Get completely free ICONOMI tokens — ICONOMI Bounties explained PART 2/2
This is the second part of my post https://medium.com/@ahmedjadoon/get-completely-free-iconomi-tokens-iconomi-bounties-explained-part-1-2-3ed834f988b0 explaining the ICONOMI.NET bounties.
2. Translations campaign
400,000 ICN are reserved for translations of ICONOMI’s official announcement thread at Bitcointalk. Currently, 34 translations are already submitted and I think you are late for this campaign as it’s already translated into all major languages.
Also I would like to point out that ICONOMI administration has been a little too generous in this translations campaign. If there are atotal 40 members to claim this 400,000 ICN then each one would get ~10,000 ICN = $600 approx. That’s a lot for 1–2 hours of job. They would’ve given it more thought.
3. Writing blogs
This one is my favorite. 300,000 ICN are going to be distributed among blog writers writing about ICONOMI. You can post your blog anywhere on the internet like Blogger or Steemit etc. I choose Medium.com, as I like it’s ease of use. The requirements for the blog posts are pretty basic. Your blog should be at least 1000 characters without spaces, should include at least 2 ICONOMI.NET links, and should be unique. You can use http://wordcounttools.com
There are currently 65 accepted blogs as of now. So, if we estimate that there are a total of 150 accepted blogs at the end of ICO then 300,000/150=2000 ICN for each blog post = $120 per blog post(as we have assumed 1 ICN=$0.06 at the end of ICO). This is a very conservative estimate and I believe it’s gonna be more. Isn’t it a great pay back for a very small blog post? And good thing is that one person can write more than one blogs. It’s my fourth one.
Just make sure you don’t copy/paste anything in your blog and try to write everything from scratch. Thousand characters isn’t a lot, you should be fine.
I always try to write 500+ words(~2500 characters/post) to be extra careful my post isn’t rejected but even if you write a brief but meaningful and unique blog, you should be fine.
Here are examples of my blogs which were accepted:

While this one was not accepted by ICONOMI team.

I think I quoted some text from ICONOMI’s thread, which they didn’t like. They prefer to see a 100% unique writing.
4. Facebook/Twitter Campaigns
Both Facebook and Twitter campaigns have 300,000 ICN each reserved for them. You just have to Follow/Like ICONOMI profiles on these social networks and then you will earn for every retweet in case of Twitter and every like/comment/share of ICONOMI’s posts in case of Facebook. You can read further details on their official post about bounties https://medium.com/iconominet/ico-bounties-ea2922888b85#.dsxcap91t
You can even connect your Twitter/Facebook accounts on your ico.iconomi.net account and get a real time estimate on how much ICN you are going to receive for your activity.
There have been many cases of spam/abuse especially in case of Twitter campaign. Many members were reportedly using fake Twitter accounts and bulk retweeting using bots. ICONOMI team has resolved to deal harshly with spammers.
I’d recommend that you only retweet maximum 2–3 tweets/hour and 8–10/day. Only RT those tweets which have valuable information for your followers. And never try to get fake followers for your Twitter account. Else you’ll be caught and you won’t be receiving any bounty for this campaign.
Conclusion: Overall, I would say that ICONOMI team has setup a very balanced and thoughtful giveaway. Except for translations bounty which is a little off mark, everything else seems perfect. Also they have shown resolve to deal harshly with abusers/cheaters.
Great job so far ICONOMI.NET
