Bitcoin Forum

Hello, I have a few questions regarding bounty managers and becoming.

Are bounty managers still in high demand? Is it difficult to become a bounty manager now and is it worth it to try to become one? Is it true that only reputable bounty managers get paid in BTC, while others get paid in tokens they are managing for?

Thank you for your help.

Yeah, But Depending on your knowledge if you want to become a bounty manager, you must know all crypto ecosystems, whether it's Defi Metaverse or something else. So as not to be trapped by projects that are not feasible.
Difficult indeed but depending on knowledge and track record, if you are new it might be difficult. but It never hurts to try, if you are worthy then the project will look for you. But for now being you are the one looking for them.
It all go back to the initial agreement, between the developer/owner/project team who will agree with a (manager). Previously there was a supply and demand that would be mutually agreed upon, regarding payment.

Anyone can get paid in btc as long as it's part of the deal.

I can't verify if bounty managers is still in high demand because we already have a lot of bounty managers and many of them are unknown to the market.

About being worth it, yes, it's worth it but it's not that easy as what you think of becoming one.

It's highly competitive from what I can see in Services section. I would say it would take a while before you even land your first management. There are plenty of reputated managers now out there and one of the best CMs is even managing the campaign I am currently at.
The only question you need to ask for yourself assuming you're trying to be one is "what makes you different from other bounty managers out there?". It's a common question I know, but from how many managers are out there, it has to be asked.

Not sure about your second question though.

it all depends on the agreement between the parties, and even the most successful bm started from somewhere, in this case you need to be responsible both to the community and to the project that you are promoting, it's not easy, there would be a desire and it would definitely turn out.

True, if there is an agreement between the campaign owner or developer and the bounty manager, then he will be paid in bitcoin.

And being a bounty manager is certainly a hard task that requires more time and dedication to deal with the stress and difficulties in managing a campaign so this is the reason why most of the bounty owners hire an experienced and reliable bounty manager. He can be in demand or not, not really matters as long as he has his own talent and skill in managing a campaign.

Popular manager : Yes
If you not popular : No

Until now, popular manager like Hhampuzz with high service quality still can be hired from the project. So, the demands still also good for people who have reputation and popular in here. If you start from zero right now, is gonna be hard for you and most the time will only offering cheap price because zero portfolio.

Thinking about being a BM? I suggest not.

Most of the reputable and known bounty managers are the ones receiving BTC-paying campaigns because serious projects are also looking for their portfolio.
If you have nothing under your name yet, what you can get are token-paying campaigns, and mostly will end up bad because they will disappear or won't pay.
But if you are serious to this path, you will start from something right? But if you have no patience, better not.
Because more than likely, the first projects that you will receive will either not pay you, or they will pay you but will end up as worthless tokens or coins.

Depends on what's your reputation in managing the bounty projects. I guess if you have a good reputation and the demand was so high. This can be seen from how many new campaigns that are coming to the market.
The competition is very strict right now for the new manager and so if you can get a campaign but the campaign was not good and what's the difference? It's better not managing a bad campaign rather than to manage a bad campaign. You can try with your effort but the result will depend with your effort.
It's true but as far as i know this depends on your contract with the team.

I don't even know if that's what project owners/devs have in mind when they're looking for someone to manage their bounty, because they might not even know what distinguishes one member from another in terms of what it takes to manage a spreadsheet, the participants, and all the payments.  I'd think having a track record would be of prime importance, but a lot of these projects are scams anyway so who knows what the underlying projects' bosses are thinking?

I lost track of how many bitcoin-paying signature campaign managers there are in the past couple of years.  There used to be at least 6-7 of them IIRC, and I think there are even more active bounty managers--plus I think the barrier to entry to be a bounty manager is a lot lower (though I could be wrong).  What I do know is that you have to have some sort of trust record on the forum before anyone would consider you for a job where you're handling a lot of funds (or you'd have to have a pre-existing relationship with the project).

The project will run smoothly when using a reliable manager. who want to be a good manager with high demand you must be trustable and have a reputation as a marketer. I saw some of the good managers get paid in BTC, but it's not always, several managers get payment with tokens maybe it could be for their investment in the future.

Not really high in demand because we are not lacking with bounty managers, they can handle as many campaigns as they want because they are working as a team now, some managers can handle up to 10 campaigns and they can still accept more, it's not difficult to be a bounty manager you just have to be well organized and knows what good submissions are like you need to be a good forum poster to trace who you can include in your signature campaign, but the most important part is you know what a good project to promote you'll have a bad reputation if you promote a scam project.

if the question is whether the bounty manager is still in great demand? Of course there are still many, because if we look now there are many new bounty managers growing and this indicates that they are still the prima donna themselves, even though if you look at the old bounty managers it seems that there are fewer and fewer who are still interested, because it is clear that the difference between the previous bounty and bounties now.
 
still tease offer past bounties because there is always a surprise behind every sale that may be obtained from the bounty or manager. because the distribution of tokens paid is not pegged to the price but to the total % of tokens created. there is a special spirit so that the project being promoted can be successful. so the token is of high value, the impact is obvious to both the bounty and the manager.

when it comes to payment to the bounty manager, it is clear that there will always be an earlier agreement before it is given to the bounty manager, so it just depends on the negotiations that take place. it is clear that experienced managers will negotiate according to what has been done so far which may always bring the project to success, will make the price more expensive than the new one, because it has proven its success.

In my opinion, a lot of people are in high demand to become bounty managers.

as to whether it is difficult or not to be a bounty manager, it depends on the skills of each person, because everyone has their own expertise,
because this is related to being a leader.

but there's nothing wrong with trying it, if you feel you already have the knowledge about how to become a bounty manager, it never hurts to try.

I cant say that there is a demand in bounty managers, as the amount of bounty campaigns has decreased greatly. No doubt there are projects that wants to run bounty, but significant part of them are scam. So managing them will be first and last managers experience.

It is easy to try to become a manager. Just open any campaign that has already ended, create your own spreadsheet and try to check how hunters did their tasks. In the end your results must be if not equal, but very close to existing spreadsheet. Managers work consist mostly of copy/paste and resistance of stupid and repeated questions in telegrams bounty group.

Managers gets paid in a way they have negotiated it with client. It can be tokens, BTC, cookies, candies, fiat or what ever agreed.

It takes a good poster and a marketer who understands the concept of how online marketing works to become a bounty manager, experience as an online marketer is a must, a manager should know how to communicate effectively because you are the bridge between the project developer and promoters, it's a full-time job and you're always on risk of losing your reputation if you happen to promote a scam project.

Since there are still bounty campaigns until now, I might say that Bounty managers are still in demand.
Becoming a bounty manager is difficult when you are starting because you have zero experience. Developers of the project would rather choose a reputable and skilled bounty manager than a bounty manager who has zero knowledge. On the other hand though, I've seen some first time bounty managers who are offering free managing in their bounty campaigns just to have a portfolio that will help them in their future endeavors.

With regards to payments in BTC, its not true that only the reputable ones are getting paid in BTC but it will depend on the conversation between the manager and the developer or marketing staff of the project.

I don't really know how high the demand for Bounty Managers is at the moment but i am pretty sure, that there always will be a certain demand for such people as we are seeing a lot of Bounties that are going on at the moment and in the past. If you want to become a bounty manager then i think it would be the best to create a thread in the "Services" subsection here int his forum and to introduce yourself, then maybe you will get contacted by projects, that want to work with you for their bounty campaign.
Yes i think it is true that there are certain bounties that are paying BTC as reward for their bounty manager, as they are also paying in BTC for the bounty participants, but i also think that it is pretty hard to become the bounty manager of such a campaign i think you have to make a name for yourself first before you get the chance to manage such a BTC-bounty.

I was a bounty manager before, but I am tired of that work. It’s really stressful and time consuming, even if there’s a team behind me helping on it. Despite the bounty that I’ve handled years ago was a success, it’s something that I didn’t want to go back doing it again.

My team and I are paid a good amount of tokens back then for my efforts as a bounty manager, but I just don’t want to do it anymore. Bounty managers aren’t perfect despite the reputation that they have. Building reputation takes time. One of the important stuff that you need to have as bounty manager is to escrow tokens. There are many projects out there who didn’t use escrow are either changing their minds or running away as scammers. That’s just my experience.

More and more bounty managers are coming to this place and yeah that's still high in demand. The most difficult thing is to build your own reputation. You have to need to become a reputable bounty manager to be able to attract the clients to use your service and so far mostly bounty managers that exist in the market already here since a few years ago and they have been building their reputation with a very long time.
Reputation is the main thing that will make the project developer wanna trust their project to you. So if you are interested to be a part of bounty manager and build your own reputation first.
Any bounty managers can accept what tokens they are wanna used as salary sometimes they are also getting paid with the stable token as well.

Currently there are two models of bounty campaigns that I know of, the first is the regular bounty campaign and the second is the service campaign, the regular campaign is paid in tokens or some are directly converted to dollars, while the service campaign is mostly paid in direct BTC, so if it's worth talking about or not against both, generally people prefer a campaign in service, because there the payment is clear and there are almost no scam projects

Yes now there are indeed several projects that pay directly and many people now want to join in such projects even though sometimes the pay is small, but they are satisfied because the results are immediately visible every week and are very different from regular paid projects.

I'm sure it's still worth it and you can try it, one of my friends is a bounty manager, yes I must admit the payment for the new bounty manager may not be as big as the old bounty manager they will be paid with coins that are worth selling at a high fee (depending on agreement) .
The thing you have to do is be patient at the start, and build the best possible experience as a bounty manager so that you are liked by many people.

Yes.

As long as that he's really into management and others are probably thinking that it's just all about all of those data that are being input on the spreadsheet.

There's more to it.

Take it to the experienced managers, it's more than that and it is because of the responsibility that you're also going to accept upon being one.

Building of reputation in the forum comes first before becoming a bounty manager, links to previous bounty campaigns managed by the bounty applicant would go a long way in convincing your employer that you are the right person for the job, though it bit tough at the beginning, however once your reputations build up many bounty manager job openings will come your way, many of the reputable bounty manager started small and became popular in the forum, though the job is highly competitive based on the good reputations of the few popular and most sought after bounty manager in the forum.

Reputation plays a vital role - the more experience you have the more valuable you are, most projects with very high standard prefer to higher bm with good track record to manage their campaign. In this forum, members prefer to join the campaign of a reputable bm than the ones with no reputation or track record.
And as for getting paid, it could also depends on your power of negotiation, your ability to convince the project team your work is worth paying for with btc rather than native token (which also ties to your experience). i think if are handling a btc paying campaign you are most likely to get paid in btc, and same as handling an alt campaign (just my assumption).
You should also note that, being abm requires dedication and hard work, not just expecting to get paid without putting a good effort.

Yes there's still a demand for bounty campaign managers because as you can see there are so many project owners launch their campaigns here and you will find multiple people handling different campaigns at the moment.



Yes its difficult to be a campaign manager because you are not only counting the output of the people who participates on your campaign you also need to do background checking if the campaign or the project handle is legit and not scam because your reputation will also ruined if the project owner scam people and will not pay their participants so best to check always the project before launching it here.


Mostly but its all depends on your negotiation and your experience to handle a campaign so make sure you have good experience so that you can also demand good payments to the project owners.

Also please do remember that projects who prefer to pay by their tokens to their campaign manager are mostly scam so beware.

There will always be new projects popping up, and they will try to promote them through bounty campaigns. Therefore bounty managers will always
be sought and needed, The problem now is that there are a lot of bounty managers who have a very good reputation. So if you are thinking of
becoming a bounty manager, your chances of getting the project are very small. Because it is certain that the project owner will prioritize
experienced people, and have a good reputation to be the bounty manager for their project. There are even new projects that appoint their own team
to be the bounty manager. So not a good idea in my opinion if you are thinking about becoming a bounty manager, because it is very difficult to
compete with experienced bounty managers. Regarding the payment received by the bounty managers, it depends on the agreement of the project
owner with the bounty managers at the beginning, so it's very flexible regarding payment and there is no guarantee that reputable bounty
managers always get paid BTC.

Yes, bounty manager is still in demand nowadays and becoming one must have set of skills on how to manage bounty and community as well.  BM can be paid on tokens or fiat, it all depends on the client's request and most of the times they got paid on tokens. To be one of the best BM, you must have a big reputation in the community.

Yes, it's not as easy and easy as they imagine to be a prize manager, it takes reporting and experience of course to be able to promote the project to be handled, and can attract investors to be able to enter and support project development, so that they become managers. Bounty of course must have enough experience and experience to be able to successfully handle a project. And regarding the pay, I hope you do a good job and prove that you can really become a manager who can work well, then you think about the pay.

If you are able not to get furious while answering 50 times in a row to a question "when distribution?", able to help in a situation, when an adult shit his pants while doing copy/paste tweets, be responsible why project failed, prefer excel or google forms to a women, if you are getting horny when someone addresses to you with "Sir," - then being a bounty manager is your dream.

that's why people are vying for service campaigns, even though getting in there is very difficult, but people are trying to be accepted in the campaign, even though to participate in serviced campaigns we have to make at least 20 posts at least, but because the pay is clearer even though it's small, so people are competing to get there

Look at the many signature campaigns that come up every week here. That reveals that more companies are bringing their businesses here and going through bounty managers to help them get hunters. Bounty managers are in high demand. And it is not that hard to become a bounty manager. But first you have to have build your reputation before anyone can trust you to run campaign for them. You have to build your reputation in the forum to attract people to trust you to handle their projects. Reputable managers call the shots and demands how they want to be paid. They do not get scared of loosing customers incase the companies refuse to agree with them on the method of payment. The less reputable managers may not be able to insist on BTC for payment like the reputable managers can.

You can check in the bounty section and you'll see a lot of active bounties, with that, I believe that it's still in demand. yes, reputation is very important but you can always build your own, about the payment, that depends on the agreement of both sides, sometimes it's in BTC and sometimes it's in altcoins or the coins of the project you are working with.

You can become one but getting your first project would be the toughest challenge that you would need to break because due to high competition then getting your first is the hardest one because you couldnt be
proven out that you are really good on community handling and as a project owner then i would definitely go to those who are known and reputable rather than choosing a noob who would handle the project
on first time in  terms of marketing or simply bounty but there are actually who do make out some considerations on choosing one.

I don't think getting your first project would be the toughest challenge considering the number of new projects that come along the way. Not many projects can afford a well-known and reputable manager to handle the project. But trying to get a legitimate project can be challenging. Most projects turn into a pattern of dead ends or total misdirected effort.
At the end of the day, if you are not too picky when you seek projects, you can end up getting burnt out in the process, which could take a lot of your time.

Becoming a bounty manager may be very worth it, moreover if the BM is paid on a fixed amount of stable coins/top coins/moreover BTC.
Very worth it.
But the question is then, is it easy and how can it be?
Of course, this is not easy. Many big Bounty Manager comes from zero, they are building their reputation, based on their reputation also in this forum, how their contribution so far in the forum, how their trust and others. Sometimes,portfolio is also very important when we are going to be a bounty manager. There are some new bounty managers here, and if they can manage the bounty very well and reputable, they may be able to get more attention in the next campaigns, moreover if the previous campaign is successful enough. Additionally, it will also depend o how you can make a good lobby and sell yourslef , your skill and ablity, your contribution here to the project developer team, so they will trsut their project to you.
Btw, Actually I never try to be a BM, but maybe at least these are what someone needs to be a bounty manager.

I think is good ideas if you wanna be bounty manager but getting trusted from project coins is not easy and how you can manage bounty campaign, right now have several trusted bounty manager and have a lot of experience, maybe some project will give them opportunity for handle their bounty than with new bounty manager less experience before, but if you can get trusted with project coins will have chance to be bounty manager but always ask escrow for bounty reward payment before you get bad reputation from bounty participants.

Bounty managers now are not in demand anymore because project managers will likely hire established and reputable managers and we have a lot of good bounty managers now, your chance to become one is if you can offer a much lower rate and can prove that you are better and can offer something new to well-established managers, you should also consider that many projects now are scam and you might end up promoting scam projects.

Becoming one of the bounty manager, you must acquired a good skills of how to manage bounty campaigns and how to be active through out the bounty campaigns. There is a great reward for such bounty manager that know how to control or direct the bounty campaign very well in a way all the participants will be rewarded according to their performance in the campaign. The person must be good in communicating to participants because the participants will be asking different questions concerning the Campaign for them not to miss any tokens at the end of the campaign. To become one of the bounty manager, you must not involve yourself in scam activities because no director want to employ scammer in any bounty campaign base on the tokens involved.

It can be said that nowadays it is very different and difficult for Bounty Managers because, as you said, they are no longer in demand and prefer professional managers,
if you have to lower the rate and the work remains the same I don't think it's a good decision,
but again it all depends on each person's decision

Everyone will definitely see and choose the pay according to the work they will do later after joining any campaign and everyone also always looks at escrow on all campaigns before joining because in the past very many campaigns that did not have escrow ended up being scams and not paying anybody.
So for now this is what everyone is always looking at so as not to feel the same as the past.

Maybe, because there are quite a lot of new bounty managers but not a few who also quit this business, maybe because of stiff competition or also because they do not have a good strategy to offer so that all they can do is handle spreadsheets only.

Why not, if you feel you have the ability and understand enough about marketing that can be given as advice on existing projects, but if you think that bounty managers only work on spreadsheets it's better not to try to be one of them

This is more of an initial deal, but usually BTC payments will be safer because bounty managers can secure funds early and can reduce losses if the project's tokens become very low in value after listing at exchange.

It depends actually on the agreement between you and the project owner if you will be paid in bitcoin or in a token. But most of the campaign managers today prefer more in bitcoin.

Well, if you wish to apply as a bounty manager, take note that its a very hard job. You should have the ability and necessary skills to communicate to your bounty members and address their individual's problems and concerns regarding the campaign. The success of the project relies much on you on how you manage it, this is why project owners need reliable and reputable bounty managers. Once the project succeeded, the efforts is mostly credited to the bounty manager and bounty hunters as well.

Becoming a bounty manager is not an easy thing, sometimes we need a team to make
our work fast to manage multiple campaigns because it is impossible to do it yourself quickly.
Bounty managers will continue to be in demand as long as there are cryptocurrency projects
that always want to promote with bounties, if you want to become a bounty manager of course you can try it.
But the initial manager pay is of course usually small unless you have a lot of experience in bounty managers.

It's not easy to be a Bounty manager, you need to care about your bounty hunters to gain some rep and respect, the only thing you can do right as a bounty manager is

1. Be picky when trying to accept a project offer, many are bad projects.
2. Safer to use escrow payment to avoid payment failure from bad teams.

If at all you wanna become a bounty Manager what are the new things you wanna renders to people that will make them trust you more than any other managers out there. Besides there series of managers out there having no job of handling bounty maybe due to their researched project from their clients they tries all their best to secure their community. They put their community first because no reason you received your payment as a manager and your participants do not received rewards after the promotion of the campaign.

If you must become one the manager out there you need to something different what others have. It done before.

Yes there's still room for bounty managers but you are competing with established bounty managers who know what developers are looking for to maximize the promotion, you have to offer something that is different from more established bounty managers, it's not an easy task but once you get two or three clients and they all become successful projects, things will get easy, the hardest part is always the starting point, especially in a competitive market like Cryptocurrency.

In my opinion being a bounty manager is not as easy as turning the palm of your hand and the process takes time and a long process to become a patented bounty manager, the point is that everything is not instant, to become a bounty manager you must be able to master all fields related to the project you manage, one of which is in the field of marketing and advertising. By mastering this, your quality as a bounty manager will increase by itself.

I think there are already too many bounty managers in this forum nowadays and some of them are not good at handling bounty campaigns most of the participants are experiencing a hardtime in terms of payment especially in the new projects without escrowed those are useless and time wasted bounty campaigns but the best bounties are those for signature campaigns which paid in BTC and other liquid cryptocurrencies. 

There is still room for every bounty manager, but as long as what they hold does not produce anything for the people who follow the campaign, then the manager will have a hard time getting a good project campaigned here, especially since there are many negative sides that they cannot avoid, such as late payments. and scam projects, this will have an impact on them, even though sometimes the scam projects are not their fault, but that's how the reaction of participants will judge negatively, because of that the developers will not give them another chance

Actually the campaign manager has a special agreement with the project team in terms of managing bounty campaigns or others so that promotions can occur here and for projects that are scams in the end it's completely not the fault of the manager although it will have an effect and assessment for the manager of the bounty participant or campaign.
So the bounty or campaign participants should also understand this so they don't misunderstand and blame each other.

It is not easy to be known and liked here on bitcointalk, it has been a difficult thing at the end of the day and we keep having some sort of problem for a long time. Bitcointalk is a place where the community is not getting together all that much, I "know" so many people here and talked with them and responded their posts a lot and they did to mine and yet we do not get together in one place at all.

If we had like some telegram community of people here, then I would understand how it could get better. So that means that you need to individually reach out to everyone, not really PM them or anything, but keep on befriending them and work with them to become more known which is very hard.

I certainly agree with this. Most projects these days prefer to deal with reputable and trusted bounty managers here in the forum. Their job is hard yet challenging but to be honest, they worked hard to build a strong foundation of trust from projects and users. There are a few trusted managers here who are well known for their promising handling of good projects.

Bounty manager is very difficult job i think. A lot of things you have to analysis before manage a bounty project. First of all you have to pick/choose a legitimate project which will be pay your management fee and hunters payment too at end of the campaign. Right now, a lot of scam projects in the market, So it’s a pretty difficult to pick right project. You have to go through the agreement with the team before you conduct a project, How will team pay as like tokens or stable coins.

Becoming a bounty manager was a easy one.But you need to find a good and legit project. You should not find the correct project.If you engage in bad project, you may earn money in bitcoin or ethereum. But you may get many peopke to trouble.Many people will inverse in a bad project and they may force their entire invested money. The participants also promote the fake project and don't earn at the end.

I don't think it is an easy task for a beginner at the same time that there are no educational materials for this field.
As for working on the forum, the most basic thing that this requires is sufficient knowledge of the forum's rules and the various systems in which it operates.

Taking into account all the projects that are released then I think good bounty managers are still in high demand, however it is difficult to become one.

After all I am sure that most of them are offered a very good pay to promote awful projects and instead of accepting blindly they need to take a look at the project and if they are not happy with what they see they reject the proposal regardless of the pay, and in order to do that you need two things, principles and knowledge about how most of the coins work, something that unfortunately is in short supply in our market.

bounty has become a situation that is losing blood. Because so many fraud projects have started to appear, people cannot get the rewards. Rewards programs that have the potential to do almost business for people are very difficult to come by right now. The best thing to do is to join bounty programs that pay in dollars or bitcoins. To create a bounty manager, you really need to have experience and good hardware. Most importantly, you should make your payments in btc or dollars.

If you're talking about altcoins bounty, yes there's a lot of scam project ever since and I think they will stay here in the forum because even if the top managers also managed a scam project, we should always do our own research before we participate.

It takes a lot of work to build your name here in the forum as a bounty manager, its not easy but if you are determined to work on this field then I think its possible. You just need to market yourself and do your best to introduce only good projects.

What i find interessant, is that some managers managing more than one bounty campaigns are newbies or members with too low ranks without any mention  that they have managed campaigns in the past or any trusted portofolio. This would rise the query of new comers to the forum and found how someone could manage campaigns.

That's why I say we don't blame the manager for everything, the agreement that occurs between the development side and the manager is also influenced by the number of participants who participate in the project, for example when manager A has 100 followers on the project, while manager B has 10 followers, then the development will automatically work with manager A, because this will affect the campaign managed by that manager

In 2018 there were not many successful bounty campaigns, even if there were only a few, you can check this again because a very gloomy period in the crypto space occurred in 2018 which could then improve again in 2019 and 2020 during the pandemic.
And for a campaign that pays BTC in the service section, I don't think it can be equated with a bounty because the payout is weekly for all participants.

1. Everyone is interested in becoming a bounty manager, but not everyone can become a bounty manager.
2. Becoming a bounty manager is not difficult, the most important thing is that you are able to analyze the project that you are going to handle. it means you can't accept random projects because currently there are many scam projects that are detrimental to many investors and bounty hunters.
3. I think the payment for being a bounty manager depends on the agreement between the bounty manager and the development team.

I'm not interested in becoming a BM, after my experience as a BM's assistant the other day, it was quite inconvenient for me, I think struggling with tons of text is sickening.
If the OP asks if BM is paid with BTC, of ​​course it can, depending on the agreement at the beginning of the contract, but most projects pay us with their tokens, which are often not listed yet on the market.

All bounty manager is not high demand. But there are few managers who are really in high demand. Especially those who have been working with successful projects for a long time. The demand of managers depends on their previous campaigns and what kind of project they have worked with before And on how investors and bounty hunters trust him.

Right, i think now it’s quite difficult to find a good bounty and mostly hunters can't believe with reputed managers conducted bounty campaigns, because of their previous managed a lot of scam/failed projects but still those managers are very successful in BTC paying campaigns where payment is guaranteed for escrow method. I agree with you right now just a few managers in demand of bounty campaigns.

It is still in high demand judging on the altcoin and token section of the forum because there are new threads that are being created every single day. I am not a bounty manager but I know what a bounty manager do and by that I can say that its difficult because you are handling hundreds of participants.

You need to scan every profile to see if they are qualified and after that you need to input data's in the sheets. You also need to respond on the groups if they have questions. Checking post and other stuffs are also needed. It is not true that only reputable managers get paid in btc but it depends on the owner of the project if what payment method he prefer but it can also be up to you if what coin you prefer but usually a bounty rarely pays in btc.

I don't think there's a big demand on Bounty managers, there's a lot of new bounties and the bounty managers' accounts are newbies only. reputable or not can get Bitcoin as payment it depends on their agreement.
Yes, Agree. being a Bounty manager is not an easy task. time-consuming during checking weekly.

There's always room as long as you are capable and up to the challenge of being a bounty manager

I don't have much experience as a bounty manager I leave the answer to those qualified to answer this question, all I know if you are interested and you think you can then go for it


It's between the bounty manager and the project developer usually the bounty manager will not announce it but the Bounty manager prefers to accept Bitcoin or other tradeable coins.

I am not sure if it worths it neither. I mean you could get paid like 500 bucks if you are a good manager, and that is per week, and you could have like few projects at the same time, so it could be 2k+ per week if you are good at what you do. All those huge names make that kind of money, and that is a good money, everyone would love to have that kind of money.

However, in order to do that, these people worked tirelessly, they gained enough trust, they worked for cheap and did all of this insane work for near free prices or low token in return type of deals. But at the end of the day we would need to spend maybe years before we can reach there. Not sure if that worths it.

As long as bounties continue to exist, there will always be high demand for bounty managers, but only those reputable and trustworthy managers will be very in demand and mostly hired. And being a bounty manager is never an easy task because the success of the project is always at a stake so you should always be responsible in managing the campaign well, as well as your relationship to all of your bounty hunters. And for you to be an effective bounty manager, you should always recognize the efforts of your team because that will count to the success of the campaign. And with time and experience, your journey being a bounty manager will always be tested.

However, getting paid in bitcoin is always the choice both from the project owner and bounty manager.

When you are tending to start a bounty manager kind of career then this is something thats really hard specially on starting because no one would really trust you up even you are really that trustworthy or legit.

It would really be normal that projects would really be looking after with those reputable managers which would be their main choice which means that marketing yourself on your first project should
really be that on aggressive manner if its really that needed.You do need to convince that someone would really be needing your service.

Well, from what I see, being a bounty manager is not easy. When you are entrusted with managing a project, you have to consider many things, such as what projects are being developed, how to pay, and many other things. In addition, you need to look for projects that actually pay, if necessary, use escrow so that you are more trusted because this will concern your reputation later. If you're a new bounty manager and promote a scam project, it's going to hurt your reputation, and could keep you from getting your next job.

Currently, there are many professional bounty managers who are very trusted. I firmly believe that from the beginning they became bounty managers to become trusted people it was a very difficult road. they sometimes face arrogant teams, scams, and sometimes their own members become opponents for them. sometimes they get bad words. but they try to hold on until they find a quality project, and get them to this point. Well, being a bounty manager is very difficult. if you want to get started, start looking for a good project that needs it, and apply as a bounty manager.

I feel experience matters but every Bounty manager starts as a newbie bounty manager so you can also be a bounty manager but I must say most of the project dev wants to work with the experience bounty managers so that they won't face any issue. As a newbie BM, you will have to work hard to make your reputation and you can understand in the starting you would not get easily good projects and payment in BTC all depends on the agreement between you and the project dev.

You have to know that their is a margin between manager and participants via payment, manager payment is negotiable while participants payment is determined by the owner of the project, so manager have the right to decide to receive payment with the token of the payment and have the right to receive payment with bitcoin, so participants only base on the decision of the project before been selected to the campaign.

It is not an impossible task. But what catches my attention most in the bounty department is the presence of new membership or low ranking campaign managers. Some of them run more than one campaign at the same time. I wonder how these people were able to assume these tasks, and how the owners of the projects were able to find them, even though they do not have enough experience with the forum rules or managing campaigns.
I doubt that there are those who offer these services in another place outside the forum.

Not all bounty managers need an assistant, especially if he is very experienced in handling the latest bounties and usually the managers also have their own friends who can be invited to be their assistants.

I don't really like the bounty manager as a beginner because it reflects that he is not that old and experienced in holding bounties even though it's only an account that was deliberately created to handle bounties.

Of course, always experiencing something unpleasant is something that you may have become accustomed to, but with the passage of time, you will understand and give meaning to everything you will receive and do.
because the more you continue to do what you are doing, the more you will be able to sort out which bounty jobs will be accepted and which will not.

by always doing well and looking for partners to help who are also commensurate, so that it can ease the work of controlling each bounty that is completed accurately and on time, of course, it will be taken into consideration by those who have projects to always make BM which is highly coveted, because the work that is charged quickly and on time and able to solve every problem appropriately, and there were no many complaints.

I also strongly agree with the friend above that it takes a lot of time to pass so that it can become a preferred BM, both by bounty participants and those who have projects, it must be remembered that good bounty participants will also bring the project to be known and many investors are interested, but good bounty participants will also see BM that can provide something commensurate in return.
although now maybe the bounty calculation has been pegged to the value of $ for each job, actually the good thing is that the coin payment given to BM is wiser, because there will be a great desire from BM to be able to succeed every bounty he holds, if it has been pegged to $, the quality will be different.

I will not say here that the time for a short Ashikana debut here is an easy task for him so I don't think there is any educational benefit for the jacket.  I think he needs to have an idea about what works in the system and if he has an idea about this then he has to face a lot of problems.

To become a bounty campaign manager, good trust is needed. because trust can give good results. and I think reputable bounty managers already have the trust and experience and have a lot of followers so that reputable managers can determine the offer in terms of payment. maybe you can easily become a bounty manager but you will have a hard time getting the trust of altcoin developers.

Bounty managers are always in demand cause new altcoins are laughing everyday. Need Bounty manager to promote.
Of course, its difficult. You may see some Newbie managers here but they are experienced enough, just create new id for promote project.
For get hired, You have to gain trust from project team as well as need skill too. otherwise Here's no lack of bounty manager.
Payment depends on project and its team. Team always want to work with experienced reputed  managers. So reputed managers have options to take project which pay only btc, usdt and refused projects with token payment

Being a bounty manager is not that difficult, but when you run it it will always be difficult, not to mention getting the trust of everyone including altcoin developers who sometimes also want to make special rules for certain things so that nothing is easy that can be done by anyone. because it is also related to making money.

If you are looking for something to become a bounty manager, then I think you need to be well prepared in this market so as not to make mistakes when approaching projects. It's okay to say it's cool or easy because this is everyone's ability to follow me. If you really think that's the goal, there are some examples like becoming a bounty in this space with some BM. It has taken many years to connect projects and gain good evaluation trust among stakeholders. But there are also BMs that come straight from the project team, so there are many different approaches and self-experience in a way to understand your goal.

When a manager manages a bounty he has to be careful everywhere if he wants to continue this work for a long time. Because building reputation is not a small task, if he cannot work in a professional way, he will not be able to continue this activity for long. Currently, there are a lot of bounty managers in this forum whose forum account rank shows that they are new to the market, and most of these bounties fail. Because projects that are solid they must hire a reputed manager, because they know how to manage their bounty successfully with a reputed manager.

There are three steps to becoming a bounty manager including managing paid campaigns in BTC:
- Services
- Reputation
- List of portfolio projects

If you are just starting the step of becoming a bounty manager, then making services  (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=52.0)on forums or outside forums (personal website, etc), increasing your reputation, then you will get the first offer to manage bounties.

It's not easy to be a bounty manager, you have to build your reputation slowly, be more selective in choosing bounties who want to use your services. keep in mind that bounty managers who accept BTC paid projects today have experienced grueling struggles.

And to this I cannot help to think that it was about time, people participated in those programs knowing that for every five projects in which they participated they would be lucky if they were paid at two of them, now that the ratio has got even lower now people are rethinking about the viability of participating in those bounties when they are not paid for their efforts most of the time.

This in return creates a vicious circle, as the less bounty hunters there are to promote those projects the less bounty programs appear which reduce the number of bounty hunters again and so on and on, does this means that bounties will disappear? I doubt it, but at least they will never be as popular as they were during the 2017 bull run.

Very hard to become a successful bounty manager. Now most of hunters joining only Top Bounty managers Bounty while other recieve very low engagement.
New users can get paid in Usdt or Btc but should proved to be a loyal and honest to bounty project team.

Indeed, this step must be done so that your reputation is seen by those who are looking for offers as a bounty manager, not only that now there are many more powerful competitors but if the OP has good skills and also greatness in this field then make it on the service board about your promotion it's much better and more people see your offer.

For the OP about the payment in advance I think how about the deal but the average bounty manager is now payment using BTC, USDT or other popular coins.

Needs an assistant or not for a bounty manager, i think it’s not depend on the bounty managers experienced. Because who BM managing a couple of bounty projects at the same time when it’s very difficult to maintain as like they have to update spreadsheet weekly also have to assist a lot of hunters. So, here a manager can't handling easily one more bounties when they need to hire assistant.

The work of managing bounty campaign is not a walk in the park! Looking at the few bounty managers that are effective and popular, you will see that their work ethic is very strong. Bounty managers are self driven and demand high standard of operation from themselves and those that they work with. I think nothing is impossible if one put his mind into one's objectives! If you feel strongly about becoming a bounty manager, please go for it!

Yes they are, there are so many projects that are waiting to be promoted and they may need someone to manage the campaigns. Just look at bounty thread and there are lot of campaigns in here from the same bounty managers, maybe there will be a new campaign for more diversity.

Being bounty managers are not just simply checking the participants to be eligible for the reward and stuff, but you need to know about the project you are managing on. You don't want to get flagged by default trust members just because you are promoting scam projects without having some knowledge before, it's always worth it to become one but make sure don't be an ignorant about the project.

It's obvious how those projects hire new members to manage their different channels/campaigns. Simply because they are fail projects.
What i care about is how those fail projects found those managers? Someone who thinks to manage a bounty campaign in bitcointalk should at least know the minimum about how things work here and that a newbie can't satisfy him by all means. How they have encountered at first place?

There are many reputable bounty managers in bitcointalk, if you intend to become one, then you should be responsible, hard-working, multi tasking, and can be trusted enough just like so many trusted bounty managers here. For me, being a good manager is a plus factor to the many projects out there since they are looking for a manager that could make their project broad and to be known, because there are also managers that can't be relying on such that the bounty could look so lame and boring, even updates isn't good.

For sure it will be more than doing spreadsheet, counting posts, communicating with the team, if it is done out of the forum. I had seen in freelancing sites that this is somehow similar to digital marketing which is relatively a large field to be honest.
In Fiverr, some are even doing it for lower price.

Well, if you can be popular and reputable like Hhampuzz or Yahoo, then why not?  But being a bounty manager is certainly a hard and tough task. You can be an organized manager at first, but later on you start to panic when your team members are raising problems about the project you are working, so it should not be. This is the reason why project owner or developers always chose bounty managers who have a lot of successful experiences in managing a bounty because the job is really not easy. And most of them are highly paid in bitcoin because of their hard work and determination to make the campaign ends up a successful one.

# Of course there is a demand for Bounty Manager, and it is increasing day by day.  As the cryptocurrency world expands, new projects are coming to the market and bounty managers are needed to market them.
# Not only good managers, the issue of paid depends on the contract.

Currently there are still many enthusiasts who want to become bounty managers, but in this case we must have honesty in order to be trusted fully by the team, then in this case only certain users can manage a project and this offer is also very limited, but for the payment depends on the agreement of both parties because part of the bounty project is paid to the manager in USDT, and there is also in the form of BTC, if you want to become a bounty manager maybe you can try to offer yourself to the team that manages a project.

because today there are so many professional bounty managers, all you need to do to become a bounty manager is to find trust. without trust, it is very difficult to become a bounty manager, and at worst you can become a scam suspect. besides, many skills you have. I agree with the statement that bounty managers don't just calculate, and manage spreadsheets. However, the bounty manager also needs to have the ability to screen quality projects that he will present later. To compete on this, you may need to find a project that does bounty advertising and uses escrow. it will increase the quality of your trust a lot. Well, initially to become a bounty manager, you need the trust of many parties.

while the demand is increasing yet the opportunity of being scammed is also present as there are completely too much trash in Bounty world nowadays ,not like in the past that there are more than 50% are paying  but now? we can assume that it is lucky if 20% of them are going to pay according to what is promised but i am sure that only few have been getting their Bounty on time and also in exact amount .

yep bounty manager is still in demand because there's alot of crypto project emerging everyday in the market.  But usually they're looking for a perfect user that can handle their project, i mean even not reputable as long as it has past experienced and good records when it comes handling campaign.
especially thos who are paying crypto with a value for example bitcoin. Because for sure they will choose a good user that can provide portfolio with their previous works.

It's hard to believe and it will be doubtful if you are a new bounty manager and newbie, because people will judge based on rank, reputation and also have experience or not, and if not there will be a lot of questions in it.

and even though rank is not that important, but at least people will judge based on rank because if the rank is high people will judge from time and experience which must have been a long time and has a lot of experience.

Do you know the project owner? How many project teams do you currently know? Do they believe in you? How many followers do you have so that the success rate of the project you are promoting will reach the target?
Being a bounty manager is very easy, but what is difficult is getting the trust to campaign for projects from the team.

Bitcointalk rank certainly helps a lot, but it's not the most important thing. I think that the acceptance of tokens and not the BTC fee would be a great help in obtaining projects. Also, the very marketing skills and cleverness in looking for new projects are very important. And patience at the beginning, because it will take a while before building a reputation.

Even if you know the team personally from the project, there can be no guarantee that they will offer you for a bounty manager job, they need a bounty manager with the potential to raise the project's rank above other project competitors.

As much as possible not limited to the number of followers to support the successful development of the project being promoted, we must make a service for good management before promoting any project.

It is difficult to repeat a golden year like 2017 in the crypto space because all developers already know how to develop new tokens and there are still many scammers who are active so they always take advantage of the opportunity to develop as many trash tokens as possible as a trap for everyone, even though their target is investors. mostly inexperienced in the crypto space.
