yes the fact is like that, in this crypto industry there is no full guarantee for you. Even in traditional investment, nothing guarantees you profit. There will be no certainty in future income, and if a project claims their tokens will become more and more expensive over time, it is very likely that they are lying. Of course, that does not mean that they are wrong, however, ensuring that everyone in the inevitable benefit is not responsible, to say the least. If you see a project that claims that your profits will grow tenfold in just six months, it's far more likely to be a good old Ponzi scheme than it really is, as seen in BitConnect.
So, no matter how this promise actually looks, if you see that the project offers you sky-high profits for literally no effort, it probably means that they want to make that profit out of you.

yes first, you need to know that a big prize is not a guarantee for your benefit or the success of a project.. There is a very simple way to determine whether you’re looking at a pyramid scheme or not. If the project in question promises you returns that are higher than their product’s added value, you have all reasons to question the sources of those profits. If you discover that the gain of value comes from more people investing in the product, it’s a very definitive red flag. A responsible project always uses the investment funds to further develop their product, not to pay out some unrealistically high dividends

I agree with all of your opinion about that but it seems like we are seeing so many scam projects are appearing again to the air. For some people and they may still consider the price as the main consideration before try to join in any campaign or investment. But as far as i know some people are calling that as a big risk investment through put money in a high risk investment place but this is not a recommended idea to do.
But im thinking about what will be your point to create this thread, dude? i know if this thread is much more an awareness thread for everyone but at least i really appreciate what are you saying about that.
If they have product and it can be verified through how much profit generated by its product but if that was not having any product and just throw it to the trashcan.

Totally agree with you. Like everywhere in life in the crypto market there is now any guarantee at all. And if promising of the big gains of projects looks deliscious it's more like red flag, and you should definitely think twice before invest.

I often face that problem, many projects now give participants great prizes, but I doubt that. on the one hand the market is in a weakened situation and this can have a big influence on new crypto users especially beginners. they will think about how to get quick profits by investing in projects that offer big rewards. but I do not recommend that decision.

This business is very easy fraud. They utilize crypto weaknesses because they do not have regulations. So it's easy for them to do scams by offering great prizes and sometimes it doesn't make sense. A project like this is very much, and of course, we have to be vigilant and don't be easily tempted.

Our obligation before joining the ICO project, IEO and STO are to ensure that the project is real.

in my analysis there is a simple sign, if the dev team always talk about price,, thats mean the project is not good enough
because the team didn't focusing on development but they focused on price,
wich mean when the price rising, they will dump their token as soon as possible and run away

i would go as far as saying that any project that is giving you "prizes" is a scam. specially if they sold it to you as an investment that will give you a high return!
of course most of these types of shitcoins get pumped at first and the pumps are big but that doesn't change their scammy nature. you should always stay away from projects that are not providing any real world applications for their product and are only aiming to be traded.

yes, a lot of people didn't knew what is this and how it work
thats why a lot of people lose their money in cryptocurrency,,
people should knew, if all kind of investments in risky, including crypto investments
and many people said to DYOR, but the fact thats only words without actions

I have studied something and have realized projects that offer great prizes do not last long. They do that to attract people to invest in their project. Most at times because of the great prizes they give in the beginning, they are not able to continue giving those prizes later on.

often beginners get caught up in projects like that, for me a big prize is not a full guarantee, I say this because learning from experience. I had participated in such a project before but when it was finished, the prize given did not match the agreement at the beginning. well this is a bad experience.

Many bounty projects now offer quite large allocations for bounty / airdrop participants, but after the bounty is completed many of the projects cut unilateral allocations for unreasonable reasons, and of course this is very detrimental for us as bounty participants, moreover when we see the prices of the project token ini market, many that experience price decreases below ico / ieo price after the tokens have been listed in the market.

There was a time when every tokens yielded profit and people blindly jumped into any project to grab quick profit. But that token bubble is gone and now the crypto markets needs to compete with traditional market in regards of funding and investment. There have been approach to make crypto funding as secure as traditional funding but still there are many things to be achieved.

Luring investors with high yield investment plan is very common in crypto space today but there is no one to be blame,not even the scammers or fake developers but the greedy investors, there ars many warning from members that investors must not invest a penny in projects that offers too good to be real returns,obviously they are scam

Apparently, i just don't see any reason why one should invest his/her hard earned money to projects that's seems to offer very high prices when they are nothing but scam projects in the end. Take your time and carefully do research before investing your money into any project.

yes a large prize will not guarantee you, I personally prefer a standard fund that I mean is a medium fund but of course paying rather than a large fund but it is not certain, not to mention when the project ends sometimes there are budget cuts for participants.

It is true my friend, everything that is offering you more than 5 percent per month is nothing more than a ponzi scheme. No project in the world is able to purchase 60 percent during a year, so be careful with such guys. It is better to have more projects with lower revenue but legit ones.

Just like the saying goes that not all that glitters is gold and not everye that supports you wishes you well, most projects promise us moon yet they cant lift us from earth

Greediness is what makes people invest in projects that promises high return of investment in a short period of time,good projects don't give out promises of ROI to investors,they work to achieve greater milestone and this can take years to achieve but in crypto space today we have too many projects that are ponzi kinda

We all need to be patient and calculative in our investment strength, one of the most prevalent schemes in this space is the ponzi scheme, though it's not openly revealed to be one, but could be detected by the details of the investment. Every investment which promises huge returns within a short period of time is a ponzi scheme and should be avoided because they all end up deceiving the investors.

Promises of high income do not carry the slightest trace of truth. Many projects use a well-established scheme to lure potential investors. Playing on people's weaknesses, some bad guys make a lot of money. Be choosy and reasonable.

Now a very large number of bounty campaigns promise a good profit if the conditions they dictate are met.
But not everyone fulfills the promise.
I always try to learn as much as possible about the development team and this guarantees that they will not deceive me.

A lot of projects say they have a big bounty fund and quote some huge figure, but they don't really highlight the fact that this is often a maximum, based on the project hitting hardcap. If they have hardcap of $100m, but only sell $1m in ICO, then that bounty reward drops by a factor of 100. The figures quoted do sometimes need to be considered carefully.

Anything in life that offers returns too good to be true for the amount of risk you're taking by attempting to get those returns is likely not legitimate, or there's string attached that aren't clearly stated. Do your own research and decide if something's worth investing in, don't ever just take the word of the project you're looking at. Almost all of the crypto-based projects with insanely good returns or promised returns that I can remember have turned bad for investors.

You are right and we need to know that in such ponzi or high yield projects the true winners are the people behind them because they have the control over all the money and a few early joiners who had maximum opportunity to withdraw the most, i always suggest friends to stay away from ponzi like projects as i have also fallen for many in the past so i do not want others to loose in such projects as well.

When I select a project for participation, I make sure that the project has a finished product and what profit can be obtained at the same time. Most projects that promise huge amounts of profit turn out to be fraudulent. I do not believe such promises - this is always a hoax and therefore I do not participate in them, as I have come across such a trick several times.

This type of fraud can occur with a variety of tempting offers, offering to tens of times over several months and many other methods.
In my opinion, there are so many ways that we can not get trapped as long as our minds are still running logically. Only people who never think that often experience it.
I have seen this kind of event myself where I live, one of the crypto investment projects held a meeting with the aim of attracting investment to invest in the project, I just mentioned the name of the project (True Coin).

Are there still investors who can believe the empty words of the project team? I think that all now only trust action and do not build illusions about sky-high profit.

I really like that statement.
In fact, many lay people who are new to cryptocurrency want to join and get the maximum profit, they are easily influenced by the lure of multiplying profits. They do not understand the cryptocurrency ecosystem, so they are easily fooled.

Yeah there's a lot of people getting scamm because they offer great prizes and grab the opportunity without any learning, that the mistake of the people specially the newbies herein crypto community, they grab the high prize offer but at the end they get scam because of laxk of study about the offer.

The wise investors know this fact and they avoid to invest in these projects: If there is no product, the product is you.  
The probabilities are not going to solve the problems caused by the teams, the team is responsible to deliver the product by the promised idea. Investment strategies are not prepared in one night, the Ponzi scheme projects are carefully filtered by the smart investors.

Great rewards can be 5% of the total coin supply in bounty campaigns, but the experienced bounty hunter avoids to participate in the highly ridiculous boutny allocation projects. The similar logic is also used by the investors and they don't want to be a part of the shilled crypto projects as a shareholder.

I once joined a project that promised that they would give big prizes to the participants, but when they were on their way they changed the prize rules and even disappeared without further news. from then on I began to reconsider before joining a project that gave a big prize

We should be vigilant enough to select which projects we should be joining in. Great and high prize or high returns seems attracting and majority of the peope joined with them because of in need of the money. Without further thinking that it is impossible to give such high prizes with unsure results. Thus making it surely a scam. I do hope, people will get to know the project even better before choosing to join them not to waste one's effort and time.

I called projects with high rewards PONZI,the following is how i categorized these projects

Short term ponzi projects
These projects are famous in crypto space,they aim to do pump and dump and mostly this projects are rushed,they have bad designs and cheap domains like xyz or .mobi, they are mostly Prove of Work based algo as well

Long term ponzi projects
These projects are they most scary ones,they are hard to detect because they mostly plan to stay around for a year or even more,this projects are build by pro scammers and they go all lent to make sure the project looks so real,they introduce high returns investment and they pay investors with the same money from investors,if care is not taken you will easily fall victim

From experience , a good project dosent bother about price value and investors also are not quick to judge project with its price value! The most important is how to develop what’s  on white paper and make it a reality. Any project that puts price tag and ROI ahead of project development is not to be taken serious !

Right. Be careful with high-bid projects to avoid things that can lead us to losses. My advice, just choose BTC to invest that is more controlled and guaranteed, rather than trusting projects that promise to offer high but deceptive offers.

Probably everyone has a story, after which we begin to take more care of our money. Sometimes we have to make a mistake to start thinking with our heads and not make hasty decisions. Not everyone can learn from the mistakes of others.

in this case you need to pay attention to the project developer and most importantly about how to use your money properly, each project has a different budget and if they offer a large prize you need to pay attention to all the consequences. I prefer a small gift but is legal to pay.

That is the current general situation. A lot of bounty has disappeared after running for a few weeks. I tried choosing bounty from good managers, but it still didn't solve the problem

There's just no guarantee for both high priced and low priced projects. What's left for every investor is to do their research, make their investment decisions, stand by it each ever way it goes. Guarantee is in a projects prowess to develop their project to the highest standards expected of them.

I never look to the promise of gold, we should never see the diamonds on their profit promise.
We should focus on the team members and their contribution to the whole.
We should see the mission and vision of the project and what they will be and wanna be for the future.

I think there is no guarantee to make a profit from any of investment. The big prizes don't guarantee to be the potential project that will grow in the future, but it could reach the success if they have a solid team always to back up the project and support the project. If they don't have, then it just a dream that will not come true. We already have to see many projects offer great prizes, but in the middle of the phase, the project stops their works and says that they have a problem inside the project.

So we need to be careful to choose the project, don't tempt with the big prizes that they offer, only with searching on many sources to find more about them will help us to decide. If you are doubt, don't participate in the project and search the other project because that will not worth your time.

yes now many expressions of golden promises from various projects they have presented, but the reality is different from what they say. my advice you should not be too tempted by projects that offer big prizes, all you have to do is check their clarity at least you can avoid fraud projects.

Post starter I would like you to tell me a project that doesn't believe that the project would multiply in price over time even scam project also predicts that there project would have value.  if we are not to go for such project then we will end up not going for any project at All

Yeah, anyone always easy to say profit. Promise you with Big ROI, bla bla bla then dissappear like a shadow. Hardly to say but thats the truth of condition right now, especially in project which is related to crypto. I always saying many times in this forum "Please do Due Diligence 1000x before joining to any project". Don't be lazy for reading, analyze, learn something. Because got promised with easy money can created the stupidity in your brain. CMIIW  ;D

Great projects developers will never educate investors concerning how gainful it will be on the off chance that they put Money into their project,they work in like manner to their whitepaper and leave the rest to the market demand,i avoid projects that chases for HYPE by all means,spreading phony prizes to bait investors,these kinds of projects will have a short life in time

Indeed there is no guarantee, because we do not deal directly with them in the real world. Most of those who are attracted are new investors, who participate because of promotions and invitations from friends. And that can be said to be crime or fraud.

We must know that there are risk in anything, trading, investing even joining bounties. But without trying we will never got a chance to acquire the possible prize. Just don't put too high expectations in everything. See for yourself if it will worth it. The amount the effort and the research you'll do in that project somehow along the way you'll realize if it's project is able to provide the prize.

Thanks for this, I really understand that projects that usually place a high price are just doing so to lure people into participating and helping them promote the project, they are just using the promo mechanism to take money from investors without having much to really offer them, and all they can offer is just to have them on exchange, collect more money by dumping token, after which the projects starts to reduce one after the other till it no longer exist.

For those who has been willing to know the methods that is used to really discern which project is real or not, I think this is one of the great methods that is being used. There are still several methods, but a real project with real product would never really act like this r bringup huge rewards as this.

There are no guarantees whatsoever in this market, guarantees depend only on each of you. I mean about investing properly or putting your money in a safe place, I always remind you that before you invest, make sure your financial management is specialized in the crypto market and separated for daily needs. Sorry, if the worst possibility happened to you, at least you still have funds from other deposits.

Yes, I already noticed that campaigns that promise big profits and even count a large number of their tokens in the future, as a rule, I don’t get anything at all. Various difficulties always appear, KYC checks that drag on for years, wallet changes, swaps, the situation drags on so much that in the end nothing is paid at all. At the same time, inconspicuous campaigns in most cases easily add their tokens to our wallets and they bring a small but stable profit.

For project developer, the best strategy to attract investors is to be positive and most times promise unrealistic price pump to investor, As an investor I ensure I invest after detailed research and I ensure I invest what I can afford to loose,  project developer do not have control over the cryptocurrency space, to determine the impact of the market trend on there project.

The newbies mostly get fooled by those and I'm one of it when I'm still new to cryptocurrencies and these schemes. This isn't for crypto but you can also see these scams in other financial investments. Their strategy is to ask for a small investment but they'll promise you tremendous returns for not doing anything which is already a red flag. Someone who's too greedy and lacks of financial education will fall for this, I'm glad that there were generous people here that explained this to me after I became a victim.

My approach usually is if it is too good to believe I would stay away. When projects promise unrealistic but mouthwatering prices I better watch it because they are likely not going to be able to make good their promise . Been involved a couple of times with such projects but I have learnt my lessons and I am now much cautious

You have said it all, I really don't think it's wise for a project team to say how much their token will worth in a certain amount of time as there are factors in this space which affects price; but rather if the project is as good as they say then it will prove itself by maintaining a certian price which is of course will be caused by what the project is offering. We really need to be careful though, because most people are always drawn by what they hear and thus leaving out research from their minds. There are many Ponzi around looking for newbies to deceive.

Most of them will not want to come out straight to tell you the fact and what is realistic, but with make a lot of promises that can never be fulfilled.
I have learnt not to trust them with such words. It us even an indication that all they have said are just lies and should not be believed.
It is better to say the truth, than tell lies and at the same, there is nothing to show forth for it.

therefore analysis and other due diligence must be done well, we can also discuss with the local community or even discuss here to get the best choice in each of our investments.

I think this things must be know by people from long time ago. There are no guarantee even in real investment. So people must be already prepared for something like this, and know what they do. I mean, in investment that have volatile like bitcoin or other altcoins, people shouldn't trust anyone. And keep believe with themself so they not blame anyone or maybe anything if they fail.

at times like this many people make their own rumors and this actually confuses us when following it, and ultimately erodes our confidence, will be at high risk if we do not have confidence. therefore you may read news from various sources, but we personally must have an attitude, so that we can still think positively, Moreover, tempting offers sometimes make us interested, again we have to re-examine before deciding

I believe behind the great profit, there are some great risks.
If there is a project offering a huge profit with no risk, it is clearly a scam project for me.
Always be suspicious if there is something sounds too good, it will save us from fraud.

Yes, an attractive pool is good, but it can sometimes be deceiving.
I prefer a project that pays in small amount and yet it is real and has prospects than become a bagholder of shitcoins.
There are so many of them. The best way to avoid them is by sticking to good bounty managers.

You are right that many projects offer huge gains but are experiencing failures. Even if it is checked that the team is not transparent and does not provide information on project development. Maybe we can find a more realistic project and have a clear roadmap. But all decisions are in your hands, most importantly always vigilant.

Yes, I agree with your opinion. These days, A new project offering high return or big bonuses for a tiny investment. So that investors become greedy and buy as much they can. The project authorities announce big prizes so that more people get interested and once they got a big amount of investment they utterly ran away.

So, Investors like us should always be conscious of this sort of scam project. I think people who invest are smart enough to estimate a project. We have internet, google to find all the info on a project. I don't consider those projects that giveaway free token in bounty for small works. I think those tokens are worthless thats why millions of tokens are giving away almost freely I would say.

The author rights, I with him agree.Of course you can not just believe the beautiful words,they can say anything,their task is that we invested in their projects.Now it is generally difficult to get investment in the project, investors have already been taught.

Yes, something that promises a big prize is not necessarily true or mirni, when prices are weakening there are several projects that offer big for participants, but ultimately zero, so to get the best investment must analyze the information correctly, every project that wants to join either a big offer or small believe the origin stem in general and the rules are openly clear

Great prizes is a main red flag first of all

I agree with you the most important thing is the transparency of the team and the project work map, a big prize is no guarantee for the success of the project. transparency of the team or the reputation of the developer in managing the previous project that we need to pay attention to because it is currently very vulnerable about project fraud.

The saying applies to anything in general and in context especially to crypto .if something is too good to be true then it probably is. Don't fall for extravagant offers even if they are for bounties.

Great prizes are indeed a red flag but that doesn't mean it would be a failure. I have seen and made profit of such coins which had great prizes when it was still unknown. But of course most of them suck in the end.

I remember the Athero real estate project which gave the approximately $1mln to the bounty hunters. The price was calculated in average dollar value but the price of the token fall due to the market circumstances. The big reward promised bounty campaigns fail in my opinion and the exceptiona don't change this rule in the crypto bounty campaigns.

I would say be careful with every projects

Offering great prizes are a representation of what to expect from the project
Offering low prizes are also a show of what to come

Neither determines success; it only presume what is to come

well ........ that's what investors need to know before investing in any project. because in the market there are no guarantees whatsoever and what determines your destiny is about your own way of managing your financial management.

Developers has one sure popular way of luring investors to invest in their project and that is giving invest discount price per token and of cos promising them huge return of investment but alas any project that promises ROI is obviously a red flag, even good projects can't predict what will happen in near future but fake projects are promising investors fake returns

Yes, indeed, now there aren't as many good and promising projects as before. And I choose them with big trepidation and caution, based on personal criteria, and not on promises of great prizes or rewards. It seems to me that this is advice for new people in crypto who have just begun their way here.

I have participated in many projects that offer great prizes, but most of them are scams

finding a good project and paying right, now is like a fortune. I really hope that IEO will be a guarantee for hunters or ICO investors

It's true that often with bounties the rewards don't live up to the expectation. But I'm not sure this is the fault of the bounty project itself, it's just normal that they list the maximum possible reward, based on the project hitting hard cap. And they usually don't hit hard cap, which means firstly that the reward is proportionally smaller, and secondly that supply outstrips demand, which means prices are bound to fall as soon as the coin is tradeable (quite apart from any downwards pressure there might be on the market as a whole). I just think sometimes we can be unrealistic in our expectations.

Little or big money allocation isn't a warranty for success all is based on team development of their project makes price stable in market.

Any projects that do give out guarantee is quite common among projects but there are really some numbers that do really
convince you out hardly that their token will go or rise those multipliers on a short period of time.Im pretty aware on bitconnects
existence where it do give out interest on the amount invested to their tokens but eventually fall down to the floor later on leaving
out lots of fools who do believe on such scheme.Lending type are quite common into those previous years when the market is mooning
an as we all know there no such guarantees that we will able to see yet any coins will be subject to said support from the community.

These days, people want projects that promise high price and want to get rich quick. So, I think you are right because I know anything in life needs our effort. Most Effortless stuffs are more or less not true

Certainly not a guarantee but some prices looks ridiculously huge. It makes you wonder if the team can actually pay that considering the fact that it might be one third of fourth of their softcap. I prefer moderate prices that the hyped prices

We need to carefully know where we are going as far as profit making in crypto is concerned. Not all bounty projects are good and beneficial to us. We must not allow ourselves to be deceived by empty promises of some bounty projects. There should be a good level of assurance we have in projects that we are investing into. In most cases, the bounty reward tokens of some projects might not be really much but the profit to derive might be so big. We have to know what the future holds for any coin we tend to invest into. Some projects could look so magnificent by the kind of roadmap projection they have, but they might be of no great values. The intensity of our research into any bounty projects must be high. We have got to answer some questions in ourselves before we plung into some bounty projects most times.

Any project that keep speculating on the price is always a turn off for me. But recently I came across a project that promise $10 guess what, the project actually deliver upto $10 within a short time. But within 24hrs this token dump from $10 down to $0.6 so many people got burnt. I bliv the team actually pump the token and dump them on people.

I often see projects that offer large prizes to participants or offer large bonuses to investors. I don't think that's bad, but in fact most of them are not in accordance with the agreement at the beginning. it is only about common sense that no one wants to take a loss in a short amount of time. I mean before investing in any project, don't trust too much with a big prize offer.

Offering investors good bonuses seem to be the only way to attract investors for new projects this days and 90percent of these new projects end up not keeping their promises once they get hold of their ICO fundraising money and even the few project that ends up getting on exchanges ends up listing on worst exchanges, i think the fault is on the investors,knowing which exchange the project want to list should be first priority for every investors

Project developers can not say in advance that you will earn a profit several times. If they immediately tell you that you will get such a profit, then you need to be careful with the project perhaps it is created by scammers and the increase in profits is shown in order to lure more investors.

This is absolutely good topic to discuss. If the promise is too much then we should already know that they will not fullfil the promises. There are lots of projects in this category. Better be safe than sorry.

these are common things and things that need to be understood. many people out there, even outside the world of cryptocurrency who always offer bonuses or large profits. without work, or with a little investment, it must be researched was done before helping them.
some projects also have concepts to attract investors by giving large, and extraordinary prizes. That does not guarantee success. however, what guarantees success is a good concept, and professional team support, not a big prize

Definitely don't be fooled by projects just because of them offering great prizes to people, especially if there's no assurance and system behind it that can make it happen. It's better to invest in coins that are legitimate and takes care of their community, there are a lot of coins that successfully funded but after that, they already shy away from the community.

But instead these projects should incentivize their users to use their platform more, similar to a fashion market (http://apm-coin.com/?utm_source=lx) that entered the blockchain scene and will use crypto to reward members. We will be needing more of those by major companies to help adoption but at the same time, DYOR so that you won't get tricked by these flowery statements. Check if the roadmap is achievable or not as well.

Thats true, if the offer is too good to be true then expect it to be scam.

So we need to be careful on choosing where to invest or bounties to follow because not all projects are genuine.

Regrets are always in the end thus to avoid yourself from ending up to be a victim be extra careful.

taking into account, that regular people, quite a lot of them have no idea what crypt is and how it is working and what's drives it.. but they do heard or read that crypto is very profitable.. but usually people do not tend to understand critical and important information abut risk of investment to the crypto.. high volatile market and like that stuff..  and then a lot of people lose their money in cryptocurrency, which is sad and they ask feds to do something about it. I guess government should regulate or tech something about investments, people should knew, if all kind of investments not crypto stuff only are risky, and potentially the one could loose all..

Big rewards in crypto space from any projects is a very good clue of what the project will become, its nothing but a scam in the end, the only way for them to attract investors is to offer high returns of investment and new people in crypto space will eventually fall victim for such

Big prizes and small prizes are both has no guarantee.
What we should look for is the project itself and the team behind it.
Their future plans and development! that is the main attraction to have.
Those big prizes are just the front to make people come and get the attention!

Indeed the prizes offered are very large not guaranteed to be successful and even that may be fraudulent. I've been tempted by such projects and the results when they have accumulated a lot of money from investors, then they bring the investor money.

Research and analysis must be conducted before deciding to join a Bounty project.

Nowadays projects like IEO may be a good choice for investing. Because our sales project can directly monitor in exchange. But I advise you before joining should do the checking. If you doubt it is better not to join or invest.

Sounds like a fool, but it's normal because I'm still a beginner, I like projects that offer big prizes but in reality they only offer sweet promises and I agree that big prizes are no guarantee for project success.

I agree with your opinion, the scam business model now has many models so we have to be smart to examine them. getting to know the bounty scam is really hard because the project is good, a good team with a big success can become a scam project, for example exscudo case.

In any case, very generous rewards cause distrust and fear.  But I want to draw your attention to the fact that such projects can be not only fraudulent, but also quite realistic ones.  But this does not mean that the Bounty Hunter will receive all the rich rewards for his work.  The team, as always, can find any reasons to reduce remuneration and pay only 10% of the amount that was promised under the terms of the company.  An example is the MenaPay Bounty.

I also want to think so, otherwise you can cut off all projects at once, the difficult market is a struggle between projects for survival

Crypto market is now all about survival of the fittest, if projects aren't strong enough or investors don't have interest in the project its the end of such project, to me this season seem like an helper, cleaning off bad projects one by one, newbies are the ones keep falling victim to good offers because to me nothing comes for free, if greed is in your blood you will always be a scam victim

Honestly, there are real projects who are offering promising rewards generously. We may doubt about them but there are still other ways to check their legitimacy. Checking the team behind that project and observing the activeness of a team would be a great help too. However, there are really lots of projects who offers too much and too good to be true rewards, we must be observant all the time and do a series of research before joining or investing.

Big prizes are a top priority for most prize hunters, well, including me, one of them who likes to join large reward projects but is not worth the stake allocation due to ranking limitations. now I prefer projects based on real concepts and reliable teams, although I estimate the rewards I will receive are not large but at least I am sure this project will achieve good results.

I have never heard that any legal project has already promised for big profit. Everyone says their project is good, but it is not about making a profit. Before the coin is listed, we do not know what it will be. We all want big profit, but we do not want to meet another scenario while we wait for it. Instead of researching how much the profit will be, researching the project causes to better results.

News is always giving a hint on how we can prepare if there will be a motion in market. with this we can earn more knowledge and those project will be easy to identify because you already knew what there main purpose. always believe that crypto has a lot of greedy people. always be observant.

I agree with what you say that there is no guarantee of your benefits in cryptocurrency. That's how investing in cryptocurrency, anything can happen and every project will always provide good news about their projects to attract investors to invest in it and sometimes with a great offer makes us easily attracted. But, I just remind you not to believe too easily and make your own observations about the project before making a decision to invest in it.

not only that , also we must be careful too with project that offer crazy idea or the project idea have a no sense.
for example, Sparkster(SPRK) , a shitty project, The project claims on its website that the Sparkster network is highly scalable, able to handle more than ten million transactions per second,ppffftt.
and now , people who invested in the project will regret what they do.
according to data on CMC Sparkster ROI about -98.66%.
we know humans have imagination, but we must know the limits of imagination itself.

Of course every businessman or manufacturer hypes their wares and this is rightly so because you have to put up techniques to ensure you get buyers/investors. I don't see anything wrong in that provided they aren't doing it to scam people. In 2017, many projects even over did their projections and investors went home smiling because of easy ROI. But this isn't so today. I guess the crash of 2018 has now made every recent projections doubtful.

the market, of course, corrects plans, and most do not cope with the situation, it’s difficult to work in such a market now, and advertising is of course necessary

Huge bonuses, big discounts and insane bounty allocations were always the biggest problems of the industry. If a project collects 2 million dollars it does not make sense to make 100 percent bonus and spend 1 million on bounty programme, because such decision will destroy the entire economics of the project.

Yes, such projects are now widely suspected by the crypto community and many assume they will bring bad things in the crypto economy, so I think for bounty participants not to be fooled by large funds they usually only use bounty participants to promote their projects and then participants bounties only get a small fee because usually the price of their tokens is destroyed in the market

This is also why i don't join in bounty campaigns that doesn't managed by trusted campaign managers or bounty campaign that have been promoted in social media sites

In the crypto industry, nothing is guaranteed at all.
Projects that became successful at the time of creation and fundraising did not offer crazy income to their investors, but an idea.
They brought something new to the crypto market, and it was with this that they attracted attention. New projects often offer nothing but promises of endless revenue.

That's a marketing strategy that they do in order to attract more investors. We should not make an investment to a project that is something fishy. We can lose our money to the scammers that offeeing high return on their ahit projects.

I experienced to get scammed sfter I invested on a project that guarantee high returns. I thought that I can easily increase my capital, I lose my money because of my greediness. It is one of the lessons that I got so I do not know investing that for me can be called as shit projects.

Any platform that promises huge percentages of 20%-250% for basically giving them your money is something you should flee from.

We are closer to December; and there will be different categories of scams and scam exit
You need to dyor and stay safe

I think if people offer you a high price and good pay for hardly any work that something is wrong. You always see these guides they sell and want you to buy. Like, make $100 a day with only half an hour of work.
There are many cases where you can make a lot of money with little work but that is called working smart. Most people are lazy and give up an opportunity to make money so not everything is too good to be true, if you never try it then you will never know. Remember rockstars and artists and other rich people live the life they live which seems too good to be true yet they living it.

If the deal or promise of the investment is too good to be true, it will be most likely to fail or end up as a scam. Beware of this kind of unrealistic promises because if you let your greed drive you, one way or another, you would crashed. Also, it is necessary to understand then accept that every decision you make with your investment has always risks no matter how hard you do to reduce them. There is no perfect investment but there are ideal ones which are rare like diamonds in the mine.

Personally I think any project promising huge ROI as marketing strategy has a red flag for that, a good project should showcase good features and let investors decide if they will invest or not. Not promising huge profits when listed, this looks crappie. Last month I read through a white paper and under Token Generation Event, they promised at least x5 upon listing, this type of project is obviously scam. We shouldn't allow greed to ruin us, they are just trying to take advantage of your greed and scam you, it's that simple. A good project will focus more on development, rather than price talks.

in the cryptocurrency market, you need to choose ISO projects very carefully, I usually track information on this https://neironix.io/ico-rating, there is a lot of scam on the market, so choose projects carefully or it’s better to just invest in bitcoin it will be more reliable.

You can actually know some information to some users that is actually experienced their offer. You can know if that offer or rewards are legit if they are recommending that. You should have study that5 particular project before you should trust them since we are in a digital world, there are lots of scammers that is in here so we should be careful in every decision or move we take for us to secure our money. Have courage and patience in every investing you are planning because money is not easy to gain, you need to wait for the right time until the project succeed. And most importantly, you should have to study and learn in every mistake or decision you make.

Most scammers nowadays are doing hype in the market for them to attract users and investors, yes there's no guarantee with it. That's why be very careful before investing and before you join and do KYC in their platform as there are lots of scammers using every identity of every person to scam.

if you found the project that promise and guarantee with high roi or something else, stay away from that, I believe it will end in fraud. even now there are a lot of projects that don't actually require tokenization. it's all just a trick to scam people.

I agree that we should not be tempted by the big bonus that will be given. Large bonuses can also result in prices falling when the initial listing and not also guarantee projects that provide large bonuses are legitimate projects

When it is too good to be true then it is a scam. Don't be greedy when it comes to joining into projects and do your research first before investing your time, effort and money into something. There is a lot of scams out there and it is not worth of your time so you better educate yourself first on the things that you need to check before you get in.

As I have seen in several new projects, team members are always active and carry out all their activities, but their obligation to pay for the work of the bounty hunters are always postponed if the price of their altcoins starts to decline.
doing research is a good thing, but luck is always needed because some new projects always make changes about the distribution date of the altcoin they provide for the bounty campaign

yes it is true, projects that given a lot of purchase bonuses and promise high profit returns, after the ICO ends most of them have no value. Even their tokens have never been listed on the central exchange, even though they have been running for more than 6 months since ICO ends.

yes, you are right to say, there is no full guarantee when we work on a project, whether they will keep their promises or not. You say that a project that promises huge rewards without effort is too easy, it is possible that the project just wants to take advantage of us. even for a project that promised to give reasonable rewards, many also lie for now. therefore we must be good at doing research first before we participate in a project.

Giving a big prize is a trick of their marketing so that someone wants to join. Personally, giving bonuses to new members or new investors is a lack of confidence in the project. Because what they sell is a bonus not a good idea and product. From this, it is clear that they just want to make you tempted and will take your money. Don't be small fish who want to get the big lure because of it just greed, but be a whale, eat small objects and be big.

I strongly agree with your opinion, there is no guarantee that can be ascertained to know that the project will provide rewards to us, when the project is over. in the past I also felt cheated by a project, even though I had researched the development team beforehand and I thought the project was good, but I did not get a reward when the project ended. but all that I'm not too sorry, maybe I'm still not lucky. In essence, we must continue to try our best to see and research the projects that you will participate in, because by doing so you have minimized the level of fraud against you.

indeed, at the moment there are many projects that offer very high prizes and many are scams, many participants are deceived like that, some time ago I have experienced an event like this, you better find more information before you become a participant in a new project so that you can avoid fraud like that which makes many people suffer losses.

An active team but can't provide good innovation and update, it's useless.
they delay it might be the purpose is to reduce the worst conditions. Although the distribution was postponed or not, in fact the project conditions were indeed bad. we lose.
it's better if we join a project where the prizes are normal and not many and not small, big prizes have many problems in the end.
btw, if we think about it, indeed everything can't guarantee.

It’s absolutely true that when any cryptocurrency projects promise huge profits in the future, it’s better to bypass such projects and just watch them from time to time, so that they really can achieve what they promised or not, and in general such projects are usually scam and better just ignore them.

projects that provide large prizes may have an effect on market prices because price dumps can occur. plus investors will reduce interest if the percentage of prizes is large, therefore you should look for projects that provide sufficient pay and also have potential in the future. because the projects give big rewards, sometimes they cannot survive in the future

Indeed there are some projects that offer huge benefits but at the end of the project we cannot get satisfactory results even the time we spend does not match the results, but there are also some projects that offer not lucrative but the results we can satisfy, then we are very difficult to judge a good project for us to follow.

Such offer from developers is part of the marketing plan. Each project are somewhat designed to attract investors so I guess projects always promote their project that way, of course that is aside from promoting the product or the service it self. That is why investors should always do their reaearch and mudt have a good judgement whether if what is written in the white paper can be achieved by the team.

If the deal is too good to be true, then it is normal to start doubting the legitimacy of the project. I always look forward on realistic promises of the project instead of the projects that always say that you can earn XXX times if you invest on them. It is important to understand that you can only earn a lot if you bought the coin in one of its lowest price and then a bull run happened for that coin. The chances are slim and even if the prices go up, it's not as much as you initially expected.

There have been series of projects, where the developers would have already stated the expected price on exchange. Most times, particularly the ones that I have witnessed. They all failed. Projects like that end up as scam
.
One thing I believe in is that, the market determines the price.

It's a little suspicious when a project gives a big bonus, even though it is common to attract investors. In the midst of market conditions that are currently not good, new projects are competing to attract investors and one way is to provide a large bonus, but if we do not do research in advance on the project, we could be exposed to fraud

Projects that focus on money (rather than tech and solving some real-world problem) to attract investors are scams by default in my eyes. It's the first and most obvious red flag. With thousands of coins out there, no sensible developer would dare claim that their coin will see a price increase. They can hope it will, sure. They should, their project's future may very well depend on it. But to openly claim it — nah, I'm not buying it.

Even with the legit investments, they doesn't guarantee you an exact profit. They might give you only a certain amount if the company has proved themselves and operating for a lot of years.
But with projects that are newly launched, when you see that they are offering such tremendous amount for profit, doubt it. Don't bite your greediness because that could be a trap.

Offering high return of profit for their investors i think this is not more than marketing strategy and the devs will do everything to attract investors invest at their projects and the decissions will belongs to the investors themself whether they will invest or not but before being an investors then people should be choose wisely and aware the risk behind it because as you says above nothing is certain in crypto and there is no 100% guarantee safe

Yes, I agree with you, we need to be more careful with projects that offer great prizes. because maybe some of the projects are scams. they offer great prizes for dancing us to join in and promote scam projects. and then they run away with investors' money. it's better if you want to participate in a prize campaign project if you choose a project whose manager and team are experienced and honest people. even though the pay isn't great.

One of the scammers trap that is effective is giving great prizes. Usually many are chasing without learning about projects
it was because of the mind diverted by the great prizes. So be careful with projects that offer you great prizes, that is not a
guarantee of. Therefore, before we accept a project, we should study the project carefully so we can conclude these projects
are real or fake. Do not let our vigilance be distracted by the prizes offered.

Agreed, good projects should not promise huge profit to their investors as it might cause a huge damage to the proejct' reputation. I prefer invest in the projects which are likely to show a natural growth.

Assessing a project is indeed very difficult, so we need careful analysis in terms of choosing a project, of course it makes no sense if the project offers many benefits to everyone, while they are just starting.

well, I am in agreement with you, because a good project is a project that shows the quality and development of their project, not just providing mere profit.

in essence, investing in the crypto world is almost the same as investing in real estate or other investments. the risk of loss remains and is also quite large, depending on how the project will proceed. my advice is do not be easily tempted, and I agree with you that the promise of the dev team with a profit of% after we invest and counted in large amounts, in my opinion it is indeed suspicious.

especially if it's a new project because they haven't launched the token to the market exchange yet. invest safely by choosing your own based on observations we see the crypto market that currently exists, for example bitcoin, etherum, xrp, or in the list of the top 100. it will be more secure, at least you are not deceived because the coins are already on the market and clearly the capitalization.

As our current situation in the bounty campaigns, it is impossible for every project to raise enough money to provide allocated funds in the bounty campaigns. We should not expect too much bounty and do not be blind by their offer.


Analyzing a project is one of our tasks, that's why thinking advance and realizing the possible things to happen and assessing our current situation can help to avoid these kinds of projects.

Currently, most new projects in the market that are conducting IEO and ICO are just here to raise some money and leave the project to die at price then blame it on bounty hunters or bearish market. Any project that guarantees a good price after IEO or ICO is most likely a scam, all that did that in the past are all dead.

Good projects do have reasonable rewards as well, every developers must find a way to attract investors so its always part of the plan but if the reward is too good then there is a problem, there is a big chance that the project is a scam

Yes you are right the legit projects always offer such rewards which they can afford and they have a good budget for their projects while the scam projects will always offers such a big rewards they even do not have that amount of budget, so instead of taking decision in hustle we should investigate about the projects and instead of attracting towards them we should check their budget.

Never heard of projects offering great "prizes". All they say is that investors will receive some sort of reward. Like a very high amount of extra tokens or something (which is one of the main reason why price of the tokens gets ruined and falls down). People fall for those shitty project looking at those early bird rewards. Once they receive their token, they see that the price gets dumped (probably by the developers themselves) and they lose a lot.
Just don't invest on projects if you are not willing to take huge risks.

sometimes a person can be easily attracted to a project that gives a high pay and therefore they do not research in it maybe because they see a great and interested interest. we must always do research before joining or we will be trapped and only waste time and capital spent

You are very right, as an investor if you want to invest in a project, ensure you do total and complete research to know if the project is worth it, also if you see a project offering very huge bonus, please be watchful ,it could be a way of attracting more investors to the project.

Most of the times, I do not like seeing very low pool of projects, but it is much better than a project that has very large pool and yet nothing good is coming out of it. Some might be scam, while others might just be due to negligence or unprofessional handling of things.

doing research on a project is very important before entering into a project because the ratio of scam projects in these days are increasing at a greater rate, and we know that all that glitter is not gold so be extremely careful while taking any step because scam projects will always offer something very big that every innocent will attract towards it.

Great prizes means there will be a lot of tokens to be dumped immediately after exchange launch which is a bad thing. Investors make this mistake of thinking that they are getting much more from bogus bonuses being offered them.

Too much rewards mean the developer is trying to use everything they can to gather money as much as possible regardless how much money actually needed for the project to execute the idea. These kind of project usually gets dumped a lot and as a result people who invest will just ended up having a huge loss. Always choose a project that is reasonable and never ever invest into this kind of project because I've seen a lot of project like this and fail anyway.
A good project is a project that could execute their idea even when the money gathered is just suifficient or enough, that kind of project usually have trusted developers aswell.

Good prices are attractive but I have adopted this strategy of avoiding projects that are too good to be real. I hate burning my fingers unnecessarily

A good project will span a lot of years and worth promoting it unlike those projects that has the tendency to fail due to their bogus and juicy promises  whose life span will surely be short-lived its high time we should be wary of those fraudulent offers that had been painting cryptospace in a bad light and ensured that we promote projects that will add value to the system.

Whether as a bounty Hunter or investor it is safer to research the project to be sure the initiators and promoters are not over exaggerating things

I might be wrong but I think if it is too good to be true in terms of rewards promised, I should better ignore such projects

Under this harsh economic ecosystem why would anyone one promise returns that are out of the ordinary. I think only the gullible ones usually fall for such economic gimmick

Folks should look before they leap if they don't wanna fall prey to some predator who make promises they cannot fulfil.

Re they still projects that make such humongous promises. Considering the downturn in the crypto-currencies market unrealistic promises this day is usually easy to detect

In order not to fall prey to some scammers either unrealistic and near impossible rewards I usually do due diligence and research but I get involved with any projects. It helps

Maybe folders should pay more attention to the white paper of projects. There you would who is behind it, their antecedents , whether they can pull the promised reward through with respect to what they have done before

In other words, people should stay away from projects that looks too good to be true, I have never been a big fan of projects that promise bug returns but one thing people still tend to fall for is projects that promises dividends for holding their tokens but if you study most of this projects, you would notice that their prices in exchanges fall so much and those holding the tokens would already be losing even though they are collecting dividends. Avoid Greed and bear in mind that Cryptocurrency investments are highly risky investments and you would be ok.

We cannot equalize all the project that claims will give lot of profits means the project will scam. We can see the IEO project from binance launchpad, it is not growing 10x times in six month. Even it's instantly 10x price right after the IEO ends. Good project that has a good future are promising in cryptocurrency era, but good project are few. That's the challenge for us investors to make a good choice what project that will make profits for us

Yes, it is important to make analyzation before using any project I know there are so many projects that we can use to gain money by crypto but never trust anyone without making research. New projects are less trusted than the old because for all investors it’s good to be with old projects that people used for years.

You have just been scammed by such a project? In 2014 I was also scammed in projects and ponzi system. It is a meaningful experience for me, so that in other times when I invest I am more careful. There are still many users who are scammed by promising huge profits, new users and lazy to find information is a factor why scam systems like this still exist.

Too much of presale bonus is a red flag, offers that are too good are bad generally, this is something you need to deal with mentally, if you are too greedy you will keep falling for temptations its as simple as that, go for reasonable bonuses instead, they have better plans

It doesn't mean that the projects offers great prizes and promised you that you could earn huge profits from it, it can already be considered a legitimate project. In my own opinion, most projects who do things to attract investors or people that are too good to be true are mostly scams, that is why you should avoid this kinds of scams and click baits for you not to be harmed.

More often than not, most of the scam or fraud projects go by this trend. They offer enticing rewards and bonuses to their investors in order to lure them to the scam trap. This is why investors must be very cautious on projects that go by this trend because these bonuses are not the guarantee to the success or authenticity of the project.

There are new red flags that came from experience of ICO failure last year. :
1. high capitalization
2. excessive reward
3. some project idea, this can be out of experience
4. team members with history of scam project
5. sometimes small team members can be suspicious and too active CEO in advert.  
ICO is a no go area especially for projects with unknown institution backing

There are lots of good projects that will offer great prices but that shouldn't be the first thing to consider. Before joining any project you should check how legit the project is and whether they are saying the truth. You should get to know the team, and check out their handles on social media. If they claim not to have any social media account then there is no need going for it, because it's likely to be a scam.

A legit project has a team that is active on social media, and when you check their activities it will show you that they have been around for a long time posting and updating people about their project. If you check most scam project their team doesn't have anything to show for it, and their profiles are always created newly.

You need to ask yourselves why they need to offer such prizes to get people to invest. The classic thing to do will launch an ICO and sell the tokens in stages each time costing a little more. This creates urgency to act quickly. A project's success has nothing to do with its promises.

I agree with your comments. In the electronic market, more and more fraud, there is no guarantee of your financial. The big reward can be a good bait to lure you, and sometimes that money doesn't mean anything.

Offering big returns after the token sale is one of the marketing strategies from start-up projects to attract their investors that sometimes backfired the project owners because they could not keep thier promise. Being greedy is the main problem here because developers knew that investors are only looking for profits and do not care about the project itself that is why they keep doing this bad practices.

Generally speaking, there is no guarantee that a project will achieve something, especially when devs are giving away a lot of tokens. In the most cases, such projects are failing to achieve the cap or dying because of the price dump.

This has been going on for a long time especially with this get paid to programs. You often just earn gift cards since it is easy to send digitally. Now with the help of crypto, you can use bitcoin.
Gift cards are by no means anywhere nearly as useless as a currency that can be spent anywhere.


I don't think giving away tokens is a bad thing as long as they don't go overboard with it and ruin the currency. They can be very good for exposure. You are going to need to spend currency to get advertising anyway so why not give it directly to the supporters?

I agree with you because projects that offer great rewards do not last long. many of them only throw away when it has gained a lot of benefits and not just bitcoinnect but there are still some others. doing much analysis is far better than being tempted by their promise

Such projects really can bring large revenues, but not for long. You can’t blame them for lying, because if the project lasts a certain time (half a year - a year) you really will receive the promised profit.
As a rule, such projects are bubbles, and burst very quickly. In view of this, you must always understand the risks that you are taking, and calculate the moments when you can exit the project or not go into it at all.
For me, such projects are like a lottery; investing there a lot of money is a very risky task. Unfortunately, many people carry the last money in these projects and often fail.

Hype are just due to the assumption of the majority and won't guarantee profit because things in this industry won't go always with what is expected.  There are projects which are offering interesting deals and benefits but the outcome turned out to be the opposite of the outcome simply because of the market situation. What I am trying to point out, there are other possible factors to determine a project's outcome and not only based on what the project is offering or promising to the investors.

Neither does low allocation give any guarantee for success. Great, not so great or low price allocation to bounty campaign isn't a determinant of what such project will turn out to be.

so every bounty project must consider all its important sectors, not even a small fee will look at it. so it's better to focus on the whitepaper project first then look at the payment section provided

Cryptocurrencies can be a great opportunity for everyone, but there's still no guarantee, especially for projects that give you big prizes. The prize may not be received but the investment is not necessarily profitable. be careful.

Not only atlant but some scam bounties like athero and many more. They were using big allocation to attract the hunters and that's how they were searching for the hunterst to help them all.
Those scammers were so smart in the past because not so many bounty participants were aware about that.

We should know by now and then that crypto CEO/founder are doing their best for them to manipulate everything, they can actually make a good campaign bonus just to call the attention of bounty hunters, so we should be ready with it, we should not be too much excited for it as there is no assurance at all, the least thing we can do is to check whether they are worth to invest at.

Well, that might happen in 2017, but since 2018-2019, it has been very rare to find. I hope there are still projects like that, but right now a project that gives millions of dollars in prizes is really not guaranteed. some projects even do prize cuts at the time of distribution, other than that the price is also not guaranteed. I prefer to support concepts and prospects that are clear but have a small allocation of prizes, compared to less obvious projects with millions of dollars prizes.

I don't really believe in bonus projects so I don't dare to do it. It is really very risky and not too attractive. My friend tried it and was fooled a lot. I see you should not do these projects.

Great prizes that are mostly offered by scam projects are very common to us but newbies in the forum have very high chances to fall from this scheme. If we will be paid in a very high prize amount without much effort to do, then we should start doubting about it because it's totally a scam. Don't take too much risks if we can still be able to make it in a proper and easier way.

previously we could make it as a valuable lesson and we shouldn't fall into the same abyss, big gifts are just sweeteners so that many people are interested and after that they will disappear, but still be careful in determining the project.

Current ICO projects that provide big budgets for their bounty campaign or coin with the potential to rise in price in the short term only have the potential to scam or even plan to scam. So let's not believe in such ponzi schemes and hyip or high yield invesment programs. Because the chances are high that this is a scam and will last only a few weeks or months it will disappear like a bubble.

In the crypto sphere, any projects that offer a guaranteed income are bullshit since the market is volatile and we only have a small portion of the world's population that has interacted with crypto which means it would be hard for a new project to drive demand for their coin or token unless they have a reliable and effective marketing strategies.

These marketing strategies consist of lying and fake guarantees that they will provide huge bounty prizes to lure people to advertise their project and in the end they run away with the money and we have seen that time and again and even the shitty campaign managers supports those fake narratives in the past and that definitely had an impact on the view of all the token projects, majority wanted to make a quick profit and even though the projects are not convincing they usually invest to sell when there is a pump and that too died off as scammers took over the market. Legit projects with legit team does not want any promotion, they will get seed funds.

Well, market is all about taking the risk in order to obtain profit but before take the risk make sure that we've made some technical analysis first just to lessen it. In this type of industry you shouldn't expect of getting a profit, back in the the day where ICOs are hypes, some of the projects I've used to participate aren't that good, yeah they offer a great prizes but as the campaign is finished I have encountered some issue.

Why do you like with exchange give big prize and ICO investing offer more than 50% bonus for buying on ICO sale time, did you think at the future how price of coin is it, will be higher or lower price. I think better buy reality with coin depend bonus not higher because can be lower price later after coin listing on market.

We all can't escape learning the hard way in crypto space, i was a victim of few scam projects, they made huge promises and promise to reward huge rewards but all failed but i have learn,many will still fall for this until they become smart by learning from their mistakes

i agree learning from a mistake is almost natural in crypto space
until now there is still a lot of scam project but as long you don't invest its not bad to try
because if you failed you will learn and get more experience in crypto

Big prizes and so on do influence the psychology of investors, but in the end investors also give up because the hope for ROI is not even visible, the supply must also be balanced with demand. I prefer the type of marketing that prioritizes supporting partners first, and the project development ratio does not shift too far from the original plan.

it is common in this crypto room, that a project that offers a large prize is only a form of their marketing strategy. you can see that in every ico project that appear, Most of them offer large prizes as bait to attract market investment. from there you can redefine before investing in any project.

That is true. Almost always better when project givest not a huge, but real reward. Such like Harmony One - they giveaway only 15K USD.

In my opinion in any whitepaper it is specified.Nobody gives guarantees anywhere.There is no guarantee that someone will not die tomorrow.It's the same with tokens and projects.

I agree. Usually, in the main conditions is prescribed that no one gives any guarantees and doesn't bear any responsibility.
And in general, it seems to me that people are now becoming more cautious and no longer believe when they are promised crazy money.

In crypto, I have not seen crazy money and profits for a long time,but still IEO on binance and kucoin helped me make good money.Although it’s not a big amount, it’s still profitable. I think the ICO has outlived itself. Buying tokens for ICO investors really have no guarantees. And this is bad.

You are right in implying that these types of projects that offer an unrealistic ROI or that fall under the HYIP classification in the cryptocurrency world are generally illegitimate and a lot of them have turned out to be outright scams so make sure you steer clear of these products

Of course, it’s impossible to unequivocally say that ICO teams that will offer and offer large amounts of rewards for participating in ICO bounty campaigns are fraudulent, but this happens very often. In addition, even if such ICO teams intend to work on their project after the ICO, then anyway, as a rule, they do not fulfill the promise. In all other respects, it is a matter of chance.

I frequently face that issue, numerous projects  currently give members incredible high prizes and rewards,however I question that. from one viewpoint the market is in a debilitated circumstance and this can impact new crypto clients particularly apprentices. they will consider how to get speedy benefits by putting resources into ventures that offer enormous prizes. however, I don't prescribe that choice.

By now i'm sure that many members on here have learn a lot when it comes to too good to be real offers mostly from new bounty projects looking to prey on new crypto investors, when an offer is too good they it's nothing but a bad egg

A big prize is not a guarantee and even what happened until now, a good project only gives rewards at a low rate, so when there is a project that offers a large reward then in the end they will only get negative feedback from observers here, but all have reasonable reasons and we should be more careful. Indeed, when someone offers a big reward it will make many people greedy without worrying about the results in the future, because when greed happens in the end it will only make us regret having sacrificed time and even the money invested is useless.

So obviously their primary targets are the ones who are new to this kind of thing, they know newbies will have more chance of biting their scam projects than someone who are here in crypto and has been into projects for quite some time because they knew that those people will most likely not fall for their traps, always remember that you need to work for every coin that you will get in projects and if you encounter projects that offers you reward that is greater than the work and effort that you will give think about it maybe its a scam.

Most of the time Newcomers are tempted.
If they see more profits they do not judge anything and then jump, then return home with empty handed.
If we analyze the minimum judgment before investing somewhere, then the risk of danger will be reduced.

The issue is that regardless of the amount you educate them, if and only if their mindsets are just concentrating on the potential advantages, at that point they won't listen. Novices are giving people an opportunity to exploit the situation since they just keep risking their own money without even thinking that it can make an enormous negative impact on their funds and assets. They don't understand that it's the trickster's approach to beguile them, it's the specific reason behind why we should be cautious of such situations because it will direct us on finding a project that is worth it and beneficial. We can't simply rely on their promises since we don't have the foggiest idea about their genuine intention. You may find researching as difficult and laborious however your time and exertion will be commendable because you will easily understand the things that you have to consider before investing on some projects.

I frequently face that issue, numerous projects  currently give members incredible high prizes and rewards,however I question that. from one viewpoint the market is in a debilitated circumstance and this can impact new crypto clients particularly apprentices. they will consider how to get speedy benefits by putting resources into ventures that offer enormous prizes. however, I don't prescribe that choice. By now i'm sure that many members on here have learn a lot when it comes to too good to be real offers mostly from new bounty projects looking to prey on new crypto investors, when an offer is too good they it's nothing but a bad egg

Ponzi and pyramid schemes have existed for many centuries and even now people fall prey to such scams. In cryptocurrency, the impact is much more amplified because of the decentralized nature of the market and due to the lack of regulations. Most of the time, the new and inexperienced users don't have any idea about the risk associated with the project in which they are investing in.

There are promises a project will give and one can tag then scam right away, just like you pointed out, a project saying their coin will worth very high within a very short time is only but trying to lure people in, because everyone knows that new projects first struggles in the initial stage and with constant improvement and depending on the team can achieve their goals but when a new projects starts making unnecessary promise it's good to look twice. Also, any project offering a certain assurance of your investment growing massively within the short period just like the cases of Ponzi should be ignored because it is not far from Ponzi as well.

Well, that was true. No project can certainly guarantee you a promise of income to be predicted even before the project has been launched or even while the project promotion is still running. As projects are running on the present time, the assurance of earning or having a profit will vary over time depending on the performance or the way everything is running because the success of the project will be dependent on what is currently happening on the entire span of promotion. No project can predict that after project they guarantee you a big promise of profit because everything is just about to happen so if you do not want to get disappointed, then better know that such sayings are just merely part of their promotion strategy so don't get attached to much with it for you not to fail with your expectations.

Extended ICOs and the delayed bounty distributions serve for the one purpose. The more time they took from the investors, the bounty participants they will be able to solve the upcoming problems, handling the chain reaction problems is not easy. The bounty hunting shouldn't only be about the benefits of free promotion, the both parties have to look at the background image for getting an idea of what's going on.
