I decided to end these 7-day bans early. Altcoin giveaways involving incentivized posting are not allowed anywhere on the forum, but certain incentivized-posting games (not altcoin giveaways) are allowed in Games & Rounds.
Slightly off-topic (but not worth a new thread): would you consider updating the altcoin giveaway rules? I imagine those rules were made when many worthless altcoins were spamming the forum (kinda like the current bounty threads), but if someone is giving away some real value of an established altcoin
that can be exchanged for Bitcoin, shouldn't that be allowed?
It's going to be tough to set a minimum, and there's going to be border cases, but the minimum could be for instance worth $50 or 0.01
BTC. There are currently topics (such as
this one) with thousands of posts for a $250 giveaway. It's in Bitcoin, so it's allowed, but it's clearly a thread nobody is going to read.
So:
shouldn't for instance a 40,000 Dogecoin giveaway be allowed too?
