I don't think there's something necessarily wrong with gaining some income from Bitcointalk. I mean, both of us are in signature campaigns, aren't we?
Lol, what a way to put it. A hypocritical statement brought to light. Well the thing is, every one is here to gain something especially the finance and then, the information aspect serves to ensure we better protect that which we have, to protect our crypto-ecology ecology from the many societal elements that seeks to destroy it due to it's decentralized nature and for upgrades of our field.
The information aspect is emphasized to ensure users don't abuse the system and see it to be solely earning oriented. So yes, you can earn here but, you've got to know about what you what to earn, how to go about it and how to protect what is earned and our unique crypto-ecology as crypto enthusiast that we claim to be.
