Bitcoin Forum

I'm doing some research on bounty hunting and I would like any information bounty hunters and campaign managers might be able to offer me. I'm looking for your experiences, earnings successes and failures, experiences with scams and fraudulent projects, your outlook for bounty hunting for the immediate and long term future, etc. Any posts would be appreciated and any information you offer would be held confidential. You can reply in this thread or PM if you prefer. Thanks for any help you can give me.

Experience: 50/50. There are bounties that I got that skyrocketed the price. However, I was also in a bounty that didn't end very well. Its because of some KYC technical issues on my part. I wouldn't consider it a scam project though, maybe I just misunderstood the KYC proceedings. The future is really bright for bounty hunters, but then again, the downside is that you really don't know if you are promoting a scam until it exited so its really like a gamble as well. Just imagine promoting it for 4-8 weeks and expecting something out of it and then it turns out to be a scam. OUCH!!!

Though I may not be an authority in bounties, but part of the challenges experienced atimes is in reporting of social tasks. If the bounty has a means of automatically tracking the activities of participants and verify and record same it would be really wonderful. On the part of the project, a handful of the bounties I participated in unfortunately ended up being listed at about 25 percent of the ICO price which often times isn't too rewarding for the pain taking by the hunters and even more so the investors

You have to try it on yourself. When you are doing bounties in bull market then it is very profitable and if it is profitable, then you are doing your bounty job well. But in the bear market you are so tired and bounty campaigns are not making you happy ;).

Its no need for it to be confidential yet bounty hunting is the most common thing on this forum. Lets talk about the general things that do mostly happen on each participant. First on earnings, I would tell you this that money making with bounties wont really give you any guarantee that you will make money on the end of the bounty program because not all projects would always end up on having a happy ending. High chance of scam and not getting paid is there this is why research is a must to seek out on projects which you would plan to promote.

Choose a bounty that you think will certainly do and is legit.

---

A bounty that has a real product and possibility that it will be used to their platform for real.

---

Determining on what only the best are costs time. And not all the time you can find the bounty that will have a good ICO price.

Bounty the company is a very simple way to earn cryptocurrency without investing. I think you should try this. From my experience, I can say that this can really make money. I was lucky with some projects, but also many turned out to be scammers. I try to carefully select projects, but no one is immune from this, so do not worry if the project is fraudulent. Just keep doing your job.

What’s the main topic of your research? Is it about how profitable to become a bounty hunter?
Anyway, bounty hunting is really profitable considering the job that needed in one bounty campaign but yeah there are still cases that you will experience some loss on that especially if its a failed project or scam project.

Crypto space is crowded, many scam ICO's are out in the market. One has to do thier research before signing up. Bounty payments are getting delayed due to inexperince bounty manager. I would say on an average 2-3 are good bounties out of 10.

I joined more than 70 bounty campaign 3 months ago, just Twitter campaign. First, its was need to well manage or it all will be screw up so I used google spreadsheets to manage it. It all working great but until my account has been suspended with no reason so I quit. I've just back to bounty again with signature campaign from Module. So my experiences here is:

- You need to learn/know how to manage as much bounty campaign as you could (for me is using spreadsheets for bounty information  / report). You will need to fill as much detailed information to the sheets that you can if you don't want to miss the stake you will have in each campaign.
- Concentrated when working in bounty especially in Social media campaign.
- The hardest part will be registration / finding bounty campaign to join. You can find good bounty from manager like: AmaZix, btcltcdigger ...
 

Of course your account have been suspended by twitter, that's because you are either use multiple twitter accounts or spam on twitter for your weekly twitter stake's sake.

Work hard to join the bounty hunting campaign and you will be happy to receive the reward. You just have the knowledge and get money. Choose carefully to make a lot of money

I may be considered a new bounty hunter,,, I am not sure. I have been participating in signature campaigns for a very long time. My longest and biggest was with Coinpayments as managed by Lauda but since that ended, I have been trying two different bounty programs. Only still it is for signature on this forum, so I do not know if that counts.

My experience is as follows. Lauda's coinpayment campaign was the best. Paid every week, then every 2 weeks, and only in Bitcoin.

Then now I tried 2 different token programs, paid not by the managers who are actually very good, but by the programs themselves. Experience so far = not good. I ended 1 campaign and now they have not paid for a long time and keep making excuses like KYC. Now on my second one with same managers but different projects. I shall see if this works out. If not, I will return to Bitcoin campaigns only with forum managers like Lauda. But those are very hard to find unfortunately.

first of all forget about quick earnings. You will need to be patient for 3-5 months. If earlier 60% of the campaigns were successful (they closed their goals and went to the stock exchanges), now this figure is 40%. This means that you need to either take more campaigns into work or agree to a smaller salary.

friend now everything is very complicated :( instead of laughing, people want to cry but hopefully everything will go in the way and we all will be laughing for this calm and good project we have to research the reward campaigns are hard to find the good one

I think that beyond the ICO sphere is the future. Today the market is bearish, a lot of fraud, from here such sad results from bounty hunters. Once the market starts recovery, when there is not so much scam, then it will be good

My suggestion to you in doing bounty hunting is do not expect too much as expecting will only give you disappointments when you already got your coin/tokens even if you got the good bounties out there because it is a hit or miss kind of work and by lowering your expectation you would strive to do more and you will not felt that you got scammed.

playing in a bounty hunter campaign may be difficult right now because many projects are deceptive or projects that fail. depends on how we choose a project.

being a bounties is very easy to work on, because we just have to wait until the token is distributed and we can sell it at the crypto market. but the bounty hunter takes quite a long time so we have to do a lot of projects.

It was long before when participating in bounty was profitable but today it is not much profit as you said in the end only we can know whether we will get income from this bounty or it ends up as loss of time. Even if got paid bounty income is low due to lot of applications joining and bounty split gets low.

You really have to be careful which bounty campaign you are participating in. There are a lot of scams in this area and there are more every day. Before you join a bounty campaign, try to find out about the project you want to promote. Check if it's a scam or not. If it is proven that it is a scam project and you still advertise, it can happen that you get red trust for it. Sometimes it is good to pay attention to the bounty manager. There are good and bad bounty managers. While this is not a guarantee that a project is not a scam, it is still a good sign when a project can pay an experienced bounty manager. Hope that helps you a little.  ;)

Thanks everybody for all your comments.

I've actually done about a dozen bounties myself (mostly last September to December) and have had similar experiences as the rest of you. I'm doing research for an article I'm working on, mostly on describing bounty hunting to people who are not familiar with it.



I was wondering how the market for bounty hunters was doing compared to the end of last year. It seems like it's a different market now. It looks like it's harder to make real money doing it. Anyone doing these since years ago, like 2014-2016? I would imagine that was a Golden Age for this.



This was my expectation and it's the experience I had. Out of 12 or so campaigns I did, 1 was really good, 3 or 4 were ok to good, and the rest paid almost nothing, or failed, or were scams.

I'm wondering if regulation by the SEC (and other government agencies) will actually make these bounty campaigns  better once the frauds are cleared out. I suppose that's what I'm looking for here - is there still a future in bounty hunting? How much do you expect it to change and in what ways?

As I think bounty work is not easy, when you need a lot of time to find good campaigns and not scams, when I start participating for months but not get the reward as expected. You even have to fight for the right benefits for yourself.

I think that only half of the bounties in which I participate will go ico and go on, and all the rest can not even go through the ico stage.

I take part in 100+ Bounties till now.

I always do some research before participating in any bounty program even then there are few projects which did not paid to bounty hunters.

So do you work , everything will be adjusted later.

Try to work with quality rather than quantity.

maybe every bounty hunter has a different experience. but I think you should try it yourself so you can feel difficult or like playing bounty hunter. if you only listen to the story of all the bounty hunters you will not know how it feels to get results or not get paid.
but I said that I had always been paid bounties and remained with what I had promised. because every time before following the bounty I always check the project.

That is helpful, but the way things go in crypto,,, it is normally just best that people learn on their own, because things change so quickly. Bounties were hot last year and so were airdrops but as more people got in and a lot of cheaters took tokens and dumped them, people realized this old way of doing things were becoming less and less effective. I think people also when they depend on information of others, they tend to blame other people when things do not go well.

Always remind people to take responsibility for themselves.

Is there a future in bounty? Probably yes, but it has to deal with the big issues of cheaters who use fake traffic and audience to make it look like they are popular.

Try to check when that project will be on exchanges(or released/unlocked). Check their hardcap, token supply, and try to guess what their total market cap could be.(thinking of its rivals maybe)

Then look at their professionalism, are they looking good, can they succeed the project? You don't need them to success, can they just manage the ico and exchange things good enough? Then ok, go for it. This is my view on this thing.

Bounty always requires diligence and patience. The value you get is indefinite, it depends on the rank, condition, situation of the market ... any choice must be careful. It does not only involve you but it also affects many investors. Try the experience at bountyportals. I believe you will have a positive outlook on bounty.

In part, the bounty is also part of the crypto ecosystem. Based on that, the value of labor you receive will depend on the general trend of the market. With unstable condition in the past, some participants have lost patience. Therefore, carefully define your goals and passion to pursue this task.

Bounty program are not good healthy income.

I'm not using multiple account even now. I think it's happened because I'm still using mass follower to increase my following and it could lead to suspended. I spread my tweets all day and I don't think it could lead to suspended with my timing when posting.

I am not good in finding the good ICOs but if you want to be a bounty hunter please make note that it is not a job so never rely on bounty hunting for all your family needs and most of the bounties were scams and the few remaining were hardly ever listed in exchanges so making money from the bounties is really hard.

I think that at this time there is too much skam, and while the bounty is not a stable income.

bounty is a part crypto community ecosystem for build strong community from some new coin/token, for become an bounty hunter like your explain above, bounty hunter have many experience like the project scam, fraudulent or legit project.
but the main thing in doing bounty is that we can become part of the blockchain world revolution besid we can get profit from participate in bounty program

But can you tell actual methods of recovering good bounties from real scams ? Maybe your ideas are something especial  ;)

And how about the result? Is good Bounty Manager can guarantee for bounty hunter?

As the bounty hunters you to have a knoledge about the crypto and the ico and you should always follow the rules i have so many bounty i participate and some of them are scam but as my moto " try and try until you succeed" and thanks god im earning on crypto now not that much but its really great to have success story on ico.

being a bounty hunter is not that easy. Sometimes you need to study or review first the ICO you're planning to join in to. It's a really bad feeling if the company you're advertising for 4-8 weeks would turn out to be a scam at the end, so choosing the right campaign would be the best thing to do.

For short term or immediate hunting, After finishing the bounty campaign for about 4-8 weeks you can instantly sell your token rewards for a quick money or:
go for the long term, after receiving the tokens you just hodl it for around a year or until the price skyrockets and expect bigger profit out of it.

Bounty doesn't always get success. There are also many dev who ventured themselves by not paying the promised wages. If you need more information than me, Maybe I can give you a little experience through PM

Self-research results are more satisfied that you can be more confident about choosing a bounty project, but looking for a good bounty is now very difficult, like finding a needle in a straw.

All of your questions and queries can really be found on this forum. You can search up lots of threads similar to your question which no one would able to PM you this matter because this forum has it all when it comes to informations you do seek out. If you do find bounty campaigns to join on then you should do your own research and just be sure that to join legitimate ones.

I think at the moment, downward trend also affect to bounty hunters as well :). It's really difficult to find out a good bounty campaign to join at the moment although there are so many good bounty managers in this forum cause sometime bounty campaigns managed by truthworthy bounty managers are not really good :). For example, BuzzShow bounty campaign which managed by Yahoo is so fucking terrible.

For me the best advice tha could I give to you is limited since I was started not so long and I have a quite little experience about bounty campaign. First thing to do is to choose a good bounty maneger to follow his activities and achievements for example look at his profile he has have positive trust. So it means this is a good indication of a good and trustworthy bounty manager. Why we are more specific to bounty manager? It is Because the bounty manager is the important part of a bounty campaign because if bounty manager is scammer I think all your sacrifices and hardworks become useless and worthless.

some bounty campaigns pay with worthless tokens, and some of them are scams, only a small payment from the project bounty, is this because the market is down

if the project is legit and the token your got are not worth, you can just wait, its going to take years but then its your option. there are really team that isn't so generous in  distributing tokens. chronobank team i remember did an ICO and bounty campaign which the participants complained about how many tokens they got after it. its maybe the reason there isn't much support to the project even today.

It completely depends upon the project we choose because it is not easy to find the best project out there which has potential in terms of development. So before joining any bounty people should research a lot about the project and their capability to reach the project to the next level.

I fully agree with your words, if you are lucky to find a good bounty manager with an excellent reputation,high rank and great experience,then follow such a person.

Almost lot of the ico projects are getting down after the ico. So I have experienced success and failure in bounties.

When the bear market as now ico projects are losing a lot. The bounty managers as well as us, are looking forward to the project will be successful. Choosing the right projects right now is based only on luck

My opinion is that very soon there will be a lot of bounty hunters who will not be able to wait out the difficult market situation. Bounty managers will more closely monitor fraudsters.

Bounties is an extremely basic approach to gain cryptocurrency  without contributing. I figure you should attempt this. From my experience, I can state this can truly profitable.some projects are scam but dont to be worried you just do your job

You have to try it on yourself. When you are doing bounties in bull market then it is very profitable and if it is profitable, then you are doing your bounty job well. But in the bear market you are so tired and bounty campaigns are not making you happy Wink.

You have to try it on yourself, find the project that you want,research about the project, check the bounty pool and the community itself. It would help also if you check the ico ratings of the project, but you must  keep in your mind also that not all bounty campaigns are successful even the project is ike 100%.

I think research is not enough and you should have enough experience and luck. In my first experience in joining a bounty campaign, I didn't even do any research and still manage to get a profitable amount of money. From there, I had clues on which type of campaigns you should join.

It doesn't matter which situation of market will you be able to join bounty campaigns. If it is bull market then you can make big profits because of the higher prices/value of major coins but if you do bounties at bear market then it is doesn't matter if you can have low profits, the important is you make profits our of doing bounties instead of doing nothing and wasting your time on useless things.

I think you have to experience to learn from experience for myself. And I see in the forum there are quite a lot of posts about the experience join the bounty campaign you can find out

The bounty mission is a form that comes with the ICO, and now the ICO is facing the suspicion of many investors, which is very bad for our hunters. When the ICO is no longer of concern, the bounty mission may Will disappear!

In order to understand what a bounty campaign is, you need to participate in them for your own. I think it's best to start with the campaigns on the forum and social media campaigns, because they are the easiest..

Nothing is certain when joining the bounty and airdrop, That bounty campaign is good does not really very difficult to answer.

Bounty campaigns for me is not specifics when it comes to earnings, lately due to the market crash, my earnings becomes unstable and it gives me less profits, all the tokens becomes meaningless, and apart of that, some coins becomes scam at the end of the campaign, so for me, i would it 50/50, 50% for profits earned equivalent to efforts, and 50% of it will not be paid and are scam. So this opportunity, if for the hardworking people like me haha.

I think the altcoins of the projects will show their true price only in 3-4 years, when the projects will finish their road maps. Those who wait will receive very good benefits

unfortunately the market is currently falling, the coins that you receive from the bounty campaign are very cheap certainly very influential on bounty hunter income.

I do  have an experience with a scam ICO called C project which came up with a bounty program in last December. Finally the guy who managed the bounty ran away without payment. I can not still come out of it as we worked a lot on it. I then always had to look at the things i drafted in the below post before choosing up an ICO to participate. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4993045.msg45036172#msg45036172

As already was mentioned above it is better to work on bounties from trusted managers who have a good reputation and had multiple successful projects.

please why some bounty hunters dump token at cheaper rate? anyone to clarify this for me

Bounty must now be properly seen in depth information. Because now many bounties are scam, bounty paused, etc.

if my advice is looking for a bounty that has a lot of partners, because if I think it is possible the project will succeed.

For example, I decided for myself that it is better to enter into projects that have already collected at least Soft-cap. You can be sure that at least the tokens will already be paid. But again, the probability that this Scam project is of course great! He once casually on the Bench it went, did not expect that he can, was a great idea,and even the product beta was ready, and in the end the whole page is a Scam! Over time, participating in hundreds of projects you begin to distinguish a little, a live project or not!

That right if we truly want to earn we are the one who will find an information about how to be a bounty hunters or how to participate in certain bounty project.  Because experience is better than any other.. We can participate in bounty campaign to know how it works..  Because participating in it is really profitable...  Though the market is in bad condition right now we can used this situation to learn more..  Just take a risk always..

Some maybe profitable and some may not. On my own experience when I was a newbie I just keep on doing bounties for the most part. I find it more time wasted when I was scammed but on the later part It thought me well and keeping an eye on the project. Doing your own research is imperative and a must.

now a very bad situation in the ico market. a lot of scam projects and very small payments for the bounty

I have participated in more than 100 bounty till now.

I do some research before join any bounty program and this gives me good result most of the time.

I have been working for countless bounties since last yr., I would say its like working or promoting ico projects in thin air .. There is about 50% real from 100% ico projects that was able to pay ..and few were sh*tcoins or of low value..
Thats why I am more careful in choosing the right bounty that would worth of my time and effort..

Although I am not a skilled bounty hunter, I can share some of my experience with you!
Some bounty missions that do not record bets are false!
It is also false to mark the rewards too big! For example, reward $10000, which is almost impossible!

If you join the bounty hunter team you will have a lot of questions for the admins of the bonuses and I'm sure the question we are having is whether ico has a soft cap?

Highly agree with Amazix,,, I will add here that they also give very good rewards if you can help identify bounty cheaters (just like bountycloud). My only issue with the bounties is after Amazix completes contracts with partners, then the ICO takes over distribution and that can take forever. So basically with Amazix bounties you get very smooth management and counting, but must be patient to wait for the tokens as those are distributed by the ICO team. I only found this out after joining recently, thought it was just me, but I chat with other members and they tell me this always happens.

Very strict rules in Amazix, but it is like joining signature campaign on the forum. The more strict, the better the manager. Seems I always work for the strict managers,,, like Lauda on bct and Amazix on other bounties. But for me, it is worth it for the top quality management.

I am very glad to meet you. Most of my choice of bounty missions will be determined by observing the number of followers, because good projects will always be noticed by many people!

From my experience, I can say that this can really make money
You can make money from bounty but you need a main job
good luck

I started bounty since March this year, according to my experience the most important thing in the bounty is to follow all the rules and tasks given,
because every bounty manager has different rules and different task, another important thing is to monitor the progress of the bounty that we follow, because sometimes bounty managers change the rules in the middle of bounty,
the last case I found was many bounty participants did not get tokens reward because they did not meet requirements for bounty reward, some of them did not monitor the progress of the bounty, they felt they were just waiting for payment because the bounty was over, even though The developer gives the condition that the bounty participants must register on their platform in order to get bounty reward

Why some bounty hunters sell there tokens at cheaper price? Can anybody tell me why

I think earnings on bounty will not have a future in 1 year, because there are a lot of projects and unique ideas on the market and it will be very difficult to create a really high-quality project with a good idea. I think that unsuccessful projects will be more and more, and earnings on bounty even less.

I just want to start bounty, but I need the ones that fetch more gain in the end as well as I know it won't be easy.
Maybe some ongoing ones now
Thanks

It is not only not easy but it is very difficult, you won't be able to earn enough daily living if if only rely on the rewards from the bounty campaign. I am doing this but do not appreciate it.

You can focus on the more popular bounties as much as possible. Everyone is unanimously optimistic, so it must be extraordinary. In addition, you can follow some famous bounty managers, which is also a very convenient method.

I am worried about the future of the bounty mission, why? Because the bounty mission was created with the ICO project, but now the ICO project is being destroyed by the fraudster, when no one wants to believe in the ICO, the bounty mission may disappear!

Bountie hunting is getting harder week after week.
The scams become more and the payment less.
Finding a good project is not easy, but possible.
Good luck and have fun with bountie hunting.

I agree, bounty hunting now is not like before that is very rewarding and worthy. I can see that bounty hunting now is not that good anymore. There are ICO projects that are finished yet did not distribute stakes and some have paused their campaigns. You left hanging and just waiting for them what to do next. It takes three months to wait for token distribution. Discouraging actually.

Because they don't care about the price of these tokens. They are only interested in usd when they sell will be how much. So all the bounty hunters are dumping things to get usd to spend on their lives

Actually, not really. Most tokens people earn from bounties are only exchangeable on the ETH platforms, so traded via Ether pairs. So they are all actually dumping ERC20 for Ether. This helps to explain why Ether price is also struggling to reach $300. Because there is no real buying activity for Ether, just all for their own tokens. I know it does not make sense either,,, because demand should create a price increase, but in the case of ETH people are realizing they are just mainly used for ICOs and dumping tokens. This has to change soon if ETH wants to survive.

Although I am not a professional bounty hunter, I also have some skills to find a task.
1. View task time and rewards (if the time is too long or the reward is too big then I will give it up)
2. View the project white paper (see if the white paper is neat and detailed)

Try it the best option, and learn from it, since people has different experience on joining campaign, some are happy some get frustrated, but if you want to try a manager on your first or second try, try needmoney, check on his projects...

There are some goof managers also, try them and you'll know more things about campaign...
Join campaign on other sites also..

      Bounty campaigns can be very profitable, but you have to be lucky not to have SCAM projects. For more consistent profits, try translating and signing campaigns. Social media campaigns have once been profitable, but with the entry of many participants, earnings have fallen sharply. We need to have enough patience until we get to reinvest profits. It may be a few years, even.

can i know why some bounty hunters usually sell there token at lesser price? this has common selling there hard working token cheap on low rate

I suppose it is so because they are not interested in the project's future and don't want to make some research. It is easier to sell quickly and receive some convertible blue chips (ETH, BTC). And honestly it is sometimes not a bad idea.

most bounty participants after getting tokens immediately sell them because they don't want to take speculation in holding their tokens, most of them ask in bitcoin, ethereum or doge.
because now there are so many projects that don't reach and end scams

Life of a bounty hunters are not just as easy after all. The more participants the less we get. Some of it payments dont come after it finished sometimes it will lead to scam projects. Project activities is getting harder than before. More compitetions from bow a days.

Some of criteria you can base on a good ICO Bounty selection to participate include :
Get information on creators and project supervisors
Do not take part in the bounty that is too much of your time
Learn about the prospects of the project
Keep track of the funds collected
Pay attention to how the project's bonuses are paid.

In the bounty, I participate recently. But I really do not like when managers do not do their job. It happens that they do not count stakes, when they write in pm they ignore

Bounty companies, they gradually begin to turn into a garbage dump. Now such a large number of unnecessary coins that are similar to each other. Very rarely, there is a good coin that really has a great future. But as a rule, the money is collected on presale or private sale, so the services of hunters they do not need.

I somewhat agree here, companies that manage bounties are so many but only 1 or 2 really look at the quality of the whole project, most focus only on the  token economics,,, if at all.

Every week I see 2 or 3 coins that look similar, even sound similar. This ERC20 business is booming but now everybody sees the effect on the Ether price and market. This was going to happen sooner or later.

As a rule, hunters are still needed to make the project widely known. But I would say, hunters must also be users to give the coin a proper community using the coin and technology. See if you give people Bitcoin bounties, they still can use it. But give them tokens, they just dump it.

This year's bounty and airdrops are completely out of the quality and madness of last year. So my suggestion is that you won't go to too many bounty missions this year because you probably won't get any rewards. Now, you can first observe the dynamics of the following markets, and when the scammers leave, the bounty and airdrops will once again become valuable.

Choosing a bounty task is a very tedious process. You need to be patient and serious. First, develop the habit of reading a white paper. Second, you should record the name of the bounty manager for each mission!

Being a bounty hunter is both profitable and sometimes you will still lose, not in money but its more on your precious time. I started my journey here last year and I can say being bount hunter helps me a lot and because of this job I was able to settle all my debts. I suggest to work hard in this market because its worth it. Just look for a good bounties and you will be fine.

Why some bounty hunters sell there token at dump exchange rather than hold and gain more profit from there token.

I am also a new bounty hunter. I was just focused on airdrops but right now trying my best to join some campaign. I think the secret here is to have a lot of patience and in finding a good project.

Questions from bounty Hunter now is:
- when is the bounty coming to an end
- Time to distribute token
- when is the token listed and so on

it's easier if you know the manager of the bounty alone compared to having to open and read the white paper, but unfortunately it is now starting to scam many

There are many ways to choose a bounty mission. I judge by observing the followers of the project. I will choose some bounty missions with a large number of fans!

Lot of bounties are scam. You must have to reseach.

Hello. Here you need to understand that this is the Internet. Here no one gives you reliable guarantees on payments. Such guarantees are sometimes not provided even in real enterprises, where people go to work every day.

but sometimes I have read the white paper and the team in it as well as the bounty manager who is usually always successful, but at this time sometimes it cannot be guaranteed because the experience is still there which is finally a scam. actually, luck can not be missed.

Lot of bounties are scam. Revenues from the bounty are falling, and the amount of time to look for prospective ISO is growing.

That's exactly what I am curious about bounty hunters. I do bounty for 4 months, and now I have receive 3 tokens( DarcMatter, Swace, InterValue). I really want to verify that which is good ICO and which is not. I will make a comment in this topic in the future. This is really useful topic.

And they are only active in bounty group, right? A lot of participant only ask about bounty related, I think this is not help their project. If they want success with their project, so do the best for the project.

Depends on bounty participants, because sometimes they just join without doing research about the project. So for all bounty hunter, I have a suggesstion for you, before joined with the project, imagine you as an investors, learning more, read the whitepaper and roadmap and don't forget to make a research about the project, you should to learning in depth. If you do the best, you will got the best too.

Yes, sharing your experienced will help other people, goodluck mate.

I have been involved in bounty campaigns for almost a year now. For me it was a great opportunity to enter crypto without attachments. At the end of last year and at the beginning of this bounty campaigns was very much, I had somewhere around 10, maybe more. But now there are fewer. I'm doing just a few because I'm looking for the most successful ones, and I'm not fed up to this day, since it brings me benefits.

I have been taking part in the bounty since the spring of this year, but seriously started this summer, waiting for the end of the year to sum up. Good luck in your search.

I'm bored with this question, actually this doesn't need to be asked, because information is usually written on a thread. Bounty Hunter is always impatient.
this might be because some projects slow down the distribution, and some projects end up scam.
they are like competing to get rid of their tokens. not interesting, and I almost gave up.

80% of the projects i promoted was scams, some may not end well, some paid but $1or $2 for eight weeks working project. But few were very honest to the call, without any excuse,they paid directly to my eth account. One of the honest company that were so faithful is sether

I think all bounties are very good only sometimes the bounty does not give us gifts or give gifts but not as much as what is expected and we better do a bounty according to our strongest feelings and read first the intent and rules of the bounty so that we can get the most and we see how many prizes will be allocated from the manager bounty.

It always take a risks and one should understand how to point out good ICO project.
Take initiative to research on the project legitimacy. Be sure to check dev team members, whitepaper and social community were active always.

It is necessary to learn to distinguish a scam from ICO that can really enter the market without large losses.

If you want to earn money here by joining bounty you need to choose the good bounty and do a research about them if they are legit for you to avoid scam later and waste your time and effort by promoting and advertising them

you better look for the project itself although bounty manager is also an option for you to look when choosing a good bounty because there are bounty manager that wont be accept any campaign if they found it out that it is not good to handle or there is a signs of scam in the project. There are campaigns that really ends to scam and you should be ready for that if you want to focus on being a bounty hunter.

I have to agree with you on this, most of the times, you see bounty hunters asking questions that can be found in the thread if they spend just a few minutes to read everything through. If I were managers, I would just delete all these type of participants since they cannot even spend a moment to read the details of projects they want to support.

But yes it can be hard also to keep up with constant project changes,,, so my recommendation is only to stick to one or two projects, keep updated and give all your support to it properly.

To have a token in the future without spending big money to invest is joining a campaign, campaign future is not assured to any participant since it will be based on your effort with the team member to reach the soft cap!
Don't expect too much if the bounty hunter is not doing there part effortless.

I am a person who likes to review ico and the ongoing project from the many projects that I researched. There are also many who have projects with very cool ideas but at the end of the road they stop and cheat, after I look for it here and I am surprised to see this project, " wow this is amazing too "
You can check here https://ico.farasha.care/

You need to learn how to choose promising projects among the scam and participate in them, now it is very important, especially in the bear market.

Please can anyone tell me why some bounty hunters sell there hard earning token cheap on a dump market? I keep wondering why such happen at exchange to some bounty hunters

Why? It's very simple! They want to get something for their work. And since these tokens were given to them as a reward, then it seems advisable to get at least some material benefit from them.

I'm involved in a lot of work to hunt for bonuses. I found success after finishing the bounty accounted for about 30% of what I did. The tokens have risen very high after being traded on the exchange. But I still want people to be patient to participate in the bounty, I have been patiently waiting for nearly 6 months to receive the first money thanks to the bounty. Good luck.

There are almost no exceptions to the campaigns of some reputable bounty managers. I had a start with the EOZ (Tokensuite) campaign, with no payments. They manage a lot of campaigns but they are not very thorough and clear. I'm working with the bounty manager - sinatrra12 and I also hope to get the reward.

ough I may not be an authority in bounties, but part of the challenges experienced atimes is in reporting of social tasks. If the bounty has a means of automatically tracking the activities of participants and verify and record

when I started taking part in a bounty program, I had never before expected how much I would get paid ... better just do it, but before joining the bounty I did a little research to convince myself that the project was not scam ...

 I think you should try this. From my experience, I can say that this can really make money. I was lucky with some projects,

Well done, besides needing a research on a project that holds a bounty campaign also bounty hunter must wait a little longer to get the reward sent by the developer. I saw a number of bounties when sending a reward that took at least one month, I thought it was a long time. However, this will not be in vain when the token is successfully listed in several exchanges and has a high price compared to when the ICO takes place, but if the reverse, the process of sending reward payments takes a long time and the token has been listed in several exchanges but the price is decreases, it will only make a pain.

indeed most of us are always waiting for an ico payment that we follow and of course we must be extra patient in facing a payment from ico but all that will pay off if all the gifts have been paid to us and when it has a high market price so we not in vain after our struggle to wait for so long has paid off, the pain is indeed waiting for the payment of ico it cannot be ascertained to miss the promised date

I am finished with a lot of bounty, but presently, there is no good pyment due to the low price of all coins, but there is no worry, I think it will increase prices very quickly.

Your patience is legendary, I must confess. And to think that you believe you will get paid after 6months is exceptionally unbelievable. Dude, just move on. You have been scammed. I once had such a nasty experience.

Like they say, experience is the best teacher. Now I avoid bounties paying in coins not yet listed like a plague. Most of them are scams and it doesn't cost they much to shill out their shitcoins and run away with investors money. I just wish everyone here will avoid these bounties not paying in already listed coins.

I found a lot of bounty hunters who complained when they got paid after the project was finished. And even more some of them didn't give up every job he had done before, because bounty process its take a time but they only got a little payment.

Indeed, the decline in the cryptocurrency market price has a negative effect on the newly released ICO prices, down very drastically. However, the only way is to hold the token and have to wait for the market to recover that the token does have a value and functions properly so that it can pay for the work that has been bounty hunter done.

You can be sure that at least the tokens will already be paid. But again, the likelihood that this project Scam, of course, great!

According to me selecting a good bounty campaign is the most difficult thing as there are so many bounty campaigns today. To choose a good campaign look for the developmental team and their aim of developing the coin and whether it is possible or not. So if you find a good one participate in all the campaigns in that bounty so that you can earn a lot of stakes

     On this forum, most are enrolled to participate in bounty campaigns, so anyone can answer this thread, because they are all bounty hunters. Today the market is full of SCAM projects or projects with unserious managers. Participating in bounty campaigns will not bring you some guaranteed money, because many projects just appeared to fool people. It is the risk that any participant in the reward campaigns assumes. I also participated in the campaigns of many projects (signatures, twittter, facebook) but I did not receive any rewards. We go further and try to be more careful when choosing projects with better research.

Since I started here in the forum of bitcointalk, my experienced was really good. At least in a short period of time being here in this industry as one of the bounty hunters in most ico which I joined before, few of them gave me a good profit though I participated in many ico Hoqu is one of the best campaign I joined were it gave me a good bounty rewards that it leads me to bought a small traditional business here and so far its still running in good progress. However, in some ico I think its unavoidable that some of them are really turns into scam but it doesn't mean it will frustrate or disappoint me to stop doing in this business of crypto world.

I recommend only to participate in bounty but not in airdrop.I appreciate that you can participate in social networks in order to start a lot of friends. the more friends that are the bigger the reward

last year was profitable for bounty hunters, but now not anymore because of the bleeding market, still we can earn cryptos even they give us a low value we just trying to hold soon they will increase the prices, try to join bounty campaign so that you can earn.   

I think the success of the bounty activity depends entirely on the team's actions, whether they have completed the expected work on time, and whether they provide real service to investors!

Being a bounty hunter is a fun thing for me because there are so many benefits that we get from one of the ico projects, but if the project is successful and produces a quality product and has a high selling value, then we will also benefit but at the end This is not going well because often meeting several ICOs who turned out to be a hoax, what happened is that we only waste our energy and mind, so anyone who wants to be a bounty hunter should not always think that is too sweet because this work is full with risks so be prepared also mentally to deal with the bitter possibilities that will be faced later.

rest assured of what you are doing ,, belief in the future a determination, I think almost all bounty hunters have met with a scam project, I myself have experienced it, but not one bit I am discouraged ,, today I am not lucky, , tomorrow will be better, my advice is to learn what you are doing

Oh well I have been doing bounty since 2017 and I have encountered so many difficulties and success.
I will start with the success. The best bounty manager that paid me my first pay of $1000 was goblinTeam, the team of managers are great, and I have worked with a SandraEvans (good).
My maD experience is running a bounty that's the allocation is too good to be true and bounty managers are unknown and lastly the project need to useful.

to get information about bounty hunter you can ask him better if you can follow or become a haunted baounty, you will get a lot of information if you try to become a bounty hunter, as a bounty haunt there are a lot of joys and sorrows that you can feel yourself

I think the main key to being a bounty hunter is patience and perseverance, every bounty hunter must have accidentally got a bounty campaign that turned out to be a scam, or when they were working but didn't get paid because finally the competition turned out to not reach Sofcap

To be a bounty hunter you have to participate in bounty campaign like signatures or social media, many in this forum bounty you can follow. if the bounty ends with fraud then it is a exam and not always the project that will be followed ends with a scam. depending on choice and confidence in participating as a gift hunter.

Yes, people should think before joining in any of the Airdrops because we are not going to get any benefits from the Airdrops. So it is always good to find the best bounty in order to get when the company reaches the hard cap. In the present situation choosing best bounty is also very tough because there are many scams out there without any payments.

airdrops and bounties are the same because both are under the influence of ico . both activities are also risky since you dont guarantee that you can be paid but if ever you get paid you cant still assure that the coins that you get will have a market value . 

to be honest i think airdrops are more better when compared to a bounty because you arent forced to do a tiring work here not unlike to a bounty that you require to post ( post reports and post qouta per week )  .

you can also earn good on an airdrop ,i know because im an airdrop enthusiast but overall its still up to you on what will you choose because thats your life not mine .

Lots to talk about. Have come across a scam in December 2017. Then became much pro active. Always do my own research on the icos before joining. Have tokens but holding back as current market will not earn more profits. Started trading with the tokens received. Traded with small capital then as the profits increased, the capital size as well increased. I love to be in bounties. 2017 yielded more money from tokens but 2018 is not as like last year. We had less ICOs getting in and the tokens value were very less when they get listed on exchanges.

Social media currently does not provide big profits, unless you are able to increase your working hours to become busier.
at least you have to participate 10 ico and you make a report every day.

The regulation of projects is needed then there will be normal projects and big investors, and now there are very few projects that want to enter such a market.

Self research is one of the important factors and you should always do that before joining one , to be confident that the bounty campaign you are about to join is not scam, and your time wont go to waste

Bounty hunting this year really not a good experience this year 2018, it was a bad ans worst case to all bounty hunters here. Only few bounty project I know that gave a payment distribution who became good, then at the same the value was increased also. Like metamorp known as Metm and allme.

I agree with you on that 2018 was not good at all, a lot of projects never reached the ICO price and moreover they will never be close to it.
But please remember PundiX it is also the project of 2018 and it was pumped more than x10 and now it gained stability and has a nice future.
And also Credits project - that during prime had x3 and is in top 200 cmc.
But these projects are drops in the ocean, really.

In the bear market, every financial market looks bad. So we can not be surprised that investors were afraid to risk investing in this difficult period. However, it seems that the situation on the market is calming and fresh money will begin to flow again.

It's a big job to do research over the market and identify all the scam projects and do the statistic, you need a team and all community to be interested in this research and help you with information.
First of all, need to research through all of the projects, how many they raised through ICO and how long it lasts, what were the earnings of bounty hunters was and when it was delivered.

You can join to biunty campaign at your own risk. Better to ready to what ever happen to you because maybe if you joining bounty it will be worth it or not worth it because bounties is not sure maybe they have scam or legit. But for sure most of them are experiencing failed .

I’ve been connecting less and less projects lately ... I’m waiting for the rate to rise on ethrium, because at the moment the market is empty

Now a day's its not true that you can earn like the past earner of 2017. Till 2017 there was not that much of scam project that now coming in market.. Also there have a matter of participate, in 2016-2017 there haven't enough participate like today's bounty. So they got enough from bounty because most of bounty distributed as stake system... But now even in a scam hit 2k in a week, so its hard to earn from bounty now.. And most importantly you have to find out the real and good promising project otherwise all of your work will be ruin. If you to earn from it you have to be keep searching good project, hve know knowledge about how to find out real project etc.

i always look at the community and its members if they are active enough that would be great

I think it takes a long time if you wait for the ethereum platform with high prices like last year.
it's better to do it now to find lots of campaigns, so that the projects we follow are finished, hopefully along with the increase in ethereum prices

There are many projects there and there are too many crooks. The workers will go to waste. Good Research patiently

The best way is to choose bounties those already have listed their tokens on any exchange (at least on any dex) and those are paying rewards on a regular basis, for instance once per week.
There are not so many bounties those offer such conditions, but they are appearing time to time. Look for them first of all.

My experience with bounties so far has been a mixed one: the good and the bad; the beautiful and the ugly. The good is when you get rewarded on time for the tasks done and not when the project eventually turned into a scam. The bad is when there is a long delay before been rewarded (ICO price dumped already) or not rewarded at all (probably due to scam project, project not reaching softcap). So, if you are going into bounty now that things are complicated, then expect the good and the ugliest.

Is it about how profitable to become a bounty hunter?

Campaign managers are those who handle and manages bounty campaign most of them have social media platform that's they work with you can be able to join there projects by registering. While bounties are project organised during ico where tokens are distributed afterwards

Taking into bounty will only give you a 50% chances that you will get your reward as even those promising project will decide to freeze due to management decision about the market situation. If you have a higher rank account you will just join on those signature campaign that has already reach their soft cap as this has higher chance that the project will proceed to get listed in exchanges.
