Isn't it so unfair for the people who is new here? That will be struggling making such as good quality post so they could be given a merit by someone. I know all of you is having a hard time thinking what are you going to post such as good quality.
It is really hard to have a merit it is because as far as I know:
People are selfish. Even though you post a really good quality post still there is a people who won't give you a merit.
Some are alone. Like me, I don't really have much friend who would give me a free merit. I know that it is easy to have a merit with a friend that have an account of bitcointalk.
My question is. Why still need merit? We are still struggling to rank because of the merit.
You should be happy that you are alone here. If you had a friend and he gave you a merit just because of this reason, both of you might have got red trust.
It is funny to read about your discussion, today the merit is getting more and more high because people have developed very good trust about bitcoin, so they are investing very high so with time it is increasing the merit very high, those who are treating bitcoin as an asset but with gradually they will find bitcoin as high merit currency, price will be high and you will get fast profit from it, it is the need of the time to get involve crypto currency because if you will not dot this then after that you will lose the chance and your surrounded people will get more profit than you.
