The Ignition Coin Bounty Programs — Phase III

Ignition Coin
4 min readJun 1, 2018

--

A few months ago, we started an expansive bounty program to help develop the user-base and ecosystem around Ignition Coin. So far it has been a smashing success and almost every bounty has seen many participants.

Over 50 graphics have been submitted, at least 10 YouTube informational videos and tutorials, hundreds of cryptonaut members in discord (highly active users), dozens of bug fixes and many new, experienced developers have begun helping to improve and sustain the wallet and node codebase since the bounty programs began.

Our Phase III bounty system will be similar to our last phase, but improved and optimized. Some are removed that did not end up panning out to help the ecosystem. This phase will begin on June 1st.

IGNITION BOUNTY PROGRAM PHASE III

BOUNTY DETAILS

Wiki Submission Bounty

Have some useful information you think should be on the Wiki, or just want to fill in some gaps? Submit Wiki Entries via Discord or Github, and you can earn between 1–10 IC. For the submission to qualify, it must be new and relevant information that the wiki does not already contain. For larger than average entries, you can discuss a larger bounty with MrFixit in Discord.

You can find the wiki page here: https://github.com/ignitioncoin/ignitioncoin/wiki

Image & Video Submission

This program is designed to work very simply. You can submit any image or video you would like related to IC / Ignition, on a special channel in our Discord server, called #graphics-and-video-submissions. If any image is used in an official medium, such as advertisements, promos, official social media, etc., then you will earn a onetime reward per image of $50 in IC, however, any user that is not a team member, is free to modify or use the image to promote Ignition Coin, for free, with no limitations.

To Participate simply post your submission in the designated Discord Channel and place your IC address beneath it. You will be notified if the team uses your image.

Youtube Tutorials

Post a fully voiced and accurate tutorial on YouTube, and receive $20 in IC for the video, and an additional $5 every 500 views until 10,000 views! Videos that are not tutorials, and are marketing material or promotions, will still be considered for the image & video submissions.

To submit, post your video in the graphics and video submission channel in discord.

Bug Fixes and Improvements

Non-Critical bug-fixes: These are issues with the code (or issues on github issues) that are definitely bugs, but that do not have to be implemented as soon as possible — Each fix on Github via Pull Request is worth up to 25 IC.

Improvements — Present an accepted improvement via Pull Request on Github for up to 50 IC

Critical Issues — fix any serious issues (major exploit or something that could cause an exchange to de-list or network to become unstable/broken) and you will get up 150 IC.

Contact @Technium in discord if you have any questions, or would like to get a bounty quote on any specific improvement or fix. Otherwise, find our github here: https://github.com/ignitioncoin/ignitioncoin — and submit your Pull Request.

Website, White Paper, ANN Post Translations

Each Language needs a translation, each translated will receive $10 per translation.

To participate, find the #translations channel in our discord, check if the language you want to do is uploaded already, and if not, you can claim it for up to 1 week, and submit to the same channel.

Currently, we are only accepting white paper translations, soon, will accept full webpage ones as well.

Community Member of the Month — Each month the team selects one user based on an infinite number of factors that contribute to our community to become the community member of the month. This is not a one-time award, and can be earned several times, for those who continuously excel at community building activities.

Discord Level Up — If you rank up to Cryptonaut status, you will receive 1 Ignition Coin. Private message Mrfixit or Technium to claim this reward. Cryptonaut status is earned via activity in the Discord chat. This will last until 500 Cryptonaut ranked users are reached.

Ecosystem Development — Own a cryptocurrency ecosystem service or planning on creating an integration to Ignition Coin, such as in your store, your coin rankings site, mining pool, block explorer, etc.? Earn up to 150 IC in bounties after 1 month of the final ecosystem product being open to the public. Contact MrFixit or Technium in Discord if you have questions or to negotiate a fixed bounty reward.

Global Ambassador Bounty — If you are native to a country that does not speak English as the primary language and are a member rank or higher in Discord, you may qualify to become an Ambassador. This means you will become a moderator for the language-specific channel native to you, as well as set up an Unofficial Ignition Coin Twitter/Social Media account for the region and manage it. This bounty will pay $25 in IC for every month you remain active and dedicated as an ambassador.

Community Goals — Variable Rewards — In our discord, we set changing goals for the community as a whole to achieve, these goals are changing all the time, and when completed, large amounts of bounty rewards are distributed across the whole community inside discord. Be sure to check discord for news and goals!

Discord Rankings, Levels and Faucet — In addition to the bounties above, there is also a fair, 4-tiered ranking system surrounding our Discord Chat channel, Newbie, Member, Cryptonaut and Platinum, which give varying special features and extra faucet coins for being active in the chat.

We thank the community for their continued support and hope to grow together developing a powerful and robust cryptocurrency designed to store value, transact, and so much more.
