Many find it hard to invest any money on bitcoin or altcoin but now that we are in a good crypto year I think its wise if you hold few good top coins but if you don't have any money make sure you hold parts of coins or tokens you earned from bounty, remember what happened to most bounty rewards in 2017? I feel same thing will happen this year, I still see people who hold GowithMi tokens and they are happy holding it, just a piece of advice

But make sure they are good projects, some bounty projects are better dump off than holding them, you have to find that out yourself, example of good bounties was Tokoin, Gowithmi, Sero, TemTum, they are worth holding, thanks

Don't expect 2017 to be back again for bounty projects because now a days all the ICO projects are shit and very less likely to be successful which means you are wasting a lot of your times with no gain almost.

It's not always like that.

Some bounty hunters don't have a choice to sell it because it's on a total loss if they will allow it to happen. So, they chose to keep it instead and hope that there will be a reversal and it will make that coin alive and will be sold at a better price.

Not for this year but it must be a few years later. Bitcoin is about to search for good support again to build the golden momentum again. But that's actually true if that will be a good decision to store some of our tokens for the future. I have regularly invested in bitcoin and altcoin to anticipate the same trend that happened in 2017. As long as the altcoin has proper development progress and that worth to keep in our wallet.

Those coins that you have already mentioned worth short term holding but not for the long term. it's better to search for the coins that have a very strong correlation with the bitcoin movement.
Isn't it temtum need more recognition to be mentioned on your list?
I prefer to put small money into the new coin that has the same potential as those coins. Elixxir is one of the best answers to that.

Do not expect too much, although yes this year , halving may happen but I will not expecting that 2017 era will happen again, a lot of bounties now are turning to scam, many coins are beginning to be shit, many exchanges are closed now due to the unstable market, if you are holding coin ,then I think if you have not enough money, sell the half of it,  every payment from bounties are a blessing for just participating on it ,it still a money , then if you like you may hold the half of it, do not regret selling if you do not have enough money rather than not selling at all and turns into shit coin.

Be carefull as well because there will be many investor who will think a thousand of time to keep the coin that he bought. I mean, if you think that this year will apparently same with 2017 then you should think 2018 as well where all of cryptocurrencies were decreased.

I'm okay with those assets that you hold because you have your own prediction against them. But, don't be greedy if you've got profit then sell them and find another safe place to store your money. Remember, there will be many people who stuck to keep their money because they were think their asset will up more and they didn't sell them until now.

I agree with you that the good times of bounty have ended, especially the project mentioned by op, but what most op discussed is ieo project not ico project, but ieo period seems to have ended because it is rarely a good ieo project that holds a bounty, but a few days ago binance held a ieo bounty whose rewards are pretty good which is unfortunate is the reward that is partially locked but it's worth it in my opinion because the price of wazirx is currently good.

Better convert them into bitcoin or ethereum straight away when your bounty token listed on any exchange so you have less risk of losing the value of your earned bounty and in long run you might multiply them.

This is something against the bounty you participated but who cares? Even the team starts to dump tokens soon when it becomes tradeable.

This coin is indeed good from the bounty project and many of it produce from this bounty but I am not sure to hold this coin for a long time, I better sell and then hold other coins at the top because it will be safer or minimal risk.
Bounty cannot be relied on anymore because many projects have died in the middle of the road due to lack of funding so that many have left.

It takes more than courage to hold on to your coins you earned from bounties because I myself learnt the hard way, I hold a coin that was worth 200$ and in my own eye it goes down to 10$, the best strategy is selling off the coins and buying bigger coins like BTC or ETH

Yea i also said this many time as there is a prediction that this year will be a good year for crypto anyone who is holding top coins must wait, because there is a hope for good future and your wait will now give good retunr

I will say we bounty hunters have our stakes in top coins. When a bounty campaign pays hunters, convert some to Bitcoin or Ethereum to stay safe a little bit.

but as long as I follow the bounty (except for 2017), I have never gotten an income, because coin that I got from the bounty has no price, volume and the project has no progress, so that makes the coin into shitcoin, therefore in my opinion for now finding a good bounty is very difficult, but I hope that in 2020, there will be many good bounty that will provide us with the same income as in 2017.

In regards to hunters, i do not think dump off is what is actually done.
Bounty tokens are sold for value, not dumped.

It is true that volatility is high and risk of doing a fake Bounty is enormous, but if you calm your nerves. Do your research, there's alot available Bounty that is positive.

There are a huge number of Bounty Campaign. A very large number of projects. But I like your remark very well. It's a bit of a way to get diversified until one ends up paying.

Actually we cannot say at all that it will be the same as in 2017. The condition is a little bit different now. Now, we find so many projects and most of them are down too much after listing. Some of them are failed to enter the market. Moreover, this year is still not considered a bullish year.
We may expect the growth of more tokens or coins from our bounty rewards. However, try to be calmer, do not expect too much because it may go wrong.
Some coins may survive and can be promising but some coins are like the others, being shitcoin or a dead one.

This is the strategy of most bounty hunters that remain faithful to bounty hunting and still trying their best to find luck with it. They keep joining bounties until they end up with the one that's true and going to pay their efforts.

It is not only the bounty hunters that are dumping and selling what's being determined as it's price. Include also the investors because they knew it that a massive sell off will come once a token gets into exchanges.

Nah, to tell you 2017 is more on hypes that is why we saw the market soaring high and so shitcoins as well. But if we think that it will happen this year, you'll find it wrong because there are no such hypes being played around and only halving we relied on to have possible Bullrun. But this not really convincing enough to see bullish and pretty early to say that. If ever we have this Bullrun again this year, it goes differently and couldn't expect that dead coins or scam projects will follow as well. It is better not to fall that kind of imagination coz the market works differently by now.

I agree with your holding advice because those coins were gem and still a gem! I am holding TEM, SERO because I believe in the next bull run, these coins will be big! But you shouldn't expect the same situation in bounty like 2017! Those days are over for bounties! If Bitcoin even reaches to 30-40K USD, then still bounty world will not have golden time like before.

Agree, many ICO projects are shit, but if you think all ICO project, you are 100% wrong.
Good or Bad ICO is depends on how the ICO team handled it. There are also the ICO already hardcap but failed after they list in exchange.

it takes patience and careful research that there are still many classy projects and I agree with your opinion. although we also do not close our eyes that many projects that only just want to produce a momentary profit and do not want to try to develop. but by sharing information, we can be sure that such a project will disappear by itself. so do not hesitate there is still as bright as the hope in front of us and remain critical and wise to sort it out

Not all the bounty projects deserves to be hold. Some of them must be sold as early as possible because its price might be able to drop sooner or later because of the lack of control of the developers to the supply and the exchange that they have chosen. Also, there are some projects that needs to be hold for its price to rise up even more. Those project will for surely gonna be successful and give you a big amount of profit.

thats why they are always complaining about the rewards of bounty hunters . Because they want to sell it earlier once its available to trade . If its really a good project and have long term potential they will not be affraid for bounty hunters selling thier rewards . You dont even need to blame bounty for the price decrease, its normal that they will sell it and that was thier  reward so they are the one who will decide what will gonna do with it.

Until now I still hold some tokens that I got from the 2017 bounty campaign, because I think it's feasible and the project is good. It takes patience to hold the token from the bounty especially when I see ATL touch, I think it will happen panic sell for fear that the price will go down. But not for me, I believe that one day the token that I hold will bring a big profit.

Not a good advice.. It's always better to convert your earnwd tokens from bounty into bitcoin, ethereum, xrp or even bch (but dont trust forked coins of btc).

Many people still losing on trading so its not unsual to have some loss on your portfolio.. Dont assume that the market will be same like what happened on 2017. The people learned from mistakes by investing on too much ICOs and this time they will be wise to choose which is which to buy this time. If you think your tokens on your wallet isnt that special or no potential at all dont waste your time holding it. Trust me it will be near zero value in the future..

It's always good to hold top coins in your wallet. Bitcoin now takes a positive pace to rise it's price and i think this will be continuously. I don't see good alts for this year now that's why just top coins are good to hold in your wallet.

We couldn't be so sure that bounty would be worth it,
But we could always try it and who knows maybe some of the campaign that we would join would give us a good payment and their token/coin would be high value on the market.

Same here I currently hold a token that I earned from bounties way back 2018, that time the price of my token is worth $1000 but I missed the chance to sell due to delayed distribution, now the price is $80. I keep holding it hoping the value will somehow recover to an acceptable price to sell.

This year we cant expect the scenario will be like 2017. The market started to become bullish but its not certain if this will going to last long. Holding top coins are good as usual so better stick to it instead of buying worthless coins.

there is no harm on trying  . who dont have any capital needed to join them aside from some spare time  , so we must not complain too much  . if we earn we thank them but if no then move on  .  its always a good idea to hodl out everything you have because you yourself isnt also unsure   . but one thing is for sure that earning huge will always satisfy every one of us   . if you earn big , your efforts that you laid off wil be nothing and will all be worth it than when you only sell for some cheap profits because you dont hodl or wait  .

There is indeed a hope that hopefully in 2020 the price will improve, I join Tokoin, Gowithme and Temtum, but only the remaining Tokoin I still hold. For others I have released

What many failed to see about the success of ICO was the Hype that's now lost in crypto space, its never coming back, which is why I belief we will never see a year like 2017 again until a new project fundraising that's better than ICO and IEO rises up

Holding tokens or coins earned from bounty campaigns can be disastrous when they get listed on exchange, some will start very good but after few months they become useless, new projects are just way too risky to keep for long term, I prefer selling and going for Ethereum and Bitcoin

Holding your rewards from your bounty campaigns is a good idea especially if they have a potential to grow but for those shit projects it will be best if you will sell it right after you receive it so you can still earn a little.

Most of the bounty hunters are very greedy in terms of their bounty rewards especially if they wait like 4-6 months before they receive it therefore most of them are selling their rewards right after they receive it without thinking whether they can still earn more if they are going to hold it for few months. If you are not in need of money yet, it will be best if you will think twice before selling your rewards especially if they have a potential to dominate the market in the future.

 

Really the last time I tried holding a bounty token that looks promising to me ends up a worthless project, for four weeks the hype keeps increasing and it start affecting the price too, from 0.0012 it grows up to 0.003$ I still refused to sell thinking it will grow higher, today the value of this coins is 0.0001$, I won't repeat this mistake again

if you can still get the results from the bounty campaign then you should be able to be thankful and use these results to grow your assets because at this time the bounty campaign cannot be relied on so you should be able to manage your financial condition, maybe you can also by searching work in the real world so you don't depend on bounty campaigns.

Come on man, even though we aren't going to see 2017, that doesn't mean there will not be a successful project among those projects bounty hunters will participate in. Many projects have been successful after the 2017 period, remember this; that in every successful project with a hunter yield more profit than anyone with regular signature campaign. Also, they have first hand information about newly successful tokens to trade.

Here is the best trick, always sell some portion of your bounty rewards and leave few ones in your wallet, for example sell 90% and hold 10% in your wallet to take advantage if there will be any future altcoin season

That's right, currently I had to participate on a bounty campaign with payment Worth's 5,630 tokens, then these tokens were worth $50 altogether but I hold these tokens tilldate, and guess what? The worth of that token now is $0.7, very bad. That's the result of holding tokens for too long, lesson to learn; sell off whenever you are paid the token immediately, delay is Lazarus!  ;D

This is what I do most of the time whenever I received the allocation I get. If I like the project then I hold it for as long as I can. But if the project dont have a future then I already sell it otherwise I will regret it because they will dump so hard turning into worthless. Then after I dump that bounty tokens then I buy some top coins in the market that I like.

This is also good suggestion. Some tokens are long term before they bloom and those who received bounty tokens are sometime regret they sell cause of fond dumping on those tokens they got received. Some also got hype on the project and hold their tokens and later on becomes a scam which is the worst. I prefer to sell majority and let the remaining in the wallet too cause sometime we miss the chance that the project is real and has potential to become major coins on the future.

Bounty projects can't be trusted for long term holding, in a blink of an eye they can be worthless, for safety its better to sell some of the coins and leave very little behind, this us what I do most times and if good days do come I won't miss out either

True, it is indeed better to sell new coins at the beginning of the listing, because basically the new coins must have a faster development in order to be more valuable in the market, if not so, it will be very easy to experience a price dump.

I also do things like that, because not all projects will be as good as big projects, but if I get a token from the bounty and don't have a price, I won't sell it, I prefer to hold back, who knows the token will go to the moon  ;D

Don't mix things up, ICO projects are not available anymore, even developers that have no experience about how crypto works will never use ICO to raise funds, gone are those days where ICO was king, now the Crown is sitting on the chair till another worth king takes over, not even IEO is that close

very true to all that you say, that this year is a good year for crypto, and I also believe this year can be repeated again as in 2017, and moreover, now is approaching halving time, and that will potentially increase price.

Bounty projects might not have any increasing demand on the exchanges once they get listed because a lot of bounty hunters might have the same point of perspective as you and they might sell their tokens as soon as they saw the token hitting the exchanges. That is what dumps the price for the token. If you ever want to sell your tokens for the bounty campaigns than you should see as soon as the token hits the exchange or else you might need to hold the token until the price recovers back from the dump.

Holding potential utility tokens would be a better suggestion as it would surely have a price hike ahead depending on the product behind it. Bounty campaigns have never been a easy task these years. It is not the early phrase where each of the bounty succeeded.

I was really planning on holding all of my bounty rewards but fortunately, I got to sell about 30 percent of my stocks and earn money on it. During the recession after the spike on 2017, I held my coins hoping that the spike may come back, unfortunately until now a lot of my coins are still worthless.

First you need to find a legit bounty campaign which are not exists too often compared to number of bounties were created everyday.But yeah you are right some coin has the capability of giving you profits if bull run begins but has risk of losing everything if it doesn't happen so you need to reduce the risk of losing the rewards by converting tokens into other altcoins.

Is it really worth all those hassle to collect those coins and hope that one day the price will rise? You are just wasting your time behind all these. You could be doing better if you invest your time somewhere else doing something more productive.
Imagine spending a lot of time behind a bounty program, but the project ends up being dead or abandoned? Or the value of the tokens are so low that it won't even cover the price of a cup of coffee? Now imagine doing something more productive (like selling your skills) and getting some money that won't lose its value and is accepted everywhere.

Its a lie that if bitcoin reach 30k bounty hunting won't be profitable like 2017 because if bitcoin hit 30k Ethereum will be in four figures, this means new projects will be in profits since most are tokens and running on ERC20 smart contract

Not all bounty tokens are worth selling because they can easily moon in near future, you are the one to find the clue why a project will moon in future, Some bounty projects have potential and better use case, I accepting selling half of your reward and keeping the rest just in case they moon and you will be glad you still holding

I preffer to invest on bitcoin only and on top altcoins and not on new projects becasue of scams from past. I don't know how to choose a good project.

That is some positive thoughts! I don’t think history will repeat itself this year. 2017 was on different clime. There is far less confidence in the market now. But, it looks like the confidence is growing and probably, this year would be a good one. But, I doubt if it will be as good as 2017.
I quite agree with holding those potential coins though. 

And also about time wasting, many project cheat on bounty hunters , they don't distribute even as they are still existing. Since last year, just few have distributed and the others scammed hunters with so many excuses. For tokoin too, they brought so many issues to exclude some hunters from ongoing distribution.

indeed most of the bounties are just pointless, even they give you rewards it just the matter of time that the price will be going down after few days on exchange listing, you might be lucky to get the good bounties in the future so keep in mind on that.

And this is the reason why many investors never look into new projects because likely most of them are totally a scam and unable to deliver what the community must have to expect with them. That is, if we are participating bounty we shouldn't have to think that it will be going through smoothly and think that the team should have to deliver what they have promise. Even the rewards have been escrowed already but the problem is there is no market value or even listed to reputed exchanges which are similarly we got nothing but just a dead token only.

First of all there is no point of holding the bounty tokens of scam project which even if the participants wants to sell they cannot do and please understand that the ground reality is completely different than what it is now. Bounty was something new those days and there were worthy projects which paid on time and prospered but most of the recent projects didn't even pay the bounty hunters. I agree there are certain tokens which has greater chances to pump as you have mentioned but not all.

Being a Hero Member in the forum which started from newbie, I have learn a lot about bounty and 2017 was really the best year for all the bounty hunters. 
After 2017 was the suffering since most bounty are not really paying or if they pay we will only get a small chunk of its ICO price since it will be dump when traded in exchange, and the sad part is that investors blame it all to the bounty hunters even if they own more coins they get from bonuses given by the team.

Now its really challenging to be part of the bounty but we have the belief that eventually the market will recover so choosing the right one and knowing how to hold strong would be the key to have a success at the right time.

Congratulation on finding projects that you have promoted, not many projects coming from ICO are good I experienced not getting my rewards, token turn out to be a shitcoins with no value at all, there are to many wasted effort on my part, ICO is like a gambling today you never know how will it turn out.

There are still some unique project that exist right there, Last year I joined a bounty called MESG. I am not encouraging you to buy it, but check it I guess it has a bright future. I sold all my tokens last year but I am buying back again this year. If you buy please do your own research first. My advice to the hunters dont join many bounties just a few good ones, do a background check to minimized scam.

if you understand the project then it doesn't hurt because you know the potential of project in the future, unfortunately 100:3 or even smaller, most projects will eventually die and worthless, you can see it from the beginning of the appearance of the ico until now. but thank you for giving a hint, I know a little about gowithmi and it seems like it's really good

I think it should be "selling off as it soars in price and then rebuying when price crashes" Although you should only do this with nice projects that have use-case, and not some piece of shitcoins.

OP, did you mention Tokoin as a nice project to hold into? Well, I dont think so!

ROFLMAO... It can't get any worse than this. So you want the bounty hunters to do all these bounties, until they eventually gets paid? What if they fail to get any rewards even after doing 10 or 15 different bounties? Take my advice. Do something useful during this time, rather than chasing these bounties which never pay. There are a lot of things that the new users can do apart from bounties. The only thing is that they should be having the patience to learn new things, which can be applied later on the cryptocurrency market.

It is unfortunate indeed the past few years the ICO project was not very promising as you said that most tokens turn into shitcoins and that is reality. but I also do not close my eyes that as the OP said, there are still ICO projects that are still well managed and successful. it really depends on the dev and the team that manages it whether they really want to make a profit for a moment or really want to develop. I believe there is hope in the future with the development of ICO.

Bounties still pays and I've earned from several projects since 2018, many don't know how to do good research on projects before promoting them that's why they land in trouble after the bounty ends, the two most active ways to earn in crypto is bounties and trading

Good idea, but generally it is more profitable for Bounty hunters to sell their Bounty tokens right after listing on Exchanges as there is a huge probability the price will decrease significantly in the future if it is not a top project.

Even we can't see a bounty project that was like in the year 2017 there's a good project out there that will also bring an income to us. But, based on what I see there are more scam and failed projects than good projects. Most of the ICO last year 2019 and 2018 have more cases of scam that's why it's hard to invest now and actually, it's hard to regain the trust of the investors especially if he/she got scam multiple times. So far, it's better to invest in all old projects than wasting your time and money in investing in a new project which has no guarantee that will succeed.

The idea of selling all your bounty tokens and buying top coins is not bad at all but I believe that new coins will have higher profits than top coins, if you are too scared of missing out then mix them up

Current Btc price is a hint to be like since 2017 market. We don't expect such things can possibility to happen repeatedly. No possibility to return in 2017. I agree bounty hunters should be concern to holding only promising projects. Tokoin,Temtum these are future if now you can picked ur invest here. Gowithmi i never heard regarding this project. SERO is reliable investment.               

Here, of course, it happens in different ways, but in almost all cases if holding tokens received from the bounty companies for a very long time, these tokens depreciate, of course there are exceptions, but this is very rare, so here each decides when to sell his tokens received from bounty companies.

you are being deluded to think 2017 era will come again in 2020 for bounty hunters. Even if there are bull runs, I do not think people will ever invest the way they have invested on ICO in 2017, This issue of scam has sabotage everything. Nobody going to lose his/her hard earn money to one hungry individual. I understand that it is better to let go many shitcoin but have you realized many of the tokens the hunters are being paid are either dead or not even listed. I have more than 70 tokens on MEW. Only one was recently listed with a massive dump. The rest have either turn to scam or dead.

If you have some free tokens that has value when you convert into btc then do it now. Btc and other major coins are continously soaring high now. The last bull run shows a magnificent year that increase all market even altcoin price but of course other people already learned from that mistake and will not buy any sort of new altcoins now so better to all in on those projects that are way more useful and have some big markets. These projects are the most that cna succeed and repeat the bull run price again or surpass those price even more.

When you feel difficult to find the project to invest or find earning from the project, you need to take a rest for a while and don't force yourself to keep searching. If you still trying to search, maybe you will not find the project because you will miss some important information to get the project. If you can take a rest for a while, you can use your time to leave the project for a while, so when you come back to the crypto world, you can find the project so that it will help you to participate with the right project.

Yes some of the projects you mentioned above are good projects, and it is It should be for Bounty participants to hold tokens obtained from the Campaign. But there is one more project that has just finished during their Campaign, Tachyon Network. I am sure this project will grow well. So I suggest Bounty participants who join their Campaign to hold their tokens.

I think I personally find it difficult to invest In altcoins
Throughout my crypto currency lifespan, I have not for once bought an altcoins, and I have learnt to sell my bounty rewards at the peak for btc.

Don’t be offended but for me, Bitcoin is my only investment today
Others are Shitcoins

After Yobit I was about to take time from bounty campaign because it's hard to find a good bounty campaign, I'm lucky to have found my current campaign Relictum pro and i find the project unique and with good potential in the market and besides it's a short campaign, hoping that I made the right decision.

Yobit give us most benefit with higher payment in daily day and have different method payment with other signature or bounty campaign although payment with bitcoin because almost payment in weekly, we need waiting for when Yobit re open their campaign again with higher payment every day.

There might actually be thousands of bounty campaigns onto various platforms and only selective from those bounties make us earn a good return. The above project which you mentioned gave us good returns but choosing those projects was not an easy task at the initial stage.

We need to dig the background of the project in order to predict the future for the project. Also most of the bounty campaigns seems trustworthy with higher returns but these may end up being a scam projects. Scam projects have ruined the bounty hunters and they hard efforts are rolled without pay which has made them have least faith in any of the recently launched bounty campaign.

I disagree, 2018 have many good project and successful project that launch more scam project only start in tha last quater of 2018 to 2019 and continues happening until now.
Even they continue to change the name from ICO  STO IEO its never change that  more of them is scam and fraud.
Hopefully this 2020 there are something new  that will came that more secured compare what ICO offered.

2017 bunties are one of the best moment of hunters here in this forum but when bear market came many projects who conducted ICO on that year was bankrupt and runaway even they collected millions of dollars what they promised is all lies thats why many new bounties in 2018 also turned scam and many hunters are always the victim from this cannot even earn a penny even in a 5 month campaign very unfortunate but this year bitcoin once again show its power to regain and bring back the hope in crypto and I really hope that this year will also a good year for all of us who are working in our free time just to earn some crypto. 

I'm not sure that new alternative coins will experience success like 2017 because, in 2019, the price of Bitcoin has increased, but the condition of alternative coins there are still many projects that fail to get funds.

The reason for the price of alternative coins in 2017 experienced a massive increase because the whales experienced FOMO.

I think holding bounty rewards for too long is not a good idea because most of the projects who offered bounty campaigns were traded in profits for a short period of time and eventually they dropped down in price (dumped I mean by that). So I think holding bounty coins or tokens for too much long is not a good idea because prices move frequently and better thing to do with bounty reward is just trade them fearlessly (sell high buy low) and increase your account balance and buy blue chip cryptos from that..

In 2017 we made a lot of money through bonus campaigns but currently I'm not sure that the hunt for bonuses brings good income because the ICO projects are very attractive and not as much as in 2017. There are too  Low quality projects and very low bonus amount for all hunters.  I am finding it hard to hunt the bonuses for all of us.

There are indeed lots of projects that are being developed even if the market is not in good condition and there are still some projects are wanting to scam other people. In a situation like this, it is hard to find a good bounty project but I can say that there are still promising projects that are being developed and they have also a great platform but the problem is that there are less investors want to support every project because of the condition of the market.
There is nothing we can do but to wait because selling it in a lower price is not helping and it is also a loss to you, why just we wait and have patience so that there is a possibility that you can earn bigger if that token you are holding pumps. Do not lose hope, the market is in a recovery state maybe the token you are holding might pump soon. Just keep on supporting projects that are coming and keep on joining them, support them. Avoid scam projects by knowing every single information about them so you don't have any fear of losing time and effort supporting that one.

Some are never sold because they never get listed or get listed on shitty exchanges with no volume.
This will never change if hunters will accept shitcoins or promises of shitcoins instead of valuable tokens.

Tell those cheap devs that if they want their project to be advertised they need to pay some real money.

I appreciate your advice, If I had sMerits, I would give you for this helpful thread. Bounty hunters should come out from dumping. Basically, when I need money I go to seel my bounty tokens. But I don't sell all of them, rather I sell 60-70% of total tokens and the rest of them I intend to hold for a certain time. I am not sure time like 2017 ever will come for bounty hunters or not, but I think everyone should buy good altcoins besides the Bitcoin.

Its good that you do have those coins yet earning them from bounty might or might not able to be paid off.It will vary on the market condition.
Also, i dont see for the same situation to happen on 2020 compare to 2017.There might be some bull run but we cant be sure on what would happen next
on this year if those new projects or not known ones would able to climb up to the ladder or not.For bounty hunting it would really be just like a gamble
yet we know on how bounties become shit on past 2 years, if you can see some light then its your own perception but not mine.
Just stick and be aware on risk from time to time on dealing with bounties yet theres no always an assurance.

I don't think that we will get good bounty projects like 2017 but it is conceivable that this year will go better from previous two years. However, I agree with you that good projects can give us better opportunity in future. I hope hunter's must show more patience & they will not sell any tokens at nominal prices.

In 2020, Maybe it's better for me to hold some BTC than some ICO's tokens project. It's more worthy. I don't think that holding some tokens will make a good profit for investors since there is a little chance for the ico's tokens price will be rise in the future. It won't guaranteed you. 2020's bounties is really different with the 2017 ones.

Better to know that position and we all know that Bitcoin is certainly be growing this time as halving could be done sooner. Besides, we are moving into $12k and if we are buying this when the price at even $9k, there is already huge gain that has been in our investment.

ICO's could still be a look and consider if we find it really promising and already been listed to reputable exchanges coz who knows that 2020 will also push a new listed project to accompany by a soaring market. Yes, we can't assure of it but we can't just disclose that there are still a few projects out there that can be trusted.

If there is a bull run, the hype is high so this project that are in listed in IEO has a bigger chance of success but I don't know if ICO could still rise at this point after being criticize due to its high failure rate, of course due to most ICO are scam. But anyway, it could be a different story once we already are in the bull market, so that remains to be seen, let's just watch and hopefully we will enjoy.

The decision to hold or immediately sell rewards from the bounty depends on the strength of the project itself.  if the project is really good and has the potential to grow, then please try to hold, if not then sell it.  Remember, every decision has a risk, whatever the outcome is loss or profit, you must respect that.  do not regret if the price of the pump in the future will ruin your mood, so be thankful.  Understand that being a bounty hunter requires accuracy and patience.

I personally play bounty only for side jobs not to be my profession, I realize that from the beginning playing bounty that this bounty cannot be relied on for long term

It's a coin to coin basis, there are coins that are meant to dump and there are coins that are meant to hodl and wait, so it is very important that we follow the development of the coin that we are investing, so we can decide if we can dump it or hodl it, bounty hunters deserve profit for their hard work.

Mostly bounty coins will big dump after added in exchanges though almost 90% hunters sold in the early stage who's care about pump and dump in the future. Investors will not interested to sell at any time, they will try to sell good price i mean more than ico price is their expected. Personally i hold those coin's which possibly to list in big exchanges.           

Not all current ICO projects are bad. I can also say that now there are even more promising projects than before. Now bounty hunters earn much less than before, but ICO fraudulent projects have become much smaller. In the future, I expect an increase in the price of our altcoins. Therefore, if you do not sell our received tokens now, you can get a good profit. This year, the patience of those who store tokens earned in bounty ICO campaigns will be rewarded.

I don't think its wise to hold your tokens from bounties because many did this in past and they get crushed, either project later turned scam or there are no more volumes on exchanges, either ways it all comes down to how good the bounty project you want to keep is

the part that I marked only applies to good projects, and now it's quite difficult to find. however, it can be found on the top altcoin. however, not all ICOs are bad now, but most are like that. in fact, if you expect a project that can follow ICO's success in 2017, it's IEO. it's just that currently, projects that do IEO on popular markets are lacking, however, I think as a bounty hunter, we need to do research on projects that do IEO on potential markets.

Yes, what you mentioned is right, it is not a good idea to hold the altcoin which we get from the bounties, most of the company getting into a scam. Companies are raising funds, but failing to list them in the exchanges, so once after listing on the exchange, it is good to sell them in the market.

You can never know if a project is good or not, if the token price will go up 1000x or go down to the floor. That's why I hold everything and I sell if is going up.
You can dump coins like Nano (XRB) for few tens of cents and then go up to tens of dollars. You can never know.

I don't know why seems since starting this year i saw plenty of bounty program available and most of them has been successfully and some people says this year could be bounty year which mean bounty program growing rapidly but to called this situations similar such as on 2017 when almost everybody can able to get decent amount of money from bounty i think it's too early if we compare between this year and 2017

Yes, no one really recommends saving tokens from bounties, because it is very risky for the bounty hunter, there are also tokens from bounties that are experiencing good development, like today's Unibright tokens that have experienced good price increases in the market and its volume are also very much.

although its to early to say current condition repeat 2017 moment, atleast market psychology and sentiment starting recovery.moreover after we see bitcoin and other cryptocurrency price growing in few weeks ago. people now believed this is the good start for cryptocurrency future. hopefully after halving we will see good new projects and have bounty campaigns for us to earn money.almost two years we didn't see any qualified projects in market and influence to our income.

a few years ago before 2017 storing tokens from the bounty campaign results in the wallet might still be safe and still be able to get a lot of profit because many tokens can have high prices, but for this year many tokens are scam and no investors are interested anymore with project development because investors only want to need projects that can generate a lot of profit and can be used by many people.

Thanks mate good advice and nice words, I pray May this year again give us the joy through bull run as we have seen in 2017. I am sure the next Bull run will happen in this year.

Yes, I hope that this year's bullrun can really occur next, although it will not be exactly the same as what happened in 2017, but we all hope that the next bullrun can happen this year.

I say that in the current year the bounty program cannot be sure to grow because there are still many poryek that fail and the hunters are not paid, which means there are still a handful of people who take advantage of situations like this.
But if you continue to look for bounty programs without stopping then I think this will work because not all projects can fail, of course we have to look carefully.

This year I believe also that year of altcoins I have no money to buy popular coins like bitcoin and ether to hold. But I have some coins I got in bounty hope to them grow up because its been a year until now no price. Hope the developer see there projects and they do good to it so that the price of there coins goes up also.

And the answer to that are top altcoins, they offer high trusts and better use cases but few new projects are very good that many investors are rushing to buy them e.g Tezos, its better to hunt for bounty projects because of its use case not for profit anymore

Unfortunately, holding the tokens from the bounty campaigns for a long time can be very risky. Many bounty token prices have turned into worthless due to the lack of volume or the project's failure, in the past year. But also, very high profits too were made from some successful bounty campaigns. So if you plan to hold any bounty tokens in the long term, i suggest you do a good research on this token and the project and only hold the bounty tokens which you believe to have quite good potential.

Never try to hold tokens from bounty during this period, you should sell it as soon as possible because its price will definitely collapse after being listed at the exchange. In 2018 and 2019 I saw hundreds of altcoins like that. Its price has dropped hundreds of times after being listed in the exchange, you will get nothing if you try to hold and wait for it.

For me bounties now are worthless, there are no new promising ICOs that has new ideas full of real estate, flying cars, gaming, adult content, cannabis ashitty exchange, social media and other useless utility tokens, not like in 2017 where there are fresh ideas and promising projects that helps and there are little risk of investing. But keep finding a good and new idea ICO because it may be worth a lot in the future and support it until the end.

It is amazing how many people now say that in 2020 there will be a repetition of the 2017 scenario. But nothing happened. Bitcoin grew by several points and pulled along the rest of the market.
This has happened more than once. Keeping integrity makes sense only those coins that have a large capitalization in the market and are placed on a really large number of good exchanges.
All other coins can be sold without remorse.

Let me share my experience, well, 2017-1st quarter of 2018 is the best season for bounty and actually even in the market, well, I did join to INS ecosystem now INSOLAR, it is a good project with great vision since their project aims to use their token for real life or daily needs which is groceries, however because of the market from its peak it went down to cents. I did held for more than a year however what happened, from holding 3k$ worth of tokens it went down to $300 which was a great loss, so for me, if I will be receiving bounties better to hold for awhile but not that long

It's true, I have experienced this before and its price do not meet my expected price in the long run.

Most of the time it is better to exchange your bounty rewards to eth or btc then find a better altcoin to hold or maybe stay on eth or btc. Holding your bounty rewards is not profitable all the time, finding a better crypto to invest for this coming bull run would be better.

I don't really expect that this year's bounty project will be as good as 2017. Because if I hope too much, I will be disappointed. Can be paid is enough. Because I often also experience projects that fail and tokens are only stored in my wallet without being able to sell. But I still keep a little bit of bitcoin and coins that have no price on the exchange. I do not know whether later coins will be worth.
 

I tried doing this when I'm still doing bounty hunting and I felt regret and disappointment because I hugged my tokens and choose to hold it hoping that they will increase in the future. I hate myself at that time and I mustn't hold my tokens that I got for bounty. I wish that I sold them all as they are listed on the exchanges.

There is nothing wrong being optimistic but this will not happen anymore ;).

You're feeling will remain a feeling right now :) it will not happen trust me. Don't be too optimistic with bounty campaigns.

Maybe it happened because because good hopes will always be reached at the right time, the bounty has suffered a lot of bad things over the last few years, but I'm sure there will be many successful projects this year, so the promotion of the bounty will follow.
I also hold a lot of shitcoin that does not have a price whether this will have a price or not I do not know because the developer was not active enough in managing it.

thank you for your advice, but I think that all the projects have been completed. I think the advice that Bounty Hunter needs is a good new project currently underway. if there is, I think it will be more helpful, because the bounty hunter currently also does not have enough capital to buy these tokens for long-term investment purposes.

Actually what you recommend is good too, but in my opinion it's the principle of ordinary people, not the principle of the leading traders who want to profit a lot from these trading activities, it is valid if we choose to buy and wait. but it's really very boring in my opinion

Hold tokens from bounty is a wrong decision. I have been through it and I am disappointed with it, the price has dropped hundreds of times since I received it. It is best to sell them as soon as possible and buy the best altcoins in this market to hold, it will be a lot safer.

Yes, but most of the prizes are not good to hold now, you'd better sell it right away than wait for your symbol to be useless.
moments like the end of 2017 will be rarely found, so don't expect your symbol to pump and have a high value at any time, unless you are prepared to risk losing your tokens.

It is true that for the time being, the quality of new projects and their performance in the market are very disappointing, but not all projects are bad, a small number of new projects deserve your attention. It all goes back to how precisely someone evaluates a project. If you keep a trash token, it means your ability to judge a project is still inadequate.

If you are not good at analyzing the fundamentals of a project for a long period of selling it immediately is a good step and indeed the average bounty hunter will dump tokens / coins if they feel fair enough with their work. I personally also hold the longest for only about 2 months, because indeed what we get later is not in accordance with the expectations or actual facts. but there are some of my friends they are very good at analyzing projects for the long term, from the results of the bounty he has earned a lot of money.

Bounty hunting today is too far profitable compared to 2017. This is the reason why most of the bounty hunters prefer to sell right away their tokens once listed in the exchange even if the price is not worth it. I agree that these tokens are good only for short term holding but if you want them for long term holding, you need to have a good technical analysis. Or we can do it this way, sell half of your tokens and then the other half would be good for long term holding.

This is true. Sometimes it is better to sell some coins especially if you see the coins is already declining. Because there are a lot of coins which are really going down hard and you might end up holding worthless coins.

This is the best move for every hunter. Just sell those coins while it still has value. More time of holding can only put it down as price tend to decrease over time. Rarely to see altcoins or new projects get higher price as time pass by.


Deserve attention? Can you at least give example of these new projects that are worth our attention and even holding of these coins of them? I doubt there are working new projects that still holding its ICO price. Mostly are below already.

Tokoin project is great and indeed worthy to hold also the sero and temtum but Im not sure whether Gowithmi has certain potential to be like those youve mentioned. Actually the best is to sell of tokens from bounty since most altcoin projects tend to go down after got listed on some exchange. If youre hunter youll gonna be wise to see that and buy some btc or eth rather holding it then rot later on with very low compensation for your work.

I don't think what happened in 2017 could happen again where even dead and shitcoins are pumped, people learned their lesson very well, they know what to do and what to avoid and the best way to do right now is to avoid this shit and dead coin with no actual usage and no developers to develop the project, we are over with that.

Holding bounty token for long term is not a good idea,
The situation we have last 2017 won't happen again this next bull run, because it is rare to see a good bounty project that will hold their token's value in the long run.
The common thing we can see now is a project that is only good for short term then die after several months in the market due to lack of its development.

Yes, and this is usually done by those who often monitor market conditions and market conditions, so they can make the right steps when the price of coins has begun to fall, but for now there are also some good coins for us to store and buy at prices that are cheap.

good point, many new projects could not exist for long term after they finished launched ICO or IEO. most of projects has no function at all in cryptocurrency ecosystem. so they just build short projects only. in 2017 almost all projects could success because euphoria in cryptocurrency very high. at that moment they will earn much money by holding crypto assets. but this condition could not happen again now. investors very selective investing their money in projects.

I think the golden age in the world of ciptro is 2017 years. Many people I know have made a lot of profit during this year. For many hunters, this year has been a happy time.The way this season started, I think the market could be better this year.

Yes, you are right when the prices are low it is very good to grab those low valued coins, people who understand the market condition will always buy them when they are low, still, there are some good potential coins which those coin prices will increase when the market conditions are really matured.

Yes, it is only about a market condition that is improving in 2017, so that many people can get multiple benefits at that time, and for now it is also very possible to be repeated even though it will not be exactly the same as in 2017.

Yes they have a good bounties that are worth to hold the rewards we receive from them.
But the question is how long we hold the altcoins like that, As of now they are falling down the price even do in a first bounty distribution of rewards we all witness that it was dump so much and some of them became a shitcoins. But we always participate a bounty that we are not sure it is potential bounty or not.

We hope so in this year have some good bounties comes up.

New bounty projects can't trusted, I've seen where by the team dumped on exchanges themselves, holding on these tokens will make you lose your reward totally compared to if you dump for bitcoin or  Ethereum, think twice

Things can be sorted out sometimes and even the real stories that most bounties are just scam but many members tried to risk and participate.
If we look in the forum, still a lot of members around wearing signature from bounty and just like you do. May it looks that bounty programs are vanishing but we can't deny that many companies will also try to give their shot by creating this and even participated as well for they are hoping that it could help and generate market profit once done.
For sometimes, some BM gives some awareness and that is "take the risk by your own diligence". It means that even them, they run projects that they are not sure if this will succeed or fail.

Yes, at the moment there are many bounty projects that we cannot trust, because the development team is not serious, but lately I see three bounty projects that are worthy of our participation, because the three project teams are very active in carrying out their projects.

The bounty can still be trusted but that depends on how you can choose it. So many bounty hunters are still getting paid by the trusted project and in this case, i didn't mean about the bitcoin campaign but some bounty campaigns are still paying the participant with the decent amount of money.

This is not really they can't trusted but the fact that they are just new projects also an key on why it is very hard for us to trust. It is just like meeting an stranger or someone and you will be able to trust them so fast, it is not like that as like with the bounties. Yes the exchanges may dumped so fast compared to the ethereum and ripples or xrp that is so slow on dumping it's value.

For the new users, there are very few options available to earn some cryptocurrency, apart from bounty campaigns. There are a few signature campaigns that make the payment in Bitcoin, but most of them are unavailable for the lower ranks. Anyway, too few spots are available with them and for every open slot, you may find hundreds of applications.

in my opinion you are wrong, yes correct if we must not expect if bounty income is the same as in 2017, but in my opinion there are still a number of bounties that provide income for bounty hunter, even though the income earned is very small, but it is caused due to bad market conditions and if we continue to hold and wait until the market increases again, then I'm sure we will definitely get a big profit if the project from the bounty has progress, so the most important thing if we participate in the bounty is that the project of the bounty is good and has progress.

Im new here but i think im in good situation to join bounty. Nice to see all bounty. Hope me more careful for join.

Last year best reward campaign was MB8COIN and Thinkcoin, both campaign paid the highest payment to bounty hunters over 15 USD. TEMTUM project is good but they didn't paid enough as promised. Nothing will happen as like 2017 but could same pump for good coin.

Some bounty hunters will consider your suggestion and some will not, it depends on the bounty hunters' acceptance of new campaigns if they want to participate or they had enough of joining useless bounty campaign, I have bounties that I have not yet get paid after a year and some tokens that sitting in my wallet for over a year.

Just watch some thread that already posted by some members here and you will see a bunch of experience that happened on those people. The situation doesn't matter a lot even in the bullish trend and the bounty cannot become profitable caused by the internal factor. Just be more careful with any bounties that offered multi million dollars reward.

For several days you will notice that the bounty that we have been working on for many days and the coins we have got in our wallet but after listing exchanges their value is getting very low ,So there is not a good amount earnigs . Some people are taking coins for profit and some people are holding coins for good profit . In my opinion the coin earning from bounty will more profitable by selling and then buy some good coin according to the coinmarketcap listed.

In a way you are right. But remember that the days of bounty can never be like the old days of bounty sometimes in 2017,2018. A lot of projects now hosting bounties are shits. They distribute shit tokens and valueless to hunters. Some tokens will never pump even if you give them years to develop
They are good as dead. I slightly agree that hunters might still experience good days of bounty. Hence its advisable to hold some bits of your bounty rewards. Dont be in a haste to sell all off. Just an advice.

I agree. I was one of those bounty hunters before and 2017 is really a great year for crypto community where you'll profit in every crypto you'll invest. Unfortunately because of ICO projects after that where scam was rampant, investors doesn't really trust newly built projects, afraid of getting scammed too.

I guess it is much better for bounty hunters to learn trading nowadays to not waste time and effort.

however, the project he mentioned was not comparable to the project that was spread so far. however, as a bounty hunter, I have pretty much passed the opportunity and the projects I support sometimes don't match reality. however, as a bounty hunter, that is a risk that needs to be paid. until now I still believe that there will be a good project going forward.

Whatever the situation is when you want to join in the bounty, then you must first make a research, and I think when there are some good bounties that are worthy of you to follow, because the good or bad situation is seen after we live it with full research.

Yes that was a good tip for everyone of us in which we should do first a research about what is the project or the bounty is all about in order to have more knowledge about what is the project all about. This probably one of the common mistakes of the bounty hunters they will just see that they are already capable on joining bounty campaign but didn't do research and even reading the whitepaper.

2017 era may or may not come again. But the most important thing is thst one knows what he's doing in crypto. Holding some coins might be disastrous and holding just a little from a project might fetch one money. My own vision for this year is to be focus and determined.

Well, it is a wise and practical way of obtaining top ranked coins even if you cannot somehow afford buying a while part of that coin if you are going to use the money you can obtain from doing bounty related works which you have hold for a long time way back 2017 where good and promising as well as big successful project do exist. Now that we are already facing towards a positive direction of cryptocurrencies price movement, it would really be best if you find some of the coins you have been holding for a while that you think are not worthy anymore to sell them to at least obtain a handy of amount to afford investin or engaging into top ranked cryptocurrencies within the market to see better opportunities.

In fact, there will be no advice for everyone. Each person will have a different option who will sell all the rewards and transfer them to Fiat money, because bounty for them is just work and they are not investors.

You and everyone are free to sell all your token or coin on the exchange without restrictions. But you might not get the right price as when selling tokens because the asking price on the exchange is lower.

But who cares, many people will sell it at the same time so the price dump, there are only a few developers who care about the price so they wont let the bounty hunter sell all their products at the same time by distributing tokens or coins gradually.

I think that it is not necessary to reject the fact that some Bounty Hunters use their activities for more profitable investments.  If They participated in the Bounty of a really promising project company, then such coins can be left for long-term storage, and can also be used to create start-up capital for trading or to invest in higher-rated cryptocurrencies.  Bounty Hunters do not always withdraw funds from the cryptocurrency market in fiat currencies.

Bounty tokens will be hold or not it’s depend. Because promising coins capable to good return after in the long term hold. In bad projects you don’t expect profit through of hold. Now mostly coins dumped in the at first day of exchange listing. I think your recommend will help if follow of bounty hunters. Just all of the projects teams changing their mind to protect coins from early dropped. They're not paid in one time.           

For me, as far as bounty is concerned, u loose some, while u gain some whether the year is good or bad, sell or hold.

Totally agree. I think that if you really want to earn in crypto nowadays, you have to wait and be patient with your coins. The 2017 bull run was also the reason why so many scams have emerged, thus people have been watchful because of that. Yes the market could recover, but it will be a slow recovery.

true, I myself am the result of the bounty often I sell directly because if it is stored too long the price will sometimes drop far from the initial price when entering the market

I am done holding altcoins from ICO's.
I have the same thought of "what value will it have in the future".
Look at it now. From $1000 value of just of my alts from an ICO to a freaking $100.
Another is almost $800 value and then now at $8.

Told myself, once there is profit I will sell it. I won't be in love with those types anymore. Sooner or later all the whale investors will do the same so you better make it first before they do so.

That is the common mistake of those people who hold bounty tokens for the long term.
Not all recent bounty projects can take to hold their value for a few months or years.

That is why it is better to exchange it right away to a better altcoin in the market which is probably can hold its value for a long time. This is what I realized when almost my bounty tokens are decreasing their value over time.

You might be right about 2020 bringing back bull season like in 2017, many bounty hunters and investors are waiting for that to happen again, many of them didn't capitalize for different reasons, some for lack of experience, they probably were waiting for the price to go higher.

Yes, the market will continue to recover even in the long run, so be patient and wait for the coins we already have now is a good choice, as long as the coins are really well developed by the team, because so many coins have been spared from the care of his own team that results in no value in the market.

We don't know whether we are in a bull run or the market correction, but as of now, the price of Bitcoin is surge which makes other altcoins to increase their prices. When we compared with the previous year, now the market is in good shape which has higher to increase the prices.

The bounty at this time is clearly much different from the situation in 2017 because in that year almost all bounties will succeed and get xx when they are on an exchange that is far different from the current number of bounties.
for me personally do not expect too high for bounty work because only disappointment will come.

What exactly do you mean? I am confused what to say, because in the case of a bounty when it has been paid, then it is fully our right to arrange everything, both to sell or to hold it for a while.

Agreed. Most of the ICO projects are really turning into something not useful or most of them just die off with just little short period of time of existence. But still there some Projects conducted bounties I will survive and would try compete with other existing platforms but the chances of getting much attentions are very low. It's better to have them around and fully working rather than those tokens who have been around from years but never progress or improve at all.

For the time being it is better to follow several projects that can be profitable in the short term, rather than stick to the previous ICO projects, because now the development of the previous ICO project is no longer running, so it will spend a lot of time if we continue to care about tokens old ones.

Most bounty hunters are only involved in advertising projects whose main purpose is to earn rewards and to sell them to make money . They are not like the people who have money to invest in the projects you have listed above because they know that if you invest without big capital, it is very likely to lose money because they have no experience in this. The only thing they can do is sell them on exchanges

I hold a lot of tokens from the bounty and until now it is very disappointing because there is no price even though in 2017 it is still very valuable, so I think when I get it from the bounty it would be good to sell directly if there is a market

Thanks for your advice, holding bounty tokens is a good idea this year. The rate at which cryptocurrencies are rising is a good sign.

the problem is that they arent knowledegable enough to do a research  . what will they get when reading a whitepaper if they dont know its contents , that is why they just join randomly as long as they see that the requirements to get accepted is easy  .

there are also good bounties that are strict , they have a strict manager , strict rules and so on and many hunters arent qualified with it . the only advantage is that the success rate of this campaigns are slightly higher than the low quality ones

Sometimes there are a possibility that they could find the most rewarding one by just blindly picking the project. I mean, I would say that it's okay to actually do that if the tasks are not that complicated and wasting your time, it's better to take any chance you can find.

The price is good, but the bounty itself sucks ass.

that's the problem. when bounty hunters do not want to develop and try to grow their skills to become better then it will be difficult for them to be able to survive here. maybe the easiest is the social media bounty and it's also not so strict. but for the signature campaign, I think all the managers have now started to tighten the rules for all participants. especially now that there aren't many bounty projects that are handled by the bounty manager.

We seriously need to be careful at this point. See, 2017 came with a surprise truly and no one was able to predict the exact thing that happened. Now predicting that 2020 wil be the same as 2017 might bring a lot of downturns. The market truly is improving. Some ascribed it to bitcoin halving and some other updates, but what if those updates come and go, what will remain?

Making sure a project is good or not as Bounty Hunters is a must-do, where all the thought and time devoted will not be wasted. How would you feel if the project was not completed and the project was completed? What can be done? it was something that continued to balk to the Bounty Hunter.
For now the bounty is still in a difficult time, so don't need to hope with that, but keep thinking positive it will turn into sweet results

The prices have remained stagnant for almost 7-8 months now, after a sharp bull run from April 2019 to the next 4-5 months. The market is showing signs of fatigue, as evident from the low volumes. If the prices don't rally after the block reward halving (81 days from now), then we can expect a bloodbath in the market. And if that happens, then the alts are going to get more affected when compared to Bitcoin.

What do you mean by stagnant? It's literally blowing up right now compared to last month. Even though it's not that big compared to 2017 but at least cryptos are making progress actually.

I don't know what is the "criteria" of low volumes based on urs but it's definitely not.

In terms of bitcoin transaction it was increasing and the volume is still outstanding in exchanges.
per https://coinmarketcap.com/, the total trading volume of bitcoin is over $43 billion and it's not included those exchanges who are not listed in CMC.

The only thing left for bounty hunters to cling on is the positive mindset from every projects they promote, if you keep thinking that many bounties aren't paying or scam you will end up regretting when you later noticed that some hunters earn big from bounties you once neglected, it won't hurt to try

Sometimes that's the always a reason on why have so many project are not successful from the project running. Because most of them are not reach the softcap or hardcap they mention or else no one invested the project. But there some reason also are so many scam project that have using same platform to scam. But for now Ill think we are now aware from that and need to be careful always that kind of project or bounty campaign.

Indeed. The reason why most projects did not reach the softcap and the hardcap because they don't know how to run a project and to developed a good project, that is why they end up unsuccessful and didn't earn any good profit. Other peojects are scam just to steal money from investors that makes a huge impact in the new projects nowadays because most investors lost their trust.

To try to promote the bounty project does not hurt, but every hunter must also know about the project they are promoting, and this can be known by making some analysis and research on the project they will promote, because that time is very valuable for a hunter.

Good bounties happen once in a blue moon nowadays. So you are saying the bounty hunters to keep on participating these campaigns, hoping that eventually one of them may give good rewards. I quit doing bounties almost two years back, because I didn't wanted to go on like that. Anyone with self respect would agree what I said.

Not all of the projects are worth holding on,
You should also know it just because some of the old projects have been waking up or getting attentions and raising up doesn't mean that all of them would do the same.
And I don't really think that we could see those great years again because the initial offerings have been polluted by scammers.

How are you really sure that the same thing that happened with those tokens in 2017 will be repeating itself this 2020? Most people might be selling their tokens because they now believe that most of the projects in the cryptocurrency space these days are total waste of their time, that’s why you should really be careful. I have seen projects that everyone thought are going to be successful and at the end they still showed up worthless.

So, it’s best that you got and hold what you got than to keep those tokens and at the end you will be disappointed and all your days of hard work gone just like that. But like some would say, cryptocurrency is mainly about risk. So if you can take that risk, there is nothing wrong with it.

Of course this year will not be like 2017. I think it is obvious. But I agree with the creator of the topic. I also hold some opinions, because they are very good and if 2017 comes, there will again be many more investments, then the projects will expand. Then who knows, maybe one of my coins will take third place in the top)

Do you think the investment trend that occurred in 2017 will be repeated? understand the current situation is completely different. You can see how new projects have difficulty getting investment. This market is growing with assets that are already developing and running in the market. New projects now have no place to compete. if there are successful, many of them can not survive. and that of course disturbs and reduces what a bounty hunter can do.

The market is looking dull right now and I don't know whether we'll have a repeat of what happened in 2017. But even if there is a bull run, the new coins are likely to lag behind. Back in 2017, there were a lot of immature users, who pumped a lot of cash in to new coins. And many of these coins became worthless in 2018-19. Investors learnt their lesson then. They are not going to get trapped again.

Bitcoin's journey is really unpredictable and is always different each year so it's incomparable. As for me, we should expect too much but invest what we could only afford during this market situation. Holding still depends on the coin of your choice and your target profit. You only have to deal with the volatility of the market.

Cryptocurrency should soon rise in price. Therefore, you need to try to invest in large cryptocurrencies such as Ethereum or Bitcoin. But if you have few savings, then take the time and work in campaigns.

let's put our soul in peace the splendor of 2017 will never return, we have to evaluate carefully whether to keep the altcoins earned with the bounties or sell them immediately below cost, at less value, I would say that the right strategy and not sell anything at a lower price than it is bought or of value during the ico but always keep an eye on the market and verify that they are not delisted by all the exchanges or there is some swap or that they become unusable...

Yes, we also know that it is quite difficult to find projects that are truly legit. The most common situation is the unpredictability, a good project may not also provide benefits comparable to bounty hunters, and in fairly difficult market conditions there is often a lot of drama. Our mentality is being tested, so working hard and analyzing alone is not enough if not accompanied by patience. We must be prepared to face all the risks.

The most important thing to join a bounty right now is to pay attention and understand the rules well because most bounty campaigns now provide rewards in several stages, it can be 3-4 months, so understand that. Besides that, prepare yourself mentally to face the drama and the unthinkable before.

well in 2017 many cryptocurrency prices have experienced price increases so many are more focused on trading and investing in ICO because they still have the potential to get a lot of profit, but for this year it is far different from 2017, ICO has been made a place to steal money by way of collecting funds for projects that want to be developed but many fail and end up with a scam.

Investors token is not going to fall in the same trick or ICO, That is why the bounty reward this day is not going to be the same the last time in 2017 when a bounty reward was a gold.

ICO's today is having a hard sell because there only a few investors that are going to be interested in investing in that token and also there are already thousands of these token when the demand of the tokens is divided.

Good old time like 2017 will never happen again in my opinion. Also i dont get many profits last 2 years so the idea of hold cant apply to me. But i agree the project in the early of this year is good. I hope every bounties pay the bounty hunter.

It's not always like, that most times these so-called bounty tokens loses value or sieze to exist, I prefer selling most of the tokens and keeping very little that I can let go of anything goes wrong, this is the best plan ever

Bounty rewards will not be like they used to be in their golden times but now only scamer is happening a lot and crap projects are also popping up everywhere so it will be difficult to distinguish between the correct way of choosing.

Investors now know which one is better for investment, right? ICO doesn't believe in sales anymore, so they now prefer to switch to IEO for investment.

in fact, we are all looking for opportunities that exist today. see projects that have potential and support them. Even though we are aware that the current situation is completely different from 2017 due to the number of scammers, I still feel that there are projects that are worth supporting and continue to pay us. however, I only want to support projects that have potential, like projects that do IEO on probit, or other well-known markets.

Even though now there is an IEO project, but I see many investors are not interested in investing, because there are many scam projects. Now it is very difficult to find projects that can really give us good rewards.

I do agree, what we happened before will never happen again.
Holding bounty tokens will never be a good idea since most of the time their prices will drop deeper as expected. It is better to exchange bounty tokens to top altcoins if we want to make a profit.

Who doesn't want to take the opportunities, all of those bounty hunters are aiming to have some luck supporting good projects some might keep assets and expect to make a much higher value, while others are rushing to sell out after seeing the coin being listed.
Past experiences will be a lesson to learned balancing the situations between holding and selling your assets from bounty jobs that you work with.
Dealing with this industry most of time experience is your number one tool.

why are you sure that it won't come again?I think the crypto market is like a bubble so if the end of 2017 is the explosion then now the bubble is heading to the top point again, isn't everything the same, real estate stocks, experiencing the same thing that distinguishes it is a different duration.
so crypto will rise again even without ico which is very much like in the year 2017.

I have learned a lot in the year 2017. I also reget that year had passed feeling like I just wasted its one time big time opportunity to earn big. But I cannot fully blame and hate myself because that time I do not have enough learning in crypto since I only started at March same year. I need more time to gain knowledge. Another thing that I regret much is that I did not make myself involve in crypto in early days even though it has been introduced to me at 2016

Hold token is not a right choice at the moment. I am pretty sure its price will crash after being listed at the exchange. From 2018 to the present, it is a common condition of new bounty projects. And I don't think bounty will be as good as 2017 again because now investors are a lot smarter after getting a failure to invest in altcoins at that stage.

Withholding altcoin tokens from 2018 I think there is no good why because it does not provide a good return for investors so that many tokens become dead after entering the exchange because only the first volume is there then after time runs more and more in investors stay and these tokens become dead .

The same thing is bounty too, if we can get a token in return for the price, then sell it immediately if it is held, it is useless because the price will decrease further.

I am someone who did bounties for more than two years and I would agree with your post. Whenever I received rewards from these campaigns, I sold the majority and converted them to either BTC or ETH. I kept only a small part of the reward (20%-30%) as tokens. In all the cases, the tokens lost their value in the long term and many of them became worthless.

you mean creating a bounty is now expensive ? i dont think so .  why expensive when they are only paying thier own tokens  , they are still the same but only the measure success have changed alot . what can a bounty hunter do if he dont have other source of income  ? he will still relly , keep applying and hoping that one day he can catch a big fish   .  ive been there before   and before ive been also experiencing a hard time to get a good bounty  but atleast i can still earn little by little  .  patience is still the key  .

I think you are right, all bounty hunters need to stick to doing proper research before joining bounties.
It is not totally an advantage, but it ensures that we get to avoid fraudulent bounties by atleast 85% ratio.

Do a good research, pick couple of bounties, participate duly and earn is better than joining 100 bounties and earning from none.

It's over expected if people think 2017 will be back again in this year. I can agree with that this year is better than last year for investors, traders and bounty hunters. But time like 2017 is not gonna happen at lest in this year (may be it'll occur in upcoming few years). Fake ICO projects destroy not just bounty hunters, it destroyed hole crypto industry's reputation. But the positive thing is many good and promising projects are coming in this year. Which is good news for bounty hunters and investors. Sheng, Gaimin, Geoma DAO, CurioInvest, StiB, bmy.guide, Olportal, BlockBurn etc. are promising project at this moment (totally my opinion). Although still there are many steps to go for proof them self be a good project. And i also think, it'll bring good profit for us if we can hold some coin form those bounty project rewards.

There will be no such success in bounty as it was in 2017. You need to accept that. Now you need to choose projects for participation very efficiently and do not put high hopes on them.

Nothings wrong with prediction or expectation but I'm really sure have good plan is more important. Plan include everything you need to execute decision, you should have risk management with realistic target. Popular coin still become our favorite but we don't know the future, so stop loss needed. I suggest to trade, invest or hold after halving because this event can change our expectation forever.

DYOR is a must and everyone is not even forgetting about that and if we are going back again to 2017 and at that time there was a lot of the scam projects too. As far as i know if in 2017 so many serious developers who are still interested to develop the new product. It doesn't mean if the golden year can't comeback again.

it is true that there will be no more projects like that in that year, because the projects in that year were all of a large success rate and the bounty hunters made a lot of money that year but now it's different again it's hard to find projects that can make a lot of money again

It seems like a time like that will not be repeated where now it is different as before, bounty duulu only a short duration can generate hundreds of dollars or even thousands of dollars but now with a long duration sometimes does not guarantee to be money because most scamer is happening now.

Bounty is now more difficult and also in its development is quite long so we as hunters have to wait until the project is successful.

Project now are affected by pass scamming incidents,  that many investor lose confindence in investing again now because almost all project now are scam and some project not successful because of lack of investor. That's why I think now project that will be successful are only have huge capital to fund thier project to become successful without need ICO or IEO.

This actually true. Bounty is dead since 2017, only 1or2 bounties that really success out there which is really small chance to get one and the rest are scam and not worth bounty. It's better to move on from bounty or find bounty that only pay with bitcoin, ethereums or other good alts and directly paid weekly or monthly. It's more safety than need to wait until the bounty finish which take months or even years.

A lot of people Invested in cryptos in 2017 those projects then reached both Hard cap and Soft cap easily and became successful with help of the bullish sentiment of Bitcoin  however I don't expect a replica of that scenario this year, I would prefers investing in the major cryptos like btc and eth.

2017 altcoin season will not happen again that's why much better to hold tokens or coins that really have potential to increase price because of good project idea and unique product because this will give good profit to us. Don't invest in shitcoins hoping that you will earn huge here because of hype, investor now are smart and they know now what is the coins to buy and not. 

Can you name at least 3 alts from 2019 that has price increase and it was worth holding them? I only see how the prices drops 5-20 times after listing and the project often stops to follow roadmap. It is like after listing team decided to take a half year break and just observe their token/coin price on the market. Only after that decided to continue the project or not.

That is why bounty hunters tend to sell their tokens immediately after getting listed in exchange,

Based on experience, it is not really good to hold bounty tokens, it will never be the right choice. Since most of the time its value will decrease over time. It is better to choose top altcoins in the market or directly convert it to bitcoin.

I disagree with the holding tokens obtained from the bounty, because no matter how good the bounty projects that we follow. It should be
sold immediately when there is an opportunity, in my opinion it is very risky holding tokens that we get from the bounty. If I get tokens
from the bounty I will immediately sell them and I buy bitcoin, ethereum and litecoin. Because of the third these coins are very good for
investment.

Well, let's be hopeful that this year would come with a difference when it comes to holding tokens and some price increment because previous years,wasn't good with holding,rather the price of the coin keep dipping,but as this year looks bullish,I believe holding might not be bad with proper research on a coin.

Altcoin that is worth investing in is the Launchpad in Binance in 2019, altcoin has made a 10x increase even investors are happy to see coins like that, are you not looking for them in the Binance exchange?

i can tell you that all these projects you listed has no future and will surely fail just like others. quality projects hardly do bounties and many believed that the bounty hunters never value tokens whereas they are meanly holding believing that there token will gain value. the reverse is the case.

We cannot really expect things to happen again the way it was before. The bounty way back was very beneficial and it is nothing compared to what we have right now. We need to be more careful and make sure that we read the whitepaper carefully and even the team's background should be observed so that we can have a good bounty that would give us good profit.

We all want bounties to become better again not just to have a better profit but also to make the crypto community become healthy again. In terms of holding tokens, we need to be observant of the price movement of the token so that we may know if it is best to hold or sell at a certain moment.

You are right, now investors for new projects also declined not as busy as before. not talking for the benefit of bounty hunters, but this all has an impact on the number of bad projects but trapping many bounty hunters. if we look at what's happening right now, what% of projects pay well and have progress on their platforms? even many who make successful claims also eventually the project will stop in the first year they run the platform.

Hope we all this year can get a good project as it has ever happened in the year 2017 which at the moment many projects that we follow can get satisfactory results, and in the year 2019 we feel harmed by the Scamer project that So much and then we do not feel the results of our work, and nowadays there are some projects that we can believe hopefully can get the results according to our work.

You can't always predict accurately whether the project will be worth hodling or not. Good advice is to sell a half of your coins upon their exchange listing. Don't be too greedy :)

The Crypto market is unpredictable as we have seen in the last few years, It is again possible that we see the same scenario as we have seen in 2017 December. But bounty hunters will not get so huge profit due to
1- Now the ICO/IEo projects gives very fewer tokens
2- Only a few projects go to good exchanges and their price remain stable otherwise all other dumps forever.

It has been two long years. I have token holdings from bounties before, and I am not selling those coins at this point because I have no other choice but to hold simply because there are no market volume and those coins turned out to be "shitcoins". Even if there is an anticipated uptrend this year, I doubt that all of those coins will have a value reasonable enough to sell. There are other coins which are not yet listed and those were the down sides. I have also accepted the fact that some of my holdings are pressumed dead already.
Indeed. Ihave earned some tokens from good and promising projects before but still, those coins are just displayed in my wallet having no idea if I would still get profit from those coins. But I am hoping that I would be able to make use of such tokens in order for my effort to not be put into waste.
It depends on the market situation to be honest. No matter how huge the potential of the coin, if the market situation will not go along with that potential, that coin would more likely die due to the influence of the market. But this year, there are hopes for a recovery and I am hoping that things would be back to its feet.

thanks for your suggest, but i think you must to giviing reason why Tokoin, Gowithmi, Sero, and TemTum is worth to us hold for long term or daily traders, but if i see GMAT and SERO is better than TOKOIN if i see on chart in a days before til today

It can be the reverse case as well. Back in 2018-19, the prices went down by a lot and one of the reasons was the proliferance of the scam ICOs. Even the established coins took a hit from the prevailing negative sentiments in the market, which were in turn triggered by these scam projects. And even now, there is no scarcity of scams and the market continues to suffer as a result.

   Things are pretty clear. People who have a sum of money for investment, can invest in most of the currencies in the TOP 100 and will make a profit. For other crypto lovers it is a little more difficult to make a profit, because there are more and more SCAM projects. To choose good projects it takes a lot of patience to learn from your mistakes and a lot of information.

Some bounty project tokens do have a good future to hold on to us but it is not uncommon if the price of the token seems to plunge freely when it has been registered in the exchange so, it is better to examine how good the project is before we decide to save or sell their tokens, for example tele project tokens that originally had a good price, but now many say if the project has been scammed and made the price of tokens to be very cheap.

The number of scam projects is indeed worrying so there are always doubts to join, lest this ends with drama and our work is in vain. But, again, basically, everything has risks and we must be prepared to face them. In order to further strengthen the analysis before deciding to join a campaign, make sure the project you support has a real function, if possible, working products, supported by trusted and influential companies in crypto, and handled by trusted bounty managers.

Sometimes even good projects can end up at the bottom. It's like a lottery. No matter how well you do your research, it doesn't give you a 100% guarantee.

Yep, this. When it comes to cryptocurrency there really aren't any guarantees at all.

at the moment the price is corrected again, so it is still difficult to predict, but indeed if you believe in your own analysis, it will be better if you follow your conscience. I also have several altcoins that I still hold, even though they seem worthless, but I believe that they will improve later

Yeah, it is a very good advice.  I have held several coins I got from bounties for some months because I saw the potential for greatness in them.  At the end of the day I did not regret doing so.  I am someone that don't sell bounty rewards quickly like that, I use to do some monitoring to decide on what to do with them.  I am not an hasty dumper.

Well that's a good project if the words you say are correct. I have also participated in many bounty but no good bounty until the end, the project gradually died after a period of operation and the price went down hundreds of times compared to the beginning.

I've been doing it for few altcoins that I earned but in the end, it's value is more smaller than the previous coins that I sold. A lot of my altcoins are now less value compare to the price in the month after they launched and it's very disappointing. Luckily some of them I already exchange to ethereum or bitcoin and it's help me a lot with my financial problem that time. I believe in some cases like OP said sometimes we must hold a few altcoins that we think it will be great in the future.

We don't expect back again 2017 because before days we can't see next but we can decrease bad market situation. Really everyone was lucky for participating many good bounty the gone year 2017.

That is already given if we invest or join in bounties. Regardless how good the project is there's no assurance of sure profit, it has risk often just like any other investment opportunity out there. Even we invest in top coins like bitcoin and eth then hold it, we are not certain if we're going to gain profit because the value can go down (even to zero) since the market is unpredicted and anything can happen.

comparing projects will only make us confused. however, the current situation is very different from the past. I agree, even coins like bitcoin and ethereum are still quite risky. we can only hope that the situation can be the same as before, only now we need to really pay attention to the projects we support.

This is the truth about bounty tokens, because it is obvious that we cannot dump off all tokens immediately after token distributions.
Some tokens are a rare gem, that need to be held for a while, before selling for profit.

An example of this is the tachyon protocol, that went as high as 0.01$ bringing good amount of profits to bounty hodlers.

feel the same way as 2017? it's very unlikely, ICO is now extinct and with just a finger count we can see a successful ICO, now more and more smart people are here to fight scammers. Honestly, I only have tokens obtained from bounties, which only become rubbish in the wallet, only hoping to have a price in the future (impossible dream)

don't rely too much on new tokens or tokens that are generated from prizes for the long term, because in my opinion it's far riskier than other top altcoins. if you want to invest in the long term, if you want to invest safely in the long term, then I would recommend investing in BTC or other forms of altcoin such as ETH / EOS / BNB. some of these altcoins have great potential in the future.

I can't say about other coin you mentioned to be good project but that of tokoin, it isn't performing as expected. It is dumping lately despite other coins hodling the tides. I think it was suppose to be a good project from IEO to distribution but it has dropped in price and also volume of course.

Actually it's not difficult to invest money in crypto but with the condition that you are ready to lose money, and to reduce the risk of losing a lot of money then most people invest in the top 10
