Hello! I'm from the Philippines and I'm quite surprised of how many Filipinos are participants of that campaign, because to be honest, not a lot of people know about bitcoin in here. I live in Manila - which is supposed to be the most "advanced" city in my country - but even so, the number of people who know about cryptocurrency or that it even exists in this city is very low, even among teenagers and young adults. However, I guess it's not fair to assume that that's a result of multiaccounting. Just my two cents  Wink

When there is poverty people will do anything to make a living. Unfortunately some people either don't have the skills to learn how it works or lack the interest.

While they may not have heard of bitcoin - I can remember the pesobit craze last year which originated from the Philippines.
https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/pesobit/ A lot of people lost their savings.
Unfortunately people who haven't learned the pitfalls of crypto and follow bounties blindly often also fall victim to pump and dump and other scams.

Yet  -while there may be a lot of Filipinos chasing bounties - I would also like to point out that one of the top merited posters (theyoungmillionaire) on here is from the Philippines. (Probably some others too) Not only does he write good posts in English - he has also translated quite a few posts into Filipino.  Hopefully the knowledge he brings to the local board will convince some of others to get more seriously involved with crypto other than chasing bounties.


Being a bounty manager, I can confidently say that most of the bounty hunters are from Philippines/Indonesia/Ukraine/Africa. I rarely have come across participants with good English speaking skills or from other developed countries. Roughly estimating, 70% of my campaign's participants are from the Philippines.

There are a lot of people in the Philippines that speak a high level of English. A lot of call centers that service English speaking countries all over the world are based in the Philippines.
