Re: Cost of Bitcointalk Accounts.

I have this jr.member account with me (extra one)ehich I am thinking of selling .
I need 0.01 btc
do you think I can sell it for this amount?

member usually are sold for 0.05, so junior should be woth 0.01 at least while newbie is around 0.005 or less

you can try, but it also depend on the quality of your post

Newbies don't worth 0.005 and members don't worth 0.05 either. Newbies of 14 activity worth nothing, while those of 28 activity may worth 2-3mBTC. Members could worth 0.02-0.04 BTC, depending on their rank. Also Jr. Members could go for as cheap as 0.0044 (ref: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=992029.0), and is even cheaper than that of the price of newbies that you stated.

well i said it depend on the quality and the activity does matter but it isn't everything, i see newbies with +10 in trust, i'm sure that an account like that is worth more then 0.005

there is a guide to follow, but i like to give around 100k satoshi per activity, as a base price

The base price of 100k satoshis per activity point is only valid for Senior or above, or a newly created 14 activity newbie would worth 0.014 BTC (or $3) by this rule. However an account having low quality posts won't worth that price. And accounts having green trust and high quality posts will worth more than that (for Sr. or above).

yup, pricing accounts by activity alone just won't cut it. so I made some rough calculation based on the prices I see in the market (I was very bored Tongue

)

this is the formula: {a} x 0.0005 x {r} x {p} + {t} =

Code:

{r}ank modifier:
Jr. Member: 0.1
Member: 0.5
Full Member: 1.0
Sr. Member: 1.4
Hero Member: 2.0
Legendary: 10.0

Code:

{p}ost quality modifier:
bad: 0.8
normal: 1.0
good: 1.1

add 0.01BTC for every {t}: -x / +x points. (still needs some work on this one).

so this will make a good quality poster full member account with 150 activity and neutral trust worth 0.0825BTC.

or make a bad quality poster Sr. Member account with 300 activity and 5: -x / +x trust worth {300 x 0.0005 x 1.4 x 0.8 + 0.05 = 0.21800BTC}

man, I'm awesome

Man, you're awesome.

I don't agree with your prices though. Good quality Full Member value at least 0.135BTC (0.9 mbtc x activity)
300 activity Senior Member should worth 0.33BTC (1.1 mbtc x activity)
