Bitcoin Forum

I'm learning a lot here about how people here invest and that tells me a bit about the market in general.

I was wondering if Airdrops and Bounties worth the effort.
According to this article you need several wallets.
https://blogs.airdropalert.com/9-wallets-airdrops-bounties/
Then you have to find out about the drops, do somethings to get them (e.g. follow the coin on social media).  And there might be other steps I don't know about.

Coinbase is running a Dodgecoin sweepstakes.  You have to buy or sell $100. of Dodgecoin to enter.  That is sasy.

I'm not sure if Airdrops and Bounties are worth the work.

Of course, FREE is always worth it as long as the reward is guaranteed to be received. The current problem on both Airdrop and Bounty was the project behind it always runaway and didn't pay all the participants. Only few out of  many existing program is legit that's why many participants effort become wasted. But if you participate on right campaigns by doing DYOR, You can definitely have a good profit out of it.

you can see the project I just worked on, apeswap. The bounty project provides a worthy payment in my opinion. most people supported some pretty big projects this year, you can also look for that in the bounty thread. I think the bounty is still very appropriate for now.

It depends on the market condition. There are more hunters that gets lucky during a bullrun than during a bear market. Bounty/Airdrop tokens tends to pump early giving hunters the opportunity to sell them for ETH, BNB, TRX, or whatever blockchain the project was launched.

Agree, also some of projects are worth to be hold long and just wait for the pump happens. If its not worth now, it may in the future, right?

Yes, why not?

It all depends on the market and the worthiness of the project. Lot many users of our forum have turned millionaire through bounties. What they did is, made use of the bounties received at the right time. With bounties we should not expect immediate money or big money within a short. What we collect as bounties need to be kept aside as a long term investment. This way one can make assured profit out of airdrops and bounties.

What's your timeframe for long? Months which is within a bullrun or is it in a year or more? I've been there and done that and I can tell you now that the bear market is brutal. There are about 1 out of 100 new projects that survives past a bullrun. They either die from depleted funds or just completely abandoned months after launch.

Airdrops and bounties are great if you are only a beginner, this is just an opportunity to earn even a small amount of money to start for investing or trading, all free is worth it especially if you are guaranteed of receiving it. There are some airdrops that are good one of the highest airdrop I received is worth $100 from Yobit, which I used for investment.

Bounties are not only for beginner bro, i mean we are do some task and earn a worth reward for do it, just be picky when you do kind of bounties.

why not, airdrops and bounties are still worth to work
but you must remember not to depend on your daily costs on bounties and airdrops

I have a real job and still have time to do the bounty
this year many bounties I saw paid well to the hunters

It's true that the probability of getting higher gains in both airdrops and bounties have been reduced drastically, compared to what we have seen few years back, still you may find enough number of gems, if you frequently do both. There's no risk involved and nothing to lose. Just spend a little bit of your free time, once a day, so that you will get a chance to earn some free money.

Airdrops launched by custom exchanges are competition airdrops. However this is very difficult to win, because the trading volume of investors is bigger than ours. And these kind of airdrops are real, and they will pay for it. However, if it is released based on a website or telegram bot, it will most likely not get paid.

I think you misunderstood him, he want to said if you only a beginner, airdrop and bounties are great, its not hard to do and didnt required high skill to earn from it.

I think it comes back to you, because for me while it's free, why not?
it's just that you have to be patient, don't expect too much from the Airdrop, it's just a sideline to fill your spare time, because sometimes it's the little things that surprise us. not a few airdrops that provide benefits, and also many airdrop scams. So, I emphasize again, as long as it doesn't cost a penny, there's nothing wrong with doing it.

If you have a long free time then of course you can pursue bounties and airdrops which you think are better because this is only some additional money that is not certain, the article is that there are still many bounty rewards that are held for so long and this is indeed boring if you expect additional money of bounties and airdrops.

Better to trade and invest it's much better to test your skills, you can get your daily profit if you do well and this can be done simply, and only a little analysis to monitor it

But remember, don't make the bounty your main income, it will be more difficult for you in the future.

Airdrops and Bounties are still worth the work. but to get good results it depends on the success of the project, don't expect too much from airdrops and bounties. if you are interested in crypto you can try trade

In the article I quoted in the first post it said you might need up to 9 wallets.  Is this true?

Or is there one wallet that can handle them all.

Any recommendation?

Thanks

both are important, because the most valuable points are not from the prizes you get. but at least you know more about what an airdrop is, and how a bounty is. so you can distinguish the benefits of the two. as for if it is not necessary to do it please trade and prepare capital for it all.

as long as it's still free or doesn't cost money, it's still worth doing even though sometimes we get results that aren't worth it and we need to remember that bounties and airdrops are just a sideline or just to fill our busy time when we relax

I would recommend working on a Bounty rather than working on an Airdrop. Although many of the bounties do not provide value, there are some that are good, and earn money from your work. However, airdrops rarely get paid.

There are a lot of Airdrops in cryptocurrencies and you might probably still see some that work the time and worth checking out, probably in the past months there was a huge number of this airdrop.

Mostly there were just some new projects that want their project to be a big trend and to do that they do a big airdrop to gain a lot of users and recognition in the cryptocurrency community so fair it kinda works since some of the top cryptocurrency today started with an airdrop I believe. These days I don't hear a lot of Airdrops but for sure there are still some, probably there are so many altcoins in the market so it's kinda hard to compete these days.

There are still a few about also that is still worth a try however I don't think it is still worth it since the chances are just so slim to get a good project and most of it, in my opinion, is not worth it anymore.

I went to Airdrop Alert and started looking at all on offer.

It is too much work for me.  Too many different accounts you need to open and join.  You have to have the right wallet and much more.

Currently there are many types of coins with different chains, and there are many tokens built on top of each network. that is why in the article it is mentioned you must have multiple wallets
You can install multiwallet applications such as mathwallet, trustwallet, imtoken, etc. with one application you can manage many addresses with different chains.

I really like the way you learn, starting with reading, then asking questions you don't understand. Becoming a bounty hunter even though it looks free and the risk is small, it takes perseverance, patience, and thoroughness, because we dedicate time and energy to support the project. There are risks that we must be prepared to accept, such as cut allocations, delayed payments, and even scams.

Yeah i know, so i mention "some of projects" not all of them are worth to be hold long. I mention airdrop like TWT, its priceless when the airdrop happens, and its still really good money if you sell even today at downtrend.

I have worked last year in airdrops . I earn some good money. Bounty and airdrops should be a secondary job not primary because it can be late payments or may be scam, reduce prize money by projects. In todays world everybody want quick money that's why bounties are not supportable for everyone. It needs daily work, patience, Your social media should have some followers. If anybody can handle above mentioned criteria then you can earn from airdrops and bounties. Thank you
 

It's still worth working on - Until now there have always been some campaigns that pay, although there are also a lot of scams, but this is a risk of airdrop and bounty, we can only run it. That decision can be money or not we don't know. We can do research, but still can not escape from fraud, as hunters we also can not protect so it is easy to get tricked.

what do you expect from it. if you hope to earn a lot of money and become rich, airdrops and bounties are not worth the effort you put in. but if it's just a sideline, it's still worth working on. you can be the one who supports a project by being part of the holder even though the token is obtained from the airdrop.

Participating on a bounty campaign is worth it many thanks to the projects and diligent bounty managers. It has greatly helped me and my family financially compared with the airdrops which is rarely making money out of it that is why i never take seriously this kind of campaign.

Airdrops are free incentive for some sign up and users. So I dont think and that can be considered as work right? Its just a promotional task that is so easy to do. Now to answer if its worth or not, well I guess thats depend om the project right? Sometime these airdrops are worth a lot and could be a fortune. But not all turns out to be like that.

You should try, if asked if it is worth it or not. I guess it's worth trying, because from my experience following the bounty I have a hefty income, and not a few of my friends are successful from joining bounty. All it takes is a wallet and a social media account. you also have to be patient when facing projects that don't pay, because that's already a risk, as hunters we don't have protective bodies.

There is now a lot type of airdrops. And a lot of people also misunderstood what really airdrop is or bounties.
Airdrops that required to fill in some personal information and do some minor task? I don't think it's airdrop.
Since airdrop for me if they will send you their tokens in your address, like if you already doing such transactions on a particular network, like Ethereum or Solana ecosystem, etc.

And speaking of bounty campaigns, there are a lot of bounties now compare before 2017. So expect that most the bounty campaigns now are trash, but some bounty campaigns are still good, especially paying some token that already in the market.

I only do bounty that inspires confidence. Received payment and quite decent. I stopped doing airdrops. None came to my wallet this year.

You need those wallets if you're needing to get the airdrops from those coins you mentioned. I don't think such airdrops are happening in those coins anyway.
In any case, I wouldn't just jump into airdrops if I were you. Bounties are fine, but airdrops are kind of sus for me these days already. One attempted to phish me when I received one email back then.

This is easy way to earn money by to do simple task, and for people who do not job and have alot of free times, this job is recommended to do. In 2017, I earned alot of reward from bounty campaign, but after the market changing to bearish, its more difficult to earn reward from it. But currently market on bullish trend, so alot of new project launching and looking for investor and they will need bounty hunter to promote their project.

I prefers to participate in bounties to airdrops because of  chances of earning reasonable amount of tokens is bright unlike airdrops  though is free but in most cases their tokens are worthless without any value. Although bounties are prone to scams however if a hunter does a thorough research before participating in any bounty, there is the tendency of earning bountiful rewards,  last year I participated in YOUC bounty in one week I earned big reward.

for risk, of course, bounty and airdrop campaigns both have it. but for the project in question is it worth it for him to follow or not? To be honest, analyzing the project is very difficult. watch out for people who take advantage of airdrops and bounty hunters for their own benefit. Pay attention to projects and teams and their documents. that's very important.

Working for crypto has been a big blessing for me and for those who shared with me the passion to do bounties and participate in contests. Of course you might think that the airdrops and the bounties are a waste of time but it is not. You dedicate your internet and family time, electricity, and computing resources to participate in bounties so in a sense I won't call this a free money or earning crypto for free. Still, if you are new to crypto, do bounties. It is definitely worth it.

I have not participated in airdrops for a long time. This is most likely a waste of time. But in bounty campaigns and especially in subscription campaigns, I still participate. Of course, we are still often cheated with payments, but sometimes the new tokens received can be sold quite well. To a large extent, our participation depends on our free time, habits and need for communication in this forum.
Therefore, while there is a possibility and probability of earning new tokens, I intend to use this opportunity.

Are you sure you are telling the truth? You havent participated in any bounty during last 9 months. All you do is posting minimum required posts to meet weekly task and that is it.
Bounty hunter can do dozen of research and still be cheated with project. Recent examples are Student Coin or Amepay campaign. Bounties today are all about being lucky to join a bounty, which will be lucky if someone decides to pump its altcoin.

It's tough to say which one will be the legit project or airdrop. Many legit project didn't pay their hunters and we don't have in our hand to do so against them. But some of them pay the hunters with handsome amount which is also true. That's why, we can say it varies and depends on projects if they pay then obviously it is worth to work.

Had this question been in the past, my asnwers would have been a lot different from today. Because if you ask me, despite of the fact that most of the airdrops are free the amount of rewards are already very small and would somehow be just a huge waste of time specially with the fact that mkst of the airdrops nowadays are scams. If I were to put some effort, I would rather go and join other bounties instead which has better compensation for your efforts. I suggest that you also do the same.

Very disappointed for sure if we have done our duty in the project but in fact it is not paid,
and I think that's the risk that being a bounty hunter is not easy, of course if you experience this,
but indeed we need to find a clear project and that takes effort

research still needed altough we didnt spend our money for this effort. some people didnt aware with their reward and prefer let it go and move on to another project, there are alot effort that we spend during campaign periode and its be our right to received the reward. if we dont receive this, maybe labelling scam and spread around the crypto market

Airdrops and Bounties this is certainly good, but at the present time it is not enough also need to participate in testnets to increase the receipt of altcoins without investment.

It all depends on which bounty you are working on and what the project has in the vision for the future. If you are working for a project that has a good vision and decent team then there's no reason the project should fold and burn out. I have seen some bounty do really well and the coins were worth more than what they expected.

That said, there are scam projects all over as we all know and on top of the scams, there are various tweaks in the smart contracts through which project owners can reverse transactions and take back the coins held under escrow.

Be very aware of the project and if you end up working for a good one, it is absolutely worth it!

You can see one such case here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5338454.0

Don't mistake me but this is the mentality that has allowed campaigns to ruin bounty hunters. If you are working for someone then you must get paid, regardless of whether you spend any money or not because you spent time and efforts on the project and it must be paid.

That's what I also feel until the bounty hunters start respecting their work and feel pride in what they do. As long as bounty hunters are going to work without thinking about being paid, the situation won't improve anytime soon.

If you spend time and effort into something make sure they know and pay for it. This is one thing bounty hunters have to realize.

Well obviously, it is. Anything that produces money with minimal investments(labor) is worth all the effort! Specially in this industry. Just think about it, who would give out money that has the same value and potential to grow on your country for minimal efforts or simple tasks? Specially when you lack the requirements or the college degree?  None right? Hence, I conclude that doing simple tasks in exchange for bounty and airdrop rewards is truly worth the effort. You just have to be wise enough to differentiate bounties and airdrips that are worthy enough to spend your time and efforts with to the ones that are not.

It is worth it when the project is with a verified team, with good partners and a community that supports the project.
I have had good and bad projects, sometimes I receive nothing, sometimes I even earn a trip.
You just have to be careful which bounty or airdrop to work on.

I dont get it how participate in testnets will increase the amount of altcoin w/o investment? AFAIK Testnet is just an experimental network to try anything without needed to pay the gas.
To get more amount of reward i think the only way is to complete as much task available to airdrop or bounty.

Many have already made money through Bounty. Therefore the bounty is worth working on. Although not all bounty projects make money. But we should not make it our main job, because the income in the bounty is not necessarily sufficient for daily life.

They are sure to be worth participating if they already have a good value on the time on or before the distribution of the airdrops. Good thing, sometimes, what you are not expecting to have a good value are becoming bullish overtime. It is quite rare tho.

It would only be worth it if the project succeed and it would pay the participants on time and what they had promised.
It is hard to find those kind of project now and it is hard to tell which one would really succeed and would keep their plans on track.

They're worth the work if the airdrop or bounty you've received have entered in the market and took the attention of everyone. I've witnessed airdrops that have became worth of hundreds of dollars to a thousand worth of money that they've given freely.

It's just a random happening when you receive such because it doesn't happen most of the time. So if you've got into a bounty and you've received a token from a good project and the same as the airdrop then you can prove that it's worth but most of the time they don't and you waste your time.

I think the best times for real rewarding airdrops and bounties are a long time ago, but there can be some interesting airdops where you could earn a nice of amount of money with minimal effort (e.g. UNI airdrop and FORTH airdrop).

I do agree that there are airdrops that can increase in valuation but the problem is that you need to have the patience as it is difficult to identify which project will be successful and which ones are wasting your time. I used to participate in the past but now a days i usually avoid everything unless i see some potential chances.

I only participated in a few bounties in the past few years and i am not happy with the result either as some projects not even gave the coins and hence i usually ignore them as it is a headache.

There's actually no way to determine them once you're done with your research. It's hard to tell which is going to have that boom price because the majority of them are just following the same strategy and scheme after its listed on an exchange, that's when they're going to have the valuation.

Still, DYOR will guide you but even if you do so, many are not really that going to be worthy.

If you are not sure, kindly don't join airdrops or bounties. It is not a must for you, it is just optional.
I am joining bounties but rarely participate in airdrops. I can tell you that they are still worth it although cannot give a big amount of money. But it is good enough for me, at least I can earn some dollars. As doing bounty and airdrop tasks are quite easy, it is still worth it to do. Except if the tasks are difficult, then kindly ignore them.

There are still several airdrops and bounties that is worth the work but you must really need to do a further and deep researching in order to fall in the right airdrops and bounties.

airdrop in solana platform now be trend in airdrop project. i see several project success there and many people got worthed reward . maybe in near future we will find another huge airdrop from other platform , and its only about time. if we look at market cycel history , this event always happen regularly.

You can't compare airdrops with bounties because airdrops brings very low rewards since the work is retweet and few posts which ends in minutes but bounties are difficult tasks and it takes months to get it done, only very few airdrops ends up worthing the my time for example uniswap and origin protocol

There's still a chance with bounties but I don't know about airdrops.
I stopped doing that a long time ago for it just makes my Ethereum wallet messy whenever I check it with etherscan.
Don't expect too much there, if it's an easy task take it, if they needed KYC's and verification just let it go.

Bounties on the other hand have projects being offered but you should look if they are real.
Most of them are scam attempts and you will just be wasting time and effort working for them.

Well, for this year, some successful bounty projects like Sovryn are pretty good. however, for bounties, I think there are still many that are worth it, especially now that there are many bounties with the BSC platform that already has a market. for airdrops, I also don't really follow developments from it.

You have named only 1 successful bounty, in a half year period. There were only 1-2 more and that is it. That is he biggest problem of bounties - lack of successful projects while there is an army of bounty hunters. Even if the projects shows success and its price grows, due to unlimited amount of participants, earning from it will be miserable. Previous year I can also name only few projects. Checking every day bounty section for a new campaign, just to earn couple of hundreds. That really looks doubtful to spend time on.

It's free so it will be worth it to earn a different cyrpto in such way wherein through a simple task, even sometimes there are some project that don't have value  yet in their token, still there's no regrets because its common now when it comes airdrops and bounty but so far base on my experience most of my earned token already gain value after months and now its really worth it to hodl.  ;)

There are a ton of Airdrops in cryptocurrency forms and you may most likely still see some that work the time and worth looking at, presumably in the previous months there was a number of this airdrop.
For the most part there were only some new project that need their task to be a trending one and to do that they do a major airdrop to acquire a ton of clients and acknowledgment in the cryptocurrency world, so reasonable it somewhat works since a portion of the top cryptocurrency today began with an airdrop. Nowadays I don't hear a great deal of Airdrops however without a doubt there are still a few, likely there are so numerous altcoins on the lookout so it's somewhat difficult to contend nowadays.

There are as yet a couple about additionally that is as yet worth an attempt anyway I don't think it is as yet awesome since the odds are simply so thin to get a decent venture and its vast majority, as I would see it, isn't great any longer.
Also, bounty and airdrop must be utilized as a side work. numerous bounty projects are not procuring, and token prices are low. contributing or investing  is the most ideal approach to bring in cash. however, exchanging conveys a high danger. in any case, in the event that we fear losing, obviously it won't create anything

Yes they work for both projects and participants. I get to know so many good projects through bounty and I actually invested in them.
I invest and get tokens and thorough bounties, I get more tokens.
This way I ended up having good amount of tokens that I think have potential.

If you know how to choose one then yeah it is worth a work but if not then it is waste of time and a stupid thing to take part.
I have seen some airdrops and bounties since the bullrun comes in which galantly paying participants but still there are in reputation section that maintain being scammy up to now.
there are even managers that being tagged of supporting scam project and some runs with the bounty money.

It depends because airdrops and bounties are like free lotteries you can join. If you're lucky it can give you huge amounts, here in my country some lucky people became a millionaire of it but that only happened after 1yr from the date he participated on that airdrop. No one knew that particular airdrop will give a huge amount, some received but only a small amount if converted to cash. If you have nothing to do, participating in these airdrop or bounties won't hurt but your effort will slowly decrease because you are not certain if you will really get something from it in the long run.

Given the fact that many new entrants are entering the market who do not have the money for the initial investment, airdrops and rewards are the only way for them to earn the initial capital. For the most part, getting a decent reward is very problematic right now, but I still had some that brought in a few thousand dollars.

It depends. Bounties are worth the effort if you find a good one in my opinion, but airdrops usually are not. There are of course exceptions of airdrops that were very profitable, but that was either a few years ago (NEM or Dfinity) or they were linked to some condition that you didn't know before like the airdrop of Uniswap for which you had to have traded on Uniswap before the announcement of the airdrop. If you want to participate in airdrops (and bounties) then you should definitley create an extra wallet just for that kind of stuff because for most airdrops you have to provide a lot of data (which makes them not a real airdrop anymore in my opinion) and you never know where that data ends up.

i think airdrops and bounties provide tasks according to the rewards offered but there are a lot of projects that don't progress and some have to stop halfway before the prizes are distributed

Airdrops and bounties are still worth it, just that there are so many scam airdrops and bounties nowadays, it's really hard to spot the good ones out of the bad ones, and I won't advice anyone to take it as a full time job because sometimes bounty payments can be delay for a month or more, and it's not guaranteed that the payment will be high or worth the job, airdrop tasks are more simple than bounties, but bounties pays more most times.

In my early days of crypto during the hype bull run of BTC to $20k, airdrops and bounties are the reason why it’s worth participating in them despite the risks of our time and effort in promoting them. I paid all my debts, giving back to my family, traveling back and forth in the Philippines and overseas, setting up my small studio, etc. No matter if the rewards are small, but it’s still a reward and I’m grateful for that. We should always acknowledge the risks that we have in spending our time and effort in joining these airdrops and bounty programs and having a mindset that there are no guarantees in payments, or if the price pumps, etc. It’s still worth for me, at least it helped me in the current pandemic since last year.

Bounties....no.
Airdrops....yes, but not the ones you see on the forum. The only good airdrops are the ones where you get rewarded for testing a defi system or similar.

I don't really fancy Airdrops like that because I feel what ever you get from them is usually not worth it not only in the monetary form but the exercises that might be required sometimes that you complete and what you eventually get.
I would rather do Bounties which have been worth the work most of the time only that, I don't like when Bounties owners start requesting for what was not initially in the condition just because there is a clause that says, some rules can be changed by Bounty owners. I believe that part could have been stated to cub whatever you don't want from the beginning than to allow Hunters to finish work and now throw it in. It looks like a SCAM to me.
Anyways, Bounties are still more better to me than Airdrops.

I believe that company airdrops and bounties deserve attention and participation. There are several reasons for this. First of all, these companies help the development of the crypto industry. They disseminate information about a particular crypto project, platform, company. Provide an opportunity for the crypto community to learn about new products and earning opportunities. On the other hand, this is a great opportunity to earn cryptocurrency without spending your personal funds. However, there are also downsides. This work is not for everyone, because it will require the completion of a number of important tasks that not everyone can or wants to do. But for me personally, since 2017, participation in airdrop and bounty companies is the main work that could significantly change my life for the better.

In my own opinion, alot of factors will determine whether an airdrop or bounty is worth the effort that's being put in by the hunters, first, I must say that most, and I actually mean "most" of airdrops this days are totally useless and a time waste on the path of the hunter, I remember I've been filling airdrop forms and bots, performing all their required tasks since 2020 but I've not received any of those airdrop tokens till today.
Bounties are still fair as alot of bounties are always worth the work except for some that decides to disappoint the hunters by not paying or by paying tokens or coins that's never gonna get listed.
So in conclusion, we should individually evaluate the bounties and know which are worth the work and which aren't, all project bounties can never be the same, and as for airdrops, 99 percent of all airdrops are never paid, so in other words, I outrightly say that airdrops aren't worth the work.

It depends on the legitimacy and activeness of a project. There are lots of airdrops nowadays that end up with nothing yet there are also bounties that succeed which provides reasonable rewards. As for me, we should only be skeptical and try to avoid suspicious projects. Some airdrops are asking for too much information but don't pay accordingly so we have to be mindful upon joining.

Some bounties are definitely worth the work even now that many claim bounties are not as good as what they use to be, I don't know about airdrop now but back in 2017 some airdrops gave many people good money, but nowadays airdrops are mostly considered a waste of time because of the peanut you are given at the end of it all.

The most important thing is that by participating in airdrops and bounty companies, you do not invest your money, and therefore by participating in bounty companies and airdrops you can earn good money for free and therefore it is certainly worth participating in both airdrops and bounty companies, but do not forget that most airdrops and bounty companies are scams and therefore you will not receive anything for participating in most airdrops and bounty companies and you will simply waste your time.

I would say it will at 50/50 because we cannot determine the success of such project in the market, some got value and pay hunters on the other hand it will become scam after promoted to for couple of weeks much worst if project succeed and the team refuse to pay their promoters. In my experiences, I earned some handsome rewards and it helped me a lot to earn extra income while at come especially in this pandemic times.

both are still a consideration for everyone who enjoys it. some people do both some prefer bounties over airdrops.
what is clear, I myself only believe in airdrops carried out by projects that are already running or new projects that collaborate with pre-existing projects.

That depends on the individual. For some people, bounties may be more suitable, and for some other group airdrops may be suitable. Nowadays airdrops are also taking a lot of time to enroll. Previously all you need to do was to provide your ERC-20 wallet address, and may be the email address as well. But now the airdrops ask for all sort of information, including the Twitter, Facebook and Telegram accounts. Also, you need to make posts with your social media accounts. In short even the airdrops have become similar to bounty campaigns.

For bounty hunters nowadays it is difficult to get a good project, too many projects and mostly just a scam, if we can get $100 from 1 bounty for a month then we are lucky.

You have determined it base on the success rate but the main fact is that you are earning from airdrop and bounties without investing money in the project. You have to do some micro task and it doesn't take much time to complete those. So, both are worth. Occasionally the participants receive good amount from some airdrops and bounties. So there is nothing to complain as everything is for free.

Indirectly you do invest money in the project because you could have used the time to actually pursue a job that pays you money. But of course it is a safe alternative to get involved with cryptocurrencies. Airdrops aren't worth it I believe although it depends where you are from. A dollar in the US is not the same as a dollar in very poor countries.

I know that some of the bounty hunters and airdrop participants from the third world nations are happy with rewards of $20 or $25 per campaign. But the transaction fee is one of the main issues here. Recently, in many cases the cost of moving the tokens from wallet to the exchange went as high as $50. That leaves the bounty hunter with no option other than to keep the tokens with him. And in the end, he suffers losses when the token price goes down. And no one likes it, when the reward can't spent after working so hard.

Wont be considered as totally lost since you didnt invest money but on other hand you had invested time and effort which is mainly concern for most people and tell it on not to be worth and its true that one of the hindrance would be the fee because if we do try to see it wouldnt really be worth on just making out simple transfers but we know that not all the times would be like this on where there would be times where fee is on the floor.
Its true that majority would be saying that earned amounts is way too low but for 3rd world countries then these amounts would really be significant.

Airdrops minimum effort and time - small rewards (not participating), Bounties all depends on the tasks (participating and enjoying this work) at the moment there are few good bounties with high payouts, but if you combine all the payouts then get a good amount (now I'm participating in 15 Bounties ). I love this job.

Not surprised about that.  The dollar equivalent to most 3rd world country are really worth the time for some.
Me coming from a third world country as well, it isn't just worth the risk for me as I was already done being phished back in the days when I attempted to do.

You are very amazing because you can do 15 bounties in every month, because that is a very large number in my opinion, so I also want to know what bounties are you following? can you say it here, maybe there are some that I also like to follow.

This is actually true, no one should expect too much from airdrops or bounties, because its not guaranteed that the payment will be huge, I won't advise anyone to take airdrops or even bounties as their main source of income, cause AFAIK airdrops and bounties only pay well during bull runs, in a bearish market /season airdrops and bounties are not worth the time you put in cause the after the payment the coin only end up getting dumped, its better to learn trading than put all hopes on free coins(airdrops) and bounties.

"Airdrops" at the beginning were a novel idea to get new coins noticed, but like anything over time it has lost value and been converted into a clickbait type trigger. Ultimately unless an altcoin has an original idea behind it, then all the functionality has likely been covered by an existing coin and it is simply being released to enrich the original "creators". While the original purpose might have been to gain traction and attract miners, it has now become the latest way to pump'n'dump trash. Things like advertising on social media in return for bounties is very much similar to how a pyramid scheme is designed to expand - get existing people to do hard work for pennies while the biggest whales take away huge sums then dump for the next project.

Yep indeed. That is why Ethereum based projects aren't an option for third world participants these days. Which kind of goes against the general idea of cryptocurrencies when it comes to global inclusion. By now I think a lot of projects switch to either BSC or TRX. With a little bit of studying most should be able to figure out how stuff works.

During first weeks of bounty each bounty hunter can calculate an approximate amount he would get in the end. Each hunter knows the budged, campaign allocation and calculate how much 1 stake would be on average. Besides, why would hunter immediately tries to sell his rewards for $20-$25 ? There is always an option to wait and get more. Also hunter must be ready with the situation when token price goes down. Hunter would better not join all available campaigns, but rather be selective. "working so hard" - it was already discussed multiple times, that hunters rarely work hard. They spend few minutes doing social campaigns, and most of them spend half an hour copy/pasting projects info from whitepaper and webpage and call it as an "article".

I think it's really worth it. the reason, the first of course is because it's Free and if the Airdrop or Bounty that we follow is good and has prospects, of course we get paid. lots of bounties that pay participants. yesterday I followed Apeswap and as a result I am happy.

Bounties are still worth the effort as long as you happen to find a legit bounty, meaning not scam and the rewards has value and tradable.
While airdops are free but only few projects are real because most of them are just scam.
If you have a plenty of time to join in bounties and airdrops then why not? Its free anyway but dont expect too much.
The worth of it depends on the project that you join in.

even now there are enough good projects that pay well. Look relatively recently there was a sovryn campaign. People who believed in her received very good rewards.

I agree with you on the success of some projects, and the bounty airdrop has brought in huge payouts.

Personally, I used to make money by these jobs, actually, I don't see it as a job, because I just spent a little free time to care about it, but it also brought a lot of happiness. 

Not at all times.
Not all people are willing to just  drop their shitcoins and expect people to get it easily.
You gotta struggle more and sell your info at some airdrops out there, buddy.

You are right in that case but regardless of that, some of us like me still do not like to get involved in Airdrops. I would rather focus more on Bounties which I believe whatever earnings that come with it are worth the time that I have put in even though Bounty campaigns too, have their own shortfalls.   

Around November or so I decided to have a business revolving around airdrops and bounties, I wanted to be "the" place for crypto working, you never know how much it will pay out but I wanted to have a group and a website that would basically be showing people who pays where and how, that way you would be working and earning, these bounties do not really stop and they do pay, sometimes what they pay turns out to be less than the fee network charges so it is useless work, but sometimes they do pay well, airdrops are the same, nowadays they are getting lesser but it is there, and even giveaways are important part because if you apply to ALL there is a good chance you may win at least one.

However what I realized is that even though you could make some money working purely this every day, the amount of work you put is not compensated at all, you earn like 50 bucks per month by working nearly 2-3 hours a day, so I stopped. I do it myself, but do not see a point in making that into a business at all.

It's worth to do anyways, it's free stuff.

If you have spare time to spend and then it's good to do. The problem about the airdrops and bounties are they expect to get something from it, when they get nothing they start bitching about how worthless those are. I mean, that's why its called "bounties" you need to search the good and legit one to get something from it, don't be that guy.

Do you mean to write Dogecoin and then mistakenly wrote Dodgecoin, adding a letter D in between or it is a different kind of token from the popular Dogecoin?

I can see you are wearing the bounty logo of Bitgesell, can you sincerely say it will survive past this bullrun? Do not be bias because you are in the bounty. Am looking for an investment in the token.

i started to know about cryptocurrencies thanks to airdrop and bounty and now i still do them regularly but not as much as i started, after earning a certain amount of capital i switched to trading and investing projects IDO, ICO.. to increase your profit and learn how to manage capital. and the airdrop and bounty deserve a perfect job during the current Covid era.

Yes, it's very common that most Airdrops don't have a market or don't enter the market, because Airdrops are made only to promote products that are not well known and that is also only temporary so most of them don't have a market. Unlike the bounty managed by serious teams, the token will always be in the market if it has been registered.

There are still a lot of  airdrops and bounties created so it still attracts more people in the community, if you have the time and do no have the means to invest, airdrops and bounties, are the means to get hold of newly created coins, but there is no guaranty that these coins will yield you profit, it's still gambling participating in airdrops and bounty hunting.

Yes they are worth it. For sure. For me, it offers a lot of help especially for those people that wants a "part time job" by just doing something not totally exhausting. And me, when I entered the World of Crypto, I started it by, getting airdrops and bounties which I am now using it to grow my funds. And pertaining to the benefit, the rewards are not totally limited to what are they as is. Because we all know that it all depends on btc. And something to mention, bounties are more likely to be "sure money" than airdrops.

Airdrop? Mostly not and just a waste of time. Bounties? Sometimes if you joined a project that is really promising and was able to pay the hunters who promote their project. Before, many airdrop and bounties are really profitable and worth it ,but now, you're lucky if you can find the best one. I always joined bounty campaign but only receive a small amount , but it is still helpful for me because I used it as capital in trading to make it grow.

- Investing also cannot be a routine activity and every day, it needs the right times, besides, what I see most in people during this time is probably the time, people's time at home is still relatively large when the government is suspending a lot of activities and restricting movement of everyone until the Covid situation is stabilized. Airdrops and bounty are what can be added to the empty hours that we are skipping every day in a very wasteful, not completely profitable way but some new experiences and knowledge are also quite interesting

Depends. If you're into long-term investment, you don't need the "right times". You just need something to chill you out in the long run of your investment.
Day trading would be the one that you're talking about because that strategy really made me think that I do not belong to crypto trading but indeed I was....only with different strategy.

I think the time it takes for the research and luck; it isn't worth it for me.   

As of today, there are still potential income in airdrops and bounties but not the same way back 2017-2018 where in a lot of great bounties scattered here in forum. Bounties that can give you a great amount of income like 4 digits and even 5 digits in usd.

It's the market that will decide which of these projects that will survive. All we can do is to look into the project and decide on our own whether it's worth putting money on or not. Bitgesell has a working wallet, its own blockchain but also wrapped version in erc-20 and bep-20, an active Dev team, and you can also look at other factors like supply and halving.

some will not give us anything. You can view some of the recently launched projects and create campaigns. It wasn't until the end of the campaign that the bounty manager stopped the campaign because the team did not respond to the bounty manager. also, no news until the campaign is finished for distribution. It all depends on how we can choose the project.

It all depends if the project is good and with a strong team behind. Nowadays most airdrops are from meme tokens to increase their holders count and even if we receive millions of tokens its just worth less than $1.

As of now, Bounties are the best way to get crypto without investing any money, Only time investment.

Airdrops and bounty can be valuable if you find a project that is actually real. there are many examples of good value airdrops this year, maybe among what I know this year is safepal, tko and many others that I don't know have fantastic values, for bounties if you have the ability according to your criteria it doesn't hurt to try , who knows luck accompanies at the right time.

Bounty and airdrop are work first, receive money later.
For me, enjoyment is in many stages, it is in how I complete my work, after receiving the money. It's like a conquest.
The bonus is also very important, I think it depends on the vision of the projects you choose. I have criteria such as the quality of the project, the general bonus for the program. In addition, the element of luck is also very important because projects are running a bounty program before the ICO, so if suddenly listed on major exchanges, the reward can increase in value.

it used to be worth it and a lot of people got great results. but currently airdrops and bounties are less enthusiastic. but if it's just to fill your spare time it still seems worth doing. but don't get your hopes up because the effort expended to do the task is not worth the reward.

Bitcointalk itself a rich learning source about cryptos. I can not say about Airdrops but Bounties are worth joining. Its not tough to join even one can earn good money from the bounties but I must say bounties are worth in the bull season but in the bear market most of the projects failed to achieve even soft cap. If you are working & have some extra time to work then bounty work is the best option to do like I am doing.

Yes, but they all work diffeent. So you got to scout them fast in order not to waste time.

i agree with you, btt helped us a lot, here we can find almost everything related to crypto. I am also happy that it is also a place to share many projects through bounty campaigns, indeed to me it is also seen as a place to get some money at the right time.

Overall with bitcointalk this is very helpful for people who are here,
because here we can discuss things about the world of cryptocurrencies and of course it adds to our knowledge,
other than that what you say is true here we can make money by joining the bounty campaign

About airdrops it is only 1% is legit then 99% surely scam or not paying in the end after the programs. But bounties I could say 50/50 chances for us to earn through with it. Because scam projects still follow by it. Just like now since BSC is very trending now where most of the project used this BSC platform compared to ETH due to large fee that's why BSC became more popular. So, most of the scammers jumped in into BSC from ERC20 before.

I haven't participated in airdrops for such a long time, so need to ask this question. What is the success percentage of airdrops nowadays? If we are participating in 20 airdrops, can we expect at least one to give good rewards? Yesterday I talked to one of my friends. He is claiming that he received a few thousands of USD worth of coins by participating in the ICP airdrop. The amount is very significant and I want to confirm that such rewards are possible nowadays (they were common back in 2018).

Exactly, many of them are BS market promotions. I don't know why many people are still participating in this and receives nothing. And until when those people could realize that they are wasting their time only?

I actually participating in this before and yes, you can never find which one is legit as most of them are fake. And until today, it has no change and it was a shame for us that we still not learn though it was clear enough that it was only a shit.

If it's an airdrop, I don't have experience following it, but if it's a bounty, I think it's more feasible than an airdrop. indeed many bounties are scams, but at least they can still generate tokens that can be used as trading capital. And from that trading, what I really hope for in the future is to make money every day

Close to zero :D ICP airdrop is just one of a kind. It is like Uniswap airdrop. Such things happens only once in a life and airdrop participants should not hope to get in such and airdrop again.

I think that today, main purpose of airdrops is not to introduce people with project and allow users to test its usability, by giving them tokens/coins as a demo, but just to enlarge telegram group. To show investors how huge and popular their project is.

Not all bounties by joining them can make money, there are a lot of scam projects, you should pay attention to this and do research on any project you join so as not to waste your time, in my opinion, good projects are run by experienced managers and they have positive trusts, Because they get money from the project team before they work on promoting their project.

Yeah, time will be your capital in doing bounty. But as far as I can see, bounty campaign nowadays is being belittled by some project teams and even get scam their participants. If that incidents will continuously happen, then the credibility of bounty will loose as time passed by.

I think some of the airdrops are still worth it. some of the airdrops I've seen developing pay not so much, sometimes $1 to $10. however, it depends on the job. So far, I'm also no longer participating in airdrops because I'm thinking about a fairly large fee and I'm still working on other things.

I also gave up on airdrop because it has too many scam projects, I can't deny the success of some airdrops that have also brought in significant money, but I don't want to spend a lot of time on things in vain, and this work also depends on the patience of each person. And I know that if you work hard, you will get results.

if airdrops and bounties have big prizes then it is very mandatory to follow the bounty work is still good enough to do because some pay high fees, just choose a bounty that really has the potential to pay bounty hunters, lots of bounties have to choose a good bounty to pay with the right amount of payment, while airdrops are rare, those with great potential pay very little. The current airdrop and bounty participants are not good enough to do because they are not paying 100%.

Yeah and I am afraid that if those incident will continue, many other projects will do the same because it became successful in others. I hate to think that bounty campaigns are slowly lacking of importance in crypro space.

for airdrops it doesn't always give a lot of money, but if we continue to collect results from the airdrop I'm sure it will be worth our work,
my friend followed the airdrop for one month and he got pretty good results, around $300, of course for him it was something valuable.
don't give up on participating in the airdrop, because right now the airdrop is more valuable than anything

It depends upon the bounty as well as the participants. There are bounties that has small allocation in every campaigns but has less number of participants so in that case it is OK. While some bounties have high allocation but too many participants so for example you can only get $20 per week. On the other hand, not all campaigns are legit. Even these times, scams are still everywhere.
Airdrop ? I am not a fan of airdrop right now.

Yes of course but you need to be smart on wvich ones you choose because of the many rug pulls and this year i was fortunate to participate on two bounties that were successfull and i got a considerate amount of money but the problem is that social media compaigns have too many participants and the pay is not much

From what projects did you get the most profit this year? and for social media campaigns, there are always many participants because the average crypto lover all uses social media to find news and to follow campaigns in this forum.

True having a social media account is one of the requirements to join the airdrop and bounty campaign,
that's why it's important to have multiple social media accounts from multiple apps,
in addition to the conditions we can also find out various information by following social media media

I agree we must first look at the allocation of the bounty campaigns, if it has a small allocation I avoid it. But if the allocation is large but
the participants are not limited I also avoid it. I am very picky when it comes to choosing a bounty campaign. Because I don't want the results of
my work for a few weeks to get a very small pay. I also stopped participating in airdrops since 2019, besides the pay is usually not too big,
which makes me lazy to join the airdrop, most of which require us to do KYC procedures. i will not give my personal data just to get $10-$20.

The current issue on both Airdrop and Bounty was the undertaking behind it generally rampant and didn't pay every one of the members. Just not many out of many existing system is genuine that is the reason numerous members exertion become squandered. With bounties we ought not anticipate quick cash or large cash inside a short. What we gather as bounties should be kept aside as a drawn out venture.

Still worth, i think bounties still good seeing some project started with BSC tokens really growth. Maybe if this trend still happening, bounties can back like past when good project come 1 by 1 and then fill crypto market with their tokens.

I agree with you on the social media angle that is why I personally don't participate on most Social media Bounty other than Signature and like you, I have been fortunate which some Bounties in recent times. It is all about being lucky mostly with these bounty projects as some have been really disappointing and I won't hesitate to always mention (STC StudentCoin) which turned out to be a real SCAM. As for Airdrops, I don't really do that at all.

Social media bounty is the least rewarding type of bounty campaign, because a lot of people use fake social media profiles to take part in it. And many of the campaigns demand too much, such as 10-15 posts per week. If you do this using your real social media account, then you can easily get flagged for spam. Not many people are willing to do this in return for a payment of $20 or $30. So in most cases, those who participate in these campaigns will be using a social media account that is either hacked or purchased.

im sure if airdrop and bounty gift you more than you work on company, but there are some fact must every newbie know about it. you can get maximum value for some month, like you need to fasting from other distraction. need time to produce profit/month. not all coin give you money, sometime, you just do nothing and spend your time. need big effort to do this work, like update all of information about crypto, learn, patient when holding coin. im sure if you diligent on every situation, it will give you best part in the end, not for short time.

True that because most of the account I ever see partaking in all this social media campaigns are usually the lower ranking accounts and with the kind of complaints I noticed people put out from that angle even further discouraged me in participating in social media campaigns. I would only go for YouTube only if I knew how to make YouTube videos 😃 and I am beginning to notice that some of this campaigns are giving the social media part more percentage than the signature campaign.

Yes, each program does have a different allocation, both bounties and Airdrops, but what must be seen in this matter is who manages it, because many Airdrop managers are dishonest so they don't pay the participants, as well as the bounty, so it is worth choosing managers who are really honest and experienced in it.

It all comes down to what is your time worth. We need money to sustain our lifestyle. That's a known fact and cannot be avoided.
There are some crypto projects that distribute a good amount of their tokens through bounty campaigns for promotional purposes and building a loyal community, but if you are making thousands of dollars a month from other endeavours it is probably not worth your time unless you have other interests in that project.

It is also a function of how well you can filter through the bounties popping out like mushrooms after the rain.  ;D

This is a very thin line, airdrops in the form that now are a waste of time. Subscribe to 100,500 channels in order to get less than $ 1 in half a year or turn out to be a scam. Bounty is more profitable, you cannot be 100% sure, but there are more chances.

For sure bounties worth the time and effort, there are many bounties this year which paid it's participants thousand of dollars, most of them are hosted by strong project, and after being paid the prices of the token start pumping from it's distribution price to a higher price therefore giving participants more profit for hodling, on the other hand airdrop seems not to worth the time and effort because most of them turns out to be scam and even the ones which are real pays a very little reward to it's Participant.

most of the work for the airdrop is very easy, so I guess the pay is just that range. although there are some airdrops that pay quite a lot, they are very rare. because of that, I prefer to do bounties instead of airdrops. for bounties, there are still quite a lot worth, while for airdrops, maybe many are not scams, but the pay is not that big.

Truely speaking, now a days, it's not worth of how much efforts we put doing bounty tasks for weeks. First, many a times, bounty hunters get scammed and do not receive anything. In case project is genuine, due to large number of participants and less allotted budget, the received amount is quite low. For airdrop, now a days, transaction fees is more than what we receive. So it's not that worthy.

Of course they are worthy there are many airdrops group you can join and then join any airdrop it will take only a few minutes and guess what if one of the airdrops gives you 500$ for few minutes then boom.

Bounties are good too I have seen many people earning healthy monthly income from Bounties.

Regards

not all, most of the times you get scammed and efforts are useless not unless if the said Project was like Sovryn who has a lot of strategies and now look at them.
It is indeed a good find IMO,

First of all, welcome to those of you who are new to this forum by providing a few solutions that are sometimes not needed by everyone, even though the solutions you offer may be good for those who need them. ;D

I can feel it, become successful by doing bounty project depends on our fortune. People suggest to do research before applying on any bounty project, it's obvious to do but that is not guaranteed you get smart money. There are several terms of conditions working whether you will get successful or not. Don't get upset, lots of opportunities our there as well.

If i may add, Also choose a bounty that being manage by a reputable bounty manager, since most trusted manager wont allow scam projects on their management services. this will limit the chances of exposing yourself to scam and wasting your time in joining scam campaign.

Most airdrops now only pay for a few cents, even smaller ascents, what I see in airdrops now only uses them to follow their social media so that they have more followers and that's all they don't pay and it's different from airdrops UNI, 1inch, etc. are bigger and now most of the airdrops are only paid for with shitcoins in large amounts.

After Sovryn gave many opportunities to profit from his signature bounty I am now only looking at Babelfish who will follow in sovryn's footsteps and they are now in collaboration with many goals to form, I think this is one good bounty.

Yes, but don't forget that before joining a project in the form of a campaign, everyone is always advised to research it first because the project that is being followed by many people now is a new project, not an old project that is already popular, as well as Airdrop.

all have their own momentum. at least this year will be better than you see 2018-2020. many scam projects, successful but not paying. successful and paying but not listed on the exchange.
airdrops and bounties still exist and still make money for those who work on them. but it all still depends on the project that is followed. many choices and all up to us to choose it.

I keep on doing bounties as it already a habit to participate in them. I can say, that I'm already experienced bounty hunter (at least not a newbie) and it does not take much time to do weekly tasks. If I get reward for doing them, I feel happy. If I'm scammed by the project, I dont feel disappointed much. I'm already used to that. Conclusion - if bounties and airdrops dont take much time, I would participate in them, but I dont tune in receiving much.

With so many scam projects, it certainly makes us hesitate to join the airdrop or bounty campaign,
risk is always there so it's better before joining we have to do our own research on the project and that way at least we can get clearer information,
most importantly stay careful before joining the project

Airdrop and bounties is a good way to earn rewards by joining the right one, it rewards are sometimes huge because of the number of bounties the participants take part in most especially social media campaign.

But in recent times so many fake teams come up with bounty but in the end, run away without notice and all effort waited, so to me airdrop and bounty is a risk and game of luck.

Now too many fakes, I see last time that from 50 companies - just one will pay, another team creating decisions and ways how not to pay!  even some popular projects in the end of bounty said the users - that they will not pay!

Those are the two scenarios that are commonly happening with airdrops and bounties.

Some people who have made money out of it have ended up thinking that it's a good career so they made it as a career but in the long run, they found out that it's becoming outdated and no longer effective.

When a newbie asks, no one stops you from doing it but don't be wholly dependent on it.

The worth of every airdrop is depends on the project, if they succeed well the token that they've giveaway may have a good price, but the reality is, many of these airdrops become worthless because many of the coin/token doesn't survive on the high market competition. In your question if it is worth, yes but I would suggest that you choose airdrops and bounty that are base on BSC because just incase you receive your reward you can easily transfer it in exchange your coin are supported with a low cost of transaction fee.

its be our risk when we decided in any bounty campaign, some of them will give us good reward and some of them just waste our time and energy. but we have way to minimize found fake campaign , just participate in bounty that managed by popular or trusted manager. most of them will success in market.

Yes, it can be the easiest way to choose a project, by betting on the name of a manager who has been proven to manage many successful projects, the response of an experienced manager is very important in a project.

The fair answer to this question is persistence wins the race in crypto space either investment or promoting new projects, ask yourself how many times you are willing to fail and still stand of your feets? This is the way, if you don't crave for easy way out you will alway be a winner

worth it if you only hunt for free coins, if you are good at managing your finances you can multiply from the results of the bounty or airdrop,
I personally only do bounties and airdrops, and I get the results of those two jobs.
but it's smart to choose projects for bounties because many sometimes don't pay when they are successful

Yes, some tokens are worth collecting specially the free ones that required little to no effort. My best airdrop was uniswap airdrop and it was a big payday for many bounty hunters who owns hundreds of meta mask wallet during the snap shot.

Several persons are getting discouraged participating on bounties and airdrops, the major reason is because most persons end up working without getting paid, probably because the team refused to pay after the work has been completed or the project failed and there was no point distributing worthless tokens.

maybe this is the daily work of many people here, i am also one of them. Airdrop and bounty is my work and life, i do it everyday and pay for my life yourself and your family.

Those are one off in terms of Airdrops. Most Airdrops are usually not worth much and even if some of them might not really require the participants to do much, I still don't get into Airdrops because I personally feel it doesn't pay much and don't worth much but Bounties I prefer and even though like you mentioned, we have started to notice some Bounty projects that are deviating from their original quote as regards what will be paid to Bounty hunters after Bounty conclude due to different reasons which I don't believe should affect bounty hunters though.

Really depends on the Token allocation when we are talking about bounties.
sometimes its not that profitable and also with the volume of the participants.

while with airdrop, i could say is like your looking for a needle in a haystack.
not that worthy but when you hit a jackpot its like that

Current bounty payments are very cheap, you can calculate the $100k bounty and the number of participants is 2000 so that participants only get an average of $ 5 and it takes up to 4 months, of course this is not suitable, but for those who have a lot of time it is certainly not a problem

its be bounty manager and developer team deal. they want as much as participant in order to make them more popular into cryptocurrency community and attract them to be investors. And dont forget we never what will happen to market , sometime although we receive very few token but in markt it could be very worth . Look at DIA as example , first bounty hunter complaining reward to small , but when it finished and enter market suddenly they smiling.

Yes, that's fine, but you also have to have a job in a real and profitable environment to be able to fulfill your personal life and also be able to help your family in general, because the results through the crypto space will always vary and will not always the same every day.

having regular job will be better for us ,our daily needs could covered by our salary from regular job. due uncertain result from bounty campaign or airdrop , we must do another job no matter its come from crypto market such as trading or outside market. if we talk certainity , in crypto especially bounty reward we dont have it.

You can't rely solely on earnings from the cryptocurrency market, as they are too volatile. Everyone talks about making a living out of cryptocurrency, when the prices are high. I heard the same arguments in 2017 as well, when the prices were rocketing upwards. But these arguments subsided in 2018, when the prices crashed by 80%-90%. I hope the same will not happen now. Because when a crash occurs, it is the smaller projects that suffer the most. And those who depend on such projects for a living are going to suffer.

Airdrops are counterproductive to every project that holds it for few reasons.

Just looking at every one of them. 85,000 people participate in airdrops with 500 selected winners just one example. Anyone who doesn't win the airdrop lotto will stay away from that token/coin in the future. This always results in token depreciating in value and everyone losing interest. On one hand, you have exposed your project to more people but on the other hand you have turned off many future investors.

Bounties on the other hand are great way to promote your project as long as you pay participants. Every participant gets paid and a lot of them might end up investing given project has value and everything else is in its place from whitepaper, marketing to development. There is a lot of leg room for new investors.

Some project does both though. Would the airdrops still considered to be still counter productive if there's a bounty to promote the said project?
Either way, I stopped these two anyway back in 2018-2019 cause they're purely just a lot of work to me except for airdrops of course, however one project even emailed me just to try and bait me to their phishing site.

Both are worth doing, people's views must be different in every view I prefer the bounties that is done I have biggest reason because the airdrop has a small income, working on a bounties project must also be smart to choose to get paid properly not all projects are disappointing

If the airdrop is free then join it, As for bounties there are many fake bounty nowadays that always end up with ZERO pay. That''s why i only join a bounty manage by a reputable manager or a bounty that paid weekly.

how much reward we received from airdrop program should not be serious problem due easinest doing task to get coin. Working both of them will take our time alot , but if we consistence with the task, someday we will find best campaign ever. This is the key in airdrop or bounty campaign, no one could guarantee we will get all reward, but the important thing is someday we will get amount that we never imagine before.

most airdrops are free and there are more fake airdrops than a bounty because bounty are mostly conducted in the forum and you can see the reputation that manages the bounty but airdrops are everywhere and you dont know if you will get paid or not .
@bastian466 it depends mate , sometimes the value of your coins in airdrop are worth more than a bounty that you have join

some projects still exist that have not been able to solve the problem with the tokens they will launch, for example after the bounty ends the tokens are still in the creation stage so the people who participate in promoting the project still haven't gotten paid because they are still in the process of making the coins launched by the related project.  This is not the first case, it has happened many times even though the manager of the related bounty campaign already has the trust but mistakes are usually made by the developers of the related project

I know all the history of "Student Coin". We should put student coins in scam projects. Bounty detectives should use escrow service before launching new projects. Although I don't believe now we have fifty-fifty chances to get paid. Now we're ahead of the bullrun season. Only a few years ago we had different wallet problems and now we have Trust wallet and Atomic wallet.

So, I think that depends, at least it can be more profitable than faucets, but the capability and purpose that an airdrop provided years ago doesn't even compare to the current situation. Bounties campaign is even worse, because it's just a matter of analyzing the scarcity of projects in the forum and still offering bounties. Certainly, if you find any, the number of vacancies will be filled quickly. If you are not willing to learn some skill, you will hardly find anything in cryptocurrency these days.

- For such insignificant support levels, they should invest more knowledge in other areas, even try to find opportunities with bounty, bounty also has quite a few simple categories and only matters your diligence with your weekly effort, the income level will be more clearly supported, don't feel that bounty is something more demanding and difficult, it's all just normal work and we need to take good care, instead of trying to get the job done without care and imprecision.

Do you know how much time it takes to complete an airdrop tasks? It takes only 2-4 minutes. And I participate in small number of airdrops. Overall it doesn't take much time for me. Airdrop has no connection with job, you can do it during your free times. Though airdrop tokens aren't worth always, but occasionally few airdrop project gets big success. And those projects can give you a nice crypto gain.

The problem sometimes is that a lot of these airdrop coins never get listed on any decent exchange. I still participate from time to time in airdrops but try to pick the right one to avoid that I would waste my time.

Well it is pretty expected from a lot of airdrops that it wouldn't get listed on a decent exchange. Even being listed on a small exchange and stay near its initial price is rare. There are a lot of airdrop participants that are dumping their tokens once it reached the exchange even if the value of it is not worth selling. To be honest, It's hard to pick a worthy airdrop because of the airdrops that are launching every day. Scanning many airdrop projects and filtering the good airdrops is just tiring to do.

Sorting it up gives you decent chance to participate with potential project, those who have  good team behind,

developers who really aiming for the success of the project, unlike most bounty offers which mainly trying to attract potential investors
to scam out and runaway with their money, avoiding to take your part and promoting those scammers, be very furious when choosing
your aridrops/bounty participation.

Actually sometimes bounty are worth enough.It pay some huge money for the work of two months. But sometimes, some bounty scam the people.They working for the hard time. Working in bounty is not a easy task.They need to work for two months. So the bounty people should pay them without fail.

Airdrop of two types. One will pay and other won't pay. If you work in the airdrop which conducted through bitcointalk, it may pay you in some point.Incase you work in the airdrop by seeing the youtube or any other resources like telegram group, they won't pay you at the end.

we can get profit without spending capital, of course it's worth doing. we just need to do according to the existing rules and we will get paid. if we can follow the good bounties or airdrops of course we will also get good pay too, it will be very profitable. it does take quite a while to wait for the payment but I think it's very worth following especially if used for the side. therefore it is important for us to be able to choose a legit bounty to follow.

airdrops are a complete waste of time. But I think quality managed bounty campaigns are worth the effort... In this way, you can both improve yourself and earn money without investing.

I don't really know right now I stopped on joining them because I didn't gain anything from them anymore.
Bounties take too much time and effort and it is hard to find a good one to take the risk,
While airdrop only takes a few task to participate but only few would actually send their tokens and the amount would be so small that it would cost you more if you sell them or convert them due to the fee so it isn't really good at all.

It's free and the method is very easy, which I complained about when I had to invite friends, in the end the friend I invited to join the airdrop asked me about payment and I felt embarrassed when I wasn't paid or there was no price, this is my personal experience

It's true, I think an experience like yours is very common among people who invite their friends to join the Airdrop,
because the follower will definitely ask the person who invited him.

I have a similar story as well. I haven't participated in a great number of bounty campaigns which advertise new ICO projects. I participated in 2-3 campaigns in 2017-18, and back then the reward was good. Therefore I asked one of my friends to join these campaigns, as he was in very dire need of money. He might have participated in two-three dozen campaigns, but only one of them paid him (and that too was a very small amount, like $50). Fortunately for me, he just said that he was unlucky and refused to blame me. But I felt really embarrassed to have failed him.

But due to greed then people would really be aiming for doing lots of things which they would be joining lots of bounties in one go without minding if its a shit or a good one.

Its true that majority would be completely trash but there are some which are worth but choose those would be the hardest thing at all.You wouldnt know on what comes next its either you would be get paid and get some
value of those coins or not.So the risk is in every corner.

I dont see that it would be feasible or good to engage as of these years but it seems there are people who are really into it no matter what.

That's right, without putting in patience and hard work, all work will feel in vain and even without getting anything because in the bounty and also in the Airdrop, not all tokens or coins can have a fairly expensive value when in the market.

Airdrops are usually not worth the effort. I received an airdrop recently in my Binance Smart Chain wallet but then I was required to pay a fee to be able to transfer my tokens. There are few airdrops that are true airdrops where you don't have to do anything and most of the time the coins you get are only worth a few cents.

Bounties might still be worth it but I haven't participated in one in a long time because there are not very many big projects doing bounties in this forum. The last big ones were Betfury and Sovryn and many people have had good profits after participating in these bounties.

The majority of the votes are positive on airdrop and bounty, there are still a lot of good bounties I have friends who are very much into bounty, they are earning good but there is a long wait for the coin to get into the market and you have to work on many bounties because every bounty or project is a gamble, you are not sure of its outcome in the market.

For Airdrop is not sure because of the airdrops pays peanuts, while bounty is more secure though some project owners and bounty managers runaway with participants funds claiming the project own didn't pay for the bounty. while most bounty manager will devised a means to runaway with people's funds.
take your time and follow good manager then you will know bounty is worth giving time to earn.

I got some luck with bounties that I've joined.
But for airdrops I don't have.
And it's not all the time that the bounties I've joined are rewarding, there were many that seems to be a decoy project and wasted my time.

Yes, but recently I have also found that there are several bounty projects that are scams in the middle of the road even though the bounties are held by good managers, now because of this we can conclude that both Airdrops and bounties are actually equally good to follow and should always be followed researched before being followed.

Every bounty campaign comes with risks. A lot of things can happen: the project can turn into a scam, the price can go to the bottom, or it can simply not raise enough money and the project can fail. That's why the rates in bounty campaigns are usually quite high. If we are lucky, we may be able to earn quite well.
As for airdrops, I haven't heard of any that are profitable. Mostly is distributed only dust.

free money is free money, you do it in your free time and got incentives while doing it.


you need a good reputation if you want to earn more in this forum.

So if you new here but already understand how the bounty/airdrop works...it's better to just do article bounty..make a handful one and got paid more.,..rather than doing social media bounty.

Once again it's a free money if you look close enough...furthermore if you just doing an airdrop last 3-4 months...it's a good season on solona.

Making articles must also have good skills, not just copy and paste, it will be labeled plagiarism and free will not get any prizes, if you have those skills then it's better for services, I think there are those who need article services about crypto and gambling.

So indeed, to do Bounty/Airdrop, you have to do it with free time, don't delay your real work, it's not allowed because bounties and airdrops cannot ensure that you will get free money from them, we only try if we succeed be grateful, if it fails we can only be patient.

Both airdrops and bounties are just like 'oh let's just try it and see how it works out' because you would never know until you give them a try so don't get your hopes up and expect any outcome, I can say good things about bounties simply because few projects have paid me real good amount of money since last year but many more have failed me, my advice is bounty and airdrops aren't something to depend on

Nothing wrong if you have free time to deal with it, something that you can participate and hope for the best outcome.

Many participants are working on this kind of work hoping that in the right time and right project they'll be able to pick the right one
that will give them decent amount of payments. With a lots of available bounty works, sorting and picking the project to spend your time
is really tough. But if you are consevative and don't want to waste time, better to sort it up than joining then waste your time and efforts.

Well I am not a writer.. don't like and read much into the tech etc. For me, if you can read and think like a decent human you can make a crypto article, just make writing why this was good, connect with news...and little bit logic and yada yada, but yeah you right most of the article submitted was a copy paste.

If Bounty and Airdrop is not something that you can rely on, then why are you still following Bounty and what do you think can be relied on at this time? please answer honestly and don't be hypocritical in your every word.

That is right. There is nothing bad in doing bounties or participating in airdrops in free time. I think everyone can find several minutes a day to spend on something cryptocurrency related. Some prefer to gamble with crypto, someone to do bounty tasks and someone to trade. Everyone does what he is better in. It would be totally wrong to force myself to participate in bounties just to test the chance to earn. People should not be so addicted to crypto and value their time.

Question for you: do someone need to rely on bounty first in order to participate? He is absolutely right to say that anyone should not relying on bounties or airdrop especially for income or for living. Following bounties and airdrop does not mean that someone is relying on it to get money, if there are some people (perhaps you are one of them) is relying on bounties for their income then they are doing it wrong because it is not something you can expect.

Some people does have really some hardship on finding legit physical day jobs due to bad credentials or not qualified and since you are already aware or been known that you can have chance on earning decent with bounties then you would really be that interested on dealing or trying on it and specially if you do have experienced on earning then you would surely be continuing on finding bounties and hoping that you would able to hit
some good project which would really make out some decent and its really a risky thing to be done since you are risking your time and effort on a scam but well this is someones
decisions neither they do continue or simply find out another things which is feasible.

Bounty worth it, there are most of the bounty program that pays without delay though it's only for the higher rank users. Most bounty hunters have no such chance to be earning, as newbie or jr. members you can only enroll on media campaign which you would have to wait the distribution is being made, most at time you could get scammed by the project owners.

Yes, Bounty and airdrop have decent rewards for the participants. But only if you know what you are doing, and what is the meaning of this work? Marketing and promotion - yes, read carefully, look closely, double check... most of them don't show this. Lol, don't spend all your time on bounties and airdrops, it will make you tense.

That's right, those who are impatient and always complain on every bounty project and always complain about the circumstances or delays in bounty distribution, then such people will never get anything and what's even funnier is when someone joins a bounty then turned into a scam, he was immediately weak, even though he only worked for one week.

airdrops and bounties are things that you can join if you have free time all day, that's when it's worth it right now, back in 2017 things were really good, the market of new projects who made bounties where so alive, unlike now, most of the good projects don't even need to do bounties and airdrops to get successful, and most bounties ended failing but not all of them, so if somebody has some spare time, i would say it's definitely worth it, but it's not something that you would leave your job for.

Indeed, bounties and airdrops do not need to spend money, we only do promotional tasks and all of that must be done by doing research, meaning looking at the background and checking the whole thing, don't just do the work if you don't know the project's objectives are good or not it is important that you think you are good and your instincts are strong, so do it with the task.

The prevalence of fraud now is not as bad as in 2018/19, but fraud on projects that take investors' money away must exist every year, therefore doing research can minimize losses during that time.

Its very worthy for me. I recieved 600$+ from airdrops.
I will check bounty how it work and how its worthy.

Good for you but there are tons of bounty hunters who do just simply dive in without considering on making up some research first without even knowing or realizing that they are already dealing with scam.
Even though majority of people wont really be recommending bounties but there are really some people who do really know on what they've been doing on this market.
Some do sustain or survive but some do really failed up and end up mostly with scam projects which does simply shows that their time is just been wasted and
the effort that had been done.So its up to someone if they could risk out their time and effort knowing on how many or the ratio of fraud projects currently in the market.

Could you please give the names of these airdrops and did you participate with only one account (address) or did you participate with multiple accounts?
I have not seen such a profitable airdrop for many months or even years. Usually these are so small amounts that often even the transaction fee is higher. Collecting airdrops is mostly just cluttering your address.
Bounties depend mostly on luck.

While the votes shows 52(70%)  declare it is worth it yet the experience is far different from reality .

I already have some bad experience fropm my fast bounties and i will tell it badly scamming .

good for you then .

If you have to buy something to get involved, it's not airdrop, it's a more ponzi scheme. Airdrop is sending small amounts of coins / tokens to random or reported addresses.
I don't know why among bounty hunters it is wrong to define airdrop as collecting small amounts for performing small tasks such as following accounts or sharing, liking posts/tweets - this is not airdrop. And airdrop it is definitely not an action in which you have to buy something to get a reward, in my opinion staking is much more suitable for that.

Not 50% but lesser than that.
Some are worth to take the bounty if you have done your study towards the project that you'll be joining.
Many are scam and it's known for bounty hunters so you won't be disappointed anymore if you have joined a failed one or didn't pay you.

If in the Airdrop you can get $600+, then you can be sure you will get even more in the bounty campaign
and can even triple the results you get through the Airdrop.

Not all bounty campaigns are lousy and don't pay. Some projects are not successful in building funds from investors, they have to calculate the details of the budgets to spend properly, some projects rely only on words and a long roadmap. slightly without any demo or testnet publication (This is the state of those who are unemployed and expecting "lucky" - ICO), of course, the bonus is free and not necessarily from quit or trade off any outside work. Remember, bounty is also a form of risk...
There are projects like Apeswap (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5330167.3440) that I've been involved in, and they pay on time. Although, the value is not high.. it is also a pleasure.

Lucky for those who works for that bounties they take decent amount after completing their task.

Not that many bounties like that, most of the time scammers are dominating this venue. You need to keeps on trying to pick the
right team if you are seeking for profitable bounty participation. Not easy but more on self assessments and observations, personal
experienced  speak by itself.

I still remember and I also enjoy the results of the bounty, it is true that the current bounty allocation is on average very little but when the token price goes up, then the results will be different like Sovryn and Vulcan, because if we look at the base price of Sovryn is very cheap and not even in the tens dollars for one unit.

In the airdrops, there are indeed variations that are produced because we cannot predict whether this will be a big value or a small one, even thousands of airdrops have fallen to be promoted, we just have to choose which is better
For example, airdrops with large rewards UNI, 1inch, and many more, if they get it and dare to hold it then it will be tens of dollars when the pump occurs.

Bounty does have a limited allocation and also with various types of promotions, it's just a matter of choosing which one can be assigned to do promotions, I think the bounty is still worth doing.
The lyrics of the bounty that Hhampuz handled I saw quite promising.

And choosing the right cryptocurrency project is not like people choosing fish in the market, which can immediately see it clearly and clearly, because many projects that give good promises at the beginning but in the end just end in nonsense, indeed in general everything must be built and that requires a lot of time, but for projects that are not yet mature, they will have difficulty in the development they are running.

Yes Airdrop and Bounty are worth work because Airdrop and Bounty pay and some they don't pay but if you find a good channel that post good and Legit Airdrop and Bounty you will enjoy it to full. But Airdrop and Bounty is not for lazy people it's only for diligent people and it requires consistent.

for me only bounties are worth work...

this time the bounty program has started to look similar to 2017, many pay even though the value is small. but what hasn't changed is the airdrop, it's always disappointing, I've never participated in airdrops anymore.

I can judge about the bounty and it's still worth working on I think the upcoming project has the potential to be potential but for me this is only part of it and the rest you have to do research first.

There are even bounties that still pay with USDT, BNB, etc. with tokens that are already valuable, maybe it's still from the spirit of a hunter who hopes that this will be a better bounty than before.

No, man, the airdrop is still worth it. I see many bigger ones being produced from the airdrop and especially in the Cherry (CHE) airdrop, where the price is still high.
People can still earn over $100

We have our own jurisdiction and views towards projects and considering there are tons whos out there then not all would really be a complete trash but there are still ones which are realistic or good ones or does have potential.

Yes, this turns out to be already a dead trend in talks of bounty hunting and airdrops but there are still people who are really fan on dealing with these things and some do being lucky on able to make
some significant earnings because the project had succeed on listing on some marketplaces.

If you do see that it is something worth on your time then you could always have the decision on what to take.

Yeah.

It's similar as that year but it's still outnumbered and many from 2017 became successful. This time, there's still a good number that became successful but it's not the same as the dying year of 2018-2020.

Airdrops are not really requiring a lot of effort so you won't get a lot from there.

this is 2021 yet the votes favors YES with large amount , meaning that bounty hunters and airdrop joiner still making money from this and for me this is sucks .
because as far as my experience and the posts i read inside the forum ? it seems that different from what is happening.

Airdrops and bounties are popular here. You are free to choose how to join for free depending on the appropriate task. Coinbase created sweepstakes - an option similar to the previous form of affiliate marketing, like a survey, but they may have included an incentive "$100 transaction" as a form of baiting customers. . sweepstakes - not part of the official bounty/airdrop category.
Choose jobs HERE (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=238.0), it will probably create more value and optimism.

Yes, and that's only for Airdrops that are really clear because from what you said it's true and also only a few, because if we look out there, there are still so many Airdrops that are not worth following, because the team is not clear.

the pole asks if bounties and airdrops worth the work, that's why people chose "yes", let's be honest, it does not take a lot of work and time to join airdrops and bounties, signature campaign is literally just being active member of the forum, people do that for free just sharing their opinions, and sharing about a project in social media is also an easy task, so it is worth the work for me and a lot of people judging by the pole.

The best airdrops are the ones that you don't expect like Uniswap, 1inch, and Shapeshift. I got some FOX tokens from the Shapeshift airdrop and exchanged them for BTC right before the price of bitcoin was pumping. I have invested the BTC into some passive income streams instead of just spending it all.

Another airdrop I benefited from was the BSW airdrop on Betfury. It was not a large amount but it lead me to discover Biswap exchange and after investing in their BSW token I am now getting great returns from staking in their auto-compounding launchpool.

They're both in a way that you're not sure if they're going to be worth until the developers show that they're really working hard for it.

Those projects that have made good money from those airdrops, they just happen rarely so it's not really guaranteed if someone will focus on it.

No Doubt! I have seen many peope around me who had made  huge amount from bounties & airdrop, also some of them might not pay but some bounties like Amepay can give you huge profit, in my opinion if you have spare time then you should do it.

Bounties are worth of work, all bounty is not worthy of it.  You are new to this forum, I mean you are a jr member in this forum. So it's very difficult to earn a good amount from doing bounty, You may join most of the social media bounty. But for signature, This rank is not perfect. You may join the signature bounty but it's not so worthy. If you want to earn a good amount of money, You can do blog/article bounty, Transalation bounty, youtube video creating bounty, etc. But forget about Airdrop these days. Most of them are scams, they will just collect your Email id and sell them for a few bucks. Still, I received a lot of emails in my mail box, all of them are spam. In past days, I use the mail for joining airdrop.

Amepay is a very good quality project. It paid all the payments to the Bounty Hunters. Student coin on the other hand is also a very good quality project but it did not pay the hunters in full. There will be two types of projects, good and bad. Those who have a lot of free time can participate in the bounty. Because bounty is a good way to make money without investing.

Actually the allocation of $20K would not be too small if the bounty Manager made a limit for each participant and did not distribute the allocation into many campaigns, so that the participants who wanted to participate in it also saw it very clearly that the allocation was very suitable for the number of participants who few and also not many campaigns in it.

Those who care about their reputation are good projects, some just choose to scam bounty hunters despite the fact that they raised a good amount during the ICO or crowd sale, one example is Student coin who has been for so many years in the space, and when they finally reach a decent amount, listed in the good exchange, they just choose not to reward the effort of their advertisers, particularly the bounty hunters. With that action, they already ruin their reputation which is hard to restore anymore.

Is there something that they can do in terms of fees or gas whenever the rewards would be passed up? They cant do such thing even if they would be passing it through batches or in one go specially if the coins involved

is using up erc20 then gas would surely hurt and thats why some teams does tend to sent out rewards on delay basis because they cant really just afford to sent out those free coins with higher gas which it would really

be adding up on the expense that they would take.Asking out if Airdrop and Bounties worth the work then we can at least say its a yes since there are still people who do love on wasting up their time on this venture
which does simply means that it is still worth to engage on.

Now every bounty hunter can directly make calculations in general or roughly on each bounty Allocation that has been listed on the bounty page with a predetermined time duration, so that if it is considered to be very suitable with the payment that will be received when the bounty ends, there will be many hunters entered the bounty.

There are several bounties that rewarded with tokens that already in the exchange, so the bounty hunter could calculate how much they work will be paid but also it's not the exact amount because the price of the token could be up and down. I think if bounty hunters joining a new project bounties they must have analyze the project itself before joining because there are many projects ended scam or the reward are not entering exchange after the presale.

All airdrops and Bounties are not worth investing time and efforts but airdrops of https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/wall-street-games/airdrop/ are good and worth joining. I got reward many times but not every participant gets reward as there are huge number of people who are looking for free money and reward is usually given to 1000 to 2000 participants onl. Keep trying your luck you never know what tomorrow brings for you. Bounties of Bitcointalk are usually good pay reward but mostly rewards are paid too late so you have to be patient but some are scams too so make good reserch wor before joining a Bounty program.

If that's clear, because I also always analyze every bounty that I participate in so that I can make my own conclusions before following it carefully, especially if the token is already on the exchange, this will really help the bounty participants in making a certain amount based on the allocation that has been made provided on the bounty page itself.

Bounty hunters are not always getting good payments if tokens are listed on the exchange. Because if the tokens are not given to the hunters, then what is the benefit of the hunters from the tokens listed in the exchange?  Such as MAI tokens. Now the new trend has started. Bounty allocation is being reduced whenever the project is successful and the token price goes up.

I agree with your statement that "You don't always get a good payout" when hunting for bounties, but every hunter doesn't have to equate all campaigns with the same or judge them the same, because every bounty campaign always has a different team even though it is held by the same manager, so you have to know how to sort this out, because good payouts are only for good project teams and those with good development, because if I look at the case you said, then it's not only MAI that is like that, but BEZOP in The past was the same, meaning the project was running very successfully and was listed on the stock exchange, but the hunters' pay never existed.

Yeah, they scale up the amount you would receive in terms of $ worth, no fixed amount of token/coin so the paying is kinda low with only a couple bucks per week. All the good-paying bounties and airdrops are full or limited. Thought I think bounties and airdrops are still worth as long you can join in the good-paying or cherry pick a really promising one to join in.

I promoted five different projects to get a good one that cover for the hassle on all the five projects, all other four failed this is what bounty hunters can't escape, not all projects you promoted will be very good but few good ones are still available, if you are determined and less lazy you will eventually stumble on a promising project

Airdrop and bounty is still a good job and worthy of choice, I am grateful to have known bitcointalk as a ray of light during this difficult covid19 pandemic.  Although, our selection of projects is mandatory to create valuable proof of labor and most of the time it is a disappointing scam.  But it's like life, nothing is easy for anyone who doesn't want to work hard.
No one gives you the option of working for free like here.  With a little luck we can earn money to spend in life or maintain a normal life during this pandemic.

Yes, it's obvious because every good choice will always pay very well for the duration of time we give and the payout will also be adjusted, so there's nothing wrong with bounties and Airdrops so far, because good proof of payments is still in some projects.

If you are someone who likes to give up easily then bounties aren't for you because you will be disappointed many times and there is no way to escape this even if you are a pro, crypto space is full of scam projects here and there and some bounties will look so legit in the eye only to run away with investors fund later on, I'm just saying be prepared for the worst

There are still some good projects which bounty hunters could really snip on but chances or odds on hitting the right spot is something that not everybody would able to experience on.

Worth for those people who do have some full time on dealing with bounty works and its also it isnt bad to make it as a side work for you to assumpt that it turns out to be a good one.

Depending into your own preference and time and if you do see that it isnt really affecting much of your time and those doesnt really eat too much work
then i might still considering it.

So far I'm very comfortable with my work in the real world and also in the cryptocurrency world with some that I do and one of them is working on bounties, it doesn't bother me and my time at all, because I'm not hunting for all the new bounties, but just researching some bounties that I think can be very suitable to work on, because I never waste time on unclear bounties.

If you can do good research of project, it doesn't have to be that bad. If you check all the details and experience of the dev team, you can significantly reduce the risk that the project will turn out to be a scam.
Also pay attention to who is the campaign manager. Always choose campaigns managed by experienced bounty managers.

First of all airdrops are 100% waste of time . They sound like easy money but truly they are useless. Many of them are scams and even which are true would give you pennies so they are total waste.
Bounties also there are alot of scam projects, but bounties of good projects can give you some decent amount.

Not all airdrops is a waste of time, just most because they require little or no effort so the chance you got something valuable out of it is very low. For bounties, it is completely different as if there is a bounty then it might be a good one. In the end, I think whether it is worth or valuable is depend on how the airdrops or bounties conduct. If it was easy then of course chance reward will become worthless.

you already stated that Majority of the projects you promoted are failure so meaning almost every projects are .

you have the guts to stay that failing ?

it is not laziness instead a dedicated victim , imagine fails 4 out of 5? yet determined to join bounties?

that's what you called desperation mate and i will never make my life miserable that way.

and also if you have nothing to do in life then dealing with those is enough .

There is nothing wrong to be desperate about success, if you are hungry for success you will eventually hit a jackpot one day, I don't blame this guy cos everyone has a different story in life, you can't be this committed to bounties and you sees it as living a miserable life but not him, that is the difference

Yes, I don't deny what you think, but the reality is that airdrops are still a very easy job for newcomers to access the field.
I also participated in some airdrops, even though it wasn't huge sums, I'm glad they paid it anyway. But anyway, I personally don't think it's necessary to try to make a lot of money from the airdrop, because the field is so vast and there are so many ways to generate income, dyor everything about it.

How long have you been hunting ? and have you even hit a jackpot? because the way you see things it looks like there is a place for everyone to earn that jackpot.
I can relate on this because at one chance this is also what i did in the past , but now i know that this is just wasting my time mate.
but there are still friends that earn from this .

So why every time I said people, Don't join random bounty/airdrop. before joining any bounty try to do some research. What's about the project, What is the main concept, who is the developer, Which problem solution they will provide, Is there any real-life use or not, etc? I know it is very hard to find out a legit project but it's not impossible. When you wanted to join any bounty, Try to check the bounty manager's reputation also. Because a good reputation person never will bring any scam bounty. Try to join those bounties that are managed by some good managers. It's not possible to join any bounty by reading the whitepaper, So if you follow the above tips you may get some legit bounty. But it's not guaranteed. Scammers are more powerful right now.

Maybe we start out with a pretty similar approach to the field, and when it comes to how we feel about it and know how to generate income, it feels like such a thing is really a waste of own time. There are more things to care about instead of judging whether it's good or not, mate :) . Perhaps at some point they will feel the same way you and I feel about this market.

Let others work according to their wishes at this time even though it looks wrong to some people who have experienced it, but instinctively everyone wants to try new things and make it a very valuable experience in tomorrow, so don't stop anyone in a job and give him the opportunity to do every thing he thinks is good, although he should also consider a lot of advice before doing it.

Airdrops at the moment when it comes to this program the average of the community who do not believed in this are only few, it is still the majority of them believed and participate in the airdrops, and yet when it comes into payment a lot of them got disappointed, then for the bounties it is also hard so far to determine if it is legit or not.

As most people here already said, Airdrop is waste of time. Yes, That's true. But still, there are a few legit airdrops available but for this, you need to do research. Nowadays dex exchange providing airdrop for the user. For this you need to do some swaps using their exchange, Maybe it's not so easy as most of the airdrop. But it's really worth it. DYDX airdrop huge amount of money for their user. Now I am looking for some DEX who has not yet provided any airdrop for the user. Those airdrops are really worth it.
Metamask is on my list for this now. Will do some swap using Metamusk for the airdrop.

That's an airdrop that we rarely know to get big like DYDX, there are also some Dex who run their testnet later after the mainnet launch can get tokens, sometimes many people always skip this because what I know now is that dex airdrops always testnet on their new dex, Either way, you have to try it.

Actually, it's rare that airdrops don't even know that all airdroppers know they have to swap in a certain dex to get valuable tokens, sometimes even for those who have swapped before in the last year.

There are still some worty bounty and airdrops. However, their numbers are much lower and more difficult to find. However, it is possible to earn better from here if you participate in them selectively.

There are but not so many as they seem during 2016 and 2017. Today, there's more fraud airdrops and bounties and what's worse is if they have started to ask you kyc.
You will still not able to know the project until they're done. But having your own selective choice is also good because you have a standard to follow.

Airdrops and Bounties are still popular forms of promotion in crypto. Nowadays there are many airdrops created just for the purpose of fraud, stealing information, some airdrops even force you to transfer a little gas fee to complete the task.
But considering other aspects, I think the airdrop is still a suitable form for newbies to the market. It creates an environment that can help newbies to crypto with some basic skills we should also take the time to be selective carefully before participating.

I don't think there are much less bounty campaigns than in the past. However, the form of airdrops has definitely changed. In the past, it was just sending a small amount of tokens to random addresses or to people who simply applied with their address. Now projects are task-demanding, which is not airdrop but just a kind of bounty.


It's true that the risk is always there, but by doing good research you can significantly reduce the risk of simply wasting time for promoting scammers.

It simply depends on project you are interested in to work Bounty campaign, some projects are very rewarding and some don't deserve your precious time investing. We need to do in depth  research work before we join any Bounty program or airdrop. When I draw a comparison between Bounties and Air drops, airdrops are mostly scams with few exception whereas Bounties are a better option.

This increasingly popular method takes advantage of several benefits to young ICOs and can be implemented pre or post-ICO according to the company’s strategy. The step of any bounty program is to outline your needs as an ICO. Do you need greater exposure on crypto forums or social media? Do you need code to be tested and bugs to be fixed? Which is the right method to reach the right audience? Once these questions have led you to some concrete answers, the bounty program can begin, by offering members of the general public cryptocurrency tokens to fulfill these small, basic tasks you need done.

One or two bounties and airdrops can be enough if the income can be maximized instead of having to hunt too much which in the end gets nothing, thus making time wasted to be wasted, so at least bounty and airdrop is not a problem as long as they can still be a good income for everyone.

Please teach me how to find these “one or two bounties or drops” that will 100% pay and altcoins will have a value. Teach me how to find a successful bounty with the first hit. As I am tired wasting time on crap.

I will fast forward and say that with current amount of bounties, it is very unlikely to find and bounty that will be worth doing. Doing months boring and useless tasks in social medias, or making a movie to earn several dollars is totaly not worth spending free time.

This does not determine a definite outcome in the airdrop or bounty because what we choose is random which in my opinion is good not necessarily it will pay out 100% after the first hit.

But in the bounty you have to do work on the bounty that has been listed on the exchange, it is 100% likely to pay and the rest is how the manager agrees.

For airdrops I wouldn't expect to pay but when I see a good project and launch an airdrop, it needs to be followed, if it still doesn't pay then we have to be patient.

if you are literally knows how to find one good and legit then why not right? but the problem is None of us can really look into this that close because of scammers can also pretend to be legit and since this is a Freebies as Airdrop we cannot seek for any assurance from the service we will provide towards them.
How i wish that someone can answer this legitimately but the sad part is No one does .

What is this? A super successful bounty? I have found that there five week bounty campaign here. P with current price, Legendary would get around 80 bucks or 240 if he would sell it at ATH. That is one super profitable bounty.

Or you wanted to show me just an example of a bounty which altcoin has a value? Ok. But how can I in august 2020 be sure that it is more successful than any other campaign?

I have not worked in bounties lately but I have heard that even though many bounties are useless or waste of time , there are few who gave very good returns to the bounty hunters.
So if you have time , keep working on bounties and hope they can be lot of worth in future.

Bounty hunting is not for those who are busy but for those who have a lot of free time. There is nothing wrong with participating in the bounty than wasting time. On the contrary, if some payment is received, it should be considered as extra income. There are some campaign managers like Hhumpuz, Royse777, irfan_pak10 who come up with good campaigns most of the time. These can be participated in.

That is what i was saying. You take part in 10 bounties but only 1 -2 can give you good returns. In some you wont get the tokens and in others even if you got the tokens, the coins would be worthless.

You can join all you want but of course only into those bounties or airdrops that doesnt really require too much work or even asking out some KYC which is really bullshit to say.

Talking about success rate then it is really just small because considering on how many legit projects that we do only have now then its just really small in numbers

Sometimes i could say that it is really needing up some mix of luck whenever you do get engage with bounties.You wouldnt know on what would happen next.

Depend on how skilled you are in finding one but for me? i have no Luck in finding Airdrops that worth a effort though at some pont i have gain some small amount in the past year but i realized that it is not worth a wait so i stopped seeking and focus in trading and also in Signature campaign instead.
since then my time get valued and also i am learning from interacting with other people instead of only making tasks .

Short answer: Hell no.

I think that the only profitable bounty campaign that I've seen that actually had decent rewards was the Antshares one on bitcointalk.

All the other ones completely underpay their participants. Same thing for airdrops, the effort you put in for airdrops can probably yield you better returns if you just put it to your personal growth & development.

Depends on the value of the token you received as rewards, sometimes when luck permits.
that 1 or 2 paying bounties already covered and paid the time and efforts that you spend,
even those 8 more campaigns didn't end well, but with good luck,
the payment that you'll going to receive is more than what you expect.

There are bounties who really excel from the expectations and the amount of project pumped high after the participants receive the tokens, the name above that you mentioned are managers who are concerned with the work of each participated they are after the company to pay and not to end as worthless.

Bounty programs — This increasingly popular method takes advantage of several benefits to young ICOs and can be implemented pre or post-ICO according to the company’s strategy. The step of any bounty program is to outline your needs as an ICO. Do you need greater exposure on crypto forums or social media? Do you need code to be tested and bugs to be fixed? Which is the right method to reach the right audience? Once these questions have led you to some concrete answers, the bounty program can begin, by offering members of the general public cryptocurrency tokens to fulfill these small, basic tasks you need done.

Airdrops — These have many similarities to bounty programs, but rely more on word of mouth and are, in some ways, more of a gamble for ICOs — albeit a gamble with a huge payoff. Certain airdrops could also be compared to giveaway campaigns. In order to receive tokens in an airdrop, you can stipulate that participants share a post on social media, sign up for a newsletter or help spread the word in some other way. Participants are then given free tokens, generally an even slice of the number of tokens you decided to give away beforehand.

You are right. Airdrops and bounties are good way to promote a project. Recently many bounties are being successful. Good amount payment is available from all these bounties. So airdrops and bounties are worth to work.

I think your comment is irrelevant. Because no one wanted to know the definition of bounty or airdrop. And if this article is yours, it is good and if it is not yours, it would be better to give source link.

I cant agree with a phrase that "many bounties are being successful". Scam still dominated over a legal project. If the project is on Ethereum blockchain and runs bounty you can not hope to receive a reward in most cases. With airdrops situation is even worse. Sending ERC20 tokens will be simply unprofitable and in some cases cost more than a reward that is to be send.

All social media bounties are a waste of funds. Video campaigns - they just litter youtube. All these review channels with bought subscribers. No one even watches these reviews except bounty managers. Article campaigns are often a copy/paste mix of a whitepaper, text and pictures from the web.

During last years I have seen so few good projects that ran bounty, that the number of them I can count on the fingers. They projects were cool, but the amount received was around 100-200 bucks. Doing bounties to get <500$ in a years is not worth wasting time.

64% of votes favors in worth a wok .

I have been tired of joining airdrop or maybe this is not my forte so i gave up.

Also, I am surprised that so many users think that airdrops can bring them any profit.

Most airdrops are scams or worthless projects. The truth is, airdrops do projects that don't have the marketing funding. If the project has no marketing funds at the very beginning, there is no chance that it will be successful. Unfortunately, this is the case with most airdrops.

In my opinion, it is a waste of time and littering your wallet with worthless tokens.

If they have a lot of time they can spend it in a productive way, and working with bounties and airdrop seems productive since although the success rate is very low, you don't need to invest money to work for ti, who knows, one day you'll hit the jackpot, so it's still worth a try.

Jackopt could be hit a few years ago. At the moment, airdrops are just a waste of time.

I could agree with you partially in the case of bounty campaigns. In fact, sometimes there are projects that look very good and can be very successful in the future. However, the truth is that such projects come out once in few months. If someone is patient and can find such a project among hundreds of others, bounty campains for him can be quite profitable.

The jackpot must be in several airdrops that we know and pursue as long as we are patient because we don't know which project will become the jackpot.

There are still many bounty campaigns that come every day, there are still many people doing this work maybe because they believe it can give satisfactory results, sometimes their payments are always delayed for a long time, but if it has become a habit in working on bounties for a long time then they will not stop looking for it. promising project.

I was a little offended that you did not mention such a manager as yahoo62278 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=355846). Yes, he now does not have many bounties, at the current moment not a single launched bounty. But it has a very low percentage of scammers companies.

Knowing yahoo to be one of the most popular managers on this forum not only on bitcoin signature campaigns but also in bounties too but there are managers which are really very that keen on selecting the project that they

are tending to handle which means they are very selective and if you cant find one on yahoo project then i do presume that he hadnt seen any something good but it isnt always that accurate because there are

projects in the past which did really still fails despite of being managed properly.You do know  the odds which do simply means or shows that nothing is guaranteed.

I did some airdrops before and I think they're quite good and very well rewarding but the time flies and trend changes so not all of them are worth the work.
There are bounties too that I've joined and all I can say that many of them that I've joined were rewarding too. We have difference choices in terms of the two but I think there's still quite rewarding for the both but with the few that are existing.

If you have free time, then it is obvious to try your luck through bounties and airdrop. It is much better to do something which can earn you money, rather than spend and waster time on social media. 
But if you have some better skill, then you should focus on that as bounties won't help you in long term and they are not sustainable too.

We do have our own time and effort to make and that will vary if we are really vacant or doesn't have something to do on other things which means you could deal off things which you do seem to be worth.

Don't listen out on others though and just follow on what you do seem its right but sooner or later you would really realize up on things on whats the reality with bounty hunting.

Real experience is on what people do learn on things and this way you could tell if its really worth the work or not.

In fact social media may give you good income as well if you have many followers. It can be something like endorsement from local product or something else. Of course, spending time on social media for nothing productive is a wasting time so using it for bounties and airdrop is better than just lurking other's status  :D

You are telling the truth. There are many people who are wasting their time on various social media but are not doing anything productive. It is better to use all these social media for bounty purpose. Also now good payment is available from Bounty.

You know that not all people does have a good ranking account on this forum.Starting off with newbie account wont really give out that significant rewards even though those token value arent really that having one.
Also not all would really be having the knowledge about bounties existence on the first place.For those who are knowledgeable or been aware about this market then they could really have the chance on getting some
opportunity on making profits but this isnt always the case because not all the time you would really be successful with bounty hunting but doesnt mean that you cant risk on dealing with it.

Of course, it's better to use social media to earn money than just mindlessly wasting your time in it.
However, when you open the spreadsheet of any Twitter or Facebook campaign, you will see hundreds of accounts that have been farmed and followers are fake. My point is, if your account is real, you have no chance of making good money because the account farmers take the majority and for you are left with dust.

which current bounty? are you saying that there are many of them still pays? or you are just looking for chance to bump your?
yeah they are paying but do the coin/token arrived the exchange? or just added to dying token/coin in your possession ?
but of course this is our choice if what to join and where to spend our time and effort.

I know you probably will never see this reply but im quite curious, can you point out a user or someone that did actually become a millionair from bounty hunting ? this is interesting because for most of the airdrops (if not all) you will only end up getting few bucks if you're lucky.

i actually believe that someone became a millionaire by joining bounty campaigns in bitcointalk, as i've see back in the days (2016-2018) there were bounties that gave a lot one i recall giving more than 10000$ just in signature campaign, and this is just one that i've seen by chance, someone could have done that and gotten a million dollars especially if he held all he got and sold at the highest prices.

some of my friends are still making money in Airdrops and bounties , also those group mate of mine in social media though sometimes they are being scammed yet  couple of them are making a living specially this pandemic in bounty and airdrop.
one of them also now starting his real life business because of jackpot in one of His bounty that the value of token becomes a hidden Gem.

it does say WORTH the work, so if you get a fair amount of money from one or two airdrops it's worth the work because you're basically doing nothing, some people just follow and retweet and post about celebs for nothing, and you're doing it with a chance to get paid so why not ?! as long as you have time to join airdrops just do it, it doesn't require any knowledge nor effort.

This is just another proof that airdrops and bounties are like gambling. You never know what will bring you money and what it wasting time. I have such a story too. Recently I have participated in Goma Shiba Inu bounty campaign. The tasks were easy, basically clicking and little knowledge about the project. I've sold my reward, because the project does not look like it is something special. If I am not mistaken, I've sold my rewards for less than $100. But those who hold, were much more lucky than me. Because the project was pumped and token price multiplied multiple times. If I would sell my reward right now, I would have earned about $4,500.

Following the recent developments about airdrops which is not guaranteed to earn from it at the ending after taking parts in their various media activities, they will end up building their social media pages with participants at the ends paying trash and peanuts. now talking of bounties, most at time it pays but that is dependent of the project team to put effort collectively to make the project succeed before you could sell or converts your bounty tokens to stable coin or BNB. in most scenario some project owners don't pay hunters after promoting for their campaign. 

I don't know why you say that rewards are not distributed until the project succeeds. After all, all the conditions are described at the very beginning, including the date of payment of the prizes. If you don't like when you get paid for participating in the campaign, you just don't take part in it. If the project does not want to pay bounty rewards then you have to create a scam accussation.

Yeah its been mentioned on the beginning but doesnt mean that it would be an assurance that you would get paid on the said date because most of projects do really delay it up or doesnt really have the plans to pay

up their advertisers or bounty workers and this is one of things which do suck when you do deal with bounty hunting on where you cant be sure if you would get paid or getting paid but the token do end up on having

no value thats why its up on someone discretion whether they do deal up with the risk or simply avoid it.

That is why it is important to do a good research of project before joining the bounty campaign. Of course, we will never be sure what the developers intentions are, but the better we check the dev team and the project itself, the more likely it is that we will receive the reward on time and it will be worth something after listing on exchange.
