What is the worst bounty you have ever participated in? Why was it the worst for you?

blocklancer.. devs announced on last summer, then failed. now they are trying to grab a punch from ico trends.

There is a Bounty manager company called "AmaziX". If they hold the bounty i stay the fuck away. They are very bad at english, they cannot really communicate what they mean. Other then that they are knowned to change rules after the ICOs are finished, without explaination.

Monkey Business MNY was the worst, I am happy I did not enter their ICO. They sent Coeval to their ICO participants before the crowdfunding ended, price went up more than 1000USD, then fell to 5 usd in 1-2 days. They sent bounties to the participants after 3 months when the price was under 1 dollars. They are fired from the Wavesplatform, bounty manager left the bounty and sent screenshots fo messages between the founder, etc etc It was nightmare

HIVE PROJECT-worst bounty in which I participated, took part from the very beginning to the end of the company, did all the activities, the accounts met all the requirements. And they just did not pay me. Support did not respond to messages. But other participants received their award, although there were many who did not receive it.

That's weird. I participated in several bounty campaigns moderated by Amazix, and I have never face such issues.

UAHPAY was one of the worst bounties I ever have seen. They didn't payout to a lot of people in their bounty. Typical scam coin.

It was called CARTAXI. Obciously it was succesful ICO, they reached soft cap. But it was bad for bounty hunters, bounty was decreased in several times at the finish of ICO. That was so sad for me.

I've just entered Bitcointalk BBS, and I haven't met what you've said, and it's a lot less risky to choose a successful ICO project.

aeron was my was bounty was supposed to get 2000 this guys slashed it to 3oo saying that paying 2000 to bounty hunters is too much . but it was the intial agreement, am still pissed over it now

And now do you participate in their companies? They last week changed the rules instead 4 reposts a day there is 4 reposts a day and there must an hour between your reposts another way it does not count. And if you participating in several their companies it begins to annoing you.

I joined the bitchamp where campaign participants received 5500 coins and the managers received 13,000 coins. I can not imagine that managers get more than 3 times our coin.

I think SISA was one of such a disappointing ICOs I have participated if not the most disappointing. After all the hard work of bounty participants SISA blatantly refused to pay. Haven't had much of such experience and don't hope to experience suchkind of treatment again.

People, how do you select projects to participate in bounties? Do you analyze the project before entering the bounty? Several months I am trying to find only the best ICOs thinking that even I get less token the token price will grow fast after end of ico. Do a research before participating ...

Atlant bounty campaign is the worst of them all.
The ICO raised a million dollar. the campaign manager was computing the stakes once every 2 weeks for 8 campaign before distributing the bounty.
until now it is not finish.

I've been involved with AmaZiX with a couple of bounties and I've not had any problems whatsoever. They answer queries promptly and record stakes as at when due. When did you have problems with them?

PS: I don't work for them ;)

I participated in their airdrop and did not receive my tokens. Then I knew that they're not as transparent as I thought they would be. Glad I did not participate in the bounty.

Its normal if manager receive more than bounty hunter it self, cause he work lot more harder. He create Ann thread, bounty thread, submit your report etc.

And for the OP questions, im happy that i never join the bounty that have trouble, all my campaign work fine so far and ill hope it will be like that in the future bounty.

Its sad to see cartaxi here...Yes I have participated in the campaign but they reduced the bounty rewards after the ICO because it didn't reach the hard cap. Paying the same amount of bounty mentioned in the thread would have been a big disaster because it isn't fair for investors and they would've hit by a big drop.

So many Ico's that are scam and doesnt want to pay the bounty participants. This is why it needs to thoroughly search the most and best ico. Ive heard Sisa was not good in Ico so better indeed to verify first before joining.

I agree with you. However managers will get more coin than bounty hunters as we will be x2 i think x3 is too high.

spheris became one of the worst bounty for me, because with 20 post rules every week the token sale only runs on 121 ETH for 3 weeks it's not very good and i decided not to continue.

Haven't taken part in any bad bounties so far, but was contemplating on participating in the Blocklancer bounty but the bounty thread seemed very sketchy so I stayed away. Thank goodness, as I see a lot of people complaining about it.

I aint yet joining bounties,but to what i am reading here bounty is more complicated to what ive read in the forum.

the worst bounty compaign was indorse. imagine a legendary member earning like 200$ for 2 months of work.

The worst bounty is startmining with STMG token. No information after finished, I think the ICo failed, the dev not got enough investment. The best  bounty is PPT and dentacoin. I earn reward for dentacoin morethan 5 million tokens. Now worth 20000 USD. it is a great bounty.

I heard ATLANT manager wasn't able to pay you. They scammed your money so be alert on the campaign he/she managing. Cartaxi also isn't able to pay the participants. As of now, I didn't encounter worst bounty campaign.

Me neighter. I am in like five or six bounties which are managing by this team, as I see, they working so fine. Yes they have strict rules, bu if you follow them, you success.
About worst bounties, I can say white rabbits and ignite ratings.

No need to mention the name because it's so unethical. All you have to do is to make an research about the campaign or don't hesitate to ask the pioneer people here to get some information about the company.

I guess my worst Bounty is that i didn't Buy any coin till now  ::)

many bountys don't make clear introductions & rules how to participate in a bounty also in twitter bountys, many bounty managers are not able to care for the spreadsheet of a bounty.....thats really annoying

I just started joining projects and I'm really hoping my efforts will not be wasted. Well, I have faith in my choice. I always make sure to read more from their website, and it's actually good. So, I hope it would succeed.

The one I experienced just this last month. I really don not know what happened to that. Bitsynch. Instead of paying out I dont know what updates there is on that project. It has updated its spreadsheets but nothing came in.

I do here many bounty campaign managers not sticking to their initial offers after accepting the work from hunters, the only bounty campaign i know that 100% scammed was Ethbooks.

the worst project in which I participated is the trackr, because this project did not pay me at all, they simply changed topic s and did not say that, and when I saw it it was too late

swarm , change, cartaxi the payment they give is too small compared for the time duration you given to promote thier ICO . but much worst for me is egaas after a year tyou cant still trade the coin because its not listed in exchnage even in etherdaelta .

I've joined so many useless bounties when I was just starting out and no campaigns would accept me because of my forum rank. The worst kind is the bounty that demands so much from you (for example more than 35+ posts per week, posts must be 45 minutes apart), but then in the end disappears and never pays you. Sometimes people are so desperate to make money that they lose so many other opportunities to make more.

I do not have enough experience on different bounty, I think the sether bounty is nice since the bounty manager can answer different questions quickly and update the stakes in time.

Haha, it is not that complicated. Just do your research before you participate in one. Be sure it is a coin you believe will have a future, then go to their bounty thread and check out the bounty manager. See how he/she handled bounties in the past (if there are any), then if it all checks out, join it.

My worst bounty is morai, they earn a lot of money from their ico. And for bounty ive been working there for almost a month and wasted my time there to get nothing.in addition, i bought some coin to them in their ico. Those toxic people give me the worst bounty ever

I experience first hand how unhelpful some of the people in amazix are. I understand that they can change the rule. But some people don't check the thread everyday, so you are penalised for not following new rules.

Furthermore, totally unprofessional by telling people to not join the bounty because they don't like the new rules, as there will be many other who would join.

Future projects please don't engage Amazix anymore.

there are some, but i will not say its ico. I think it has become a risk for the bounty hunter. the most important for the bounty hunter, improve quality and multiply a lot of knowledge about crypto.

I do not have much experience in participating in bounty companies, but in those that are currently involved, not everything is going well. Managers stop guiding the thread in the forum. Do not answer the questions in the telegram channel.

Hi all. The worst company bounty is CarTaxi, they collected a lot of money on ICO, but not paid...

The project Tagilcoin was the worst for me. Began to participate in it due to inexperience. Disgusting SCAM. I hope to me it will never happen again.

There are quite a few like SISA, Startima. SISA did not pay and scammed even the campaign manager. Startima cancelled their project and the bounty. It is the risk you have to take when joining bounty campaigns.


Yeah, I heard this one but it is not the cartaxi's fault. the campaign manager scammed the participant by changing eth address of some. But it did not go well with cartaxi and the ones suffering the most are the investors.

Till now there have been many experiences with me both bad and good, and i have been practising the bounties and other campaigns for a very long time of period. But if you are asking for the worst then i would say that i had experienced the worst ICO name like SISA where we the participants didn't got our payment after participating in their campaign. I had researched from my side also and i checked that whether is there any mistake from our side but i was sure that we were right and infact even after being correct we didn't got our payment.

My worst experience  in bounty is with WWAM which i did signature for 6 weeks for them and despite hitting their hard cap of 500 Ether did not pay anybody and uptill now there is no update.  It was bad.

those in which the bounty managers turned out to be scammers ...

Bitjob was the worst bounty. For 2 month of participating in FB and TWT companies I earned 8$  >:(

I did not have a bad bounty campaign yet, i just started to take part in them.

Not the worst but even the most stupid - ETH Books. It was great. They just collected their cap and just disappeared. Even deleted the official accounts on Facebook and Twitter. Something like a fun. I just participated in the Bounty campaign. Will remeber them always))))))

I must say that UAHPAY was the worst campaign I've been involved in. They made a lot of people believe in the project and I even saw a lot of media news about the project, but the problems started during the distribution of the tokens especially when it was listed on the coinmarketcap. Soon after their ICO finished, they dumped all their tokens on etherdelta and tried to blame the 'third party'.

dont lose  hope it might rise.thesame thing happen to me with genesis vision .for 2 months of stressful facebook and twitter posting and sharing i got 4 token each valued at 2 dollars .today less than amonth after hitting exchanges its has risen to 34 dollars per token.thats about 300 dollars

C it was fake and scam, good things I haven't involved too much in them only a few weeks .. the moment I sense something is not right, they're not responding and I found out later they don't have spread sheet.. many are complaining in them, others are angry... I don't know its just that there lots of them everywhere counterfeiting the real ones, if your'e not that keen enough to distinguished the genuine or legit from the fake ones or scam.. you will also get victimized.

I have just started to participate in bounties so I can´t tell many experiences but some days ago I participated in one where I was going to win 300USD but the soft cap wasnt reach so I just lost my time. It was pretty bad but at least I just lost 1 week.

Wow this is a great and i have not experienced any bad bounty but i have seen bad leaderships in bounties

Bitjob was not that bad. They stated their rules and what we would get even before we joined.

I guess it has become part of the risk for the bounty hunter. bad or good, is the decisive end result. yes I admit, some projects that I follow. has no sale value after reward is distributed. but the rest there is also a great reward.

I haven't had a lot of money yet, but I have no problem with the reward, and will pay the reward on time.

From my experience i can say that the Cartaxi bounty campaign is the worst. I've participated to their bounty campaign for almost 3 months to only get 2500 CTX which is only 100 USD.

I've been in a lot of bad bounty, so I will not mention it. but I was very disappointed when it happened. hopefully will not be trapped again in that.

Actually it's better than nothing as they also need to calculate their budget for maximize their advertising project
I think all bounty are great if you really interest for the project but just like old time, always becareful for massive and unlogical promo for ICO

Could you yell why you have such issues with Lisk? Why do you think its spam? I'm considering buying and holding long term.

Even bounty managers do not help matters sometimes. They fail to update spreadsheets as at when due. At least regular spreadsheet updates would make one know he's doing something, at least ;D

"C project" that bounty paying in Bitcoin  but ask participant to doing job for 2 weeks to get paid, and its turning to scam !  >:(

As long as the ICO ends the crowdfunding, the general ICO team will pay the reward, and if the crowdfunding is not completed, they may not give you altcoin.

The worst bounty I had participated in was Qvolta's bounty campaign. It was waste of time. Worked a lot for it's promotion but got only $30.

I joined the bounty Alloy program. I participated for few months. but this project is no clarity at all. when the bounty program is completed, many members did  not get the reward. there are the hundreds of members who participated, only some members who get that reward.

Crystal clear services is the worst for me. The bounty manager always make mistake counting weekly post and I almost always need the make myself like a fool and plead to him/her just to rectify his mistakes. When I thought that was the worst part, comes the token distribution.

My worst bounty was fidcom.I do all the requirements.I do weekly reports.Comply all my requirement from the start to the end but they did not pay me.

I have participated some bounty campaign that are totally worst to me, because they did not pay ever and if pay the bounty token but the dont run the project  and there is no market of that coin . these are masknetwork, bitcad platform , on_place etc .

spheris, because at first I believe that the project is very good and has great potential in the future, but the result is not as I imagine

Many, most aren't paying at all. Damn liar.

What is "C" was the worst bounty for sure. That was a scam from the beginning but creator was singing so brilliant and promised to pay good bounty with BTC https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2494912.2060. He scammed too much people from this forum, I hope he died already.

" C " Bounty was the worst bounty campaign that i had participated in. A Big SCAM. The bounty manager is " Ehrhc ", with a Full Member rank. No wonder he had a Red Trust -16 : -4 / +0. Nobody was payed. The worst part of this all, was that he had fooled us during the Christmas time. Luckily for me, i was scammed only by 8 posts. I fully empathized with  those he scammed for 3 weeks hard work. He should be banned for life here.

I have a bad experience so far with the bounty company BitRoad and Rpay
The companies have stopped and it seems that no one will pay anything

In general, now I participate in this project and everything is fine, the stakes are ditributing to the account. although it needs to see what will happen next with it. and on the topic, every bounty will be bad if the devs don't pay for the work

I can't believe so many fell for the C project. That was so incredibly vague... What was it even about? Something about just believing in the project, and you expected to get free Bitcoin for that?

I also participated in Project C and I realized that it was not possible to get bitcoin so easily, so I retired very early. Be sure to carefully analyze the bounty project you intend to participate in because you can only receive rewards when the project is successful and the strategy is in place. I hope those who participate in the bounty campaign will always succeed and receive a reward.

Combicoin company paid very poor for the bounty. Participated in twitter campaign for two months and got only 0.55 TRIA tokens = $5.

Please how true is this statement. I'm currently in most bounties managed by the company. Also can you suggest good bounty managers so that I can always look out for their bounties?.

I fell for that for 3 weeks. Thats bad, I could have made some other ICO. C is the wort bounty.

I just joined bounty program and i am yet to conclude my first bounty hunting. I must confess that it requires a lot to be successful in bounty program. I think researching about the project and the problem it intends to solve is very important.

My worst bounty i joined is Uahpay i thought i can sell that coin for atleast $1 but seems the company has no updates i will hold this for long until it will have a value..

It's the bitroad bounty LoL. The bitroad manager didn't get in touch with the bounty community, that's so bad!
And now, it has been paused LoL

I may say that the worst bounty that i have joined for is the bounty that where in i give all my best and this bounty take for nothing i would never tell here what bounty is that but i am aware on that.

Yes please tell us guys. Since i am a newbie, i can't join almost nothing :)

I consider projects that deceive bounty hunters to be bad projects, because it turns out that developers are deceiving their bounty hunters, which means they can easily deceive investors, I have such an opinion.

The worst bounties are those who managed by atriz and lauda. They act like they are an expert in posting. They should post that they require professional writers in every bounty they managed. Unlike yahoo which is more tolerant and the best manager.

I'm sorry to disappoint you. I don't think that UAH token will ever have any value again.
It was a SCAM from the very beginning. :(

Never experienced such things, but I guess you should do deep research before participating in bounty. Also if you meet bounty manager that you like - stick to him!

Well the worst bounty will be the "What is C?" bounty program there are so many users out there that not getting their payments in 1st week until the final week of the bounty one of the pathetic scams i've ever encounter

I don't have many experience on bounty  i just joined a bounty and im hoping that this bounty will become successful so that i can never experience what worst bounty is.

First, a disclaimer: this is not to say that the projects are bad. I am only referring to the bounties as regards the proceeds that I got from them.

I think as far as my memory serves me right, the second to the worst bounty that I participated in was Shadow. I think the project is good. The bounty was ran by Sylon and it was smoothly managed and everything was great. What made it bad was that I only got a very very small amount of bounty. I was a Sr. Member already and I made 20 posts a day. And until now I am still holding my SHDW tokens and there was no significant increase of its value.

The worst was Gravio. The team was probably hardworking and dedicated. The project is still functioning until now and I think it still has a future. But there must be something wrong with the way they handled the bounty stuff. My GIOs until now are almost worthless. The worse was that the stakes were given per post, an invitation to spam.

It's called C project that i'm participate for 1 month and waiting it too long never get paid. And now manager got 16 red trust. LOL

I also noticed that this blocklancer bounty was failed at the first stage.
The bounty also run very long time and make us wasting time to do our job. Its like investing time into that bounty is wasting.

sad i'm participate this project too and I know this guys,manager username is Ehrhc he got a lot red trust from lauda.

i think not yet, but joined the best bounty campaign that i ever joined, it is XUC, i can't decide what project that good to pick, that is why sometime i ask my friend what good signature to join and discuss it

Also DropDeck changed the conditions at the end of the bounty campaign. Now all the participants who received their DDD coins should change them to PIN coins. After two months of participating in the twitter bounty, earnings were less than $ 5.

It was Prymex because it's most likely a scam. They just want to milk investors and I am sorry for advertising such a messed up project. I just don't have much time back then to research on it that's why.

Here is its link though: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2204910.0;topicseen

I took part in not such large number bounty campaigns, about 25. A basic reason because of which some campaigns disappointed me it a failure of the ICO, than the reward size. But I refer these failures to risks which accompany such methods of investments and earnings. Also it is final, it is necessary to understand also own fault: badly carried out analysis at a stage of studying of the project with bounty campaigns

I did not join in a lot of bounties, the worst for now is the Spectiv VR since the rewards are not distributed though the ICO was over several weeks ago.

The worst bounty Ive ever participate is MOIRAI this bounty is literally a scam after they get the investment of people who invested the Dev goes run without knowing it. Its a shame i campaigned a scam bounty im wearing their signature over a months and they failed us the money has taken away. Karma has no deadline be prepared MOIRAI scam.

Im just join two bounties so far, work good for me. But some of my friend warn me about an ass bounty manager who just count stakes whatever he want and pay the bounty participant month after the bounties end, i know some bounty have rule like that to prevent bounty hunters from dumping the token. but the token allready at the manager and dev say sent it to participant but the manager refuse with a thousand reason about he sick or busy.

I participated in Centra card bounty almost close to payment period spreadsheet could not be found but payment were selective. Till now I have not received my bounty payment. Too bad.

The worst bounty in my opinion is that later it will be a scam. It would be hard for me to realize that I was part of this fraud, though not deliberately, advertising this shit. So far I was lucky and I did not get on such projects. But if this happened, it would be very difficult for me morally.

The worst bounty is scam projects that doesn't even press tokens.
Second one is scam projects that have tokens but don't have any market and buy order. They basically worth nothing.
Third one is scam projects that press tokens but don't release bounty for various reasons or no reason at all.
Fourth one is projects that drop immediately after ICO or bounty token release.
I hope you don't fall any of them. :)

I have participant in so many ICO,s that did not succeed and some paid token and nothing is been hard by them again ,some succeed and  scam investors.But all the same life goes on.

With my experience in bounties, the worst ICO I have participated in is srg bounty. They had to go offline to complete the ICO because they could not reach their hardcap.The fate of participants is still unknown

I participated in Mirocana. After ico they changed their rules and decreased bounty rewards in 20 times! I got about 90$ in their tokens) People got 100$ for signature. They participated for 2 month.

For me the worst bounty I did is Qvolta they did give me the reward.It would be hard for me to realize that I was part of this fraud.

My worst bounty project is Ambrosus. They collected a lot of money, very few bounty hunters took part, but many were not paid.

Centra they have never paid me and many others bounty hunters, a total scam

Uhub! It was worst because its a scam and my first time. I had a big expectation but in the end nothing happen,it is a kind of putting hope in the air.

The worst reward is her absence. You worked, but didn't get anything. In this case, you start to wonder, but is it worth it at all? I am glad that such cases are rare.

This is very weird accusation. I've worked in some of their projects. They handle things professionally, and I don't recall them changing rules after the campaign finishes apart from recently they were forced to introduce KYC for bounty participants. I've had chat with them several times and they provided me the help I needed. Don't try to diminish someone's reputation because only you had a bad experience with them.

"Dovu" yes the worst campaign I ever attended was Dovu. The award distribution took too long and they did not give me half of the prizes
