Bitcoin Forum

After running several bounty campaigns I have noticed that they only attrach bot accounts, multiple fake accounts controlled by one person or low quality accounts that can not even give adequate comments - it is not the same as it used to be back in the days in 2018. Where has all the quality crowd gone?

The only reason why it attracts most low-quality accounts or multiple alt accounts is due to the project they are trying to promote.
What I see most of the bounties there are fake coins or tokens or ICOs with no value and most of them are scams.
That is why it's not worth the effort to promote. Unlike before most of the bounties that I see are real and surely it has a value after being listed on exchanges and the project is serious, unlike these days.

I see your point, but it also feels like the crowd has moved away - there were tons of hyped scam projects in 2018 - and yet there were a lot of support. It feels like crypto fans have changed the platform and here bounties are only crowded by  fake account

A lot of it just has to do with a change in how people consume content. It seems the majority of activity for many coins and tokens tends to take place on Telegram, Discord and Twitter these days, with forums such as these increasingly becoming a niche for discussion. As such, you're just going to get fewer people, since it's only going to be a percentage of those people still actively using the forums who would sign for a bounty in the first place.

Bounty programs, their time has passed, at least in the most common form that has arisen in 2017-18. thanks in large part to fake accounts. The reason why they still exist is that new "projects" (if we can call them projects) are mostly naughty and worthless. they are started without real capital, so it is easier to offer worthless tokens with an inflated value just to raise any dust around them.
as projects do not have any basic value, nor do they pay for promotion with real value, the current bounty program mode is their only option to be visible.

a good portion of the responsibility for the poor criteria and quality of the participants in the bounties is on the backs of campaign managers. There are more and more of them, they lower the price of work and accept every new project, without special checking and research about it. with the low cost of running a campaign, comes lower quality, hence the tolerance for fake accounts.

This happens in every business when just start there will be more quality activities but when the setting is overcrowded there will be a lot of people trying to manipulate the system to their own benefit and when things are at this point it's the bounty manager that needs to step up their game.
If they step up their game and the bounty bot sees all their effort wasted they will quit at some point.

There is still countless fake projects buddy, even in the year 2018, there is a fake project in which the dev team runs away with investor funds.

I think so and a decentralized bounty system will never stop these bots on joining this campaign since most of the bounty manager allow newbie or low rank member to participate on bounty campaigns especially on social media campaign even though most of this bot social media account is just dummy and no value in promotion. Bounty manager is not checking thoroughly participants account due to the volume of participants that’s why it’s tiring do bounty campaign. Campaign is very ineffective that’s why it didn’t attract investors nowadays compared before.

Most of them either got disinterested after farming an account by low-quality posting became useless after the merit system was introduced, is what I assume to be correct.

Previously multiple accounts used to plague the bounties and bitcoin signature campaigns. Many of them were caught and tagged with negative trust to disqualify them from current and future campaigns. Additionally due to the altcoin tokens becoming worthless and majority turning with non-payment or vanishing into thin air and so on, the few honest bounty hunters who were there also started losing interest and grew frustrated at the current set of affairs.

The quality crowd was therefore gradually moved to bitcoin paying campaigns.

Nix, the bounty scheme is still full of fake projects or coins as said above. The problem is some bounty managers don't check on the project they advertised a year later. and I believe what reduces the number of fake projects is IDO but there are still some fake projects doing the same previous ICO in another style.

Note : If a fake account participates in a bounty campaign, the duty of the manager is to do his job.

IDO was making KYC verification as a mandatory for the any ICOs that wanna be listed or launched through IDO platforms. The problem was if it's not all of IDO platforms are implementing this. IDO platform like pinksale or something else are still allowing the ICOs creator to launch the sale without even doing KYC verification but it seems like that there are more and more parties that were doing verification to the team but yeah we are in the bearish market.
The demand for the team to run the bounty program was also following the market trend as well. You must not forget this. Last year there are so many legit bounties. Doing filter to the bot accounts have become the manager's job.

We're in a bear market mate also i don't know if you were living under a rock but  the forum member count and activity have dropped significantly since 2018.

Dozens of projects are released every day. The vast majority of these projects are trying to come to the market for purely fraudulent purposes. Inevitably, they open topics in the bounty section. Afterwards, it disappears from the market by saying that it is the profit we can collect. As a result, bounty hunters do not get a return and their efforts are wasted. Therefore, people who constantly bounty began to disappear from the market gradually. Many bounty teams now guarantee rewards and pay that way. This does not correspond to serious figures. However, participation is not as high as it used to be. That's why the bounty started to disappear slowly.

Maybe the bounty campaign process is getting easier, and that's why many people make bots or altsaccout accounts. Although it's not what it used to be when bounty campaigns scammed hunters and didn't pay, I still see some projects that have had very successful campaigns, nowadays as we have access to a wide range of knowledge. different I find the bounty less attractive, there are many ways to make money with this space, like testnet, p2e,... but anyway, it's not dead and some people are still satisfied with this work.

You are totally right, even i had join this platform in 2021 but i had checked previous bounties and which were really good in term of profit for hunter, bounty manager and also for the platform too, but now as you said people are making more than 1 accounts to earn more, therefore they are not able to give full time on single account. Therefore to save time they uses bots, and some sort of techniques to do the work, or they just copy the posts and start repeat posting it, which is also not good for platform.
3 days ago, a manager shares a entry of video in which a small child (may be around 12 or 15) was making video on behalf on someone because the gardian know that, if he/she reveal face here, will get caught,
So do less but do good.  ;)

To this I will add that there was in fact a small crowd of quality posters that were interested in new altcoins, as it was not rare back then for their bounties to increase in value significantly to the point many of them made many times what a bitcoin campaign would pay them, but when we add that most altcoins nowadays cannot offer anything remotely close to that and that the majority of the bounties do not pay their participants anything at all before disappearing then those people have moved on as well from those bounties.

Campaigns that pay in useless coins are not worth it. I could say bounty hunting is dead. There were good projects before that pays good but that was not the case anymore. You're also competing against bots so less reward for you. You aren't also guaranteed anything if a project fails. You'll most likely get useless tokens that will only flood your wallet. If you're not using both, maybe you'll get like 1 good project in like 6 months.

I can see bounty hunting becoming obsolete in the future unless something changes (Like changing the payment method to actual coins that has value).

Every day there is a new project launched and for that project to build a community, they will always need bounty hunters. Quality is not needed for social media campaigns but it is required for articles, videos, and signature campaigns. Bounty managers are responsible to maintain that quality but shit projects do not want quality to promote themselves they want quantity and this is the reason bots and bounty farm accounts are more common today. It all depends on how a project wants to promote itself and most projects are now focused on cashing the hype rather than creating hype.

Nowadays its hard to find a legit bounties that will likely give you you a coins with value. Because many projects now are scam so its not surprising if majority of those users participating in bounties are low accounts. Plus thats the only choice left for accounts who didnt rank up after merit system is implemented or got red tagged. To make their accounts still useful, joining in bounties are their chance to possibly earn if they find a good project.

Honestly, I'm still new here.also don't know whether the current bounty is still profitable or not when compared to previous years. but for me personally there is an exception only to join project that are managed by a trusted bounty manager.

Looks like the bounty can also enter its saturation period, I've been following the bounty since 2017, when we were at the peak it was very crowded, now I really don't see those who enliven it starting from 2020 they disappeared, not only participants but some legendary bounty managers too disappeared, I hope they can come back this year, I don't understand why they have to leave the bounty.

In my opinion, the current bounty campaigns are junk and worth nothing. most of the projects that launch the bounty program come from junk ICO projects and have no capital to develop the project and they need community attraction, unlike projects sponsored by IDO, IEO others

Choosing projects managed by a trusted manager can reduce your risk of getting scammed but still there is no guarantee that it will give you the return you deserve. Besides participating in bounty campaigns, I think you can refer to testnet, retroacitve. These are the forms that are gradually replacing the old bounty campaigns and have significant profit potential.

There are more participants compared with a few years ago when you will be rarely seeing people use bots. This caused by the bullish market was triggering so many social media participants to joins. Some bounty may still worth but i can't deny that if some are not worth to be joined. The bounties are not yet dead as more bounties are still coming with various mechanism like stable token payment or token payment but it seems like that managers need to put more restriction in the social media bounties as these being used by some participants do spam.
I see that so many spam that didn't needed happened and that's why a better requirements must be needed to prevent these spam accounts.

Left already. Those quality one earned already from previous bounty season and now become a trader and investors now. They gained enough to stop bounty hunting. Well thats could be the reason since the one left are the bots and if not bot, a total newbie whom cant be called a qualified hunter for promotions. Im afraid only few left on the real marketers.

I reject your point mister, there are many projects that launched bounties in the past and are big in the market today, they raised a hugh amount of money and nothing stopped them, the trick is choosing the projects wisely, alchemy, cartesi, Ferrum, HEX and so on did bounties in the past, I was so unlucky but my friend joined all and made good rewards.

For now, the bounty is not dead, although at first many did not give good results, but many bounty managers currently use the escrow system, so that payments seem to be far from fraudulent. and it can be seen that currently there are more and more bounty participants, even though the rewards obtained are not as big as last year, but at this time it is still worth it in my opinion if it is practiced. especially if the bounty manager often has successful projects, more and more participants will register if it is not limited

You have told the reason yourself as why the bounties are useless for both the bounty hunters and the project owners. Since there is no quality work being done by the bounty hunters, the project usually gets no marketing or investment. For this reason, many projects are unable to gain the investments. Also the project onwers are not willing to spend the money on bounty hunters becasue they feel that thier investment will be in vain.

The reason why bounties are so messed up isn't because of low rewards its because many don't get paid and some projects even turned scams, my bounty advice is know who you choose to follow, the most important part is the bounty manager you choose and the quality of the project you choose to promote.

Several participants here active on signature service bitcoin campaign with weekly payment and you can see their signature code, but I don't agree with your opinion bounties are dead because have several potential bounties campaign right now still paid. But need waiting with payment distribution not faster like 2016 or 2017, few days after bounties ended payment distributing and coin listing on exchange market and usually on forkdelta. I am still active with bounty altcoin campaign and some time on service bounty signature depending with much reward allocation and for bounty altcoin I am looking for with escrowed payment.

because indeed when there are more and more scam projects, I think the bounty hunter will also work as he pleases. because they are also not so sure will be paid or not at the end of the campaign. so they work as they please.
The quality of the manager is also related to the quality of a good project. it will also determine the eligible campaign participants. There will be a price and there will also be quality, I'm sure the bounty manager also thinks so.

The bounty is still there but the reward is not as big as before, I think it's back to the bounty manager because he has strict rules regarding multiple accounts, we entrust the bounty to the bounty manager

Escrowed bounty campaigns have erased the doubt and fear of not getting paid and its good to see many bounty managers taking this path as well, this will encourage bounty participation, I advise you guys to stick with bounties that use escrow, getting paid is assured.

It is true that in the sector of the altcoin bounties it is really hard to find really good bounties nowadays. The problem is that the projects that are already in demand and that are already in the focus of investors and VC's don't really need a bounty because their private Sale and public sale will be sold out anyway. That is the reason that 95% of the altcoin bounties are from meme-coin that no one wants and no one needs or from other copy projects that are just not in demand.
That being said, from time to time there is still a good altcoin bounty available too. More than a year ago i was part of the Signature Bounty from Radix and there i earned more per week then i do now with my BTC paying bounty. So it is still possible to find good altcoin bounties in here.

most of the bounty hunters you are looking for have found other places to make money, maybe they are now successful in trading, staking, and others. seeing so many bounties being scams nowadays, I think it's a pretty good decision.
for now, there are so many new accounts trying to massively promote the bounty project. I see that very many newbies do the same. Well, if it's controlled by one person, then the main goal is to promote, but I think the way is wrong. Therefore, some people prefer bounties that have escrow, or bounties with limited participants. it's more secure, and I think the bounty manager did some research before accepting entrants to get them to do the promotion.

Although many bounty campaigns have ended in scams, that doesn't mean the bounty is dead now. Requires caution in choosing a good
bounty campaign, as you said there are still participants of the bounty campaign, because we still find good bounty campaigns if we look
for them properly. Although it must be admitted that currently the pay from the bounty campaign is very small, at least it is still a good choice
for side jobs. So make sure to choose a bounty campaign that uses an escrow system, then study the track record of the development team,
and my suggestion is to choose a bounty campaign that uses a bounty manager who already has a good reputation in this forum.
And don't get our hopes up too high on the bounty campaign, because sometimes the results are far from what we imagine. Therefore,
don't focus too much on earning from the bounty campaign.

Maybe those who are qualified already have better and more worthy jobs to do than have to take care of the bounty which in the end can be a scam so that there will be a lot of people who will blame them, even though the performance of these quality people is actually not that much different from people today, it's just that in terms of responsibility maybe they can make a difference and in 2018 there were also many failed bounty campaigns and scams due to the bear market conditions at that time.

That is why, as person who run a bounty you must have the ability or strategy to be able to choose qualified participants who can have a good impact of the promotion made, unfortunately because no guarantee will get good results from bounty then you will always find multi accounts because participants hope get more by using many accounts.

The bounties are not dead but still running now. Although it uses a different name, its purpose is the same as before.
About the participants, I think there were many new people, and not bot, well, some of them are bot but we are hard to check one by one because there are too many of them who joined as the participants.
One trend is to show up, gain attention from the people, and slowly increase and reach the peak while many other similar projects are launched and hope that they can get the same attention from previous projects, but the trend is almost down and that will replace with the next trend.
The bounties will follow that, whether we know or do not know so the bounties will continue.

Bots and plagiarism was a problem then as well. In fact at some point they were in this forum farming accounts. I think that you are just paying more attention to it this time. Most twitter accounts used in bounties were desinged for only that, most youtube accounts were crap, and translations were low effort if not even made with google translate. Paraphrased articles/reviews etc. Not to mention the multiple telegram accounts posting nonsense.

Only very limited projects still use bounty hunters to promote their projects this day and most new projects are from developers that aren't ready to spend a dime, many are looking for free promotions and paying with their shit tokens in return which is why it's very good to be picky when looking for projects to promote.

Although there is something we also need to understand about project of nowadays being bounty is that during 2017 to 2018 the population then that was promoting project were very minimal and there was not lot of hunters also people have little knowledge about bounty's so it pays then but today we can many users unlike the newbies anymore focused on to join bounties at last they got paid with the project token. This could be the cause of fake account, multiple account ect just focusing of accumulating much rewards to be able have something good due to much applicants.

i don't think anything changes or have effected or affected bounties. Statistically from early 2021 to 2022 currently there have been good bounties but since from late 2018 to late 2020 there have been numerous scammed projects.
you can also make use of thisthread (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=83.0)

That's real

The bounty is still there, but the people we know the legend of the manager as well as the number of bounty participants have disappeared without any news. It is certain that the bounty atmosphere this year and in the future is very different when compared to 2018, there are many things that are different, but it is not as good as 2018, although there are few competitors, but we also lack well-known manager bounties, so some new managers promote low-quality projects until don't pay. This is the current state of the bounty.

I don't think they are the new managers. maybe because the accounts used are new, but it doesn't prove that the manager with the new account is new to the forum.
Managers with popularity in the past are also still holding current projects. you can see it in the altcoin bounty thread. In fact, in the current condition, I think the bounty project is better. many of the managers who apply for escrow. even though the reward wasn't that big, it looked like it paid off. compared to a few years ago, we saw a lot of bounty projects but a lot of them were scams.

I haven’t been active in bounty campaigns lately. Only the signature campaign is the one that I am active right now. I’ve been focusing more in being a KOL and ambassador of multiple opportunities, which in fact have compensated me much better and fairly than most of the bounty campaigns. And also because of that, I had a chance to participate in various private sale campaigns even with just small amounts of allocation rather than what the VCs are capable of.

Regarding to the question about “are bounties dead?”. Not really.

Only a very few percentage of bounty programs are paying very well as long both the project and the bounty manager are reliable, honest and trustworthy. Every bounty campaign has risks but more on the time and effort that we have. However, we always have to acknowledge the fact that these bounty campaigns aren’t giving any promises or guarantees that they could be successful, paying us fairly, getting listed, etc. These are the risks. But if you are willing to take the risk, then that’s on you.

There are also good companies, I would not say that the era has passed, it's just that there are a lot of really bad projects now, they repeat each other very often and you have to think for a long time whether to take part or not.One thing pleases that proven managers still lead good projects.

Probably the most serious disadvantage of Bounty Campaigns is that you do not know the exact reward in tokens you will receive, because the total number of tokens is divided by all participants and whether you can then sell these tokens on the exchange. Or you will miss a high price, or the price will initially be small, or the token will not be traded on the exchange.

The situation went worse. Not just to have fake and multiple accounts joining the campaign but the project itself does not have such value. Sad to say that most of the bounties now are worthless and they don't care about these bots and fake accounts joining them, helping them to promote their project as they are benefiting from them.
Not yet to say to was dead but if this will continue, I'm afraid this will lead to that way and only old projects will stay.

They are all gone already.

Maybe they see that the time that they are spending in promoting projects in bounty campaigns isn't worth it with the money that they are getting. Most of the bounty campaigns are ending up either the team not paying the bounty hunters or the token of the project doesn't have any value at all. On the other hand though, I'm not saying that bounty campaigns are dead because if it is then there is no bounty campaigns that are being organized in the bounty section but until now there is so its safe to assume that it is still alive... well kinda. I'm not joining into bounty campaigns (altcoins) for a very long time already but its good to see that it is still there.

Not dead yet but it seems you have been running the  bounties created by garbage project. In my opinion that if when you are running bounty as a manager and it's your responsibility to think the right metrict to prevents the bots to join in the campaign. I see that there are so many legit bounties are still exist till today even some are moving to use native coin or stable tokens as payment as well. It's not easy for bounty to die. The same thing already said by people during 2019 - 2020 and it's still alive.
This will remain forever as long as crypto exist but the only big problem is how to know which was legit bounty

Personally I find it amusing, the OP seems to treat this as some sort of mystery when we know what happened, bounty campaigns in general stopped paying bounty participants long time ago.

When only one in ten, and I am being generous, of those campaigns pay you then what is the point in participating in so many campaigns when the pay you will receive is very low compared to the effort? So it is obvious the vast majority of the people that used to like bounties simply gave up since the chances they will get paid are so bad.

There are many problems affecting the bounty campaign since past years now and here are a few.

1. Many Spam and bot accounts.
2. Too many shit projects from devs that are not serious.
3. So many Scam projects looking for ways to attract investors.
4. Most projects won't give a damn after the bounty campaign end, they mostly cheat hunters too.
5. Rewards from bounties aren't fitting the hassle.

its depend on how much participants join to bounty campaign , and also each participants must collect stake as much as they can to get more reward than someone else.if we met campaign that set limitation for each part , maybe we could simulation for how many reward we could receive, but unfortunately less manager do this. joining in bountty campaign need our spirit and we should give up when we see alot people join meanwhile allocation very low.,we dont know what will happen in market, maybe its token price could pumped hardly and we get good amount reward.

Scam projects made it worst. There are good managers in the bounty section but sometimes they cannot assure that it will be successful. Some bounty project made it look real that even doing our best digging about it will not work.
Then, there are those who made good income back then when ICO is in the trend and paying great with all the bounty hunters, but they abused it by creating more accounts even though it's just a single person controlling them all. That will not be helpful at all. They are trying to scatter the good news but it won't work if that kind of advertisement is done.

I see that preventing bots is not difficult. The Bounty manager can create a weekly form, in which the participants send their work, or through the form to join the campaign, he can put a math question or a captcha, and from this, he will be able to make sure that the participant is a real human or a bot. I agree with you that the biggest problem is choosing a legit bounty, and even that most of the trusted managers in this forum promote projects that don't pay or are scams!! But if the bounty allocation is escrowed, I'm 90% sure that you will get your rewards.

Seeing the current development Bounty will never die, Bounty is still a good idea, maybe they just changed the way it works. Many people don't realize the best way to do it. The key question to ask a bounty manager about his campaign is what is the minimum acknowledgment threshold for submitting quality posts so that the quality improves over time so the bounty may return to its former glory like 2018.

2018 is already 5 years ago, quality people and projects still exist. but a quality account will choose a quality project too, maybe you follow some less quality projects. unlike 5 years ago everyone was serious about building a project for a better known crypto image. Currently crypto is well known, so many scammer take advantage of it. such as creating multiple accounts or creating fake projects. I think this phenomenon is a sign that the crypto world is already at the top level

The crowd has moved as you have noticed and that is not just because the projects are scams, we know alot of them are scams, but because most projects do not pay their bounty hunters at all. These new projects now run bounty campaigns and pay with altcoins instead of paying with bitcoin as it was in the 2018 era you mentioned. No one will like to stay for a project that does not pay him. I have a bounty I did here that ended early this year but till today the project has not paid. They are jumping from one story to the other on why they have not yet distributed the token rewards.

Now managers like detective bounty have done that where they set a limit on the number of participants who can enter the campaign and you can directly see each bounty program held by the manager I mentioned because the restrictions have already been made.
And so are several other managers who have implemented the same thing.

The detective bounty is very good so far because it limits the number of signature members joining due to the small allocation given to the signature section, the goal is to maximize the earnings for hard work for signature members because some detective bounties pay in USDT or BUSD.

Yes, now very few new projects in their bounty provide for signature companies. And even those, if you look closely, do not shine with a special prospect. In addition, the remuneration compared to previous years, especially 2017-2018, has fallen many times. Therefore, the number of participants in these campaigns has greatly decreased. On the altcointalks forum, there are also several signature campaigns for a long time, and there is also a period when there is none at all. Thus, the choice that was before is practically no longer there.
As for the quality of the posts, I would not say that they differ greatly in different years, including now.

Things do change from time to time and people tend to move to a place or system that seems more profitable. If you look at how many scam projects people have encountered then at a point it will seem there are no more legit projects. Maybe this is why the quality reduced. But recently people have been more concerned about making profits.

I think, For the most part, they neglected to market the real value of the community.  Some projects look to IDO on the launch pad in search of alternative high-end money pumps.  In other words, they use money to buy cross-community… Of course, that doesn't change the vision and everything about quality projects - but real quality projects, don't need to spend money to buy support public - their value and proper development.

These days, bounties don't pay; plenty of individuals use many accounts to earn several incentives, and most of the projects they launch these days are mostly scams or projects with no future. Nonetheless, we participate to try our luck because no one knows when or how they will succeed in life.

2018 and past years were no longer the same. You have seen the big changes that has happened to the entire bounties market. But I don't think that it's dead already.
I can still see a lot of bounties paying their participants and is convertible to the cryptocurrencies that they like. It's just hard for all of the bounty hunters to find the legitimate one especially if most that you've joined always fail to success.

There are many cases where bounty hunters have multiple accounts to increase the income they get, that's why sometimes the posts that are made are of less value. The bounty now and in the past is clearly the different and to find a good bounty nowadays is a bit more difficult among the many bounties or projects that appear. If you say the bounty is dead then I don't think so because there are still many bounties that can be followed, it's just that we have to be smart in choosing a good bounty. Comparing the current bounty with the previous one will only make us lazy to follow the bounty, so follow the flow and for the bounty hunters do the best to get the best results too.

Bounties are going to grow alongside with blockchain. Infact i think bounty system will expand to other fields of life. This is the new marketing way, and is going to make the old marketing systems obsolete. With this you don't need a marketing team without performance, instead a user base is developed along side with the marketing is also done. So win win situation for all.

we are still seeing a lot of bounty programs, but maybe, you can only count them in fingers who are really respecting their agreement about giving the tokens allotted to their hunters at a specified period of time. and even if they sent it to them, there's no guarantee that they can sell it in the market for the price they said to its hunters. bottomline, even if we see a lot of these bounty programs everyday, only few of them will make it in the market. not yet dead but i guess, it should be stopped as they are mostly wasting time of the users here or scamming investors.

I  presume it is not all IDO launchpad platforms that mandatory KYC verification for the project team before launching their IDO. There are some decentralized an IDO platforms didn't support KYC and it newbies who need to educate themselves about this.

Speaking of pinksale, they have done IDO for  9072 projects, for which a total of $362.1M was raised and I am sure that not all the investors that participated in their IDO understand they didn't support KYC.

Cheaters have been existef since in the past, even in 2018 or previously. And they seem never endless.

Bounty today may be not as many as previously. We can also see from the decreased of BM that are active right now.
but with this condition, we can see also that thr bounties are not as high as shit projects in the past.

As i said that above if it's not all if platforms are implementing the KYC verification. In my opinion mostly of IDO that was not doing verification to the its client will be always used by the scam project. So many scam tokens are launched through this launch pad.


Yeah sure especially those meme tokens investors who are always gambling with the new meme tokens that launched through pinksale. I have seen so many people got scammed as well.

Well because in that time a lot of people didn't know if bounties can replace their real-life job so because many people see a lot of potential in bounty campaigns they make a lot of accounts to get more rewards with little effort. Also nowadays a lot of new projects coming up unlike in 2018 because right now crypto is more mainstream than 4 years ago so you will feel only a few projects that huge crowd.

It's all about the success that they get from their ways of marketing which includes bounties. The bounty hunters are aware of the success chance that a project may get.
So, many of them are just joining as much as they can and they know the percentage of it won't be the same as few years back when most of the bounties were successful.

Indeed, when talking about the current bounty campaign, it is different from the past,
in the past we could get a lot from just one account but it's different now,
so maybe it makes some people join the bounty campaign using multiple accounts

well i got a new project running, and im attempt to make it bigger, to be honest it is so difficult to find a good sales and marketing, but somehow i did all the sales and marketing by myself, and im with a big proud wanted to announce to you all my project , sooo without any further due lets check it out, shall we....  ;D ;D ;D ;D

meet you all there .....

cheerrsssssss ...!!

In the crypto space today everyone is now a developer, this is why we have tons of crap and shit projects in this space today, bounties on the other part are mostly scam projects, only 1 out of a hundred is worth promoting, do your own research if bounty is your thing and choose wisely.

Even though when there are many projects that have no results, but some of them I have gotten good projects but the pay is per week even though the results are not much but I am quite satisfied because I get results every week.

I agree most of them don't end well but trust me they are still worth a try. Last year if I played smarted I would get more then 50k$ for one bounty, instead I sold it too early for 5k$.

With limit number participants have chance higher reward distribution but keep not really bigger if your rank under Sr Member, almost several time on detective signature campaign how ever much reward allocation keep 20$ each week for Sr Member and 40$ allocation each week for Hero Member, above Full Member will credit only 10$ every week. I know with how good signature bounty campaign from Detective but if have account under Sr Member looks little reward achieve and several signature or bounty campaign there always distribution on time based on announcement there.

Because of the low percentage of bounties nowadays that are actually paying and most of them are turning into scams or just some kind of sugar-coated project, users wouldn't want to waste their time even though they might pass a real project. Unless there will be some users who shared their successful bounty experience like back in the days, bounties nowadays will not be the same as 4 years ago. Also, more people are attracted to NFTs rather than doing bounties that don't have any assurance to pay.

They can't be called as developers but they are scammers. In my opinion if you must also aware about that if there are so many token creation service on fiverr. You can pay a few dollars to get a new token minted as per your request. This what we called that as scam.
So many scammers are also using this kind of service to create scam tokens. Majority of scammers have no knowledge about token creation but they are using such service.
It's not all of bounties are scam but mostly of bounties issued by suspicious project will be lead into the scam project

Bounties used to be a good way of making extra money but there are too many scam projects using bounty hunters for their own advantage now, do not take bounties very serious unless there is a very good project in the space that decides to use bounty hunters for awareness, you can also choose from lists of escrowed bounty campaigns, brain boss, julerz12 and bounty star do use escrow payment at times.

less. at this time to be able to get a worthy award for bounty hunters, it seems that it is very difficult to get from the hundreds of projects that are being carried out so maybe being able to get 1 good one and give a decent one is something miraculous.

escrow is the best way so that it can give bounty hunters the confidence to trust but that alone is not completely guaranteed. once again all elements must be able to work well together and be willing to provide information to each other about a project, so that if the journey is not feasible it can be stopped and unsustainable which will actually make it difficult for many bounty hunters.
I hope that the golden age of the bounty in 2017-2018 can return again and I am optimistic that it will happen in the future, because good BMs will emerge and can properly select each project to be handled, so that it can contribute to bounty hunters fairly decently.

Presumably, many had looked at short-term investments rather than choosing long-term. The majority are riding the hypes that are made by NFT and Metaverses projects leaving bounties. As the fake project's issues continued, people don't make valued Bountie anymore as they'd rather ignore it.

Remembering those days 4 years ago when bounties are paying well but now,  they are absolutely changed, can't find legit, and too sad to say that they are getting worse.

THIS, but also, the project might not have done the necessary legwork beforehand and did not restrict bounties in such a way that bots would have a hard time joining. I think the bounty manager who decided that the project is worth promoting should be the one making sure the participants are of good quality.

I have seen good projects drown in bots and bad participants because of a lack of quality control. Even at times when the project itself would have definitely rose above and become something beautiful.

Shame, really.

The point of escrow in the bounty campaigns was to prevent scams in the first place. So what happened is that legit bounty project coming to these reputable managers did work out nicely. Scam bounty projects got rejected by these managers so some less reputed and less known managers took them eventually they would not escrow the money because then the scam project owners would break the deal.

This leads to the propagation of scam bounties, because some manager (or wannabe) out there will eventually pick it up and agree to no escrow because they want work.

Ultimate end result remains same, work with reputable managers, you get some good rewards. But that time is better spent on going with bitcoin paying campaigns. Thus the gradual decline in enthusiasm in bounties, even though that section exists with its own share of cesspool.

They've stopped or only participating in projects that they think have potential, these old bounty hunters know the fact that it's not worth investing your time and effort anymore, it took months before they received their rewards, the projects are scammed or have no market value, majority of participants in bounty campaign are those who can gamble or take the risk to join as many bounties as they can in the hope that one of the bounties they are promoting will give them good profit, it's like they are ok with 1 or 2 good projects out of 20.

well obviously its happening because mostly projects nowadays are low quality as well, wherein, they don't care who will gonna advertise their project as long as the participants wearing their signatures and etc because on that way they still can get attention and sad to say most of them are paying shitcoins unlike before.. So this is not surprising to be honest..

We have enough view points shared that why bounties are not attractive anymore. But what surprises me that there is no decrease in bounty hunters.
You launch a new bounty today and within seconds hundred of people will register for social media bounties. When people know that bounties are useless why people join them ?

The difference is that there are way more projects these days and the bounty managers have a very little time, I mean you could work like 16 hours a day, but you can't do that every single day. By creating like 10 bounties for a single manager, you are giving them a workload of checking thousands of people, and that is not an easy task, do that for 10 projects and they check tens of thousands of people. I wouldn't be able to do it for that many, I would accept like one or maybe two and then learn from that.

Or maybe I would just hire other people to help me out as well, that way it would be easier. All in all I wouldn't accept 10 bounties all by just myself, that is too much. This is why we are seeing lower and lower quality, because managers can't check them properly.

bounty mania has ended. Now there are few projects, and them don't offer interesting revenue for users.
Sometimes they requires a lot of tasks and actions, or to have all social networks linked with an account... no it's not for me.
Personally I have joined just a couple last year (really simple registrations like provide an email address + eth address)... since the most project heavily advertised are scam, or a loss of time.
However interesting project must use bounty for distributions of their coins because with minimal effort they can acquire a big fan bases and receive a lot of promotion.

Every day a new project is launched, both with a bounty campaign system and with an Airdrop. There may be hundreds of projects trying to attract investors. This causes some projects to fail. Failed not only during the campaign period, but there are also projects that have been launched to the exchange not getting a good price, even much lower than the presale price. I not only participated in the bounty campaign, but also participated in the presale.

That's why i like Detective bounty management and i'm very satisfied as a participant for their several Signature campaigns. Their allocation is very low so that it’s really important to limitation in their campaigns otherwise no one will get decent rewards. And their mostly campaigns managed by escrowed payment, so i think it’s guaranteed rewards for the hunters.

It's not that powerful of a strategy as it was before, eh? I can still recall back in 2017 when the bounties board almost get bombarded by newer projects every hour and it was almost a scam pit for the many as most of them turned out to be just an attempt to collect your data anyway.
It's a no-go just like airdrops now.

These are some good reasons why some bounty hunters might have quit bounty hunting because they have not earned like the way they expected.
A project might be a scam, won't get good value in the market, or will eventually fail, thus you're earning worthless tokens, or shitcoins.
Though there are still a handful of good projects that'll get you good earning once their token took off.

Because many project nowadays didn't pay the bounty hunters and mostly, projects now failed even they did a lot of promotion.Also there is only few project back in 2018 and those project is genuine and with real use case that's why many investors put their trust to those projects. Unlike now, many projects launched everyday and you didn't know what project will succeed in the future. And there's a lot of scammers nowadays that's why investors are very careful to trust the project.

In essence the bounty campaign is still not dead until now because there are many projects that are always born with different qualities and everyone can see it very carefully before choosing and entering the presale, because the risk is always there in every new project with the potential for failure is always there inside it.

Actually the bounties died a long time ago. All those who are now trying to make money on bounties and airdrops by spamming the forum with these countless tweets, Facebook reports, you are wasting your time. The market has long been transformed. If you want to earn tokens, which will have some value, then participate in testnet, in Ambassador programs, etc. The times of bounties are over, and they all bring almost nothing to their participants, with rare exceptions. The time that bounty hunters spend on this could be spent in far more profitable pursuits.

I don't see much difference in the bounty campaign, because all the campaigns I've participated in they have paid for it, although not on time, but the work I did on the bounty campaign was never in vain. and I really hope the bounty campaign is available here forever. so my advice to you is to choose and follow a bounty campaign that has a good and professional manager and study the project before you follow it. so it doesn't give rise to the thought that the bounty campaign is dead.

Still available but its hard to find out those real bounty projects from thousands of shit. Even in those days of 2018,  there were also shit bounties! so its important to analysis a bounty project before start promoting blindly. If you find out bots, bot accounts, multiple fake people, then avoid those bouny project. But another real fact is, good project Doesn't neee bounties for their promotion. Lots of good project succesfully traded without helding any bounty..

Real users had just focused on other ventures or career which do exclude out bounties on their list considering that most projects are already that scammy or not really that have some value which it would

really ending up on wasting effort and resources and its been long time gone into those golden days of bounties where most people do really cherish out big profits when they get paid
but now?  All of them or almost are trash which isnt really that worth so expect that there would be still someone who would really engage but though it would be mostly
bots or multiple accounts.

these project usually reallocate their bounty campaign budget to another marketing activity which is based on their mind more attractive to investors. maybe recruting crypto influencer will be their option since alot beginer hear their advice.  if  any project provide bounty campaing , they will give small allocation to prevent dump and protect their investors.

Maybe some managers can't control the participants who follow the bounty project they manage because the free slots provided by some managers, maybe by reducing the slots given, there will be many quality accounts that join the project if we compare from year to year 2018 it is very different from now.

Indeed. I'd rather go learning how to trade rather than joining bounties. It is sad to say that bounties are getting close to having their ends as the situation becomes worse. I honestly got overwhelmed by the increasing number of bounties and projects created but somehow, the majority of them are useless projects. Totally a waste of time but I then got surprised that many are still joining and making fans with them. Bots and multiple accounts have been going to exist, imagine seeing newbies are very actively sending their POP.

I think still not ended with bounty campaign right now, after several opinion here said with bounty campaign have been over disagree with their opinion. I think still have several bounty manager trusted like Detective where last his campaign success distribution reward on time depending promised on bounty tread. Maybe if have some one said with bounty campaign over maybe they are not active on bounties tread and how come if bounty over every time we got signature code on each member on Bitcointalk forum.

These days a good percentage of new projects are just plain scams or short term pump and dumps. Comprised of mainly rebase tokens and meme coins. And the pay is miserable. So what is the use

Agreed it's still available, but it might be difficult to get a true real bounty with a true development goal and out of the thousands that appear, to be able to have one alone is of course pretty amazing. if you look at the phenomenon when I first started getting to know bitcointalk in 2017, immediately at that time I could find lots of quality bounties because they really wanted to develop it, so that it had a clear impact on investors and not except for bounty hunters, everyone could enjoy the results of the bounty that is run well by the Dev, and the allocation that will be used is also known in real how much % for each can be given.

at this time maybe there are more who want to make a bounty and after doing marketing, they will throw it away and will create a new one, because they prefer that by creating a new bounty it is easier to reap profits than to continue to develop the bounty that has been made. so don't expect that the bounty that will be run can give maximum results and it has become something real and real happening right now.

Dead or not, they are waste of time. Most of the bounty program either scam their participants or pay them peanuts. It used to be profitable back then when ICOs were very popular. The hype died and so did those bounty programs.
They realized that it is no longer profitable to join bounty programs. The "quality" crowds are now doing something more better while the bots and crappy users are still joining the bounty program and spamming everywhere.

alot campaign managers here still produce good bounty campaign, as you said bounty detective, there another manager such as hhampuz, irfan pak,yahoo ,murat which is have good reputation here. we are still far away from dead , good project always appear everyday and some of them use this forum to promote their project. iam respect to bounty manager that actively contact developers team to promote their services and run campaign for us.

most people come to this forum because the money and money made from bounties today are much different from 2017, nowadays most bounties will end in scams or dead projects. I see if the activity on this forum has decreased drastically when compared to 2017, maybe this is because most people have left this forum and chose to look for work in the real world. Besides that the new feature "merit" seems to make most people think that the forum rules are getting stricter and make them leave this forum.

Good bounties also come monthly with few amount. Recently saw many usdt, busd paying bounty from bounty Detective, julerz12 and others managers. Even most of bounty from irfanpak, always good. But its true that now good bounties are dead. Successful rate is so low and that could be the reason behind people leaving bitcointalk in the comparison of last 3years. Hope good days will back soon

it's actually the same thing, in the past the number of participants was small and now the bounty participants are starting to get crowded, so from those allocated to getting a little, not as much as before, not dead.
I think that participating in the current bounty is still very worth it, but we must be observant in seeing opportunities and following the bounty held by a trusted manager.

Although currently participating in bounties is not as good as in previous years, at least until now we still have several bounty managers who have a high level of trust in this forum and some of them also always apply for escrow to project developers when they want to run the bounty, so we bounty workers will not be afraid if the project is a scam because the bounty manager already holds escrow so we will actually receive the payment when the bounty is finished.

I believe that the low quality is caused by the participants and not because of the project themselves. People join with multiple accounts and the quality dropped a lot, which caused projects to pay less because quality is lower. These days projects could have 50k+ followers and not have enough investors to get 50 bnb pre-sale amount. This caused them to realize that they need to spend less and less in order to make it justified.

Back in the day, the difference was that if you had 5k+ followers, then you could get 500 bnb, because most followers actually promoted you, and not just aimed at getting their money, there was a loyalty to the place that paid you.

I can't say I'm a good poster either but nowadays it's just so difficult to filter out some of the multiple accounts by same person because most of the accounts are being used for social media campaign that it's so difficult to track it unless they make some mistakes such as same wallet addresses, same account name etc.

Bounties are still alive but the reward is already low compared to what we have experienced in 2017-2018, the bounty itself is no longer just limited to bitcointalk campaign but if you have some sort of skill to track down some bug in their projects then it could be a great bounty for you.

It's because of both. Part of that is because participants use many different accounts, which reduces the rewards significantly. Partly because most of today's bounty projects are mostly shitcoins, some can't even be listed on exchanges, some don't pay bounty hunters after months of hard work just.

I don't think so, the current Bounty is still very good and promising, I followed several Bounties and I always get paid even though it's not like I used to get paid very much.
of the many Bounties only a few are Scams, the rest are always successful, I think it's not dead. and hopefully it won't die.

Most of the devs don’t want to promote with escrow deal, i see only a few bounty managers trying to manage a project with escrow. Julerz12 and Bounty Detective both of their conducted project most of the time escrowed, but i see before bounty distribution these project will go almost dead. So that i think hunters will not get their expected rewards even if payment will escrow.

People now are skeptical and have been trying to avoid some bounties because of our past experiences with it. We've been scammed and just wasted our time on unsuccessful bounties that turned into shitcoins later on. There are still good bounties but most of them are just deceiving. It's now better to grab other crypto opportunities rather than risking in bounties.

I guess coming from a Staff, I can see now. I have not read Bounties section for quite a while nor did have any awareness on how these bounties are doing anyway nor do I care as well. I do not want to get paid with shitcoins.
I wonder if there would be a time where lesser activities in the forum would happen due to that kind of scenario.

Actually Bounty never dies, instead they come to the forum to be promoted, but that's too skeptical because bounties are more like shitcoins and in the end they become scams, they come disguised as other people's projects I often check the whitepaper of every bounty that comes but that's what I often find and in the end it became a scam that happened a lot, I think indeed many people have turned to start trading and other ways to make their profits instead of having to survive with bounties.

People still do bounties? I wonder how much people earn from them nowadays? I remember bounties had 50-100k reward pools, now I see around 3-10k only. I have recently seen bounty with 3k reward that will last for 2 or weeks. Its twitter campaign was full with hunters, I think more than 500. Its alocation was 30-40%, if everyone have equal followers, maximum hunter would get about 2.5 bucks, for 3 weeks. It is even worth making multiple accounts with such rewards.

keep calm mate, there are still bounty managers here who are very good at their services,
and are considered very good in choosing bounty projects, all of them pay even though the payment we get is a little more than the bounty in 2017-2018,
 try to follow Brainboosbounty, BountyDetective and of course Hhampuz bounty, I guarantee you will get your payment.

Even those who enrol many accounts in bounties are also breaking the rule here.

And most times we run out of luck when we try because this projects end up scamming us. They waste our time for weeks and thereafter still do not pay us. I have been scammed alot by projects refusing to pay. It is even bad since they end up getting away with it. After many scam experiences I now take my time in picking bounties I apply to. I do not have to work for others to enjoy my sweat.

It's better to choose those project which are escrowed by Bounty manager. We know all Project did not do this then second option is to check the bounty manager . Brain boss,HHumpuz,Mr Irfan,Bounty Detective all are trusted BM and managed many good projects. Third option is to check their Twitter and Telegram Community. If  the community already big there is high chances that they will pay.

We must be selective in applying for bounties with a detailed project analysis process, so that it is less likely to be cheated and not distributed, of course we will not be willing to work without proper pay for weeks running project promotion activities, so we still hope for luck for us to get pay according to our work.

i don't follow all the current bounties, i only follow the signature bounties ^{(like the one i'm currently wearing)}, from my personal experience, so far the bounties i follow continue to pay off well.  you have to be more selective in choosing which bounty you want to join, don't follow it arbitrarily because your time is very valuable.

Well, some reviews are paid and obviously made good just to attract investors, many are fake and a reason why many still had fallen to wrong market promotions. Now, it is really hard to detect if the bounty is a scam or going to scam, many of these bounties had looked good in their early days but devs had abandoned them in the latter part of the campaign, sometimes BM had even not received the payment. Too sad but the look of bounties now is getting worse.

If you know they are bot/fake accounts, why don't you remove them? I don't think even in 2018, we are free from bot/fake accounts. This always happens each year, that's why a bounty manager should be more careful in choosing the participants in a bounty program. Regarding the low-quality comments/posts, it is not always related to the case of bot/fake accounts. Even if they are real accounts, they may make low-quality posts. This can be caused by a less experience of the users or less sufficient knowledge. Just check their post history before deciding to accept them.

They will do everything for money. It's worth nothing for you guys but for third world country, even for $10/bounties could make a huge difference for some of them especially with how much accounts they probably have in their hands. Just combine it with how much social media bounties we have in this forum, they could get a decent amount of money for just a little effort they put into this kind of stuff.

There are many reason why is this happening first is that some bounty campaigns are not 100% sure to give you legit coins cause nowadays there are many scam that offer you a good coun but they won't give you in the end. All of a sudden why does other users create many alt accounts to farm in bounty campaigns and get more profit and it's a big cases now days cause too many alts account own by 1 person.

now the bounty is getting better a lot of good new projects and it's a shame if you have a bitcoin talk account and you didn't join the bounty project. this is a great opportunity to collect dollars.

Although it's not as exciting as the previous stages, I still see many projects that bring great happiness to the hunter. Today, as the trend of changing the approach to marketing programs for many projects is also different, bounty is only a small part of this space. However, when I see some stories from BM among hunters in the bounty environment, I see that there are many problems with management, as well as that participants are increasingly abusing this work to spread scam projects. 

Looks several signature code here dominance by campaign weekly payment and less signature code from altcoin bounties, but I don't see with less opportunity to received payment although with altcoin bounties because still have several bounties worth and pay on time. But need research and looking with bounty campaign limit participants for joining like campaign from bounty detective. If not limit bounty participants maybe not much reward received when bounty ended although distributing with stable coin like BUSD or altcoin have listed on exchange market.

Since a few months ago many signatures were dominated by week pay campaign participants because there was little chance for the bounty to get real income, almost all bounties were dominated by scam projects except for some bounties that had been paid in BUSD and the coins were escrowed to be paid by the bounty manager.

I just returned to bounty, after 2019 following the bounty, it's definitely very different now, some people prefer to follow the signature because it looks like projects that pay with signatures can pay more seriously than the usual bounty campaign. Also, the really bad difference is that every year I see there is always an increase in fraudulent bounty payments, driving everyone away from the bounty campaign.

at the time of 2018, people are not yet aware of the Bounty project, those involved in the bounty project are really high quality both in marketing or account.

Today there are many fake project teams, also many fake accounts promoting the project, currently the two problems are both fake, who turned it off, of course they themselves.

True, some people secretly use many accounts in one campaign, they always say, because the bounty with one account has very little income, this is very much used by campaign participants from 2020, the small allocation and complicated distribution make them justify any means to earn income here, although this forum is always monitored, but they continue to try to get a loophole. But in fact, from year to year the quality of bounties and participants has decreased, since 2017 is better than this year.

The current bounty condition is certainly like heaven and earth compared to 5 years ago, at that time with a full member level I once earned at least $500 per month, but now it is very difficult to get $50 per month, of course I understand that 5 years ago there were few bounty participants , whereas projects provide large rewards so that participants get big payouts, 5 years ago many projects were successful in ICO with a collection of hundreds of millions of dollars even less than a month, whereas nowadays it is very difficult to reach the softcap of 100 BNB ($40k).

I agree back then in 2017 when I participated a bounty campaign I got a decent amount, but the different bounty today with the old one is the old one run for a long time around three months on average while nowadays most bounty only run between 2-4 weeks with a big amount of rewards that I think is weird because when we got the tokens it worth so small.

The idea is that, if you are making money as the bounty participant, then I would guess that you would make a lot more money if you were the one who distributed it. Think about it, if you were to aim at some scam, wouldn't you want to just distribute the token you created out of thin air, literally spent no money to create, distribute it to people like it worths something and then ask them to work for you?

It is like me saying "hey I created ME dollars, work in my company and earn this"! It reminds me of schrute bucks basically. All in all, a token is valued at zero in my mind until it is not, and that is why bounties are getting more and more scams.

All of this is caused by the lack of income received by bounty participants, although there are some people who basically want to deceive the managers who manage the bounty, because many people understand that if they only play on one account, their income is very little, but back again to an individual person, if If the intention is evil, then the treatment that is carried out is against the existing rules

If there is anyone who still earns good from bounties, would gladly read your experience. Please, dont just write "I have earned a X money", but rather write a bounty you have participated, so that we could check what you have written. Or if you want to stay anonymous, point on some campaigns that gave its participants at least several hundreds for participation. I believe there are bounty campaigns outside this forum, such bounties also suits, as we speak about bounties in general.

Honestly gone are days when bounty campaigns was very  profitable and rewarding after investing our time and efforts, unfortunately reverse is the case now partly due to many scam projects and some of those projects after listing in exchange, their value are usually low, Moreso a lot of bounty hunter dump those coins consecutively it price dropped lower, I recently participated in an eight week bounty campaign lo and behold my total earnings was less than $20 after the coin was listed, I was very disappointed, I just hodl the coin in my Trust wallet.

Yes, you're right, I notice it too. most of the bounty today's are participated by cheaters. especially in telegram a lot of bots participants. but there are also some good Bounty managers that manage well their bounty.
  

This has been the trend when cheaters found their way to bounties and this could be the main reason as well why some bounties are not paying their participants because they noticed a lot of cheaters joining their bounties.

Managers can only do as much, it takes time for other members to hunt and find and report cheaters.

That's why nothing happens and it's been confirmed that when hunters get coins they will definitely sell them in their entirety while the coins in this low volume market won't reverse the value for the better, it will go down worse when mass dumping occurs, so that's how it feels in the bounty Disappointment must exist when working a few weeks but the results are never satisfactory.
Since there were many ICO scams in 2018/19, many bounties didn't get better I think because investors don't trust them anymore.

Most of the old users follow some good bounty managers to chose a safe campaign. First goal for them is to guarantee that the funds are secured by the reputation of the manager and that they will receive the payment. Then hope that the rewarded token will have a value and reach exchangers.
New accounts will lose a lot of time before knowing how to chose which campaign is worth joining.

Note that many projects paid participants with major coins.

indeed currently the bounty is experiencing a very significant quality decline where the average allocation is very small and the distribution is very complicated, not to mention many failed and scammed projects, but I not think the bounty is dead, maybe the crypto bounty is currently experiencing a bit decline because the crypto market is declining, I am very optimistic that in the future the bonus quality will increase again,

You don't need to be concern where those crowd from bounties are. They are most likely not interested in bounties anymore as many of rhe bounties are scam as said in previous replies. Even if the project is legit or real but still the project owner won't pay because of those cheaters and those who join without cheating will not paid also.

I'm sure every quarter of the year there is a time when bounties are no longer popular due to very small campaign allocations and due to the influence of bounty scams, but some parts of the bounty community remain solid in researching new bounties to find potential points as successful bounties

Currently there are some users in the forum who have no idea about the forum.As soon as they see the project, they join the project and start working. The project started working directly regardless of whether it was a scam or not.And now the bounty site is not like before. Now it has reached a much worse stage.

The main reason for that is the fact that bounties offer their own token, whereas others offer real crypto. If someone told you that they will pay you million xcoin, or pay you $60 in usdt, which one looks more reasonable to you? I personally prefer the ones that I know how much I am getting paid. That way I know what I am getting into and at least there is no risk involved.

Plus, bounties are usually short term, even though there are a few with long term results, most of them happen within a month and leave if they can't get good results. Whereas casinos usually just keep doing it because it means they can grow big in the bitcointalk forum and get customers from here, even if they can't get big results today, the money they spend could be earned from all those gamblers that came in and gamble for many years.

They probably has decided not to support scam, fake projects and that is what majority of those Bounty projects are. I think some are still available and are working for the very little good Bounty projects regardless I may have not witnessed the bounty era but from read ups many lost capitals and even trust in Crypto-Curreny, so I can say the bounty sector has faded, it’s trust rating would be very low as of now.

2018 was good quality?!?  This forum has always been filled with bots or spammers well before 2018.  Offer a bounty and the cockroaches will come out of every corner.  It's no different now than it was in 2018 or even 2016 tbh.

Sorry to say this but i feel you are wrong about the account farming as regards bounty of 2018 and the bounty of today. Multiple accounts has been in existence way before now and the only thing you can say is the fact that there are more cheaters compared to before. It's actually no hard thing to fish out these perpetrators and get their account banned. I look forward to the bounty manager doing the right thing

Things are not the same even in other aspects so that's normal. The quality is still there but the engagement is what's low. Many
 people sometimes  get tired and drop off from performing their usual task.

April was good month for hunters and many good Bounty released. Bounty is useful for project SEO and trending. If the project has investor then I think it's goods for Project to run bounty. Some project have no marketing and community beside the Bitcointalk and we know hunters are not interested in presale which result a project failed.

How did you know that they are good bounties? Even the project doesn't have investors they can pay the user their native token to get investors to increase the activities in using bounty campaign, it is actually a good strategy if you don't have budget to pay the bounty hunters for their efforts to help the project.

most of the bounty projects now they are looking for reasons when their project is successful for example when their project is successful they make gradual distribution rules and they are when the distribution is in progress they take action not knowing the bounty hunters if we ask on telegram they release responsibility like the CITIZEN project .

They are not dead but plague with scam projects that is looking for investors and scam them and some projects are just a copycat of good projects and the others are worthless projects that in just one look you'll know that it isn't going anywhere, but not all of the bounties are dead you can still spot some good projects that is worth joining.

ya.ya.yo!

citizen did not fulfill his promise to send tokens every month, around 65% of tokens were not distributed, but in the second distribution, the price was good, and was able to get results. After many people reported scams, until now the price of the coin has fallen and has replaced the smart contract. but nowadays many bounty managers apply escrow, even though the income is not much, but at least we get paid

indeed things like that will always be done by irresponsible Devs, wanting to only profit from the success they have. there is always a lesson that there will always be good ones, who will always be willing to pay according to the agreement that has been made.

Escrow is certainly a new breakthrough, so that they can open up mutual trust, that they have good intentions, with the aim of producing good results, although this is not the best way but at least there is certainty. because if the intention is not good then there is always a way to cheat, the opportunity is always there and there are many ways that can be done.
but the most important thing is that the bounty is still there and does not die, will always continue to grow.

For that reason it's not worth the work to advance. Dissimilar to before the vast majority of the bounties that I see are genuine and doubtlessly it has a worth in the wake of being recorded on trades and the undertaking is not kidding. In that capacity, you're simply going to get less individuals, since it's simply going to be a level of those individuals still effectively utilizing the gatherings who might finish paperwork for an abundance in any case.

Bounties are not bad because you aren't investing anything but your time, if it works out well its good and if it doesn't the world won't come to an end because of it, after doing all good research you might still end up with bad results, do not rely entirely on bounties.

actually, we don't know whether the bounty is good or not until the bounty is over. The main problem that often occurs with bounties is not the project, but the payment for the bounty hunter. some pretty good bounty projects a few months or years ago were Citizen Finance. the project has a very good price in the market. Yes, I followed the path of the project. However, due to the pending project payment, until now I have heard quite a lot of FUD news for the project. Well, I think many bounty projects are like that. even when they have run their project, but payment problems sometimes make the project crash.

Personally, I can say that practically nothing has changed, as it was in the 2018 bounty, and in 2022 the bounty is no different. As there were a large number of fake projects, so many fake projects remain. But there are also good promising projects. Where the participants receive the earned profit. So I think that bounties in the future will develop and bring a lot of benefits.

I don't see it coming, good days are over for bounty hunters. I was one back the days but now I lost sight of it because of many failure projects that I have engage in. So better to look for a productive work of that time than trying to make a fortune out of bounties. Unless you are okay with coins that are worth pennies.

While others see things differently you choose to be positive in bounty hunting, bounty hunters should check what to promote scammers keeps making new projects because they know they can rely on bounty hunters to promote their projects, it's the bounty hunters that sustain these scam projects, stops supporting and promoting these scam projects by learning how to spot scammers.

The scammers are always looking for ways to commit fraud, even now they are always using bounty hunters for something they want, look at the current projects, only certain managers have a successful bounty program, even though the project does not get paid that much. worth it, therefore we need to check every launched project, it's time to leave the irresponsible scamers

Many of the scammer dev knows very well this is a good market to make money so they launch their projects We all know in most of the projects team remains anonymous and this is the important thing that we should consider while doing it. Real team member projects are worth joining but they can also fail if they are not able to touch the soft cap. I agree the year 2018 was the golden time of bounties and most of the project that launched in 2018 was good but now it's not easy to identify the scam project at first because every project dev does marketing in a way that a normal trader or bounty hunter could not identify the scam projects in the start.

It really hurts bounty hunters because those who are tired of working don't get paid properly and such a project actually deserves to be called a SCAM even though their product is listed in the market at a very expensive price.
Because cheating the bounty participants is very unnatural, especially after the project becomes successful.

what do you mean by bot account? because to join the bounty campaign there is no way there is a bot account on the bitcointalk forum. but if you say on social media like Telegram and others then I will also say the same thing that many bot accounts are not qualified. and I think the bot account has been around since the beginning even from the very beginning I joined the bounty campaign.

Unfortunately, you are both right. In social media campaigns (mainly Facebook, Twitter and most Telegram), I have the impression that most accounts are bots or thats are huge account farms that simply take away the opportunity to earn a reward from real users. Even the best bounty manager cannot eliminate it. I think these campaigns will not make any sense soon and the projects will just stop launching them.

When I started to bounties journey then Bounties were well and although bounty manager done theke job as well.But now a lot of scammer scammed in bounties. A lot of fake account have forum.But some bounties manager still doing their job as well.I think bounties are not dead but not like before 2017-18.

now you have to be more selective in choosing which bounty you will follow, lower your expectations and follow all of them (bounties that pay tokens) if you can because maybe one of them will pay you. but if you want to get a bounty with a definite payment then look for a bounty in the "service" section (which pays bitcoin) because it is more certain to get paid every week.

The difference between bounty and a campaign for BTC payouts although the working method is not much different for the purpose of promoting the project, so if it's not feasible to join the campaign on the service then look for opportunities on the bounty, I think there are some good bounties in progress so take the time to check the details

You can invest in Ethereum. Though the gas fee is high, Ethereum have the potential to grow more in the future especially if the Ethereum 2.0 project comes to limelight. Avalalnche is equally a good investment. There are numerous altcoins that have the potential to grow but it is preferable to look out for the ones that have steady growth over the years (check the chart), that will be a good guide to make a better choice.

Definitely not, there are several projects that still use these campaigns. You can find it here for sure I guess.

I keep on participating in bounties, because I am somehow used to participating in them and find out new projects from them, not from googling or direct search.

We dont see many information that bounties bring money. Due that, I think the amount of hunters will decrease, and later bounties would die. From my point of view, hunters create demand on bounties, not bounties and rewards force hunters to participate. Frankly, projects usually get nothing from all these social media and article campaigns. I think soon project would realise that bounties are not as usefull as previosly and would run them only to have a tick in their achivement list.

it was their fault who broke their promise. bounty is very reasonable to make a fraud report because it is disappointed with the actions of the citizen team, the problem of falling prices is not caused by bounty hunters but for sure the citizen team does not keep their promise at least even though the coin price drops, they still have to keep their promise.

The bounty is still there, but the conditions are really worrying. The difficulty of registering on the forums, and the stricter rules make it difficult for everyone to follow the bounty. follow the bounty also some people do use more than one account, they think if only following the bounty only one account their income is still not in accordance with their work. I hope the future bounty will be brighter, it's difficult but anyway I'm still happy to be in the forum with the bounty campaign.

Still earn passive income with several bounties campaign although many time found scam bounty project with delay payment distribution until coins without have value when receiving. But I am very happy with joining several bounty campaign actually with trusted manager bounty and most specific worth with bounty campaign adopt escrow for payment distribution. Several bounty campaign still got payment if handle by Detective and other bounty manager campaign because they have pay based on schedule have agreement with bounty project, participants and bounty manager.

Bounties will never die, Bounties have existed since cryptocurrencies were launched, in the past Waves, Ethereum, etc. also had Bounties,
and it is proven that bounties can make the community stronger, it's only natural that new projects launch a bounty program and it has become a tradition,
in the future it will also be like this the story, so don't worry, the bounty won't die

At the moment, it is no longer a bounty as it was a couple of years ago. Now everything happens in Discord, Telegram and is called an ambassador. Almost everything is the same, but only direct communication with the team or with their representatives.

today's rewards are no longer the same as in years past, many projects are now not so valuable, so for hunters it is very difficult to get the maximum profit, now Discord and telegram are more popular, while others are very unprofitable now, so there is nothing to rely on at this time this, in addition to the big account sig and reng program

Since 2018 until now there are still many bounty projects managed by developers who cannot give in a positive when the project ends even some of them just give up their responsibilities when gift giving takes place and followers have not received gifts on projects they have participated in, and they only reply to every comment or request we have with a bot account, This is certainly not something we want, we hope that every team that manages a project can appreciate us as bounty hunters who have promoted their project.

How many bounties have you managed? Hunters have been paid for how many bounties you have managed? The amount of scam bounties in 2018 was low. At that time, there was very little demand for one's own post or comment in Bounty. As a result, the hunters only had to share or retweet. But now the picture of work in Bounty has completely changed. In addition, as the bull run in the market, the number of low quality bounty hunters has also increased.

I agree with you, bounties will continue to exist to help people to grow in profits making in the community. Many people has achieved a lot of profits from bounties through the potential project that was all over the community for people to enjoy their benefits at the end of the projects. Many communities became popular through the bounties, people has tested and trusted for profit making. Bounty will remain strong and favourable to their customers that continue to promote those potential projects in the community. No doubt, people will continue to experience positive impact from bounties program in the community.

I think as long as crypto is still around then bounties will continue to exist, of course the value or income will be different, and from my experience following bounties is currently very difficult compared to the 2016-2018 period, and I once stopped being a bounties hunter from 2018 and started trying again a few months ago. then because you often see booming cryptocurrencies news on business tv.

Can you provide more specific details so that everyone can directly check if they want to know, because if you just explain like this, I think it will only create curiosity in everyone's mind. Because in essence the bounty is still not dead until now.

if the bounty is dead , I can make sure this forum will be quiet like other forums,
I think you can still look and search in the altcoins section to see which bounties are still running

If you're a legit bounty hunter and you're receiving shitcoins for the last two years, where do you think you'll go of course you'll stop doing bounty and will look for a real job or set up a small business however small it is unless you are doing it as a hobby, but if you expect to profit, you'll be disappointed, it's not as good as before, its like a lottery now and those who remain are like what you said multiple accounts and bots.

You would really be finding for it not to be worth or totally a waste of time and effort and its true that gone are the days into those times where bounties are still good to engage on but now
the rate of fraud projects and scams are really that rampant which if you are a bounty hunter then high likely that you would really be able to deal with these things.

Bounties isnt really that dead since i could still see projects who do continue to make out some ICO and surprisingly there are still people who do make join of these bounties
but of course you cant remove those bots etc.

More projects with different features and different purpose of usage is getting into the market. Some projects turn to be successful, and it is really hard to find which one gonna succeed and get enrolled. Some bounties were paying in stablecoins and with tokens listed on exchanges. When one enrolls into a bounty, he/she should have patience. Because, some bounties pay after few months as well as to get listed on exchanges there takes time.

When getting several bounties were paying with stable coins looks effective because guarantee will pay after bounty ended, I saw on detective campaign bounty right now dominance with stable coin payment using usdt or busd with bsc network. After bounty ended several week payment distribution on time and worth than join with several bounties with altcoin payment still not effective with project success on not and have effect for bounty distribution. Some bounties with altcoin payment when success listing just paid half when I got on several ended bounties campaign.

probably because most of it are a waste of time like promoting it for months then you will end up getting less than $20. Also the ICO has changed since there are countries that had banned such funding and the legit projects tend to go for centralized exchanges since its easier for them to get funded.

Not only that bounties attract bots account or multiple accounts, but the majority of projects these days give their bounty hunters worthless tokens despite having low participants in the bounty promotion. Bounties are no more bringing fortunes compared to the previous years 2017/2018. It's hard to find a good-paying bounty, that's why the vast majority of the forum members like to join bitcoin paying projects than bounties that pay with their token

the bounty has changed a lot now, I've also only been active in bounty for a few months, it's very different from what I felt in 2017, the bounty is so much fun with many legendary managers, very solid community, don't feel like you have a rival all are friends, all of us getting the prize matched everything went so smoothly that the money landed in our account pleasantly. But after 2020 I can hardly feel it anymore, if anyone is paying only a few are really paying, even if it is paying nothing yet is the same as in 2017. It's very sad.

Most of the bounties are not good projects and are gone after launch on pancakeswap or any other DEX and they only want to promote the project and don't want quality promotion also most of the accounts for promoting are also greedy for rewards that way they have no quality and joining every project, so I think bounties are not coming good quality but I hope in future may come good bounties.

Well, even the most trusted bounty managers back then are not that very active nowadays. Bounty campaigns have changed so much I can say. And of course it will surely attract fake accounts or multiple accounts like before, and for me nothing have changed so much about that fact. But I still believe that our current active managers are still doing their job right choosing bounty participants that doesn't post useless stuff. Also, I believe that they are still active in finding multiple accounts that are trying to abuse bounty campaigns.

And I'm not sure about quality crowd? what kind of quality are you looking for? because I can still see quality post here on some places so I don't think they are gone.

Sometimes the promotions do not reach the expected target, so the project is just abandoned, it's not just a pancake swap or DEX problem, but I think the developers don't meet the target in achieving the coin, the quality of the project will determine success or not, if they can't afford it package or create a good and binding promotion, but also not all projects are like that, and it is natural that some are successful and some fail

Some projects that do not reach the sales target then they decide to return funds to investors and do not force the project development if it does not meet the target. But nowadays many scam projects are releasing a fair launch on pinksale, the project does not set a high cap but 30-50 bnb but because of investor interest it has collected more than 250 bnb, such as the Yield360 project but after being released on trade on pancakeswap it has decreased to 90% of the sale price on pinksale. So be careful investing in new altcoins.

Very sad thing every year about the bounty that is felt by everyone. but will this continue and end up missing a bounty? many people are starting to stop being bounty hunters because sometimes they don't get anything from what they do. Pathetic.

I had a certain user PM'd me on an earning platform that I would recommend. I guess I am really happy that there are some people willing to find a way to earn some bucks, unlike some people here that keeps milking the forum for money without even contributing to any stuffs around here. It is quite sad, but it happens.
Not sure where the modern bounty hunters are now, but I am sure they are looking for other means of source of income.

Nowadays it's really hard to find good bounty campaigns and give big payouts. Most bounty campaigns promote projects that have no clear function
and are simply fundraising. After getting funds from investors, several project teams left the project, finally the projects ended up being a scam.
Quite a lot of bounty hunters get paid fake tokens, where the tokens are never listed on any exchanges. There are still good bounty campaigns,
but there are very few of them, and we'll have a hard time finding them. Therefore, people have been in the crypto world for a long time, most of them
are not interested in participating in bounty campaigns anymore. It is sad that the current state of bounty campaigns, it seems now is not a good choice
to make money through bounty campaigns.

Not dead for bounty hunters because many are still joning but you are right they cheat because if they only have one submission they can get pennies because these tokens are useless in the market they are considered shitcoins good projects are doing IEO and launchpad where they don't need promotion to get funded, there's the possibility that there will be no bounty campaign anymore because investors are losing trust on these new projects.

The funny thing, if you assume bounty is not good to join now, why you are involved in a signature campaign?
Do you think the signature campaign you are joining now is the only good project in 2022?

I don't want to discuss the quality of new projects. But some bounties are good enough, many people earn some money from that bounties. As long as you can determine which bounties that are good to join, you won't regret promoting shit projects. What you need is to have the ability in analyzing the bounties, choose a potential bounty only. Don't join random bounties, without analyzing them first.

I think most of those who can provide quality comments leave because now there are many scam and deceptive projects, maybe they don't like this, feel what they have done is in vain so they decide to leave this world of bounties. Moreover, in 2018 the existing projects were good and profitable, much different from now because of the many scams, although many projects were promoted but it did not rule out that one of the promoted projects was a scam.

Most of quality posters are joining the bitcoin-paying campaigns. Though I am not saying that a lot are trashy in bounty campaigns but they have less restrictions when it comes to accepting participants. So for others who feel they are not getting fair compensation with these bounty programs, they are sticking to btc campaign even if the pay is not that much. At least, they know they will get their payment as agreed. No delays, no hiding from the participants at the time of distribution, no waiting in vain.

I think not all alt account are controlled by one person maybe the owner of the alts account will find a person to do posting and then they will devide the tokens that they earn from the campaign. I cant imagine how to do posting if i have 3 or more btt account, i cant even speak straight english i am not fluent in english, if there are person who can used 2 or 3 account maybe that person is from U.S or a person from country who use english as ther dialect. However the bitcointalk moderator is now different they are now more strick and they banned spammers so don't worry we are now slowly back from the old days.

I joined the bounty since late 2017 and until now I still follow the bounty even though it's not as active as it used to be and not as busy as it used to be, if now looking for a good project we have to read and sort out the roadmap whether this project is good or not

Now it has become more difficult for bounty hunters to work, the bounty pool has decreased, more scammer projects appeared, but this does not mean that you need to give up on bounty. It's still a great chance to get tokens from probably prospective project for nothing. In my opinion, the number of participants in bounty campaigns is much lower compared to 2017-2018. And keeping track of fake accounts and deleting them is the bounty manager's problem.

its a cycle in my opinion, there is a time we will in golden moment and there is time we will bad condition. from 2017 till now on we still find many good campaign that handle by bounty manager with good reputation. no matter if we find scam project as long as we didnt invest our own money ,maybe we loss in time and energy doing all task.

Every poster in this topic promotes a project in his signature. Isnt it a proof that bounties are not dead? If you open unread posts, you would see that a lot of bounty topics appear on first page, even after several page refreshes. I would say that bounties are not dead, they are less profitable than used to be. That is just what we see. We should ask bounty managers to answer topic question, after they answer how many proposals to manage a campaign they get. I think we still have a lot of bounties and they are not dead, bounty managers simply became more selective and dont manage each and every project.

It must be acknowledged that there  are  so many Bounty campaign currently running which are not seen  before.  In 2017 Bounty Payments are available but now a days the scenario is different. Most of the program is conducted by the scammer.  I think a large number of bounty program running  in a same time is one another problem for the hunters. They cannot investigate just working.  However, in order to pay the Hunters for their labor, several mods are trying to guarantee to work where the Hunters will have no doubt of getting their reward.

Now Crypto is growing, many campaigns should be increasingly successful, it gets worse, very different from 2017-2018, rarely for now we find quality projects and can produce something big, we are also wonder the cause of the decline of existing projects for now caused What, even though Crypto is generally developed from previous years

in fact, in 2017 the bounty was very good and even received a very large payment different from the following years but now throughout the year 2021-2022 the bounty is back again good even though the payment received is not so big but many are successful.
That way I think for now following Bounty is still very wort it and that's a sign that Bounty is not dead yet.

It's only about the number of allocations and the value of tokens that are different every year so that's what makes the difference from previous years to date and in 2018 there were also not many successful projects even though some were successful, but only partly because the average was too run into a scam in the end.

I think the bounty still exists today and there is not even a difference between the past and present bounties except that many projects are using the BSC platform today, just like in the past, fraud still often happens to bounty participants and I think that is an unavoidable risk for us bounty hunters, but we can minimize the fraud by researching and studying the project before we join, even though there are several fraudulent bounties but I'm sure there are still many legit bounty bounties that we can now participate in on the forum.

I also think so because for those who have participated in several bounty programs in 2017 until now, they definitely know how the bounty conditions are every year and in general every bounty born in 2018 - 2019 is very much not successful even though there are some of them that are maximally successful. .
But when entering 2020 until now I see more successful than scam ones even though the payouts are different and on average not all of them are big.

I wouldn't say that the quality of participants has changed so much since 2018, it's really hard to find a good bounty company, and sometimes you just waste time, but here you need to understand right away that no one owes anyone, you can find a good bounty company, but this is already very rare.

Indeed.

The reason why many people pull out from the bounty campaign, is because of scam project and stories get on feedback, after working, which just a few project is legit, and bounty campaign has become a game of luck, where just few that succeed after bounty campaign ended to get a rewards. 

What?
The populations that enrolls in bounty campaign is far more than before; i wonder how come about the population and if it was so then i don't think something good would came out then earliest 2018 and 2019. but today there are hundreds of participants enrolling in particular bounty sometimes i wonders if there will be a good payout from such campaign.

Currently, bounty are one of the best ways to earn income without having to spend capital first, but what we need is time to make good posts, but nowadays it is very difficult to find good bounty, even if you are, the bounty make requirements for its participants and provide limited slots for each account rank, therefore I don't think at all if the bounty has died,

Most difficult to know which one trusted or scam bounties campaign project because when joining with bounty campaign have exchange listing but later faced difficulty for distributing, better looking for bounty campaign have escrowed and not worry with payment distribution but hope if payment on altcoin based on bounty project distributing on time, but if use stable coin on USDT keep worth but need to be fast for payment process.

New bounties have come to market daily and team announced high bounty reward to get attention from hunters and most of them has intension to fraud with people.  Escrowing bounty ensure payment but most of those are shitcoin and never listed on exchanges but in 2018, there were also same cause after recent crushed of market, people was afraid to investment and good Project failed, cause lack of money

some bounty managers use escrow to ensure all participants will receive their reward no matter it penny or good amount, so far i know budget or fund used to attract more participants join, so more people spread it more chance to get succeed. in 2018 we have different condition which market participants still fully come from tech investors not insitution that have their own  interest to gain profits.

bounty is not dead
it's just that currently there are so many bounty projects that are scams and some end up being trash after entering the market, but there are still really good and quality bounties, it's just that it's hard to choose which ones are good and which ones are scams.

Almost 50% of the bounties that exist now end up being priceless, not to mention that there are so many scam bounties after running for so long, for now it is very difficult to find quality and good bounty projects, so many people are starting to doubt how the bounty will go in the future, if nothing changes at all, it is not impossible that the bounty program will have fewer and fewer fans who will join in the future

The current Bounty campaigns are in a very bad position. There is not much payment available for working. Payment was received by working in 2016-2017. Such payment cannot be imagined now.There are some people who come to work in the forum who are always doing damage to the project and the owner of the project is not getting any result as expected.Because of all these multi cheaters the misery of the forum has started today.And maybe it won't be possible to get something good from the forum.

Bounty isn’t dead because i see at least a few bounty campaigns are launching in every single day so still you can find hundreds of project in the market but it’s rare to find a legit project of those projects. I don’t think right now Bounty is the best way to make money, because it seems waste of time where your payment is not guaranteed or you will get worthless token at end of the day.

I didn't see that, so you're right my friend, that the bounty doesn't die, of course, if the bounty is a scam, it's a lot compared to the quality one. but that's the reality that is happening right now and we can't avoid it, but just live it and try to look the best and not get a bounty scam. although the possibility is not very easy to get but there is still a glimmer of hope that there are still good ones.
I and all my friend who have been in the since 2017, hope that this incident will happen again, there is always hope for that even though we remain patient because change will always happen. at least now there is a fix with escrow to avoid non-paying bounties.

Bounty isn't exactly dead, but it can't bring big rewards almost no more. A lot of scam and trash campaigns so if you want to participate in bounty campaigns first choose projects managed by reputable managers on the forum and always do your research before you join. Avoid wasting time with pointless campaign battles.

An experienced bounty manager will not guarantee any profit. It only reduces the risk that a bounty campaign turn in to scam.
The most important thing is the bounty pool and its allocation.
Social media campaigns have long been flooded with bots, so they are the least profitable. However, with good allocation, you can still make decent money from video or article campaigns.

Many bounty pools and allocations cannot be guaranteed by the bounty manager because there is no escrow service. But for the bounty manager, I really trust @julerz12 because the bounty allocation is already stored in the escrow service, so token distribution will be guaranteed to all bounty hunters.

Bounty indeed will never die in my opinion, but the only difference is the payment, in 2017 until now many things have been different, in terms of payments and bounties which were very successful, even now the interest of people participating in the campaign is quite large compared to 2017
Not only that, many managers who manage bounties also see an opportunity, if the price of tokens is expensive, they make payment rules in dollar terms, so that it doesn't have any influence on the price of expensive coins, or vice versa if the price of tokens is cheap they make rules for sharing prizes with tokens, here are no big projects that bounty participants can take advantage of now, not to mention many projects that are scams after being followed

look at brainboss also, alot his project also escrowed . by escrowing token reward atleast bounty hunter have certainity they will paid no matter how much its value in market while distributed. julerz, hhampuz , brainboss yahoo, irfanpak, bounty detectivenow be top bounty managers that care to their supporter. learn from previous mistake , escrow was obligation for each campaign.

Of the many bounty managers you mentioned, all of them have escrowing token rewards, but there are also projects that they hold fail in the market, but what makes the difference is that when the bounty ends, each manager has a responsibility in managing after the bounty ends, the most different is bountydetective, every project he manages always limits participants, both social media campaigns and signature campaigns

Limiting participants makes it possible to calculate the minimum amount we will earn from the campaign. In my opinion, this is a great idea and all managers should start doing it.
Escrow is an even better idea because it guarantees the payment of the reward.
The only risk the participant runs is that the project may fail, but this is never predictable.

to prevent project owners from refusing to pay campaign participants and I need all managers to require the project owner to place the tokens in escrow and for escrow to release the tokens as soon as the campaign ends, without having that type of bad behavior of thinking: "we will pay the campaign participants after some time the token is on the exchanges to prevent the token price from falling too much" this is a bad thought, this is the same as dictatorship because they are deciding what the owners are of tokens (in this case I am referring to the participants of the campaign) must do with their tokens. because when project owners need publicity they don't get arrogant, they get pretty nice because they need bounty hunters, but when they already get money, they start with these kind of price-preserving stories

Not all the bounties of those bounty managers are escrowed. The payment distribution of some bounties is handled by the project teams. But we can trust those bounty managers because they have a good reputation and are very experienced in managing a bounty. They must do deep analysis or research before they decide to manage a bounty. And they must inform us immediately if there is something wrong with the projects. So, we don't waste much time working the bounties. So, not each bounty managed by the bounty managers can be successful, surely there is the possibility of failed bounties among them.

Escrow is a must but there are teams which do really dont like that kind of idea but instead they are telling BM's that they are the ones who withhold those coins which is unfortunate.Some managers might
that oppose but there are no options or choice to make since they are also been hired by a particular project.So its take it or leave it kind of deal if you do ask me and since there are BM's which do deal
on what the team do likes then they dont really have no choice but to abide from it and also even though coins are been escrowed you cant still ensure that you would make decent money with it.

What you are experiencing is due to what many real bounty hunters have gone through. Working without getting rewarded is very discouraging and I can tell you that over 70% of bounty campaigns don't pay out or payout useless tokens.

Real people will tire out and look for better ways to earn while the bots and multiple accounts users will continue doing bounties hoping one will pay that would be worth their efforts.

Restricting bounty participants is very appropriate for managers, because this can increase the acquisition of opinions for participants, ideas like this should be followed by other managers, so that the interest of bounty participants is more focused and profitable, project payments through escro are more secure than payments made by managers , although not all projects that have escro can be successful

Trusted managers as discussed earlier, they maintain the reputation and quality of the bounty, but also many managers do work that is not in accordance with the bounty rules, with various reasons they give. Therefore, for now we have to be selective in choosing bounty projects, instead of wasting time doing unpaid work, at least we should join a bounty program managed by a reputable manager.

another common problem is that payment deadlines are not met, and often by the time of payment tokens are almost worthless.Often managers cannot force teams to meet deadlines and this causes problems.You should always understand that all bounties are like a lottery.

I don't want to believe that bounty is dead. It depends a lot on the manager handling the Campaigns. Some bounty manager are very lazy in verifying and ensuring that accounts are real and not bot. There are still very good managers like Brainboss, Julerz, Hamphuz, Irfan, etc these are quality manager who very committed to excellent work.

yes, I agree with you that I really miss where before 2018 there were many quality bounty managers by holding bounty events that could get results.
lately I've been following the bounty, but it's not as good as it used to be now too many bounties are scams.
offers an event after we perform the task when payment does not receive anything because it is managed by a bot.
I hope the bounty can return to what it used to be where we can get the appropriate results from the events held.

The manager as you mentioned also very often ensures that the bounty project team is very good so that the participants who take part in the bounty can get paid according to the time they spend, so that the benchmark for success or failure of a bounty does not lie in who the manager is, but on how the project team is willing to keep its promises and willing to pay accordingly.

That is correct. Some of the bounties today are not worth the time to invest and do the task, and most of them are becoming scams but it will depend if it's a trusted bounty manager. Also, some of the rewards of bounty us using the altcoin or their token which does not have a value yet, and you will need to wait until it is added on the exchange.

You are right,this is the major problem in this situation.I am also notice minimum 5 accounts per person.Why the people use more  account i don't understand.Where is the problem when working with an account.Very good payments were available before Bounty.But now the interest in Bounty has decreased a lot.This problem is due to additional fake accounts.

It is not that the rewards are dead, in the forum currently the rewards part is always active and the best way for those who want to join and not waste time, do so and look for the best forum reward administrators, only in that way it is somewhat safer.

The rewards in general are not totally withdrawn, in all the nascent projects, whether they are cryptocurrencies, betting house sites or casinos, they have the options of earning when working for them, I think it is a matter of knowing how to search well.

Yes, we have to admit, actually this is a problem that keeps happening and efforts are being made for improvement, since 2017 this has also happened, but in its development it is getting more and more. This problem is now very complicated, because coupled with the bounty obtained is too small, causing many people to intend to be able to have multiple accounts.
cannot see from only one side at this time, all must also be viewed wisely.
but I hope that one day there will be a change and the golden age of bounty will return again, remember there is always a change and the bounty is not dead.

The bounty is not over yet, I still see new campaigns being created everyday. But I think bonuses are no longer the way to earn big rewards like 2017. Most of the bounty now are scams, trash, they are low value or even worthless.
Participate in bounty campaigns from reputable bounty managers on the forum and always do your research when joining. Don't participate all the projects and wait for your luck, choose carefully and focus on 1 or 2 projects you will get your well deserved reward.

Unfortunately it's true, I haven't been following bounty campaigns for a long time, I got many good rewards in 2018 with bounty campaigns but now it's rare for a good bounty campaign, most of them are scam and if you get something it's paltry worth nothing and not worth the effort What you're doing for it, of course except for the bounty campaigns here in the forum because there are a lot of very good ones.

Yes, that's right, the current bounty is like faucets claim in 2016, the income is very small, I also participated in the bounty in 2017 to 2018 and I can earn which I think is big even though at that time my rank was only a member, now earning $100 per month is very difficult and bounty the current campaign is hard to predict.

There are still quality bounty hunters but the number of fake bounty hunters has increased more than their number. As a result, the number of quality bounty hunters seems to be low. The number of fake and scam bounties has also increased. As a result, quality hunters are no longer having interest in working.

when compared to 2017 it is indeed a small achievement for now, due to the increasing number of bounty hunters, small rewards and many of them being scams. but how else is the current climate like that, especially for $100 per month, maybe we will get a longer fee, after the price distribution is down, and of course it doesn't match expectations, but I stay loyal here by getting a little money, I use it to invest

With Escrow and Limited participants, almost all the bounty problems will be gone, too much of bounty hunters? Use limited participants, too much of failed payments? Use the Escrow strategy, the only problem left that we will be dealing with will be scam projects and that's on us bounty hunters to do good research to avoid wasting your time.

The reason is quality hunters will not do work for just pennies in most of the bounties rewards are worthless so I feel quality hunters will not waste their time for meager rewards and apart from this Bounty Manager should set some rules to get the quality work. Some people just copy-pasting others' stuff. If the Bounty Managers set some parameters to qualify he would get some quality work from the hunters and BM should take strict action against those who are using multiple Ac and copying others' stuff such hunters should get negative trust so that other hunters will not do such spamming.

Maybe it's because certain reward campaigns don't pay their participants or they're too strict, and because some participants are simply incompetent at their tasks. In comparison to previous years, the cheap cost of mounting a campaign did not attract investments. I notice a lot of fake accounts here, and some of them don't seem to care and only think on how they will get paid. :'(

if we pay attention to the current bounty campaign it is very sad because it gets inappropriate rewards and has been wasted time. and it's true that there are currently a lot of bot accounts with very minimal post quality. and I'm sure a lot of people who have quality have left the bounty campaign because the bounty campaign is no longer generating enough income.

Quality projects don't usually create bounty campaigns.
In 2017-2018, there were campaigns of very high quality projects.
There are usually low-budget or scam projects in 2021-2022.

well, that's because so many people are trapped and working on bounty scams. So, scammers make a lot of projects beyond the original project. however, there are some bounties that are still worth today. however, comparing it to the past, nowadays very few bounties actually have a high value. however, I hope that the bounty will come back victorious again. if people already have standards and are good enough at doing research, then the project or bounty scam will also decrease. especially if the project already has a market, and uses escrow.

Well it's quite possible because the reasons are quite plausible, they wouldn't do anything dime for a dime too :D and just let people who are really looking for something small do such a thing.

but for managers it might be a separate rule even though there are now a lot of managers who are quite good in my opinion and there are standards that they apply

The main reason for this might be due to the quality of the projects.
Earlier the projects were of good qualities for which many people show interest in the projects.
Now a days all bounties are made for the projects which are mostly scam or not of good qualities.
For this many investors have already decided not to fall for the scams and hence they don’t participate in the bounty.
I guess now people are only joining the ICOs or token’s bounty which are backed by some famous people.

It won't decrease but instead it will continue to grow, but it's true that by doing good research you still have a chance to pick good

bounty that has value, not that much, but still decent when the team continues to progress. Unlike way before, where there are good bounties

that gives supporters a good amount of profits. Hard work and keep doing your DYOR may allow you to gain from this venue of business, not

all but still good enough to spend your time.

The quality of bounties is diminishing as a result of both the reduced value of the project as well as behavior of bounty participants. IMO the quality and value of most project reward is discouraging. Even when tasks like writing article is done, the reward is still very poor. Only about 30% of the campaigns so far have make tangible rewards, others have disappeared / some totally ignore bounty hunters as if they never did a bounty campaign. While some bounty hunters do not follow the rules of the game, the bounty managers can handle them appropriately, but the issue of project owners refusing to pay bounty hunters or making very poor payment should be looked into. Some campaigns are completely a scam.

The bounty is still alive mate, no one has died, everything is still going well,
 it's just that we decide for ourselves, there are many new projects and many new bounty managers,
I suggest you follow a bounty manager who already has a good reputation, and you will be paid later ,
of course you have to do it.

Not going well i would say but there are still lots who had been trying to abuse of and make use of bots on dealing with some soc med bounties which its really that obvious if you do tend to look on it.

I wont say that its totally or 100% shit since there are still projects which are really that worth but finding one out of thousands projects in the market then it is something you would saying for yourself

that it would really be that useless but if you do hit the sweet spot then making money is easy and your work did really paid off.

From the past, the bounty has remained and there are still many new ones so that everything is still running and regarding the number of new managers it is also like a spinning wheel everyone will be replaced because many old managers have retired from managers so there are many new managers and that's no problem in the slightest because all new projects will also need to promote the project to gain interest in investors.

Bounties aren't dead, more potential projects were getting launched often. Nowadays the rewards have been limited along with the delay in distribution to keep the market stabilized. Anyhow people who are new to the cryptospace find it good, but the old users still expect the days of ICO. Those are days when people received good sum of rewards which gave good profit during the 2017-2018 bull market.

Bounty still not dead but just less reward distributuon bowadays and have several bounties campaign limited for participants joining. Maybe after reward drop than usually have several Bounties Manager prefer for limited participant for effective when reward distributing. Actually many bounties hunter want back to era 2017 until 2018 but right now still worth with joined bounty campaign what ever kinds is it from signature until content campaign keep profitable trougj not spent capital when early joining.

It is true that bounties still exist today, but it is very difficult to find bounties that provide great rewards, most only provide small rewards.
Even though the bounty hunters had helped promote for a few weeks, but the results obtained are very small and do not match the time given
by bounty hunters. I understand why some people say the bounty is dead, it's just an expression of disappointment bounty hunters with the small
payment received by bounty hunters. There is even a possibility that the reward tokens obtained will become waste, because they do not enter
any exchanges. So bounty campaigns are not so profitable now, very different from what happened in 2017/2018. But maybe in the future
it will change, we will never know, because for me the crypto world is always full of surprises.

Bounty managers are doing their bests to drop new bounties daily. These include them bounties spending time pouring their whitepaper, trying to weed out fake and stupid projects

Due to the low price of the coin when it was launched, it had no definite value, aka trash coin, even though the initial establishment of the coin was to carry out future programs but, it was difficult to develop, the bounties were difficult to determine a move with a low value.

In the old days when during 2017-2018 a lot of new projects started an ICO and bounty campaigns but that year the participants are not as many as this time. This time a lot of new projects only give a worthless token and many of them end up being scams since many new projects only want investor money. I agree when bounties are not dead but more like it's not that good anymore like the old days.

During 2017-2018 I think still have many participants of bounties campaign but most ICO project success and trusted with bounty distribution on time, but right now although have few participant always late and waiting price drop drastically for distributing. Have many campaign not distribution yet until right now and become scam bounty project. Right now many participant on signature moving with service bounty than altcoin bounties campaign.

well, as far as I know, the bounty is still at the same potential. however, now we need to do some extra research before investing or joining the bounty. It is highly recommended to join a bounty that uses escrow, or pay using stable coin. as far as my experience goes, quite a lot of bounties using escrow pay off pretty well.
however, the potential to earn huge profits by supporting bounties with token payments also has potential for now. however, it requires continuous research, because it is a new project and could become a scam at any time. try to make observations about the team, concepts, and more, and don't forget to join their telegram. choose the bounty as if you were going to invest in it.

alot potential bounty recently launched , or atleast in this year we see several campaign give worthed reward for its participants. doing research on projects whitepaper or actively in telegram group finding important update  will make us know is it good project or not.

some bounty manager applied escrow to several campaign they managed, its give us important protection about distribution atleast no matter how much it worth later. bounty hunter give positive responsw when they know bounty token reward escrowed,

I've been into bounties for quite a long time and keep participating in them. Recent projects that run bounties and where I took part did not bring superior results. I could say that I've got a standard payment for social media - about 20-50$ for participating in every social media campaign. I've noticed you have mentioned "potential bounties", but I havent found such lately. Maybe you could please share some project names, that have high perspectives?

That is largely because most of the bounties these days are almost scams themselves. How many times have we seen bounties scamming the promoters after work and they refuse to pay or some cases pay way below what was intended? All these are making people stay away from Bounties or try to partake in some you still feel might be worth it from what you read about the project. 

People who stay away from the bounty are actually also not wrong because maybe there are many bitter experiences that he received in the past for the time he has used into the bounty, so staying away from the bounty and trying to find a better one is everyone's effort to take advantage of the best moment to achieve the profit target. bigger ones at the expense of more time.

Not all bounty campaigns that pay out rewards aren't worth it buddy. There are still many bounty campaigns with great rewards. I don't think if the bounty campaign doesn't earn anymore. I see that since last year until now, there are still many bounty campaigns that generate great income, in fact there are still many quality people so far who are running bounty campaigns with proper rewards.

I have participated in bounty for a long time and monitor bounty payout every year nothing disappoints unless you join bounty without any knowledge of analyzing potential projects, bounty projects are very risky as there are too many scam projects so keep doing your research before you waste time promoting scam project.

It's very difficult to analyze a bounty project, for me personally following a bunty project fortunately there is a project with a good concept and if analyzed 80% has the potential but in the end it's a scam like the citizen project, so I conclude that the bounty project is unpredictable as long as you don't give up quickly if you follow bounty project then scam doesn't mean the bounty project is dead so don't despair keep joining other bounty projects.

It's going to be like that in the upcoming days and now that we are in a sort of non-greenish side of the market, there would be more scam bounties offering plenty of tokens but would turn out to be just a free advertising in the end and wouldn't pay in the end.
I am not sure why people are still pursuing this kind of thing to be honest.

Because many people expect a fair pay, but indeed it is difficult to analyze which bounty is good we all don't know and the average bounty is a project from the start that was built so it's good luck if the bounty promotion and after that it develops in the future, now we can't predict it.
If you want to keep getting paid, I think it's better to follow a bounty that has escrow like julerz12, I see all the bounties that are managed get a guarantee from him, all who participate must be paid.

alot project being scam due some reason, maybe developers team didnt pay participant meanwhile token listed in any market and even its price soar. i see several campaign run paying their supporter when got alot success in market , maybe citizen could be one of them, it is really sad our effort promoting their project got nothing , meanwhile their token rise. give up only facing one scam project would not make us find huge projects some day, our spirit and consistency needed  while we working in crypto space.

The Joy we derived in doing bounties back then in 2017 base on the reward we earn and passion we fine in working in this forum. But currently most member have left running bounty because of the scam project which we come across this days. Just imagine running 20 different campaign and at the end you will only get paid by 2 or more which will be less down 20% of your effort. How can one still have interest of doing more in the form.
That's why most of our respected legendary members and hero members run promotional campaign for companies directly Instead of running some cheap bounties .

20$ to 50$ for social media campaign was good amount for us.  better to never complaining about reward that distributed from developers team. if we agree to join in any campaign, it mean we accept all condition that maybe happen later, especially about token distribution that may delay or its value unworthed.

I think can't earn about $30 until $50 with social media campaign but different witj bounty manage by Detective. There have limit participants on Detective social media campaign and give good reward, but when have social media campaign without any limit participant difficult to earn until $50 on this time. Bit never give up we are bountu hunter participants and I think still have chance with bounty era like 2017 where getting higher reward.

Bounty campaign is same as company. And if you experience the routine of company you will understand how bounty works. You are correct for your brief explanation. Bounty earn but the earning is from their target. Each of the bounty that establish is on target and some of them does not realize their target. Their target is their rewards. People that is running bounty as i said before has their views and participants also knows what their achieve so vice versa good ones end with good reward and bad ones goes with failure of unreward

I think it's true because every personal decision can always be considered before joining any bounty for now, so there's no need to complain and regret when something unexpected happens in the bounty suddenly.

I think a lot of real people just went into other more lucrative jobs as a lot of bounty companies have turned out to be scams lately. As for bots, there are indeed many similar cases now, when there are more bots than real people, but apparently they compensate for the lack of people in this way. But in general, the situation on the market of bounty companies is certainly not very good, much worse than in 2018.

Bounties now had been infested by lots of bots in the market which is really that rampant I would say but there are still people who do engage on bounties because of the hope of getting huge money on their tokens that had been gained on which we know that there's still no assurance that you could really get from it.

It's not totally dead because if we do tend to see on how many bounties that launch everyday then you could actually say that it is really still that relevant or still in demand I would say.

I dont think bounty hunters not doing good all the time ans also bounty manager doing good for checking bot and here is always proof of auth for checking bot. So its not the main thing people lost trust in bounty main thing is lots of fake project coming with bounty and they scam hunters after there project private sale ends!!

yes that's correct. but we also have to understand the meaning of the role of bounty hunters who are part of freelancers, there is no legal ties to the project you are promoting even though in the end the project is a success in a large market... the fact is that they do not fully guarantee that you will be paid after the sale ends. Yes this is part of the risk. there are many scam projects but I also don't think that bounty is dead.

The cryptomarket is operating over the trust factor, so is the new projects that reward bounties for the promotion done to the specific project. Same as the past more number of projects were getting promoted regularly, but only a few succeed. So, it is good to receive rewards whenever you get out of a project. Even if it doesn't benefit you, surely it'll be beneficial in the future for sure.

Genuine project are reluctant to give out a bounty campaign because fear their token getting dumped after disbursement and also they wouldn't want to risk not paying and keeping to the promise made because they know the same community that Participated too boost the campaign can as well pull it back down too.

Almost bounties campaign need to create with #PROOF AUTHICATION OF  REGISTRATION that mean not any chance how to be cheater, depending with multiple account controlling by one person have tread discussion report it and right now keep effective. But I worry with several bounties still running as fake project when bounty ended never received payment yet. Not only bounty hunter scam by many project but also have investor when joining with private sell have been success but never have schedule for listing coin after long term waiting and bounty hunter worked almost several weeks promoting project but not received payment yet.

I appreciate the way how managers manage to escrow bounty. Even CryptopreneurBrainboss, bounty detective can be add in trusted list who escrow most of bounty. But as op says, good bounties are very few. Escrow will be worthless if that are shitcoins. You wouldn’t like to received so many shitcoins after done your tasked! Escrow is always good but need to analysis before join even if that is a escrowed bounty

I find Bounty Detective as a hyped manager. They have a reputation, charge a lot for management (just a prediction), but due to huge amount of participants, they campaigns are not profitable. I suggest to pay attention to CryptopreneurBrainboss campaigns. His bounty projects looks more promising. Also julerz12 is cool. From my experience, more often I receive rewards and they are traded on dex from campaigns these two manage, than from BD. I also remember, that campaigns from https://t.me/Aladd1nCenter (not a commercial), that distribute rewards to Coinsbit or Azbit, practically never scammed participants.

Yes, it needs to be appreciated with BM who have struggled to do before bounty to ask to do Escrow first, to prove the seriousness that bounty that will be carried out is really serious.
At least there is hope that it can be proven that there is good intentions to keep paying. Although it does not rule out the possibility like you said that it could be that what had been sent to Escrow was Shitcoin, so finally the same as fraud.

So Escrow is a form of responsibility that really needs to be continued even though it might be that later there will be shitcoin. But this is a progress that needs to be continued and if it can be added with full trust, for example Escrow must be in the form of USD that can be distributed if there is a deviation.

So bounty is not dead but is trying to continue to improve even though it may take time and all need to learn to continue to change.

Bounties sessions are still crowded, this proves that bounties are still alive, but for payment of course not as big as Bouuties in 2017 which at that time when I joined the signature campaign with a member level had earned more than $ 500 a month, while now it is very difficult for $ 100 per month though though Full member, an influential factor is a difficult project for a collection of money.

The bounty hasn't died, friends, many bounties have just made dollars, although now the bounties often change, change the rules, I mean there is a bounty that announces changes in regulations when the bounty is finished, such as the distribution time, they make changes to the rules, distributes gradually and many members who join the project are disappointed but not all such a bounty project.

Thank you very much, normally the rewards that come out of some projects are very few and those that pay well are too few, especially now that there is so much uncertainty in the market and the projects that come out AIRDROP style are not like in 2017, I think the trend of the projects will move towards buying in pre-sales and waiting for a public sale, normally that is what most people are doing, of course you have to have capital to be able to take the risk.

This so far is what I have seen in a glance that I have made to certain projects, of course not in depth.

Until now the bounty is still alive but only the payout factor has decreased compared to 2017 during the Ico hype, but certain bounty projects are still generating high income such as the last bounty hex and vulcan getting an estimate of more than $1k for the lowest income.

Bounty isn't dead yet, but it's clear that it no longer gives hunters the rewards they deserve. Participating in bounty campaigns just wastes your time and effort even many projects don't distribute the bounty after the end of the campaign.
I agree that there are still some campaigns that still give hunter rewards but very few, my advice is to only join bounty campaigns that already have escrow service.

I think there are a number of reasons why this has happened. one of them being because the bounty workers kept getting screwed either by bounty managers or the project itself was a scam or did not succeed.

They are still there I believe but most higher-level accounts now chose the type of Bounty they participate in, that is those Bounty campaigns that are run by well-known BMs and that are also mostly escrowed, and few that pay in BTC/Stablecoins. Of cause because of what bounty campaigns use to be, there are a lot of bot accounts hence making it look like it is a waste of time but there are still few good bounties offers here.

Compared to the past, bounty campaigns and payments are greatly reduced. Scam project spawn rate increased. However, sometimes participating in bounty campaigns of strong projects contributes financially. These projects make regular bounty payments.

ico projects today are not as numerous as in recent years, even if there are ico projects emerging today they are mostly pure scams.  (I'm not saying all ico) this is why there is a lot of negative reaction in the mainstream media to influence bad reputation on btc or crypto.  In the last three years there have been hundreds of ICOs that have turned into junk coins or scams.  so you should try to find opportunities other than being a bounty hunter

If the bear market keeps eating deep in crypto, we are likely not to have or see bounties again in this space because no project is willing to run a bounty that will end up not having investors. Bounties are like promotions to attract investors.
Although now, the pay is poor compared to the previous year(2017) when there are fewer participating bounty hunters

maybe because the current bounty allocation is not as big as it used to be so many people leave the bounty and the bounty looks dead..

yes maybe only a few are here but most of them no longer join the bounty, they already have a lot of capital and they spend more time in the market
(like me, back again in this forum since today because my eyes is hurt to see the market now :D)

I don't think it's about allocation, maybe because a lot of scammers give out prizes or results that aren't worth the effort. Bounties are still in demand and there are still many loyal ones who don't leave bounties, but it's different, now it's no longer with altcoin bounties, most choose signature bounties with clearer payments such as btc, usdt. It can be seen in the gambling thread, almost all of those who are active have or follow signature bounties, proving that bounties are still in demand but not altcoin bounties.

It may not be out of place to say that bounties are not as lucrative as they used to be and as such are not attractive enough to quality account holders who may have moved to other endeavors they consider more worthwhile. Though they're are still lucrative bounties but they are very few and may attract the few that are still in the the space.

Things will get roughed up in the bear market for bounty hunters as many new projects will have a harder time raising funds successfully, if a bounty hunter is smart he or she will only join projects from bounty managers that use escrow payment, this is the only sane strategy that can save bounty hunters in a bear market.

Take a number of bounties you have taken part, divide it to number of rewards you get and compare this number of number of listed and traded altcoins and that will be the answer to topic question. But the most correct answer will be "value of bounty campaigns are decreasing". Number of campaigns is decreasing. Bounty budgets are decreasing. Number of bounties that distribute  is decreasing. Number of listed on exchange bounty projects is decreasing. Bounties are alive, but barely breathing. Few more years and they would be completely dead.

In my opinion the golden age of bounties has already ended a few years ago, their number has considerably decreased and the legendary trusted managers have largely disappeared, the new projects that come out on the crypto markets prefer other forms of advertising, the few that they still use the forum they pay very little and there is no certainty of their eventual future success, we need to look for other forms of income with crypto like mining, trading, investments

CNDLchaindotorg has a bounty program right now. I already made 25k and I'm going to make another 25k CNDL by testing their new DEX.

you think new accounts can join the bounty while now most of the bounties provide limitations for participants, for example a minimum member or full member. some even had to get merit in the last 120 days, while getting merit was extremely difficult. then what are you looking for? quality account? quality in what? if you are looking for an account with a high rank that joins the bounty, it must be a little because a good bounty is not released on this platform. different from the first where the bounty is 100% paid. In fact, at the end of the day, many are looking for airdrops because they think it doesn't take much time (if, for example, the developer doesn't pay).

But you will be rarely seeing it for now as the bearish trend was also affecting the intention from the developers to create the marketing proram. I can't deny the bearish market was giving impact to the whole of sector in the crypto started from the demand on exchange site, panic sell and many more. I don't expect a lot from the bounty these days. The global economic condition was also very bad as well. This is also affecting the intention by people to use crypto as their investment.
They consider the risk in the crypto

That's the more reason why you shouldn't just jump on any bounty Campaign that is being launched. A large percentage of them are scam especially those being handled by the project itself, they might end up not paying you.
Having said that, despite your due diligence, you might still end up falling for a scam campaign.
It is becoming tiring these days. Too much exploitation going on.

bounty is not dead now bounty is a place to collect dollars because now many bounty projects are paid in USD so now join bounty can be used as the main job to collect dollars.

Not. I think for now there are still many projects with prizes available, but the prizes given sometimes don't match the work done. or the prizes provided by bounties today are mostly trash tokens, so many bounty hunters leave this forum and focus more on real work. I think so

Most bounty Project this day are scam, a lot of managers or directors organized project for the purpose of boosting their social media platform and most of this project are being participated by hunter and later at the end discovered it's all fakes.
Some Campaign come on board with huge reward to be distributed at the end of the campaign and later never meant to be. All this has bring discouragements into the industry. As a matter of fact bounty is now meant for newbies.

Surely a lot of those scams are now hiding in the bush during these bearish times for obvious reasons that the coins are cheap and they would make investors buy a lot of their tokens expecting a high returns and you know what's next already.
I never bothered checking bounty section yet, but I am pretty sure that there are many scams there.

In the bearish market bounties are getting worse, I guess it's due to so many altcoins aren't being released in the middle of the bearish, considering the fact that maybe the bearish keeps anyone from further investing and they are having the stance of wait and see.
It can't be denied that bounty isn't as flourishing as it was, but doesn't mean bounty couldn't even score you quite the earning, I guess it's just how you choose a bounty from a great project instead of just randomly selecting a bounties.

If you are a bounty hunter, be very careful in choosing a bounty program.
If you don't want to waste your time and other resources, maybe, go for btc- paying campaigns if you can fulfill the requirements.
Even if the payment is not that big, you have assurance that you can get what you worked hard for.
Bounty programs may promise good returns but only few of them can make it in the trading market.

Reward for bounty campaigns today is much lower than back in the days in 2018 so the real bounty hunters feel it wasn't worth their time. This leads to what you've described, only people with multi-account or bots are still in the game and make a profit from it.

Thats why I like some new type of airdrop which I found, airdrop for a role in discord but you dont know for what they are giving that role if you are interested the project is reptile chronicles, advice or fitches how to get that will be cool

you are right, the reward given is now valued at $ value not the % of tokens being promoted on the bounty. obviously the value of the prize has been pegged and it can't possibly be more or even less, it's even bigger.
if with % tokens promoted it is likely to be of high value more can happen if the tokens are successful in sales.
reality and not avoid the fact that you say about multi-accounts and bots, but actually if it is limited it might reduce or indeed pay with promoted tokens.

What do you think, are bounties dead? It is something to consider.  I think it's a little too early to say if bounties are dead. The whole cryptocurrency industry is still very young, but things have definitely changed a lot over the past few years. If you can find bounties with reasonable requirements and active moderators, you might be able to use them. Otherwise, I'm not sure if they're all that useful anymore.

I decided to compile a list of bounties and see if the same trend I've observed on the platform was also happening at the bounty level and what did I find? You guessed it—bounties aren't dead, but this new reality may require some adjustments from current bounty hunters.

Younger understanding, does the bounty still earn like it used to? like 2020 and below. Because that year I saw that the bounty had a lot of demand.
I myself have not followed the development of altcoin bounty for a long time, I prefer signature campaigns with clearer payments, such as btc, usdt, and the like. Over the past few years, bounties have lost a lot of interest from hunters, at least it can be seen from the Bounty (Altcoin) board.

bounty will never die and it will always appear every day in this forum. unfortunately forum moderators don't moderate scam projects on this forum. which means providing more space for scamers including (fake accounts) or certain individuals are very free to use this forum to promote their projects here.

Bounties are not yet dead more likely it faded as this year quality projects were gone and most of all are scam. I am still participating bounties now but I would say the qualities of the project were gone now, only few are left that's why I found it time wasting effort unlike few years back that bounties were booming and hunters were earning decent rewards compared today.

Which one are still good? I can barely find any campaign worth participating. It is almost impossible to find a campaign that is not managed or created by Newbie or Jr.Member account, and that greatly increases chances of wasting time. If previously high ranked forum members were trying to find a spot in signature campaign with BTC payment, then now number of such campaigns is greater than number of campaigns with payment in altcoins. By reading through "are bounties still profitable" kind of topics, I havent found a single post where hunter share experience of earning more than a hundred.

Currently, there are indeed many bountyes present but not of high quality, every time they solve a problem they do not respond even just a bot account that always replies to every comment, if you want it to be like in 2018 I think it will be able to repeat itself because at that time those who manage the project are always active at all times and they can always give the best for the participants, and currently only part of the bounty projects we can rely on.

I don't think the bounty is dead until now. Although there are some fraudulent bounty projects, there are still many successful bounty projects even though they are run by managers with low quality accounts. So far, there are still many qualified managers in carrying out bounty projects.

For the bad situation of the market. Many projects have postponed their projects. And many projects do not dare to come to the market seeing the bad condition of the market. So now no good bounty campaign is coming to this forum at the moment.  And good bounty managers have stopped bringing campaigns. If the market is good, it looks like a good bounty campaign will be seen again

I believe that bounties aren't dead yet but since the market isn't in a good shape, it's not worth our time because most of them won't succeed during this market situation. Also, scammers are using bounties to scam people so we must be careful when choosing a project. Bounties that we had before are too different from the bounties these days so we shouldn't expect too much.

You have a point but i think not all accounts are low quality there are still a lot of good accounts here that can give an amazing comments that is very informative to newbies, a lot of legendary and hero member most of them are high quality poster, and we can learn from them since they know a lot about crypto, unlike newbies they are still in the learning stage so we cannot expect a quality from thier post.

Although the majority of bounties that exist today are likely to end up being scams, because many new projects are created without a clear purpose.
Therefore we often find bounty hunters who get reward tokens that have no value at all, even so there are still some good bounties and give
satisfying rewards. So we just need to be careful in choosing the bounty, make sure we do research and analysis properly. So we can filter which
projects are worth promoting, that way we won't waste our time promoting bad projects.

It's not easy for new projects to be successful in a bear market situation like now. Because most investors choose to invest in old projects which are
safer. So there are indeed many bounties that fail to reach the target and are ultimately unable to pay the bounty hunters. Therefore, when participating
in a bounty, I choose a bounty led by trusted bounty managers, in order to minimize the risk of promoting bad projects. Indeed what you say is true,
that so that we are not too disappointed, never expect too high on the bounty payments.

I don't think the bounties are dead. Its just because of the bad market conditions, no one wants his project to be ruined. As soon as the market situation improves, we will see many new projects and new trends.

I am using https://t.me/btt_bounty this bot to check new bounties. It is a bit laggy and dont post info immediately, but still it notifies about every new bounty topic created. So far I see only newbies, cooper members or brand new accounts create bounty topics, or lets say users with only few posts on the forum. I dont trust them, because it is easy to create another account and run another scam campaign. According to this bot, a new campaign under management of more or less reputed manager appears once every one or two weeks, and this is a sad result.

bounty condition following market condition too, if we see good market situation alot bounty campaign will occur in this forum and most of not dumped hardly or maybe stable on presale price. today we didnt see alot good campaign and only btc payment in service board that exist. altcoin bounty campaign need filtered strictly especiallyy that didnt use escrow. possibility scammed was so high.

how to prove the account is a bot and controlled by one person?
i think you can't say the account is bot because of low and inadequate post quality because most of the people come on this forum just for money and they make posts just to complete task of bounty. on the other hand low-ranking accounts make low-quality posts because their knowledge of the crypto world is still very limited.

A manager who manages everything for a bounty participant and even a manager ensures that the participant receives payment. But there are a lot of managers out there right now, with the exception of a few reputed managers, who don't have the ability to pay Bounty Hunters even if the team doesn't want to. So in order to get the payment, while joining the bounty, along with doing research on the project, it is also necessary to see what kind of reputation the manager has.

Because those managers escrow the bounty campaign payments in advance, so that at the end of the bounty the project team can no longer make any drama about paying the bounty hunter.

The brother Bounty is not dead yet. In fact, no one wants to invest in the market now that the price of Bitcoin is falling, so Bounty is coming very rarely, but some service bounties are coming.  When it comes back to normal, Bunty will be back as usual and the manager is very sick because they can't translate because now often the scouts have nothing to do. The market is in bad shape so no one wants to invest in this market.  It will be done and we will be able to work as before. InshaAllah, thank you

But even when the market is at its peak like last year, the bounty still lacks fans. I see this more as a gift, the reward give often doesn't match what was done. In addition to bounties, there are also airdrops and the fact that airdrops are now more in demand, that's because the task is not too difficult and the reward are beyond expectations.

Kindly check this link section mate, https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=238.0. On this thread link section you will see there are a lot of new projects arise here in the cryptocurrency. If the bounties are dead now, surely there will be no more new project campaign that will be post on this section anymore dude. And since, every day or every week there was a new projects arise here in the forum, it means bounties remain stand here and managed by differenct reputable BM(bounty managers) here to this forum platform.

Bounties don't die, but this year honestly I personally have never had a single project that paid more than $200 for doing bounty work, especially signature bounties. because the bear market is starting to come, it's difficult to find investors that affect the bounty participants.

In 2018-2019 we had a bear market and we had about 5-10 new bounties every day. Now we have only 5-10 new bounties every week, and most of them are managed by a no-name, which makes participation in them risky. If we look only on crypto prices, then they are better than they were in 2018-2019, however there are less investors than those years (just remember how in past projects managed to raise millions, and now their hard caps are several tens thousands only). Bounties are hardly breathing.

I think true the bounty time ended and there has no big money from it. Even i am still work in few bounty which is 5-10$ my salary target. Anyway if the green market will make up soon then could be possible good days for upcoming bounty.

Bounty campaign being affected by the market trend. The developers wanna use their money for the promotion if the market was in a good condition but look at how bad the market right now is. I meant you must also aware if these days so many people being scared to invest their money into the crypto. That's why developers are holding themselves to run promotion campaign. I see that some campaigns were pausing their campaign due to the market condition.

Not just the market trend. Bounty campaigns are also affected by time as people slowly smart up in the way to handle and give out rewards. You rarely found an overpay bounty anymore since rates are now fixed to some extent. Bounty managers becoming more professional also affected it.

Well I have seen many options in the Bounty part or section, in fact there are some campaign managers who not only pay in project tokens but also pay bounty hunters with BTC, this is something that can reduce fraud in the forum, because most people who make projects in the end are not given and the tokens under which they paid do not have a growth as expected and the projects die, something that many bounty hunters do not get what they were looking for, which was their payment , in this it still exists but you have to know how to search, I recommend following the recognized campaign managers in the forum.

Bounties are not dead but it does decrease in term of quality and reward, in my opinion. Now, only bounties from betting sites pay decently, the rest of the bounties like signature, social media, telegram, content,... doesn't worth the hassles.

Bounty is not the same anymore as it used to be before.Many things have changed alot from the quality of bounty participate to the projects been promoted.There are so many scams and low quality projects nowadays you can easily work very hard only to discover at the end that the project is not genuine.On the other hand many people have joined bounty program unlike before thus decreasing the quality of the work in general.

of course the project founders should see something happen now, because the current season is very unlikely to release a successful project is not very easy. only in bull season is better the scamers can be successful in that season. if to buy altcoins at the bottom now it's good for the most basic maybe there will be more follow-up dumps

I think bounty isn’t death yet but the idems fo rewards quality very low even if you got 100$ from a bounty then you are so lucky hunter. Personally this year i got 300$ something from bounty which is very low amount compare my hard work. Bounty is my part time job so i can't avoid it even bounty will profitable when start bull market. Because bull market is possible for good quality bounty.

Very low in terms of;

1. Project quality we do have today
2. Utility
3. Legitness/ credibility
4. Payment success

Surprisingly if you do look on bounties board or section then there's still lots of projects which are still really running up and surprisingly
there are still lots of bounty hunters who do come after on joining up these bounties believing that they could really still make out some significant amount of money
which i couldnt blame them off because it does really give out that kind of chance but of course hitting  the right one is really just finding a needle
on a haystack which is the toughest challenge of all.

When the market is bearish it is very difficult to get high paying bounties even though the bounty tokens are listed in the market the prices given are so low that sometimes it is not worth the work we have done while working on the bounty but as you said bounty is a part time job in order for us to get any benefit, we must enjoy it and continue to do well so that there is one bounty that can benefit greatly.

I'm sure 90% of the people who post on this forum are because of following bounties, and I think the bounties here are still appropriate and appropriate, those who have participated in bounties from 2016-2018 will certainly laugh if they see the current bounties paid, but we must be aware that the pay The bounties depend on the project creator because they are also difficult to collect during the ICO.

Indeed currently the number of bounty projects is decreasing and the payouts received by bounty participants sometimes do not match their expectations but that does not mean the bounty is dead or over because this is only the effect of declining market conditions.
Currently a lot of projects are postponing listings due to bad market conditions, so I think it's only a matter of time and when the market recovers everything will return to normal.

The reward from bounties certainly depends on the money that can be collected when ICO or IEO, in my opinion in 2017 is the best bounty because participants with member levels can be earning up to thousands of dollars in a month, at that time many projects can collection up to hundreds Less than a week, the number of scam projects makes investors afraid of investing.

Right. Since the market plummeted a few months ago, many projects have been delayed in launching and there are even projects that are in progress when the market situation is good but once the market crashes the project fails because it does not reach the predetermined target. Therefore, I see that it seems that a good bounty campaign will be seen again in the near future especially as the market situation seems to be improving.

it seems that getting here the bounty is not as good as it used to be. Now the bounties are very difficult, such as long campaign duration, low pay, long market listings, and long distribution. very different from what we experienced in 2017 2018 if the tokens have entered the wallet we can sell directly, even so many good bounty projects to follow.

market condition didnt support for new developers team build new projects. Investors prefer to hold their money into fiat to avoid big losses if support new projects. Less projects launched , less bounty campaign will released too. Maybe while crypto market recovery , we will see good campaign occur. Its normal cycle in crypto market.

Joining project that are manage by trusted managers is not or never an exception. Bounty managers can not guarantee the success of a project, they only prepare and manage the campaign. In most cases, the disclaimer note is boldly written in the bounty thread. The success of the project solely depends on the project team. I participated in some bounties handled by some of the most reputable managers in the forum and earn nothing at the end due to failure of the project. Bounties aren't worth the effort this days honestly. You can participate at your own peril.

Leaving bot accounts aside, I believe that the bounty era in which many claim to have made a lot of money may have come to an end. Perhaps in a few years it will return. As of 2018–2019, the forum's user base has rapidly increased, which has led to a greater number of campaign participants. Nowadays, sharing the same amount with more than 1000 individuals (multiple or bots accounts included) is different than sharing $50,000 with 200 participants. Even after taking all of this into account, some bounties are still bad projects, especially when the team refuses to pay and flees with the hunters' money. Perhaps bounties' glory days are over; hope they come again.

Maybe bounties are still here, it's just that they transformed themselves into what we call "giveaways" today. There are giveaways that require you to perform a few simple tasks to get them, like the MAXX Finance one for 5k MATIC tokens. It's a simple bounty where you like and follow on Twitter and join a Telegram account, nothing complicated.

Also, you could say that beta test programs are often bounties by a different name too.

Talking about the Bounty campaign is dead or not, we can assume that the lack of interest in investors or participants will cause the bounty to slowly disappear, because there are many scam projects or some projects do not pay for the services of the bounty manager and affect all participants, regarding investors are very doubtful. to invest funds in bounty projects, one of which is the number of fraudulent projects that make investors think twice about investing their funds, the solution is to use escrow and bounty managers are more assertive to carry out their duties to manage campaigns must use escrow so that there is no fraud or disappointing all parties including investors and Bounty participants..

That is the very saddest part, but if the bounty manager set an conservative rules in all participants we can build again a trust ambiance and good project begin to jump in here, because they will see the quality, genuinely of the bitcointalk forum.

I dont think there is lack of interest from investors. People are always seeking for opportunities to earn. There is a huge decrease of new projects or ideas. Instead of bringing something new, developers prefer to create 1000 new meme coins, or make another metaverse nft game with "do2earn" option. Instead of creating something new useful, it is easier to take nft marketplace template and dream to earn a lot from trading fees. There are a lot of money to be invested, but there is nothing good to invest in.

This can not be actually ruled out as to why bounties seems dead. The ability of some project teams not paying the hunters after the end of the bounty is making many people to lose interest in participating in bounty. On the side of hunters, only few write good articles enough to convince the investors while most of them spam and their by discourage investors. Both the project team and hunters are killing bounty gradually.

actually there are still many accounts on this forum that are owned by qualified predecessors..

it's just that there may be many new accounts that make them reluctant to actively contribute to this forum.
and I see things happening now on bounty projects, project managers don't really judge in terms of quality of comments or adequate responses.
that's why there are so many low quality accounts.

Nope lol..

It's still there but gets saturated a lot by many other "bounty"

If you want to look enough you can find a good bounty in the form of "testnet" "beta user" etc. It's more about participating and got reward by contributed directly to the program rather than your usual shill on social media.

Maybe everyone has their own saturation point, resulting in more looking for a new atmosphere or sometimes there are also those who are more focused on work in the real world. It is undeniable that the comparison with previous years is far from the current situation. Or it could be that if you look at the current market conditions, it can be said that it is too risky to open a new project.

I think the bounty is still there but it looks like there are many fake projects that want to make money with the projects they are working on. Not only that, these projects are now showing that they also don't have start-up capital to create projects and they only rely on investors to fund their projects, when their projects don't reach their targets, they slowly disappear and their tokens are no longer valuable. That's why the current projects are not like the projects in 2017 and 2018.

I'm sure as long as there is cryptocurrencies, there will always be bounties, new projects always appear even to reach hundreds in a month, they certainly need marketing and in my opinion the easiest and effective is in this bounties forum.

Well, maybe it's an exaggeration to say that the bounty has died, because until now there are still quite a lot of bounties that are running even though in terms of rewards, they are not as big as they used to be. it's just that, I also feel a pretty big difference with the past and current bounties. Well, maybe it's because this year, there hasn't been a bounty profitable enough that they can say that the bounty has come back to life. but I'm pretty sure there will be bounties like that again. basically in the crypto world, it's constantly evolving, and it also takes a lot of advertising to get people to know it.

Bounties are very much still active but the lack of good projects in the space is making the whole thing look like a waste of time, too many fake and scam projects are using bounty hunters to their own advantages and run off later without paying.

Bounty isnt dead, look at the bounty thread, there are so many bounty programs that come every day,
indeed not all bounty projects end well, many are scams, and many don't pay us, of course I experience it all,
but here we are trying, and keep trying.

most of them already catched by fake account hunter and day by day bounty campaign require high qualification participants  and bounty manager set strict rules for all. its good progress so developers team get positive impact to their marketing which is this promotion will reach to right target. unfortunately while everything goes well , we met fake developers team.

2018 was not great either, it was bad but after 2018 is the things takes really horrible every year for bounty campaigns. In 2017-2018 where bounty campaigns are still manageable with how you can actually filter the bad ones from your research was a good thing at that day, so people could actually get something from these projects with the rewards are actually decent and yet people at that day starting to abuse multiple accounts for doing these bounties to maximize their earnings which is really sad to be honest.

And again in 2022, things are looking worse each day where the projects are actually failing one by one and it only few of them remains but yet again it will end up in the same misery again.

Bounty is not dead as what other said above many bounties came every weeks manage by old and new managers here in forum. But if you participate in that bounty not all project will pay you after you promote, and we all know that many project nowadays ends with scam but not all there's other project who will pay you after.  And before we joined their bounty then we must do some search about that project if we need to trust it or not.

Maybe what you mean is a special bounty for the telegram group. Indeed, many bot accounts are managed by someone just to join the telegram bounty. They fill out the form and then join the group. They are not active except for a few people. So the current bounty manager changes the conditions, they ask to make a report on the results of posting on telegram. This will fill in the gaps in the telegram discussion about a project in progress.

Whatever we say about the bounty depends on the market. In bear market should not expect good bounty at all. But very few projects may come and pay you your dues. For example, a few days ago there was a campaign called Solid Bank where BM kept payment escrow. But the number of such bounties is not available except that. Bounties are not dead but good bounties are comparatively lower.

The bounty is not dead because we still see a lot of threads on this forum and there are still many new projects registered so that it proves that the bounty is still running but in the current condition there will be many projects that fail to get investors so that when working on the bounty many projects are failed so that BM didn't pay for our work and that didn't mean the bounty was dead, so in the current condition, be more careful in following new projects so that we don't experience losses when participating in them.

You are right, bounty is still available and every day there are many latest bounty updates but we are hard to find the right bounty because many projects with low reputation but now many bounties have been upgraded for escrowed payout, so we just need to do some research to join the right bounty and ensure that the token can be traded even if it is only listed on the dex exchange.

Regularly more number of bounty projects are reaching our forum. In the past anything we join used to provide us with good rewards. Nowadays the new projects are reaching the market with big plans, but beyond certain point majority of the projects weren't able to progress. So, for the sake of adding tokens to the portfolio one can join bounties. If not you should not think of the rewards. Just leave it, if lucky your holdings might multiply in the long term.

A surprising thing that there are still some projects who do keep on launching almost everyday if you do tend to check out bounties section then we could really see that there are still some considerable numbers
when it comes to launches but im pretty sure that it wasnt really worth anymore to join up considering the number of scam and fraud projects then it wouldnt really be worth after all the efforts and
work that you have done or the task that had been completed.Even into those projects who had been handled out by reputable bounty managers doesnt really assure the success
which means its up to you whether you would still push through on doing bounties or not.

When there are too much people in participating in anything even apart from bounties. You will see a lot nonsense. I also do bounties and I can relate very well.
Although, it doesn't mean bounties are dead but it means there are a lot of shit projects or scam projects bounties out there that doesn't care about thier bounties participants because they are just making the project for rug pulling sake.

alot bounty campaign ended with scam and we could not blame anyone due of this. even to bounty manager that want give us best job to earn money. while cryptocurrency booming and alot investors come here, there will alot fake developers will take our money by creating fake projects. we have been see this many times and we should not worry about it. only research and observation will bring us to real projects.

I saw a lot of complaints from the participants of the bounty campaign, and it was directed at the manager named Formula Bounty, and it's a shame that some of the projects he holds or manages, of course they smell like fraud and even all the participants are still working on them, even though several projects have been held. ended in fraud, all participants did not get paid at all, so my question is whether the manager did not look and was more careful to accept his duties as the manager of the prize campaign, so that it could run well until the distribution of funds was sent down to the participants, but I saw that it was already they do it too often

Actually, the bounty will never die, if only the campaign manager is more serious about the projects that offer their services, or uses a third party, so that the project can't go anywhere by using that method.

A lot of people enroll with multiple accounts in bounties now a days but that's why bounties aren't dead now. There are some great projects which run bounty and give a decent rewards. We should analysis which one is the best project and join that bounty.

Personally, my opinion about the bounty is. Now, when the cryptocurrency market has fallen very much, accordingly, all bounty projects are also standing still and waiting for the next round of development to begin again. Investors are also needed for a successful project. And to attract investors, you need a promising business plan. And now it is very difficult to find investments with such a position in the market.

As the market is running in a very bearish position and may go further down. And no good news is coming, therefore the bounties are also affected.new project  are not launching and most of the projects that have come up in this bear market have faced failure. Due to less new projects, the bounties Running in a very weak position. But as soon as the market goes up.  Then new projects will come up and bounties will become stable as before.That's why bounties can never die۔

Yes, bounties were very profitable for project, investors as well as for hunters, but now bountis payment are not being paid to hunters most project scams in the end. Now there are very few bounties that actually pays.

As far as i'm concerned, the bounties are currently dead if one is lucky and has a high rank such as hero or legendary can manage to make a maximum of $ 100 a week with casino advertisements but it is not said that it will be paid and then it is very little in comparison to the payments / bounty of 2017, it is worthwhile in my opinion to look for other methods of earning

This time around bounty has shifted from being the real thing that people aimed for back in 2017/2018. There are lot of Scam projects with valueless tokens they offer. If it was the early days of bounty, some hunters would make up to $200 or more from one project but of recent it is difficult to even archive up to $100, I think that's is what is really leading to the multiple accounts managed by one person and bot accounts which is really again the rule of the forum. but It's more profitable to contribute to the forum with quality post/comments instead of participating in some sort of scam Bounties

I do ask myself that question. Bot bitcointalk.org accounts are the norms these days, even when bounty managers try to limit their usage. In the end, honest and hard-working bounty hunters get very little rewards for their efforts, time and data. Its not palatable but then that is what we witness in this crypto bounty milieu. God help us

All the campaigns going on now seem to be bringing new boys to the forum with new accounts.There are some projects that new guys are bringing to the forum all those bounty campaigns everyone joins and works but later they get scammed and leave.All the big managers who used to bring bounties now no longer bring any bounties but one or two managers are now working on promotion campaigns.And all campaigns are coming from new accounts. No such actual payment is now available from them.The Bounty Forum is pretty much on its way to destruction.

I thought that current noticeable problem with bounties are not scam projects, but the amount of useless, uninteresting, not promising projects and idea. Why do you think there are a lot of scam? There are not so much scam among bounties. These projects simply dont raise funds. They dont have funds to distribute rewards, they dont have funds for listing. No one needs those projects that run bounties, no one believe that we are in need of another 1000th exchange, marketplace, nft game, metaverse and etc. That is why projects abandon their ideas and vanish.

There are large number of bounties campaign originates but i think that now a days there are multiple  of bounties which are just for their own profit and does not give any better results to those individuals who are parts of these bounties. I think that many bounties become dead due to such a bad situation of market currently and also because person does not explore but participate blindly so in this way they just misuse their precious time.

Yea, if you are looking at most article in internet about "How to earn Bitcoin fast" then you will find more about bounty campaigns(signature, social media campaigns etc) on Bitcointalk in those internet articles. That's why most of new people joining in this forum is just for the sake of earning money only without to even learning about what they read and what they write so far.

Right. I agree with you that you should do your research first before joining a bounty campaign so that we don't get caught up in a fraudulent project. In addition to conducting research on bounty campaigns, you must also pay attention to the manager who manages it because there are also managers who manage bounties who in the end do not pay campaign participants.

After doing bounty research, what do you expect as an outcome? Is project worth investing and promoting? Yes and no, because I see no new idea on the market. I came to the conclusion, that instead of wasting time on doing a deep research, an overall research is enough. There are not so many bounties right now to select where to participate and where not. The are not big rewards right now, so it is either you get few dollars or dont get paid at all. It is enough to scroll the page and be more or less sure, if the reward for participating in this bounty gonna be few dollars or you will spend time on nothing.

in addition to opting to participate in campaigns managed by reputable managers, you can also participate in bonus campaigns that are paid in usdt, nowadays i see there are some campaigns that start paying with usdt instead of tokens
although the reward is not too big but getting rewarded in usdt is also safer than tokens, a lot of worthless tokens from bounty campaigns, many tokens are not listed on the exchange, they are almost useless and the hunter's efforts will be in vain

This also goes hand in hand with cryptocurrency trends from time to time. in 2017 when the big bull happened of course everyone entered cryptocurrencies and at that time the markets were all equal no one was in first place, but some markets have their respective advantages and sufficient communities to trade. but now binance no. 1 it is very difficult for new projects to be listed there, I think they are tired of getting tokens with inappropriate fees because of the current crypto conditions.

2017 was a great milestone for the crypto market. many new people finally enter the market with the new knowledge they got from the hype. it creates more and more new projects and requires a campaign for its marketing.
and more and more projects are successful, making scammers finally take advantage of this. it leaves some bounty jobs to nothing.
now the situation is different. more tokens will be escrowed to convince participants. Now everyone I think is more aware of the campaign and market conditions.

Of course, a scam project is a risk that we must face if we want to participate in the bounty campaign.
Therefore, before participating and joining the bounty campaign, as users, of course, we must be careful and thorough in making choices to avoid these scam projects.

According to my analysis that for now there is no better quality Bounty (Project) so many people who have experience leave this forum. However, later when there is a good or higher Quality project, I'm sure they will return to take part of the bounty given by returning to being a project participant and hoping for more luck.

In my opinion, the bounty is still there, but the quality is very lacking.
it's just that currently there are a lot of bounty projects that are scams and some end up being trash after entering the market, but there are still very good and quality bounties, it's just that it's hard to choose which ones are good and which ones are scams.

I would say not scam or trash, but useless. What current project try to be ? NFT marketplace ? What for when we have opensea for example. Another meme coin that will make holders rich ? We are all aware of dogecoin and shiba inu. Another metaverse ? It has been a year since they appear, even first metaverse projects are not as demanded as expected, then why create another one. Game that uses blockchain ? Are there lots of crypto gamers in general? Those who wants to play, do it on PC or console by playing AAA projects. Those, who wants to earn by playing crypto games, already saw much more chances in trading. Another blockchain ? We have a lot of them already, but people prefer to use not more than 5 most popular of them. Crypto wallet? People will use combination of Trusk wallet + metamask anyway. In general, cryptocurrency dont offer nothing new today.

I now see that there are much fewer projects, as this is due to the situation in the cryptocurrency market. And the bounty has remained and continues to remain in the cryptocurrency market. Here are the scammers, in my opinion, has become less. The fact is that the scammers realized that now, in order to receive awards, you need to participate in the project and fulfill the requirements. The time when scammers wanted to get a reward just like that is over. Now it's time for the participants to correctly fulfill the conditions of the bounty.

In my experience bounties are not dead. Now the market is too bearish and also may down. There are too many projects are launching but most of them are failed and one of the reason I someone use multiple accounts to join bounties. But bounties still live

No
they are not, is just that, they are many face project, which make bounity hunter, should be tired

In 2018 the crypto trend began to develop, especially the DeFi project known as ICO which was launched based on Ethereum smart contracts. Many investors spend their funds to invest in ICOs, but not a few of them suffer losses. But at this time the launch of a new project is not something extraordinary, because many projects fail. So that investors will invest in certain projects that have a clearer future.

Indeed, campaigns that pay with usdt are better than tokens because the income is clearly what the hunters get, especially the bounty campaigns that are paid in tokens sometimes don't match what the hunters expect because a lot of tokens are paid by the manager or team when the price has dropped.

Bounties don't die. If you visit the bounty thread, there may be hundreds of projects launched every month, so this condition makes investors confused in investing and choosing projects that have a good future. New projects are launched very easily, so those who don't have a clear target also launch projects. In addition, the meme project has kept a lot of money stuck on their tokens.

Bounties are still available, however it can be difficult to distinguish the genuine bounty projects from the thousands of trash. Therefore, before supporting a reward initiative blindly, it's crucial to do your research. Avoid those Bounty projects if you discover bots, bot accounts, or numerous bogus people. Another true fact is that successful projects don't require rewards to be promoted. Many good projects were successfully exchanged without any rewards.

Looking at how bounty hunters do nowadays, I think they are not gonna tired anytime soon.

If we are just looking at the quantities of the bounty campaigns in this forum, then that's just a pile of treasure hunters to hunters while they can just spam ton of messages over the social medias and "hopefully" getting paid in later date, although most of the projects these days are falling apart. But still most of the hunters are blind and they just enroll on anything for hope to get something decent in one of thousand chance.

With bounties people should not have big expectation. Just because a bounty gave a good return we should not expect the same with every bounties. If a person fix this in mind, then surely bounties aren't dead. If not, we should have the patience and the mind to risk by holding. Some might turn very big in the long term or go valueless.

Good bounties seem over as the market itself is on the downtrend, however, I believe the cloud will clear again and the sun shall rise again. Better days are ahead though.

What the hell are you talking about? do you know how big 5000BNB or $1.5 million is? Who do you think can offer you such a big bounty? Even for you to go back to the golden age of bounty campaigns to earn 1.5 million is not easy let alone now.

Nowadays, it must be said that the bounty campaign is dead because it is no longer profitable, if any then only very little, I must stress to you that it is very little and not worth your effort. Most people have left bounty campaigns because they are completely junk, the rest who join social media bounty campaigns are spammers.

This is very good news for bounty hunters. Finally they are going to be paid what they are expecting to receive after long weeks or months of work. The more campaigns adopt the usdt payment method the better for the projects themselves, because they will be seen with more legitimacy since developers are investing real money on their projects, instead of valueless tokens, it will be good for the bounties' ecosystem and of course it will the most benefited ones are going to be bounty hunters who will finally have access to real earnings opportunities.

At same time it might be a chance for bounty campaigns to filtrate the number and quality of participants, so a lot of spam and multi accounts can be neutralized.

Bounties are not extinct, but the ones that are currently being offered are not profitable because, as a result of the market crisis, some managers do not permit the donation of money, and those who do so find that the value of their tokens has fallen so low that they cannot be sold profitably. Therefore, in my opinion, it will be better and preferred  to play an active role in bounties for rewards once the market has regained.
