This thread is for motivation purposes for them who are afraid about bounties and who are being hopeless.

Lots of people kept saying bounty has no future, all bounties are scams, bounty rewards are tiny and so much negative talks. They said the truth but they ignored the positive side of the present bounty!

You can't expect a good amount of rewards from a very bounty campaign like 2017! Do 20-30 bounties, you will get good rewards from 5-6 projects and other rewards will be average and some won't pay you! But in these 5-6 good rewards will cover your all expectations. Remember the MB8 Coin reward, Mitx Reward or even the very recent Tokoin Ambassador rewards! All were very high and that money was enough to spend the next 2-3 years easily.
I bought a Yamaha FZS V3 bike which cost almost 3500 USD in our country. All money came from the bounty. You know what, I bought the bike in May! And later we got campaigns like Tokoin, Sero and some others.

Now, tell me, you want to quit bounty? For what? Have you any better option to make money in crypto or online?

If actually you bought a bike worth 3500$ with your bounty rewards, then it's really encouraging. But saying rewards gotten from MITX, Tokoin and the likes can sustain you for 2 to 3 years sounds more like a hyperbole. I do think sometimes very good reward gotten from bounty is all about grace and not how well you did your research, even  though it's very essential to do proper due diligence before embarking on any bounty task.  My reason is because some bounties we expect much from end up being crappie. Well thanks very much for your encouragement, It gives hope especially to those who are on the verge of giving up already. 

It's encouraging to see posts like this, but you have to admit that projects that gives the kind of rewards that you mention are few and far between, I personally didn't join any of those bounties because I seem to be busy with something offline at those moments, as for MITX, I just didn't have the interest to join and though I ended up regretting that decision.

This is awesome mate, hard work pays well. I stopped doing crypto things, and after a long gap, I am back in crypto and doing signature and managing social accounts to do typical bounties. I believe if I work hard, I will earn rewards like you! My friends did the Mb8Coin, I never thought it is possible to earn such huge money from bounties. Congrats on your new bike, ride safe!

This can be a good motivation to complaining society. But do you think motivation is enough? Because a person who is uninformed and inexperienced can only find good bounty with luck.

IMO, if you think you are successful in this regard, share your bounties with other friends from now on. Thus they can find what they want, just like you. So you can help most friends by solving this problem.

I think your information is not the total picture, if you have reward of $3500 from bounty, then tell us the type of bounties you get that kind of money from. Is it signature, social, telegram, or translation. We all know that not everyone can be a translator and even the content bounty. A more information on this would be great

Social hunters never quit bounty campaign if they found this thread. This is your results that you did good work in bounty research. Share your options about campaign for new hunters. But I think the best rewards was "Thinkcoin" campaign this year for signature campaign, almost 20K USD.

Why I didn´t participate in these projects: MB8 Coin reward, Mitx what have you mentioned? I know the answer because when you look at MB8Coin website, it looks very unprofessional, so how they can be so successful? And MITX was only airdrop if I remember it correctly..  ::)

Do you have any reward from signature? Because in last 1.5 years I can't earn single rewards. MB8COIN paid huge rewards to hunters in this year, but they didn't have signature campaign even didn't have in Coinhe campaign. Coinhe also paid huge rewards to social hunters. But congratulations for your success history.

How many hours have you spent each day for these bounties?
Total earnings /divide/ hours spent = probably a "normal" job will pay more ....

Very happy to hear that you made decent earnings.If you think that you have the ability to catch/find good and promising bounties, I suggest that you make your website/group where you share your findings,this will bring you even more earnings in case the bounties are successful! Finding good projects nowadays is hard especially for newcomers,the community definetely needs people like you.

Thank you for the words of encouragement. This kind of motivational speech is particularly the reason why a lot of noobs who are adamant to learning flood bounty and crypto in search of their own money for Yahama. While I am not condemning the post, I am also suggesting we do more of crypto education than show boating

wow you did 20-30 bounties in this year? for me i can't do that like you because i'm busy with my RL
but how do you manage to do that bounties and what the criteria for you to join a bounty?

Usually 1 bounty campaign especially signature which have higher reward beside translator need more than 1 month to do. Maybe what can we do with 20-30 bounties is translation campaign which have a lot of participants already, or maybe video, blog social media which i think the rewards will be a little (Correct me if i am wrong) but that is what i see on bitcointalk. Don't know if there are other else bounty that can give big rewards. By the way congratulation for your earning in this year.

I can say that 2019 was also a good year for me as regards the amount I made from bounties. But we can't take away the fact that bounties are not as lucrative as it was in the past and not everyone is opportune to join the best paying bounties. As a bounty hunter, one needs to strive to join many more bounties so as to benefit from the best paying ones.

Actually, bounty job is not easy anymore like before. People earned thousands of dollars only by making some tweets in 2017. I know some people who made over 12K USD from the Datum bounty only doing the facebook and tweeter campaigns!
At this current time, if you make good rewards from bounties, you can't do only signature or social, you need to do social, Reddit, content too. Whoever did these in Tokoin bounty earned thousands of dollars. Yes, some project held bounties outside of Bitcointalk like Mitx, a reward of a lifetime! Blockburn, Tokoin ambassador program and many were held in medium or a private group mate. Only the signature is not a solution anymore to earn good money.

I agree with you, but you have to notice that the whole crypto world is not lucrative like before, right? Then why people want a lucrative situation in bounties? Still, some great projects are paying huge money to its supporters. One thing is, seasonal bounty hunters won't make good money anymore! Only a dedicated and regular bounty hunter will make it happen.

My father and mother both are doing high-class jobs in our country, I earned better money by spending time on bounties. I did not spend much time, my foreign friends did, as they earned almost double money than me from these typical bounties. Therefore I am a student, I have to read hard to pass in exams, so, I did not take bounties as a hard job, I like freedom. I hope you get my pint. Good bounties are still there, you have to research hard to find it, many people thought Zeux and Mitx bounties are fake, or scam, I did not. So, they clicked for me.

last 2017 bull run i bought a suzuki raider 150fi that cost 2200$ and later 2018 i sold it  for around 1500$ because of emergency cause i havent earned from bounty since 2018 up to now i have no option but to sell my bike.

That was the best bounty in 2017 at that time when I joined the Utrust bounty campaign when I participated in my blog at $ 1500. This was the biggest reward in my opinion, as long as I joined the bounty in 2017 I got my dream home even though it was not that much It is important to succeed and it is all from the bounty, so from now on I still continue to join the bounty.

Doing 20 - 30 bounties is actually insane, well I must say that you're lucky to find those bounty however this is like committing yourself to it and it's very much less chance to find those good ones.

I couldn't imagine how many hours and months you work for that bounties, though yeah you have rewarded even a least. Good for you.

I wonder how much time you have spent to get that much money then can buy an expensive Yamaha bike. if counted from the 20 bounties that you follow and you must spend 24 hours x 12 months in front of the computer. wow you are amazing, you take all kinds of bounties from bounty signatures, translators, media, social media, articles, youtube. Whereas this year the bounty is not very favorable, but you can break the "impossibility" of all those who doubt. I really salute you.

very happy to hear your story, for this year I don't seem to get too much fro bounty, but there is still income from here, though not as much as the bull run 2017/2018, and I think the key to getting what the op can do is to follow a good project who held bounty and do all task they offer, I think a good reward will come to us.

Actually this is not a motivation for me, but I envy you can find a good bounty project in the current market conditions.
Of the many bounties that I joined this year, maybe only about $ 300 that I got.

You are right that many have received bounties from MB8 and Tokoin has gotten a lot, unfortunately I missed that precious moment, because I was desperate with the bounty at that time, all the bounties that I participated in did not pay all, there were those who paid but the results were very little . But now, maybe about 2 months ago I started to get excited again and work at the bounty, hopefully this time I will be lucky.

This is nice to hear. This will show to many bounty hunters that there is always the better side of things. Long have we heard and read of stories about failed bounty campaigns. There are so many kinds of them. Other bounties are not successful and not paying, others are not paying at all even if they are not really a failure, others are also paying but the value is very small, and so many other kinds of failures. This one is a success story. But this requires full time if I am not mistaken because you need to do a lot of jobs in participating in many campaigns.

I actually thought that bounty hunting in 2019 does not pay off your effort, I personally made good reward in 2017 and 2018 and quit in 2019.
However, with your statement, I feel like I will start my eagerness to gamble on bounty again, you are right with your analysis, we might failed in scam bounty but we can still choose few which could give a great reward.

impressive indeed  . you did the  bounty with that account or you have other account with higher rank ?

 because that seems unbelievable if you do it what that current account you have because the payrate for lower rank accounts are only less and not to mention the amount of scams you will be getting . i heard about mb8coin before and i knew that it would be succesful because it was managed by good managers that time , not just bounty but they do also have a sig campaign and other promotions  .

The title itself really encouraging to go back with the old ways, it seems that because of those many scammed projects bounty huntings was been forgotten. If there's real project around it will be tough to catch up but the possibilities are still there. Just need to add a lots of patience while doing your hunting. There's always a way to those who are aiming and have a good will to keep moving on and find their success journey.

Bounty hunting in my opinion is based on luck and chance. One cannot be certain of which projects reward would pay off. We all know that most new project find it very difficult in their initial year and that explains why carrying out bounty for new projects could be less rewarding, if the project is faced with the challenge of startups.

All the bounties that are mentioned OP I did not follow and honestly when I read about the story that there are bounties that produce sometimes make me regret.
Finding a legit bounty is not easy at the moment, and if I'm not mistaken some bounties mentioned like MB8Coin not in 2019 but in 2018 and the rewards distribution is in 2019.
A little curious whether the money to buy the stuff is purely the result of a bounty that was obtained only in 2019 or accumulated from the previous year?
And what kind of bounties does the OP follow? because the type of bounty that is followed will also affect the amount obtained from one type of bounty project.

good motivation, but the op needs to explain the campaign which also failed after joining for more than 4 months and waiting for the distribution which is always delayed so that the story becomes balanced.

comparison of 5-6 successful projects of 20-30 bounty? You are extraordinary. of course your concentration is very large.

I highlight 2019 in general, this year there are also many successful bounties, but on average only give less than $20 after a long process, and the rest are just dead coins whose owners don't even know how to develop.

This is definitely true. I was able to earn a good amount of bounty reward earlier this year. That only proves that there are still potential and trusted bounty campaigns that are existing. We only have to search for the best and legit ones. We might encounter scam bounties but we should take the risk and try to find a promising bounty.

The problem with bounties is not that you make money, the problem is that there are a lot of people behind you who are losing money, people who are putting their life savings, their wages, etc.

And you may think that's not your problem, that it's their fault but by promoting these unregistered securities you can be punished legally.

maybe they are also participanting in blogging , transaltion and social media campaign, even the payment for that rank is too low. But if you participated in many campaign that it will not required ranks it will also give you good amount of bounty, however i dont think there still a good campaign right now.

There is other bounty type that doesn't required high rank account just to have huge bounty. One of it is translation campaign and the others are social media campaign and content creation. Only signature campaign requires high rank to get high pay rate but that's campaign has the majority percentage for the bounty pool so I believe its possible for him to really buy that expensive bike using only that account if he is really a hardworking guy.

I don't think bounty hunter will surrender to leave bounty campaign although the ICO/IEO has no longer as a place to gain money. Some of them even all of them will keep seeing the good bounty campaign to promote the project on their signature. Because I'm thinking, crypto prices are so volatile and there is one who will knows the next price that will be achieved.

So, they will keep take a part to the campaign and find a good bounty. They will stay have to hold the token and even for them for several times so when the market has going good again they will open the wallet sell the token to the exchange. This is an advantage for crypto users, as long as there is an internet network they will still have a high convince on it.

That's correct especially at this time where crowdsale is not as profitable as before way beak in 2017.
People would say that it's a waste of time, I believe it because I experience wasting time because of bounty, but OP was here to prove that he can make something out of nothing, lol... is that right?

Anyway, OP is not just lucky, he is wise enough and he spend time to look for good bounty, and now he enjoys his reward.

OP, your rank still member, how could you earned so huge amount from bounty? Even if you have joined in 20-30 bounties, there is no way you can earn that amount especialy in 2019. You must be only joined in social media campaign which only earn less than other bounties.

we have different stories last bull run and all of them are success stories, i wont give up in bounty hunting cause i really love boubty hunting especially when bulls are domibtaing the market.

Why not consider on he's having multiple accounts? lol. If we do think thoroughly then we can really say that his current rank wont really be possible for him to earn that big unless if he do multi-accounting.
Wait. If hes involved into whitepaper/ANN translations in multiple projects then he might able to get these amounts.Its not being mentioned on what kind of task he'd been doing.
On my own experience on bounty hunting back in the past, i do only earn some considerable amounts which is enough to buy some gadgets.

Yea, i also have thought on that (multiple accounts), but i can't really say that since i've no proof if OP has multiple accounts (well, maybe he has but not caught yet, dunno). If you are saying he did translation bounty, i didn't seen any of history if his work before too

Participation in bounty activities can only be reported with a trial attitude, because paying does not necessarily mean that you will receive a reward. I think that you can only use your spare time to participate in bounty activities, so that you will not delay normal work, and even if you do not get a return, there is no loss. :)

To be honest, anyone can say he bought this and that but it will still be a claim unless he show some proof nor transaction of his withdrawals. It might sound ridiculous but OP's claim is the same as well considering he's referring the bounty earning from late 2018 to 2019.

Well, some choose to do it full time that's why they've got too disappointed.

Don't take this personally the guy may be actually right, because in some country having ordinary 500$ in your account can sustain you for very long time, those countries that tax payment isn't really that tasking

Avoid judging crypto projects based on their website appearance, you can easily get mislead doing that, i did same mistake when i saw Sero bounty project and the website is mostly in just white and black color which pissed me off and today its one of the most profitable, they get listed on gate.io exchange

To earn that much in bounties nowadays seem impossible but bounty project like tokoin makes me think twice, tokoin telegram participants earned 100$ so just imagine if one did all available tasks like social media and content too that 3.5k will be possible

That's the bounty now and it's hard to figure out which one earns more and the more that participate in Telegram and social media, the rewards aren't that great.
I know Tokoin is a great and successful project but what is regrettable of Tokoin for the bounties is that the distribution lasted 4 months so this is very long too.

We cant conclude though but we can presume because earning that big on that particular rank wont really be that possible if you arent dealing with big task like translations/adviser/presentation
but as you said and checked he havent engaged into those things so this will put up some question on mind but well theres no point on how he do it which the important thing here is that
he do able to buy up his own bike with bounty hunting and just like with other bounty hunters as well they do able to purchase up things that they havent buy before.

That's a commendable achievement you've got. Despite of how low the chances of getting into a paying bounty, you still remain positive and got enough profit from it and you even able to buy an expensive bike.

I admire the money management skill you have. Because for someone who's into bounty and probably dependent on it, you've got to spend it somewhere else unless you're not a family man and you're just surviving on your own and you don't have children to feed.

First think her great hard working movement 2nd absolutely he/she work in social media like Twitter, Facebook, telegram also. Actually we know 2019 we just received some good bounty even i was gap some month for missing good bounty.
I was participating bounty social media like harmony, tokoin, then i left infact i want start again for this year 2020.

OP was one from less people who able to get decent earning from bounty but unfortunately not all people have same results such as you because every people have their own methods to get money from bounty and those who want to leaving bounty because not profitable anymore because they tired the methods which they used not can get good earning from the bounty which they following but maybe OP stories can be motivate those who had failed to seeking good projects

Within 5 months and you make $ 3500 from 3 bounty campaigns then I think you are telling the lie. Or you are an account farmer and cheating bounty with a large number of accounts, in 2019 there are still successful bounty but not too much and the budget of bounty is also very low. So if you claim to only join with one account, it is really difficult to happen

congratulations to you!!  in 2019 I only made no more than $ 2k from all the bounties I participated in..  currently finding and following in a bounty project that pays is a luck.  even so, I will not stop being a bounty hunter because the bounty program is still profitable (although not like 2017-2018 ago).

It's definitely hard to find those bounty campaign that can give a huge rewards after the campaign. Most of us here feels so frustrated finding a legit bounty campaign in which you need a lot of time to search for it and learn their advocacy and platforms that can be demand in the crypto currency community.
