Tune in to my recommendation companions,you shouldn't promote bounties only for benefits of it,else you will wind up picking phony or trick projects since your attitude is toward profits,this is similar missteps some bounty hunters are taking,begin picking generally excellent projects,their prizes probably won't be attractive however trust me they constantly justified despite all the trouble at last.

First of all, how can you know a project is good? What metrics are you going to use? What's the error ratio?

I think most of the time a bounty hunter is having a difficult time picking projects that are 'good', which means they pay really well. What matter most, in the end, is does a project pay you a decent amount or not. Even several bounties from the good project aren't that attractive, with a user end up with $50 or so for months. The time you use to filter bad projects from good projects might not worth it in the end if you got paid with that amount.

Which is why it's better to start finding bounties/campaign that pays you weekly with BTC or ETH, or any valuable coins that are already traded in the market.

What's been stated in the Op is correct. When we participate in a bounty reward we know do analysis and this won't give the clear outline about the project and its success. This way we cannot segregate and participate, some projects we know from the Whitepaper itself how worth it is. So, even the most expected projects go unsuccessful.

this has being the major challenge faced by bounty hunters, because they get to see large figures on the screen as compensation, they choose to have what figures they see and forget to check out the project in its reality and therefore end up supporting projects that are indeed very awkward and even when they get paid, the project doesn't see the light of the day and the complain keeps coming. My advice; research o the project and make sure it is a useful and achievable one considering various factors before getting involved.

I understand your point, buddy. Isn't satisfying if we promote only those projects that we think has a great objectives and potentials? But how can we identify if that project alone is worth to promote?

Also, you can't blame bounty hunters here which the main goal is only to get some rewards and in the first place it is the main goal of everyone here - to earn.

Hope your suggestion be heard because that does makes sense  all along.

I think that the title should tell: if you do bounties for money, at least promote only the bounties good enough to ensure you get paid (with something that actually has value).
This doesn't rule out the tokens, just the project has to be good enough ensure (in a reasonable time) those tokens can be exchanged if needed.

It is good idea to participate in bounty campaigns that has much potentiality to grow over time. Generally bounty hunters are on the lookout for a project  offering high amount of tokens. They do not look at whether the project is legit or not. So I agree with you and want bounty hunters to look at quality of a project.

^ Good question, how could we determine if the project is good whether or not. Even there is a concept of the project how it works but if they will fail all your efforts are nothing. Choosing and knowing which better projects is very difficult as a bounty hunter to determine. So, I guess the best is promote only those project that trusted promoters. Op was right, promote projects not by reward nor by its potential.

You are concern with the bounty hunters but knowing how good the project is, it's getting harder to determine those kind of projects.
And those bounty hunters that are trying their luck with those bounties that are displaying how big the distribution is for their bounty, it's hard to stop them.

Great idea mate. I've used to support some projects even when the did cut the shares or the perspectives of benefits were dim. As it was with Blue Frontiers, where I liked the idea the most.
And by the way projects with high-profitable promised rewards are often a trick as a lot of decent projects don't even conduct advertising campaigns.

Tell which of these project now has the characteristics of truly good project as we have seen lots of them with team member that we never can say negative about but where are they today? All gone so doing it for reward and great project is why many do bounty .

Your thinking might be on how team claim bounty hunter dump when received immediately but I disagree with it but many still dump to cash out too and some never and that is where great project comes in , where now is the best time to join great bounty and hold for future reference as the bear now is a great opportunity for those who hold and believe in the project .

No bounty hunters will join or promote a bounty campaign, that they think will not turn out to be a good project in the long term, bounty hunters are creating a thread here asking what is a good bounty to join, and they are not asking about the rewards.

It's ok to look for rewards but it's the job of every bounty hunters here to check first the long term status of the project and its profitability in the market, I have never encounter bounty hunter that would prefer rewards than how good the project will turn out.

One thing bounty hunters should keep in mind, these bounty rewards are just potential in the market, they are not the true value of the coin, the market is the one that will create the price depends on the demand of the coin. It could go higher and it could go lower,
I have one experience on one campaign, I've got $1000 worth of their token on their ICO price, unfortunately, I've only sold it for only $50.

The biggest mistake that 90 percent of hunters are doing is that they are searching for bounties with highest rewards like over 3m dollar. No project will share 3 million dollar with hunters guys, so search for campaigns that have already been traded or at least secured their soft cap.

I feel social media Bounties are a waste of time. Through my experience, the most profitable bounties are the signature bounty, translation bounty, and content bounty. I have always joined projects where the product is ready and is being used or those where the token/coin are already being traded on the exchange. I generally avoid new projects that do not have seed money to build their own products or do not have any actual product to offer. I prefer those project that are related to the benefit of Blockchain technology.

If you follow the above guide then you will be earning in four figures like I have been earning for the past one and a half years. Cheers!!
 

I agree with you, when registering a bounty especially for campaign signatures I was never in a hurry if in my opinion the project was not interesting.  I see new projects from real products, have clear benefits, have innovations. If one of the three exists, then I follow their bounties.

I think the biggest problem about bounties is we have too many bounty hunters already and remember that the more many bounty hunters are joining a bounty project they lesser your rewards.

90% of bounty hunters are here for quick rewards and only very few wants to hold tokens earned from bounties thats why we have many dumpers among bounty hunters.

many good bounty projects that are already listed on exchanges have too low rewards for bounty hunters and the best bounty rewards are from new projects.

Im here to promote bounty projects for the rewards and nothing more and if im lucky i can end up promoting projects that keeps their promises,the reason why many bounty projects are bad is because they arent very serious with making the project a success,but i promote bounty projects that have something promising to offer e.g working product atleast

I'm not thinking of the rewards it's very deceiving, you will end up disappointed if you rely on rewards some coins fall 90% of the price when it hit the market, go for project long term projection, get fewer rewards that have a possibility to increase in the future, you will not regret it.

basically everyone wants to get the same profit as the bounty hunter, but the way everyone can be different the same as the bounty hunter in choosing a project for example is me, I don't have specific criteria in choosing a bounty but I am not careless in doing it because the project scam is not only harming others but also for me so that as much as possible I will try to choose the best and I believe that now I have found it

It is undeniable that every bounty hunter must expect a reward for the project they are promoting, because they do not want what they are doing is just a waste of time and a waste of time. So, in my opinion a good project will certainly be very beneficial for bounty hunters because they will get rewards in the form of tokens at a good price, so many bounty hunters will analyze each project to get potential projects.

good advice, but I also analyze a good project in terms of how it develops from week to week. besides that I chose the bounty seen from the participants who followed. choose a bounty that has many participants.

However, the allocation of rewards is an important enough consideration to choose a bounty campaign, so that your hard work pays well. It is quite difficult to determine whether or not a good parameter of a bounty project, at this time. Moreover, many con artists are very shrewd. The safest way is to look for projects that have use case, working products, and tokens that are already listed and tradable on the exchange.

Most of the good bounty campaigns that are now available do not have large pools and that is why some people who do not do research before choose, do not find them attractive, but are attracted by airbag bounties with high pools. Most of them end up as scam projects. Even if they end up listing on exchange, they do not sell at good prices.

The truth is good projects will be harder to find because altcoins are in the decline. 2 years ago everyone wanted their own coin bot now people are looking at new altcoins with suspicion. Many people including Tone Vays said it that years ago when you created an altcoin people were talking about it and some known people like Max Keiser launched their own projects. Now those known people wouldn't do it because they know competing on this market is hard and most altcoins get abandoned.

Actually, we really hope to promote legit projects with great continuity and good rewards. Promoting good projects without good rewards will not make us satisfied. And also vice versa. That is why if we can get both, why not? That is why we must be more selective in selecting certain bounty to promote the project. Choose the high reward (moreover in BTC or ETH) and the project is legit enough.

Promoting projects for rewards alone is one of the roots of all the evils you are seeing in the cryptocurrency industry today. Charity begins at home they say, bounty hunters are always the first point of contact of these projects aside their managers, and it is what we promoted that the majority of the investor we have today saw, and as we know that some of them has been scammed, some projects has even made people loose relationship.

I remember that a friend of mine told me he lost his close friend who saw an advert on his page and since the way he promoted it was self-explanatory, he made investment, but unknowing to him, the project was a scam project. Till today, he still has that bad feeling for him for making him see a bad project. I know it is not completely the promoter’s fault because the investor too ought to have done his own research, but let it start from us first.

I will say promote for the two reasons. Promoting because of money gives a quick financial fix for the quality of a project, that's a long term impact unless a project does have an MVP, working product or real life office/utility it's all built on hype around here there's no k ow what's good and not price is everything.

Most hunters consider the funds that already offered by the campaign rather than try to take the project itself as the main consideration. To change the people's mind is so difficult thing dude.

What they have been thinking about that more money and more rewards.
that opinion must be changed but it looks like an impossible thing.

in reality almost all bounty participants always look at the rewards first before the projects and fortunately im not one of them i always check the projects first is it good or not to join is the project serious if yes then i will join the bounty

I hate to say this because I am also a bounty hunters, but sad to say that majority of them are really after only for the rewards without checking the project very well, and because of that behavior they failed and ended up and crying because the project didn't pay. So, I hope that all bounty hunters
must learn to check, review or research the project so that in the end they will be happy.

it's actually their choice to promote whic bounty that they think worth and have a big chance to success. But for what u said i can't understand how to choose which bounty that have good or bad. It just gambling, it can be good at begin and ended with bad situation

There are a number of projects in the past that are good at the start, complete with everything, responsive to everyone's inquiries, active inside and outside this forum, great team, and all but ended as bad as the shitty ones.

I can still remember I was one of those who helped promote nousplatform through signature. I always check the project before I join them. That is my practice as I do not want to end up with nothing after all the efforts are done for several months. The project looked really great. They have a great team, they are joining roadshows, etc but still they ended up along with the failed projects. It is always hard to pick the right ones.

Nowadays, good project does not end with a good whitepaper but good implementations of the project roadmap even good team faces plays a minimal role.

It will be good to mention that every bounty participants read through the whitepaper or at least the announcement thread before joining the program which may end well or opposite.

A word is enough for the wise, some bounty hunters still choose projects based on bounty allocation and rewards, what should come first as a bounty hunter is how good the project is before any other things, Demand and supply have no be in perfect circulation for every projects to perform better on exchanges

All the projected price of these new coins are useless, the fact is no new coins has and can sustain their ICO price when it hit the market, so if you are a bounty hunters and you still depend or look on the price of token for your rewards, then you are a newbie coming in the campaign.

Majority of the bounty hunters can and will accept coins that can sustain it's price in the market even if the rewards are not that big,
I prefer receiving $100 worth of rewards after I traded it in the market than receiving hundreds of thousands of token that is only worth a few cents in the market.

What? No! avoid choosing projects because many bounty hunters are promoting them, i made such mistakes when i entered this space, many bounty hunters are choosing projects because of big bounty allocations not because of what the project has in store.

Project quality is indeed a priority in choosing a bounty. But the bounty pool must also be considered so that our hard work is not in vain. Especially if the project is good, there will certainly be many who support it, if the participants are not limited, then we will only get a little. That is why we must be wise and understand every risk, each choice must have advantages and disadvantages of each.

Bounty allocation is a part of what bounty hunters should consider because sometimes you will end up with very low rewards if the bounty allocation is very small and many participants joined the bounty too unless there is some kind of restriction on the bounty like limited partiipants

OP has a point if you're the type of guy that has the integrity to only promote projects that you believe in. But majority of the bounty hunters are doing bounties just for ROI, that's it. There's a new offering that lets you choose a quality coin that are already in the exchange for a price of 50% (https://stp.network/?utm_source=lx), it's similar to you gambling with the system but the reward mechanic is huge. The only difference there is that bounty doesn't let you spend a single dime, but just efforts, while those offerings has very minimal entry but can give you the profits that you wanted.

Anyways, we can't blame them bounty hounters tbh. Who doesn't want to earn money just by doing bounties right? And if you're lucky enough, you're promoting the project that you genuinely like and believe in.

Most bounties set how much the rewards of their coins but in reality it is never even close to its price when it is listed on exchange or it will never be listed. But for those who are the best and strong projects have the exact same price and even exceed the set rewards on its bounty campaign when it is listed.

I agree with it, We couldn't really tell how good it is unless it already hits the market
And because of it we would have to wait and see the result .
Every bounty hunters are havig a hard time searching for a good project because there are some project that seem's to be good but ends up being a scam.
So I would rather join a campaign that would pay us with something that could easily be used or already have a value.

before 2018 i got bounty rewords from many projects and gain my capital.but after that in 2019 year too many scam projects started and many bounty hunters stopped there work because of too many scams and failed ico. id like to know any trusted method methods for find quality airdrops and bounty programes

but it is a "JOB" that people do to get paid, otherwise they wouldn't do it. that is how they get them in first place anyways, they promise a pay and then the participants no longer care about what they promote even if it were a pure scam. take a look at all this new drama with Yobit signature campaign, even though it is the worst exchange with lots of scam accusations against them people are still advertising for them only because they may get paid!

It will really had a hard time because each and every bounty success will be measured by its outcome and not on its mission in the market. Yes the platform and the project is good but it will only dictate its success by its outcome thru sales.

promoting bounties and expecting profit from bounties we can expect only in alt coin season which is very near if we are patience we can see benefits from our bounty work

Most of bounty hunters tend to invest when the project has a high reward but it doesn't seem that they are promoting the project because it has a high reward but thier is also a investors who are just promoting a project but it doesn't have a good effect in our sociaty. Investing and promoting a good project can lead to a good environment here in cryptocurrency.

If there would be no reward I doubt that anyone would promote the projects for free.

I have been promoting 5 or 6 projects in my signature so far, and majority died out and had million problems so now their tokens are worthless.

It is very hard if not impossible to know which project will succeed even if it is not scam in the first place.

Time when bounties actually used to work is over. Now bounties only create spam. Twitter Campaigns were used to be very popular back in 2015-2017 due to their high conversions for ICO projects. But as the number of participants grew over time, quality of accounts have started becoming dull and dull. With all those mass follows and follow-back, I doubt any ICO project actually reaches the target audience at all nowadays.
Same goes with signature campaigns too. All good posters usually lurk for Bitcoin paying campaigns. Hence, either low-quality posters or alts are left for bounties. As a result, they are unable to produce results for ICO on forum too.
So its wrong to blame projects alone for unsuccess. The blame should go two-ways. When people can't sensibly promote projects, why should they expect projects to be successful at all!

the fact is that the pool maybe 50 thousand dollars, but if the project is good, then it will grow 10-20 times and your reward will be higher than you expected

At the end of the day, for a lot of people it is just way too tempting not to join the campaigns that are promising allocation of tokens worth millions of dollars, even if the projects are garbage. I have fell in the same trap at the beginning, but I rapidly learned the lesson.

Since many ICOs are scams, people start choosing projects based on the quality of the project, so they can get profit from it, and avoid scams. currently, supporting projects with bounties is still very much worth it. however, if you look at the bounty based on the reward, and not the project, it can be a useless job. currently doing any business need to do research to avoid loss. I totally agree with such a principle. Because of that, Scammers should have begun to realize that it is currently quite difficult to attract investors through projects that they have developed to deceive people. hopefully with this awareness can make a better improvement in the world of cryptocurrency.

There are just too many people participating in the social media bounties, I agree, and every week having to report etc does take time, but on the other hand, some projects can turn out to be really lucrative in the end. I mainly focus on signature, blog and youtube reviews with a few social laced in between as well. I didn't do bounties for a long time but thought now I will get back into it full time as the previous promotional job I did just ended so need as much work as I can handle. I also started doing airdrops and opened a telegram channel too so I can get my friends to join in as well. We need to look at both the economics and viability of a project in order to spend our time and engage in promoting it, both are just as important in my opinion.

Even a good project presentation ico is ending up to be scam once ico is finish what else can you expect in low quality project. Ive been in the ico since start of trend but honestly i dont see any good future any more with the new project even the project has a good and dedicated team member there is no guaranteed it will success.

What are your success criteria in the crypto projects? For me, I want to see a unique idea which is not used and it can be an efficient solution in real life. After reading the whitepaper, the theory side of the idea is somehow understandable but I can't say the same thing when the team starts to apply the written theory in the practice. The diamond projects also don't need promotion for getting a tremendous amount of investment, in my opinion, the investors themselves find these projects.

Said someone who promotes another project that promise to deliver a cryptocard. Cryptocard doesn't exist and will no exist for a long time, until regulations come and bank accept crypto as a payment.

this is not entirely the fault of the prize hunters who judge the project in terms of profit, I think prize hunters will never promote fraudulent projects. but the problem is that projects that they think are good can sometimes turn bad. Important points in this case depend on the expertise of the developer in developing the project.

I feel that knowing or choosing a good project is not easy and sometimes what we observe does not match what is happening, and I feel that promoting bounty because you want to get profit is a natural thing for bounty hunters because they don't want what is done just a waste of time so we need to find a good project but profits remain the reason for every bounty hunter.

Waiting for the 2-3 years is a long time and the other opportunities will not wait for us to finish the old tasks in the crypto market. If the investor has no patience in the legit project, selling on the first price jump is a profitable trade for me. Hundred percent gain is not enough for the new traders and they look for more in the crypto markets. Greedy bounty hunters also sell the bounty earning to the first available market orders after they transfer their bounty rewards to their exchange wallet address.

The biggest problem right now for bounty hunters is finding excellent bounty projects, it's very difficult to distinguish bounty projects that really have quality from bounty projects that only aim to deceive, we can see today many bounty participants complaining about how efforts they are in promoting a project but in the end the project does not pay at all, if I may be honest, it is better to join a bounty project that pays using btc or eth every week, because it is more secure for bounty participants to get a definite payment, rather than participating in a bounty project that pays participants with their tokens after ieo or ico ends, but projects that pay using btc or eth are very limited and only those with high ranks can participate.

To be honest, I really do not think that this is going to be possible. You know why? because the reason most people go into promoting bounties in the first place is for the rewards. There are probably only a few persons who actually promote bounties to tell how genuinely good the project is. Most persons are basically in for the rewards, and that is just about it. Plus, I also think that a lot of them are ignorant of the fact this could actually be a problem as regards tackling the issues of scammers.

agree, if they only seek a profit without thinking about the project being promoted then it is a greed that will ultimately only become regret, because when greed controls you then you will be very susceptible to scams. so only promote good projects with good management then at least you have a wise decision and are able to control yourself well with not greedy

the quality of a project is very important for us to consider before we start to promote the project, so we will not be disappointed after the project ends the campaign and sales period.. but the reward we will receive must also be in accordance with the work we have done for several months. so in my opinion the most important thing we pay attention to is the quality and amount of reward that will be given. because both of them have to be balanced so that we don't feel disadvantaged after working on promoting the project in a few months ..

Old bounties always have low rewards because they are available on exchanges, the teams know that once they distribute many will likely sell, but i prefer old bounties because the payment is assured and new bounties can't be predict,you might not get paid in the end

This is a great advice for hunters. The problem is just that many do not know how to spot the differences between the good and bad projects.
