So, look at one thing, the weekly date for running the signature campaign, which is not paid even after it has ended, I think the kind of talk he is talking about is unreasonable. Because when he took the weekly payment from the project manager and also called it the escrow balance, he should have paid it as soon as the week ended. When the week ended, the price of Bitcoin was not very low, but it was in a fairly good position, yet he did not pay. His behavior is ruining his reputation as the signature campaign manager of the forum.
Another way to say it:
Since he told you that he is having trouble making payments due to the decrease in the price of BTC. If such an incident had happened, he could have made an announcement, the price of Bitcoin has decreased, so I have made the payment that can be made from the escrow balance. But the kind of talk he is talking about without making payments does not really seem acceptable to me.
This is nothing new, he had earlier conducted another campaign, I participated in that campaign. Did the same in that campaign, delaying payment for over a week after the week ended, even though he added +$1 for the delay. If he mentions that the payment funds are in escrow then I see no reason to delay. Yes, doing such a thing will ruin his reputation.
I think they expected a lot from this after running a campaign for a week, that's why they increased the payment so much. But they don't know or understand that nothing is possible from here so quickly. They have definitely come to a good platform for marketing, but nothing happens in such a hurry here. These issues are being discussed here, yet they haven't followed it.
You can't conquer the world in a week, you must do something long term to get good results. Maybe they didn't get the results they expected, they expected too much in one week. So they don't want to campaign for more than a week.
