The altcoin bounty hunters are passing a very hard time, no doubt. We had a very few good bounty campaigns! After Cartesi, I am still finding another good bounty to do hard.

The number of bounty campaign is very less now, maybe this is the reason for that people are doing shit bounties, which is absolutely not a good decision! I want to mention those projects that look shit in my eyes for valid reasons. As we can proudly share and spread good bounties, so, I believe I can mention those shit bounties name too. If you have a different opinion, I respect that, and you may continue those bounties!

Hitmex, Ozcar, Bright nuclear, Ripple Decentralized bounties are pure shit. Everything in these projects is fake or lies.


1. Hitmex has no good team, by reading their whitepaper I felt a crypto kid wrote that! Their exchange volume is an absolute fake, to be honest, I did not find a single good thing in this project that can impress me to do it. Bounty hunter, read their whitepaper, so, you can relate it.

2. Bright Nuclear Bounty:
Maybe they are better in photoshop, so, they designed a photo to create a hype that they are gonna list in many top exchanges like OKEx, Lbank, Hotbit and so on. Okay, just visit their website, you will realize how shit this project is, the website interface is the same type as the Hitmex whitepaper, I mean a kid developer made that website!

3. Ozcar:
6 Million USD worthy bounty campaign, an ICO project that has zero vision. You don't believe me? Visit their website and read those words, please! You will realize that! They don't have any potential partner, advisor! It seems they bought a crypto theme and built the website! They attached a photo in the website that Ozcar has been covered by the Yahoo, Forbes and other top media platform. I asked to provide the link, not a photo. You know what, they failed to provide those!

4. Ripple Decentralized:
Have you remembered about ETCV, Ethereum Vision bounty last year? A fake and scam attempted were taken by the scammer. There is no connection between Ripple and Ripple decentralized too. Rather this Ripple decentralized bounty is just not only shit, rather a scam. So, stop doing this from right now.

However, If you need good bounties suggestion, see this thread,
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5228629.msg53916917#msg53916917

Do your own research and kindly reply in this thread. Good Luck to everyone!

Unfortunately many hunters don't share your views because those project you mentioned above are already having bounty participants applying, so you see this type of project will always have there way because some people don't listen or care to do a little digging before joining this bounties.

Most people do not bother to do some research and due diligence before promoting a new project and that is a big reason why there have been so many scams in this sector because they can get free promotion, raise funds and disappear, i think it is high time that we start to pick and choose projects seriously so that we promote only real and legit projects.

I exclude the signature paid because the escrow system, the campaign good, because they paid with a fixed rate, went other bounty paid with alt token/coins who dont have a rate.

However, the conclusion of choosing the project "why the reason this bounty was good" was no guarantee at all. The @OP explained why the project its good just because of the bounty hunter it's reputable, not every bounty with reputable bounty manager its success it's just for helping due diligence process.

My signature campaign is ending a week and I really decided about joining these campaigns because they seem legit at the first sight. Thank you for your deeper analysis, you should receive merit for it, sorry I don´t have any, otherwise I would have sent for a great work!

I have diffrent opionion, Hitmex unlike others provide real and working exchange solutions, you can immediately sell Hitmex tokens after you receive it from the campaign so it only brings a trust into this campaign and exchange. Which campaign is giving tradeable tokens to the community?

Hard time to find an honest bounty manager too. I did some bounty and wasted my time, bounty not paid! Terrible for all bounty hunters.

I remember doing 2 to 3 rounds of bcnex exchange bounty campaigns when they were raising funds and after the campaigns and launch of their exchange they just started complex rules to pay bounty tokens at first and then they stopped withdrawals calling for maintenance but even now when maintenance period is over for good 6 to 8 weeks now withdrawals are not paid they either remain pending or are rejected without any reason. So this was definitely one scam project with scam bounty campaigns and there were so many similar campaigns in last 2 years or so, i wish there was some police or authority who would trial and jail such fraudsters.

My friend does not even cash out his reward on that BCNEX platform.  I thought that one is a good catch but then that KYC stuff is just cover-up for their scam.  There are lots of bounty campaign that offers million dollar worth of token just to make them look enticing but in reality, they are just worthless assumption of value. It is really hard to find a good bounty now a day, even those that are marked good on that link is at 50/50 possibility of getting a good reward.

I understand your angle perfectly and i can equally relate. But clarity first, a bounty hunter should do the basic things first to avoid working for free or bad tag.

Reading whitepaper, does not mean a project is good, solid or rewarding, because till today, Iagon is refusing to develop any product and on a lifeless exchange, and funny enough bbod that was a shit bounty was incredible rewarding.

Theres an angle to this, everyone is entitled to choose what or who they work for. But there is a need to always do concrete researches.

Funnily, i am just seeing those bounties for the first time, so they are not hyped at all.

Hyped bounties at the moment is Geoma and Blockburn.

Of course because honest managers will reject scam offers and will not work for free. THese are 2 major factors that define shit campaigns. They want you to work for worthless tokens and offer the same tokens to their managers and the projecs look like scam.

If a project doesn't have a few thousand dollars for promotion it means they are broke, greedy, or both.

I working for Hitmex but it's true that i have no hope from them. :D :D I joined that because they just running there project for 1 week (which increased later, now 2 week :D :D).


This campaign gave really greedy offer for bounty hunters. I don't know that project scam or not but that was not a good quality project. They have really shit website which made me sick, childish white paper and unprofessional management.

I agree, I look at both teams' site, and check their project owner. I do not know but I don't feel comfortable investing in these two projects.  One of the reasons probably is the thought that Geoma is just taking advantage of the popularity of ETH Defi, while blockburn is delayed on their roadmap already.  It was stated that the MVP will be released this February but all I can see is an image of the game which is probably made in photoshop.

Right,some conscious mind managers avoid shit projects and even though they will go to take escrow fund if which one is legit project. Managers just ensuring for the hunters reward who guys will promoto the project. Scam projects team's will not agree to pay escrow payment before. Will can't ensure legit project will guaranteed or worth money.        

Just leave them and never think to join if you found out something fishy or untrue. There are already thousands of projects made to grab people's money. And providing bounty programs are just other ways made by them to expedite their efforts. For all bounty hunters, stay away on them! Don't waste your time promoting shit-projects. Better to spend your time with family or close friends.  :D    

This is the reason why I am sticking to btc-paying campaign. Though it is not high as with others but at least you know that they will do their duty every week. I had done several alt sig campaigns before and only few of them really got in the exchange. Aside from that, you will receive your token share, months and months after the campaign, as most of them are delayed in distribution. And after that, you have no assurance if they will ever hit in the exchange. That's the dilemma in most token-paying campaigns.

Right, I still remember what the previous campaign manager of yours (Hhampuz) said, and it is like this, "why everyone is risking on joining bounties when their is a big risk involved, at least in btc paying campaign, you are assured of getting paid every week,". Something to that effect, it struck on my mind.

I stopped participating into altcoins bounties as I've been scammed to many times in order to believe anyone else anymore. If the team can provide all the details that they have the necessary resources to pay the hunters, then I'm sure some of the old good hunters will re-join altcoins bounties but until this happens I doubt it.

Better try and find a bounty on the Economy/Services thread sections but you must have patience and act quick when a new one comes alive.

Even in the shittiest bounty project, there will be those who will take part in it. Because many people are simply lazy and do not conduct the necessary research and work in vain.

Our decisions to be part of each bounty is just like a game of chance which no one would ever knew the outcomes for everything. Shit bounties of whatever they call it, that doesn't make sense at all, because even those promising will fail, so there's no assurance in crypto but being smart is the best strategy to do.

It is not about being lazy for not doing research. A bounty that has a huge reward will simply attract bounty hunters to be listed and participate in the campaign ( and just like you are doing by now). Yes, it is really hard to find legit one that is why they just come into participating bounties with hoping for a piece of luck and hoping for a good result. And even we know that this project is run by known and reputable Bounty Manager but still, we can't assured that it will work find especially when the funds aren't escrowed yet by someone else.

Ozcar most looks like a joke, with one of his team's profile pictures edited unprofessionally.  They argue that at that time the website was still under development.  Unfortunately, although there were already several members of the money providing information that the project was less promising, many ignored it, and there were still bounty participants who registered.  Come on friend ... don't waste your hard work.  do an analysis first, dwyor.

You shared suggestion list which one have best bounty campaign still now. Specially Sheng World which one partnership with pundix but problem is probit exchange for IEO. But hitmex or Ozcar isn't good enough for me. Cartesi was one of my favorite coin and I missed this project.

A lot of bounty campaigns mentions big numbers to attract  but in reality the rewards aren't that good since the ico price of these tokens doesn't equate to the trading price.

On another note this thread should be moved to the altcoin service discussion since the topic is more on the campaign side rather than the tokens.

Shit bounty means shit project as the reward solely rely on the tokens/coins they will receive after the bounty period.
I am not pretty aware of this projects as I have not been following bounties for awhile since I believe they are not profitable as before, so thanks for sharing and we also have to listen to other people's opinion especially those who are already in the campaign.

No one is forcing anyone to join in these and there are still people looking to join all these shitty projects and promote them without even having a clue whether you are dealing with a real business or a phony looking to make quick money. If you cannot find a solution for that then there is no solution in weeding out shit bounties and projects.

Hunters are still do bounties because they wont to lose an opportunity gain money, I mean looking for a legit isn't easy so they think to join all the bounties so even not all the bounties project paid them with good amount atleast there are still earn some.
Another reason is bounties or campaign that paid with BTC is not many, so hard to get in on that campaign.
Do bounties like gamble currently.

actually not just what you wrote, but there are many more fake bounties that you haven't mentioned, because I'm one of them who became a victim. As a bounty participant, I followed from the beginning of 2108 until the beginning of 2020, no one has paid at all. in addition there are also those who have already paid but the tokens have not been listed. Most of them are schemes, the reason is that the project money or funds are taken away so that the project ends up dead and abandoned.

I think some of these bounty are still in progress and based on your reasoning somehow I can feel the hoax on their project as Ive seen their site. Hitmex is off the chart for now, since they have some exchange that are working. Maybe we can say that this is some like other exchanges. But I am quite fascinate how many supporters they have as Ive seen signature eveywhere in the forum. Regarding the other two, most likely a new project which is a hype so we shouldnt let our guard down and watched them.

Its not new, some hunters are just looking for potential income they can get if they participate in the campaign. The allocated rewards are their only concern and not the authenticity of the project.

Looking for a good bounty nowadays are a bit hard even you conduct a research but there's always a way to spot it by exerting an effort to check the factors to consider before joining.

I believe that there are bunch of bounty campaigns and only few are promising and legit, some are scams and no concrete vision. I herd about ozcar bounty camaign that the team is faking their members and they are about scammers. So we should be careful first on joining bounty campaigns.

What is mention in this thread are really good projects. I am glad to be part of couple of them. It's always better to choose only projects promoted by reputed bounty managers. Two great names are, bublec and masulum.their projects are always trustworthy to promote.

Most likely the bounty hunter who only signed up only saw that the allocation was large, so their income would be large without thinking about the projects he was promoting could be scam or not have clarity. Even though the previous month there were many legit bounties, but there were only a few participants because the bounty allocation that was offered was not large.

indeed many are trapped by the allocation of large prizes so that they faithfully follow the rules that have been made. this is where we have to be able to analyze carefully. but there are also projects that have been listed on the coin market cap to provide bounties with a small allocation, and many participants, because maybe they are looking for projects that have many opportunities to pay, even though a little

Thanks for giving us information about this, at the last of your post there's a link to a safe bounty I thank you as well for that however some of the projects on the market today even though they are not handled by a great manager is still great and some of them are handled by their team itself.

I also been part of the bounty before and before I only join bounties with a known manager and some of those projects are ended up as a failure I think the best thing to be part of a great and safe bounty is by researching and analyzing the project itself but if you mean of safe such as allocating the bounties to participants an escrow as well as the known project manager will do the work.

Please add ripple decentralized on the list, it's definitely another fake project looking forward to scam people who know nothing in this space, lack of good research still makes many promoting these projects

 https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5229448.0

I've done my research on the three projects listed by OP I can say they aren't worth your time, HITmex would have been better if there is enough trading volume and liquidity or listed on other exchanges, do your own research

there are many choices like what gold storage given to thier participants .
Its tradable already in thier own exchange there are many other option but you need to wait when the bounty is finish before you are able to sell the tokens in thier exchange .

Actually it's very difficult to ensure that the bounty is scam or not, after going through the white paper, team members everything I got scammed for a bounty project as well. Scam projects have unrealistic goals I don't even want to blame the bounty managers because even they are paid, In most cases the organizer pay the tokens to the investors but they won't pay for those hardworking bounty Hunters this is the bitter truth.

I still don't have enough research about the Hitmex bounty, I have seen many high ranked people are doing that, even in telegram many hunters are wearing Hitmex avatar! Otherwise, Ripple Decentralized, Ozcar, Bright Nuclear bounty looks not good at all, maybe they all from a scammer group! Thank you for sharing this topic, I believe from now people will think again before joining in a bounty campaign!

I remember Ethereum Vision (ETV) last year and I almost fall victim to that scam because I wasn't that good at doing research then, this scammers still walks amongst us, the choices are ours to make

Doing something is better than nothing I think mostly bounty participants have this thinking in their mind anyway it's getting difficult to find some genuine bounties these days I also think that these bounties which you mentioned here are worthless with full of newbie participants who are participating without any research they're just getting attract with the huge amount and don't understand that will they getting paid for their hard work.

Unfortunately we are going to get many posts about bounties that never paid hunters this year again, I'm just surprised that bounty hunters still put aside their only tool (Research) to detect scam projects

We need this thread more, surely with some analyst that have made. Don't just make a thread and make a bad judgment against some project that held bounty campaign in this forum. But the thread need some factors like, the function of the project and also how good/bad its project. I don't think there is many bounty hunter who make an analyst against the project that he chooses, but I just thinking that they are just choosing a project without any analyst. This is why I said that we need more this thread, at least the bounty hunter aware and know what a good/bad a project.

The only tool that will lessen the chance of being scammed around this industry, doing your own research enhance your protections as many scammers
who keep creating coin and offers promising rewards, in order not to waste your time and the possibilities of being hacked, research carefully and make
sure you have the right knowledge regarding to the projects and the team that surrounds it.

I think there is some hunters who don't even read what their bounty about. They just find a new link and start working. I am also a bounty hunter and i always try to judge the project before start working. I also saw these projects just ignore them because I had a doubt that they are legit. Ridenode was one of these type of shit project. I think we can not stop it because of some ignorance bounty hunter who doesn't want to spend some time to judge a project.

they thinking working in many campaign will give high possibility to earn money although it will require much time and energy. we dont know what will happen to campaign when it finished, is it be scam project or legit. the only way to know was  work on them and do all task till we get our token. they worry if pass bounty campaign that analized as bad projects its turn out be legit campaign.

yes but of course there are still those who pay even though the value will not be according to estimates.
I also joined in a number of social media campaigns, and of course not all the bounties I participated in just considered which ones would really pay.

Lol it doesn't take me a minute to turn away from the projects listed by OP, they are all worse projects this year and there are more, if you aren't good enough at doing research you will easily become victim, do research more

however, I think almost all bounty hunters have done the research, and are careful of scammers. however, we really don't know if they want to fool us. so far, I have also gotten several scam projects, and have no value so far.
  the only way to avoid that is to keep looking for information, because there may be times when we know that the project that we support has the potential to be a scam before the project is over.

Researching requires time and effort, however it will help you on recognizing which project is worthwhile because researching allows a person to see various of information that can give you a better understanding and will help you as you build the foundation of your decision. Researching will make you analyze the things that you need to consider before making any choices. So do not forget on doing your own exploration, particularly these days that fraudsters are continually searching for a chance to take the benefits they wanted from us. We must realize how beneficial it is because at the end of the day it is much better to check everything that ending up losing your funds for nothing.

I agree, now there are very few good companies that conduct bounty companies and almost all companies that conduct bounty companies are simply scammers or they just have unnecessary technologies and most likely such companies will simply not achieve anything.

So that makes us search which project that can be a good project in the future. At this moment, it still difficult to find a good project because every project wants to prove that they are the good one, but many of them become scam in the middle of the run. I admitted that right now, we don't know how to choose the project because we don't even know if they can stay in the crypto world or not.

Even if they are aware with scammers and done their own research, have they done the proper way to know if the project is legit or fake. Most of the time bounty hunters are not aware of proper investigation and sometimes they just follow the lead of other bounty hunters without any valid reason why they participated the campaign.

Yes, and that is only for those hunters who have just joined the bounty, while for hunters who are already very experienced in seeing a bounty, that is not the case, because it is clear they made a little research first on a bounty, and then later made a decision to participate.

Agree with you, these are the most shit bounty I've ever known. How can they pay $ 6 million for bounty. And when I read their blank paper, their hardcap is $ 5 million. Really funny for the Ozcar project. Hopefully no one will waste any time with this bounty

Im inactive recently so i dont really know about recent bounties campaign. But im totally sure that $6 million reward for bounty hunter is a big lie. I think bounty hunters already smart enough to detect that scammer, also thanks for the link it really help me.

I agree with you. There are times that projects look shitty but their the ones that making a progress. And I think like by just reading their whitepaper would tell the projects is going to be scam or failure, it is till in the Team that are willing to make their project developed.

Thanks for pointing out those bounties you feel are shit,I'm sure you did some research,this year it's been loads of shit bounties to waste the effort and time of bounty hunters,only few out of these loads are genuine,it is high time bounty hunters looked into a project before participating. The bounty space is becoming too messy.

True, for this year there are only a few bounties that are genuine and worthy of being followed by hunters, because last year the time of the hunters was also wasted by bounties that are unclear and fake, so the bounty space that now looks like messy because of the work of the scammers who make bounties.

I understand where you are coming from . It's not right to advertise for shit projects but it's really difficult sometime to identify bad projects which do bounties. I remember there was a bounty or airdrop for ethereum hard fork called something like eth 2.0 , turned out to be a scam.

One thing that I don't understand is why users continue to enroll to these "shit" bounties. No matter how scammy a project may seem, they never fail to get bounty hunters to participate in the bounty campaigns. First of all, the bounty hunters need to have some self-respect, and they need to grow a backbone and boycott the scammy campaigns.

Read the documentation and consider the feasibility of the project is what hunters are doing since the scam projects became more but unfortunately, the level of design of these scammers is so high, we can't even distinguish it easily until the final result is found, a lot of people have used their precious time to advertise fraudulent and worthless bounty, you are not a rare case. The method that is more thorough and accurate to avoid these fake bounty is nonexistent, luck is probably the only base, the information we seek is sometimes unreliable

This is just the way bounty works nowadays. Most bounty hunters doesn't really care if they are participating in a shitty project as long as they can profit from it. Even if those projects are made by 12 years old, they will still take it if there's opportunity. To be fair, it's pretty difficult to identify good projects to bad ones and most bounty hunters prefer joining as many as they can so they can profit from the process of elimination.

It's really bad though especially that ICO's credibility is getting reduce along with bounty campaign's success.


Even shit projects can give you decent rewards if you dump fast enough.

I'm agree with you my friend, Hitmex token (BMEX) already trade-able, Once they paid us let's dumps. Nothing can complain again right? And also it seems their was really serious to their project because they have a big buy order like more than 8BTC. Do you think this doubted exchange? In my experienced I tried to deposit some alt coin there and also withdraw and nothings problem about my things did.

In my opinion, you are accusing some Bounties of a different logic. For example the Hitmex bounty, as far as I am concerned, did not find out if Hitmax was a con artist. even now there has been no verdict from the forum stating Hitmex is a fraud. so I think you have been wrong in evaluating it.

Bounty campaigns with millions dollars pool  always make me suspicious. Actually, I have participated in some of these campaigns but I received almost nothing. For those projects, they deliberately offered great rewards just to attract inexperienced hunters.

Perhaps it is because in recent times many projects have been exposed as scam (fake team and plagiarized whitepaper) and this has greatly reduced investor interest in these new projects.


I agree with all your arguments. did you see the team members on that site? I did several searches on google and did not find information about the team of that project. Does anyone know who the owner of the exchange is?


I didn’t see how big investors would be interested in this project, instead of putting photos of team members, they just put names of team members... honestly it’s a project that doesn’t have great news for the market


another strange project that has a scam accusation:

OZCAR Platform [OCR] - Fake Team - Possibility Scam Project (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5212460.0)


meaningless project

Ozcar project has a scam accusations by posting fake team, they are trying to save face by defending their project, in the first place they should not fake their team, it's a deception on their part and if you want millions from investors you will never fake any information about your project, it's a big no.

After all, the more scam we can identify, the better our skills at identifying such projects will be.
Personally, I will be happy to follow the fate of these projects and try to find patterns between them, I think there will be much more than I can imagine.

Bounty hunters are still trying their luck with bounty campaigns despite the fact that there's no assurance of getting paid accordingly. No matter how hard we try to do our research, it's not easy to determine if bounty campaigns are scam or not. We can't blame the participants of those projects because most of us will take the risk just to earn a good amount.

in my opinion, if the bounty hunter gets a project that is not good, it can be an experience for them to be able to choose a better. investors will also be more careful in choosing projects to invest.

to get a good prize in my opinion read whitepaper, who is a bounty manager, who is a developer, and others. so we believe this is a very good project to do.

Thats why I am participating mostly in exchange bpunty campaigns because instead of others they generate a real profit so the token could remain its value.

Bounty manager is not to be blamed for most of the cases, but if a bounty manager keeps bringing shit bounty, then maybe we should care of that! You are right, many projects look good, but in the end, they do scam! And many projects look not that better, like mb8 coin, but the reward or project can give you huge money!

Yeah, they have that amazing marketing that make you question everything about your research and that is their power. You can be the greatest investor of all time in crypto space and you could basically do all the research and data and read whitepaper and basically do everything you need to do and even consider the coin or token not a good one but sometimes they do marketing so so so well that you fell victim to them.

Those bounties and hard work sometimes makes a low life bad coin or token very loved by many people even if they are horrible ones. So it is a fight between your brain and your heart to stop your heart by your brain but ignore your brain by your heart.

I have also felt that the project you mentioned is not good, so I did not join the bounty. Especially with Ripple Decentralized, without any tilted news they seemed to want to take over Ripple easily. From the beginning these projects were already suspicious

Many bounty hunters do not consider projects and look for projects that are listed and have the probability of paying. Joining a campaign nowadays is like a gamble since you take a risk either of you will get paid or not, is it legitimate or not, or if will it have a value in the future or not. It's each participant's discretion where to join. What bounty hunters should learn is to be responsible not to promote scam bounties since this kind of project kills the whole crypto community, investors had already been weary on investing their money in crypto due to the numbers of scam projects in crypto.

I think they have no choice.  Rather than posting and not get incentivized,  they try altcoin bounty campaign hoping that their effort won't be wasted even though they know that it is like a lottery to join the altcoin bounty campaign now a day.  I bet they won't apply to this kind of shit bounty if they are able to find a BTC paying bounty campaign and qualified to join it.

LoL, this type of project is very funny. How can they be sure to be somewhat listed on a large exchange like that?
I think they just want to attract more new investors.

I findi it quite hard to determine which campaign are scam or not,or which campaign has high possibility of succeeding. Sometimes I refer to their ANN thread or white paper but I sometimes there is no white paper so I will ignore that campaign. I am also judging the presentation of their bounty. If I am still not sure about the campaign I am asking my friend. He judge better than me. If I become satisfied to it I look into its reward and make a computation of how much money I earn in the project.
I really don't wanna waste my time in something unprofitable.

It's not that hard to detect some scam bounties on this forum, forget whitepaper or ANN, these two has nothing to do when detecting scam projects, you need to learn the concept on the project and ask questions on telegram group, you need to find if there are fake teams on the project team list etc

At this time all projects will be difficult to register themselves on a large exchange, except for those who have sufficient conditions, meaning that on average most projects are difficult to put their tokens into a large exchange, because of increasingly fierce competition makes most projects become overwhelmed in get new investors as well as in completing requirements to large exchanges.

I am really of the opinion that no project should be addresses as shit unless proven otherwise. For the period I have been observing hunters and bounty hunting, I get testimonies from friends on projects called shits that actually did pretty well later on.

If I may ask, how did you come to the conclusion that Cartesi is a good project? Most hyped projects tends to give the biggest disappointments in this space more than those called shits. Best is to be selective of projects to participate in, believe in the project and not put too much hope on getting rewards.

It is quite simple let me tell you this,,, assume that all campaigns are scam. And get them to prove that they are not. Prove they have a product. Prove they are actually developing it. Prove the community is real and not fake bot armies.

Whitepaper does not prove anything. Your friend does not know anything. Only the project can prove these things.

Not until these listed projects prove themselves to be scam, you can't be so sure. Most times projects with too much hype turns out to be the purest scam of all time. Those doing this bounty should continue and believe in them with the hope they will deliver.

Big pot doesnt mean huge reward. The payment is in tokens which doesnt have value yet and seeing a budget with impossible rewards are highly suspicious.

 
This one is highly suspicious, I dont even know if Ripple even aware with these guys using their name as fork of this new bounty. Rewards is also high since it will fork xrp coins but the value will be different from the original surely. We will see. Even team profile has none. Beware!

Yes, Cartesi seems a laudable project judging from their constant online engagements. But the truth remains that no one can truly decipher these daredevil and scamming developers. Otherwise no one would be wasting their time indulging in their bounties. Even, sometimes transparent and trustworthy BMs are deceived by these projects to help manage their scam projects. I sincerely wish we all know how to completely spot these scam bounties.

And which is the reason why many of them will come back to cry that they are not being paid or that the project turn to scam. Even when I did not know anything about doing research on projects than when I first joined BTT. I made it a habit to most time join bounty campaign that has mostly high ranking members ( hero and legendary ) on the signature campaign because I believed they have much experience than me and they are not likely going to join projects that wont be good.

Thanks for this, you didn't add Sheng World to list of Legitimate projects. I saw they have partnered with PunditX which is a good news, and the IEO is on probit and listing will be done there too. Why will any right thinking person take ripple decentralized serious after what  ETCV did to people.

Dear OP please maintain your kindness it helps a lot us.. Thankyou ... Pls update the thread anytime if you see some bulshit scammers.. Can you make an investigation for us about this BillieCoin .. I appreciate your efforts good vibes  ;)
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5219452

I think there are no hypes surrounding those Bounties
it's a scanty Bounty and you doing a thread about them just made them popular.

You cannot stop Bounties from being created, you can only restrict your participation for the best.
Dyor and get it right

Atleast we know them just be thankful my friend.. Investigation about those stupid cammers wasn't easy at all.. OP just doing his part to be a good example in this forum and also he cares a lot about the bounty hunters that could just waste their time if he didn't make this act. Think about those fake ICO's they could scam good investors..

why not just be happy that there was a kind man who is concern. How about you ? have you ever contributed kindness in your life ?

If they can be arrested and made to pay their promises the best, I don't need them to be jailed but that they should made to pay. I have been involved in so many scam since last year. For example all bounties managed by orengitu never paid hunters that worked for the publicity in every aspect; social media, signature bounty etc. These exit scam projects by orengitu are Algo, orionix, hinto etc. Algo is now listed in cmc but refused to pay and orengitu is not giving any information since 5 months ago.

Also projects like Blocksafe, KNL have been giving excuses after like 6 months ago too.
More too like bizpaye, xcard, IAToken are being looked upon if they would eventually pay hunters who have laboured for them. CitiOS promised July, hunters are waiting too.

This is really appalling, these scammers need to be taken off from this noble forum.

Would it not be more constructive to come up with a list of the best bounty campaigns, rather than this rant.

What in your opinion is the BEST bounty campaigns right now?

see for yourself mate ! I think you need to buy new eyeglasses  ;D ;D
The OP already posted this link on this thread.

I think what op has done in this thread by giving hunters opportunity to air certain ill in the bounties is good enough. If we have more committed to research against these scam projects all over the bounty section, it will do a lot for the needed clean up.
Also , the scam bounties are not bringing good image for the forum.
I suggest that the forum should make it mandatory for any bounty to run on btc, etheruem or more popular altcoins that is highly ranked on cmc.

Anyone can come up with a list of various campaigns, which they claim to be safe. But despite this, there is going to be no guarantee that the campaign is going to pay. If you want to get paid, then join a campaign where the funds are being kept in third party escrow. But you will find very few such campaigns here. On top of that, make sure that the soft cap is not too high.

I know you're looking for easy list on good bounties but this isn't the right way to ask. Be polite and someone else might show you the way.

You're right about the accusations on ALGO and Orionix which were managed by this user Orengitu
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1068599. Orengitu has since deleted the thread on ALGO and it's about time someone made a thread on this in Scam Accusation board.

Its really a rare thing to have that kind of bounty that have an escrowed funds yet most of them do really handle out those funds on their own or on the project dev itself.
Bounty hunting becomes shit already since 2018 and i dont even expect that there are still people who do still get involved into this activity.
Shit projects is everywhere even you do say that they have low caps but nothing is on assurance.

There fraud or fake projects do continue to pop out like mushrooms because there are still people who do support nor advertise these things.
They are just simply waiting for those fool investors to buy their shit tokens.

I am not following the project sections for years as there are ton of projects which are created to make money for the developers and now people are aware of the situation and you will never find that kind of investors which we used to see in the past because everyone is aware of the risk involved in investing in these projects.

This year I think it is difficult for us to find good bounty because the current market is too difficult for altcoins, so new altcoins will be very difficult to succeed because of budget shortage. This year's Bounty will definitely be a waste of everyone's time, so don't expect profits this year

Merited you for this, I'm pretty sure you spend time just to look on this ICO one of this was caught using fake and photo shopped people and included it to their team, this is deception and scammers has been doing this for a long time, they thought they will not be caught I'm talking about OZCAR, and they are trying to defend their action, but of course it's futile.

I don't think that's the main reason, I believe the main reason is the market itself, low budget or high budget as long as it's a high potential project, a lot of bounty hunters would still join. What I am seeing this year is we have a lot of bounty hunters but there's only few project, so promoting is not really a problem.

Glad to still see you wearing a signature on bounty campaign despite of this belief.

it is not true. Do not create a negative background about bounty campaigns and everything will be fine. Now many campaigns bring good money. my last great income was at IPX. I got about $ 400 a month. therefore, I believe that those people who make the correct study of the projcet - earn money

I don't believe that the current market is the only reason that projects are scamming. Rather they have just seen it as a scamming spray since no regulation and nothing serious will be done even if they use a manager's account, is just to be tagged and the original owners won't be dealt with. If there are regulation, certain things will stop. I read op saying cartesi is a good project, yet it is operating in same market.

But if crypo prices increases then we can see some legit projects gets launching especially after the halving just same as what happened in 2017 and also we can expect bitcoin paying crypto bounties so until that wait for it and concentrate more on other crypto earning ways like trading.

This is a good opinion, I can see from many points of view on how to find a good project to work on and support it. Although our research shows the project is not feasible, but others are not necessarily. Sometimes projects that are considered bad, after completing their campaigns turn out to be good.

Despite of the little chance of earning profit from small bounty projects, we really cannot blame those people who are still trying to engage into such projects because it is now hard to enter on huge bounties because of the requirements, leaving them no choice but to try their luck in small projects. Investing would be also a hassle because not all people are capable of investing. No matter how we push them to just choose popular projects, if they won't be accepted then it would be more of a waste of time.
Actually, most of the projects are failing and the market situation plays a huge role in such outcome. Regulation won't be that much of a help. Once the market itself, is able to recover, maybe the anticipated uptrend could trigger such occurence, bounties could again be as profitable as before, when the market situation is profitable to investors and bounty participants.

You're right! If the community ignores dubious projects, then the bounty market has the opportunity to clear itself of the negative and begin to attract investors again. But the matter is not even in the projects themselves, as in those who launch them and offer them for promotion. Perhaps these people work together and you need to ignore not only the projects themselves, but also those who offer them for promotion. As a result, as always, the investor and the bounty participants suffer. With this, you definitely need to do something.

That's only happened when the team behind is not satisfied yet with the money they've collected from the initial stage, they are aiming for more
and let the token be added to exchange, bring hypes and make it sure that they've attract more investors to ride with it, lucky to those bounty
hunters who able to catch up while the coin still hot inside the exchange.

Sorry, but this doesn’t seem very true. Judging by the final spreadlist of this bounty company, you could not earn $ 400 per month. Or something I misunderstood. The maximum that I managed to find is 4000 coins in five weeks for wearing a signature that = $ 250. If I made a mistake somewhere or didn’t take into account something, I ask you to correct me, I love accuracy.

The existence of the what so called "shit bounties" are really awful because it marked a bad impression for the whole community to avoid getting engage into any bounty event anymore due to the reason that because of their bad experiences on the recent issues concerning many projects that turns out to be all scam, people are now taking a move on getting rid of bounty campaign. Not all projects are just like that but since the recent issues have affected the mindset of the people, it give a bad imagery that all projects are just like that which is not a good generalization to be made. This is I think the reason why there is only a few bounties existing nowadays which is awful since getting into bounties is one of the profitable ways of earning on working with cryptocurrency. To be able to get rid of such "shit bounties" I think it will be best for us to lend a hand to be able to somehow lessen or best to eliminate such bounties to create a safe work place for everyone one of us.

Yes we'll know that. The most important thing we the bounty hunters should know is: doing your individual research will help in finding good bounty to participate than just joining some random bounty. Although, I have been a victim of this circumstances before till I sat down to think about my ability to research into any published bounty before participating into it. Laziness on the part of the bounty hunters made them to always pay the ultimate price for working with these companies without getten  paid for their promotion.

Your calculation is accurate, and seeing of how much coins he got, it is only 2400 IPX which is around $157 current market price. That is only the amount of earnings he received for the month and not $400, which is really exaggerated for me.
But still, he is still able to earn, which is he really study the project and able to find a good project.

The rate to make money from bounty campaigns is 10% and not always that project can help you make money from here. I think by all means you need to take the time to research and evaluate carefully because there are so many projects that you need to avoid. Currently, I still participate in a number of large projects because I do not have many options at this time and depend a lot on the development of that project.

The issue is there simply isn't that many good quality bounties available these days because the most significant IEOs are marketed by the launchpad service that hosts them so this leaves only a small number of projects who still like the older ICO crowdfunding model

It is hard to stop participants from participating in these projects. As you can see, participants continue to participate and continue to increase everyday. It only show that so much bounty hunters can't determine a good or bad projects.
Good thing the below link shows the list of good projects and really helps a lot of bounty hunters.

They are getting attention from those who doesn't know how to look for a proper bounty.
Those participants are only joining what they could without doing some background check on those project.
Sometimes you could see that the bounty is just a big joke or a fake project by their bounty rewards.

The bounties are total waste of time, anyone who can't do proper research will fall for such projects and hoping they will get paid later on, only those who know how precious time is will avoid wasting their time

Yes, you are absolutely right. Doing bounties without proper research is just a waste of time! Sad but true that people never stopped joining in shit bounties, only a few numbers of people fo research before joining, others 70% people keep doing bounties blindly, and they stick their position at newbie forever!  Everyone should realize time is precious than tiny money!

So it's really a must to make a thorough research before joining such bounties because as of these days, only few of the numerous bounties are genuine and are paying the bounty hunters well at the end of the campaign. But for those who never do research first, goodluck to all of you. It's better to spend quality time with your family than giving most of your time posting in shit bounties.

Even though you've participated in the legit project but it won't give assurance that its price is really amazing or it pumps instantly. We still need to be patient in such a way that we are giving them time also to recover and stabilize its market demand. As more often that new project will definitely suffer a huge dump after listed since most bounty participant will dump their coin right after they received the reward.

That is the hunter now most of them only see the quality at the beginning, not doing further research with the project, bounty is now too ambitious when it comes to the new bounty program, they immediately send an application to register it even though if it is meticulously it could be a bounty scamer.

That bounty now many are lazy in reading the rules and also do not do with research.

Sometimes scammers put too much percentage of the supply of their token to the bounty campaigns to attract many of them to join. The more bounty participants and good promotion there will be. I already read and make my own research of those projects that mention by OP. I immediately know that those campaigns are not what other people see (scam project). A lot of participants still joining this campaigns, we should tell them before it's too late. Their website even show the money being raised and some of them don't have any project team.

Of course, every bounty participant would want a big reward so they'll earn big enough after the promotion, this usually experience in the last like the last bull run but not this time.

Now, IEO is more accurate as its the exchange who are telling how much funds are raise already, more transparent compared to the ICO style where team are putting figures in their own website which we don't know if its really the funds coming from the investors or their own money only, just to make the project look good and to entice more investors.

We should stop telling people not to do a particular bounty, many have created this type of OP on this forum and yet the numbers of hunters promoting those projects keeps rising, it's a waste of time and energy

What campaigns seem legit? Read before you post, all the projects OP lists are bad bounty projects that need to be stay away from not promote them

Nothing can stop bounty hunters from participating in more bounties unless they realize it themselves.
I have been a bounty participant in early 2017. Yes, when the ICO hype was at peak and did some real good bounties but as most of them proved themselves fake, I stopped doing it. By then I realized it's all a waste of time until you find a bounty yourself and believe in the project.
Now I don't invest my time and effort in any project since 99% of them are scam.
So let these bounty hunters do what they want and let them realize their mistakes by themselves.
Only then they will actually stop doing it.

Many bounty hunters still joining that ripple decentralized bounty, I'm not surprised, the truth is not many people on here likes reading, they come on here for bounties only and that's why they will never come out with flying color

You are right, but we need to spread these topics to make aware people. We shouldn’t let people spread the scam/shit projects! People are getting negative vibes only because of these scam projects! If a single newbie hunter learn from these threads, I think all the wise bounty hunters contribution will be successful!

Some projects are not scams but just bad for crypto space because of their stupid use cases, things that don't really need to get on the blockchain, they are better for offline business, these type of projects will die quickly because there will be no demand at all

Bounty hunters are naturally known to be risk takers so we can't blame them from trying different bounties even without any assurance of getting paid accordingly. ,I recently joined one of the bounties being listed above but I have noticed that their whitepaper is questionable so I decided to leave and just look for a legit one. We only have to check every little detail about the bounty that we're joining.

At first I kept complaining about lack of bounty projects this year but after January 2020 many projects keep showing up, after doing research of few of them I came to understand that they are mostly fake projects, just like 2019, I'm not surprised, only few projects will be legit this year

It is true, but they should at least avoid these kind of projects.

There are other members that shares a good bounty campaign that they can join with. Or maybe try to apply with signature campaign in services section. There is a lot of ways that they can do just to avoid these kind of projects, they just need to find it.

seems to be difficult to prevent all of it. shit project can not be known at the beginning except those who do look scam from the simplest elements. but we specifically won't be able to do more than that. except for each bounty hunter himself who makes improvements in their quality and ability to select and analyze projects before joining their campaign.

If almost all bounty projects are just a scam and waste our time, why do so many people continue to invest time and get involved in these projects? Perhaps you're quite unlucky when you joined the bounty in the early days, that makes you have a lot of negative with the project but you should be generous and have a more open view, very few bounty can guarantee success and pay us but as long as they still have a chance, we should spend time with them, instead of leaving time too empty and stopping all activity

That's a good thing for you. Finding a good campaign is very rare nowadays considering the sudden rise in number of scam projects. If you can see that the current bounty you are joining in has a good reputation and discipline to the participants, it wouldn't be that bad if you are going to be confident about it as long as it is accomplishing its duty to you.

We can really say that bounty projects suddenly disappeared for a while but now that its back, we can be assured that it is way more better and developed compared to what it was before. Last year was one of the worst year for bounties as scam projects keep on dominating the forum leading for the bounty hunters to lose trust and leave bounty hunting all of a sudden.

Of all the bounty campaigns you mentioned all the Bounty Manager (BM) is low rank - Jr member and not only that, they also have Neutral Trust.

Similar to kakatua promoting scam campaigns (plagiarized white paper)

If you can't find the right bounty then we should not participate that kind of crap bounty, but doing this kind of crap bounty means wasting time and data! I myself always keep a close eye on projects before work, try to find potential, find out about the team. If all things speak for me, then I start working. Try not to waste time on day after day. Even though I've been a victim of a lot of bad projects, I've found a lot of good work after that.

Did you find any good campaigns at this stage? I also search for bounty based on my experience, learn everything about the project but at the current stage I don't see any projects that are really good and worthy for us to participate in.

You're right about this project,  their graphics got my attention when i was scouting for projects in the bounty section, i bet they've got a good graphics designer but the exchange list they put up on their various write-ups gave me a doubt about the project and my curiosity kick in immediately. I proceeded to their telegram group to ask my first question by saying do they have any official agreement between those various exchange and they tried evading my question several time untill one of the admin messaged me privately saying they don't have any agreement yet and solicited i delete my questions from the groups.

Normally,  it's not right for a project to bring up list of exchanges when they don't have any agreement.

This thread is very helpful for analyzing to choose bounty campaigns. This is also very important for novice bounty hunters, let's care more about your choices before your join campaign or your hard work will end in vain. Quality first, please. The OP has given a brief description of why the campaign should be avoided, so please consider it. We cannot fully predict the truth, but suspicion is necessary. Avoid joining rotten and suspicious campaigns, make sure it's official to avoid fraud.

I was quite surprised when many bounty hunters registered for the Ozcar campaign, wasn't that very suspicious and the team looked very unprofessional with the team's edited profile carelessly? come on, use your logic.

Yes, I really need to be vigilant, I see in this forum that a thread has given a warning about this project. Don't waste time and always learn before joining bounties because it will waste time and give false hope

besides giving false hope, it can use up our time and mind, so sorry after we realize that the project was cheating. therefore we must be diligent in learning to be able to distinguish real projects from fraudulent projects

The first three campaign is handled by same manager. I think some of the listed one is okay but of course we should be cautious when picking up some campaigns. I dont like the ripple decentralized as the project exhibit none proof of sincerity. I think the developer of that has probably have grudge on ripple for creating a total reverser of the ripple project. Anyway, just dont do it if you feel, since no team, no whitepaper and their objective is quite contradicting.

Yeah agreed! Bounty hunters are having quite difficult time out there. Is there any set of procedure to identify quality bounty campaigns. Because it will help newbies to stay away from these time wasting activities.

Most only hope that the project that the campaign will follow will launch on the exchanger and quickly sell it. But now there are many campaigns that don't pay to the campaign participants and I think we need to be careful in choosing the campaign we want to participate in

I know!But how we can know which bounty has potential and what is shit?Even the legit ones has the possibility to fail.We cant  be sure that  the bounty we join are legit nor just a shit.Many projects now are failing only some become successfull.If you would join then choose  wisely and ready yourself for the outcome.

Before choosing a bounty that must be considered is

1. Bounty manager
2. See the project website, must have a good team and partner

I think those two things are enough to avoid shit project

dont forget about product acceptance in crypto market, if they have both of factors but not about this i am sure crypto community will not hold for long term. investors prefer hold for projects that developting blockchain technology that might be adopted in any field in future.

Actually this is difficult to identify a quality bounty campaign, but that does not mean it cannot be identified, one way is to look at the composition of the project team and see and read the whitepaper and with whom the project collaborates, because the project does not collaborate with any party. it will also be difficult to succeed.

Well, those two things are enough to help us choose a project. but, there are other things when I identify the project, namely the market for the token, currently IEO is quite good in probit, while IEO in p2pb2b, vindax, latoken, and others, I avoid. a good project also has a market. however you identify it, the potential for a scam still exists, but this can minimize the scammer.

I agree, it must continue to learn to see a good project, because very much to be considered but that is also no guarantee. But it would be nice to always choose a project from the best BM, to further minimize

Your words are all right. Without a good project, people will lose their capital.Such awareness needs to be postulated. Investors can be aware of this.Anyone who is afraid of losing capital. We need to be aware of it.

Ozcar has a scam allegation already so that one is already out of the contention. The team members have been photoshoped,  getting proper suits and made them look professional. It is inevitibale since there are still plenty of bounty hunters don't do their research properly, (I, myself is included in those lists) and solely relying on instinct or hoping that the project would turn out to be successful.

It is best to avoid IEO projects in exchange of p2pb2b, vindax, latoken because indeed the average sales there end in failure or scamer, in fact I have never invested or traded on a low exchange except selling bounty tokens that have no progress in the project then I will sell it at a low price, therefore it is worth avoiding some projects that look at low exchanges.

Presently it's true that most bounties are shit, but then there are still some good few you could lay your hands on though presently most of these good once have low reward as bounty pool,also if you want to know why some hunters are still doing the bounties you term shit is because they probably didn't do research or they just want to do them because nothing really to do.

You Nailed it OP, HITmex is an absolute scam project, the bounty campaign was managed by a single scammer that owned over 10accounts on this forum and I'm glad he was busted later, if you are good at research you can easily spot bad projects

Ripple decentralized is a scam and also hitmex exchange too, the bounty manager called kakatua have been given red trust because he introduced too many fake projects that was crafted by himself and maybe his team, there are still other ba projects in bounty section, be careful

yes, you're right some bounty hunters doesnt check about the project they just join the campaign if they feel like about it.

in most cases, social media participants register with many projects. as we know that it is not surprising that many social media participants join several prizes but don't really care whether they are good projects or bad projects. because the most important thing for them is to join and hope to get tokens from every project they follow

For bounty hunters, it is difficult to check whether the project being carried out will be valid or not because the sales process is still ongoing, other than that bounty hunters usually only see whether the bounty manager is trusted or not. This is different when the token is listed but the developer team breaks the promise by not paying to the hunters.

Many more shit bounties will show up, but as for quality projects they won't because it's not a good time to introduce a new project and they won't want to lose here, but fake bounties have nothing to lose so be expecting more fake bounty projects

I think it's a good time to launch new project because many people are at home, they might try to invest in new projects, I don't see any reason why new developers should put their project on hold because of the virus

Thanks for sharing this. Hitmex is an exchange or is it a scam exchange? Can you constantly update this thread with more shit bounties so we can all avoid it.

One more thing to be careful of are few projects that have unrealistic use case, I mean use cases that won't work, yes you heard me right, A.I bounty projects for example

Thats why its a must to conduct a research and dont invest or join in bounties just because of the hype because its not an indication of a worthy project. Real use case that can solve real problem is what should we look for in bounty, plus the transparent team and a reputable manager who will manage it.

Good thing that I didn't join to those crap bounties :^)

The problem is, they look like promising at first but once they finished their IEO/STO then the development is going downwards from this time and many of the projects are abandoned because of the outdated information and bad support. Unless peoples are willing to give the good projects like the OP wrote, then it should not be a problem for now.

I guess you better check this thread. Hitmex Exchange {Scam} The owner is a fraud (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5234569.0)

There, they are talking about the exchange being a scam, the bounty manager itself created that thread and he confirm he is managing a scam exchange.

That's a non sense use case that will never be a real thing. I have seen so many projects that offered crap use case that can be real only in our dream. This kind of project must be avoided or even reported to the communities as a scam. The hunters must be a party who can do that to help others to get awareness too.

Well, and now all those projects have become scams. If someone laughed at you in the past, they need to apologize to you immediately because their statements are true. Also now I see a lot of new bounty is scam, hope you will go through and check it to give timely warnings to people.

There are still many participants tempted by the offer by the bounty which is beyond reasonable. The scammers have become an important concern where this person is very difficult to distinguish, because it always updates the way for participants to be included in their offer. It is very important to research and find information about the prizes to be followed, so that later you are not disappointed later.

I like the initiative of finding campaigns who have many loopholes like no team, no transparency, plagiarized whitepaper etc.

Unfortunately for bounty hunters out there who doesn't care if the campaign they are participating is a scam, this will be useless and they will not listen to this. The only way for this to stop is to learn. Let them participate until they realize that it is not worth it already. Sometimes in life, you need to make some mistakes in order for you to learn and the same applies on bounty hunting. They must join and be scammed so that they will realize that bounty hunting isn't profitable anymore because of scams and it is just a waste of time anymore.

Yea you're right, there are too many bounty hunter greedy in this market. The current market is very difficult for new projects but they still believe that new projects will spend hundreds of thousands of dollars or millions of dollars for bounty. And after all, those projects became scams and never distributed tokens to participants. They need to be alert and look at the present reality, the bounty is not so great as it used to be

So, OP did strong research than you, mate! Hitmex bounty already scammed and it's bounty manager also got tagged and flagged for a various reason! Anyone may have different opinions, but when you see valid proofs against something, you need to do research hard before investing your precious time! Hitmex bounty looked not good because of all those trading volumes were fake generated! I am glad I did not participate in that shit!

even though it doesn't look convincing, a project still has a large campaign participant. we can see several projects with participants up to thousands and end up scam. but now maybe not like that. many projects that have a scam indication but not many enthusiasts. I think now fewer and fewer people are working on bounties.

that greedy thing is painful for them right? however, sometimes more people are interested in supporting a project by looking at the allocation of prizes. if large, then many will support. not only that, even though the project looks strange, or the scam level is high, I think there are still people who will support it. Well, I think it's just a matter of greedy.

- Bounty may not be so good as the first years but new projects that use hundreds of thousands of dollars for bounty are still possible, it is not completely scam as you think when rewards are only tokens that do not have an exact value on exchanges, the estimated value will deviate greatly from reality. Bounty hunters also have some analysis before they join the campaign, they also have vigilance and know how to choose but apart from those factors, they like to challenge their luck, bounty with too low reward really does not bring too many opportunities

Unfortunately, there are many bounty hunters, especially the new ones, that join bounty based on the stated rewards in the thread. Not knowing that seldom these bounties right away give or distribute stakes. I agree with you that proper and diligent research is important in doing bounty. There are already too many shit ones out there so let us not add more by joining them.

Every year many projects have sprung up and even they also launched a bounty to promote it more widely to investors, but we have to be able to choose the best in finding bounties, sometimes good bounties also always end up with scams or tokens that are invaluable, then bounties don't be too expected to get money.

Bounty bounty estimates are now quite large but I am not sure if it can provide a good reward to hunters because every distribution is always a dump and prices are falling.

Yup! And the worse thing is, once the entire crypto market picks up for a full recovery, you can be 100% sure there will be tons more of shit bounties coming up as well with every one of them promising you even more money and more shit tokens.

The forum has done a good job in trimming it down a lot though so I appreciate that,,, as long as we keep reporting the bad stuff, it helps keep things clean!

I think that at a time like this, for many unemployed people, the only chance to earn some amount of cryptocurrency is a bounty campaign. therefore, people register in all bounty campaigns on the forum and do not even do an analysis. they hope that at least some of all projects will bring them profit

I read Whitepapper about two projects Hitmex, Ozcar and i am sure two shit project. Even now i received a scam topic about hitmex project, so don't trust fake project without strong proof. Hitmex project bounty manager already open a topic team not paid yet bounty amount with manager salary. when bounty manager ask about payment then project team said after after and after with more bad language.

Unfortunately, many people do no research on the campaign projects that they participate in, and many prefer to participate in campaigns where the earnings are high. For this reason, many scam projects also create a high return opportunity in bounty campaigns and many people support this project by succumbing to this profit ambition. In addition, as I have just mentioned, many users are not informed about the project they are participating in, they are not doing research, and therefore they are advertising scam projects for weeks, perhaps months. Let the projects disclosed in the topic remain on one side, I think that at least the white papers of the projects should be read before participating in the campaigns. Those who consider the process of reading white papers as an unnecessary or time consuming activity can also make a short-term research about the team of the project they are participating in and support that project by having knowledge.

Absolutely, I blamed most of new profile, they can be made hype to shit bounty. Provably they will join to see projects rewards, dosen't matter projects liquidity. Several thing will first come in new projects likes which are host in the project, then teams member, whitepaper through to know about whole preview in details, these research are very much necessity.
