I bring another campaign from Bitget 🔥
A platform doesn’t make it to 8 years without its users sticking around.
For this anniversary, Bitget is launching the Alliance Program, giving back 30% of a month’s worth of trading fees to its users.
It’s also adding 8th-anniversary mystery box vouchers and a faster payout process, so you get rewards every 3 days.
The Alliance Program prize pool is 30% of one month of platform fee revenue, estimated at over 10M USDT.
Trade or hold at least 100 USDT and you’re in automatically. There's no additional step needed. 60% of the prize pool is distributed based on trading and the remaining 40% by assets. Meet both conditions to claim both rewards.
There’s also a new 8th-anniversary mystery box voucher airdrop. Each payout round (once every 3 days) triggers one mystery box, which includes Earn APR boost vouchers, futures position airdrop vouchers, grid position airdrop vouchers, or GetAgent 30-day Plus/Ultra trial passes.

@OptimusVfx@TTTMarkets This is very very terrible.
This is why I so much hate sending samples for cold outreaches!
Be like na to start sending as view once cos I don't understand.
This is so disgusting!
Designers are going through a lot! 😕
Happy Taco Tuesday, folks! 🌮
To you founders, 🧵
I came across a project on the TL, went through their profile, and noticed they were building something strong. But you know what many projects overlook? The visual aspect of their branding.
Visuals play a huge role in how people perceive your project and can give you an edge over competitors.
So, I went ahead and pitched my design services to this prediction market project, @TTTMarkets .
We discussed the pricing and reached an agreement. But before proceeding, he asked me to create a design so he could see how it would turn out.
He sent over the write-up and brand assets, and I got to work.
After completing the design, we made a few adjustments, and he complimented me on the work. He then asked about my years of experience, and we had a brief discussion before he said he would speak with his team.
He asked me to give him a couple of days.
A few days later, I followed up, and he told me they had noticed their current design was clearer and cheaper.
But here’s where things get interesting.
The guy took my design, fed it into AI, and used it to rework the concept.
Imagine putting your time, creativity, and effort into a project, only to have your work used this way without proceeding with the agreed deal.
This is exactly why designers are becoming more cautious about doing unpaid sample work.
@TTTMarkets , this isn’t cool. You can do better.
I’m calling on you to take down the design that was delivered from your page
Designers deserve respect for their time, creativity, and intellectual effort.

@OptimusVfx@TTTMarkets@TTTMarkets This is actually awful to do.
Consider the designer time, creativity, and energy spent to bring up the design and he even trusted you guys only for you to play the other way round...
someone came to me and asked if i could help him design something for their brand campaign/ad and i said sure.
he sent the brand details and shi, i told him how much i charge for the job and he said it's too much and said i should run a sample first so he can confirm if it aligns with what they want.
i told him no, respectfully, that i don't do samples first and that I'd rather take upfront after we've come to a conclusion.
he's someone i respect and i just told him that if he shouldn't doubt my work because he's literally seen lots of my designs and i still went ahead to send him my portfolio link.
he said he'll get back to me, unfortunately he didn't.
lowk it pained me because i was down bad at the time but i just had to decline the "sample first" option because of issues like this..
it is well sha.
