Alternative cryptocurrency is facing huge decline from April. There are at least 50 tokens (that I know) are not listed on any exchange from past one year or not distributed from bounty owners. Interesting fact is that all of these bounties have good/best ranking on bounty ranking websites. Do you have or identified any new method to evaluate a bounty project ??

This is a simple question to answer, it doesn't matter when a project get listed on exchange provided the developers are still developing the platform, what do count is can you invest into this project, if your answer is NO, so there is no need to carry the bounty in the first place because you are just promoting what you can't invest into yourself. People need to try as much as possible stop promoting all this good for nothing projects

I am not sure how you guys are trusting those ranking websites because they all are managed one and may not give the ratings upto the mark. Note that most of the ICO's/bounties will list their tokens according to the roadmap only if they are worth something or legit one. If you are seeing that some bounties are shifting their dates continuously for their listing then there two possibilities that can happen : 1) Either they are having genuine problems with the product launch and/or 2) They are fake. So if it is 2nd one then just leave it and if it is 1st one then you can continue waiting for it to get listed.

I think the last thing to do is to pay attention to the rating of the project, because it makes no sense to look at them. And if you want to invest. Better wait and see how the project team works and their fees and then make a decision.

I think now there is hard to knowing is bounty legit or not but as far as i know i always choose bounty with have trusted bounty manager, their team is real or fake, their project like read white paper , is their social media active and have many follower, or maybe we can join bounty when they are reach soft cap and maybe if their signature campaign have many member with high rank joined. But there still not enough i think you should do your research

Yeah choose a good/trusted bounty manager and then dyor dyor dyor. No way around it.

I am also looking for the best solution of this problem, the difficulty that occurs in the project is how they are to enter the exchange, I keep looking at this forum

ICO Drops is the best place to start in my opinion. They do a good job screening scams and they have a link on bottom of the page to projects with bounties. :)

In my opinion, I find a reliable and legit project are by checking their team member, website, ranking, white paper, and other sources. Choose a good campaign manager also. In participating a project I gained from my previous manager since I know it is legit to handle a good project and no got to be scammed.

Out of 50 projects which haven't distributed tokens yet to complete their ICOs or did not achieved their softcap and failed or some of the project may have been turned out to be scam. If you want to find best projects than do little research don't blindly trust any of the bounty ranking websites as they  take listing charges. You can find most reliable projects on ICOdrop or it also depends on the bounty managers which have good track records such as g0blin, amazix, wapinter, Lauda, yahoo. Also you can look on fundraising platform projects too such as leekICO, tokenomy, Lbank, Liquid, from there too you can get hints about project which are launching bounty campaign.

well. i am trying to find the ones that has good potential but not known. because popular bounty campaigns have so many participants. so shares are very low. you should find surprise ones.

ICO rating sites can't be trusted.
You have to make your opinion by yourself.
Read the wp, check the team, the activity on social networks, the BM...

Depending on ICO rating sites is like allowing a blind man to lead you, definitely you're going to ditch into pitch, what I'm trying to say is that most of the ICO rating websites are probably paid for what they do and they might not put professionalism first in their review... Best thing is do deep research and concise analysis before promoting any ICO that's the only way you can find reliable bounty that will reward your hard work

Choose companies that are legally registered. Check it out on the government website.

Now it is very difficult to choose a project that can make a profit.

I always have one method of evaluation-this is my personal analysis of the project. I have never really trusted such rating sites, because no one can be insured from a fraudulent project.

It's likely that those bounties paid for those reviews to have that good ranking on those bounty websites.

That's how their business goes, you pay for good review and the website will do it for you to attract more bounty hunters that will help you with the promotion.

I make use of good and reputable bounties manager on this forum just follow this topic link https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4528038.0. And you are good to go

You do not forget that now many projects just do not want to release their coin on the stock exchange in this situation on the market. The coin is traded on the exchange or not-this is not an indicator of the prospects of the project. First of all, pay attention to the development of the project, the team's plans and the results they have achieved.

I never knew about a site that could identify a bounty, I only attended a bounty manager who had a lot of experience and the average project he had success at the time of sale

*Lol It looks like you just take the information from the icorating site that was getting paid by them all. You might not believe with the result of ratings. They were paying the icosite owners to put the high rating to the ico.
1 you can try to join in this group icodrop because it's the only one reliable ico rating site and it's active community.
2 you should take a look on how active the telegram group is
3 just try to make sure you are watching the whitepaper, try to identified the identity through use google to prevent if that was a fake identity.

I think i've seen this kind of post asking about how to chose a good bounty or project. Perhaps you need to check on it before asking this in a new thread i believe that would be wise in not making everyone else repeating the same answer again and again.

You are right, I agree on that part. We must know first the team so that we can determine if we can trust or not. We need to for sure everything because we are talking an investment here not just a game. It is very risky but we need to look for a realistic mad manageable project.

if I identify a new bounty project, I use the ICO website review method. if there are more than 3 ICO websites that review the possibility of the project being serious, but related to payment and distribution it is the business of the CEO, team and boutny manager, we will not know and that is their business

Now all projects are postponing listing on the stock exchange motivating it with the fact that the market situation is very bad and this may negatively affect the product!

I think that finding a good project is probably as difficult as finding a normal project for investing, because today the market is very hard on such projects and in most cases people just lose their time.

I am also looking for a better solution for how to recognize a reliable and legit bounty project so far I know we need to search the project's ranking and its government approved but this is not quite enough for finding a legit project. Some say go to join in the normal project rather than joining the well-known project.

In other words, even the many traditional ways of gauging a project may not anymore be working under the current market circumstances. In fact, everything can be hit or miss. In my own personal experience, majority of the projects which I promoted never got any value at all...waste of time that is many use the strategy of joining as many projects as possible praying that one or two will make to the exchanges and be sold with some value. Things this year are not anymore the same as last year and 2019 can proved to be the defining moment for this industry.

It doesn't matter anymore because no matter how good the project looks doesn't mean it won't turn into scam, many of this projects promises a huge return which turns to red flag later on ,some never made it to exchanges ,I'm done investing in ICOs ,there was a project that has no ICO and its on 3 different exchanges already ,isn't that a good one? Its not always about ICOs, 90% are just Trash's ,I'd continue my bounty hunt but not invest on them

Do not rely on  those ICO rating, I've seen ICO with a good project but failed to generate funds, they did not even meet their softcap, instead check the scam sections if they are listed there and if they do not, check the people behind these projects and feedback from the community follow the dev's update and their channel, if they failed to give updates, then it's not safe to invest here.

Tell me why the real sector ICO are not welcomed by the community? After all, such projects usually have a product, sales, and not just an idea.

Lately it's really hard to find bounty campaigns worth my attention. Even if the project looks promising and even if the softcap is raised, it doesn't guarantee the success of the project in the future , and token prices fall by 80-90%, barely hitting the exchange. It's sad and sometimes a pity to spend time on participation, it's easier to buy tokens for ICO, if the project is really interesting and you see good prospects. So i do.

Yeah in think theres a legal ways on how to know if that campaign/project is a true legit,.researching is the best way also to get some ideas to catch for the best ICO'S.So if some of our mates recognize some fraudelent ICOS better share here in forum so that other can be aware also.

Bounty hunters are facing a hard time today, some ICO's are not properly distributing stakes of bounty hunters, they locked it and delayed payment, they changed rules so often that you will give up doing a campaign for projects, these are some of the reasons I stopped doing ICO bounty campaign.

Most of the projectd now are legit but cant totally gives us profits thats why many bounty Hunters are looking for the project that pays in fiat or in eth or btc to assure there works and effors are payed. And this times of crypto its difficult to choose the bounty you promote.

Search for bounty based on who manages it. It is the best and fastest way for you to choose a bounty and work with it. Find a good and good manager in this regard and you won't need to check too much about that project

to be honest. those ico rating sites are killing the crypto Market. 90% of them collect fees for the listing without any proper investigation. I read an article where some guys intentionally set up a popular and highly rated crypto websites with a scam project requesting they need the project to be rated 8+ on their platform.

My opinion for hunting bounties. Avoid campaigning for projects that promises to pay millions. they are 80% scam. go tru the whitepaper. this is a major concern. and then ask questions in the social group to find out what the developers know about the project.

There's no method other than predicting with evaluating the project, in fact, you need to be lucky in order to get a good bounty. Check the project, if it is an useful one, you can go for it.
What is the bounty ranking website?

You can find good bounty projects if you are willing to learn first,do some digging about the project team and don't make choices bases on ICO rating websites

Even I am also looking for any method to find good bounty campaigns but as far as I am concerned , I just go through website , white paper , roadmap , project scope and project team. One can have some idea about the product and the project.

I usually try to participate in bounty campaigns organized by bounty managers which i trust. Because I think these managers are the first to investigate this project much better than I do. I'm also doing my own research too before joining that bounty campaign. In particular, I checking the team members and whitepaper of the project. I think the ranking websites are not so helpfull for bounty campaigns.

absolutely true, we need to deeply explore the project before joining their bounty. And the most important thing is to find out all partners and investors of the project. This is an important factor to decide whether the project can succeed or fail

This is a complicated process to come to the conclusion that a bounty project would be nice. I think simply, a good bonus will partially succeed in promoting with a good and friendly campaign manager. The obvious to OP, check website, WP, team or telegram, the IEO plan is really necessary but it doesn't mean a successful bounty. It is important not to take the innocence and emotions to go into bounty projects but waste time.

I rarely see bounty campaigns from the ranking on the website. Usually, I will be more interested in bounties where the Bounty Manager is someone who is professional and has a good track record. Moreover, analysis of the token allocation, number of participants, and various info updates from the bounty project on the telegram channel.

simple way. make sure the bounty allocation is fixed, and make sure that the project bounty has the potential, for example, to work with other projects or big companies, have worked with well-known exchanges and also have a strong community (and most investors are not airdrop hunters or bounty hunters), or if want to be easy You are looking for a bounty that already have a exchange, but the allocation / reward offered is interesting because it guarantees in my opinion.

problems not distributed gifts and not on the market exchange listing, in my view there are some things that become benchmarks:
1. BTC and Eth price movements that do not experience stability, let alone tokens that use ETH as a price benchmark.
2. failure to study the market and they are afraid to suffer losses when the token is posted
3. the roadmap has not been completed, especially in terms of security tokens.
so, as a bounty hunter, we must really know about the work management of the projects we follow.

It seems like researching to find a good project to follow the bounty is nonsense that never works because for me in the end everything depends on our luck. but I have only been relying on a good and selective bounty manager in handling a project

you are right, even though we have done research on projects based on our abilities all depend on our luck too. because at the end of the campaign no one knows what will happen to the project. it could be a scam, it could also cut rewards, it could also be a bad price. and all of them are luck. therefore I choose to enjoy every campaign that I follow, regardless of the results.

Well, finding a reliable bounty could be difficult but there are certainly some of them out there. This solely becomes the responsibility of the hunter to do an in depth assessment of the project involved, their use case, team involved and actually their partnerships. The more useful the project is, the higher the chances that, it will do well. Sometimes, these projects go on to achieve much more than those without any visible team, use case or strong partnerships.

Try to get in trusted translators list of bounty managers or just make an account on bounty platform.

But we also need to remember that we all have to check on the project, like I always check the team and serious meetings and partnerships, that's what I think can still be trusted.

finding a good bounty nowadays is like finding a gold mine, it is very rare. Most bounties just look good from the outside but you won't know until you have finished promoting it, then getting value for your work would be a big issue. So if you find a good bounty, do your best to suck it dry.

Now I can't find a good one bounty.
But when number of bounties was bigger, firstly I've tried to find good project in general, I analyzed it like investor and only then I checked out if they have bounty or not

Do you really want to make it? It is like a combination of deep analysis and luck, because even if you're good in research, then your thoughts could easily be broken with sharp reality.
Bounty can be distributed after token dropped to 0 and multiple other reasons

Do your own research  and do not rely on promotion website or project , it is better to waste some time in searching for some good project rather than promoting scam or useless project. You can manually ask from moderator or team member about their details or check their team background so that your promotion effort will not go in vain.

coming a good bounty nowadays can be challenging as most bounties only seem good from the outside. you just have to keep on with the research and hopefully you come across one. its really frustrating when you promote a projects and they fail to reward you for your time.   

There are a lot of new reliable projects out there. Just like Pointpay. They have a great bounty...PointPay is conducting 1 ETH giveaway.

A little tips from me, as long as I am looking for a bounty campaign, what I do is look at a successful bounty project before. I took a number of these projects, just take 10 projects, then I analyze and take similarities from some of these projects. Well after that you are only looking for projects that have similarities from the 10 projects, actually it does not have to be exactly the same but it is close enough, how the team, how it works, how they promote, etc.

The choice of reliable and paying bounty campaign consists of too many subjective factors. The team can be highly trustful and the project idea booming, but if the guys fail on tokensale, the bounty is failed as well. Probably this is a good example of a case when quantity better than quality.

But our luck will play a lot in this case, remember about some time there was a bounty that doesn't look promising and then after that already listed on exchange site and the price of token worth a lot of money. While choosing bounty and it's the difficult part for us. There was a lot of uncertainties in the distribution.

if you are picking your bounty based on ranking you get from listing website, you are not going to make good decisions. It is better to do your own research and find out which of them to join. There are different projects that offer bounty and you may not actually know the best out of them until the campaign end. I once tell some hunters on telegram that you will never know the true colour of project dev until the project ends. Generally, you must have it at the back of your mind that most project dev do not like bounty hunters even though they offer bounty campaign so do not be deceived into joining campaign because dev sugarcoated the campaign.

Well, if the project is fake, then the coins of this project will never be trade on a good exchange. So it turns out that bounty hunters worked for a fraudulent project for free. Accordingly, before participating in any project, you first need to analyze it well.

Choosing a bounty company, I pay attention to the manager who leads it. I try to select those with whom I worked and whom I trust, about whom I heard positive feedback on the forum. And of course I carefully study the information about the project itself, but all ratings are not for me.

it is difficult to do that before but now time change and we can have it.

All you need to do is find a bounty which is paying BTC and the budget is escrowed (old ways)
find a campaign which are under IEO on a great exchange (PLUS FACTOR)

It's really difficult to find a reliable one nowadays, unlike before, even if it is a scammy it will be listed on the exchanges on the next day. I followed some bounty managers who have a good credibility and extensive research to avoid promoting a project that is a fraud from the very beginning.

Finding reliable and legit bounties don't come easily, it takes time and effort to come by them. Most importantly, doing a vivid research is what matters and its the only core activity in determining a good and legit bounty.

Exactly. Known reliable bounty managers is a start to get good bounty programs that really pay. If you are following one or two managers, that is more than enough. If you are a risk taker, you can try those unknown developers that are doing their own bounty programs. But for me, if you choose the right manager, then, you are at peace that you are in good hands no matter what.
