Bitcoin Forum

To all greedy bounty managers this message is for you. You know we, bounty hunters, have allocated our time and effort to do our tasks in exchange for rewards. We have done our job so we have right to receive our salary. Why are you so greedy? You wanna become rich fast? And then what? You have all the money in this world and then what? Money is not everything.

I have been working on the Bitnautic project and now it has achieved hardcap after a long time. But our manager was locking the topic and I could not check the stakes and how to get tokens. I am really disappointed with such greedy people. I think that the creator of the ICO project should have a strict requirement for the bounty campaign manager to create credibility.

I actually dont get it.. If you are targetting a bounty manager, come all out on it. Dont just blame every manager for the suffering you got from 1 or few managers.
we have seen amazing bounty managers in the forum and due to them bounty hunters still have a job to do. If you are scammed by some bounty manager, best thing is to report them in the meta thread along with proofs. Put negative trust so other people dont get scammed. shooting arrows in thin air would not help anyone.

That is why he uses an adjective GREEDY to exclude the GOOD bounty managers from his rant. BUt I like the idea of reporting those greedy bounty managers with proofs of course because you cant just file cases to the police without evidence.

Yes you are right they are so greedy because right now my previous  campaign was I think it is scam and the campaign manager saying to my message was the campaign owner doesn't  replying him so this is not our responsible but the campaign manager who responsible in everything and in the telegram this campaign  manager was ignoring our messages so what we are thinking. They should be responsible after we taking time effort to post  at promote their project.

Some  Bounty Managers are too greedy and they want to earn extra from our works. It's the unfair thing that is happening to bounty hunters. To prevent this, we should choose trusted and high rated bounty managers to join their campaigns.

Using 'GREEDY' word does not make it right, Greed is part of human and everybody has it.
If you were working on something and expecting the result from your work but they did not give it to you after you did your work, that means they were stealing your money or a thieft.
also before joining that work, people should do something called 'research'. looking at the project itself, the manager and everything else.
i found a lot of project that was created just for money and after the sales completed, they ran away.

if you could not find an evidance, how could you say them 'GREEDY' ? that does not make any sense

Maybe better to join only to bounty campaigns of trusted and respected bounty managers and ignore the rest. Its our duty as a bounty hunters to include the bounty manager to our research before joining bounty campaign. Nothing to blame but ourself if bounty manager run after the campaign.

To pose a question to the OP: if 'money is not everything' as you state, then why are you participating in the bounties in question?

Just checking your consistency.

Not all of them are greedy there are some bounty manager's truly reliable and trustworthy person. This kind of situation without paying for bounty participants is outdated and often happens. We can't prevent the people who are greedy in money, but we can find a trustworthy bounty manager.

You should take the same level of care when you join a bounty program to invest your time as you would with selecting an ICO to invest your money. Only choose campaigns that are either managed by a reputable company or choose a manager with a solid reputation before you make the decision to take part.

without a proof, you have no right to give an accusation to all managers and I think you only gave a false accusation that triggered riots in this forum. you better provide evidence or other facts and information related to the problem you are experiencing and make your complaint become a thread on the reputation board.

What your problem buddy? Not receive payment or just get small payment?

Problem 1 : Not Received Payment Yet?
Many thing that affect of payment issue. Eventuality, ICO is not DONE yet, team from ICO project have not yet send Bounty Manager payment for bounty allocation, ICO is not success (not reach softcap / hardcap), etc. There are times bounty manager can't do anything if ICO Team not send payment or ICO is not success. Just smile and calm down the hunter just for his stake.

Problem 2 : Get Small Payment?
What your rank? What bounty task do you participate? How many participant in that bounty? Back to you choose bounty program. You must check again the rules, allocation, term and condition.

Not all problem blame to bounty manager. If ICO is scam, do you still blame him? Just enjoy your free coin buddy. If you want more earning, become bounty manager. If you just complain get small earning, why you just become hunter?

It is not correct to blame and label all bounty managers, they are the same people as we are, and among them are responsible and irresponsible, thinking about the future and karma and who do not care at all. If you have been deceived, it is better to tell this manager everything you think about him, and you don’t even call him a name blaming everyone at once. I disagree with you, you can not blame everyone.

Its already our responsibility too before we deciding join the bounty task. We have to check our Bounty Manager background too and researching their coin project too. Im a part of bounty hunter too but if their project is failed to reach the softcap and your reward doesnt send to your wallet then you call them not competent too. I thinks its our responsibility from the first time when we decided to join the bounty task.

You are not clear with the point you are making, just generalizing everyone is wrong, the way your post is structured it seems you have a personal issue with a bounty manager or you have something to hide and you don't want to call a spade a spade. If you have an issue with a manager, name the person, I have seen many bounty managers with red trust because they are either greedy or promoting scam projects

These managers were having a lot of problems with the participants have come from the inside of the team. I have seen so many cases about this one. Have you seen about able project? the team was running away with all of the money and the bounty managers has been erasing all of the result in the bounty campaign

As bounty hunters,we are also responsible for what happen to us at the end of a campaign to some extent.Do not join a campaign all because the project proposal in terms of problems it out to solve looks good or because the project white paper is great,we need to make research of every project we want to join,be sure that the team and the manager have good records.

Bounty manager in first place not suppose to be in charge of token distribution, I think the team should and the stake should be open for all to see when bounty finsh and there should be a room for complain in case of mistake, some bounty manager might even be the one that are adding fake account to get reward too cause I have seen a bounty that almost every participants are double and they all get stakes when it can be seen that they are scammer but he award stakes to them all, another thing is when project hit hard cap but refuse to give hunter their token like "OIO" has refused to give investors their token since July that they hit exchange till now in the name of kyc and many said they passed kyc before August but yet to get their token
And the token has drop 90% from it market price and who is trading the coin is my question if investors and hunter are yet to receive token, and they made $50mln in their ico but claim Hunter token is locked for three month cause of usual dump and here the dump token without them received , I see no reason an exchange should list a token that are yet to distribute token to investors n hunter.
They are only promising that investors will get their token after listing in second exchange , what has listing got to do with investors getting their token and as we speak the CEO is doing honeymoon somewhere after the ico funds received and abandoned investors

" https://www.facebook.com/Acidut"

There are many great project that really want to help humanity but fail because they didn't get enough funds but the fake one keeping getting people funds and attention , we all need to fight this and just stop investing in project that has no meaning no matter the income. And the worse part is that the bounty manager don't even care in hunter get paid or not cos he clearly state it that he has nothing to do and all his project has similar issue in distributing reward.

Sometimes it is really hard to make timings on that kind of bounty manager, because most of the bounty that I have joined to have keep their promises. But to that bounty hunter and to many more, let karma chase after you. We, the bounty hunters are also like an employee, so we need our rewards as a form of salary for our work and effort.

the greedy bounty manager will receive the consequences of their actions at a minimum their ID will have red trush and continue their campaign as fraudsters accompanied by evidence, this will make the lesson for other bounty managers to do the same thing, because something they build will collapse when our cheating evidence discuss in this forum

Just don't participate in bounty campaigns of greedy managers. There are so many great managers, just read the reviews on the forum.

Although I hate bounty hunters, such bounty managers are more disgusting. Such people should be punished. This is a very low-level means.

Perhaps some bounty managers have too much power. They can not only record your stakes, but even participate in the distribution of tokens. This centralized power will inevitably lead to corruption. This is not a question about greed, but a distribution of power, so I think the Bounty Manager should not be involved in the distribution of payments, unless who is a self-managed bounty for members of the project team.

They need to use escrow to make sure everyone get reward and we will see less complains from bounty hunters. I wasn't payed few times or didn't get correct reward, but I knew the risk of joining bounties and I rather choose not to complain and just to move on. It is not really hard work you are doing or anything like that.

Actually, I don't know why he published this thread. It looks like a nonsense story, no focusing on any bounty managers or bounty campaigns. Or he has just posted something to reach "hard cap" of bounty requirement ?!?  ???

Thank you bro, you said a good talk. Maximum bounty manager steal token and they want to get rich fast. It is very bad habit. Bounty hunter work very hard to get good profit from a campaign, but campaign manager are greedy.

Yes. Some bounty managers even create multiple accounts and give them the maximum stakes to take away bonuses from other bounty hunters. Perhaps because they were also hired by the project, they did so.

You are absolutely right, we have many greedy people in this space and this greediness is not good for the image of the industry. It's is very bad and wickedness to deny people their pay after using their skills and time to promote a project.

I don't really understand what is this about and why you making this thread. its better if you want to tell us the incident,who is and which bounty your talking about. from my perspective its look like it only come because of your frustation and angriness. but i beliave that greedy bounty manager are exist, but i don't know who. maybe some of us have to make a list of all bounty manager and we can send the feedback based on their previous work so we all know the reputation of each person before we join any campaign, its not necessarily but i think it will help us.

First, bounty hunting isn't a job that you can really depend with and what you experienced is the other bad side of it.

Money may not be everything for you but if they are into it, you can't do anything with that. Haven't you contacted your bounty manager and ask what's the matter regarding the distribution so you will always get in touch with it? There's also a chance that project you are enrolled with stopped without further notice and didn't caught the soft cap they are targeting.

It really hurts. Not everyone is greedy managers. Jamal is the one who steals or uses alt in his campaign in order to steal our money. I don't know anyone else. If you do know, please share with us and let us know so that we can avoid the scammers.

There are a lot of good bounty managers, that answering for your messages in 10 minutes and helping with all your bounty questions.

As of now I have seen great bounty managers, helpful, friendly and approachable. Maybe they can be greedy in their own only we don't know everything maybe they keep something thay cannot affect to the project and also to the investors so that they will keep for long the relationship.

that is why i prefer working with platform with automated process of sharing stakes make it more comfortable for one to track it

Can you please share a list so that we can get some risk free bounty campaigns. It's really a matter of thinking. There are a lot of scammers nowadays internet. We should find out them and don't participate in their campaign.

If the bounty manager receives the payment from the project owner, And no reward paid by bounty hunters should be paid. Such behavior is fraud. You can keep the evidence. Accuse the fraud thread. At the same time give negative trust.

I agree that there are some greedy bounty managers who gets some of the participants' bounty token. However, as a bounty hunter, we should also do our part, if we know that a bounty manager is not reliable, do not join their bounty. Sometimes, some unexpected things are beyond the manager's control, there are instances that the problem is from the dev it self.

I can say that large percentage of bounty managers are greedy and they want to get rich at the expense of bounty hunters. Most of them are self centered individuals and they want the highest share in bounty campaign. I think the team should be handling bounties and not hired bounty manager.

it is their work kind of so i do not think taht it is good to be angry at those people they are just doing what tney must

Money shouldn't be everything, some manager are too greedy that they claim token meant for participants that have worked very hard for a project, some of them lack humanity actually, i had bad experience with one recently, i need his help to get my token and he turned me down

It would be nice if you gave examples of what you mean by this, but bounty managers do not get paid from the same pool as bounty hunters so they do not earn anything by denying you your payment, if the bounty manager judges that you did not fulfill the rules of the campaign then they have all the right to deny you any payment, they are not doing this out of greed but out of respect for those that did in fact follow the rules.

They are the problem we bounty hunters have most when it comes to all this bounty campaigns, you find some managers with stupid rules just to find a way of blocking people out of receiving their reward after working for some week. You find most of the changing rules when they see that people abiding to their stupid rules.

My thought on this is that, any project hosting the bounty program by theirself  also find a way to beat people off their reward  and bounty managers who received all token allocated for the bounty also do the same

That's right not all bounty manager is greedy much better to report him/her in meta so many people know what they doing and people aware to that bounty manager. Sometimes people change because of money so I think next time find a bounty that have bounty manager that fair for all participants.

You are correct at some point and I would agree since I am a bounty hunter myself. But managing an ICO is no easy task. Many of the well known managers have been inactive for some time now. For whatever reason, we can only speculate. Greed tends to become normal when you earn so much. But it usually becomes the very reason for many to fall. These greedy managers, as you put it, have received their reward in this lifetime. It's what comes after which they have to deal with.

Dude chill. Don't generalize them. Have you joined all of them. They are just doing their job as there are also some people trying to hack the system and make some fraudulent activities so you really can't blame them if they will be strict. if they really did something wrong that is out of their duty, there are authorities here that you can report them to.

Every bounty managers are not greedy, A lot of good bounty managers still active! But you are right, many bounty managers are cheating with bounty tokens by putting their several addresses in the spreadsheet! They are locking the sheet and after a while, they provide a new sheet! ICO managers should be more strict for the bounty managers! A lot of managers got red trust for their suspicious activity! So, if you cheat with honest people then remember one thing, "Karma is a bitch"

I don't really understand the point you are trying to make here, If you have any problem or any issue with any bounty manager and you find out that they are greedy and cheating in any way, you can always report them on here in the forum and mods will tag them probably, that's a way to go about it.

It is true, that some Bounty Managers are greedy, not paying and even cheating  with calculation of stakes and participating with their fake accounts in the bounty. We have to report those managers. On the other hand majority of the managers are honest and doing their job  conscientiously.
It is not their fault if the project team does not deliver the rewards on time or not listing their tokens on the exchanges or the value of the tokens crashes.
Bounty managers cannot influence those things.

The fact that the projects do not pay a bounty tokens are not the fault of the managers, and project developers. Often managers are also deceived. I'm more annoyed with lazy bounty managers who don't count spreadsheet for a long time. I'm not comfortable because I can't see the results of my work.

Well, you're right but remember that majority of the bounty managers aren't project developers. They're also employed just as we are just that they supervise and the reputable ones yes get their payments early. It is mostly from the side of the developers but the other truth is that most managers don't fight for hunters.

You really dont have any control over a campaign, its like a gambling now when you join such campaign, even famous and legit one's failed to deliver what they promise, whenever a payment is due they tend to change the rule or what. But I found campaign some campaign managers who fakes some signature participant which obviously they own.

Bounty hunters are greedy in nature, They accept payment first without reviewing the project first, that's why some top bounty managers got a red trust and don't trust the team anymore.

Well, I never had such bad experience with bounty till 6 months ago. I participated in 2 of the average ICO who never distributed the bounty reward. Bounty Manager and team went cold after the ICO and stopped responding to bounty queries.

Well, it's your choice to pick a scam projects, why don't you try to inspect the project first before joining a campaign? It's your fault that you've joined in a f'cked up project.

You can't hate those bounty managers 'cause "bounty" is not the purpose of the creation here in the forum. Well, hate them all you want but the higher ups can't do anything thus put some negative trust on them.

That's the effect if you're into a campaign and just thinking about the profit, there's a faulty system here about the campaign so let your brain cells work with you on finding a good campaign that will give you money. And by the way, take a look to your construction of your posts, do you think it's worthy to give you a money with that kind of work?  ???

Even though many bounty projects are now emerging, we have to be smarter in choosing a good bounty project. Don't always blame the bounty managers, sometimes they are assigned and paid by the project owner. If the project fails or is a fraud they also will not receive a salary. Just like us. So my advice is to choose the best of the best.

That only concludes that you believe money is everything, am I right? Of course I have been joining bounties to earn the same as you. But I will be consistent, MONEY IS NOT EVERYTHING. I have joined this forum because I am also learning how to manage my time, prioritizing things accordingly, training myself to interact with other people having diverse personalities and culture basically learning about your surroundings.

I will repeat money is just one, and is not everything!

I agree that some of the bounty manager are greedy and some even cheat to decrease the payment, or try to stall the payment, but not all of them like that, and you can't make one side judgement, sometimes its not the manager fault, sometimes the developers got problem or miscommunication, and bounty manager also got a limited power regarding to the project

I don't think that we should blame everything on the bounty manager. Just like us, they are only working for the ICO and they don't have an idea if the ICO will succeed or not. Also, the coins are not being sent to their wallet, it is the ICO management who were sending it. I think a lot of people just envy managera because they are being paid on a Ethereum/ BTC basis.

what you think and you point out? not quite clear to the manager who you wanted to say. many managers both in this forum and it seem like you are being met in that give you a scam or otherwise. We recommend that if you have any problems contact the course directly to those concerned so that out quickly.

I think we are not should blame bounty manager if there are any bounty dont paying, because the responsibility for pay the bounty reward is the team developer, and bounty manager also receive the reward from the team developer. Since ICO market low demand many bouny program not paying with some reason, like their project does not reach soft cap so we should be carefull to join bounty program and we will not waste so many times.

You should name names so bounty hunters will know and take note of these bounty hunters, you can also post this to reputation and scam sections we bounty hunters should help one another by giving tips and pointing who are good and bad bounty managers.

Most of the time manager is only following whats The developers commanding them so their hands are tied by this,because they are only paid for their jobs .though we can make our own moves to correct if theres something wrong

We can make a Scam accusation thread for the said manager and team so they can provide proper answer for our inquiries.and the DT and moderators may do necessary actions towards your concerns,same as what the OPs problem file a complaints in scam accusations section

Yes, of course here the dev teams will be fully responsible for the ongoing project, so whatever payment or related to the project the team knows what to do from here too we must be more careful in choosing ico and the team involved and don't get us wrong

If bounties are not paying it is because the team behind the project have not paid out the coins to the bounty manager for distribution. This one is on the creators and not on the bounty manager. They are just trying to do their job so they can get paid too. If it was the bounty manager holding the coins then the project team would have said so

Bounty managers are not responsible if you didn't get any rewards from bounty because he is also working to that team just like you,most of the time the bounty managers are also got scammed by the team when the ICO ends that is why the bounty managers should ask for escrow or the payment upfront for the participants not only for him.

Maybe lot's of you're ICO have already joined is scam so think about it. Always read whitepaper of the project and explore the ico project to know how if it's legit or not before joining some ico. Because lots of ico now is fake and scam not only meet that situation.

In every area of life there are scammers, but I think that our money is in good security but definitely not 100% security.

During my time participating in the bounty, I saw what greedy people are like, you also understand that it is greed that drives this market today and any market in principle, because it is a resource that will never end.

It's very possible there are some greedy bounty manager because of their selfish interest they do some fishy stuffs through the terms and conditions of the participation, so they hide behind that and try to manipulate bounty hunters which is not good because the ICO will be paying them too at an agreed price... To those bounty managers caught in this act do your job diligently and let transparency be paramount to you..

 What happen? You didnt get your reward? You should report it to the admin here in bitcointalk. Or maybe the distribution is still processing.

Bounty managers was one of the person we were relying on most especially on counting of stakes and updating every week but i do understand when there were times that they will not update that soon due to the reason that they have also their own life but the near fact in the end of the campaign bounty hunters haven't seen their presence i think thats because of greed. They also need to give full informations and updates inorder that the bounty hunters would feel complacent and assurance that they can have their reward.

Sometimes that isn't their fault since the bounty managers are only aware in managing people on joining the bounty and their stakes. The project itself and the owner of that project in held responsible for any distributions.

I don't understand very well what this post is about, as you don't denounce a particular attitude that bounty managers are doing, so I would like you to go a little deeper into this to try to understand your point of view better, remember that many people are here for the money, and being bm can be an exhausting effort that has to be rewarded, as much as being bounty hunter.

Another thing to consider before joining a bounty campaign is the bounty manager. I always ignore manager who has a negative trust or has already issues handling campaigns.
Better not join so not to waste my time.

I also experienced the same thing, many bounty managers are too greedy due to allocations that do not match what has been determined. Maybe the bounty manager knows that the price of the coin or token will be expensive so that they arbitrarily share tokens or coins as they please.

don`t categorized every bounty manager as greedy. some bounty manager do really care about their participants and one thing greed has been part of human history everyone has it if you are not satisfied with the stake or token your bounty manager gave you for your work then that is not greed thats thief

I see that not all managers are greedy, and I think that the company depends not only on the manager, there are also project creators. There are managers who do not fulfill their duties in good faith.

I personally think that the integrity of a bounty manager should be one of the factors you should consider before choosing any bounty to participate in. Because even if the allocation is much and the project is good enough but there bounty manager is not trustworthy, there is possibility that you won't get your money.

I do not think that it depends on Bounty Managers if we get our rewards or not. It depends on the project team. I have never experienced that a BM was not delivering his part of the job, but it does not mean that all BMs are good, rather that I had luck until now not to be scammed.

If the bounty manager is becoming shady in everything about the bounty campaign that he/she is holding then report it immediately or make a topic threads so that people who were assign to put a red trust will know who are the bounty managers that cannot be trusted in this forum.

That's a serious accusation for some bounty managers, I know what youre feeling of not being paid and sorry to hear that but a message like that ahows how unprofessional  you are on accepting somw facts about doing bounty. Also, you sont have enough proof for this, maybe the team of ICO is the one not paid you why putting the blame on some bounty manager? Remember, they also working on the scene and doing their jobs to fulfill the campaign. Hopefully you understand that they are same like us.

It is annoying that bounty managers take advantage of bounty hunters in the way they currently do. They raise a lot of money from   their token sales with the help of our promotions but are always reluctant to pay for the services provided. This in itself is fraud and very bad

Hi, friend. In the case of the manager you mentioned, what if we think positively. The percentage of managers who are greedy, in my opinion only 30%. 60% don't want to deceive us as bounty hunters who have spent time doing work that is worthy of getting paid. Because really, what I am, you and them as managers, both have the desire to be rich.

Maybe you can specify why you don't accept the coins. You must also know why the Bounty Manager doesn't give you the money. there must be some reasons. probably you miss some rules or regulation and broke it. Or sometimes, the BM also feel as you, they are victim of the failed ICO or scam ICO. If the condition is so, you should not be angry to the BM. However, if the ICO is real, they give the allocation for the bounty, and the BM don't give you money without any reasons, you can report them or even ask it to the ICO team on the telegram.

Whats your problem with bounty managers man? They are the ones who do manage the bounty but talking about token allocation or salary it would always vary or depend on the team itself.Unless if you have seen that the team sent out the tokens to the manager for it to be redistributed and you saw theres a cut on all the amounts that should be exactly to be given but if you don't see anything about the manager when it comes to that thing then I don't see a reason why they would need to be blamed.

For those bounty manager lot of them they dont care about bounty hunters even you gonna earn or not. But some times that youre gonna join in a ico make sure your ico is legit so you'll get paid and no wasting times promoting.

Maybe many time the team behind the project has not paid to the Bounty Managers and all the blame come towards the Bounty Managers. And due to this thing, they became guilty in our eyes. So we have to consider this fact.

in any case, today many bounty managers are monitoring the integrity of their own name and are trying not to touch on problematic or few promising projects.

Payouts are not always delayed by the fault of bounty managers. Often the project developers are to blame. Therefore, it is not necessary to consider all bounty managers greedy.

Many of these managers are fraudulent projects and I think it makes good money, in order to prevent this from happening, we need to work only with top managers.

bounty manager, what a judgment!!! they are also bounty hunters like everyone, they have a different task to be accomplished that's all, at the end of the campaign they send their report and it is the ICO team who decides about payment

It is necessary during the registration to follow all the rules and follow the table. If you do not follow the rules of IKO, you will not get a token.

Name a specific name and a claim ... many managers are completely not greedy and they spend much more time than we do ....

And what would you like to say? That they are promoting scam ICOs? I think that they do not know it because if you manage a scam bounty there is high possibility that you will receive negative trust. And every well-known bounty manager cares about it. So as soon as they find out that it is a scam, they will stop the bounty campaign.

For joining some bounty campaigns just make sure your ico that your promoting is a legit to avoid lossing your hope at the last and think first before you join a campaign.

I sympathize with your experience, but our hunters are very weak, because we have no way to punish these fraudsters except for email! Whether it's a bounty event or a bounty manager!

In the next time better if you are going to join to bounty campaign make sure the bounty manager is trusted because if the manager is new maybe he is greedy. Joining to bounty campaign who have trusted manager is high percent to get your reward wants the campaign ends or the project reach their target.

Be specific. Blaming them all doesn't help. Also, you need to mention that Bounty Manager for us to avoid his campaigns and by that, you'd be able to get what you want and that is to expose him for doing such unprofessional job. To mention, some Bounty Managers are diligent but not getting too much attention because we all just notice mistakes, not good deeds.

funny and with this post will not change anything for you.
if that happens, there is nothing you can do but look for a new project bounty. yes the risk of a gift hunter

Yes, there are a lot of low quality bounty now, and some bounty managers don't do too much analysis on these projects. We've spent a lot of time and effort on participating in these bounties, but that's not what bounty managers are most concerned about.

This is a completely useless topic even if it was created purely for venting

How can bounty managers be greedy exactly as typically the allocation for each campaign is clearly stated in the announcement thread and a spreadsheet of the final results with reward amounts published post-campaign for transparency?

Sure they get paid more than the bounty hunters do but that's because there's more work involved and usually it's a fixed amount per campaign AFAIK

I agree with this. Bounty managers are not to blame in any failed ICOs because they are also like us having a job in crypto.  Yes we must report if you find eveidence that they are into  scamming. In fairness there are  managers that are doing their best.

Join campaigns managed by trusted admins. There is too much fraud in the cryptocurrency world, so you'd rather stick to the persons you can trust.

There bounty managers that are also trying there best to have a successfull projects. So not all if them are to be blame. We can report these kind of managers so that they can be banned in crypto.

Next time you should choose wisely bounty manager who handle bounty that you want to participate before. There are so many unresponsible bounty managers who don't care about their bounty hunters.

You can find some trusted bounty manager here

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4528038.0

I think the delay and the small payment not from bounty managers. The delay is from the developers of ICO. The small amount of payment because stakes divided to too many participants. That is why the payment is to low now. Many managers are now try to create bountyplatform however the platform not maximal in managing bounty so stakes will be slow to count and make late payment too.

Surprised to see a bounty hunter venting his displeasure about greedy bounty managers. Well I hope your message reaches out to them . Not all managers are greedy and also this is life.Best anyone can do is accept the loss and move forward

Sometimes this is the part that you can reach if you carelessly choose a bounty campaign without knowing first. But to the bounty manager that make this kind of incident, surely karma is chasing you. Make sure to put a red trust to the bounty manager that is not complying on their promises.

if you have a complaint and get irregularities or evidence for that, you can report it to the moderator rather than just repeating the post here.

Bounty managers should also be KYC'ed and profiled by the ICO/Project team if they are outsourcing it.

A responsible bounty manager is a bridge between the community and the project team. He should also profile and do research on the ICO project that he intends to manage.

For both parties to be able to fulfill their payout commitments to the community, there should also be an escrow for the funds.

Bounty hunters should not be neglected. We also become project supporters in the long run. There are hundreds of projects doing bounty and we decided to join a specific bounty program and become tied to it for months to fulfill the requirements as well.

Bounty managers should have a deeper process to handle a certain project. It's really selfish for them to do that, the hard work of others should have a compensation. Greed always results to not good thing.

It is indeed the managers responsibilities, they should take care and secured participants stakes, if they do their research regarding to the projects that they are handling everything should be accounted and make sure that the team will pay all the bounty hunters accordingly, participants of bounty also invest their time and effort to help the project attracting investors.

Are you that famous,so bounty managers have known you?Lol

Joining a bounty or being a bounty hunter is a risky thing,and when you decide to join that means you’re willing to be paid,or be scammed because thats the life of a hunter.and it is our prerogative where to join ,so if we become a victim of scsm lets admit it and move on.join another bounty as if nothings happen

I think its better to be specific who the bounty manager is rather than generalizing it . I've seen a lot of good bounty managers who look after the bounty hunters very well and doing their job as a manager.

I think its not al bounty hunters who are greedy. There are some of them who pays you immediately after the end of the bounty campaign. To me I think the bounties that are managed by the ICO teams are the bounties which takes much time to be paid.

yes i know what ypu are talking abput they areally sometime sare like this and i have no 9dez what to so with it

well sp?etomes maybe yes ypu are right but actuallt i can not understand how we can be lile this bounty is not good for earning mone6y

Yes, I agree a lot now greedy managers who want to make money on us and they do not care that we spent our time and effort, it's sad.

I met greedy bounty managers, as a rule, they use various tricks to give advantage to their accounts or to themselves. For example, such bounty managers deliberately do not consider the stakes of some people, and after the calculations they take someone else's profit for themselves.

Would have been cool if you posted the profiles of the so called greedy bounty managers here so that we identify them. Also bounty managers who are scam can be reported and get their accounts RED tagged. So please do the needful and we get rid of them right away.

 I think bounty managers had nothing to do with the greediness you said, it so happens that the project they had run is a scam but they had lapses in doing research to make sure that is a good project, sometimes due to a big budget allocation for bounty, that is why managers grab the opportunity to think that hunters will be paid more rewards.

I don't think you are explaining a problem here in your post. If you think some bounty managers are greedy, then tell us why you think like that. You just did a nonsense rant because it lacks substance.

ySign Bounty campaign which is managed by ySign admins, did the same thing. Bounty phase 2 was announced with 12.000.000 YSN tokens for 6 weeks. They reduced the campaign period to 4 weeks but the reward was reduced to 400.000. Its admin is still kidding with bounty hunters. At telegram group, admin confessed that they are gonna sell those tokens. Such greedy people are in this industry and I am sure they will not get any success. I am sad for that project's investors. Because it is obvious that its liar team when they get some money will leave the project.

The greed of managers sooner or later brings a red trust, because today many managers go with a red trust, it happens of course in a different way, because sometimes it happens that people are painted with a trust for all sorts of different reasons.

It does not sound convincing :) Greed is a human vice, perhaps you would not be a greedy bounty manager, but you are not

You know, they just do their job like you do. And they are not because they want to be greedy, but because this is required of them by the ICO team.

I don't think it is up to the bounty campaign managers who decide what the rewards will be. It depends on the person that hired the bounty manager. So it is not their fault. But if you do see that the bounty manager is abusing his position like deliberately denying to give your rewards without any reason, allowing his alt accounts to join the program etc, then you should let others know and the bounty manager will be taken care of. Also, let the people who are involve in the project know.

Yes not just faced with this picture,when he just threw Bautista,managers!Just reduced payments several times,then something else,then do take not vydavali and so on,and due to KYC they immediately part can Adbrite and the tokens to pick up,so does the General picture,but there are some good and honest managers

What is your problem with your bounty manager bro? You can always talk to him privately so you can resolve it. Before participating in a bounty, there are rules and if you followed that rules from the beginning then you have no problem with your BM.

I am happy someone could be able to identify this problem with bounty managers its very annoying to work for months and keeping up to every task and at the end of its you do not get your supposed reward its bad simply because some bounty manager wants to make quick money

Hehehehe its really annoying and sometimes you just have to laugh over some issues. You keep other people hard work earnings in your wallet and you think that is all and probably think he's the smartest. You might get your reward one day keep on enjoying the fruit of ones labor

       Maybe He was not happy with his stakes because this is always the problem of some of low rank member upon receiving minimal amount of stakes , they will getting mad without considering the equivalent stakes for low rank member , although we are posting the same but it is clearly stated in the rules . So my advice is you mark x if you were not happy working with him and never work with him again .

Therefore, it is better to work with proven managers of bounty companies. I have not yet met such greedy managers as you describe, but if they really exist, it also becomes a very sad fact for the entire cryptocurrency community.

Some bounty managers will lock the topic to stop participants from reporting anymore weekly reports for it will just be a waste of time for these unaware participants. As to spreadsheets that are unable to be look at after the ICO, it's also a practice by some bounty managers to put the spreadsheet on private mode while the calculation is not yet over but it will be put in public mode again once everything is all done and ready for some complaints and stakes corrections. I have known one bounty manager like that but everything works fine and in fair and just computation. :)

Most of the bounty managers are quite fair, you probably have found a nasty one. I recommend that you particularly play only with the established ones if you have these feelings.

You all have a point here. The topic is focusing on Greedy Bounty Hunters and there is some here that are really greedy. They want the allocated rewards to be theirs alone. Now, for those who experience that don't hesitate to point them out. But, the problem is something those greedy bounty hunters are really have the power to reverse the situation. You don't want your account to be marked. So, I understand his rant here.

Yes, in my opinion, not all bounty managers are greedy, only some people commit fraud to enrich themselves. So it is true that to participate in the bounty campaign we must choose a manager verified by this bitcointalk forum.

Some of them are complete pendants that have lost focus entirely that the entire point of the bounty is to promote the ICO, not provide them with an opportunity to act like a martinet. Case in point a recent bounty where may work was excluded because the bounty manager was incapable of writing clear instructions about how to report the work and I end up reporting the work by quote posting the authentication post and not editing it. I got nothing even though all the actual work itself was done exactly as specified. About half the people in the bounty lost out because the instructions were written unclearly and the bounty manager preferred an opportunity to powertrip over his and the company doing the ICO's reputation.

It is quite unpleasant feeling after working for months on a bounty without having access to spreadsheet and been paid. However, not all bounty managers are like this. This is one of the main reason why you should consider the portfolio of the bounty manager before joining. Some bounty managers have good records of managing successfully bounties.

As I know it is true some bounty managers trying to cheat the community but their are so many many good bounty hunters too. I was also working in aion bounty campaign and when the time come for distribution they distributed 50 % less amount of bounty token. Some bounty mangers don't have any control of the Token distribution but some have. I was work for few bounty campaign where I did not received my token. Those bounty manager already got negative trust on Bitcointalk. I think before involving in bounty campaign we need to do more scrutiny about bounty managers too.

Hahahaha! It is actually not a good thing to see a lot of people who tend to do bounties not getting their benefits after some job done based on the fact that some bounty managers are some assholes.

The thing though is that there are some times, when the fault could actually be from the bounty participants themselves, but all the same, it is actually not a good thing when you get to see managers tending to go the greedy way which like you have said, nemesis at some point will always have a way of chasing down on them and screwing them over as they have screwed other people over.

Unfortunately, there are bounty managers who can't feed their hunger. One of these managers has been unfair to me and I'm sure he will someday account for God's Justice.

I also have not understood you. A bounty manager does not decide how much tokens will be allocated to hunters. He/she is just a person or team hired by ico project for managing bounty campaign. Even if a bounty manager kicks out some hunters, then he/she does not get their "money". It's just his/her job.

no manager verified by the forum, the moderator gave red trust to anyone who committed fraud including the manager.
many trusted managers, for example sylon and amazix they are the best managers in this forum.

I have not encountered this kind of problem. Most common problem with bounty hunters are miscommunication with bounty managers. Also some reason the bounty reward got reduced was because of the project team decided to reduce the bounty reward.

It is undeniable that some bounty managers are indeed greedy.All of us should look for trustworthy bounty managers when participating in the bounty.Also need to carefully select the project or it will not be soft top.

That is always the best thing and as long as you have proof and some back up with some other people who can attest to it, you can open a scam accusation on the bounty manager, and I am sure at the end of it all, if found guilty of anything at all, the DT2 members will always get to do the needful.

I have seen some occasions in which some bounty participants actually get ripped off their pay as a result of some bounty managers getting greedy which can be pretty absurd honestly, considering the time and resources people put into these things, which is why some times, a lot of people have always gotten to settle eventually with few and reputable managers they know they are at least covered with.

Well, some time ago I joined a project that was managed by my Faforit manager until it ran 7 to 8 weeks. almost the project was finished, suddenly the manager announced that the project had failed because the project team could not work together. that's the reason the TOTUM project manager said, so I have to revoke the signature. I did not mention who the manager is, but you can find it yourself. Sorry.

In every business, there is always happened in between good and bad. Now that we are in this business industry, Greedy people I think won't be gone anyway. It will always be a part in the business. Like what is happening here in the bounty campaign project who managed it, which is the bounty managers. I can't deny that some of them are abusing their position to do some cheating, and stealing the other stakes of the bounty participants, How? like they have the rules of " Participants can be remove without any reason " they can kick out the participants but the stakes total which the participants did can go forward to the manager, though this is just my thought and opinion, or they can delete some of your post message, if the bounty thread is self moderated, something like that.

I just do not like bounty managers who do not support the bounty they manage. There are very cute managers, they repeatedly answer participants. And after the bounty ends, the payouts belong to the project team, we can not blame them

Well honestly hilarious maybe didn't know these bounty managers since the altcoin section is just full of spammers. Yes there no such thing as verified, only just trusted members. There are signature campaign managers in  Overview  (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=615953) that are really trusted and gain credibility along the run of their campaigns.

So this whole bounty campaigns had its risk, so join at your own risk.
