Often timw, i have seen lots of Bounty hunters complain about inability to sell their earned rewards simply because it dumped massively and got de listed or wasted away or died.

But I feel otherwise, some Bounty hunters expect too much from project they worked for and got few tokens, so instead of taking profits, they hold and end up earning nothing, then they claim the project is scam.

Stop working for free
Don't expect too much profits from projects.

NB: Taking profits does not literally mean dumping tokens, for examples, i earned 4,500,000 cyfm then worth over 200$
Today it worths less than 10$.

Always dyor

if I personally bounty is not my benchmark to hold the tokens or coins that I run while the pay is right for a few weeks that I run I will immediately sell and forget about it, whether it's up or down I have not taken care of it and while it's free why should I pay

This is one of the qualities a bounty hunter must have. I know joining bounties is time-consuming and needs a lot of effort promoting the token but I guess it is rewarding somehow once it gets to exchanges. Bounties have never been like before because of failed ICOs so I guess most ICOs who are running their campaign nowadays don't really have a budget in the first place to pay bounty hunters.

The way you put in more efforts is what determines the outcome of what you get, bounties of today requires lots of effort and if you aren't ready for this you should quit, Many fake projects will show up for sure but if you got your detecting skills you can easily avoid the bad projects

Certainly! It is the cryptocurrency market; the last place you should be expecting too much. Even as an investor. Talk less of being a bounty hunter. Most bounty hunters go into projects without even making their due diligence. And yet, they expect to profit. Don’t expect too much as a bounty hunter. Especially now that there are shitty projects all over the place.

It has been a while since many bounties have been very unprofitable and many are making short-term gains, so when the tokens are paid off they are worthless. some don't even pay by leaving the scam behind. but not all do so, there is still a good thing but having to be selective to be sure you will get it too. don't feel that this is going to end but be sure to work together so that the scam doesn't grow, then the bounty will be greatly benefited again.

   Nice topic and kind words! Many are obsessed with profit, it's all what they see. Making profit is nice, no argue about that, but
sometimes we could support a project even if it's not profitable, in the future who knows, I believe with the right support from
people anything is possible.
   I have some tokens that lost value over time. I still hold them, I talk with the team in their telegram, I follow them on Twitter,
I am trying to be supportive as I can, and many situation will change over time.

You talk about the results, of course, you can't determine whether your work will be in vain or not at first.

No need to stop IMO, just need to improve the ability to analyze the prospects of a project.
I think there are still many bounty managers in this forum who have better analytical skills than bounty hunters. Then why did they accept the contract if the project wouldn't have good prospects according to them? I'm sure they care more about their reputation than a payment.

Be at least a slightly smarter hunter!  ::)

I have seen a lot of ICO tokens before that had a massive sale during their crowdfunding stage and a lot of people were expecting for a massive growth, however, it turned the other way around. That is why joining bounties is same as trading or investing, you should really do your own research whether it is worth spending time and supporting. I've been into some bounties with less participant where tthe value was massive when the bounty was distributed. Don't be a bounty hunter who follows hype, make your own research and stand and your own point of view and opinion.

The point is we should not expect too much bounty as the main producer because in promoting the bounty only profit is not guaranteed in the future to get good rewards.
If you have free time then it's better to do the bounty but if other work is better leave the bounty working more to produce.
Beware do not promote ICO projects because in the current year we already know that promoting ICO is no longer profitable and we will only be trapped in fraud.

The era where Bounty campaigns are still profitable are now over already. Bounty campaign isn't as profitable as it was 2 years ago. As a bounty hunter in the past, I know how you feel if the campaign that you have promoted for almost a month or more didn't pay you or you have been paid but the problem is the tokens doesn't have any value at all.

You are lucky if the token will have value because you can dump it immediately but the problem is you can't sell it at the initial price in the exchange because when the times that you will sell it, the price will definitely go down very hard. You can sell your token but it is not worth your time and effort.

If you sold it when the total value of the token is $200 then you are lucky. Mistake for those who expected too much for the token and hoping that it will rise in the future.

No DYOR. Just get another work and stop bounty hunting.

From my experience, DYOR still works because it increases your confidence and chance to find a good bounty. Not all bounties are scams though, there's still a few which you just need to find. Remember that there are ways to increase that chance by for example, joining bounties from a reputable members of the forum. Bounty hunting is like investing in the market but what you're investing is time, you never know if it will fail or not, you just have to do your own research and if you are feeling confident enough, then invest your time in it.

The problem here is that people are greedy, most who failed are blinded from the fact that you can't get rich here easily. Just like the OP said, they expect too much from those bounties instead of taking what's in front of them.

Therefore after we have received the token from the bounty and the token has a value, I think it should be sold directly because the bounty project is now not long-lasting enough in their exchanges, only at the beginning it can be traded, but for a long time this token did not develop and die.
If we have received a token it would be better to sell it regardless of the price.

no one wants to work for free, it's just that we all hope for the best and success of the project that we advertise. besides, I agree that we don't need to expect too much, but we work because we hope it can be successful. However, some bounties that were quite profitable at the beginning of this year, such as Tachyon made hopes that made me think that there were some bounties or projects out there that still wanted to develop their projects better and pay according to what they meant.

This thread shows the huge need for new, unique projects which help the community actually make some money.

I'm not expecting too much on bounties right now since most of the projects that have launched their bounty here is either shit project or they just lowered the allocation on it. But still despite of this, I'm still working on some bounties that I think is good, I already stop promoting bounties that didn't passed my criteria. I only do bounties that I think worth promoting for just for them to recognize by the community. I'm still holding some bounty tokens and I didn't regret it since I made my decision not to sell tokens from a good project despite of the market situations.

Yes, that's right, I also encountered such a problem. When there are earned tokens and it is impossible to sell them due to the lack of a very low price. And now I try, as soon as the tokens arrive in the wallet, I immediately sell them on the exchange. And at the moment you need to know in advance that you will not receive a very large income from remuneration. And you need to be content with what is.

Im also a bounty hunter but i never expect to get a lot from bounty campaign. I wanna ask you that when your token worth over $200 why didn't you sell your coin? That has already happened so many times.
Taking the profit from the market can be done through various ways. Just a small liquidate to the market will be effectively helping the market to avoid the panic sell that caused by the dump.
The hunters must never try to keep it for long term (if the token looks suspicious and it doesn't have bright future)
The majority of the hunters were dumping their tokens ASAP caused by there was no enough buy order in the market and this makes all of them wanna to dump it.
The problem is not all of hunters aware about this.

Bounty hunters should be ready for the worst, only strong hardworking bounty hunters will prevail in this crypto space and its not a place for the lazy bones anymore, you have to join many bounty projects, I'm sure one or two will give good result

actually?as a bounty hunter?you must not expect anything by now because only tiny part of Bounty campaigns and airdrop are legit ,most of them are bringing nothing but scams and you must admit that mate.
this thread is a good advice for many hunters but you must put this also in your own position because there are no one will be more concern about you but yourself.
much better if you don't waste your time for such and find more profitable way than this scamming area.
seems like you are very dedicated in your Bounty Hunter description mate?but very well said  on this part because there is nothing you can do but stay strong and ready for all instances that may come to your way as hunter.

Each person has their own choice, so you cannot force people to make the same choice as you. I see a lot of projects growing after a long time of operation, the price of it has increased hundreds of times compared to the original and everyone is very profitable if they hold it. And besides there are also a lot of projects collapsed after being listed and I'm sure those are scam projects. Personally, I don't sell too soon the tokens I receive from bounty, I choose to hold it for a long time if it's the tokens of good projects.

I agree with your opinion, But sometimes projects tokens are just abandoned by the team and not listed to any cryptocurrency exchange so those tokens are just wasted and badly I have plenty of those tokens from the bounties that I joined and it's all wasted. thats why it's better to sell those tokens until it has some value or else your sweat and effort will be vaporized.

As a bounty hunter its a bad idea to keep all the tokens you earned through bounties, my own way is to sell 80 percent of the tokens and keep the rest just in case the price surge in near future, most bounty projects turn scam after several months of listing on exchanges

There's nothing wrong with participating in a lot of bounties as long as you have all the time make it. But before doing such bounty campaigns, be sure to do your part by researching on your own so you can avoid posting in scam projects. Bounty hunting is not that profitable like before so never prioritize it. Those tokens from bounties now have very low value and some are even delisted in an exchange. Find a regular job that will give you consistent profits and do not rely on bounties alone.

lucky for me that i only Joined limited Bounty Hunting but made their way to success,some dont really make a multi million but at least we are being paid and convert the payment into bitcoin.
and some Bounties that i joined pays in ethereum or Bitcoin and some are XRP the safest i can have.
i am choosy in joining maybe that same reason why i am not a victim of the scamming happening in  Bounty section.

---

just follow what OP advised because he seems to be a consistent Bounty Hunter so he knew already whats happening inside the area.

talking profit in the form of selling your coins is considered dumping  .  dont expect too much means you are contented on what you get from them , let say you got a coin with a less value but would you sell it right away if it has a small value ?  would it be wise to wait for a while and see if that coin jumps atleast a little before you sell . hodling is risky but before you do it you should understand it first and accept what ever it end up  . but as a hunter its good to limit your expectation so that it wont hurt you alot  .

Would have been a different story if you sold at that 200$ and move on, I earned a thousand dollars this January 2020 from a token I earned in bounty campaign of 2019, the token got listed in January 2020 and I just sold, after few weeks it turn worthless

Right. Don't wait too long. It's better to sell your bounty token after you get it. Especially if the number of tokens in the spreadsheet reaches thousands. 3k, 5k, 10k, with the number of tokens that much, obviously the price will fall. And you don't hold the token.

Don't expect too much in a way that you understand the possible consequence of being a bounty hunter. It's not all the time that you've got to meet good projects that are paying and has a decent developers.

It has been experienced by everyone who has been into hunting that if you are not lucky enough, you'll still try again to join another bounty which you don't have an idea if they will pay or not.

I agree with you. indeed some of the final bounty programs are often too late to register their tokens on the market. The developer always says wait until the market run. then how long should we wait to exchange the gifts we receive, if possible the market does not run, is it possible that the gifts we receive will only be empty savings that has no price. now we know expecting something too high is not good.

The real reason why bounty hunters are complaining is the fact that they have probably worked more for that coin than the owners or basically the team that created it. Nobody wants to promote a coin every day for hours for months and then see the team behind that coin basically does absolutely nothing at all. That literally happens half of the time when you promote a new coin, it is the worst feeling ever because people are basically spending their time and effort and maybe sometimes even money to promote it and they can't make a single cent profit from it, all because the team is not doing anything.

If it was just about the team being bad or the team being scam and what not I will understand not going up, but when the team is "lazy" that is not really a reason to actually stay low. That is what people are complaining about, lazy teams creating coins and pushing all the responsibilities to bounty hunters.

If you are following bounty paid in new altcoins, you mustn't expect too much. Why? All people should understand about the current condition of new altcoins. Most new coins from ICO, STO, IEO are hard to survive with appropriate values on the market. After fundraising commonly they ended with dump prices on exchanges. So, with this condition how we can earn profits. It is not only the problem for bounty hunters, but it also experienced by investors.

After you got hold of your token coming from bounty it's none of anybody's business if you want to hodl it or dump your token you can do whatever you want to do because you worked for it it's your payment and the project benefited from you because investors got to know the project because of bounty hunter's effort.

Well, we can't blame them for expecting too much in bounty campaigns because I am pretty sure that those persons who expect a lot are the ones who received a lot of profit way back 2017. Personally, I have still some of my tokens under my wallet and waiting for them to be enlist in exchanges or waiting for it to fluctuate. And if it will not be get list or it will take time, I will still leave it there hoping that someday it will be useful in other ways.

No. That's not the case the issue here is that most projects turn out to be outright scam after a while even before hunters can take advantage of their efforts in promotion. Others pay hunters little to nothing whereas others take years to get listed and still yield a very insignificant value to hunters.

and that is what you need to understand before joining a bounty campaign to not expect more from the project that you are promoting, because most ICO projects do not guarantee success for you including uncertain results or cannot be used as a benchmark for your income. and it's important for anyone not to get your hopes up with the project token that you are promoting, you need to have another job with a steady income.

Right now Bounty hunting is not as profitable as it was couple of years ago. Right now there is a lot of scam project that causes the investor to get away from the market. Investors are not in a hurry to invest that's why most of the projects fail and Bounty hunter also gets nothing. Another thing bounty hunter also sells their coin massively most of the times it is also a reason for price dump.

most of bounty hunter indeed many expect to get a lot from ther, but they forget that the era of big payments has ended, and now bounty hunter only get a small payment, but it also depends on them because if they rotate the reward from the bounty for example it is used for trading and they succeeded I think they can still get a lot it's just that it takes courage because I also use this method and several times failed but many also succeeded

Actually I am not expecting too much money from bounty campaign.I am just trying to catch few new coins which have bright future.Because If I get a good coin by doing bounty (if rewards amount is low it doesn't matter).Near future if the coin pump that time will be best.But doing bounty expecting 500-1000$ is actually worst thinking ever.Better to catch good coin for future.

The era of earning decent profits in bounty hunting had passed just a few ones are successful I would relate this to the bad market situation of cryptocurrencies although lately it seems the bull had taken over the market and also scary stories of scams had discouraged many investors participating in ICOs which had s drastic effect on most of the tokens and their projects.

It's same for everyone no matter how hard someone is working. Maybe he will get a little bit more compared to them but overall it's not worth equal to time and effort he had put in to promote to project.

It's not profitable anymore.

So hunters also should urge themselves to sell their tokens before it got dumped by the investors.If a project cares about dumping from their bounty participants then pay them in bitcoin so token value will be safer but most projects don't dare to do such things because they have to spend from their pockets.

Well, it all depends on the project's potential and the skills of a bounty hunter. If the unskilled bounty hunter look for the same reward as the experienced bounty hunters, the end is always the same. It is not always time-wasting activity, there have been paying bounty campaigns too,from my experience.

You are right on your point but i am not see all of projects in one line. Maximum projects now days are scam so after finished their failed ieo/ico bounty hunters not get paid and which one they get paid coin price is worthless. But not all of projects are shit project. Now days people don't believe so much on altcoin. But you will always earn benefit from a good quality projects (which is rare to see now days).



Not just you, maximum bounty hunter suffer like this whom are hold their reward for better price. But it's true though that you can't hit the bull eye every time. So in my opinion if you think that project is good and they have future in crypto world then hold their coin for long time not for short time. Cause it's take some time for a project to turn a good quality project. And if you think that project have no future then immediately sell their coin before it's turn 0$ value.

Not a new thing and this had always been the situation on most bounty hunters which is inevitable or things that you cant really avoid.
It isnt bad to believe on projects that we do advertise but we know that most project nowadays turns out to be a shit no matter how good
is their motive/target which they do end up on becoming a garbage in the end of the line.So basically if you do experience this once or twice
for sure you wont consider to jump in again on the third time.Also, no matter how hard you do make a research you do still end up on a
garbage project in the end of the day.

Bountyhunters' expectations should count in market conditions. It was quite fair to wait huge profits in 2017 when this market was young and almost every new crypto was growing fast :)

Things and altcoins has changed tremendously since 2017, and you are right,
I feel a bounty hunter does not need to wait for ath before takig profits from efforts made.

So basically, figure out quality bounties to join, and you can enjoy quality rewards

People including me have been saying the same thing for a very long time. Bounty hunters shouldn't expect to get rich over night. Most of the projects are now shit and working for them is just a total waste of time. You will receive tokens for your work, but those tokens will barely worth anything.
You are better off doing something else more efficient with the time you have instead of spending those time on bounty projects.

OP has a wrong idea about this business. If we sholdn't expect a lot from new projects then why advertise them in the first place? You're just helping them scam others and promoting something that isn't needed in this space and will probably die anyway.

If you think the project is bad and will become another shitcoin don't promote it!

I agree with your opinion about "Stop Working for Free"

I used to be a bounty hunter who always does bounty assignments every day hoping for the right rewards. I worked on social media campaigns, articles and was once a translator.
in 2016 until the end of 2017 it was indeed a bounty and ICO success, but entering 2018 the Bounty Campaign turned into a Trash campaign inhabited by many scammers who did not pay the bounty hunter. Even projects that continue to pay will face problems about exchanges that never list and are very cheap at ICO prices.
Right now all you can do is Stop working for free as you say.

Become a user who can be useful for this forum and improve your account.
Signature campaigns that have large payouts are waiting for you for anyone who wants to contribute to the forum and become a useful user. not only rely on the ICO Bounty campaign which is not necessarily successful and the price of the Token is always below the ICO price and sometimes cannot be sold so it becomes rubbish

I think quite lot project today on bitcointalk they do not pay bounty pool. I have many users who complain about it! Very sad

Thats the hard truth with some coins these days they literally can disappoint you when you decide to hold I will just recommend buying at dip no matter how good the coin Most time or all the time the coin drops and it can be massive and beyond recover at that rate is like you are done for

Well, this is a subject for discussion as I only participate in a project I foresee it can stand the test of time, so why selling in rush? I have participated in many projects that worth nothing, some less than $20 but with the patient, I am able to cash ou over $300. That is just the beauty of this market, so volatile.

Before the bounty community got crowded with loads of people. We had projects paying people tokens that had value and were not dumped but either held onto for a while or sold at near ICO price and that made the bounty hunting business juicy and lucrative and also attracted other participants to join, but the new participants who joined the bounty campaigns only to make money as they had heard and they didn't understand the way and manner in which tokenomics works and how to handle tokens even after they have been paid. They rush off to the market and dump the tooken and go back feeling underpaid and almost same as someone who worked for free. They should understand that these dumped tokens are actually someone's project and needs to be valued as it will equally be valuable in their own wallets.

You're right, in fact, the ability to hold back the coins that were sent to you by the action bonus is also an experience and work on your actions. In any other case, you can just not make a profit.

Yep, I made that mistake, because I hoped that too many tokens that I got from the bounty were worth a lot. And that's why some bounty hunters sell it right away because they fear that their work will only get a few dollars (and maybe it's not worth it). I know it's very difficult to believe in new projects after altcoin enthusiasts are now and there are fewer new projects.

I feel that now, don't expect too much from a new project. Sometimes estimates are not comparable to reality. Therefore, now I prefer projects that are already on the stock exchange. So that expectations can be certain, at least have value.

Participation in bounty companies is free and therefore, of course, you should not expect that you will receive an incredible profit from each bounty company, that is why you need to participate in a large number of bounty companies and then the income from these bounty companies will always please.

I only joined some bounties so far and from my experience I could say that we shouldn't really expect too much from it.
Don't be fooled by their high amount campaign because their crypto couldn't even make it near their initial offering price and they couldn't even be listed on a decent exchange sites.

why say those things too early  ? but the question is are all of them like that  ?  . sometimes there are unpredictable and when you think they are fraud , your wrong because at the end you will  be shock that they pay big and whats more shocking is that thier coins rises with a good percentage  . just like what happen before on the projects that i join  .  its not bad to expect because it only means that you are a person that have full of hopes  . only hopeless people are the ones that got turned off easily  .

indeed the bounty campaign today is very different from last year, in the past there were still many people who were not familiar with the bounty campaign and there were still many good projects that could make investors interested and many successful projects, but for now there are many scammers and many people who know bounty campaign is no longer able to prosper, it's better to find work in the real world or make your own business by trading.

How about selling some portions of your tokens and keeping the rest just in case the price surge in few months? I think this is the best move that every bounty hunters should use because you really can't tell what will happen, sometimes you end up regretting selling tokens after they appreciate in value

You are right but to be honest taking profits from bounties are mostly from dumping/selling the tokens because the tokens/coins price always fall so hard after the tokens listed on the exchange. If you are late a second, your token value will reduced drastically and it happens so many times on many projects and tokens.

At the first place you are the one who picked them.
It is not them who picked you.

So why complain?
It is all your risk for taking a job which you don't know if will be successful or not.
I see a lot of people also complain with it and want bounty hunters to have some kind of a unity.
We are united, it is just that when it comes to picking job it is our choice who to support.

Its all on you to choose wisely, though you can't completely fend off bad/scam projects but every little mistakes you make is a lesson, unless you fail to learn from your mistakes, all you need to keep doing is good research, find reasons why projects fails most times and you will understand

The first issue of bounty Hunters is that they forget the naturally hunter could just be luck to kill something big today and nothing tomorrow or something very small even in the same forest. Social media  campaign maylocate the same percent of disbursement for Facebook and when the population of participant has overwhelmed the percent they have very little at distribution. Faithful signature campaign participants uses the only opportunity to join one campaign at a time, so they tend to have more.miners get more  and traders too. hunters learn to manage their token as it may come.

Isn't this the reason why hunters are not very welcome or blamed for every dump that occur in that project, often times hunters will rush to dump their reward even before the real investors had the chance to do so, at the end this will affect the price greatly, more reason why some team are refusing to pay hunters and other are paying peanut just for this particular reason.

It should be, because all bounty hunters have experienced regrets after selling all tokens at the start of listing in the exchange, only what I often see is many tokens or new coins always dump after being listed on the exchange, except for tokens or coins that are already completely true popular in cryptocurrency it will not be easy to experience its price dump, even if it happens dumps will always be able to rise in the future.

Lesson learned never hold tokens came from bounty campaign. Usually these tokens dump when got listed on exchange and many people complain why the token price easily depreciated. Only few ICOs retain the price of their tokens and that usually happened in most of campaign. Better yet join a signature campaign that pays off btc.

By participating in bounty, bounty hunters should not expect to earn huge amount money as bounty is passing a hard time but real and hard working bounty hunters can earn few but that can cover his/her cost of labor. lazy hunters will not cope with the situation as they are left away by depression.

I believe that some bounty hunters are just expecting too much from alts. Most altcoins I heard were never meant for a long-term hodling. They were mostly intended to be just for the sake of short-term trading. This is what I was trying to talk about when it comes to finding legitimate bounties. People think that when there is legitimate project means that they would earn plenty, but sometimes a project would be legitimate but in the end it would be just a "crappy" project.

"Legitimate" and "profitability" arent' synonymous words.

I can relate and oftentimes fall victim of my being greedy. I tend to hold my bounty rewards eventhough the equivalent is substantial enough because I was hoping that the project would prosper and eventually make it big in the market. Only to realize that its value went down very low or the project was eventually abandoned. so right now, even if the stakes is not high, I right away exchange the tokens. Better salvage any value for my effort than not having anything in the end.

Yup market has been really disappointing since last 2 years for all the bounty hunters, seems like there are no real and legit projects coming up now, i have been joining a lot of campaigns but got paid from only a few and all those too have no value, so all these months have proven to be waste of time but im not disappointed im still hopeful of good times to come back.

You will not waste time if you have experience and choose good bounty and have many chances of success. And it's best to just join the bounty with a part-time job, don't focus too much on it. Looking for an outside job so you can ensure a stable income

I agree with you position, it is too late to earn money on Bounty campaigns. They are giving less and less profit with time, so it is better to to in for trading of long-term investments if you want to earn money on cryptocurrency market.

Undoubtedly, income from participation in the Bounty companies today has decreased by tens and hundreds of times, compared with 2016 and 2017.  Nevertheless, there are such Bounty companies that make it possible to earn $ 100 - $ 300 in a few months.  This is the average indicator of the bounty hunter’s earnings, which in any case can be used as seed capital for trading cryptocurrency or for investing in more promising projects so as not to dampen real money from your home budget into cryptocurrency.

Very agree with OP. People must know, or maybe know since earlier. If me i think from around march 2018 i can see bounty is really hard to pick in case if we look for high rewards like when it is in early. From that time i know bounty is not good as primary income, and look for real job or if people have skill in trading, better focus on it.

Given the realities of today's cryptocurrency market, you should not count on getting quick profit from the received new token. You need to choose the right time to sell it, or reset it as soon as possible in case of our uncertainty about its prospects. If in the second half of 2017, absolutely all tokens grew in price, then this period will not be there. The market and its participants are constantly changing. Investors are becoming smarter and do not want to buy dubious tokens. There is no demand, so they cannot be sold. In the future, I think that there will be no problems with working tokens. There will be many universal cryptocurrency exchanges that will trade absolutely all types of working cryptocurrencies. In any case, new convenient opportunities for the exchange of cryptocurrencies will appear. Now we are only at the beginning of this journey.

Aren't these contradicting each others? You are basically working for free if you are not expecting much. Also, this whole bounty thing should have new standards.
They should mark the allocated bounty percentage on the topic, rather then "You will get $1,000,000,000 in CRAP tokens". No one cares about those numbers anyway.

No way for free work, who guys will spend time for free advertisement or promotion? New bounty hunter's exception is too much, even though they participated a few bounties. Hard worker however will get money because they are not expect big payment in any specific campaign, they worked a many campaigns. We should not count expected payment in ICO/IEO price.

No matter how you scrutinize them you can't completely avoid the pitfalls. Otherwise, no one in their right senses will want to advertise for a scam project. These fraudsters have deviced ways of hoodwinking people into investing and running adverts for them. Even wise hunters often get caught in their web of deceit.

We are not earning the token for free.

Spent 10-30 mins everyday for almost 3 month, well its normal everyone doing some good expect for their reward. Also if the sale was really succesfull, can make people more hope to the project itself.

Its not about dumping all the time, bounty tokens must hold as well if you really believe in the project you are holding. You will regret it somehow if you dump it without knowing the capabilities of the projects you are holding. On the negative side, if you think it is trash then dont hesitate to dump it all.

One thing I want to say, stop comparing the current bounty with the bounties in 2017.  The atmosphere has changed, friend.  Move on do not just get caught up in memories of the past, it will make you difficult to develop and can not accept the current state.  I admit that at this time it was quite difficult to find a legitimate bounty, mostly scams and gave a lot of drama.  But we have to accept that, stand up to natural selection, be more careful in analyzing projects and most importantly don't expect too much.  Accept all bad things as a risk.

I feel like holding a token is beyond believing in the project.

The project itself must proffer a valuable product worthy enough to convince holders about its prospect.

I also think there's no pain in crypto currency, we can only learn

In my opinion, most bounty hunters are too hoping to get a big profit by doing the projects they choose. So when the distribution of tokens
has been delayed or even already received a token but when it is sold the price is far from what was expected immediately disappointed,
stressed and blamed the projects. We should have from the start promoted these projects from the beginning don't expect too much, so if
something bad happens later we can be more receptive to the situation.

Many bounty hunters still hope to get lucky as in 2017. They dream that there is a bounty or several bounties probably bring big profits suddenly. In fact, the condition of new projects currently is so much different than in 2017. Many of them are just low-quality projects, having weak concepts, and even no professional team members. On the other hand, investors are getting increasingly uninterested in new projects because of experiencing many failed and scam projects. Many hunters forget or don't realize about these!!

Nevertheless, some forum participants manage to earn good money even now.
The Bounty Market has become more passive, many projects simply do not enter the market, the rest are scammers, and only some of the remaining projects can really be worth something.
In other words, one project out of 100 can allow you to earn. But do you have enough of your knowledge to find a similar project is a big question.
After all, a universal formula does not exist, and even the most promising projects can crash.

A similar advice could work here in 2016 - 2017, but throughout the whole of 2018, 19, we observed a picture when people kept part of their coins for the long term,
however, subsequently projects were often closed and people received nothing at all .
Therefore, now the most profitable strategic decision will be the sale of all your shit coins as soon as possible.

bounty hunters complain that the prizes they get don't match the results of their hard work promoting the projects they as long participate in. actually being a bounty hunter is a fun job because it doesn't cost money at all but I agree with you because don't expect too much to get many profits to become a bounty hunter because it's not will possible to happens.

The problem is too many people who are taking the bounty as their main job. I personally didn't even care whether i got a payment or not. If that was my lucky day and i will get decent payment from my bounty job but if that's not my lucky day and i don't care what will be happening. I don't wanna just waste my time into the shitty project

well the thought of bounty as the main work must be changed because at this time the bounty campaign is widely known by people and the opportunity for the results of the bounty campaign is also not guaranteed, so it is better to have to have a real job that can guarantee your financial condition, imagine if you are married then the results of the current bounty campaign are not suitable, use your creativity and expertise for a harder effort so that you can make a lot of money for you.

No one joins a bounty project just for fun. If that was the case, then what is the need for the promoters to offer bounty? They can just ask the Bitcointalk users to give them free promotion, as they are having "fun". Even in the shittiest of the bounty project, the participants expect some sort of reward in the end and they will be dejected if that is not realized. For many of the new users here in Bitcointalk, even a reward of $5 or $10 matters a lot. But it is tragic that many of the bounties refuse to pay even this small amount.

Always put this in your minds hunters that joining bounty paid with tokens with no exchanger and no value is like gambling you will be lucky in the end or you will end up nothing its too risky joining bounty thing this days unlike before, if your purpose for joining for bounty is to make a living better find a job outside this forum.

Nothing wrong with expectation because the real problem is how choose the legit bounty program?. Choose the right project still become mystery and I think all bounty hunter ( now ) more selective than before, from 2015 - 2018 all program will follow but this time only several with wise analysis and expectation. This is time we should find another way make money using crypto, someday bounty program will stop and our expectation will collapse. We know bounty hunter risk so prepare it with wisely.

Honestly  I won't consider expecting too much from a bounty project a bad thing, its part of what keeps me going forward, since 2018 I keep joining different type of bounty projects and to this day only a single project pays me big for my hardwork

that why you need to join as many as you can join project, so if another one project is fail then another will recover it.
although it not uncertain, but atleast you make some plan to avoid it, and also you need to be active and fast respon when token distribution you have to sell it quickly before it dump.

Bounty hunting isn't what it used to be with rewarding campaigns a plenty back in 2017-2018 but there's still some opportunities for the now practically old fashioned ICO fund raising format out there and doing thorough research is always a must

no wonder if bounty hunters really hope for a good bounty and pay high, and the average of them are unemployed, including me. so working here is a very dependent hope. but yes, you are also right that the bounty hunter must be able to accept the situation that the bounty does not always run smoothly. sometimes get scams, low token prices, tokens that can't be sold, tokens that aren't listed. but remember, that every effort must have obstacles. a trader also has the same problem but in a different context. so, just think of it as a test to make us more enthusiastic and study.

happy bounting

If you are the type that have the mindset of not expecting too much from bounties you won't be able to give in your best and even if the bounty project become a success you will have low reward, its better and helping to believe you can earn big from bounties

Yes, but everyone expects a lot of rewards from the bounty program that they follow, even though when the rewards are distributed a little, which is basically everyone will expect a reward that is greater than that given through the bounty program.

Whenever I participate in any bounty I strongly admit that there will be one result of my efforts positive or negative and I will have to accept it without any excuse because it was completely my decision nobody has forced me to do so and yes I don't expect to much but we should always be positive.

This case is the personal choice of every individual from bounty hunters, you can't say holding back a project is bad and selling quickly is the best decision. There must be an important consideration here, we must know how strong the project is in the future in order to determine whether to hold or sell immediately. Bounty hunters not only seek profit solely with work but there are also those who support the project as an investment by doing work.

I think now there comes a time when the token retention strategy will start working.Apparently, the altcoin season is very close.Bounty participants will not stand aside.

Well sad to say, but this is the current truth about bounty hunting nowadays. Is was not the same as before, but for me, I cant really abandone bounty hunting even if I earn less, who knows I might get the jackpot.

this is normal. For bounty hunters, I encountered too many such things. I also participated in the CYFM bounty event like you. I didn't sell it. I remember it was a bounty on a crypto radio station. This coin is still in my wallet. I don't know if the project is still under development. Now I can only wait until the next bull market starts to operate. Expect him to live that time. There are still many coins like this in my wallet.

I think you're right. As a bounty hunter, we should know that joining in a bounty campaign you should already take the risk of earning only few or sometimes not earning from it. Sometimes we could be lucky if we earn from what we expect. But never expect too much.

From Bounty Section campaign, Expecting too much from this section is kind of stupidity. Moreover, it takes a long time to get paid for this job.

According to experience, don't expect too much from holding tokens in your wallet because it turns out that the coins that you hold become worthless at all have even been abandoned by the developer. So it's better not to hold the token for too long, if necessary, sell your token immediately.

As a bounty hunter, i think you should know what you really want.  It's always subjected to two things, you either dump or hodl and with the two choices comes a price,  you might dump and the token get pump and as well hodl and the coin gets dump.....

The bottom line is being contented with with whatever choice you make in this space as it can go either way

This is depend on you. There are many campaigns posted here and thats good in my opinion. But the reality of scam and hoax project lies in that section. No one can actually say that projects there are all scam and doing bounty from that section isnt full stupidity. I did some campaign and earned from it. Yes the time is too long but thats how altcoin bounty works.


You can wait for the bull run to come but dont wait for that project to pump. I think the project has been used up or already been cash by the developers. The team isnt active anymore and no update since then. Its seems like they just used the people for marketing to pump their token.

Apparently, that is the common situation we have here,

Newly launched projects are most likely be good only for short term, in the long run, the price of their altcoins end up losing its value. And it is true that it is better not to hold the token for long term since most of the time their value decreases unexpectedly.

It is better to find a suitable investment like popular altcoins in the market than to hold the bounty token waiting for the bull run.

You sold 4,500,000 tokens for 200$ means the project is a crappy one with too much max supply, I earned 4,900,000 from a bounty in 2018 and I sold in January 2020 for 3,500$, I was able to earned that much because limited hunters joined the bounty, here is a piece of advice, quality matters most in bounty projects and make sure you get your hands on many tokens

That's great you can get worth of $200 from 1 bounty. Since i join bounty i only get $25 from 1 project and i think this is difficult.
And this mean Bounty Hunters must think smart and carefull to do a Bounty and find a good project.

One thing I tell people most times which I also ensure in doing is filtering projects out to know which really do worth it. Because even at the end a good project might end up not bounty hunters when due or team.now implementing new rules at then end of the campaign mainly on distribution plans which is unfair. As a bounty hunter holding your token after distribution is mainly ones opinion because of past experiences which is why I engage in selling off about 60% of my bounty token after getting it and keep the remaining 40% for future purpose, other times when I get a token which is trading at a very low price from it's ATH price, I tends to keep all till it rise a little. We all know the cryptocurrency market is a volatile one and with that you can't always have your cake the way you like it.

this has been my decision last time. to hold on to projects that did well during sales and marketing. My opinion, Verasity remains the only outstanding token that did a bounty and are still focus with marketing and hard work in promoting their token. currently listed in over 4 TOP TIER exchange. (binance-dex, bittex, kucoin, hitbtc) A sign of hard work and dedication by the team. The rest project are just messing around. playing with the funds in their account.

We cant blame those people who expect to much in bounty becuase some of them experience a good profit from it. Also not all bounty is messing around because there is still some bounty is really worth it. To know the good bounty find a dedicated team or find a bounty that have high rank team there is possibility its worth it. Dont expect to much because not all the time can give you what you want to happen but sometimes its failure.

The manner in which you put in more endeavors is the thing that decides the result of what you get, bounties of today requires heaps of exertion and in the event that you aren't prepared for this you ought to stop, Many phony undertakings will appear without a doubt yet on the off chance that you got your recognizing aptitudes you can undoubtedly maintain a strategic distance from the terrible ventures

I can't disagree with that there are bounty hunters that do not even read the project's whitepaper, they join every bounty even if it is suspicious and complain later, not following rules and complain of not getting paid, but we can't deny the fact that bounty campaigns now are not really worth it unless it is already listed with decent volume or the payment is in ETH or BTC, the majority are just not good I guess there are few good ones but the participants are too many so you will get small amount of shares.

I remember, in 2018, when the bear run comes and lasted for a long time, bounty hunters weren't getting their payments, but once they get their rewards they dumped it hardly. CountingHouse bounty participants earned huge tokens from the bounty projects, many people sold their CHT at a low price. I saw people sold their 4-5k coins for 3-4 Ethereum, but at the beginning of 2019, those 5-6K CHT coins were 90-100 ETH  worthy, can you believe it? Therefore in 2019, Colletrix bounty token price was very high, 50K CIPX coin is worth of 250$, many people hold it as they have a  great partnership, now those 50K coins are 0.4$ worth. So, you never know which coin will do better in future and which will go in vain. So, better sell your token when you need money, don't be greedy with your bounty payment, rather keep working hard!

That's right that is one of the common errors or mistakes that the bounty hunters have been doing lately they are nor even reading the whitepaper of the project and if the project will be scam or else they will not paid they will complaint but in the first place they do not do their part which is the reading of the whitepapers  that may help them to understand what the project is all about. Another tip if you will find a bounty campaign look for the campaign that is the mode of payment will be through bitcoin or ethereum because they are the one seems legit

I really agree with your point. Holding bounty token is a horrible idea nowadays. Though not all the coins are worthless to hold. I would recommend starting trading with your bounty payments so you will know when to sell and when to buy back to make a profit again. Just selling or holding bounty token not a good decision anymore. Because you don't know which coin will go high and which will die in future. So, don't expect too much, keep buying and selling your bounty tokens and never stop hunting.

Right, I don't expect too much about the project anymore because this not 2017 were bounty campaigns was profitable. Nowadays most of the projects can't survive for long this will result the down price of the token until it will die.

Yes, compared on the year 2017 that almost all of the bounty campaign are profitable and legit also they are more good compare to this situation right now but we are still seeing some people who are getting profit also on the bounty campaigns right now but compated to the year of 2017 this is not as high compared to that year. But the most important thing is they are still earning in the bounty campaigns but we still need to be picky on what bounty campaigns we are going to join.

Yes you are spot on
If we start listing names of those fraud projects who refused to pay bounty hunters, night will fall.
From Digitalbits, down to bitagro and many more like that.

Its just better to do concrete research and promote few projects in a year and earn. Than promote many and get nothing.

Yes, i never agree bounty token is totally free earning, you have to remember about we're wasting how much times in everyday.
Success is very rare in ICO projects. Even a successful projects will give you payment, no guarantee you get from anywhere, neither team and bounty managers. Bounties hype era gone in 2017. I do not expect i will rich in one or several projects.

Sad truth to accept, lots of projects are just scamming around and there's no assurance anymore that it will bring benefits when you receive your shares. Holding and waiting is no longer an option those who already get the chance to sell their assets are quickly into dumping their coins.

Absolutely, do not just join in some bounty or signature campaign without knowing important information about that particular project because it might be a fraud or a scam campaign. All information you need to know can be seen on their whitepaper or on their website including the roadmap which states their plan every year or month. You can actually notice if that is possible to happen or not.

This is just because the market is not good just like that year you have said. We all know that it really kicks the highest amount that year and it could actually happen again anytime soon since we do not know when because it is unpredictable. The nature of cryptocurrency is its volatility making the value changing time by time. This time the market is recovering and we are all hoping that bull run will happen again.

Yes this time is very different from 2017 where bounty campaigns are 100% profitable but people needs money so they are still trying their luck in joining bounties to earn some profit i think those people are the ones that is trying or grabbing every opportunity that he can take but those people needs to be careful for a ton of bounty campaigns are just scam thats why it is rare to find good bounty and its rare to find people who still think bounty is profitable.

Expectations that are too high are often disappointing when they don't match reality. So, I tend to choose bounties with weekly payments that give BTC and ETH rewards. But campaigns with such a model are very rare, it takes struggle and harder efforts to join, and of course, it takes luck too. One important thing, do not easily give up friends, there are still many legit projects and give rewards that are comparable to our hard work if it scams then considers it a risk that must be accepted.

As we bounty hunters please don't expect because many projects are scam some pay you but the price there coins are dead or some didn't pay anything always promising you can get. But I still join bounty because I know in one time I do join in a good project. Always positive and you have opportunity to join then go.

Well, upon getting engage into any bounty project, it is normal for us to expect that we will be obtaining income or profit from the works we have done which commonly talks about project promotion. But upon expecting the best, we must also expect the unexpected or simply means that expect that anytime something can go wrong. So better control our expectations and do not expect that much becaue fail projects or low paying projects are just normal. Better seek for other bounty after the bounty you have get into because getting into bounty can provide us opportunity of earning money. We must equally balance our expectations about bounties so that if ever the unexpected things happen, we will not get too disappointed because we have already expected that something like that is impossible to happen.

It is not about that in 2017 bounties were profitable, but about investors that were naive during cryptocurrency boom. They are the one who allowed bounty campaign to raise huge funds and pay huge amounts to bounty hunters.

Now that the market has started to show positive dynamics, I see how old projects that launched bounty campaigns in 2018 begin to bring very good profits to those people who took part. and I think that a very good time for bounty hunters will come soon

but now there is a very good opportunity to trade these tokens that you receive in the bounty campaign. as a rule, the volatility of tokens after they fall + -10 or 15 percent per day. you can very often double or triple the number of tokens which you received in just a few weeks

Yes, I have the same feeling, a good time will come again in the bounties. 2018 was the bearish year except for the Q1! A very few projects succeed that year, and most of the time bounty hunters got deceived by the project owners! So, I don't think many people hold their 2018's earned token to get profit in 2020! I hope this year many good projects will come and hit the floor hard!

Maybe we should start by even predicting how much token is getting listed this day. More than 80% of the token is not getting listed even when they conduct IEO while many turns to scam before being listed. Also if you check well, most bounty campaigns do not allocate a large amount of money for the campaign like before. hardly will you see campaign willing to give $500k and this means that you already know that the token you will receive might not worth more even before it is being listed. I participated in GUIDE token sales listed on livecoin. the token I got worth less than $5 now

for the altcoin project campaign, most do not pay and do not allocate for campaigns with large funds. most of those who allocate with large funds will end up scam. although not all now we don't see it for the present. lucky for those who can work and get BTC payments.

To a greater extent you're right, of course, it's difficult enough to determine the legitimacy of altokoin today, so those who decide to take a risk and invest money in the chosen coin - carefully analyzes the company from and to, up to rereading the whitepaper and checking the various licenses that the company can specify to better protect their investments.

Yeah, that's really true . You spoke on top fo very important topic. I'm also one of these bounty hunter. Most of the coin bounty that we have earned from
earning more profit due to the holding of coins, the later rate is not available.

You have discussed very important issues , I have been parting with the bounty program for a while and the coins earned from them the market listings , and it seems that the first price of rate coins are saved . I'd make a good profit.

Why do bounty hunters complain? We all know that there is no certainty on what we do right now in every ICO. Even we are supporting a good project, there is no assurance that investors will support them too. The best way is to support projects you know that is worth supporting. If it is not that successful, then we will try to support other good projects.

Do not support projects solely because of money/profit. Good projects will rectify Cryptocurrency's reputation. That will give us more stable and more profit in the future.

Exactly, before joining any campaign the company seems to be very interesting later, after crowd sale we are going to see their real behaviour. If a company is not successful, we have to find another best company in order to start working. In crypto bounty, there is no guarantee whether we are going to make money or not.

Do you realized after you joined on the bounty but in the end the project don't pay you or the project went failed, you already lost so much time because if that. Even though you joined on other altcoin bounty, it's still doesn't mean you will get paid in the end. The right choice is, as a bounty hunter, don't join in altcoin bounty

For me, i strongly believe that as a hardworking bounty hunter, its not all about prevailing.
There must be a strong need to have a concrete case about a project before joining their bounty.

IF as a bounty hunter, you are able to join 10 solid projects, i can assure that 4 will pay immediately, 3 will postpone payment, while others will refuse to pay.
It happens, but reduce your risk taking when joining bounties, and you will be fine.

That bolded thing is one of the issues, there are no many good projects on the market.  Due fact that 99% of crypto projects are garbage, many bounty hunters mindlessly join almost every bounty campaign, in hope that few out of hundreds will pay off. I don't see them as "hardworking bounty hunters" at all, I see them as part of the problem. They don't do due diligence at all, they don't check what they support, and does that project makes any sense at all, and we end with bunch of shit projects being promoted left and right. And when that project fails, then we see bounty hunters complain.

In my opinion, only campaign worth joining is signature campaign, and only if it's managed by respectable manager. Everything else is in 99% of the cases pure waste of time. So all of those that think of themselves as hardworking, increase your post quality and join some sig campaign. On top of money you will make, you will pollute crypto space less.

I agree with you, the most attractive now are signature campaign with weekly payment in bitcoins. But there are not many such programs, and those that are present have increased requirements for participants. In these programs, we see that bitcoin is Escrow on the account and therefore there are no problems with payment.

maybe I have a different perception with the OP about the words above. . however as bounty hunters they take the time to be able to provide promotions through social media, they are entitled to get a job with the time they provide. although the results may not be in accordance with the perceptions of bounty hunters, it is normal for them to issue and give opinions. it's wrong to bounty hunter if you expect too many tokens given to be held long and ultimately unprofitable.

I know it will sound like a horrible idea and nobody would ever get together for something like this. But how about a "bounty hunter union"?

It is in a way that we will have members who will work hard to promote any project as long as they are paid properly, we will start off with finding people who are actually good bounty hunters, get them together and showcase what we can do just once, when you have tens of people even maybe over hundred people who are willing to all wear your signature, share your tweets, flood the telegram and discord channels, basically do everything that is amazing for you, all other projects will realize this union is good. After that we can start to ask for real money instead of fake money because projects will realize paying that union bitcoin is worth it since it will work amazingly.

What's wrong with being optimistic that we get paid more, the work is free, we also work with the mind and time spent boosting a project to get a good rating, with what is optimal it will give enthusiasm for creativity. Never try to analyze a previous project before

Though I don’t really like the idea of selling your tokens and dumping the coins immediately, but you still you have got to do that sometimes, because if you don’t you’re going to be the one who will be losing. Sometimes I don’t waste time with holding tokens and not really because I want to sell the tokens, but because I’m not the type of person that likes holding lots of different coins. I love to arrange my coins and hold particular coins and know the amount it’s worth.

I don’t really like it when I open my wallet and there are lots of strange coins and all that. And true, bounty hunters shouldn’t be expecting to make a lot of money from a bounty campaign, sometimes it’s based on luck, if the campaign has a lot of people participating you might not make much.

No one is working for free here, you help promote and you get paid, it's simple as that, whatever the reward may worth either big or small it's all free work

One thing you can look at when joining bounty projects is the project max supply and how much tokens you can get your hands on, the higher tokens you get the better $$$$ you will make, in bounties quantities matters

Of course you're right, in fact many people can now make profitable offers and offer generous programs, but fewer and fewer people throw themselves at such programs for no reason, only after careful checking can they enter the project and try to get their bonus so as not to waste their time.

One way or another, you still have to consider each project in a tight and meticulously evaluate all the information that the Bounty company provides.  I believe that the main thing is not participation in a particular project, namely, what this project offers for society and what value the coins of this project will have, not only after listing, but also in the future.  At least, most of all my coins received in the Bounty companies, I left for long-term storage Until better times in the cryptocurrency market.  It is possible that all of these minimum rewards that the Bounty Hunter receives today may increase hundreds or a thousand times in the future.  Yes, I'm a big optimist.  ;)

If you take into account the trend, then you can understand when you need to sell a token.

The key of getting profit from bounties are just sell your tokens quickly after it hits the exchange. Otherwise, you will get nothing from your bounty tasks. It's really sad to see that compared to the bounties on 2017 where the price was still okay even it got dumped for few weeks. The ignorance of the team which makes this thing happened.

Yes, but we also have to look at the duration of the project, if the duration is long and the maximum supply is small, then the hunters will be disadvantaged in time, but if the maximum supply is large and the project duration is long, I think it does not matter, because the reward we get will be balanced.

In following the project the prize should not be too dreamed to get a big result because the value offered at the time the project is going far cheaper compared when we get the result of the project even we can not sell Tokens that we get because the price is very low, so if you follow the project pray for only results that you get according to the time we have spent.

I think it's natural that bounty hunters hope for projects that are done because bounty hunters use their time and work. But indeed the conditions now are not like in 2017 where many bounty hunters get fairly large results

Well.. I was active here during 2017, and I was fortunate enough to grab some good rewards from various bounty campaigns. Back then, some of the signature campaigns paid me as much as $1,000 for just 4 weeks, while even the social media bounties had an average payout rate of ~$100 per campaign. Those days are long gone.. and my advice is to look for some other avenue to collect cryptocurrency and move on.

As a bounty hunter, I spend some of my time and effort in doing works in bounties and I can say that it is kinda hard to comply with 10 posts each week doing signature campaign. I am doing my best (although it is not enough) to create a constructive posts as much as possible to comply with the rules of the bounties I join (take note that english is not my first language). I am not expecting too much in those bounties I join, but as a bounty hunter, some decent amount of payment is enough for those time and effort we exerted, but unfortunately, not all campaigns can pay and comply with that expectations especially if those campaigns are not legit to start with. :(

If you want have good profits from bounty then you must check the token when it is going to be listed from time to time so you would be able get a good price when you sell it but if you don't well all you can do is HOPE that the token price bounce back or even reach higher to what it's projected price to be.

Gold times of Bounty hunters are gone

yes, but research does not necessarily ensure that the project will succeed.
so participating in many projects, even if this is a good way, even if it has the risk of being the project will be a scam, because you follow as much as any project that comes out, so the chances will be the same 50:50, except in case you are really unlucky.

I understand your position. I must confess that I've been guilty of expecting too much from projects, only to get my hopes dashed. I participated in WPP bounty and after the tokens was distributed, the value of my tokens was worth over $500, I was expecting the value to go much higher as that was what must persons were saying on their telegram group. I was stupid to buy that. As we speak now, the value is less than $19, I can't even dump it. I just left it on my wallet, waiting for a miracle.

Of course, no one is insured against the results of projects, but in this respect, bounty projects are much more attractive, because there you can only invest time and not get anything in return, but even in this case, time is also a resource that should be used wisely.

The best way to get good profit from bounties is to sell quickly once trading starts, this way you will get good reward and you can buy back when the price goes down

Of course, it is still necessary to guess with the moment, and have time to sell at the best rate, in this respect it is profitable to have connections with the admins, do you think this happens?

Indeed that is what is obtainable often times, truth is most time when a bounty hunter promotes a project, instead of selling to take the reward for their effort, they would want to hold or complain  about the token price being dumped and at the end they regret not selling because the token price has dumped more even though it might rise in the future.

You look at the root, very reasonable words. For today, if you don't think about it, the investment looks more like a game, whether it's an investment of your time or personal money, I would like people to think more before they start doing something, rather than chasing beautiful promises, to start with a little check of what's written...

Sometimes dumps happen so fast that you won't be able to get a good price. When the floodgates open everyone will want to do the same thing.
If you miss that ppoint and see the coin is looking like it's oversold already it could be a good idea to wait and see if it recovers.

Not all coins are total shitcoins that keep dumping to 0 and if you happened to hold that worst shitcoin you've screwed up by joining the bounty, not by not being the first to sell.

the most important thing now is to have time to sell the token immediately after listing on the exchange. no matter how good a project is, it still loses its price a huge number of times. this is a big problem but it is also a great opportunity to increase the number of tokens in your portfolio by 10-20 times if you manage to sell these coins very fast

You are right, but some people manage and can foresee whether a token will be able to meet the expectations of users in the future, those who have invested in the project and give good growth on the stock exchanges, this art.

I do not believe that gold times are gone, i rather term it that an opportunity was lost and there will be more opportunities.

Bounty Hunting is best enjoyed when its a side job done on your leisures, this helps you to screen, scrutinize, examine and choose Bounties to join.

If you are a full timer Bounty hunter, then you are wrong because until you learn patience and patience, you could get to work for several unpaid projects.

Don't expect too much from Bounty tokens, but make most of your participation by learning and applying knowledge

But if you are creating the chart about how much successful project and that will be very small. There was no insurance by participated in the bounty campaign and what will give you more guarantee is how good your analyzation to the project that you are interested to participate in the campaign. This is not something that can be done easily. So many hunters are always getting trapped.

right, because not all altcoin is shitcoin, so there are still many people who support IEO, like me. it's just that, don't expect too much, even though sometimes there is volume, however, the price is not in accordance with the initial price. however, we deserve to try it. the thing to guard is you know the development of the coin do you know the right time to sell it.

There's always a season for everything and it might not the beat time for bounty hunting. However, I still have my hopes for bounty hunting and I believe that we will gain a good profit through it again in time. Bounty hunting is like a trial and error where there's no guarantee that we could get paid with good value of tokens. We shouldn't expect too much so we'll never feel disappointed in the end.

I would say that 90% of bounty hunters will surely dump their tokens once its being already listed or traded on an exchange. Securing out their profits or pay without minding on projects support for long term.
Only a few or a bit rare for someone to hold up for too long because they do believe into the potential.Its hard to tell nowadays which one is good or not yet most of them do end up on becoming a shit coin.
Even as of today where getting listed on an exchange is already a 50-50 chance or still questionable thats why i dont see a point or reason for still hanging out or wasting up their time on bounty campaigns.

Whenever you enter a certain bounty campaign, you should already know the risk you may face since there's no certainty of gaining much reward after the project. As a bounty hunter, it is our responsibility to pick the best campaign at the moment so that we won't end up wasting our time on something that would fly out and leave the project without giving the bounty hunters the income they deserve. Actually, nowadays, it is very rare to see successful bounty campaigns, some end up having low price tokens while some leaves without giving anything to the bounty hunters who exerted much effort to reach the end of the project. So make sure you read everything and you check the team's background before joining one.

I guess if I remember well all Binance IEO coins were pumped, so it was very profitable to invest and sell when price peaked. 

If bounty hunters are too scared of these outcomes thy should stick with bounty projects that are listed and trading with good volume already, presently blockburn bounty is trading on exchanges, this type of project will find it easy to pay participants because they always have low allocation

Bounty managers have to respect us, we don´t want to dump the project, but most of us is doing it to take a profit because we already know how most projects end. We were true believers in 2017, but when we look today on our portfolio we can only cry that we were blind.

You are right, i think project devs just like to shift the blame to bounty hunters.

Several projects have crashed in price and development even without paying Bounty hunters and likewise harmony did well even after Bounty distribution.

The basis i belive is that, good projects with good intents will always pay for job well done

we must respect each other, bounty manager always do the best for us to get our reward.and if we dumped reward in market due some reason there is no correlation with them. its pure our decision based on experience how the new projects will die. most of us want to sell reward earlier before dumped by another hunter.

The death of a project does not depend on Bounty hunters dumping or selling but on the project.

Doing the right things are all that matters, most projects who refuses to send Bounty rewards ends up worthless in the long run.

Tokoin paid smoothly for few months, then distribution wss spreadsheet across 12 month, toko has retraced

Bounty days are gone, most of the available projects are just scam without any intention to build and product. The highest gamble in the crypto space now is to engage in bounties, it is either here nor there. It is no longer a certainty.

I don't agree that it's the highest gamble in crypto.

The highest risk in crypto is by investing if you don't know what you're doing. This happens occasionally and many are complaining whenever they see the market is not doing good. Engaging in bounties is your option, if you think that it's a high gamble to you.

You don't waste time there.

Not really. There are still good campaigns that have good compensation. Set aside those campaign from the btc paid signature, there are still some good altcoin campaign like what you are wearing right now. Bounty is indeed profitable before and comparing by now is really not a much but I can still say that there are many available you just need to pick and search which is which.

This time it's still very profitable to invest in binance IEO. but that depends the hype of the project. wazis brings a lot of profit to the investors and it's still traded above the ico price right now. I would say if this is still profitable as long as you know about when the time to sell your coin. Just never try to hodl ieo coin for long term or we will get a huge loss.

do not let what you do be in vain, do not expect altcoin will continue to grow but use your logic if it is worth the results of your efforts so do not hesitate to sell it.
every Hunter bounty has its own standards.

i think, I only took a clear project after I read on the website and whitepaper, if that is clear and good, I will follow the campaign of the project

Maybe they are expecting too much because in old times, bounty campaigns are so profitable as in. I knew some friends, they manage to build their small house through this. Buy anyway, yes it is kinda hard this time to earn big in bounties again. Another, I think it would be better for bounty hunter to research more about the coin if it is worth holding or better to sell it immediately. Of course it price will drop during the distribution because their is low demand for it. But it can drop more if it is a bad coin.

3 years ago, people really earned a lot of money participating in bounty campaigns. people received a few bitcoins for participating in the campaign. My friend earned about $ 8,000 in the Storiqa bounty campaign. 8 thousand dollars for one video .. when I heard this I laughed very long time.

It is true, after my signature campaign end I would start thinking if I continue with my work or not.
The rewards are not motivated, many people spend a lot of time and they are on 20USD earnings per month on average.

(Thanks to QDAO, I am earning pretty nice sum of money in a real stable coin, what is pretty good in time of bear market.)

The main point must be to sell our coins at the early pump and this phase is always put our coins to touch the peak price. The hunters must not expect too much from the coin and they must think to decrease their risk by holding the coins. I have been selling my tokens when reached peak price and buy that again when it's cheap.

It is true that it is not right to expect too much.It is true that it is not right to expect too much. There are many hunters who are making a living by doing this digital marketing.For that, it has to be taken seriously. Hunter Deer is deceived everywhere.

Agreed most campaign nowadays arent trusted and worth it do especially those who are saying huge budget. Most campaign are like this and rated the price of the tokens to their ico price which isnt the exact value since they arent listed on exchange yet. Anyway, I like the QDAO but that campaign only benefited high ranks but for lower rank in signature not that big.

As a bounty hunter, I don't expect that much. What I do is do my own research for good project then I will do my best to support that project. Whatever the outcome is I will just accept it. For every project there are failures and success. What we should all do isntondo our best and don't expect that much. If the project fails then we move on. Try another one better project next time. We will learn along the way. No wasted time.

Even if you are doing bounty for a good project, there is a real chance that you may not receive a reward for your time and effort. The market conditions are not that conductive for new projects and ever since 2019 we have witnessed many newer projects failing despite having good credentials. Do bounties without any expectation and understanding the risk, and you may not get disappointed.

It doesn't matter what project you are joining because even the project looks very legit still there is a chance of being scammed,we have been there for many times being a bounty hunter and yes even good project fails but at least pay the participants even the token has no value because that will prove how truthful the management to their word that they will be paying the participants according to their jobs ,let them have what they own and that is enough to be called not scammer

CYFM must have gigantic max supply for 4.5 million tokens to worth only 200$, I think looking at max supply is before promoting a bounty project is a must too, if max supply is way too much there will be a problem in value

in what i see most longing for big profit,but if you are one of bounty hunters you will accept the disappointment because you will not always earn it too much whether you like it or not you need to participate for example the bitcoin has dropped we can't predict when if will rise again ,you should increase your effort and help even if it is not profitable,joining bounties is same as trading or investing and this campaign program are still profitable.

I remembered Bounty0x being featured in bounty hunting projects. Sadly they're pretty dead now when I recently checked their website.

not only bounty0x that dead now, many site that not active anymore to operate bounty management. at the past its very easy when we joining in bounty site, no need to report and our work automaticly will calculated. but unfortunately most of them have low value when distributed to wallet.

It can be said that it is very difficult to now find projects that are really good (both in terms of quality and in terms of price), I would advise not to focus too much on hunting. At least you can use other alternatives to get income, for example by trading. Try to develop your abilities, even though all of that is not easy, but if taken seriously it will produce results.

You will be with Emirex for a long time. Despite round 2 is over and everything is already distributed to Emirex exchange account (but locked so far), I have a feeling that there will one more round. And that is why: tokens will be unlocked with ieo and. Ieo will end when they reach 10m hardcap, but it is unknown how much is collected atm.

We have the same experience about CYFM and the worst thing is I bought again from etherflyer, bad analysis because expect too much. Actually expectation must depend realistic target but people always replace imagination into their target plan. That's why have knowledge and sharing partner really important. As suggestion take time to relax, leave market for a day and enjoy the profit you get.

I am learning not to hold tokens, my wallet is full of shit, I used to think and ask myself, which project have survived the last 2years? Still dev blame hunters for dumping there tokens, while most if us become holders and still the project dies without hunters dumping. Anyway, hunters are beginning to stop holding till they are sure the project will survive at long run.

I'm not agree to earn huge money in one project. My 129 USD token is now 2 USD and 50 USD token is now only few cents. That's great some people are also here same thought. But this dump only because I was expected so much in one project and I hold it for long time, I just waited for at least ICO price.

Bounty hunters have lost their self respect due to some scammers pretending to be hunters and ditch the token, enrol with alt accounts, fakes their profile by adding thier ETH address for a random users, these are the reason why Bounty hunters are used to cover their failure by development team. I would suggest hunters not to behave like slaves and act responsibly, if a project is good then the dumping of tokens will not be a big deal for them as it will survive.

I think it is not enough to blame and fault bounty hunters, and leaving no review towards team devs.
There are several projects, who enrol bounty hunters and refuse to pay, some request for kyc and then refuse to pay,

Digitalbits, is asking for another round of kyc, even after close to a year delay.
Don't expect too much, but don't accept less.

thats why you need to fish out deserving bounties.

Correct, if the project is for real the developing team behind are willing to take everything and let those dumpers to dump their holdings  and buy
it back to make sure that the value will not be damage, real developers have it's long term plans they'll never be afraid if how the hunters will act
after receiving their rewards.

Its not all about just holding tokens, but also hodling tokens when it is right.
How do you do that ? You hodl until you are in the position to take profits; every altcoins leaves a chance to take profit, one way or the other.
