Do you agree that Bounty needs KYC?

In my opinion only, I will agree with this policy to avoid multiple accounts or the use of other accounts in bounties. If it has this policy it will be fair to investors and to bounty participants. Scams can be reduced to a bounty. Dumpers can also be reduced.

What is your Opinion?
Free comment.

That is right bounty that has KYC requirements lessen and reduces those people who is just wanting to take advantage to others. This is really good idea for us to avoid many circumstances to get scammed. It always gives equal opportunity to all the bounty hunters out there to get more earning.

This idea is not very practical. How can you trust the bounty manager with your KYC documents? How can you be sure that he will not steal your ID information and use it elsewhere? IMO, having a Sr.Member level bitcointalk account is enough proof that you are serious about crypto.

The money from the bounty hunter is not big, so it is not necessary to force KYC. Many people do not want to do bounty just because that project catches KYC.

IMO, KYC is not necessary for bounty campaigns because KYC's mission is to avoid manipulating ICO Token purchase. With the bounty campaign, the number of Token paid to members accounts for less than 10% of the total Token sold, so KYC is unnecessary.

This is a very big injustice because bounty hunters do not buy anything at all and are not participants in the deal, which is between investors and developers, so this is definitely not right, it is necessary to take a decision on this issue.

for me as a bounty hunter, i don't usually like KYC for the bounties because for me KYC is only need for verification for the people who invested or investors in the project. This step helps them secure and know the customers well.

How much do you think your KYC value? Do you think that the bounty you get are worth selling out your KYC? This is a trade-off process. At least I think most of the bounties don't have the value you think. Your KYC will become very cheap.This is an unfair deal！

My opinion is both positive and negative thoughts of KYC because it is avoid the multiple accounts in this forum and our data will be misused in anytime so it is not a secure way to avoid the scammers. All the areas are not a perfect team some scammers are possible so we should face the consiquence in any platform then it will make success in future.

For me the essence of Crypto is to protect someones privacy and personal information.
The Anonymousity that it offers benefits us all. Having Transaction without sharing information is one of the key point of crypto.
So for me, sharing Information through KYC is a bit far from what i see crypto is.
And Secondly, KYC are for customers. And Hunters are not (unless they invested), We are promoters.
So i deeply disagree with KYC for Hunters.

Although I agree that the bounty thread needs KYC is a good thing.
However, at present, there is no third-party verification procedure for KYC, so our KYC data cannot be well preserved at present.

I am always with reducing the multiple account and cheating in bounty. But not by providing my personal ID to someone I don't know.
There are many ways to prevent cheating other than asking for IDs.

Thats not what for they use the KYC. It is used when there is technical sale that occurs in the reality and thats when they need to track the customer details. Im not sure if thats really applicable to the bounty participants. I mean in case of bounty participation its just that we work for them and they pay us in terms of token for our time and efforts. Thats not considered as sale technically. So may its unfair to ask about it to the bounty participants. If they want overcome the spam then bounty managers are already smart enough for that.

The majority of bounties that has already applied KYC requirement is to defend their project from the regulators. I can say they should be compliance to avoid any problem with the regulators in the future and that's it. Because i have seen this has been discussed in so many times about that.

the only bounty they just ask kyc to find out is whether their account is true or not because there are many bounty hunters in the head who want to replace the eth address of bounty participants for them they will get in bounty so much it's good to have kyc but also the ugly kyc is that other participants have no valid id to claim their reward

Bounty projects depend on bounty managers, to prevent users from multiple accounts. There are positive and negative in KYC. thanks to all opinion here i appreciated that.

I think we're talking about something that doesn't really exist. Who believes that your identity information is really kept secret? We have to transfer our data to so many places that they are no longer a secret. There is no point in refusing to participate in the ICO because of the KYC requirement.

I totally disagree with KYC for bounties, as it´s not coming together with AML. And as far, as I know - KYC is done because of AML

We are not customers and do not invest any money, so no one needs us to ask of source of this money, so there could´t be any question about money laundering.

KYC - to protect from multiple bounty accounts - too complicated and expensive

I believe person which want to cheat will find a way to cheat even with KYC, they can use fake documents. I dont think bounty needs KYC, we are not customers.

 I strongly oppose the KYC requirements in a certain campaign because aside of being a decentralized community, it may be used to another purpose that can ruin our personality.

It's hard choice. Actually i'm between yes and no.
 Why yes? because as you said, it can reduced/prevented from scammer who using multiple accounts.
Why no? Because i believe there are lot of people who don't want give their real ID and stay as annonymous just like why bitcoin was created.

I agree that it can help to reduce multiply account to join that bounty. Also it will make fewer people which join it. But before that, I have to ensure that the project aren't SCAM and will not abuse our personal information.

I dont like the idea of KYC in bounty because we are not customer to begin with. Also i'd love to protect my identity to the risk of hackers here in crypto. However i love the idea of it that lessen the multi account user and dumpers however it is still unfair for teen bounty hunters out there that dont have any government issued at the moment.

If you think KYC is what will stop multiple accounts registration for bounty program the question would be why do I need KYC to support a project? Because bounty is usually attached to campaigns. There are other efficient ways to stop multiple account registration in fact KYC (Know Your Customers) is not really meant for such but rather for company-customer relationship.

In my opinion, it is good if kyc is introduce to bounty participants fake entry and multiple account will reduce i use to against it then but i see reason why kyc is good for hubters.

For me, giving information like accounts or anything about yourself is not a solution to reduce scams or dumpers. Bounty participants like us would not trust anyone with our KYC information, there are so many ways nowadays to steal anyone's account so I can't agree with your opinion.

  I think it depends on the projects because sometimes trusted managers make a promise that it will be deleted right away as the project ended, as I said managers that garnered a 100% trust from the hunters, and I know we had plenty of them.

Moreover, you have to be sure where you give your identity details away. Some scam ones are gonna sell your identity and you could have bad surprise in the near future. I don't want to scare people, but pls research it's legit before you do it.

No, I won't do it if you need a reward for KYC. You have to make sure that your personal information is safe. People sell the information that will collect you. So it's safe for privacy. I will refuse to do any reward for KYC.

I personally disagree with the opinion that bounty hunters should participate in kYC because it breaches the security of the individual. It also go against the principle of anonymity which Satoshi Nakamoto proposes with the blockchain. However there are other means of checking scams apart from KYC which bounty managers can implement.

I agree with what you conveyed in this discussion. it is true there are many farmers in this forum in various campaigns. maybe KYC is one to prevent things as you say.

My problem with KYC for bounties is what sort of guarantees are there that personal information will be kept secure. If you ask people in the EU for this information you are required by law to meet the GDPR standards. I think that companies asking for this information should be required to complete an audit that their security procedures and systems meet these standards.

Perhaps it is time for such measures, although it is very difficult at the stage of bounty to determine how popular the project will be and whether to trust it with their personal data is a very difficult moment and I do not even know how to act exactly. But the number of double accounts is so boring that it is probably time to go to the measures stronger than Merit.

This is a more effective control method for issuing currency. It should have been done long ago. Multiple accounts and spamming have affected the development of certain Tokens and hinder the good environment. Only in this way will it be easier to remove malicious people, but This is not the most effective method. After KYC, there will be a lot of fake people involved. In the end, more processing methods should come from developers how to deal with it and make everything fair.

It still doesn't matter though. They can fix it by just registering names of someone and its fix, they can then have to tokens. Why bother to have KYC implemented on bounties. Its those who bought on ICO dashboard that should have been required to fill the data and provide IDs because they did send some USD to buy the tokens which they should show where their funds are from.

I do not like this. There are many ways to fight fraud in the bounty campaign. Not necessarily KYC.

I think that there should be less radical mechanism to avoid multiple accounts. Some people do not like to post anywhere their documents. Or we need a special trusted KYC service that can be connected to any ICO project, so it will no longer be necessary to pass KYC. Just one time.

Actually I am not in favor of this comment. This thought isn't exceptionally down to earth. How might you confide in the abundance administrator with your KYC archives? How might you make sure that he won't take your ID data and utilize it somewhere else? Bitcoin talk account is sufficient evidence that you are not kidding about crypto.

Well, many investors think that the bounties do not require KYC. the coins acquired from bounties are so less in no., that KYC is not really needed. A decision should be taken on this issue.

I really don't agree with the KYC in the bounty programs. But what else can we do if the projects requires it? Maybe all we can do is to obey what the requirements is in order to receive out rewards.

While it is obvious KYC is going to have some advantages, the disadvantages are simply too great, the whole point of cryptocurrencies was to avoid all of this bureaucratic processes, now that icos are doing the same a bank is doing then I have no interest to invest in them and I'm sure there are many users that think like that, so if icos want to do that they can keep their useless tokens for themselves.

I completely disagree with this opinion, since given the fact that most ICO is a Scam, it is not worth presenting your data to them! Your data can be used, is it worth considering?!

KYC is good but what would happen if manager sell it? there are many good manager here but there are also bad manager and they will take advantage of this. for those dumpers they either sell it because they need money or they sell it because the price is high then after that it gets lower everyday.

Excuse me, KYC for reduced dumpers? I do not think it makes sense.
That is the financial factors, why some people sell tokens that they get from a bounty. Does it have anything to do with KYC?

---

I do not agree if I as bounty participants have to complete KYC. Because I am afraid my personal data is being misused!

And why do you really believe that KYC can reduce and can avoid the multiple accounts in bounties? Do you have the same thoughts as me? KYC and other complementary documents could have been manipulated by bounty participants. I am sure, they can do it.

So in my opinion, KYC is not the best solution to avoid multiple accounts in bounties, reduce the scammers and dumpers (that does not make sense).

I agree with this one. There is no such height as risking your identity because of a few bucks from bounty. Plus KYC needs trustworthy management like civic and velix.id. I myself don't want to risk my identity in just bounty campaign.

But we can go with it, KYC process if the valuation comes from the ICO provider itself having hired a third party. Not just in BM or moderator.

In my opinion, for bounty participants do not necessarily require to fill the KYC. Because we just work continue to get wages. We work to promote their projects and they should pay us. If for investor I have to fill KYC. It can avoid the project from false investors to avoid the loss of the project.

I do agree too that bounties must have KYC to secure all the tokens and to make sure that the participants are not scammer. It is one way to give great security for the bounties

for me bounty hunter does not have to do kyc because we make any investment, and I also see a lot of bounty who ask for kyc but don't give token to the participants (scam) maybe some of them just need the identity we have I really hope the admin of this forum set new rules about bounty asking kyc to bounty hunter

I do not take any bounties that requires KYC to join with them. I think it is not advisable to get the information of the participants but be good to used it when investing in the ICO. Giving a personal information make fear because that can be used to get your account to be scammed. I do not think that they need to look for the info of the participants when they are just promoting the project.

In my opinion, it's because of many countries  have regulations for crypto related transactions and thus participants are required to complete KYC for the purpose of verification.... On the other hand, I also disagree about that idea since we cannot be certain that our identities are safe.

no I'm not, there are some advantages that we can get by having KYC but I dont see any reasons for bounty hunters to do kyc. we're not an investor.

First, the kyc can be manipulated they can be faked the submissions, second you never know if these projects will last a long time and you do not know if the project is legit and if they are legit check their complaint, this is not a client to client relationship,about the bounty you get your tokens and they have your information for their disposal they can sell it to the third party t,prepare for future cases if your information falls into the wrong hands

I'm actually in doubt if i'm going to participate in bounties that requires KYC because we're talking about real identities here and its safety. But i just hope that our identities are all safe.

Please look for the other side of the story. Not all ICOs that requires KYC is legitimate in the first place. Anyone can conduct ICO and they can tell anyone that they need to pass KYC application before they can invest in the project. What i am afraid of this KYC is that, it may leaked your information and its too dangerous because there is no guarantee that they will not use your information for any reason other than agreed upon. Specially, for ICO project which is a scam, its like they hit two birds in one stone. They got your money and at the same time they also got your information.

It would be dangerous to implement KYC in the bounties to come, besides many of the rewards are so low that they don't deserve your data, it would add a tedious step that would keep many people away. The only people you could ask for KYC would be the investors, to try to keep an accountability

This is good idea for anti-cheating, but you know your KYC document doesn't release or they keep it safe ? This bounties is scam or not ? I don't want to risk my identity in just bounty campaign.

well for me, I think its good, to actually avoid multiple accounts. if the bounty campaign requires bounty hunter to do kyc, we dont have any other choice but to do it. if not, we're not able to receive what we work hard for.

Isn't the way we fell uncomfortable when bounties required KYC, this is the way to eliminate scammers in the forum, using another accounts for the seek of their own. KYC is helping us, if people don't like it then it is better to look for bounties that don't ask KYC. 

After the recent Hashcard scam, I'm very reluctant to do KYC for ICO investing, let alone bounties. Before that I thought it was a good idea as to stop multi accounts etc. I think there's better ways bounty managers can run the campaigns to stop cheaters then KYC.

I agree. it's a good good filter. many people abuse generosity, and honest people suffer from it.

For first time, I don't like fill KYC form for claim bounty reward, because i'am not the investor? why should I o that?. But if you dont fill the KYC you will not get reward for your work, so like or not you must do KYC 

since I started doing bounty campaigns, I have encounter a lot of campaign which requires kyc for bounty hunters. but I dont participate at all. why do I need to do it. I should stay anonymous right?

I agree, in this way we can lessen those bots/fakes/frauds. So all of us legit participants will get more tokens.

I totally agree with you. When I read that post, the things that you mentioned here came to my mind. When KYC is required then we have to send our identity document and utility bill of bank statement. With these details any one can use them for their works. Therefore I think not better.

However, KYC does not conform to the concept of anonymous password community.
Also, most of the KYC of ICO projects may have leakage problems.

You are right, bounty that requires kyc, they just want to know if it's just one account per person, to avoid greedy people

Generally I will try to avoid bounties that require KYC. This is because there are some projects that took your personal information and run away. Who knows what they will do with it. So I do not feel safe doing KYC, unless it is very big and great project that I can trust.

I agree with some bounties required KYC because then its easy to handle multiple accounts and scammers but there is a potential risk which is we don't even know the bounty managers and they won't show there KYC(know your consumer) so how can we sure they won't use our private information for something else.

Nearly every ICO your identity are requested for KYC and also more often for AML because of the regulations of the authorities. Some free Airdrops asking the same .

Why do people trust that ICO token sales more as an ico where no KYC / AML is being asked? Of course you still send all your data on someone you do not know.

With that scan of your front and back of your passport or ID card, and a photo of yourself, someone can easily use your identity now on exchanges and ICOs. Especially since the scammers are now moving to new ways, the easiest way is to make purchases with your data.

The reason why kyc is needed for the reward should be to be wary of many people with large bitcointalk accounts, who will get many valuable tokens in bad faith.

I dont think so for bounty participants need kyc. It is better to requires on the investors for their supporting achievement to take good care of their investment. Many ico are required most for further documents.

I'm pretty confident their are tons of bots and multiple accounts these days. So many messages are nonsensical.

Dear everyone,
I have the same your idea. KYC is good for everyone to avoid the scammers. The fair is higher. But KYC maybe make someone miss the campaign. So, they can't receive the rewards if they miss it. Let's public KYC to everyone in many ways.

Absolutely, i agreed with you and fall in love with that opininion if truly that's the reason which every bounty would be requiring kyc. There would be reduced in dumping for the fact that there won't be multiple accounts

Its normal, main what i think KYC must be declarated at start of this project.
Peoples who dont have passport or dont want send their documents to the 3rd party dont lose their time and dont part

Not all bounties require KYC, but few of them will. The company offering the bounty will need to if their bounty hunters are real and it is to prevent multiple accounts and they will make sure that everybody gets a fair share of their bounty.

Thats one of many reasons why KYC was implemented. Multiple accounts in the bounty section is so rampant and it really needs to be cleaned up. So this KYC verification will help to get rid of these situation. But, the question is, are you really going to take the risks that your identity could be stolen, and can be used to illegal activities? Remember, youre giving away your essential information to someone in the internet that you didnt know.

I agree with this if the payment is in ETH and it will pay us weekly on that way we can be so sure that the campaign that we joining are not scammed and also they can be sure that no one is cheating the campaign so it's a win win situation for both parties.

Think about what you write here. Do you seriously think that in order to avoid a double account it is necessary that each signatory of the ICO provide a copy of his passport, a certificate from the bank on income, information about his place of residence and other confidential information? And to whom? Persons who in half the cases turn out to be scammers themselves? Have you ever tried to ask them a question on what basis do they require this information from you? And not general words about the need to test you for laundering your dirty money, even if you do not invest in these projects, or even such nonsense as if to make sure that you are not a US citizen, where participation in the ICO is prohibited. So it is forbidden to invest in ICO projects, or is it forbidden to advertise ICO projects as participants in the ICO signature campaign? Do not you see the difference? You are being deceived in the most arrogant way, and you are still giving them and encouraging that then your data appear in the public domain on the Internet, or even worse: after a while, police will come to your house with a search and then you will already explain in the office how in your name the property is registered by some tortured family bandits.

I completely agree with you here. This whole KYC drama goes against the entire anonymity aspect of this cryptocurrency market which is what attracts investors in the first place primarily. I suggest avoiding KYC based campaigns. I suggest providing KYC details if the particular campaign only wants simple details(email address etc). Do not simply hand over your passport details to unknown organizations on the internet.

Yes, there are some bounties that requires KYC as a source to avoid multiple accounts. But I did not feel like its a good idea as with KYC , you are providing your personal details to someone whom you do not know.

I think the project requires KYC is also normal. They have their own reasons for doing so. You must do it if you have joined the bounty. KYC is the way the project wants to experience more than community feedback and feedback. That's one of the reasons I think.

for me bounties are good but having kyc is not good for me. because lot of people here dont have valid id that can confirm by the kyc. because they are below 18. lot of student is on bounty they didnt do invest because the money they earn is they pay it for there tuition

I dont agree with kyc, because there are some issue's like using the identity of other people that they get from kyc's. and it alarms me, I dont know where they were using it.

I also strongly agree, Because it also can reduce cheating among bounty participants. Although KYC I think is very complicated but it will greatly help the project.

For me, KYC requirements lessen and reduces those people who is just wanting to take advantage to others. This is really good idea for us to avoid many circumstances to get scammed. It always gives equal opportunity to all the bounty hunters out there to get more earning and not allowing people use multiple accounts

I do not like KYC. I usually ignore the bounty campaign with KYC. KYC should only be applied to investors. There are so many bad KYC we can not manage.


The amount paid for the bounty campaign is very small. What would you do with a scam campaign?

Yes I think you are right. KYC which stands for know your customer should be made compulsory for bounties too. This will help to get rid of multiple accounts and solve security issues.

I'm not worried about this. If it is necessary to undergo the procedure, then I pass it. I do not see the bad in this.

I think that KYC is good for bounty campaigns. You said correctly, the number of bots and multi-accounts is decreasing.
For honest hunters it is not difficult to provide documents and pass KYC.

sorry to say that I cant agree with you because for KYC  you need to give your personal information to it and if it is somehow gets hacked than it might use your personal info in illegal ways.

Campaign managers could stop many people with multi accounts if they just look at the history of addresses used by each participant, KYC is just an excuse to try to get your data and even in the cases this is not the case how do they expect us to trust them when a significant amount of icos are nothing but scams? The developers of icos do not realize they are the ones that at the end are going to suffer the consequences of these actions.

KYC is good but what would happen if manager sell it? there are many good manager here but there are also bad manager and they will take advantage of this. for those dumpers they either sell it because they need money or they sell it because the price is high then after that it gets lower everyday.

Giving out KYC to Bounty manager isn't a problem but the fact is, Giving out information to this Bounty manager can be use for other bad purposes that may affect our life

Well KYC might be the best solution for bounty campaign but still risky. I'm just curious how effective the managers of every bounty campaign because there are some managers who are doing well in managing the participants especially if its a btc paying campaing. Though some of the managers are still doing great despite of volume of participants, I think filling up the form for your proof of work can be an alternative one instead of asking for KYC.

If I have a choice I will not agree that a bounty participants will undergo KYC as for me this is only applicable to the investors that will invest in a ICO with more than the minimum amount. But I have no option if my bounty manager will request me to submit my KYC for my token. I must follow for my reward token.

You need to take attention to the place where yo do the  KYC. If the bounty manager let you do the KYC on the panel of the official website of the ICO, then you can do it. Otherwise can it be a problem if they let you fill a form or something like that.

You have a good point to avoid multiple accounts but some bounties required kyc due to laws in one country maybe to follow the AML.

I don't agree. For that reason I have to pass KYC? do not see any reasonable point. Multi ? it will not help

I've not seen some sort of bounty's that needs KYC. Have you ever seen it by yourself or it's just an idea? imho it's not practical for bounty managers and it will be more hardest way for distribution of bounty tokens.

If a bounty project is not that big, knowing your customer is not crucial since multiple account users and identity thief won't be interested and it can also be a crypto project laundering. BIG Projects that is promising and will surely give crypto utility should be the one to required the KYC practice to avoid future complication and KYC is highly acceptable since its broadly accepted in the field of finance.

I agree with you. When you get into the car, you accept the rules of the road. It is too. Do not want to show documents, do not make bounty.

For removing scammer you can ask proof of authentication post , in this post every single bounty hunter have to give his detail of all campaigns. You can check all details of everyone. And passing kyc is very stressful so i don't go for it and there is many other ways to avoid scammers.

I agree if that happens, but the question is, can they be trusted to keep their personal data? I am afraid that one day they will use it for a scam

KYC is not something the bounty needs. Bounty needs a transparent mechanism through which it will be possible to get rid of the multitude of scammers who create projects in order to deceive people.

I agree to you because some of the project that have kyc is legit. But then some of the project that need kyc is like a scam they getting sa info and private in you so that they can use it or steal something to you. I think in my opinion 50% for kyc and 50% for not.

I am neutral about this procedure, I just do not like that it takes too much time and with the passage of the procedure KYC constantly delay the issuance of the token.

I think that KYC does not need to be held by the participants of the bounty campaigns. It is unclear why this is necessary. This is a waste of time and sending your personal data to unknown places.

I do agree too that bounties must have KYC to secure all the tokens and to make sure that the participants are not scammer. It is one way to give great security for the bounties

I do not like KYC verification for bounty hunters. It is true that it serves to avoid multiple accounts of scammers, but I believe that we can identify other methods to avoid these situations. There is no regulation that provides for the sending of personal documents for bounty hunters, and it is dangerous to send these sensitive data

I think KYC is too much for a bounty campaign, because KYC is only used for ICO investors only, so if a bounty campaign requires KYC I'd better choose another bounty campaign, because in my opinion, KYC is just a mode to cover the scam project

Actually i don't agree that bounty shall be require to submit KYC because we are having our tokens because of hard works but not because we invested a huge money. KYC was required to prevent money laundering thru ICO investments but we are not investing money here but we are paid according to our output but if the ICO is a promising and a good payer that they will require KYC to bounty then i oblige because i have nothing to hide anyway.

If you think about it, it filters out well. But on the other hand do not want to throw off your data to some people.

I think the KYC is just necessary for the bounty participants to reduce the number of scams.

today moneytoken share list of accepted wallets for bounty hunters. Spreadsheet is closed. I don't know why they deleted me from list.

That is true it means their is an assurance if the bounty has KYC. All of the advantages will bring through it and their is no chances to fake by other and it is easy to identify too either cam or not. Well their is no problem if the bounty needs KYC.

I dont like that idea becouse we cant know what could happened with our personal info we why we need that personaly i dont want to join bounties like that.

This is a more effective control method for issuing currency. It should have been done long ago. Multiple accounts and spamming have affected the development of certain Tokens and hinder the good environment. Only in this way will it be easier to remove malicious people, but This is not the most effective method. After KYC, there will be a lot of fake people involved. In the end, more processing methods should come from developers how to deal with it and make everything fair.

There is no regulation and no law, in any country in the world, which requires bounty campaigners to participate in bounty campaigns to send their personal documents to receive their tokens. I think it's right for investors, but KYC verification for bounty hunters is a "forcing". There may be other methods to find scammers who use multiple accounts

For me having a KYC requirement in bounties has a pros and cons. The pros of this requirement is that it is giving more opportunity for all of us bounty hunters to join a bounty campaigns and also it can avoid having lots of alternative account. The cons of this project is it is really hard to join a specific bounty if there is really a kyc requirements.

I think that bounties should require KYC to all of its participants. Even though the intention of having KYC is good, other campaigns that are scams will take advantage of that information and might even sell your personal information. Another thing, the purpose of cryptocurrency is for you to have an anonymous transaction (even if its not really that anonymous), then giving away your personal information defeats its sole purpose.

As I started to participate some bounty campaign last year It is not required a KYC for any participants that's why more participants are cheating sometimes and having a KYC in a campaign is a better idea for us to prevent from the cheaters who wanted to earn in a double account without knowing them. And I really agree of having a KYC.

Okay so the thing with KYC is that it can greatly reduce scammers and that can be awesome. Still, KYC is something that is used for Intitial Coin Offerings (ICOs) and it is personal information that can be used for scams and therefore it is VERY dangerous to submit it to unknown people. I, personally, am sort of reluctant to submit KYC. Although, it wouldn't be that big a problem to submit it, I'm afraid of letting people know my personal information.

I am not comfortable with this requirement. But if we need to comply in order to be compensated, then I guess we really have no choice. KYC for me is just another risk that I will have to take. KYC has its pros and cons as many other things. We just need to accept it and move forward.

if I don't agree with myself. Why ? because if you apply the KCY system, it's a bit uncomfortable, because KYC is an important enough personal information, the risk is also to be disseminated for crime.

If you still do not understand what KYC is for and you are ready to go through it, then I'm sorry, especially if you are willing to go through it to get a bounty. Since you can find all your documents online. I'm afraid to talk about all the processes of KYC, but probably the majority.

I also agree with your opinion, indeed many people now have multiple accounts and KYC is the right choice to stop the steps so that it can be a lesson for multiple accounts.

KYC is not necessary for bounties.

Somehow agreed, KYC really helps to distinguish cheaters. We all know that KYC are only required for the investors, but as of now, KYC avoids abusive members of the community. We just need to ensure that the project that we need to do KYC is reputable for our identity not to remain private.

It is necessary for the bounty that they suspect that there is fraud and cheater. But I would never participate in the KYC request bounty. My information will definitely be used for another purpose

It is certainly good that they are trying to fight with bots, but on the other side, due to KYC scammers collect a bunch of documents and it is not known what they do with it. It's time to use KYC through a single verification service, which is already quite a lot on the market.

Sometimes one of verification demands is a bill or another document that justify your registration (doc must be in Latin, officially translated by agency). I don’t have an opportunity to make such translation. In such cases KYC become unreal for me and I lose tokens.

KYC is a form of protection to the ICO or bounty program. Also, KYC helps to remove multiple accounts, reducing dumpers and remove scammers. In my point of view there no wrong with KYC and it helps the security of ICO's to the scammers.

Well do you have point about the over population of bounty participants in bounty campaign. This may result of being more spamming activities and also for having a multiple account of a one person. I think it is quite good to put kyc for bounty participants it can cause decreasing of participants to support  bounty projects. But for me instead of strictly putting kyc for all bounty participants It is better to do this when they want to purchase tokens or they want to become investors. I think it is advisable for all investors who wants participate in private, presale and  publicsale to avoid scammer.

I don't see any problems with KYC for bounty hunters. But at the start of the campaign, it should clearly notify about the necessity of the KYC. Otherwise, it will be unfair for the people who don't have KYC documents.

Well, the points that you have raised are right, but what is the guarantee that you personal data would be safe and it wouldn't be compromised in future. There are many instances where personal data has been sold or get leaked.

I'm not sure this will bring any benefits to the project as a whole. The only consequences, in my opinion, will be to reduce the number of participants. I do not see why we should give all our personal data to people without any justification.

KYC is only suitable for ICO investors. Bounties require KYC, They need KYC to do for bounty hunters, to avoid cheating or multiple accounts. But all that is not recommended. Should not KYC indiscriminately, It will be very dangerous to yourself

I also agree with the KYC policy, so as to avoid cheaters in bounty campaigns. This also lessens the possibility of being scammed. It literally filters out the fake. There are lots of bounties of which I complied with their KYC policy successfully. However, I also understand why many people cannot comply with this. I know a lot of crypto enthusiasts that had made trading and crypto jobs their source of income to support their studies. Many in the group of which I belong to are still studying; reason why they do not have the acceptable IDs (driving license, passport and national IDs) that is required.

This is a common phenomenon and this should be treated calmly, in extreme cases, you can buy images of documents on the Internet if you are very worried that you will start hunting

I think that's right for you to know who is using a mutiple account in the bounty but I think I'm also cautious about joining bounty kicks for others because there are bounty bills to use in other bounty or exchangers but it's also nice to have the kyc in the bounty.

Im not really into it. Bounty that requires KYC is too much.
Many good projects that did not recquired KYC.
There is always a danger in submtting your identity to an unknown person.

This is a wrong and illegal practice. The KYC check is conducted to prevent the laundering of dirty money and other illegal transactions with cash and non-cash money. Therefore, the requirement to pass a KYC check is illegal for participants in the ICO generosity campaign, this check can only be carried out by investors who invest their funds in ICO projects.
In order to dissociate several accounts from one forum member, it is not necessary to violate the right of all to confidential information. A law has been adopted in my country that protects my right and establishes a limited list of state bodies that have the right to demand the provision of confidential information and public organizations, to which the ICO teams can be attributed, do not apply to them. In addition, we know that a large percentage of ICO teams are scammers, and so providing them with our confidential information is very dangerous. In addition, the KYC check does not solve the issue with multiple accounts, since it is not so difficult to circumvent it by providing not your data.

Yes, most people are currently worried about kyc, what is the next goal for the kyc, and I am afraid that it could be done for illegal things, so now I am better to choose gifts that are not related to kyc.

I'm not sure, I filled the kyc several times but the bounty was scam. and that is ridiculous they took my data but I didn't get anything.

Having a KYC for bounties are had a purpose such as to avoid multiple accounts fake or scams. A lot of people are against to bounties required KYC but we need to accept and respect on what's the team and manager decision.

I totally agree! I find no problem filling up my KYC and I don't mind if they use my details, I also find projects with KYC more secure and important, the price of their crypto isn't so volatile and bumpy! People who don't like filling in KYC can skip bounty!

i think it will not help because there are i.d making softwares available at deepweb and most of the forum users access depweeb too. i think multiple accounts here in bct is hard to manage because in one account like this i am not able to perfect my posting and if multiple accounts i think it will not work for me.

I think a simple KYC with just only photo+selfie don't much help to avoid multi accounters. Another case  - a KYC with real video contact via Skype/Viber/Whatsapp, which will be much more fair for bounty hunters.

I think everything should be transparent. Already so tired of these bots and multi-accounts. I'm not against the already much time passed KYS papers, put watermarks  8)

it is not good for a bounty to require their participants to submit their KYC. for me KYC is only to those who invests in the said project, therefore the bounty hunters should not be oblige to do so.

So far, I have no argument whether having kyc is good or bad. All I do know is that kyc should be needed for bounty hunters to avoid multiple accounts in one campaign. Yes, I do agree with you that having kyc is just for fair sharing of bounties for bounty hunters.

In this post every single bounty hunter have to give his detail of all campaigns. You can check all details of everyone. And passing kyc is very stressful so i don't go for it and there is many other ways to avoid scammers.

I've yet to see a reputable bounty require KYC. I dont see the reason when they arent raising funds from you.

Exactly. I strongly agree if the bounty requires KYC. apart from all negative assumptions about the bounty that requires KYC such as misappropriation of personal data or other reasons. I think that with the application of KYC it will reduce fraud.

In my opinion, it will depend on how much worth the bounty going to be to make me give in KYC. I don't think every bounty need KYC tho because even information could still be mock-up or fake.

I wonder why anyone will give his or her identity out to anonymous team that wanted to confirm your task.  The information provided at the time of registration for taking part in the bounty campaign is more than enough for any processes!

I'm sorry if I'm wrong, but what I know is that gift hunters can't be the main characters to blame when there is a dumper in the market because what I know is that gift hunters only have a small percentage of the budget or a total ICO coin supply, especially KYC will spread our personal documents so that the method is not really needed.

yes i am agree too to avoid multiple accounts this is needed. It is needed to reduce scams and multiple account holders for the fair distribution process.

KYC can help the campaign to reduce cheaters or scammers but I am with so many people disagreeing with it. We really do not know what they will do with our information. We do not invest money in projects so KYC is not really practical.

I don't think this is necessary, but if the system is set up like that, we must accept it. I think KYC is not optimal for reducing multy accounts, there must be more systems to actually reduce a lot of accounts. so I don't think KYC is needed for a Bounty.

I do not like sending my documents to KYC, but I agree with the rules only to get a reward.

often kyc is imposed by regulation because some projects have to tell the regulator the initial owners of the tokens issued

It is quite ridiculous to demand kyc to get a bounty prize. People interested in crypto money prefer to stay anonymous. But it is not right to give our personal information this way, we need to stay anonym :)

I think KYC in a bounty campaign is not that bad. It even reduce the number of bounty participants because a lot of bounty Hunters don't have documents to pass KYC. The KYC process is also good because it prevents multiple account in bounty.

Absolutely against KYC in bounty companies. Moreover, now there are a lot of scammers and do not really want to provide their data. Another thing if you invest in ICO, then maybe there is a sense in KYC. I myself always reject the bounty with the exposure of KYC.
And if the question is that one person could not perform one company with 10+ accounts, then it might be easier to ask not for KYC, but simply for a photo with the nickname of its bitcointel and the company name, but then manually have to check the similarities. But for us, ordinary users are easier than to throw off immediately KYC is not clear to whom.

I believe that the introduction of KYC is necessary. This not only eliminates multiaccounts, but also plays into the hands of bounty hunters. Many are simply too lazy to pass it or worry about their data.

Categorically he does not agree with the author. The cryptocurrency has to be allegedly anonymous and not issue data of the owner to anybody. I consider that KYC contradicts it. It will not be able to reduce the number of multiaccounts in any way.

KYC is acceptable for investors, but it is definetely extra requirement for bountyhunters.

It is very annoying for bounty. And i can understand when they announce it at the beginning.

But after end, out of nowhere a must kyc is bad intention.

Yes it is one of the ways to prevent cheaters to have benefit from it.
I would also suggest for checking VPN and in the same time for email address checking.

KYC is a good strategy for bounty campaign. In fact I attach more seriousness to the project that requires kyc because there is this instinct that many of those projects will be successful. Kyc is a method of denying some greedy people who use multiple accounts so that chance will also be available for others. I am a big supporter of kyc.

yes, I agree if it will reduce multi accounts but here I am also very worried about my personal data, can they keep everyone's data properly ??? and another thing I really hate, when the bounty manager asks for KYC with a passport, most of the bounty hunters don't have that so they can't claim payment

KYC for the bounty - it's stupid!
What is KYC? This know your customer! Why the participants of the bounty campaigns must pass KYC? KYC is needed to counter criminal money. How the participants in the bounty can clean the money, if they do not invest Fiat money?

I am agree with you kyc will reduce multiple accounts in any bounty programme and it will enable only real person with single account join a bounty programme.

No, not for participants because we give our work and money to the team. The team has to do KYC, to avoid a scam of them.

How should Bounty participants scam a project, are you kiddin?

Nope, Bounty pool will stay the same, independant from participants, because it's often 3% of the raised money or 2%

KYC is another try of scammers to steal personal data

It seems to me that it is not necessary to pass KYC, as it is possible to calculate the IP and ID addresses of users, but the passage of KYC can have serious consequences, besides I do not think that for the sake of bounty is to pass KYC.

KYC for bounties is nothing more than an information grab.  With the prices being where they are at anyone subjecting themselves to a KYC risking possible identity theft or worse seems like an uneducated decision.  Only a fool would identify ones self in crypto. 

Well, if KYC were strictly needed for a project to succeed we would see every single campaign implementing it, but they are just a few doing it, so no, it is not necessary, more like whim or an obstacle.

In my own opinion, kyc should be only required for those investors and not for the bounty hunters since they are just promoters and not actual investors.

If the ICO company and bounty managers want to prevent any suspicious and bogus account for bounty tasks then KYC is a separate distinction because in the first place we are not an investor but a paid advertisers or a micro-taskers and using the KYC term was an abuse to the bounty hunters, so there should be a separate requirements between a hunter and a customer/investors ,for bounty hunters there should be a term like KYH or shall we call it Know Your Hunters.

I am strongly against bounties requesting for KYC because most of these project end up not being successful and will make use of applicant's kyc documents to secure a place in other good project. They can have a limit to the number of applicants needed for a campaign instead of kyc

I do not agree that it is a must when it comes on bounty especially for the participants to recive their rewards. In the first place, we cannot do anything about it once the team behind that project asks for your KYC because if you would refuse to do so, rewards won't be received. Also, it is their way on promoting equality by avoiding multiple accounts.

It's just fine with me having that kyc for all the bounty hunter participants and most specially for all the investors, it's just that since our personal details and informations are being submitted I just hope there will be no identity theft will happen. That is just my concern.

I do not agree that Bounty requires KYC. and I'm not sure that my data will not be used by scammers

yes it will avoid multiple accounts but the risking  your information is not a good idea too and the anonimity will be gone                         

KYC is important to filter out fake accounts, and so that to filter real people in the bounty campaigns. A lot of scammers nowadays pretending to be a real one.

Yes, I agree. It is necessary to catch the scammers! If you look carefully, then you will find scammers in every bounty campaigns! Some people work hard to get good payment, but for those bloody scammers, real people get a few rewards! To prevent them, KYC needs for the bounty participants too, and I like the Icosid website and their KYC procedure!

the truth be told, most people know how to go around things like kyc when it comes to using of multiple accounts but the can not access different Internet protocol (IP), so if the kyc is for multiple entries screening then i will advice the need for checking of IP instead of the kyc. thanks

KYC is used to have unique information and avoid alt accounts or people with multiple accounts joining a bounty. The decentralized system makes it difficult to identify which people is which or is this a human or a bot. With this, they just protecting themselves from fraud that can destroy their project.

I also think that way.It's still much better to keep your data private and stay anonymous until the bounty ends.Yes it will minimize people with multiple accounts but we don't have an assurance that our datas will be safe with them too.We can still be scam in the future.

Yes, it is true that this can reduce the chance of having multiple account by bounty hunters and they should also see to it that the kind of KYC that they will require is a complicated one like having a utility bill perhaps. This way the chance of cheating is low.

I am not totally against KYC, but I am also not comfortable with it since my identity will be compromised. Giving away our personal details to strangers is not ideal but sometimes we are placed in a situation where we had to give in. Not all projects/ ICO's require KYC. So I think it would be best for us to stay away from those who require it.

Hope so using kyc to avoid take advance using multiple account participating in bounty campaign to got payment.

But for me isn't was a solution avoiding user to take advance multiple accounts in bounty, presenting identification they use fake identification sending as kyc requirements easy to get more identity identification they sent to kyc.

Know your customer is important but i feel it should be after a successful ICO, and not just at the ICO or pre-ICO. I for one personally feels unsafe to release my data and ID just anyhow, so it should be worthy of it.

I will recommend you to stay away from all those shit KYC projects, I believe the personal sensitive identification data should not come for getting some free coins.

I think it's alright to have a KYC in bounty because it will be fair and it will avoid the people who cheat in bounty.  And I think the team of bounty just want to protect their project. I think because of KYC many cheaters now can't get a reward.

Why would an individual be afraid of sending KYC to the team behind the project if he is not doing anything against the rule. Although it is personal information, but that's the team on a particular project, not a simple stranger. It would also promote equality between the bounty participants, because in such way, multiple account users would be prohibitied for the rewards from doing such thing, so i think it is not a bad thing.

It would be nice if the project distributed the stacks that the bots received (or other people who did not pass the KYC) between the other members of the bounty. And it often happens that they take it to themselves

I think this is very good if you use KYC for every new project that emerges, because this is to avoid the many accounts they are working on to get gifts and this is very fair for investors.

I believe that bounty hunters should not pass kyc, since they do not invest in the project, but work on its development, and this is quite another

I actually agree with this policy. That avoid Bounty Campaign from multiple account. But, I afraid to my ID security and safety. Project got my identity. We must pay attention to abuse. They may stole our data identity

I think, KYC is not solution for decrease scams project. Also is not guaranteed to decrease dumpers.dump is not about quantity, but is about how much dumper hold the coin.

yes I also agree. honestly, in my opinion kyc is fairer than merit to reduce scammer. because scammers are chasing lots of bounties with lots of accounts for their profits. with kyc, it can be reduced and provide opportunities for other participants, especially those whose rank is still low.

ive been in one its not really a big deal, ya some people believe in privacy but it was only the second time ive ever had to do it.

It is a good idea from the Bounty program to have KYC for them to be able to know their costumer and to lessen the scammer but the disadvantage is that how can we sure that the admin will not used our personnal ID's and information elsewhere.Just my opinion.

I haven't tried participating in an ico that requires kyc for some reasons. I hate spreading my personal information online. Although I know that kyc can help stop or at least identity those who are cheating or scammers, I just don't like the idea of sharing my personal information for me it violates my right to privacy which is the best quality of cryptocurrency.

Most at times introduction of KYC is to prevent multiple cheating in a bounty, although it might come with some demerits but I think without KYC too things are going to get worse.

I think your reason is not right that KYC is to avoid multiple accounts, because KYC data can also be manipulated. I also agree with the use of KYC, especially for investors. I think KYC only functions so that other users cannot claim your prizes, especially by using the proof of posting on tread.

Yes, I strongly agree that with this KYC it is possible to avoid them to create many accounts on the bounty, they do not carelessly make multiple accounts in several new projects that appear, then it is very fair for investors and to give prizes to their respective participants.

right KYC is the only one that hinders multi accounts, if they create lots of accounts to campaign on one of the signature projects, they will know and not get bets if they don't follow the rules in the project.

We think this is very agreeable with the presence of Kyc, because nowadays many people make mistakes in campaigning, especially they make lots of accounts and after that they will get a lot of gifts, so with the Kyc fair for investors and to give prizes to the participants.

There are many reasons to use KYC, this is in accordance with the policies of the developer. Avoiding multiple accounts or cheating results so that the kyc is launched, this should be announced before the ICO will be better and participants will be better prepared.

I think KYC is one of them for the success of a bounty project that can be published and find out who is campaigning, it often happens that they violate the rules of making multiple accounts in a project so they want to get more tokens.

I strongly agree that Bounty requires KYC because many people campaign on a project and they want to get a lot of prizes, then with the kyc they can get one account or one wallet.

I agree with that kind of rules in any campaign even though I don't have any past experience in any campaign I joined before but my friend joined a campaign that requires a KYC but then after the campaign ends their manager announced that the KYC are not needed anymore because I think they know that they will take much time I mean spend much time in doing KYC that's why they removed that rules after so many things to do in the campaign.

it's true, even with pros and cons about kyc for bounties. still got more benefits if bounties applied kyc, can reduce multi-account and dumpers in a one shot

I really do not think this is a good policy. Because KYC takes a lot of time out of the bounty hunters. We will not know who our information will be handed to anyone and we will not anticipate those dangers.

It is good if bounties can request for KYC but what i dont support is the fact that some bounties wont inculde it when they are starting their bounty and when they finish, they will be requesting for KYC. Many bounty hunters have been deprived the opportunity of getting reward for the work they do because some dont even do follow up on the bounties they work for because they work for so many bounties and they have lost the count. The best is to include KYC from the beginning so that you are well informed of the need for KYC before starting the campaign

There is absolutely no reason why bounties should require KYC.
In fact, there is absolutely no reason why ICOs should even require it.
As of now, there is no laws or regulations in any country that require KYC for startup investing like ICO.

The only reason why KYC became a thing is because there is a vaguely worded international policy to prevent money laundering.
Banks use a Know Your Customer policy and this usually means that you have to open a bank account face to face or provide some kind of ID.

With crypto, it's kind of the wild west where there aren't that many regulations.
ICOs started becoming paranoid as the SEC (which only applies to americans and american companies) started making rules for accredited investors and the like.
So people just started doing KYC without any real legal precedent.
It's utterly foolish really..

Something in which you are right that there will be less sales. But I do not think that would go to one bounty people will make several accounts, usually it makes a current on the airdrop and then not at all. It is better to work in many bounties than to work current in one bounty to earn more tokens of this project. After all, if this project does not take off then it's all wasted time considering that it is not appropriate at such a time on the market. Better than 10 bounty projects than one as they say and it takes a very long time and it is priceless for every person.

Bounty require Kyc is not something I like to get involve with. Some will argue that kyc is necessary to curb cheating and all, but i still don't see any sense in doing it! It again my ideology of cryptocurrency!

Sounds good, this will limit the spammers and multiple accounts, but the problem is its too hassle when reviewing documents and it takes time. However, it may lead to few participants in a bounty so how will bounty success if project didn't advertise well?

Yes I agree also that bounty should have kyc for us bounty hunters to be paid well and to avoid giving tokens to those people joining multiple accounts in just one ICO. Theyre too greedy in terms of money. Bounty campaigns should know their customers. It is a good transaction for everyone right.

sure , fake accounts will be eliminated but that will also lessen the traffic that a project can get because the bounty participants are now limited  .  i think that is a bad idea at all .  even legit people with legit accounts may also find it hard to participate in a bounty because they will find it hassel and more time consuming if a bounty will require kyc's and other validation .

KYC for bounties I think is good to reduce the cheater who joins the bounty. But is still risky, if we have got scam bounty and asking for passing the KYC, they will steal our data and used for illegal activities like selling our data to the other irresponsible people...

in our opinion, it is very agreeable that Bounty needs KYC because the only way to succeed in the project, if many people campaign to create multiple accounts, then most likely the project does not run normally.

It is very true that I strongly agree that Bounty requires KYC, the first to emphasize for people who violate the rules about campaigning on one project, maybe they want to get a lot of presents, if they need kyc they will get a single account and one wallet no more, unless they use other people's identities, at least 2 pieces.

we strongly agree that Bounty needs a KYC where now their bounty hunters use a lot of accounts to do promotions on certain projects, where they want to get more bets, with the kyc they can't create multiple accounts in a project they are working on.

I'm more interested in bounties with kyc because its more of seriousness to me and more secured ,no cheating ,multiple accounts will reduce a lot too.

In my past bounty campaign I need to do a KYC to get a reward from my bounty and it's nice to do that to know the participants in bounty also.

we agree that Bounty needs KYC, because this is one of the obstacles for people who do prohibition to create many accounts on a project, where the project needs the support of many people to do the campaign, with the kyc they cannot create many accounts and are fair for investors to give gifts to each participant.

Our opinion agrees that Bounty requires KYC because many people make multi accounts in each project, maybe they want to get more tokens compared to working on one account.

Indeed, I agree that Bounty requires KYC, but there are projects when doing the work in need, then the pronyek time has passed, they issued the next rule that kyc no longer need to be loaded, the reason the admin wasted time.

I do not really trust on KYC. KYC can be used to steal your identity. If you give it to the unknown you are giving them a hole to exploit your identity.
Though there are trusted projects I'm still careful about it.

KYC in bounty , that sound ridiculous because the hunter only assist in doing his job to help promote the project so in what way will kyc now be mandatory to such people ,and on the aspect of cheating , I think there many measures bounty manager can put in place to curb that instead of giving out our details for promoting a project , I think we should all support #NoKycForBounty,
One of the way to stop the cheating is proof of authentication, which I think is a good idea .

My opinion is that the positive and negative thinking of KYC itself is the positive side of avoiding several accounts in this forum and the negative impact of Kyc data will be misused at any time so that it is not a safe way to avoid scammers. All areas are not perfect teams,
but I personally disagree if the hunters are required to KYC in every bounty if the hunters are airdrop I think it is mandatory to use kyc
its my opini

No I disagree with this idea. Because personal identity is private. If you use KYC as  bounties. Then your identity is exposed. At the same time, your encrypted currency address is also exposed. Encrypted money is used to protect privacy. That's done. Contrary to the laws of the market.

I Strongly Go Against KYC In Bounty Programs. Why?

Because Most Bounty Managers Might Use Your Credentials For Illegal Activities Elsewhere,

The Only Place I Can Submit My Credentials Is Only On Recognized Cryptocurrency Trading Platform

But For Bounty Programs, Nah, There Are A lot Of Disadvantage In Submitting KYC Doc In Bounty Programs.

I agreed with your opinion. But i think  bounty hunters are unlike with this KYC procedure. Because lot of bounty campaigns are don't distribute some campaigns tokens with cheater KYC failure.

It's is become an ideal strategy taken by most bounty campaigns to do Kyc. Out of greedy, most people register witha number of all accounts to and requires to get multiple payments and there are bots too who may increase the number of participants.

Kyc - Know your client, is a way to reduce scammers and know if its just one person with different accounts, its allows the Project owners to know each and all of their clients, even tho am not a big fan of the idea of sending personal documents for doing little bounty, if it wud reduces scammers in the cypto world then am in

So many people use multiple accounts to participate in bounties and KYC is the only way to curb that menace. I gladly support it in my own opinion. That is also the only way as well to know the countries of your token holders as well

KYC is very helpful in removing bots from the company's bounty so I'm only for it, but it's only dangerous for me to give my documents to not clear companies that can be scammers.

Yes, I agree that Bounty needs KYC, it will make a huge difference to the people that have been getting away with using multiple accounts to get larger shares of the campaign stakes. It is also a necessity to ensure that tokens are not sent to regions that have specifically blocked citizens from crypto activity.

It is not necessary to pass the KYC to the participants of the bounty companies as it is very little money and then how to trust the Manager with your documents and how he will use them,there are both positive and negative sides of KYC.

I do not believe in such bounty projects that require kyc and write that this is 100% safe. The security of your documents can not be guaranteed by anyone. Recently, even fraudulent ico projects require kyc to sell them on the black market, which causes some kind of mistrust with the users. If ever he gave his documents to other people on the Internet, then already they are already on the black market.

I agree of it.. Bounty need a Kyc in order to be aware of the scams ICO and multiple accounts of the bounty hunter. Some of the bounty hunters here are having a multiple accounts so when there is KYC needed, it can be reduce the scams ICO and the multiple accounts of the bounty hunters to be fair.

They need to do that to avoid some multiple bounties account with a one person owner only. That is the most common thing if he/she can't provide a full legit detail of different accounts. But the real thing is... it's easy to send a fake information in KYC, specially if you are a kind of "Pro" user or bounty hunter. I dit it sometimes but for my two accounts only, I use my brother information. Thinking that is not a bad thing, because I work so hard on both accounts.

For me, i will perfectly agree with you on Bounties with KYC, for sure that way it would go a long way to reduce scammers as well as those having multiple accounts.

Yes, I support you bro. That is why I hate this KYC/AML system, it takes a lot of time ( days or week if possible ) to verify your KYC if accepted or not. I encounter that so many times here in altcoins bounty section.

i do not completely agree dough. Although KYC would r culd reduce multiple accounts but it might also have the tendency of reducing number of users because most persons prefer not revealing their identity especially when it comes to crypto, at least for now, and due to that rather than them participating, they would drop out.

yes that's right, it's a big risk when we give our personal documents to others because we don't know what will happen next
I agree with the reason they are doing KYC to destroy fraud , but I think they need to think about how we can believe that our documents are not misused

I think some persons would rather participate in bounties with KYC only if they have a good payout. And right now due to the decrease in market, people would rather not o for the bounties with KYC rather than stick to the non KYC bounties.

This is really a strong one.
But for me, i would say that bounties with KYC would go a long way in reducing scammers and dumpers but i fear that it might reduce the spread of the project.
My opinion dough.

For me, projects with such verification are more credible, since this in most cases eliminates bots and scammers. After all, why should we share honestly earned marketing with such people?

If the bounty task requires KYC to join, then this may limit many bounty hunters, and most bounty tasks require the propaganda effect of the project, they like more people to participate in the mission!

I strongly agree that Bounty requires a KYC, this is the only way to succeed in a project that they expect in the future, where hired hunters cannot create multiple accounts to promote it so that it will be fair to investors and to give prizes to participants who do the work.

Bounty campaigns on the one hand need some sort of control, KYC on the one hand can help, but not all people are ready to provide their documents for this, because there are many fraudulent projects and who knows for what needs they are using this confidential information in the future

As for me, it is okay, but when they ask you to scan and upload national id (both sides) I send then right to hell together with their tokens. I agree to confir my identity, but sending them all the data seems to be insane to me.

Of course I agree with this, but not with the complex KYC. For example, confirmation of identity with a video call is superfluous.

KYC will not reduce fraud in bounty campaigns. They will simply buy other people's documents, or they will take them from friends/family members. Do not go KYC - it's dangerous.

now most of the bounties we do they require kyc and it is good in long term we can see genuine workers work for bounties it saves ico admins and bounties time and in bounty distribution

Every ICO should have KYC since some people are using multiple accounts on participating the bounty campaign. It makes the bounty campaign fair and smooth to all bounty hunter but it is not always the case, there is terms and conditions while passing the KYC, ever wonder what they do after you passed the KYC? where do your ID copy will go, no one will know but them.

Since bounties are required kyc just to secure that there participants are not using multiple acoounts but I totally disagree with that because KYC is not safe especially our identity there is a chance that it might be hacked and used it just to scam people.

I don't mind KYC as long as it still fulfills the procedure, especially if the value of the tokens is large enough. whatever it is will always be risky in the crypto industry.

This is something that should not be so unusual nowadays and is so necessary. Especially in recent years, the number of users who have used bounty campaigns badly has increased so much that the project teams are forced to use this defense. Of course it is not a perfect security measure, but we can say that it is a security measure enough to avoid income with multiple memberships. Authenticating for each project is not reliable either, so we need to be very careful with our users and give only our quality information to quality projects. We have also carried out a necessary activity such as conducting research in this way, and we are also informed about the project. Thus, we have a chance to keep ourselves away from simple projects indirectly.

I'm participate many bounty in which Some bounty are required  bounty KYC for get token. Mostly kyc are required for token sale. So I agree the bounty need KYC for bounty token.

It seems to me that such checks are necessary to exclude the participation of scammers or bots. It is necessary to introduce this system for many projects.

I think that for participation in bounty companies need not undergo KYC, so as you give their data and in most cases for 10 dollars. In addition, there are a lot of scams in the crypto-currency market, if there were guarantees that the ICO in which you participate will not be a fraud, then maybe I would give my data, but still it is quite dangerous.

I agree to verify the identity for the bounty. Because there will be more fraud with more than one account participating in the campaign. They will receive more token than those who only use one account

I think that KYC should be if the amount invested exceeds at least $ 3k, but not for bounties. It's not worth taking risk with your documents, like a few dollars in a twitter campaign.

I think bounties dont need to do a kyc because we not an investor. We just helped the project to succesfull in crowdsale, i never do bounty for kyc because my id it's nor worth'ed to be shared.

yes I strongly agree that Bounty requires KYC, the first for bounty hunters can not make many accounts, because they want to get lots of tokens after the project period is up, with the kyc it will be fair for investors and to give prizes to participants.

Are the campaign manager going to keep the documents?

I have already submitted some documents to exchanges and to some campaigns that asks KYC. I don't see any problem but I hope to get out of it whenever something comes up. Sooner the government owned exchange perhaps will soon arise, they sure will be asking for KYC too.

I also agree if the bounty must be kyc, so it can minimize spam and can make bounty hunters really work hard so they get lots of bonuses for bounty hunters

I don't see it as issue if hunters are told at the start of the campaign not telling them at the end of it.

It is obvious overtime that some participants usually use multiple accounts in doing their bounty, this act of violating the bounty rules has caused a repetition of same content in various accounts and negates originality.

Therefore, in a bid to avoid this nonchalant attitude exhibited by participants, the Know Your Customer Policy (KYC) should be a necessity in other to track these defaulters.

I'll tell you so I fully support the passage of KYC for bounty companies, well, in the first place it will screen out a large number of multi-accounts, which in turn will reduce the number of participants and increase the pool of rewards

I strongly disagree with KYC for hunters, for KYC investors there is a kind of insurance, and for the participants of bounty companies this is unacceptable, hunters do not invest in projects,but participate in advertising projects and receive bonuses.

Some of the bounties required KYC, maybe because some of the bounties consider all the bounty hunters as an investors. But if some bounty hunters really don't want KYC, then they should choose the bounty that doesn't required KYC.

Bounties required KYC is a tactic of the greedy project party. To know that ico is illegal in some countries, KYC of bounty hunters in those countries cannot be passed, so project side can save a lot of payment, it is a shameless act.

I do not agree with the fact that the bounty participants are invited to pass KYC. This will not save you from fraud - on the contrary. In free access to all who are horrible will be known personal data from the photo. And these personal data can be used by various scammers that are related to the "good" ICO, which makes KYC pass.

Yes it is good in a sense that it will avoid multiple or spam accounts participating in the bounty. This will filter and limit spamming in order for the real user who join the bounty will be rewarded. The negative side is that user or people who join the bounty campaign will not have the right the privacy of their accounts.

It seems to me that KYC does not always help to remove people with several accounts, because the passport data can be found or bought!

No, I do not agree with this at all, because bounty members do not invest their money. They are not investors, and these requirements do not spread over them.

Of course, I have a distrust of the KYC procedure in the bounty, such as this is done to protect against scammers. The main thing that unexpectedly did not demand KYC in the middle or at the end of the company, it is necessary to specify at once.

I'm basically against KYC. No one knows whether the project is true or fraudulent at the beginning and at the end of the project. Our personal data from Photo scammers can themselves use to pass KYC. If participants follow the rules of bounty campaigning, why should they be identified? To use the participants' data for further fake KYC? I'm against KYC.

As I know KYC( know your customer ) should be only for investor's who invested to the projects 10k usd higher to avoid money laundering activities, since this is a regulations to the government. So I do not agree with this rules because were only promoting to the projects.

I think that bounty needs KYC because some people use several accounts for taking part in campaigns, especially it actual for social media campaigns, but as far as I know in cases when KYC is required some bounty hunters use stranger passports and anyway get tokens. So I think that KYC is a good idea for bounties but it needs improvement

Concerning the bounty, this is not a topic for 5 minutes of discussion, but the КУC is very, very useful thing for crypto currency, but everything is right to less copies, scammers, I fully agree with this)

I agree with you that the use of KCY by bounty hunters can control multiple accounts well when they participate in the bounty.

But some people think it is wrong to provide our personal information in this way.

In as much as the KYC will help minimize double participation, I still do not like that idea because it removes one key feature of the blockchain technology, anonymity, from it

I think that KYC is necessary for bounty to avoid multiple participation and it adds to the image of the company.

I don't participate in any bounties is require the KYC pass, they just promote the project and spread the world, they not the real investors in the project, it only worth little money or worthless, so I don't think they need the KYC, anyway, many scam ICO now in here, how you know they collect your personal information for KYC only?

I disagree that anything in crypto needs kyc. Even exchanges. Most of these information are privileged and can be sold for a lot of money. We are already at risk giving out email addresses and other contact addresses not to talk of giving out passport and pictures to people we don't know. Any bounty that needs kyc is a pass for me. Even airdrops or exchanges. Other ways can be used to catch cheaters.

I agree, if only to avoid multiple accounts. but people like crypto because of the advantages of Anonymous. if there is a kyc, everyone can be tracked. so KYC regulations don't seem right. there are still many ways to solve multi-account problems, like having to include a Telegram account, social media, e-mail and more.

I do not see anything terrible in this, except that my personal data can get into the wrong hands.
And so - gives more formal character to participation in projects, sifts bots, theoretically.
It is incorrect if the need to go through the procedure KYC speak after the end of the project

I agree for the bounty having KYC. But this serves as another problem to all of us. Don't you think? That's what I'm believing but, it will take people that are joining with 2 or more accounts. So, it's a good choice in a way.

In my opinion it is a good idea to require KYC when participating in a bounty program. This will reduce the number of multi accounts used by some cheaters and will be more beneficial for the start up and for the hunters as well.

No, it's called know your customer and we're not customers lol. I don't do any that ask for KYC.

I also support such methods. But, why do not the developers show their documents in this case? and what are the guarantees that your data will not go to third parties?
Such guarantees you no one will give, for this, KYC - this is an additional earnings for the developers of the project.

I believe every bounty campaign has its own rules and regulations which must be adhered to by potential bounty participants. If it has been stated from the outset that kyc is required for bounty reward, it is now up to the individual participant to decide on if to go ahead with it or not. But I think bounty managers should include this from the beginning so that bounty hunters can make their choice.

Avoid such bounty of the company. Passing the KYC procedure, you voluntarily give your documents to unknown people, and if the project turns out to be a fraud, there is a high probability that your documents will get to unknown people. There are already a lot of places where you can buy documents for passing KYC, where do you think they were taken? That's right-merged from the same KYC.

Its just , If you feel that the bounty is worth your identity go for it, If you dont think so just dont submit. Identity is beyond more important than a bounty in my opinion. We are on the internet world and identity theft are very common.

Still did not agree with it.But bounty hunters are forced to do kyc by managers.KYC is mainly introduced for Money laundering i think.Do you think they will do bounties for money laundering.  :D :D  

I do not agree with it. Bounty of KYC is not necessary as it is not necessary and for investors. In general I consider KYC illegal in relation to us. I do not want to transfer to strangers the personal information.

Bounty or ICO does not need kyc except is expressly stated and required by the regulators and the law of the jurisdiction where such ICO is been hosted. Kyc should not be the pre-condition for investing or bounty hunting!

It has a good point that it will eliminate many cheaters, which will benefit us. However, in my opinion, KYC is not necessary for bounty hunters, because they do not invest in the project.

I do not like kyc for bounties.
There are too many scam bounties for that.
You can never be sure what will happen to the data.

Not all bounties program requires KYC

If the people who invest in the ICO are doing KYC, I believe bounty hunters should do kyc, but kyc itself is a piece of crap, contrary to the purpose of the crypto.

I do not agree with this requirement, not because I am against that would fight scams that use bots or just a lot of accounts, but because I do not want to give their personal data in the hands of unknown people to me.

I approve a KYC policy from the point described by the author. But at the same time, it is not safe to provide information about yourself for every project. Also, it takes some time. All these bother me.

I don't agree with it,but it has become a requirement and there is nothing to do. You have to pass kyc if you want to get free tokens or participate in ICO as an investor

I do not think bounties really need kyc. It works without it, as some bounties show. Either way, i will not participate in bounties demanding kyc. I do not give my personal data for that.

In my opinion, the KYC helps bounty to be more stable and make trust for investors and bounty hunters, because of scams everywhere now.

Recently, many governments are calling for the application of KYC's requirements to the crypto-currency markets. And I think this is right because there are often cases of fraud

That's not normal when you give your personal data to scammers that later can sell it on a black market. Crypto is about anonimity so if they want our data they must at least give garantees they will not turn scam tommorow.

First, the KYC check is not carried out in order to get rid of duplicate accounts. Forum participants may well not send their data and bypass this check.
Secondly, in order to get rid of duplicate accounts to violate our anonymity on the forum, it does not quite fit the principles of this forum.
 Thirdly, we are obliged to send our confidential data and copies of our documents to people who are themselves scammers with a probability of 80 percent.
Fourth, the requirement to pass a KYC test from participants in the ICO generosity campaign is generally illegal, as we are not investors in ICO projects.

The reason i do not like giving out my details for any bounty of  a project that asks for KYC from bounty hunters, because you never can tell how your personal data can be licked out if care is not taken. Also, if the manager intends to reduce the rate of multiple accounts, there are other strategies to deploy in order to prevent that. From instance, some proves can be made or you ask every bounty hunter to register on website that would allow IP to be recorded.

It's important for KYCs to reduce the amount of frauds, those who use multiple accounts. Also that way they get to know their auditory which I think is good for their development.

And how exactly is KYC resolve the problem with the fraud? I see no connection between, but using KYC they just kill the anonymity and have everybody's personal data.

this is the right decision on the way that people do not deceive each other and we can honestly distribute their rewards. I will give a positive response to such changes

Yes you are right kyc can reduce multiple accounts, but for me i dont like kyc because the steps are very complicated and i dont like complicated. Also we dont know about the information, is our data safe. But if dont kyc we cant receive our payment so we must do that like or not

Kyc is positiv so many benefits avoid multiple accounts, fraud, etc, i also support this, i just worry about my data, that's it

How can a bounty require kyc, "know your customer',it's meant to be for investors.

Yes you're right KYC is just for investors that's why im not participating on bounties required KYC because i don't feel comfortable providing my identification.

I hate KYC for anything crypto related other than a select few companies in the US that require it, like Coinbase.  Other than that, how can you trust that anyone won't misuse your personal data?

if for safety reason sure need KYC, avoid hacker  :D

I thought same with you. It's the best way to prevent multiple apply. But there are some countries that ban sharing information. That's why Ruby-X bounty participants don't need to do KYC for bounty rewards.
although Ruby-X 6 kinds of bounties are ended, the official service was launched :) Visit our Ruby-X and check the potential of Ruby-X!

Yes i agree, its a effective way to avoiding cheating, but personally im rarely giving my kyc, only if i feel the project is really good, for small project i always avoiding giving my credentials

I think KYC can be used to filter anyone whose trying to cheat on bounty campaign cause sometimes there are cheater that try to steal somebody else bounty reward result by claiming their account.

if I just agree, because kyc is also needed by the development team of a coin or project, with the kyc the transaction of a coin can be monitored and it is unlikely that the coin will be used for things that are not appropriate, because those who have the coin will also not dare to do negative or inappropriate things with the coin.

I am strongly against bounties requesting for KYC because most of these project end up not being successful and will make use of applicant's kyc documents to secure a place in other good project. They can have a limit to the number of applicants needed for a campaign instead of kyc

actually no problems using KYC or not. that certainly I feel that this KYC only as additional features only. not mandatory in all its bounty. so don't be too taken dizziness.

Well, if KYC were strictly needed for a project to succeed we would see every single campaign implementing it, but they are just a few doing it, so no, it is not necessary, more like whim or an obstacle

I agree, I do not see anything wrong with that. and the scammers will pass by the project where there is a KYC. consequently, payments to honest hunters will be more

KYC is an excellent procedure for investors and participants of the bounty. This is a good way to reduce multi-account. Nowadays many once project fraud and if no stricter rules certainly such thing will continue to happen. But we also have to be careful because the project that uses the KYC is not necessarily been successful.

Of course, Bounty needs KYC, but there is no guarantee that after that your data will not get to the scammers so that it does not pass everyone's business.

I understand that sooner or later we will still begin to actively use crypto-currencies and many countries will oblige their citizens to use KYC in order to have access to crypto-currencies in general, but today it is not right.

I participated in several bounty campaigns in which it was necessary to pass KYC and they were very successful. It seems to me that KYC helps protect both the investor and the project organizers. By the way, there wouldn’t participate people with multi accounts..

Last time I dont agree doing KYC for bounties , but seeing lots of cheaters and scammers doing multiple account just to cheat the bounty. Then doing so is really necessary , but the problem now scammers are innovative they fake ID's so I guess manager need next level verification like providing video verification of the bounty hunter

I don't think it's efficient. If it's for investor it's fine. You need all that verification in case someone try to take what's not their's. But for bounty hunters, i don't think it's neccessary. But even if it's really needed, don't make it so hard to verify. We don't need that.

I don't understand  why some bounties will require kyc from. Bounty hunters before receiving their rewards.  The annoying part is that,  they don't inform hunters from the beginning of the campaign that they will  need to do kyc,  they only come. Up with it at the end of the bounty.  I think that might be a way of denying hunters their rewards because some hunters may not pass their kyc. 

I agree with you . This is must in every new ICO and who doesn't want to do KYC he can not get tokens. Regulations are strict now days and it will get worse so all of you bounty hunters prepare in advance passport and photos and utility bill and you are all set

I think its not very necesarry for bounty hunters. I have no idea what are the team doing with our information. KYC is required for investor team needs to know who join them. I hope less bounty using KYC to claim our reward.

You have to be very careful if you are submitting KYC to a unkown person on the internet.  There are some exchanges and people you can trust but you have to do a lot of research to make sure they are safe.

I agree. Participating in a bounty with multiple accounts is just plain fraud and frowned upon by everyone. I think KYC is a good method to implement to prevent such things and open more doors for other participants who want to make a great deal of cash in participating in bounty campaigns.

Not only KYC is a good method to prevent fraud but also it helps in maintaining country laws. Many countries nowadays urge to implement KYC norms, thus making the project more trustworthy and viable. Also, some projects don't provide their service to selected few countries, and KYC helps them to maintain their own rules and norms.

This proves a legitimate and honesty of every participants who joined the bounty campaign. Some countries prohibited their residents in participating the campaign, that's why the owner of the project who resides on that country will require a "know your customer" strategy. As mentioned fraud and other criminal acts will be controlled if the implementation will be successful for every participants who van comply the requirements.

Yes I agree with you thought but kyc is not a small thing when it's use on international purpose so privacy of kyc is also more important.

I think it's very nice because now many multi accounts are everywhere. And with the bounty project that uses the KYC is definitely better and can be successful. And many now new projects already implemented using KYC. But should still be cautious and do the analysis before joining the project.

KYC verification is not performed to eliminate individuals who have multiple accounts in one ICO signature campaign. In principle, the ICO team in general whether you are using one or more accounts at all. These are forum rules, not theirs. It is only important for the team that you send useful messages promoting their ICO project.
The KYC check is carried out to prevent investors from laundering dirty money. Therefore, only investors should pass this test. Neither the United States, nor China, nor other countries require ICO teams to require KYC to be tested by participants of the ICO generosity campaign. This is purely an excess of its authority by the ICO team, because in this case our right to confidentiality is violated. In my country there is a law that clearly states that only public authorities have the right to breach of confidentiality in cases provided by law.

I agree if the bounty gives the rules the participants must make a KYC, because this year for some people it is very detrimental, but for me this is very good because it will avoid cheating that has multiple accounts, but KYC does not guarantee that people will not cheat, only for sure each policy has good or bad, all depends on how to implement the rules as agreed.

yes, bounty requires kyc to be more secure from scams. I am sure that the existence of Kyc Bounty will be more safely controlled

I think it's a very accurate move. Many users are trying to trick the system with more than one account and KYC prevents this.

there are many factors why bounty hunters are required to fill in KYC, as you said, one of them is that there are many farmers who use multiple accounts. this is worrying, look at the board bounty on each ico thread. there are many who use signatures and don't do anything other than just social media tasks that are reported on ico threads. this is bad

For me, it is great that bounty have Kyc to reduce people that abusing the bounty.
KYC also help participant to be at ease because KYC have a big impact in trusting the campaign.

I could say its 50:50, i could agree to reduce the number of participant of the bounties, and disagree cause the bounty participant aren't investors. They get the coins because that are the reward for helping to promote the project.

I'm not a fan of giving personal information to anyone.This market is more new! why would I give my personal information to anyone else for the reward ?

I am also agree. Because a lot of people here on forum was have all differences like scammer, lier, cheater and also good person. So I am not agree on the meaning of this initials letter because this is KYC/KnowYourCustomer because we'rent customer. I wish for who creates of this policy will change the name. Or make different form for bounty hunter.

KYC is a good policy to avoid multiple accounts or the use of other accounts in bounties.So if you are not a cheater you will be ok with that

No I do not agree that bounties need kyc, even though we are all trying to make sure that there are not multiple sign ups, kyc is not the way to go. if you are doing kyc for bounties then I would advice you to stop since you are effectively giving out your information to people that you do not know. Trust me you do not want to end up being the victim of identity theft.

Very often projects require to pass the verification of identity and there is nothing wrong if it was said initially. I usually just check with the team at the expense of verification of the user

not all gifts need kyc there are many gifts that don't use kyc if asked why also do not know maybe for more convincing security or other things

I think that the introduction of the KYC for the bounty will not eliminate the scammers but will force them to buy fake documents. In general this will contradict the anonymity of the crypto currency.

But buying documents is an additional investment, and if it doesn't eliminate scammers completely, it can help reduce their quantity. One can buy 10 fake documents, but not 1000. It's quite stupid and just won't pay off.

I doubt that it is a good idea. Manager easily keep track of written posts or page on Facebook that the man before him. And most importantly for the project is to accelerate the sale of tokens. what would the bounty campaign touting and tell the investors about the project, the developers monitor all data from coming to their investors and so far the bounty is very popular and is a great advertising tool. So I think our problems do not excite them, the main thing to build your pool.

I don't have a problem with it all because this is one of the rules and policies of the gifts given by the project manager so that whatever rules are given, of course we have to follow them and for KYC the bounty certainly helps us to be more organized in following the project because so far there may still be a layman for some people but all of that will go along with the passage of time so that each project must pass the KYC.

I agree here if it is reasonable. If you are only receiving 10-100$ then doing KYC is not worth it. That's why sometimes I don't really do bounty with KYC because it is not worth the time if it is only small amount of money.

Indeed, we usually see what we get. If it's not comparable why do we have to do KYC. Like you said that it would be a waste of time. I also just found a project that must be KYC but the bounty has not been completed, the calculation has not been completed. So I will automatically do it. how about you if that happens.

The use of the procedure for KYC bounty necessarily has advantages and drawbacks. The advantages of using the procedure could reduce KYC, multi-account, and acts of fraud. But we don't know that the personal data I submit, whether it is safe or not. And this is that many people are hesitant to use KYC.

there is no harm in bounty requiring KYC because it is also a policy imposed by the development team from the bounty, yet in KYC most don't need to fill in the personal details that are too detailed, and also now most KYC can use driving licenses only and in a driving license even though there is no personal data that is too detailed and has a validity period, and one more thing, in my opinion, KYC is used only to find out if the participant in the bounty is actually a person or just a BOT.

if the bounty doesn't matter, as long as it's not an airdrop campaign! I doubt the Airdrop campaign must include KYC.

I totally agree with you mate, and you get a lot point here.
Also it would stop all people have intention to make a malicious activity.

It’s good to have KYC cause it’s starting to look like the majority of those that don’t do KYC are scammers. Just like when you’re trading and looking for which exchanger to join, it’s always recommended to join the ones that are requesting KYC and also being regulated, cause others that don’t do that are usually scammers. So it’s good for ICOs to have KYC.

You are a little confused with the gift of God scrambled eggs. The KYC check has as its task the prevention of laundering dirty money and it is not intended so that someone does not have several accounts on this forum. For such states as the USA and China, which actually became the initiators of such a check, believe me, how many accounts will there be anyway. Therefore, KYC verification should be applied only to investors. I don’t like at all that some ICO teams that do not pass any checks themselves and are more likely to be fraudsters violate my right to confidentiality, and using fraud when, without prior agreement on the conditions of joining the ICO signature campaign, us as bounty hunters, undergo such a KYC check at the end of the ICO or even after its completion. The meaning of such a test is completely distorted and is used only to ensure that part of the bounty hunters do not pay out the tokens they have earned.

gone are the days when alot of investors pump money to invest in ICO and most ICO reach hardcap so they have no problem when bounty hunters dump their token because percentage allocated to them is very small but today its very rear to see most ico reaching hardcap so most ICO are looking for ways to prevent dashing out free token to hunter that doesnt merit it and KYC is one of the effective way to do that. some ICO are operating in countries that crypto is regulated so they need kyc.

Although I don't fully support the idea of revealing ones identity in the name of KYC however its becoming very worrisome these days as cheating has become order of the day, thus KYC will checkmate all these forms of untrustworthy mostly associated with bounty hunters.

I dont agree with this making distribution too hassle and time consuming for participants but still its their rules as a ICO initiators. If you dont agree with them just dont join with their bounties. Still lots of potential projects  out there that dont require KYC on their Bounty.

Now, most of the companies are asking for KYC in order to get a bounty reward because they need to follow the audit procedure in order to track where the tokens have been distributed. Whether KYC is required or not we don't know but surely we have submitted the documents in order to get the bounty reward.

It is rather ridiculous and tragic that ICO teams, which themselves do not undergo any verification and often simply disappear with the collected funds of investors, also demand that they provide our confidential information. The paradox is that we are not their clients, because we do not invest in their projects. A client is one who pays his money and such clients are investors. The ICO team pays us for the services we provide to advertise their ICO projects, so they are our clients. Do our customers require us to pass a KYC check?

Agreed but kyc is still rare bounty manager that apply may be more find bounty manager that requires enter POA. Just yesterday I found bounty a reset their rules because a lot of fake accounts or multiple accounts. It is actually very detrimental to us who fair play and kyc required to be more fair again.

If you are seeing any bounty campaign that requires kyc from the participants then you need to stay away from such a bounty, so many people are so willing to give out their private information to people they don't know all in the name of getting some free coins without considering the fact that these informations can be sold on the black market to hackers

KYC for bounty i am not support this because i think need kyc for their customer who purchase their token as a bounty hunter i am not their customer i am just promote their project. so i think no need kyc for bounty hunter.

I think it is very risky for bounty if you use KYC to prevent multiple accounts, it's just that you might be able to use KYC without an ID card, maybe the proof of address is enough, or using an IP detector

I don't think there's any need to reveal your identity right now. I always feel uncomfortable about this and I think that my data at any time can disappear somewhere that can not be pleasant to me

I definitely do not agree with this procedure. For me, confirming my identity is not the most desirable action. I would just like to participate in the bounty and not reveal my identity

In principle, to some extent I agree with this requirement, for a bounty company this is useful, it will remove multi-accounts, but on the other hand you transfer your personal information into the wrong hands and you don’t know how it can be used

No, it is managers job to remove such entries and to remove spammers from campaign and I don't feel  comfortable to share my information. Good portion of these information will go to scammers, they will sell it on dark market and you could get into trouble when they use data.

I believe that KYC doesn't help the fight with scammers. I don’t like to share my personal data. No one guarantees me the confidentiality and security of this information. Already now my email is filled with spam, because in many spreadsheets this information was visible and accessible. And it’s no secret that you can buy everything in the Internet and documents too.I think that when hunter didn't get the verification  KYC -it's another opportunity not to pay for the work of the bounty hunters in the project.

Many ICO projects require KYC, but after completing the task of bounty hunters, they want the kyc, and I think this is ridiculous. I don't find it right to change the rules later.

If there is guaranteed data security, do it. but if it's not there, just ignore it.
I was shocked that airdrop was using Kyc. it's funny to claim the $ 5 payment must fill in KYC. ignore it.

I`m not agree that bounties are need KYC because KYC is not need in the work of bounty participants maybe the team who create the ICOs projevt must be post publicly their identity as prof that their project is good so, in that point no reason for bounties hunters to submitted their own identity.

my opinion is that kyc is needed for sales where we know that some countries prohibit their citizens,
for bounty participants may use kyc or not it is legitimate depending on the bounty manager who applies, all decisions have their own value when applied
to bounty participants.

Need kyc to participate in ico.But in the bounty I don't think it is necessary.Because some of the rewards were originally issued slowly.Progress will be slower when it is done with kyc.

why bounty do require ico ? simply because bounty is still asociated with ico  and it will be more faster for the to distribute the rewards because they will already know that they only paying for eligle participants that have passed the kyc process .  

now if you dont like kyc then you are welcome to ignore them because you arent forced either to join them ,   besides there are still lots of bounties that are not implementing this new rule's .

i also prefer bounties and airdrops that doesnt have a kyc because they are more easier to join and i dont also have a passport or a drivers license .

The bounty that has a KYC requirements are those project token which I think is centralized token but I know not majority of them is like that, because as for me it is not necessary, in fact, majority of the bounties here are not actually implementing that rules because there are still project here are can still give payment to their participants after the project has been done.

a bounty that requires kyc is normal, for me it is very reasonable with the current conditions of the forum. Moreover, many participants bounty violated the campaign rules, such as doubling accounts. even though it is already prohibited in the rules. in my opinion the bounty that uses Kyc is very good. it will limit participants who want to commit fraud.

Kyc is only needed for investors but if the bounty hunter is very good and bad, I am very afraid that my identity will be used by people who are not good-willed, if the good side of the program in the campaign program is true to reduce multiple accounts.

Yes, its good for both investors and bounty hunters. It will help to reduce the use of multiple accounting by those bounty hunters who have been made the use of it.

Projects could care less about multiple bounty entries, KYC is done only because they are obligated by the law or they just afraid of potential problems in case of not doing kyc.

The Kyc program is great for reducing the number of account users who have participated in prizes, but in my opinion whether the identity of the hunter is not misused by irresponsible people, which I worry about is like that.

This people if they really want to abuse the bounty can use fake names and fake documents.
For a project, their concern should only be the advertising and they should not get the personal information of those who help them, we are in crypto
and we value anonymity.

I support the kyc procedure because with its help the conditions for all participants in the bounty are equalized, that is, many people are now using multi-accounts trying to slay more tokens, it is for this that I support this procedure

It depends on the company and location to do KYC for bounty because there are locations that requires KYC for their paper works or the team wants to avoid illegal activities.

No I'm not agree with KYC , I would rather to keep my personal information safe , I never know who are they and where are going to use my KYC , I think KYC needs to be replaced with Skype interview or some other ways.

Skype Interviews also not safe, since its not encrypted in any way. Also, maybe you are being recorded and im sure they will ask to see your ID or Passport in camera.

no. no, KYC or Skype the same is absolutely not safe for bounty participants because it's better to always protect your identity and I don't think they need to know who or what your face is. KYC is only needed for investors, not for bounty participants because investors are more important than prize participants. yes I also disagree with KYC for bounties.

I know that cryptocurrencies are about privacy. But in current times, taking into account multiple attempts to influence bounty results for one’s profit (multi accounts, bots flooding, cross-liking your other accounts and so on) KYC is the way to keep all the things in the right place. Just think about bounty as a job. If you want to get paid, you have to reveal yourself.

Now, most of the companies are asking for KYC in order to get the bounty because companies want to keep track of coins allocated to the bounty and mostly in some campaign people are joining in bounty with multiple accounts.
