing phase and haven't gotten to the height of having active users per hour in Thousands or reached campaigns that would be interested in promoting their product.
The essence of this is it's like there's a significant relationship between campaigns and how active the forum gets.
TBH joined the forum because it was relatively new and would allow me build a reputation if I joined Now and maybe enable me to gain access to better campaigns in the long run.
There are many users that have stayed in the forum and continue been active not mainly for the monetary benefit but as a form of love for their community.
I know belongness as times goes on starts overwhelming monetary benefits while in a community but before then did Campaign play a role in making you active or your desire to seek more knowledge?
Thank you.

Without statistics, all we will say is speculation, but in general, for new members to continue joining the forum, the quality of discussions must be high so that the data is archived first in search engines. These engines are the ones that bring new visits.
Also, the adoption of more projects on publishing ANN here and the presence of Bounty campaigns will contribute a lot to enhancing traffic.
Note that a large portion of BTT traffic was coming from Google and YouTube, so trying to create visual content to introduce the forum may contribute.
In general, I think that mixer campaigns may continue here for a long time, so at least we can guarantee that traffic will not drop severely.
-
Yes, I think I agree that signature campaigns are quite useful to increase the traffic on this forum. Many people join such forums and make posts to gain some revenue by sharing their knowledge with other members of the community and there's nothing wrong in such approach.
I believe most of the companies that want to run their promotional campaigns also want to have more exposure on forums where users are more active and they makes good posts.
By keeping that in our mind, we can see the forum is getting way more active then it used to be and that's why I believe in long term campaigns will continue to advertise here and overtime traffic of the forum will also continue to increase.
-
I find it very hard to find enough topics that interest me enough to comment on. I might get 12-15 comments in a week and I struggle to get that many, so for me we just don't have enough members creating new topics on different boards.
If I am struggling, then I am sure that others are struggling. When we have a lack of participation, lack of new, lack of interest, then everything suffers. Traffic, number of interested companies wanting to advertise here, number of users who want to come here etc.
We need an influx of new members, we need users posting consistently on all boards, we need users keeping topics alive. We need it regardless of if in a campaign or not. Look at how many accounts do nothing unless being paid, that's not really being part of the community IMO.

I monitor every posts and topics of the forum. So far it averages 550 a day in the last 30 days. There is a fall in 04/22, and its monday, which is payday of most campaigns here also that time increased the bitcoin fees so high, idk the main reason of the fall but it could be somehow affects users' activity that day.

I think we need to discuss more about altcoin. When I joined here I thought that the discussions and comparisons about altcoin would be deeper, but look at the boards of Ethereum, Solana, XRP , Polygon , Cardano ,...etc. You will find them all about the price and not discussions about the blockchain or the developments that could occur. The situation is completely different on the Bitcoin board.

Why do you think that is though? Lack of users simply interested in more than chasin a buck?

I think it is BOTH ? because the forum needs traffic to be consider by businesses running campaigns but also campaigns are needed to have bigger traffic so this is a two way thing.
but also you are correct about the forum is still maturing and getting into what Bitcointalk attains , this forum is half a time from the other forum so maybe this needs another couple of years to have larger traffic.
-
I've been here since 2021 and I can say that after the mixers ban, the activity here is much higher than before. Previously I found it difficult just to comment on a thread since most of the time it's just a news bot or spam. However, the traffic might still be far from the "neighboring forum" though, so you can't really compare them. We need more link juice + valuable info to be ranked higher on SERP.
-
I am fairly new to this forum registered a while ago and been dormant then got active cause I am free from my stuff. Ever since I can see the activity is on the rise, can't comment about the previous but emergence of campaigns actually brought more life to this forum which everyone will agree.
We don't see yet many sig campaigns like we see on bitcointalk but sooner or later this also can be a place where everyone wants to advertise their service/products.
I do feel that the lack of quality topics stops me from commenting more.
-
It is true that the forum traffic is not very large, especially if we compare it with BTT traffic, but although it may seem to many of you that there is little traffic, I can assure you that it is quite high compared to previous years. Signature campaigns logically have a lot of traction and make BTT users and other new users register on the forum. I hope that over time, users will not only write threads/posts for the dollars they can receive, but because they will find this forum a comfortable place to talk about cryptocurrencies. I know it's difficult for what I'm saying to happen, but a long time ago the traffic the forum has now was a dream.

I agree 100%
We have SEO problems I think. It doesn't appear in search results.
Additionally, I think there are too many boards and it is difficult to find topics and to find the correct place to post it.
Questions from newbies like "I lost my ethereum using phantom and metamask please help" are very good for SEEO, and we don't have those here..
-

Yes, before the mixers ban on Bitcointalk the forum used to be less active then the way it is today. I have personally not experienced that myself but when I teleported to this forum from Bitcointalk, I saw way less active posts.
Most of the threads were made in 2020 or early then that and many of the threads of that era didn't receive even a single reply. I believe the activity level increase so many times on this forum after mixer campaigns moved here.

I am happy to see most of my friends from bitcointalk here.
I believe that we have members of very high knowledge in this forum, but we lack opportunities to show this knowledge. We need more active discussions
-
I guess, the forum still need a little time to draw in more traffic. Going through some forum stats on BTT for the past month since mixers were banned, you will see that some members have really drawn back in their previous active status, Since they have to be active on both forums. I think the forum needs more campaigns and new discussions, to actually draw more traffic to it self. New campaigns will be launched in the future and so a lot of new members would register and also old members with high ranked accounts will want to be active ones again.

Yes, I highly agree with you, the members on this forum are very much knoweledable about crypto-currencies because most of them are directly teleported from the no 1 crypto currency forum Bitcointalk and that's why almost 99% of the members who teleported here have enough knowledge that they can share overtime.
This forum is still getting to the activity level day by day, and within a year we may see more useful discussions taking place on this forum. I can see a better future of this forum, and I'm very sure that as soon other crypto currency users find about it they will continue to make accounts on this forum and make more useful topics.

All the possibilities that you foresee here refer to the number of campaigns. Here I would add one more option
5. There are not enough members here who will publish quality posts and thus attract new businesses to promote themselves through campaigns.
Additionally, I think there are too many boards and it is difficult to find topics and to find the correct place to post it.
Questions from newbies like "I lost my ethereum using phantom and metamask please help" are very good for SEEO, and we don't have those here..
This is the essence.
If this forum wants to grow, not only "rich" campaigns are enough, but also content that will be useful to others outside the forum. It is full of discussions dealing with speculations and what will happen if... No one searches for such things.
Also, it seems to me that forcing bounty and earning possibilities as the primary thing on the forum obviously does not produce results. As far as I can see, that part of the forum is quite inactive or occasionally some campaigns appear for which there is no interest.
A few days ago I was looking for a good place to open a discussion about some services, I believe that such topics have no place in any "discussion" section.
In general, I think that mixer campaigns may continue here for a long time, so at least we can guarantee that traffic will not drop severely.
For mixers, these are relatively cheap campaigns, even if compared to what they paid on Btt, on that side they can last much longer. However, at some point when they evaluate the results, it does not mean that they will continue if they are not satisfied.
-

Thank you.
Both... because the quality of the user and also the activeness of the user are interconnected so that they can get a place to become a campaign participant. The parameters used by campaign managers are none other than because they want to select users with good quality and more consistent activity, of course users who have these two advantages will get a better place in the eyes of the manager.
So it forces us to learn from each other and also be active in this forum. In the end, we will become more accustomed to being active in the forum and will slowly understand the forum more and more.
-

I didn't look at exact statistics but I don't think that majority of members in AltcoinsTalks forum is teleported from bitcointalk.
We need more real quality conversation between members, people offering services, solving problems, etc. not just because they are in some signature campaign.
-

They will continue to promote even if there are no clicks as long as the forum is active. Marketing is based on brand are always present. The number of clicks does not matter as much as the number of impressions, and inevitably during discussions and the increased need for privacy, the members’ recommendations here will be useful in the long term.
Why do you think that is though? Lack of users simply interested in more than chasin a buck?
Campaign managers can help by hiring who have deep altcoin experience, I mean 1 good poster per board who active and create topics will be better, all subsequent things will come accordingly.
Campaign manager can add "need an active Litecoin board member"

I think it is hard to find discussions about the priject itself not just the price.
And there is a lack of technical discussions. We only see questions like "what is the best wallet?"

I would like to help the forum in this way
But we really need a better organization. It is hard to find boards, because many if the boards redirects to the same and we have tons of earnings and bounty (which are bad traffic imo)
-

Well, as soon as Theymos banned the mixers from Bitcointalk, of course there was going to be a spike of users at altcoinstalks. And now it appears to have become calmer but it has not revered to its original numbers.
This kind of pattern is common among internet services that don't exactly hit it in their "growth phase". For example, Threads started with a record 100m users in I think two days, but then lost most of those users to inactivity in the weeks after. Then there was a similar spike again a few months later, which calmed down, etc.

Same here, I also find that difficult. To be honest, there are so many boards, especially child boards, that I can't seem to find any suitable or active subjects to engage in a discussion. It's like an endless puzzle. And most of the time, I would check the "View the most recent posts on the forum." option to find any active topics. Sometimes I would check posts from my BTT buddies for topics to discuss. I'm trying my best to know this forum, maybe then I'll be able to post without any difficulties.

Famous question, that is very hard to answer for the 100 times... that is why we need to have topics with bunch of pages and mew posts created all the time.
I am going to start reporting similar topics to moderators for locking.

I don't think it reverted back to original members, there are several new members who teleported and stay active.
-
I will also add two observations that making people to decline after registering I. The forum and post only few things and left. And the first one is the pay rate. Some people came here and see the pay rate and left the forum and I think this has been discussed in one of the thread in BTT. And someone was saying that this forum pay rate is too small. Then the second one is the lack of campaigns. The number of campaigns in the forum is too small so people are not coming like that again and I think yahoo62278 asked this question before in the forum and answers were given. If you noticed recently those who were active in the forum when they were in any of the paused campaigns are no longer posting again, because there are no more in campaign and once there is a new campaign open, you will notice that they will come back again.

This happens even on Bitcointalk. After the mixer was banned, Jambler was also turned off, now Bestchange, some of the most generous campaigns are no longer on the forum. You can certainly feel that lack. Add to that that over time, certain old users leave the forum for other reasons, and a decrease in activity is expected.

Yah you are right I noticed that too. And recently a lot of campaigns have left the forum over there making many members stranded and many of them are not posting again. While some have left the forum and if this continues then most of the good members will leave the forum and once they left then the forum will turn to spammers and scammers zone and the falling of the forum might come from there unless the admin do something fast. +Karma for you. You speak well.

People are using the forum for money, plain and simple. Doesn't matter which forum, they are only active and posting if they're paid for it. Go look at spreadsheets and look at the number of posts required and the number of posts done weekly. Most times, if they got a 25 per week qouta they do exactly 25.
I'm not against earning money, but what some users need to realize is they have to be active all the time if they want a manager to accept them into a campaign. You cannot be told that so n so just launched a campaign and suddenly you make 10 posts really quick and hope to get a spot. Managers will check how active you have been and pick someone else.

Yeah, I mean at the end of the day, it is a business and you are being paid to advertise for them. So since there is a large, you could say "talent pool" to choose campaign participants from, I am not surprised to see that the same problems at Bitcointalk of many people being overlooked for limited campaign spots are happening here too.

Except you and julerz12 I don't think other Managers were picking active members but those who just teleport their accounts to the forum were picked automatically. And when some of the campaigns paused and those who were picked once as they teleport their accounts to this place are inactive and that is to tell you that they were not here to educate or contribute but because of the campaign and since there no campaign for them, they have also stopped posting. And you will see with your eyes that once there is a campaign from those managers they will still pick those inactive accounts to work with them. If you noticed after some of the campaigns paused, those reputable members that were teleported from the BTT have not posted anything.

There is high competition now even in bitcointalk .
There isn't room for everyone, even for the most reputable members.
Fewer campaigns,l and fewer payrates. Even in the bull market.
Let's hope for the best!
I must confess that both forums became an important share of my monthly income over the past years.
Specially for users who live in developing countries.
-

I think we are going to see new campaigns soon, someone needs to fill the gap that was created recently.
There is room for everyone in other campaigns but some reputable members won't advertise everything because they could be scared off their government.
Other members don't want to participate in some campaigns if they are paid below their expectations, and that is perfectly fine.

I think expectations will definitely change...
My expectations changed already.
With ads from my domain + btt sig + btt avatar + altcoins sig my income is still smaller than my single CM signature from less than 2 years ago.

That's true, expectations should change with time because back then there were many opportunities to earn good pay rates but these days it's not that easy to find campaign with brilliant pay rates even on Bitcointalk. I believe in such case on should try to limit their expectations and earn something instead of nothing.

The lower payrate is definitely not a motivator for users. It's fine for some, but others are used to at the minimum, what they have been getting from the other forum and that just hasn't happened here so far. Probably why not as many reputable users joining here IMO.
It's going to take time for this forum to grow but I did expect more companies would be here by now. It's been almost 6 months.

Same here, especially gambling companies. They make up the majority of signature campaigns on Bitcointalk and a lot more announce themselves there, but same has not been replicated here yet.
If more companies come in, the pay should get more competitive as everyone looks to capture the traffic.

Do not forget that some may not want to advertise gambling, loans, or pump dump scam campaigns, which makes a few remaining options available. Motives vary from religious, to fear of governments, and other reasons.
Mixer campaigns were in a gray area for many, but at least they were an acceptable option for the majority, so joining these campaigns was for the majority.
The most acceptable option currently is non KYC exchages, but I do not know whether BTT/ALTT forum will remain the first choice for advertisers or whether this will change.

Exch.cx has sponsored the forum and it has its own session.
But they do not have a sig campaign here.

And what would early CM campagn members say than? ;)
Some of them remember good old days of getting big amount of coins every week, and than manager had to reduce value to $300 per week, if I am not mistaken.
One guy was even caught cheating with two (or more) accounts in same campaign :P

Yeah, but those high rates didn't last long.
I remember to see CM paying 0.0375 btc per week, but this was lower than 200 usd for a very long time. But it was always the best paying camping in the forum.
Bitcoin was below 10k for a long time

That is why it is not good to calculate your signature payments in USD and other fiat currencies, if you are not selling coins all the time.
Count everything in Bitcoin or Sats and there is a good chance value will increase in future, looking long term.
I want to see new campaigns and Bitcoin wales need to be more creative, they can maybe create paid campaign in forum for release of Roger Ver or Ross Ulbricht from prison.

I remember to see CM paying 0.0375 btc per week, but this was lower than 200 usd for a very long time. But it was always the best paying camping in the forum.
The highest amount I earned from the signature campaigns was 0.15 per month, in 2019 it was about ~$1,600, and I sold it in 2021 at a price of 51k, so it was ~ $7,650 per month.
About two years ago you could get $800 a month and it was about 0.047 Bitcoin. If the price of Bitcoin rose to 160k then it would be $7520.
Currently, if we assume that you can get $680, which is equal to 0.0098 Bitcoin, if the price rises to 160k, it is about $1,568, but you need to wait for about another 5 years to get numbers close to $5,000.
so just hodling ;D

I think it is important to think in USD terms, not in BTC terms.
When you receive 0.15 a month, but that is "only" $1600 not $7600.
It is basically the same as buying $1600 BTC per month.
You could just have used your real life wage to buy more BTC each week...

The gambling section is more active now than it used to be, I think this year is their best
year it's only a matter of time before the top advertisers will see the benefit of advertising here who knows this year we'll see the likes of Stakes or Duelbits making their way here, we only need one top casino to start their campaign here and many will follow its lead.

If more companies come in, the pay should get more competitive as everyone looks to capture the traffic.

The gambling section is more active now than it used to be, I think this year is their best
year it's only a matter of time before the top advertisers will see the benefit of advertising here who knows this year we'll see the likes of Stakes or Duelbits making their way here, we only need one top casino to start their campaign here and many will follow its lead.
We have seen 2 or 3 casinos here so far this year and all campaigns have ran short term campaigns. Part of the issue is they likely were not getting the sign ups they had hoped for which makes you wonder if the users here are all mainly hunting money or are there actual gamblers, hodlers, or traders on this forum? Are there users that will use a service or just users looking to make a dollar advertising?
Overall, I feel like we currently are a small forum that has loads of room to grow. It's not going to blow up over a months time, but slow and steady growth and by next year we might start seeing a bit more interest from companies looking to advertise. January is when this forum got a rebirth so to speak, let's see what the forum looks like after a year.

I think it is important to think in USD terms, not in BTC terms.
With that thinking most of the early adopters of Bitcoin sold all their coins.
You can use any math you want to make yourself feel bad when something is going down, but I won't do that by choice ;)
You could just have used your real life wage to buy more BTC each week...
Forum campaigns are NOT the same thing as dollar cost averaging, and in past most of them had only BTC value, not USD.
On top of that USD and all other fiat currencies are always going down in value, so $100 today is not the same as $100 few years ago.

The highest amount I earned from the signature campaigns was 0.15 per month, in 2019 it was about ~$1,600, and I sold it in 2021 at a price of 51k, so it was ~ $7,650 per month.
I believe in those times we could earn good income from signature campaigns even before the ban of mixers on Bitcointalk, some users were earning around $1000 per month from signature campaign but now, I don't think anyone is earning more than $500-$600 from signature campaigns per month even on Bitcointalk.
On this forum we used to have some good signature campaigns which have ended quite strangely. Who knows how things will turn in future, so far the only well performing campaign on this forum is that of Coinomize and a few others, I hope those will continue to be part of this forum for long term.
