Bitcoin Forum

Some people have been bounty hunters for a long time (e.g, for the past 2 or3 years) and till now, they are still on the act of hunting for more altcoins.
It is true that the reward hunters now get is so small compared to what was obtainable 2 to 3 years ago and not only that, it now takes more time to be paid than it was. So, instead of complaining, why not through some of the experience you have got, since your sojourn in the crypto space, explore other means through which you can earn more and fill your portfolio.

N.B:
This might be like  a vital information. There are lots of projects that did bounty campaigns (although not all), which have decided to extent the time of payment of tokens to their bounty participants. Whose tokens are growing tremendously after listing on exchange. Which means that traders and investors of projects like these get their profits before bounty hunters are paid.

DISCLAIMER:: Although, this is not an investment advice, but an observation, which i have decided to call your attention to.

Many people are used to complaining about failures, instead of trying to improve their situation. I like what you said, I agree with you, buddy. I think that bounty hunters should use their experience to improve their financial situation, instead of crying.

Personally, I think that bounty hunters are currently not going through the best period in their activity. Since just two years ago, bounty hunters received a very good income. And at the moment, this is not the best time for bounty hunters. But soon everything will be as before and bounty hunters will begin to receive good rewards.

Yes you are right payments rolled down to a minimum. and in General, 80-90 percent of projects simply do not pay employees. so and die soon ICO quite. I think we need to find new ways of generating income. mining is also not profitable. does anyone have any ideas?

Yeah keep doing our best and improve our quality.
Good projects will come to us sooner or later, and keep watching the cryptocurrency world. i'm sure one day there will be space for good quality bounty hunters to earn valuable cryptocurrency

Things have really changed and it's definitely not like when it was 2 years before. I would not recommend anyone to take party in bounties because it just isn't worth it any more.
The payouts are really low when you eventually convert it into BTC or any major coin. You have to struggle hard to earn the mere chunks.
After all the hardwork you are required to do the KYC else you won't be paid. Even after doing the KYC many projects make delayed payments while some don'e even pay.
So, this is definitely not the best thing to do these days.

Without bounty distribution which coin are growing tremendously after top exchange listed and didn't dump until bounty distribution. You don't know any name, because only few coin can't dump the whole market. In recent years bounty rewards is downing dramatically.

2017 was a special year both in cryptocurrency and in the activities of ICO projects. It is unlikely that this will happen again, but the revival of the ICO is quite possible and I hope that in the near future it will be so. Bounty hunters have become much harder to work with, and not even in the sense that the reward has become much less. The period between the termination of participation in ICO bounty campaigns and the receipt of earned tokens now often becomes many months, or even years. During this period,  need to constantly monitor changes in the project and in the conditions of payment, otherwise tokens may simply not be received. It takes a lot of time, given the fact that there are dozens of such projects. Earlier, that is, two years ago, there were no such problems at all.

But not everyone could do it for example there are some who have been bounty hunter for so long but still couldn't trade properly,
And there are some reasons why ,
Not all bounty hunters have a huge free time or only living through bounty hunting,
So those bounty hunter couldn't do other stuff that would eat up so many of their time.
There are some who are lazy to study trading and others who couldn't do other job because it requires some experience like bounty manager most of the time it would be hard to be one because they would require some past experience .

I personally think bounty hunters are now just useless people who are scamming the forum by making useless posts around various threads. There was a time when bounties were profitable even I used to do bounties. But these days I think the bounties are pretty less rewarding. Most of them ico turn out to be scam so basically bounty hunting is no more a useful business until you are too lucky to found some good coins or running with a hell lot of bots. So i think bounty hunters are doing nothing these days than trying their efforts on something unuseful.

You will include to your portfolio/CV that you were a bounty hunter? which means that you're into marketing because every bounty hunter's task is to market the project that they are enrolled. But I don't think that your future potential employers would be impressed with that if you will tell them that you've been into it. Why not simply tell them that you have a knowledge in cryptocurrencies/blockchain and with that, you can contribute to the related job that you're applying for?

Some projects are blaming bounty hinters for the price of their coins getting dumped. However if you will look at it during a bounty campaign only atleast 1% up to5% maximum at most or even less than 1% of the total supply is dedicated for bounty. The one they should blame is the investors who managed to get huge discount. A lot of projects put bounties locked to protect investors because of this. That is why I think it really is a risk to join bounties and this kind of risk is what bounty hunters take when joining.

How do we define a bounty hunter? Are they marketing agents that help promote a product or service in other words, bounty hunter is a partner? Or maybe 'a slave' that can be exploited and blamed for granted. I often ask this. We don't have legal protection, we are a community that reinforce each other.

Best profitable period for the bounty hunters were 2017,even few people made millions from doing bounties alone but now even those projects are afraid to pay the participants in bitcoin which can save tokens from dumping when it listed so from this most projects launched after 2017 are just like a gamble they are aiming for more profits.

Probably one of the reason why bounty hunters stay as is because of the freedom of time to operate.  As a bounty hunter, they can dictate the time on when to do the job.  Aside from that, they are so familiar with the rules and take them lesser effort to do the task in a proficient way.  This, then become their comfort zone.  Once in a comfort zone, it is hard to get out to try new venture or new set of job since they have to start all over again.  People  going out of comfort zone is the last thing they wanna do.

You are right that is why I move out in the ICO bounty campaign and instead transfer to promoting gambling  sites, it's more rewarding, I would not have to wait for months to see my rewards, some of my work in the bounty campaigns is wasted effort , I just hope I can get more into more gambling promotion I don't want to come back to promoting ICO which is just a waste of time.

Nice suggestion. I have seen many users growing from the status of bounty hunters to individual service providers. All one needs is an area of core competency. It could be blog writing, twitter, translations or any other kind of promotion. I have friends who are making $200-500 per project just from twitter every week. ICOs are ready to pay them upto $500 per week for just writing few tweets and that too in BTC or other listed coins in advance.

if you look at several accounts, they are following a lot of projects for social media campaigns. they know they will get a little from the bounty and therefore they are increasingly following the bounty even though not all of them pay.
many have stopped, seeing several large accounts that have long been inactive in the forum. those who stop, of course, consider the results of the bounty and the real work they do.

Unfortunately, at the moment, there are no more “dozens” of projects. Now bounty hunters participate in 2-3, maximum 5 projects. A worthy project is very hard to find. Maybe only newbies clutch at everything, but those who are more experienced are now more careful and value their time.

In some way, bounty hunters are partners to bring investors around, they are not slaves where you can point your fingers once failures comes to your project, and it's not good if you will runaway and forget about paying since they've don their part with the projects.

It's hard nowadays to find good team that will lead everything into succession, then pay hunters the right rewards according to their shared with the project success.

Well, the rewards were better back then even though I never really benefitted from them except from an airdrop program which was alittle different from today's airdrop.
Almost everything was affected by the bearish market not just cryptocurrency crowdfunding. Current hunters need to understand this

you have a good point there however we all know that even some of the legitimate projects ends up as a failure or ends as a scam right? so bounty hunters are afraid to invest to a project and in result they just invest time and effort in order to get new coins from a new project.

I have been a member of the bounty for 3 years now and indeed now is not the best time to make money in this area, however, I continue my work and if I even have a negative from work, I keep it in myself and continue to do my job. You are right about experience. When you have already gained experience, it is foolish not to use it, of course you need to think more broadly and use the maximum opportunities for earning and replenishing your crypto portfolio.

lately it is indeed a difficult time for bounty hunters, low income and requires a long time to wait for the distribution date of the token, This year 2019 is a bad year for bounty hunters because it's not the same as 2018 ago, but I still believe that in 2020 bounty hunters will return to enjoy the good times like in 2018 ago.. so that until now I still remain a bounty hunter.

The problem is that currently the entire altcoins sector is blocked: there are no really valid projects, and in any case the investors - after having lost large sums of money - have become much more cautious. We will see in the future, for the time being the bounties are only a waste of time.

It will be great also if you can suggest a good alternative aside from being a bounty hunters because if there are no other alternatives that can really help the bounty hunters then they will surely remain as bounty hunters even if it will take a lifetime.

The service that you can advance aside from being a bounty hunters are as follows : marketing managers,ann & bounty managers,signature designer,community managers,programmers if you know how to code and social media members booster.

But as you can see, the competition in this area are very high so there is a very little chance that you will be hired. Therefore it is very difficult to advance as a bounty hunter especially if you have no solid foundation like experience and etc.

Would you mind explaining us, on what basis do you think that the bounty hunters will have a better time in 2020 ? As far as I have researched it seems like the bounty hunters will stop investing their time for ICO's based on the poor experience they had in 2019 wherein they didn't receive payment for some of the bounties, have to wait for a long time for some bounty only to be advised that it was a scam project and few bounties which paid the bounty hunters did it when the token value was almost zero.

yeah that's right, bounty hunter is currently having a hard time, well maybe this is an impact that must be borne by bounty hunters, because investors lose trust in the organizers of ico, because of the many scammers, well maybe it looks unfair, bounty hunters campaign for a project without knowing it scam or not, and it turns out the project was a scam, as a result many people lost money, and experienced trauma to invest in ico

You can still earn some money as a bounty hunter but rewards are much lower than they used to be. The market is slowly recovering from a bear season and this is a similar situation to 2016 with the difference that in 2016 people were making money mining and in 2017 it was more of a bounty season.

You never know what 2020 will bring but the crypto ecosystem is evolving and don't expect it to be anything like 2016 or 2017.

Bounty has not been profitable for a long time, it's true. I also think that we should look for some other ways of earning. It does not have to be a cryptocurrency, there are enough ways to earn money on the Internet. You should always develop and strive to learn something new.

Now bounty campaigns give not much profit as before but I think it's temporary. Just need to wait new cryptocurrency market rise and we will see more new bounties.

Not just small, most of the time you will not get any payment, There are so many projects that scammed people, you will not get any payment of course, if they pay the BH still useless as they will just run with the money of investors and the token will not be listed to any market.

Some project who gets the success in their ICO did not pay the participants in the right time, if they do, they lock the token so it will stay on a wallet.
They will unlock it when the market is really down and the price you will get is more than 10x below the promised budget.

I just spill what i feel and what i see in the community now, i am not stop here! will surely looking for more better projects but i hope they will not tread the BH like this.

If you don't mind, could you list the "other means". You see, these things are easier said than done. No one will intentionally want to be called a fool (this is what most projects do now to bounty hunters). I wouldn't want to be cheated but sometimes you fall prey to scammy developers. That's the price most of bounty hunters face, no matter how careful you want to be.

Nowadays, the bounty is not too bright like a few years ago. Market conditions that are not conducive greatly affect. Moreover, there was a lot of drama: allocations were cut, periods were extended, tokens were locked for bounty hunters, distribution delays, etc. We can only accept it patiently, that's the risk, I just hope that this situation improves so that those developers who use the services of bounty hunters to support the expansion of their projects can be treated more properly. However, bounty hunters are also supporters of the success of the project, especially in building a broad ecosystem.

Not all bounty campaigns gives small amount of rewards to their bounty participants , there are some bounty campaigns that gives much more bounty rewards , for example a bounty hunter join in a bounty campaigns and that bounty hunter joins aall of the campaigns , in the end of the ICO ,IEO the rewards that will receive is huge enough for participating in all the campaigns.

There's still at least some money to be made through bounties, and some people live in parts of the world where even the small amount of money that can be made from a bounty campaign still makes a difference, though I do agree that if you know where to look and if you have the appropriate skills, there's better uses of your time to earn fiat and crypto online. Most bounty tasks are rather simple and most people can do them, however, which might be why so many people are still bounty hunters even after years of doing the same thing.  

Participating in a bounty campaign is one of seeking income without having to make an investment. Where we have to work hard to do it and now the bounty campaign has been different, which is not like previous years.


I am happy with this point, actually in crypto there are many ways to earn income. Is what you say true, that it's better to look for income in another way.

I have been a bounty hunter for 3 years but the bounty is now difficult to predict which is more profitable, but keep looking for the best, then the results are good, and we don't just join the bounty because the bounties are mostly scams nowadays ...

Today has been a difficult time to be a bounty hunter because of all that's happening/happened in the crypto space. 2017 was profitable but if you look at this year, more and more projects are falling off and exiting out if they didn't get proper funding which will cause all your hardwork to promote their project worth nothing.

There are other ways where we bounty hunters can utilize their skills and gathered knowledge over the years and still work for crypto (http://daomaker.com/?utm_source=lx). Be it writing articles, tweeting events, develop a dApp, and a lot more. It's a matter of finding the perfect project to help promote and being good in identifying if it's worth your efforts or not.

I got much money from become bounty hunter last three years but I have bad attitude with my self because I am really trust with some ICO project for long term, last two years I earn 100k coin and have good price about $2 in market, but I keep holding because I think at the future will raise tto $4 but price drop and website have scam.

I know, most of these things are usually used by big IEO developers, because they don't want the market to be filled with sell orders. Which incident can reduce transactions and of course value. It is true that from another point of view traders are very fortunate if they see potential coins, so to think of other ways to produce crypto is good information in my opinion.As a bounty hunter that has been around for a long time, I can understand the current conditions and and I've done a number of things that can produce benefits other than bounty.

There are a lot of bounty campaigns in this forum. But they all are not legit. Because some ICO and IEO projects are getting to scams. The next thing is some projects are changing rules with allocations of bounties and not paying to the bounty hunters end of the campaign. Another thing is distribution. Most bounties are going late to pay bounty hunters. Sometimes the coin prices have dumped in bounty distribution time. That means bounty hunters are getting low profits for their works.

Most bounty campaign nowadays delayed their payment to bounty hunters because they are so greedy they don't want their bounty hunters to get their salary. It's also hard to find good bounties that will pay quickly and will have great value, just be patient bounty hunters our glorious days will come again.

Bounty hunting is not completely dead. There are good projects every once in a while, which rewards good. You just gotta find them, these will motivate you to continue.

Also, it's always a good idea to have a side gig, when you have multiple ways to earn money you tend to be less stressed.

Basically if you are going to observed the forum right now, signatures of experienced bounty hunters by rank will not going to depict that they are still hunting bounty. Mostly, members and bellow have altcoins signatures attached to mean, merely due to the fact that they can't join weekly campaigns that require higher ranks. Right now, what is important is the enthusiasm of everyone here on crypto space, to learn and share various information so we're all updated.

Well, it is always an available option. But then it is one thing to invest, whether during the ICO/IEO period or during the time when the coin is already listed on exchanges, and it is another to just work for it. Investing in a coin is risky and you also need to have the money for it. Joining bounty campaigns on the other hand does not cost you anything except the effort given to fulfill some tasks and a little more for the payment waiting. But that is all. There is not much risk and money needed. That is the easier choice of course.

I have also been a bounty hunter for a long time. Quite sad, most scams, lots of drama, bounty hunters are increasingly underestimated and often blamed in the event of a dump, even though the market conditions are not conducive. To avoid that risk, I tend to choose bounties whose periods are not too long, the project is strong, the product works, and if possible, it already exists in the market.You are right. There are still lots of good opportunities, it's just covered up by fake new bounties and weak projects. It's good to join a quality bounty like the signature that you use. Bounty managers are very selective in choosing bounty participants, the allocation is already determined, very profitable.

Of course, But if you deeply see the whole infrastructure of the project that is not needed to do.You can paid hunters because your project was very confident and ready to dip price and they are not afraid to price falls. Because project are very useful thing so no need to be worry.

There is no other ways to earn in bounties than joining
multiple bounty campaigns, since the successful of ICO in 2017 to 2018 bounty hunters have triple in numbers this makes bounty rewards very lower, imagine a bounty pool that worths 20k and over 30,000 participants are waiting to share the 20k compared to the past when only 1000 hunters will share pool allocation

ok I know what you think, in my opinion there are people who choose to become a bounty hunter with a very long time that was chosen because maybe in the vicinity there are no other jobs that ultimately make him forced to become part of the bounty hunter with a very long time , sometimes people with disabilities also prefer to become a bounty hunter because they are desperate that no one accepts them to work around their environment.

So actually the bounty hunter is currently a small prize, but according to some people who are participants of the bounty campaign, that's enough to buy the necessities of life.

What is left in bounty hunting that can make one to be advance? choose projects carefully? or limit the projects you will promote? no matter what we do we can't escape promoting the wrong projects and rewards will still be delayed  or even never get paid after bounty ends, promoting bounties is no more encouraging

Waiting is new normal in the bounty hunting world and I have no problem waiting for my rewards because I usually hold my rewards for a few months before deciding whether to sell it or keep holding.

It is true as you said that we should be the prize hunters who have been able to find new ways to get results from this forum, because now there are so many bounty projects that do not guarantee success and the results we get are very few compared to the previous two years, and we have been very disappointed With all this, but the belief to get good results still remains, this is what keeps us going on in the bounty project.

As a bounty hunter before, I do felt the same thing. Nowadays, bounty projects are no more profitable. The bounty campaigns are directly being affected by the situation at this moment. You would really waste time on some projects for being not profitable. But as what OP have mentioned there are other ways to earn alts from projects. I have tried gambling and investing to coins unlike spending the whole time on bounties just like what I have done before.

Or why not just hold your bounty reward and wait until the market will fully recover.
Projects that try to raise funds and run in the crypto space understand the market situation but they believe that in the long run, the market will recover.
If you can hold for longer, then I suggest that's the right thing to do, in general bounty is not really as profitable in the past, so look for a job and do bounty at the same time so you will not complain.

I absolutely agree with you, we cannot be bounty hunters for our lifetime. Change is inevitable and we must adjust for us to live. I have been doing bounty campaigns for a year, way back 2017 I used to be full time bounty hunter because of its earning potential but that have ended so I decided to go full-time as a community manager to suffice my needs.

I am betting you would also complain if you are taking part in a signature bounty for 3-4 months, admins are saying that the soft cap was collect and everything is going well, but as soon as bounty ends, you are not getting paid and the project goes scam.

The situation compared 2 years ago wherein the market is soaring high, ICOs are still profitable and many legit projects existing are gone now.

We cant stick as a bounty hunter only especially nowadays that the situation is totally different, this is the time to explore and use our other skills to earn.

Its better to improve ourselves and dont rely in bounties.

I am sure that most of bounty hunters in this forum will experience unpaid when the project ends and are successful, and those that are paid in very small amounts and this is very painful because in working on the bounty it can take months.
I hope this year's IEO project that you are going through will pay well, because me and you need money

It’s good to be a hunter, of course, but you can’t earn money here as before, and no one will work for free

We fell you im participated some bounty campaign and some of them are going to be scam in the end, they are always promises about the rewards until one of them are gone one by one. Not like in the past year their are lot of bounty campaign are worth to participate and earn enough rewards for promoting the projects. But now only few bounty hunters are not totally participate ill think they are afraid that in the end of bounty are going to scam only.

You can continue to participate in the bounty to invest in projects that conduct IEO on top exchanges. If you analyze it, then we can conclude that almost all tokens cost much more than the price of IEO.There is also the possibility of passive earnings. Let’s say you can put a node on your computer and receive rewards.At the moment, this type of earnings is the company NOIA.Follow the links to telegram groups and learn how to do it: ENG:https://t.me/NoiaNetwork (https://t.me/NoiaNetwork) RUS:https://t.me/NOIA_RUS (https://t.me/NOIA_RUS)

It is really different compared to the situation we're in before. As a bounty hunter, I can feel the difficulty of trusting and finding a profitable campaign. But since bounty campaigns become more popular, scam campaigns also increases until those paying campaigns disappeared.

A good idea, but you are not talking exactly what we should do. Give us an advice how we can earn altcoins and please not answers like: write blogs, record videos and so on.  ;D

Well the market conditions were a lot different back in the 2017, the ICO scene was flourishing so bounty hunting was as well more profitable. You were able to liquidate pretty much every rewarded asset for a hefty amount, some rewards went 10x+ on the exchanges etc., so yes, those were the old gold days of bounty hunting.

Right now there are so many bounty hunters that are not earning a good income, because right now there are no good projects unlike before, that's why i am advising all of the bounty hunters to find alternative work, just like trying to so social mining.

Yes, you are right! Now the income from the bounty is not even enough to pay for electricity and the Internet. What a profit!  ;D
Social mining - maybe. But it is not yet clear whether this makes sense.

That's right and recently I encountered most of them are a scam and not being paid participants. Well, being a bounty hunter is not easy. You'll be able to experience all the things that you haven't encountered yet, Especially when it comes to losing. You might be able to lose but also you can earn big profit as well. All you need to do is to have a brave heart to conquer your emotions in order for you to be able to be a great bounty hunter.

I was a bounty hunter back in the days when it was quite fruitful to be one, but now it has become some kind of a hobby. When I like a project that runs a bounty campaign I'll definitely join it and put my resources to the promotional effort. If you do bounties for a living you might be better off just getting a regular job and get paid more and on time than doing those bounties whose tokens might not even get listed on an exchange.

Many bouny hunters on this forum have started their own bounty campaign service so they are now actually managing the campaign for projects instead of actively participating in them. You could consider that as an advancement.

I can't say the rewards are any less. Today, a lot of scam has appeared in the ICO industry. Bounty hunters spend a lot of time and get nothing in return. Today it is not even possible to conduct a good analysis of the project as now all projects are unpredictable. Even that project that has a functioning product and a good team can fail. So the bounty hunter community is getting smaller all the time. Now you can be a bounty hunter but your profit will depend on your luck.

Less risk to be a bounty hunter.  As for me I trade but more like of a holder, I don't do margin trading but just wait for pumps and sell. This is a comfort zone I guess at the same time, being a bounty hunter gets me some BTC to trade which is a lot better than just waiting for another BTC pump. It doesn't happen every day.  Less rewards doesn't stop bounty hunters from working, you me amaze what they can do to cheat for the rewards to consolidate.

Less risk for those who don't base on bounty hunting as a full time job, i bet we still have few people today who depend on bounty hunting as a full time job and for me i used to be a full time airdropper and i was able to make something good out of it, spending time on something that have no guaranteed can be time wasting and time is precious

If they make a job as a bounty hunter as a permanent or full time job, of course it will be detrimental to themselves, because honestly if the current conditions are very different from the bounty conditions in early 2017, where at that time in several times just following the bounty, we can get a sizable income, even then the tokens from the airdrop alone can generate us tens of dollars, but now many bounty projects are dead so, it is very difficult for us to get an adequate income. My advice is better to make bounty  hunters part-time, or side jobs, because indeed the income from being a bounty hunter is very small right now.

Apart from the problems facing crypto bounty projects presently like scam projects that will end up wasting your precious time and pay you nothing in the end there is other things to worry about, bounties that pay rewards nowadays is like getting rewards from airdrops infact its hard to differentiate airdrops and bounties because their rewards is on par with each other now

It's not really simple as you thinking. Two or three years ago bounty project was too much trust able than now. After lot of ICO scam project it's too hard to define which on is good and which on is not. Although we all see their are lot of projects, exchanges and bounty participants came in crypto world but investor didn't show their interest at all. That's why good projects (not scam, there is much different between scam and failed project) also didn't reach there goal.

So if i work as a bounty hunter with some good quality project and they didn't make their fund much then it's not come any exchange and again bounty hunters dump. Yes it's too much difficult time for hunters but good time will come for hunters though.

Well, it is because there are many bounty campaigns doesn't pay the hunters accordingly.
Delayed payments, the distribution delayed until the price on the market dump, causing the hunter sell with very low price.
I think it will takes time to find a good bounty campaign and really paying with the initial agreement from the beginning of the campaign.

I stopped being a bounty hunters since mid-2018. And now what I do is follow the campaign from Yobit, that's all. Because Yobit paid directly with BTC, instant. This is better than whining for payment from a very small bounty or a price that is beyond expectations.
What I do now is buy assets that have potential to benefit.I get fund from the results of being a bounty hunter 2-3 years ago. Lets moving guys

I do not require that every campaign I participate in is successful. If at least once a year it is possible to participate in a campaign with good rewards, then this year was a good one. Bad years have not yet happened to me. :)

There are many successful bounty in every year. But I have never been so lucky to be involved in those bounty.

You didn't give ways of improving one's coins earning. Straight to the point rather than just been a hunter, get a skill and develop yourself and accepting jobs on blockchain. One can choose to become a community manager or even an influencer or graphic designer and many more. Skill is the way.

you havent been involved ? only this year ? if you have joined a succesful bounty on the past then that is only an indication that the state of bonties are really degrading  . how can you say that there are so many succesful bounties every year when you yourself arent lucky enough to join one   . it only means that your lying or your im saying the truth  . for the user above , he must be lucky to join a profitable bounty and he said that he havent been failed ? wow thats impressive but idk maybe he is also lying to us since majority of the bounty hunter including the veteran ones are all suffering

Its a bit natural especially when the era of ICO where blooming, Too much ICO where lunched and investor is getting confused where ICO they should invest in. ICO before is serious thing but as I see today, More ICO are getting tripped just because they are only wanting to get money from the investors and the bounty hunters are getting scammed too by giving them some worthless tokens that they can't even exchange.

Many bounty hunters consider or make this as a side job, so they actually have other activities or online jobs or jobs in real life. They don't have much time to further improve their skills, and eventually they choose to continue to be bounty hunters or airdrops and hope the income from bounty will return as much as a few years before.

bounty hunters should definitely look for alternatives, most of the bounty progams nowadays are no longer reliable and to avoid wasting time on unnecessary and unprofitable bounty programs. BOUNTY HUNTERS SHOULD WAKE UP

The ICO hype is gone, the profitable bounty is gone too if the projects have no funds and they have not raised any money from the ICO nothing will be paid of course. Bounty hunting is like a gamble doing a task that you don't know if you get paid or not. Except for escrowed bounty. Do bounty as an extra source of income, not a job because bounty hunting cannot feed a family steadily.

If you are crypto hunter or bounty hunter what we call now then for sure you'll know that the possible earnings here in hunting bounty is very good and sometimes you didn't know I mean you didn't expect that high wages that you'll get. Advancing as a bounty hunter is good that is what we are doing everyday to be advance from the others. You can't just know it because day after day new bounty hunter just born.

The problem now is investors have no huge interest in new projects anymore unlike in 2017 when ICO was the best investment plan at that point in time, scammers make this happened and ICO has lost its glory, i bet its gone for good, now IEO is the better choice but still investors have no better interest because of lack of trust, bounty hunters are hurt based on this, the rewards will be low for sure

It is true that bounties are really bountiful before.
But now you cannot see a legitimate or if they really pay it will not be the same worth as they predicted it.

The market for crypto currency now is way far from it had been.
Before there are lot of buyers with small competition but now, you can see it already.

now investors are no longer even interested in ieo on large exchanges. the mood in the market is so bad regarding new projects that I don’t understand how they will continue to raise money

The problem is not the delay in payments, there is nothing to worry about. The problem is due to these delays. Projects do not raise funds, and they have to delay payments so as not to fall into the mud face.
But even when payments come, projects very often go out on weak exchanges, and are worthless. They are pushed to such exchanges by a lack of funds.

Bounty hunters this days looking for free money, and most of bounty hunters provide low quality of work, and did not help the project to success, that is why i think bounty not as before and profit not as before.

Bounties can still bring you profit, and it does not matter how bad the market conditions are. You just need to find a legit bounty that secured their soft cap, is planning to launch an IEO and has a working product.

That was a good advice that i heard from you mate, And that's true we need to be conquer our emotion even if we are losing something we work from the bounty we participate. So for now we need to brave and be aware to those scam bounty that we encountered always so that our work from bounty campaign are not going to nothing.

I have been participating in the bounty for a very long time and only 1 from 10 projects bring profit. the projects are constantly changing conditions, etc. now a very difficult market for bounty campaigns

Can you describe what low quality of work in bounty hunting means? i am very sure that participants that delivers low quality of works don't get paid, its always part of every bounty rules, every works you submitted are carefully checked by bounty managers before they reward you your stakes

yes if best time for hunter is 2 or 3 years ago, and im happy to be part of it. i know bounty will not be good like some years ago, and maybe for the future campaign will be more bad than right now, many altcoin born and die everyday. but for me, bounty campaign is just side job, and its fun to be here, share about what i think, and this thing never wasting my time.

Yes, the lack of fees, as a rule, complicates the life of projects, delays them, but if you look at the situation as a whole, in a few years this coin can cost much more, only working projects are very few.

Not a big point, the answer is there already, take a look at ETH which is the backbone of all erc20 based tokens, the ATH of ETH was 1,400$ if i am correct and now its at 180$, whatever you get from bounties will be affected by present market condition, if ETH can lose that huge percent of value its the same with all tokens and altcoins.

As a bounty hunter complaining is a sign of disappointment with the time and thought that has been spent on a bounty project that has been stopped or stopped on the road. Try to do a better business than before by doing research and others. Continue to choose to be a bounty hunter because the risk is smaller than other methods. All have their own points of view to be better than before.

How nice it is to be a bounty hunter 2 years ago, it feels like going back to the time when many bounties were still paying
when the social media bounty task didn't have to report in the thread and of course many bounties paid for our work

The income that bounty hunters get indeed decreasing compare to the economic situation two years ago and it is becoming difficult to find projects that it worth the time and effort. There is very limited to do unless you save up the money you earn from the bounty. If we can be wise with the profits we gain (even the small ones, that is a great amount if summed up), we can venture to the activities in the industry that need high capital like investing and trading.

It isn't a good phase of hunting for bounty hunters. Some of bounty hunters these days have looked for better way of earning because most of ICOs these days fail. Though there are still promising projects, bounty hunters can't rely everything there. Maybe when the market situation gets better, bounty hunters could go back to their way of earning as they did years ago. There's a season for everything.

Work on your failure and mistakes instead of complaining, try to be a better version of yourself and you will find your way, complains won't change anything unless you change yourself, i don't stop promoting bounty projects but i choose wisely for sure because i have learnt from my past mistakes and i am still learning to be a better self

Not everyone can leave the bounty hunting because they are stuck in the low profit and can't invest or trade full time because of the lack in capital. It is difficult to save a lot from bounty hunting and waiting for the exchanger eats a lot of time. And for the payment, if you found it earlier that it is delayed, may be you should evaluate the worth of continuing in that project because there are other projects out there that deserves your effort.

Good income days already over man for everyone bounty hunter because at this time no have any good successful project. But i want give you suggest don't leave Cryptocurrency world because here good extra income source for your life. You can learn about crypto then learning trading i hope you will makes profit if you got expensive good skills.

for most of the paper you can see cryptocurrency is the best option for part time investment as well as extra money for you. Bounty program is also one of the best option to earn money but nowadays.
Due to more number of scam projects. This bounty platform is completely changed as scam yard.

Cryptospace is vast and fast growing.  People should not confine themselves to the aspect of bounty hunting alone.  You could learn how to trade the ctypto market  or take up a role in a project.

I agree that us need to work on their mistakes, but you need to face the truth - there are practically no good bounty campaigns of, there are only a few of them. But us need to always be on the alert and monitor the development of this industry and the cryptocurrency market as a whole.

It all depends on what you call profit. If you spend 20 hours a week, and with some probability getting around $ 20-$ 100 is normal for you, then you can try yourself.
I would even say that this is a good amount, taking into account the time invested, however, as I said above, there is a risk that you will not get anything, this risk works unnecessarily often.

Its their discretion regarding payment. Also, they are putting a disclaimer as well regarding the rewards. If youre not happy with it, why not stop doing bounty hunting. No one will stop you mate, I like to reiterate that campaigns arent made to paid you like the investors who actually paid. Give thanks, if they pay you at least you can trade youre tokens later on without even investing.

I know you are new member in bounty campaign do not know how much earning at the early time when we are joining bounty campaign, today reward less is not wrong of bounty campaign manager and bounty campaign project but how lower price an ICO coin after listing with exchange market, just get free and what have to complain about bounty campaign with little reward or not.

Advance on what?,  to become a developer and create their own token or become a bounty manager and manage bounty campaign, majority of bounty hunters are also investors or mainly investors, they have nothing to advance on bounty hunting but being good in checking good projects, but they can advance as a savvy traders and investors.

advancing from being a bounty hunter to something different like trading or investing is what a bounty hunter is already doing. Aside from bounty hunting, most of the bounty hunters are trying to earn than being part of any project. They trade and invest in some altcoins where they assure that even if they dont get any bounty they still have something out of their sleeve, they still have something to make a profit.

There is nothing to advance on here, its still going to be same results from bounties, there is no way to detect serious devs, there is no way to detect good projects too even if you do they might have other issues later on, bounty hunting today can only be profitable if the token value skyrocket over its ICO price but since altcoin market is bad presently be satisfied with whatever rewards you get from bounties now until altcoin season begins

It is really hard to make you improve your financial situation unless you have some other job to make it improve and work hard for it. I am once a bounty hunter before and I don't think it's profitable because the payment is too long before you can get it.  And there is no assurance once the bounty project is done, you don't have any assurance that you will go to pay because there is no contract signing/scripture, just like other campaigns, but we take a risk and work hard for it.

How do you mean by them providing low quality of work? Majority of the hunters that you see participate more in Facebook and twitter campaign, aside the few ones that just go into signature campaign, and when it comes to working on twitter and Facebook, most hunters are just simply to share what the project developer or management team have on their page so that it can reach the world out there, and this does not have anything to do with appraisal again as it is a simple task.

Except maybe you are talking of those that are into signature campaign that is mandated to write some topics on behalf of the project on a particular period of time. The only thing I just have to say on that is that hunters are no longer respected, so they just have to look beyond just hunting alone, but much more opportunities.

Obviously bounty hunting is nowadays almost worthless, the payment is very small and too late, and in many cases you get scammed and don't receive your tokens after spending long weeks or months in advertising the project. I see that many experienced people left already this work, or become very selective of bounty campaigns. Only newbies still think that bounty hunting is a get rich quick scheme.

It is possible to find what you say but the best ones do not always be. Since the beginning of this year, I have seen that the bounties launched by ONEcoin and PPT have worked out well. Because most of the good projects started to think bounty was superfluous, the rest were mostly garbage. Bounty itself is worthless now, projects do not think they can do anything with it. I guess our current situation is not so bad, as time goes on, we will face a worse scenario.

I doubt that.  I think there are too many ico projects, not enough honesty among them, and people are finally starting to get wise to the rigged game.  The best days of bounty hunters are behind them, I'm afraid.

Anyone who would do all that 'work' in advance, just hoping they get paid at the end is a complete fool.  I think existing and future bounties ought to pay their bounty hunters up front with either bitcoin or Eth instead of tokens which could be worthless. 

Look at all the garbage posts in this thread alone.  That's the kind of 'work' bounty hunters do...it's spamming, plain and simple.  If you don't get paid or if the glory days are over, I really don't have any sympathy.

Bounty hunters earned well 3 years ago because the market value of their tokens are so big in which Bitcoin is ranging from $15,000 to $18,000 before but now that we are still in bearish market in which Bitcoin become much cheaper to trade and the projects are barely to hit the soft cap then it is natural to earned a smaller price value from the bounty reward that you recieved

Yes right now bounty needs more effort to get money, and i think it's still worth to do as a side job. Bounty paid with btcbor fiat is more profitable rather than paid with ico tokens with random price

I know bounties in which the hunters received in excess of $1,000 worth of reward, for a few weeks of effort. Those were the golden days and back in 2017 and the first half of 2018, we could find several such bounties. I have even heard of one incident in which one bounty hunter received $3,000 from a single bounty. But the situation has changed drastically, and now the most we can expect is $100 or $200 (if the payments are made as promised).

So unless you have some other method ready with you (such as a signature campaign that can pay in BTC), you need to look for other avenues. Spending 5-6 months on a bounty campaign for just $5 worth of tokens doesn't sounds very rewarding for me. My suggestion is to try the following:

1. Logo and signature designing (it doesn't take much time to learn)
2. Write articles related to crypto (either sell them, or monetize them using Adwords)
3. Do freelancing for crypto
4. Set up your own crypto-business (such as an exchange or an investment site)
5. Altcoin mining (this one is risky, but you can try)

Yes it is true, when compared to a few years ago it was very different. And for now more patience is needed because sometimes some projects extend their bounty campaign and when it is finished the bounty hunter must be patient waiting for the results and distribution of tokens, when the tokens have entered the wallet we must keep waiting for the tokens to be listed on the exchange. But if we participate in a good and potential project, our efforts will not be in vain.

For those who are a bounty hunter, just do your best guys and be good on promoting your projects, just like you said I am pretty sure that on the near future many good projects will come and the quality of the projects will be as good than the ICO year.
Many bounty hunters will go up and inspire because of the good and quality projects in the near future.

Personally, I believe that for a bounty hunter, a reward is a very good stable thing. But from today, the market situation is not very stable. And because of this, many bounty hunters stopped working in this area. But still, the most persistent still receive good rewards. So bounty hunters still have the opportunity to get a good reward.

They called bounty hunters to hunt a good bounty campaign project. But the saddest thing was most of the project now are failed in the end and turned into scam. And most of the time even it is scam they always didn't give the rewards and delayed the payment for them. Even bounty hunters complain they do nothing about it, so the winner always the opportunist or scammers who managed the project campaign.

I know a lot of bounty hunters who are a trader now. Airdrop and bounty are a very good and easy way to earn altcoins and after a certain amount earned, you can move to another section. I was a bounty hunter when I did 20-30 bounties at a day but now I do only signature and trade. So, not everyone sticks on bounties nowadays, some people always keep exploring more opportunities!

These experienced bounty participants are more likely to prefer joining weekly signature campaign as it's paying weekly and doesn't pay worthless tokens. Although it's not that huge compare from the money they get back in 2017, it's enough to sustain their wants and needs such as to gamble, trade, or shop online via cryptocurrency as mode of payment.

As it preferred to joining a signature campaign that has been paid weekly because we can't just rely upon on bounties as we know that it won't be profitable this time. Though most of us here experience bounties also before and we can justify its difference from what it has today, it is too different and most bounties turn into a scam which it badly ruining the situation.

Overall I understand what you mean by saying this. However, on the other hand the project didn't pay the bounty hunters according to what they wanted was for some reason. The reason is because the project didn't want the price of the token to fall too far at the beginning of listing on the exchange. Usually hunters always do massive dumps after listing and only a few of them really support the project.
But if we look at the hunter side, they also need to get paid for the results of their hard work. I hope in the future every project can overcome this kind of thing.

So whats your suggestion for advancing?? i felt you'd drop tips which would be very valuable to advancing

Because the most hunters are treated as trash. This is that simple, investors and team members think that they got all those tokens for free and investors paid for their tokens, so they should have advantages and get more profit.

I think some bounty hunters are already thinking ahead by placing the bounty token into several coins that look potential. Bounty hunters who have long had an investment portfolio and not just rely on bounty tokens because the bounty conditions are not as good as before

Personally I have advanced in the search of projects to participate as a bounty hunter, haven't regretted ones if choosing a project that end in scam. The problems are from the bounty hunters, they can't carry out their research on the project they intend to invest or even participate in. Many of them have been scammed, and still many of them on their way to scam. As a bounty hunter if you can't research into a project then, don't cry anymore if your work or investment went down the drains.

You are right. All we know that being bounty hunter is a choice. From the start you know the risk that you will be face once you deal on this kind of work or activity. I agree that our present situation is worst if we compare it from the bounty activity from past two years. But we are here to earn and if we think that bounty is not worth it then go with other activity.

I have been participating in bounty campaigns for more than 2 years and I think that I can analyze campaigns, but they still turn out to be scammers now.

Typically bounty hunters are missed by projects. Most of the time they don't even get paid for the work they have done. Projects think it's easy to share some messages for which they can cheat people. It's pathetic situation.

I don't want to say that all the bounty campaigns are bad. However, it is true that the vast majority of them never pays and even those who make the payments on time have very low payout rates. The question here is whether it is still profitable to go for these bounty campaigns. There may be a few which still pays. But is it worth the time and effort? If you ask me, I would say that right now it is better to stay away from them. And also, the Bitcoin dominance is rising with every passing day and that can also have a negative impact on the bounty payments.

Bounties are good too actually, but, most of the time, scam projects are just using bounty hunters for them to gain more users to looks like a legit one. So, for those who are just earning from bounties, you may find other ways to earn and not just rely on them. Making profit in bounties nowadays is so impossible.

Since most of bounty hunters came from 3rd world countries and mostly they are teenagers under 25 y.o. So I'm pretty sure they don't have that much skill to offer, also they think that doing bounty hunting is so much easier because you can literally doing it anytime. Easy money easy task we can say

Bounty hunters should move-on and stop complaining about their previous bad experience, they should learn to adopt on the current situation and find other ways to earn on this space like investing a small amount of their earnings on a good coin while still doing bounty campaigns or try to learn how to trade and start with a small capital.

Meaning your research has not been enough, for those who actually spent more time to research into the project will definitely find out what will give them the signs of a project be a scam at the end or not. For the purpose of security, many projects on this forum are not legit because they lack teams also they lack social media updates.

When compared to previous years, the bounty recently has a fairly long distribution and listing period. Moreover, rumours have circulated that what causes the price of tokens or coins to become a dump is the act of a bounty hunter, even though if the development team has a good strategy informing market capacity, then it can be handled well. As a result, distribution for most bounty hunters has been postponed, and some have even been postponed for up to four months after the bounty is over, isn't it ironic?
But that's the risk, we must be patient and be more selective.

Not so many people are able to identify good projects, but might be very sound in other aspects, depending on which is easy for them to understand and work on. Bounty is becoming very tough and some people are already running away from it, perhaps for other ways of earning or making profits.

bounty participants must be wiser in managing their income, whether large or small the income received will have an effect if they use it for money turnover. because now it is difficult to remain a participant in the campaign because of the low pay and innovation of a project that is still not succses fully that makes the current project does not run well

True must be wiser and be smart before joining bounty signature be smart and always check if the projects are good.
Many participants are complaining after the project done becuase they don't receive the salary as a mention to the post of manager.
Be smart now before joining.

I agree with your opinion, I often get paid but the token I get locked in a month after the market is opened.

Well, some people just do campaigns or bounties at their free time while multi tasking other things. It's quite easy to do and hassle free if you've got it well in your groove. I'd say that if you want to earn more then yeah, going for other things would be more profitable, but doing campaigns is still not bad.

Also, some bounty campaigns are still pay decently.

It's hard to think positively especially these days because the past years have not been so friendly to bounty hunters. The market is very low and has dumped badly and bounty hunters has no control of it. That is the painful truth. This business is a trial and error and the probability of earning really big is low. It's just a matter of patience and determination.

Do you know why many people choose to be involved in bounties instead of trading and other assorted investments in the Cryptocurrency space? Bounties are safe. The worst decision you could make in bounty hunting is to join a project that ended up not doing well or not paying, you don't invest your own funds unlike trading and other investments where you could lose your funds, this is why some people are still bounty hunting even after making tens of thousands of dollars from this job and even though it's not as lucrative as it used to be.

Many of us are cryptocurrency enthusiasts and we want to be involved in this space somehow without having to spend our own funds and bounty hunting gives us this opportunity.

Now bounty hunting is like finding water in the desert with a wooden stick.

There are certainly chances, and rather rather big ones, but nevertheless every month they are decreasing and decreasing.
The point is not that there are no good projects, although in fact there are almost no, but that the market itself has changed.

The market no longer needs useless projects aimed exclusively at speculation, it is full of them.
Now on the market are delayed only those projects that are capable of changing at least something, for example, the sphere of finance.

Indeed, many participants became bounty hunters because of the quick profit, but these times have passed. Now, in order to get good money, you need to carefully study the project (to be able to identify a fraudulent project) and work hard to earn something, but I think that even in such conditions you need to continue your work and not complain about the failures.

Skills advancement is the best thing to do always advance wherever you see yourself one skill might not stay relevant till the end of times. As a hunter you can learn some graphic design skills to keep being relevant

but other ways like what you mean, because not all crypto users can do it. like me personally not long ago and can only make small trades other than being a bounty hunter. and in that connection, I experienced more ico scam projects than projects that did not pay this year.

Patience is the key here. you can still continue of you will full your bags of patience and your determination to succeed is as high as your optimisticity regarding to this market. many traders and bounty hunters failed due to lack of patience, make sure you can handle those pressures with volatility and many other relative factors that may affect the movements around this market.

Reward for bounty campaign right now small than past two years later where with joined social media campaign we can earn many ethereum, right now joining signature campaign with higher rank or account level still get small earning but I never give up for joining with bounty campaign, I think bounty campaign is the best free way how to earn bitcoin and altcoin.

Absolutely that is why I decided to take a rest with bounty hunting and focused on trading for like 8 months. Now maybe it's the time to get involve again with bounty hunting since the market is rising and mass adoption is scattered on different industries. I still remember the gains of bounty hunting 2 to 3 years before, that was the most of bounty hunting experience.

Only those who can get over the present pressure of bad market can have enough courage to keep hunting, you get your tokens or coins after bounty ends but they are worthless, this happens a lot now and the only way to make something good out of bounties is to hunt for solid projects, even if the reward is low they will add more in value when market recovers

As bounty hunters, we must also develop. From the beginning I jumped into the bounty hunter I didn't know what cryptocurrency and blockchain was. after I learned it I began to understand, the future of technology called blcokchain. From the bounty hunter then I continued to develop it, I participated in various campaigns and got tokens from the projects I was working on, then I learned how to sell these tokens and get money. I started to learn trading. Bounty hunter must continue to grow, if the bounty hunter does not develop, the business is less than optimal. Until now I still survive as a bounty hunter and trader.

There is not effective ways to earn bitcoin and eth in crypto space than through bounties and airdrops, i am not into trading because its very easy to lose money when trading, no matter what i will keep hunting for bounties, i never expected things to be easy that is why i am a self made stubborn ass

yes, patience is an important role for project investors and altcoin holders, if you are not patient you will lose money faster. the current market sector is reasonable, I mean the market has passed its good times in 2017 and 2018-2019 we are all being tested. my advice remain patient and do other options to supplement your income such as daily trading.

We've been doing that since the start of bearish market to rule over the marketplace, though hurt feelings affects our mode of life but it doesn't stops us. Positive visions is our only inspiration to pursue those dreams that most of us are longing for.
Change is needed to build a serious commitment, and being a hunter isn't an easy task so we must make sure every job that we do will gain it's worth.

Though bounty hunting is not a free work, but yet this one is very easy for everyone that has no risk to lose your money. If you want to lead your earning through trading, you need a good amount of money, therefore, most of the new traders have been failed in trading! So, trading is not everyone's job. Where bounty hunting is convenient for everyone. That's why people still doing bounties regularly even after getting scam continuously!

And, yes, many bounty hunters become trader lately, they earned a good amount of money and now they ate doing the trade!

Bounty hunting isn't as it used to be and some BMs are not just good to hunters again

Yes, that's why we should keep in mind that although bounty hunting is very easy task, but, they were a great help in a project, there's also bounty hunter who are also investing in a project once they think that the project is feasible, they will not waste time and they will not be just bounty hunter, so we should take care of them too, as the lost of their time from bounty hunting could also lost their money from their investment.

Adaptation is always key in order to succeed in this world. The world has always been about the survival of the fittest hence the same principle can be applied in the world of cryptocurrencies and obviously bounty hunting. Certainly, you can't rely on bounty hunting alone to accumulate coins, you can also try trading and mining if you have the means.

sometimes good projects are difficult to obtain at this time.
it's been a long time for me not to get a project that truly appreciates bounty hunters.
remember the time that has been wasted will never be back.
as a bounty hunter, don't expect too much from the bounty done if you have too much hope, you will feel a huge disappointment if the project is scam.

in my opinion many investors who participated in the bounty were afraid to participate in the project because many projects gave prizes in the form of tokens that had no price and value and now investors must be smart and serious in analyzing each project that investors will participate in and pay attention to the team behind the project the

I guess you are right about exploring other means to earn in crypto space. Since most bounty hunters really solely on bounty programs that's offered here in the forum, most of them forgot or does not know the real essence why this community is created. Of course through joining bounty campaigns, we learned lots of ways on how to grow in crypto so we should use it in our advantage and try investing in it.

Obviously not like before, because now there have been many changes that have taken place in various aspects, especially in hunting down bounties, because the bounties now are very different from the old bounties.

The reason why bounties became so much different than before due to scams and fraudulent projects that a lot of bounty hunters have wasted a lot of energy and time from promoting and participating in their project. Hoping that in a few months or days bounties could be good as the old days that most bounty hunters earned their rewards in the right time and they didn't get scam.

The bounty campaigns right now are not that good compare to 2017 as the market situation are almost opposite, we are almost at the bottom right now compare to 2017 that the market is almost at it's peak so most of the projects are successful and they easily list their tokens after reaching the softcap or hardcap.

If you are complaining about the delayed bounty payments and etc. then it will be best that you should change strategy now or you can just have a vacation as you are only wasting your time and effort if you will continue hunting while receiving only a few bucks after the bounty ends.

I like your saying: "the rewards are now small compared to what you could get two to three years ago and not only that, but now you have to pay more time than before". This is what I have always thought and I think this is not a good time for the bounty hunter!

not the best time, but not the worst. Now spending your time and getting free coins you have the opportunity to earn cryptocurrency if you do not have money for investments. in the future, cryptocurrency will be so expensive that you cannot buy it or get it in any campaigns

Bounty hunting can really be frustrating this days cause hunters face different challenges and difficult tasks tonearn peanuts, some projects will mandate KYC hunters before receiving rewards etc. Despite all this shortcomings, i still think that bounty hunting is still worth it cause you will get to eaen free tokens with spending your funds.

One thing you need to know is change, every system get changing as the world is moving higher with technologies in advance version, Hence payment of bounty hunter as a reward have to beer the patient of the time delay rewards and also more useful in future time.

Personally, I am very glad that the number of bounty hunters is now very reduced. Of course, it is not possible to make money on this as before, but promising projects still remain. Therefore, I believe that this direction is still not dead and it is still possible to get a good profit.

If this quality that you have, most especially being stubborn at achieving you set goals or targets, then you should be able to do anything, no matter how tough it might seem. For instance, trading requires a lot of determination and courage. It requires someone with a mind that is made up. You can just give a trial and you will see that you can do it.

Less participant means increased reward. Bounty can be done at any time and does not take much time and this is probably why many bounty hunters do not leave it. With bounties, everyone has the opportunity to have tokens or tokens easily, but maybe because the market is not good right now, many bounty hunters prefer to stop first

If 2 to 3 years ago then there is really a huge difference from doing campaign before and now. Yes, today is so much pressure and hardship before even earning a pretty good profit in bounty unlike before that only few people are doing it but mass adoption is growing fast so lots of people added. The more it added the mote rewards will be divided resulted to small amount of tokens earned.

yeah, i feel the same as you. indeed a few years ago becoming a bounty hunter would make us rich because there are many projects that have developed well, at present the conditions are very much different.

maybe because the current market situation is so bad that many projects fail and bounty hunters don't get money from their work. so, many bounty hunters choose to pause.

times have changed, and I'm sure the heyday will repeat itself. therefore there is no point in us complaining. We have had a good time 2-3 years ago and now we are at the bottom. I think continuing to work and support potential projects will be better

Indeed, we can get tokens for free, but if there is no value, there is no price. because now we have been working for too long but don't get paid. Even from the many projects that I participated in, I can name only a few that are able to provide me with payment and can be sold on the exchange. the rest is worthless and disappointing

Nice suggestion. But what other means can one explore? Apart from trading, is there any other means of making cool profits from the space? I have heard mining is lucrative but getting the necessary tools and softwares for mining can be more expensive.

I am looking with bounty campaign paid with bitcoin only, have tired with many bounty campaign payment by ICO coin because have lower price after listing and little reward distribution giving by bounty campaign manager, now I in signature bounty campaign paid with bitcoin we can count how much earn every week and how much our earning every month with signature campaign bounty.

yes, it is true that the prize from the current signature campaign is not reliable and is different from the previous 2 years when the ICO boomed in 2017 there were many successful projects and the prize hunters got big prizes. and now the opposite happens, many scam projects, project products fail, participants are not paid, distribution of tokens is slow, tokens are difficult to be listed on the exchange etc.

There are many other ways where you can purchase many potential coins and start staking them in their concerned wallets. Yes, for mining you need to spend a lot of money for equipment, even though you will get a less amount through staking but it will definitely help you to make some decent income through staking.

It is true, the present hunters are not the first. Many are complaining about the payment and just on pay is not how and also the project is dead pointless.
Always an extended promotion project is somehow in the thought of being postponed and not fruitful to the good results but wasted time alone. But that's just the way we get money from being bounty hunters or airdrop alike.

if you want to progress and not just rely on being a bounty hunter then it all depends on your skills in this field. I personally do not have any skills other than just trading and investing long term, but at least what I make from trading is more than enough. and it is important in exstra trading to be patient and not greedy.

I personally think that this is not a good time for bounty hunters right now. Bounty hunters are not as easy to make money as 2 years ago, competition is increasing and rewards are significantly reduced.

You are newbie only right how do you know that people where earned more money and now it is not the right. You need to know how the bounty hunters being active and serve here with their assistance and replies to people.
I agree some spammers also there but see that balance people who actually contribute more to the people.

Like me, I still have the interest of hunting at heart and never lost the love for it because it is what I have gotten used to since I got introduced to cryptocurrency, but I have paused a bit in participating in so much projects because most of the ones that I have done is yet to pay me, and now that we have so many projects that are just wasting ones time by not paying.

What I just do is to look at projects carefully before buying them, and I pick little that I know that I am sure of, and also the ones that I know will not be taking my time up to that 3 months that some projects do give as their own ending time. Once the bear market is also over too and altcoins start rising again, I believe that the interest of many hunters will also be revived again.

I do not agree here that the bounty hunter also has the right to get their rewards right away because they also suffered here and did their best to promote the bounty campaign. So if this is going to be the system it is unfair, it is best not to immediately list the coins in the market especially if it is only on shit exchange which will further lower the price of the coin and further reduce the value of the reward of bounty hunter who should also benefit from their hard work and sacrifice in order for the campaign to raise huge funds.

Then, three years ago, it was possible to earn so much money on this that it would be possible from that day not to work to this day and to provide for yourself well. Now many of my friends use this method as an alternative way to earn money, since you won’t earn such a lot of money already, and moreover, you can’t count on stable income since projects sometimes don’t pay for several months.

Experience could really be of use, especially if you will apply and use it for something new. But since bounty hunters have only been bounty hunters for how long they might have been one, their experience might not have been enough to be of any use in entering other field. Although, yes, they can't just cry and complain about how big their income have decreased compared to what they had years ago, hunters might be on this dilemma of doubting what they already know, wondering if they could already use their experiences as their swords upon entering a new battleground metaphorically and that might be what stops them from doing so.

Being a bounty hunter does not hinder anything, it doesn't stop you from trading, investing or whatever else you hard in mind, bounty hunting is a kind of job that gives you opportunity to earn an extra income, it doesn't stop you from having a real job or doing something useful with your life,  there are lots of old members in this forum that still do campaigns and wear signature, but it didn't stop them from doing anything else they do,
You are also a hunter wearing cryptotalk signature, have you put in practice all that you have mentioned above?

That is why doing bounty is just my part-time thing or job that helps me with my finances though it is not that profitable for the past year still it is still good for a backup. Actually, I started as a bounty hunter and when I earned some not a lot, I invested and trade as well though I am still a newbie and experienced a lot of failures especially when it comes to investing cause I was scammed like 3 times in a row last year, lesson learned that is why now, I am trying to be really careful when it comes to that! Now, learning more about trading cause this is my hard-earned money that I am using.

Welll, i don't find more content here or anything that contains more information regarding what exactly you want bounty hunters to explore more in the crypto space, if it was more detailed probably there should be suggestions on what exactly you want hunters to explore. Probably other available options like "designing a thread" "info-graphics"  and many others to mention a few.

Just look around, even the most trusted users here are still up to gain more BTC which most of the bounty hunters are up to. Those who are joining the bounty campaigns for altcoins are just going to sell those coins they have for BTC. Except for those who really believe that projects are backed by good developers and you'll see those coins on top of the list. Those coins are not dumped so much but are traded well by the looks of their volume per day.

Im doing this bounty for almost 2 years and still running. Since beginning i dont really mind if i dont get paid because bounty is just a part time job. The profit from year to year getting small but there is a few project that give a good reward. Dont expect money on bounty go find real job instead complaining every single project.

The first thing I do is to read their road map in order not to tie my fund down for unnecessarily long time. I then read the whitepapers if not to good to be achievable. The last is to check the authenticity and track records of the project team members as well as the CEO.

It is true, right now the gifts from the bounty are very different when compared to a few years ago. But this is indeed a natural thing when seeing the bounty is currently not so profitable compared to a few years ago, many of which failed and scam projects may be the influence that makes it difficult to attract investors and cause the project can not achieve the targets they want.

I started to participate in bounty campaigns in 2017 year. Participation in the bounty gaves me the opportunity to earn BTC and ETH without additional investments. The first payments were small, unfortunately, but now they are equal to payments for this year. I have experience and knowledge I will continue to work as a hunter because  this is an interest and excitement.

You can't blame people for blaming other people because they wasn't paid what has been promised. They did their part and so as devs. But, if the project was a flop then you can't blame those devs, they also hold their judgement and change the jury whenever they want. But these bounty hunters are not contributing to the actual success of the coin. When it has gone to the market, they will race to just dump their coins.

That's one of the reasons why bounty hunting for crowdfunding is in the sorry state, they are abusing bounty hunters, some developers are also locking bounty hunters token and will only be released it after investors and the developers made a profit, bounty hunters are left with crumps or leftover from profit.

The dishonest decisions by the teams kill the potential return of the bounty campaigns from my experience. The lock period is there for a reason, the longer the bounty hunters hold the bounty tokens, the better the price will be available for the real investors. The faith of bounty hunters depends on the market conditions and teams don't care about the bounty distribution.

Many hunters are still unpaid of what they did with ICO. For the last two years since ico exploded, many hunters assumed that bounty campaigns will be a game changer to our life. We invest our time promoting them yet only few  gives back. I hope soon there will be a regulation for us bounty hunters not to lose our life for only a non sense projects.

Bounty hunters also have the right to receive their rewards and sell at high prices. So I do not agree with your suggestion that bounty hunters do not pay their reward immediately. Because bounty hunters have become more involved in making the bounty campaign successful.

Bounty hunting like any other crypto facets is not a sure thing. I agree that bounty hunting was more productive in the past, it still produces good rewards once you join a legitimate campaign. One should look at it as a look term investment also that potential big rewards take time to happen. Patience is important.

But the project itself cannot give any guarantee that when their altcoin hits an exchange, it will have a high prices. So whichever it is, no one can't really be blamed.
Despite how successful the project was, it's not always have a good outcome. Some might survived in value, but the others barely survived in the market or even become valueless.

But it's amazing how loyal some bounty hunters are, even with the extended week or the team keep delaying the payment, they still participate in most bounties.
And each time it's getting harder to notice good bounty and less rewards and all.

our patience not work now, many Bounty reward has no value when it enter in market. Too many holder that thinking dump their token will save them from losses, and evenmore developers team didnt work well. There is no more hype that could drive token price . we dont know what will happen to Bounty in future since many projects prefer directly IEO in any exchange,so more budget for bounty campaign.

This is a sad reality that there is no permanent in this world that not everything we want will come true every time, and there is risk in everything we are doing, and this is the consequences of our carelessness. If we have been very careful and not allowing scammers to scam us, maybe ICO still alive up to this date, and if we invested our money wisely from the earnings we had in bounties before then we should not regret things at all unless we just spend it to unnecessary things.

Indeed. the successful of the project is also from bounty participants. they are working hard to spread the project. it is not just an easy task for an hunter to attract investor and believe what they spread. they also involve in the project to achieve its goal. without this marketing strategy they will spend more money on advertisement. bounty hunters have the choice to complain because without them some project won't succeed.

believe it or not, bounty hunters are often considered the lowest part by developers after they do ico, some of them consider the hunter's work unimportant and equate them as free money hunters, especially when they only touch softcap etc., I often read them from various telegrams from each project.

it is better for bounty hunters now to look for other income options, because many projects end in obscurity.
