I'm here to talk about bounties with long duration, I know we all have our experience with short term bounties and long term bounties but I have come to understand that it doesn't matter, here is my own experience
 Last year I promoted E3T bounty project for 4weeks duration and I earned 30$
In 2018 I promoted Airwallet for more than 14 weeks and I earned over a thousand dollar

Durations doesn't matter, small duration bounties can pay high rewards and long duration bounties can pay worse rewards, it's all vice versa, what matters is the quality of the project you promote

You can't really blame bounty hunters for hating long term campaigns, of course in 2017, everyone is on the boat of the hype, so it doesn't matter if the campaign is long enough. I've seen Legendary members that time raking up thousands of dollars in a campaign that lasted months and months.

But 2018-2019 was different though, many project fails and those who survived just got a measly payment. You are lucky that you have earn on Airwallet. So it's a case to case basis, but I'm sure majority was complaining because they didn't get the money that they were supposedly promised by many project.

The problem about long term campaign is, they make it long term because they are so greedy that they want to raised more money so they make it by batch.
Then after completing all of the ICO in the end nothing's really good about the project they want to create.
Bounty hunter's just wasting thier time and effort for waiting that long duration campaign in exchange for nothing , thats why more of them hate long term campaign .

It depends, some short period bounties can be disappointing just like IMO exchange bounty that lasted for four weeks but locked rewards till date, it was another precious time wasted

but sometimes some bounties have a long period of time but have a fee that is not worth it. it has nothing to do with how long we promote something, but it depends on the project we are promoting, is it really worth it or not.
however, no matter how long you promote a project, but if it's not worth it, it's like doing a pointless job.

And its going to be a long wait too because bounty tokens are often released when all the investors had dumped what they bought. It could take more than 3 months before the bounty are going to be distributed. I was also up to hold as long as the project is going to have good teams but if not, its just not worth promoting which the price of the tokens you get will keep depreciating.

Judging from my own experience bounties with long time duration always disappoints, take it or leave it, I'm better off with low time bounties, some bounties even extend their duration but only few ends Worthing all the waits

Wasting your time is something you don't want to do with bounties so many hunters will surely go against bounties with long duration, to me I don't blame them, this days many bounty projects aren't worth it so sticking with a single project for months and later getting bad result will hurt big

Your opinion about short and long term bounties are well respected, however, this thing is like a dice facing different people with different sides or number. To me personally, I don't like long term bounties, because the probability that long term or short term bounties would be successful is 0.5.  The bounty campaign of Mycros last year lasted more than a year, though I don't know how hunters earned from it finally because I later back off.  That's extremely too long for crying out loud. I just prefer bounties of 1-12 weeks max, because I can't just waste my time and other resources on uncertainties.

Long-term projects often have big prizes but People don't like long-term campaigns because they feel the effort is not paying off, A series of projects lasts several months and bounty hunters receive almost nothing. You will lose patience if you regularly encounter such projects.

The best bounties are four weeks bounties, this doesn't mean your reward will be low, look at Tachyon protocol bounty, it lasted for 4weeka and reward was mind-blowing, what matters is the project quality but long duration bounties aren't always successful

I'm good with 4-12 weeks bounty durations, I don't care much about this because you really can't tell which one will give good result on the end, what should be important to every one is how the projects are

Unfortunately, we don't know which project that have quality, so we can only follow them to expect to get the rewards. If we see what is happens today, the bounty programs with have a short term duration will be like by people because they don't need to wait for a long time to get the rewards. But some people will be fine with participating in the long term duration because maybe they already get more information that shows the project has the quality than the other projects.

Apart from fishing out the bad projects I think it's fine to keep promoting any projects either long or short duration time because you can't tell which one will favour you

Yes, you are right. Bounty duration doesn't matter every time, the project matters. If Binance comes with a bounty for 15-16 weeks, every bounty participant will do that gladly, because it's sure income. Airwallet rewards were unexpected, same as Mb8 coin, no one thought that normal bounty can give such huge money to hunters! But what if a project runs for 50-52 weeks like the Mycrojobs, Zero carbon? 15-16 weeks duration is not that long period when it crosses than that, I wouldn't do that bounty!

Ofcourse you have to be wary of whatever project you promote. Because it won't make any sense to do promotion for 6-9 months only to get zero value??

Also, instead of doing long term with your leisure, why not focus on viable options

Indeed, bounties now like being reversed with small rewards of short duration that often make us happy because we get money according to what we are promoting.
While large allocations of long duration of up to 6 months often do not produce good results, even the value is small, that is what we are looking for, the project you choose is very decisive.

The point is we see that the project is good, your prediction is good in guessing ahead, sometimes it's difficult to understand which is better to promote.

Bounty business is killed once the IEO took the place of the ICOs.
Now you won't blame a bounty hunter for not doing a bounty that last only 3 months while in 2017 i did some that lasted 6+ months lol.
An ICO now will be lucky to find good bounty hunters if it's campaign is 3+ months.

Again, we have bounty that become successful and majority didn't, so it doesn't matter, as long as the campaign is based on real people and have use case, short or long they are going to be successful, in my opinion.

But for most bounty hunters, they don't have the patience, they wanted to see some results very quick. So they ran out of patience, even accusing some projects of scams if they are not being paid after a long term campaign, and what happen next? dumping, they got the rewards big or small and that what it all matters for majority of them.

Indeed it doesn't matter if we talk about a good project right? But how if we talk about bad project? And we didn't know it before? I'm okay with long term and short term pariode of promotion as long as the project will give me a huge profit or at least I can be paid of my work. I think bounty campaign is like gambling who need more lucky to get high profit. I have promoted several project privously and many people at that time was consider that the coin was potential but in the fact I miss it and I just got a little profit of it.

The thing is its hard to determine the quality of the project, and even if you believe that the project is good, there is no assurance that the project would give you a good reward, bounty hunters does prefer short term bounty because they experience wasting time on long term bounties, we can't blame them for that.

Of course, bounty time doesn't matter in this space. We should only care about the quality of the project and its budget. If the bounty is good quality and they have a big budget to promote it will surely attract a lot of participants, and they will come to the end of the campaign in a good mood.

According to one successful example, it is impossible to draw conclusions and identify patterns. Statistics tell us about the reverse situation in the bounty market.
The longer the company goes, the higher the likelihood that it will not cope with its task of raising funds. There are much more such examples than successful ones, keep this in mind.

Some trusted projects were also running their bounties in short time and they have paid the hunters like credits, tachyon, sessia, and many more. In another situation there were so many crap projects have been running their bounties more than a half of the year and they were not get anything from their campaign.
Even if the bounty runs only for a week and as long as if that was a trusted project and as you said if that doesn't matter a lot.

Relictum bounty campaign which OP had joined is a campaign that will run for more than 2 months, that is certainly way too long but to be honest I can see the team is working for this project. We aren't sure yet if its going to be worth yet.  The crypto market in general is looking good though so maybe when Relictum is finally matured, its price will also be worth.

I would like to say something based on my experience, I have joined a lot of bounties in the past that last for more than a month and I think it's not worth since during ICO times some projects have a hard time to get listed after the ICO and the fact that you promoted the campaign for months, you will feel frustrated knowing the price could possibly dump even if eventually it gets listed.

For IEO I think its okay for long term as long as the reward is reasonable since its guaranteed that it will be listed.

Yes, sometimes the hunters also feel annoyed and upset when the bounty project locks the rewards for months, because waiting is something that is very annoying and sometimes becomes a disappointment for everyone.

Maybe just maybe, I wrote article for relictum pro simply because the team are very hard-working and promising but many are fearing the project because many STO have sad stories in the end

I believe you have answered yourself. Duration is not a big issue for me as well but on weekly basis we must get paid for our efforts like we do in other campaigns. Without getting rewards for our efforts then what will be no point of talking about the duration of bounty campaigns and their promotions.

I mean most people here will be loving long-term promotions so that they will be having some assurance about having work for long-term. But, the rewards should be compensating those long period of time. For example, a three-month campaign pays some $100 whereas another one-month campaign also pays same $100 then what would be the better one which one we must choose?

I believe the quality of the project is a criteria here for consideration when choosing a bounty program (regardless of the duration of the bounty program). If the project is good and they are able to rise big funds from crowdfunding then obviously their rewards also will be at higher end.

I only care about the quality of the project, and also I am quite interested in their budget. If their project is good, I will immediately participate and do not care about the time of the campaign. Today it is very difficult to find good campaigns, most campaigns are now shit and the campaign lasts about 3-6 months.

Actually, a good project is always paying the handsome amount to bounty hunters. Still, most of the projects are not good and not paying of them due to nonserious about promoters, so always join those projects that have a good team and loyal with bounty hunters like CARTSI project.

Well, besides the quality of the project you promote. A project with a good set of a team is also one of the best things to promote long or short. It doesn't really matter anymore. The potential of a cryptocurrency will always be because of the team that founded it. If the team is great then promotion is the thing to consider long term or short term. Today, --bounty is not that profitable anymore. And the people are getting tired of shitcoins already. But again, if you really wanted to have a good investment via promotion. Indeed, try to promote projects with good teams instead.

Bounty hunters want security and that's why they want to advertise those short term durations with high promised pay reward. But, if you truly want security it's better to prefer long term durations with a secured escrow for the payment.

While having the right bounty manager, this is actually the combination that all of you want.

All bounty hunters will not get annoyed on the project that they promote if it's legit and has potential in the future. But, we are also aware that there is plenty of failed and scam project. Then sometimes we fall on those project and we even promote it for a couple of months. Are you willing to promote a project for more than 3 months and end up earning a few dollars? I guess it's no. As of now, I have seen different members who want to join in the signature campaign who pay in bitcoin and even me, I want to join because you can be guaranteed that you will earn profit unlike in bounty campaign who have few chances that will get success in the future. But, right now I join in GEO DAO bounty campaign and it was recommended by my friend here and I'm hoping that it will bring huge profit to me.

As long the project has guaranteed to be successful in the future I guess the duration of the campaign will totally don't matter.

3-6 months? I think that is quite long to wait, but its depending on you if you are really interested, beside most bounty campaigns does not require a lot of effort, if you join a signature campaign and you have to constantly post in 6 months, I think you will be bored, that's why I only prefer joining btc campaign that pays in BTC, and I think some are doing the same.

That’s right, no matter how long or short the bounties if you’re connected to a shit projects then your work will not pay off later on. There are some good projects before that they extended their bounty, and that makes them better. Profitable or not, its the choice that we make and its the project we support for bounty hunters keep working, you’ll get big rewards soon.

Long duration of promotion doesn't matter. Its all depending  the way they're promote it. The more effective marketing they do, it can be effected on their result on sales. If you an investor or just bounty hunter, make sure the project you choosen have good quality.

Quite right, there is no difference how long the bounty company will go, it all depends from the company that will conduct the bounty company, namely from their technologies, ideas, capabilities and much more, and of course a lot of depends from the cryptocurrency exchanges where these bounty companies will list their tokens, it is also very important now.

Exactly, that is why you need to change the subject of your thread, because it is very misleading, you said "don't hate long term promotions" and in the last sentence of your post you said it could be vice versa which don't make any sense to your subject. It would be better if the title of your subject would be "Background check is a must" to know what type if bounty you are going to promote, is it worth it or not at all, something like that.

I have 3+ years experience here and I would say that your post is BS.

I don't have any issues in promoting a long-term campaign. But there is a precondition though. The campaign manager should give a guarantee about the reward, or even better he should make a small prepayment in advance. Very few of the bounty campaigns are ready to do this and sadly, that means that we need to ignore any campaign which stretches for more than two months.

There will be no reason for anyone to hate long term promotions when there will be superb rewards for their contribution, or at least "enough rewards" for their contribution. But, as far as I have observed long-term promotions are paying only at the end of their campaign and which will be after few months still the rewards will be less than what weekly campaigns are paying for a week. In that case it must be definitely waste of time, and obviously everyone will start hating such a long promotions.

It must be a long-term request from altcoin bounty hunters for getting paid in ETH or BTC but no devs/project team is ready to listen such requests even they are doing crowdfunds in BTC or ETH. When there will be weekly rewards in BTC or ETH, I believe everyone will be preferring to work for long-term promotions as there will be no room for hating it.

I also got several projects within 4 weeks I was paid $ 200 and the big project that I got on was dimcoin I got around $ 5,000 net, even though I had to wait 6 months for the market. in my opinion the success or success of a project is not a long time because I have also worked on a project that is long enough until now there is no market.

I believe that it was in 2016 and 2017 that each investor could make a profit immediately after listing the coin, since he bought coins on pre-sale using 50 percent discounts, and sold on the stock exchange after listing several times more expensive.  The situation today has changed dramatically and investors get profit only when the project starts to work or when the coins of the project begin to attract investors and traders more.  But for this you need to wait a fairly long time and therefore I consider a long-term investment for a good project is a very good prospect.

Long term bounty payment was big i can't remember it’s happened in the many bounties and i particupated of those campaign. But i never forget about CREDITS bounty campaign most provably it was five months duration. And they raised huge and most of the participants got several thousands usd. A lot possibility of the success of long term projects. Less possibility you will get big payment.                  

I agree. The duration time for the promotion does not matter anymore as long as you are getting paid because that was all that matters right? Actually even short or long term duration, as long as the project you are promoting is reliable and legible, then you do not have to worry anything about because you are working into a good project. Lengthening the project promotion might come into a reason to expound the advertising time to be able to reach a wider range to be able to be noticed by potential investors in a sense that as more investment coming in will be a great benefit for both the project and the promoters (bounty hunters). So do not regret joining into a long duration campaign, what matters most it that you are getting paid and you are working with a good quality of project that is in need to be noticed by the crowd.

Lucky you. It varies on what project you are going to promote 14 weeks is a long time and most likely participants start to worry once project starts extending their campaign over and over again.

Nothing compares to the bounties during 2017 where most would only last for a week or two, 2 months the longest and is truely rewarding.

I promoted many project 14/15 weeks, at last the team has  shown many reason. Like we are sorry! we have no investors so we stop our project. It's very painful for a bounty hunter. For this reason i am not interested long term Promotion.        

What is obtained from a bounty campaign sometimes depends on the value of the allocation. There are bounties with large allocations and short campaign durations and many of them are asked by bounty hunters. The actual bounty income will be seen when the tokens have been traded in the market, and if the project is good and attractive to investors, in the end the results obtained by the bounty hunter will be large even though the bounty allocation is not too large

Even I have been waiting for those projects to increase their price, some will give a good profit to people and some will not able to recover their prices. That's why we should always choose the right project to hold it in the long term. There is no specific guarantee about the projects we are choosing the right one or not.

That is what many people who promote the project for long term promotions got. They help the projects t get the investor and attract many people to come to their project, but suddenly, they say that they cannot get many investors. That is sad, but that is what they get, and they need to be careful to select the project. Perhaps, promote a short term project will be the right choice but however, a short term promotion will not always pay the participants because sometimes, the team will lock the reward for some time because of something before they can distribute the tokens.

Not all of them are greedy, sometimes it takes too long to raise money needed to continue the development of the project, some projects even find it hard to reach softcap in months

Although your examples are a bit old (it will not be easy to get 1000usd from a bounty in 2020), I agree with you in principle... the bounty duration has nothing to do with the quality of the project or with the possibility to be scam or not... nevertheless there is one issue - the risk - as we know the majority of bounties are failures/scams/etc it will be higher risk to work longer on a single bounty, so short bounties offer less risk...
Besides, a lot can happen in 12 weeks...

Yes, I am actually not really interested in project promotion in the long run, because when it has been running for weeks and then stopped, it will be very painful for a hunter, but we also have to realize that every project that makes a promotion in the long run is a project that want their products to really go according to the plans they have put together well, not looking for reasons to stop the project halfway.

Most of the bounty hunters hates the long term promotion because they think that it is a scam. They want a more secured promotions like weekly campaigns and etc. Long term is kinda risky since you do not have any idea if you are going to earn from it or not. You cannot blame those bounty hunters who are afraid by it. They just want to secure their income and not waste their time.

I don't blame those who hate such bounties because many long time bounties  usually don't pay participants, for some it's another different story entirely, there are some on here that make the biggest money from long time duration bounties

People doing promotion because money and time is relative, when bounty program get red I believe time also become serious problem. We all want short bounty with easy task and get big reward, that's normal. I believe we hate long term bounty program not because time but about reward. If bounty running in long term period but using popular coin as reward, I believe many bounty hunter will join.

Obviously because of the fact that there are only good bounty now.
It's actually the probability of getting paid versus the money you will earn and IMO, it doesn't matter if hunters will earn less as long as the payment is guaranteed and popular coin that is already listed in exchange would be a good reward as it gives assurance it will be traded with a value.

Its not about the duration on how long you'll going to promote the project, its more on how legit the project is. Sometimes we are thinking long promotions are not worth it because of the doubt your effort will be wasted. We prefer a short term promotion to get the rewards without waiting for so long but we didnt realize that we are wrong for thinking that way.

What important is the project itself, if it has potential and you did your part to research before participating then dont think about how long you're going to promote the project because it will be worth it. As long so you're sure you'll get paid a worthy coins.

That's the ideal condition for bounty campaign participants but there are two problems, first, not all projects have sufficient funds to finance the bounty campaign and secondly there is no standardization for bounty campaign payments in this forum, if the forum community rejects bounty campaigns with payments using their tokens on this forum I am sure that slowly new projects will start paying participants in bounty campaigns with Bitcoin or Ether.

I agree the duration of a bounty doesn't determine if the project is good or bad.
But we couldn't blame others for hating it since almost every bounty participants have experienced promoting a scam project or being scammed by bounty projects.
It couldn't be help because the longer the project is the more time and effort they would put onto it and they could get scammed at the end of it.

Most of us taking part in bounties want projects whose promotions are briefly around 4 weeks but want to get a large payment.
When in fact projects that are long promoted are more likely to pay big, because developers have tokens sale time relatively long
time. Therefore we must be more patient if we follow the bounties, because good projects will promote longer so that token sales
can be maximized. That way can pay bounties participants in large, so it is equally beneficial.

You will be getting a decent payment when it can hodl the project properly. So many long term campaigns have been running by the crap project and so many people have made their complaints to the manager of the campaign. It's like a gamble and when you don't get a good result and i believe you will be feeling the same as others who would be blaming it. Open platform is the longest bounty campaign AFAIK.

Since 2018 most projects I promoted are up to 12weeks long duration and that doesn't bother me, the most annoying part is never getting paid after the long session, nothing is wrong joining such bounties it's just that most times it's a waste of time, since bounty hunting is all about luck's now I have no complains, just choose what suits you

The difference here is that on the long term projects you have no idea if you are going to make money or not and in return you are giving a lot more of your time than the short term one. In short term promotions you basically spend a lot of time but for a quick period and than you either make money or you don't however its usually less than a month so you can try it 12+ times a year.

However, when you promote a place for 3 months and you get nothing in return there is really no way to do that multiple times in a year, maybe 3-4 times a year at most. Nobody really says that long term ones are worse or short terms are better, there is nothing like that. The point here is that short terms are less risky because you can try more of them.

What we hated most when joining is not getting paid after having an effort and time. Absolutely true some bounty hunters not complaining even it's long term or short term the very important above all is at least getting paid of the service given. The good part in short term is you will know in a short period of time that your work will be rewarded or not.

It would have been a different story if the long term bounty durations pay bounty hunters fairly, no one will be complaining right now, in 2018 I've come across a bounty campaign that lasted over 8months, almost a year, it's really unfair

Of course, the quality of the project being promoted is very important and mainly affects its success, but the longer the project goes, the more likely it is to succeed. Why? The fact is that participants do not like to wait long and this leads to the fact that interest in the project disappears. This also applies to investors. Of course, we can say that enough time is needed for development, but if the project is really high-quality, then it makes no sense to lead its bounty company for too long, since success to such a project will come very quickly. Recently, almost all long-term projects left the market and could not show the result.

Sometimes they end up good and sometimes they end up bad, there is really no way to predict the end of these projects even if they lasted a year, it's all about gambling and lucks

I think you promote a wrong projects back in 2018, there are many promising projects back in 2018, almost all of them reached it's soft cap. Its the time also were the market are hype. Long term duration of the projects doesn't matter for me if I know that the project will give the payouts and their coins is valuable. Nowadays, we must choose the right project we want to promote if we don't want to waste the time and effort we used. It's not easy today to earn money unlike we used to.

Not all can be satisfy with different stories. Some hunters did some long term campaign and ripped some of the profits but other's got nothing out of a very long campaign. Me too, Ive prefer short term since I wanted to maximize different projects when joining. Imagine how long you are working and its gonna be a scam later on? Of course its quite frustrating if youll ask me.

What best now is join btc signature campaign that pays and have a long time duration. While for altcoin pick a shorter one, maybe a 2 months is thr max for the time being so you wouldnt regret doing effort.

I think personally with the current investor sentiment about ICO or IEO, if working on the bounty for too long does not guarantee that it will produce great results, there are many bounties that deliberately extend so that they can meet the initial funding to be in the crypto market.
for me the result of pure bounty is just luck.

Short term or long term, it's better to stick with short term bounties with good allocation rather than long term bounties. You wouldn't want to give your signature space to a long campaign that will end up disappointing. You could have used that duration to run two bounties.
You're wrong here. ICOs started performing poorly after second quarter of 2018, that was shortly after the 2017 bull run.
You must have been so lucky to have joined those project that did well.

I agree with you. for a period of time joining the bounty program is not a reference point that we will get a large profit when the bounty program is finished. but rather to the goals and development team of the program that we follow, when all team arrangements can be ascertained and the selling price of coins made is successful then we will get a lot of prizes even though we only follow it for 4 weeks.

If I think the duration of a project should be seen also because if a project with long duration but the pay is not appropriate then this will hurt us, and many of us see the project is about 8 week in length, the project is quite good because Payment that we get according to the time we spend, but not all projects can be so then we should see the quality first then can only join if the project is good for us to follow.

From what it's showing it's really a luck base participation, those bounty campaigns that extending are likely not gaining any investors so they need to continue being advertise and bring more noise about the projects, there's no assurance that after the extensions expected results will follow, if there's none then the team will not bring good result for the bounty hunters.

Some projects are not appropriate with the bounty rewards and other projects extend their bounty campaign which should be exact date of the end of the campaign. There are also projects that failed to reached their soft cap and its other one that bounty hunters should consider before joining. If the project looks promising and legitimate I personally promote it even it takes a long duration. It's all for us now which project we will promote so its better for us to do our own research.

What a strange topic. Here, it all depends not on the time of participation, but on the pool, maybe in one company allotted for all 5,000 dollars, and in another 50,000 dollars, it’s immediately clear where you will get paid more. So I don’t know what your strange attitude is. It also depends on the team and managers who can cheat. Well, not like not from time to time.

I dont really mind the duration of bounties campaign. But imagine if you run 16 weeks bounty campaign and ended into scam. It make me stressed if that scenario happen and no one want to face that scenario. The duration is not really matter but the authenticy is matter.

I think it is true the duration of bounty doesn't really matter if they are a great project or they could really give their participant the promised reward.
There is no way that we could see if the campaign would be worth it if we wouldn't do our own research and avoid the fake projects.

It really doesn't matter how long or when will a project ends. The quality and the development of a project that matters because if a project didn't become successful you won't get any good profit even it is long or short term, that is why you should make a right choice in picking a bounty campaigns.

I have long term bounties. First because hunters are not protected against another rounds of bounty or bounty being extended. Secondly - it is become common to divide bounty reward in 3 monthly batches...

Imagine, being half a year in bounty, than it is extended for few month, later it is announced that you will get your reward 1/3 each month... Plus to wait for listing. Crazy !

My suggestion - make 1-2 monthly rounds, pay tokens/coins, but keep them locked. This will prevent hunters from dropping the campaign and investors will not cry because hunters who dump the price.

My experience also same for long term project. Long term project paid high rewards than short term project. Bounty can't keep clam down in one project for long time, as rumors they believe different coin has more chances to success. In this bear market I can't see successful short term bounty 1,2 or 4 weeks. Long term has huge history of payment to bounty hunters.

It doesn't matter to me how long i can promote the project, the important is the project must be a legit, it will be paid off of your work with the project. If you promoted a scam project it will be a waste of time so dyor first.

I did have some coins that had pumped out wayback when i do earn those tokens in 2018 or or early 2019 which had make out some money when the market tends to recover.
Im aint expecting for those shitcoins to rise up but the good thing here is that someone do decide to pump it out then go back to its normal once again or shall we say a
single pump.

Duration on how you do advertise the project isnt really a serious connection yet you cant still be sure if those are legit or capable enough even they do tend to pump on further years.
You wont know if it did just pump out intentionally.

Authenticity isn't enough, a project might be too authentic with poor allocation. I've seen many 12 weeks bounties with just less than 100k$ allocation.
Giving reward from shitty allocation or nearly worthless reward too also bad.
I've seen a project that gave their hunters a different token and later swapped and promised hunters they were going to swap it for them but they didn't.

Bounty campaign, its success is influenced by many factors. We have to really understand each other's potential to get the best campaign that fits our portion of the ability. Allocation, duration, project quality, prize distribution system, Bounty Manager, are important aspects that must be analyzed.
Every year, the bounty campaign experiences a change in trend, for example, the bounty in 2017 is very profitable with many successful projects, it is very difficult to find at this time. So that it affects my choice to join a campaign, for now, I tend to choose a campaign with medium duration, 2-3 months, and which is ready for the product, has been listed on the exchange, and if possible payment of the prize after the bounty is finished. So the actual duration does not really affect my decision, as explained by the OP, what is important is the quality and certainty of payment from the project.

Long term bounty is not bad if the project is a real deal but if it will end up bad like the team abandoning the project, then that's a lot of waste effort. Even if you do your research, it is still sometimes hard to predict the team's direction as most of the times they are feeding good updates while at the back door they are not really doing good in terms of development. Long term or short term, it really depends on what project are you promoting. But at least do some assessment before joining them.

The duration does matter. Bounty programs may promise rewards, but might end up not paying the participants and go scam. We have heard around hundreds of such project where the bounty hunters were not paid a single coin despite of them working hard. Most of the time, the project itself turns out to be a scam. Now imagine you have been working as a bounty hunter for a project for more than 10 weeks, but then the developer decided not to pay the hunters or you have been kicked off without you not even know? How would it feel to waste your precious time for nothing?

But it will be difficult to know if the project will be a legit project because we don't have the right information about that. We can only participate in the project without knowing if the project can succeed or not, and we can hope that it will give a nice reward at the end of the campaign. There is nothing we can do except searching for the right project and participate in the campaign, so we need to be careful to select the project.

Bounty with a long duration might not interest me to join. There are a number of bounty campaigns that I know to this day are still running even though they have been started since early 2018 and in my opinion bounty hunters are not profitable because at the same time, hunters can do more than 1 campaign

Bounties with long duration is tiring and almost goes for nothing at the end. First more users enroll in the campaign thereby reducing the rewards, secondly such campaigns do not pay at the end of the day. Take current campaign even to ico participants they haven't received their tokens since 2018. Long campaigns without weekly or by weekly payments plan is not worth it.

I also think that participating in bounty campaigns that take more place than 2 to 3 months is a waste of time. I was mistaken once. participated in the PARQ signature campaign. I participated for almost 8 months ... Idiot ... I got a lot of tokens and in the end, now it's a scam project and my tokens now is 0 dollars

Agree with you. No matter short or long term duration, as long as you make profit, that's success. Just be patient.

It all goes back to the participants, I think if the project is good then the long duration of the campaign is not a problem for them but if the duration is long and the pay is not appropriate or the allocation is suddenly cut I feel they are very disappointed. So I see very few campaigns now have a duration of up to 5-6 months.

That's based on your experience, I understand it very well.

8 months? come on...what kind of bounty you have participated dude? a signature?
I feel you, maybe mine is not that long but I can still say its a waste of time and effort, but that's the reality, we can't control the price of the token, in fact in some of the bounty I participated I have millions of tokens but I loss track of the project now, maybe the team left it.

Just hope if the project can be trusted by the participants. I have experienced to see that the participants are getting deceived by the project even if that was getting a big success too. The duration is not a problem at all as long as the developer has a very good track history.

But if you are going to promote a project that has a long term marketing then you should make sure first that you are promoting a genuine project so in the end you will be getting thousands of dollars and not a shit tokens/coins.

Whatever the duration of their marketing as long as you are supporting a genuine project then it doesn't matter because in the end your time and effort will surely give you a good amount of profit. Others are hating the long term promotion because they cannot assure whether they are supporting the right project because if not it will be a disaster at the end, your time and effort will be in vain.

Thousands of dollars can be earned from shit projects too, there is a rule that bounty hunters must sell once trading starts and maybe buy back when price dips, keep tokens from bounties can end in big loss

Where that rule is mentioned? I mean I missed such rule and suffered big losses. I took a wrong role model for my crypto stash even I was aware of bumps and dumps. It is a lesson for my ignorance and laziness for not going for my own due diligence. If somebody would have guided me on these, probably I might have richer with another 1 to 2 bitcoins. Yes, I lost big money by holding bounty rewards.

No, Durations is problems because we can't sure that they will paid us for our effort of promoting thier projects. And also 2017,  18 and 19 are different now in 2020 there are many project become scam eventually and thier some project not scam but when they list thier tokens or coins price of this start to dump and become shitcoins /abandoned by Developers to make exit scam. That's why almost all bounty hunters now much prepare to get thier payment in Bitcoin or in other altcoins that listed in market already and also if this are escrow or manage by reputable BM.

I totally agree with the OP. It is not always about the time span of the project would run 'cause sometimes the project with the shortest path often became successful rather than the project who even have several months in their timeline. So before proceeding to any of this might as well study, take a look thoroughy, check carefully what the project behind and not only on the appearances so you won't be surprised if it turns out the way you expect it to by having the ideology of what you had checked behind. And you won't be blaming anyone else beside yourself 'cause you have all the necessary stuff before joining in.

Well, we cannot really blame the bounty hunters for being so mad about long term promotions due to the growth in numbers of scammers. Some experienced waiting for so long just to find out that the project was purely a scam amidst being successful. Before, there are only few scammers while now there are a lot already and that could be the reason behind their impatience.

We can still see campaigns having a duration of 5-6 months but there are only few bounty campaigns at the moment. There are only few number of people who are supporting such campaigns at the moment since there are lots of scammers nowadays dessiminated everywhere. No matter how good the project is, it will still be inconsiderate if the duration takes too long and the payment becomes too low.

Now a days it doesn't matter the duration of bounty. What's so ever is the duration, payment will not increase beyond the bounty pool allocated.
Also observed with few projects that they fail to raise enough funds irrespective of bounty duration.

I do not hate when the project adds a few week's time, even without adding the allocation given from the beginning, whether it's to wait for softcap, or hardcap. however, promotion time is also important. some projects make the promotion for months, even they do it round and round. however, I remained supportive when it was only a few weeks. but, when it increased for several months for no apparent reason, I don't think I support it.

Man, if you count in everything and check this situation with your logic you will understand that in case of taking part in 10 bounties a year you have 10 chances to earn something valuable. If you took part in 3 bounties at the same time, you will have 3 chances. That's simple :)

Mate you deserved award for such patience ha ha ;D Otherwise it’s not a easy to continuously working of 39 weeks. I think it’s your wrong decision because this wasn’t a guaranteed payment. @Parodium most of the bounty campaigns more than 12 weeks. And i think you unlucky because PARQ was good liquidity and decent team. Very sad to here that you wasted a lot of months.                     

I have never had a problem with the duration of the bounty period as long as the reward offered is proportional to the length of the period and the quality of the project is good. Indeed, everything can happen, including drama where prices do not meet expectations, but that is a risk. This is the basic thing that must be understood by bounty hunters so they don't often complain because they are trapped in various dramas that appear in a saturated market. Just do it with pleasure, if you're lucky you will get what you want, if you get caught scam, not paid, etc. that is part of the risk

You really never know the potential of the coin until it hit the market, whether you promote it short or long period of time, it's the project and the trust of the investors that will make an impact on the price, but right now so many projects are useless so it's more preferable to do short term so you can hop in the next one.

The right choice. We also need to think logically, extending the duration without a strong underlying reason can reduce the confidence of the bounty hunter, and of course that becomes a problem when the pool bounty is not added: D
Apart from that, before choosing to leave the campaign, make sure that the work we have done before can be saved. If not, then continue even with a heavy heart, hopefully we can get paid in kind.
Actually I am also not a problem with a long duration, as long as it is logical and in accordance with the roadmap related to the promotion and sales period and the rewards provided are comparable.

The main question is what will become a project after it collects or does not raise funds.
After all, even good honest and high-quality projects are sometimes not able to cope with the task of raising funds, which ultimately leads to the closure of the project.
But you could support this good project for a year or more. In any case, you will be upset and disappointed with such an unpleasant result.

I've seen a project that raised funds through IEO on an exchange, conducted a bounty, paid the first round and didn't pay all for the second round. Now there isn't any announcement or message from the CEO and the token is performing poorly on exchange. Many genuine projects always change after some time.

Generally, I agree with you.
You can't blame them because that's how the bounty work. Even after the collecting, selling is the worst way
When you enter a bounty you need to think long-term

At least for now that the market is still bearish, but choose the right bounty so holding long term will not be wasted.
In addition, always consider that the majority of the project in the market are does not have the potential, you should put a selling target as you can't hold them forever, at least you will get rewarded with your effort, I'm speaking of weak coins that you'll notice while holding it, and you can do that if you also do the monitoring.

Do not waste your time on longer term projects, most don't worth it, I've hunt for 6-12 weeks bounty durations since 2018 and till date only one good project turn very profitable for me, though there were bounties I never joined that turned successful

You shouldn't think like that, I've been involved in a few long term bounty. And until finally their project was successful and listed at the exchange. What you should care about is choosing a good project in this market because there are too many campaigns and bullshit projects, if you choose a good bounty, the time of the campaign will not be too problematic

I think this market needs a shock!
Maybe disappearing corona or maybe a really strong positive fundamental news. All we know is the market rising

all will depend on the project, I promote the bounty for 4 months in 2018 until now it hasn't paid off either. I understood that it was a long-term project and the team needed time for the problem. but the most important thing for bounty hunters is how clear the pay is.

Yes, to participate in a project, it would be very good if there is a short duration, because we will not feel bored in waiting for the reward, because a project with a long duration also does not guarantee that we will get a lot of rewards, because every project also has an allocation different.

I know some projects can be successful when they run for quite a long time, from promotions to campaigns but seriously to talk about this issue, the number of lucky people like you is too small, most projects running in the long run will fail or it will forget the people who contributed to it, service time is long and we do not receive the appropriate reward, very few people will accept. Even more people will hate such projects, they like short-term projects, extending the duration of a project in a market with too many factors that could affect is not a good idea

Truly i am agree regarding long term bounties which 6 months, Anyone can not blame long term projects promoters. After 2017 a few long term campaigns reached big fund and paid rewards on time. Currently i saw a campaign here a lot of high ranked members joined from first week and till now 22 weeks and provably these is last week. They will get expected rewards hopefully.                     

It truly doesn't make a difference to what extent or when will a project close. The quality and the improvement of a project that issues provided that a project didn't become effective you won't get any great profit even it is long or present moment, that is the reason you should settle on a correct decision in picking a bounty campaigns

you are right but I saw many long term campaign turned to failed and some projects turned to scam and some postponed their project and they didn't come back.Maybe social media bounty hunters will not feel sad but what about the signature campaign? after 6 months of work in signature he will get 0$.I think in this case bounty hunters should choose the campaign wisely other wise they will get zero rewards.

I do agree with it and the main concern is about the quality of the project and how long the promotion doesn't matter a lot in this case. I have been joining various campaigns and even if that was a legit campaign just run for short term promotion and it will be very profitable and it caused by that makes us do our task easier.

That is mean there are a lot of chance to gain high profit for this promotion way. May I know, how much project that you promoted at that time?

I saw bounty campiagn thread and there are some bounties which I think that are profitable for long term project like GOLD bounty, I know this project has been running 2019 ago and until now. The profit that participant get will be much in my opinion.

Im also bounty hunter and im also joined E3T but unfortunately im joined bounty in bad time. If we back at 2017 we will find many successful project and we received payment with good amount and at this time is not. Its not only talking about long term project or not but sometimes some project blame bounty hunter in the end of campaign. They call us dumper and trash. What is that ? I think that is the usual course when we are working and we expect our sallary.

You're absolutely right. Short or long isn't a guarantee we will get nice paid. In this moment I think almost all project disappointed us so we can't expect in 2017 or back to the previous years.

It is not really about the duration it is about the projects itself if it is unique and most importantly if it is legitimate. No matter how long you promote it if it is a scam you cannot earn at least a penny. So it is always about the projects, not duration. Anyways those times like in ICO days are gone. No bounties that give high rewards now. Maybe there are some but its very rare to happen.

I found a thread that lists some decent projects with potential I guess this will minimized the risk of getting scammed.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5228629.msg53916917#msg53916917

Who are involved in crypto as a hunters since long time, all hunters believe long term project is good but if failed than all your work for nothing. Short term or long term this doesn't matter. Quarter 4 of 2017, 8 weeks campaign was finished in weeks because funds rise in short term then all are rewarded for 8 weeks.

Hunters should focus on reliable projects which have future not on the duration. I don't agree with long duration bounties give you better payment and short duration bounties are not. I do some long duration bounty and got nothing how about that then. So don't think about duration if you love your job. Try to join on those project which are looks promising and have some future.

Also i don't blame if someone don't like long duration bounty cause after 25/30 weeks work sometimes you got zero payment from them which is too much frustration thing for hunters (Cause maximum projects are scam/failed now days). And not just hunters, many times BM also lost rhythm on his/her work.

I agree that the duration of promotion projects does not guarantee the reward we receive. Long term promotions not necessarily
get a greater reward from short term promotions. So choose quality projects that we will promote. So the payment can have better
payment, do not choose projects based on the duration of the promotion will not be a guarantee.

I'm not have any complaints with bounty campaign that last from 1 to 3 months. It's a enough long time period for a bounty campaign. I hate campaign that last from 6 months and above that, it's waste of time, no any good and legit project need a super long bounty campaign.

Yes, right you are. But there are some people who do many bounties so that they may feel problem for long term bounties. On the other hand, you earn hundred dollars that is exceptional because maximum time we saw, we did 12 weeks bounties or round 1,2,3,4 bounties. But at the end we may got only 20$. From the beginning we can not guess which campaign will hit or not. So long term is problem.

There is nothing to hate about long term bounty campaigns anymore because since years ago now only few projects payed and list on exchanges for hunters to sell their share of tokens, now you have to hold on for long time, it's becoming something we need to get used to

Now there's a lot of long-term bounty, but its budget is too low for us to participate. And if we are involved in those projects, we will most likely work for free for a long time. It is better to choose short-term bounty to join, it's much safer

in my opinion not a long or short project duration to get good results, but the quality of the project itself, because I have been working on a project that runs 8 weeks and when the market opens I get $ 5,000, from the project.

I agree with you, duration dosen't really matters so far the project you are working for is a good one with amazing Usecases and a competent team that will pull through at the end of the tunnel. The over thousand dollar you earned was in 2018 and to be honest it is hard and rare for any bounty to pay up that much now with the recent downtrend that has taken over cryptocurrency market. The painful thing is working for many months without being paid, i think this is why most hunter opt in for short duration bounties.

Yeah, it dont matter how long the bounties are because it doesnt really matter and the duration did not depend how much the bounty reward is going to be.

Overall the project is just depending in the ICO or the funds that is earned in the websites during the campaign, pretty much the average duration was 3months-6month before you could received the bounty reward and also we know that their are project that takes years before they pay, except projects or bounties that dont really pay.

Back in the day 1 month bounty could earned you a big amount of reward already but it is already almost impossible to joined a legitimate bounty that actually pay since mosts of them today are just scam. It doesnt matter today since we dont really do bounties anymore since most of them are scam or in the end the token are just ending up as a dead token.

Like you already pointed out, it doesn't matter the duration of the bounty as long as you could earn a reward at the end, see, the problem with long duration bounty is it will really sucks to campaign for a bounty for more than 2-3 months and ended up to be a scam of worst case shit,
If the duration was short and the bounty turn to be scam or shit worthless coin, you haven't wast so much time promoting it, which you could have use to promote other project, unlike longer duration bounty, this to me is the difference.

Everyone is different. I understand that you can wait that long and that’s good, but there are people who can’t hold on for that long and they just want to quickly get their payment maybe due to one situation or the other.

Just like when I saw some people that were talking about Hodl and how long they can hold their coins, I saw people that said they can’t hold for long because sometimes they see themselves in situations where they will be needing that money to settle some issues. So, it is not always the same for everyone, some can have patience and some can’t, and I don’t blame those that can’t hold that long.

Actually people would be willing to join in a bounty campaign even if it will take time to get the reward or to promote it as long as they are guaranteed with a good reward, the thing is, its not, most of the time, either the price will drop or the team will leave the project, so in the end, bounty hunters will only be wasting their time. Everyone of us values our time, we want to be compensated on the effort that we invested.

let's look at this way, investors invested money on a certain project while we invested time promoting the project, but both wants money as their profit.

In my own simple opinion, i do not really think it is about the duration of a bounty program.
Instead it is about the type of product or project that is being promoted.

Today, there are close to zero valuable projects to promote (atleast 2% real project). It is up to bounty promoters to find reliable ones to stick with.

As long as that project is good, I believe the timing of the bounty will not be a problem at all. Just like my campaign is in, they have a 3 month period for the campaign and attract a lot of participants because their project is good and their token has been listed at various exchanges.

 
   In my opinion bounties should be long! When something is new, time is needed for people to pay attention on that,
long bounty campaigns are good because sooner or later word about project is spread everywhere.
  I think duration and organization are important. Projects should split their funds in that way to have longer but lower
paying campaign, than to have short and high paying campaign. When it's short it can spread same when it's long.

In OP case I think he or she was among the first that dump first that's why he make that huge profit, that's one thing about bounties that aren't quality enough, if you can dump quickly you will make good rewards for sure

Long term promoting bounties can either bring good or bad results, all the same it depends on how good the project is, after doing some research you have to pray for luck, but I'm against leaving out long duration bounties just because they are long, what if they become successful?

I also do not like long-term projects. You need to understand the structure of the project in the near future. And money also has a different value over a long period. Great risks are the result!

therefore using unused money is one of the best strategies for long-term investment, if you are a trader it may not be necessary,
but for investors it needs to be learned, the crypto currency project is still fairly young, and there is still a long way to go

I guess you are saying this because you actually get reward that worth it for participating in a long time campaign that eventually pays. There are other stories as well in which you will participate in a project for a long time but will end up getting peanut or nothing. It is just being lucky.

Hello, is the E3T project trading on any exchange yet, and how about their exchange launch? I had participated in the campaign and was a bit tiring to me. Don't say you made some $$ until you have found a market to exchange this otherwise, it may just be a theoretical figure.

I perfectly agree with your opinion. But considering the fact that one could invest over 3 months promoting a project and still get nothing out of it, it's wise to promote for a lesser period of time.

I've come to realise that there's no perfect indicator for a good project. We only look out for some key indicators, but that doesn't guarantee anything. To be on a safe side, it's best to also consider the duration of the bounty before making a decision.

yes it all depends on the quality of the project, long or short duration is not a problem but I don't really like bounties that have a very long duration, because most do not provide commensurate results

At least they pay even though the payment is not right. Better to be more careful in choosing a bounty campaign, especially if the duration is quite long. My advice if you are going to take a bounty that has a long duration, you should choose a bounty manager who already has trust in this forum.

That would alright with others but that is not right, paying less than what is promise is just like stealing the effort of the people who supported them.
Now, you have to ask, can you still trust them, they raise the money, besides its the investors money and investors are aware of the promotion and every promotion requires a payment, I think they have to think of their reputation than the amount of money they'll be able to save.

We should choose the campaign of reputable managers, whether it is long-term or short-term. Never take part in new managers' campaigns because the chances of you getting paid are low. Most of those managers will become scams after the campaign ends

With the number of bounty hunters, I think we only have a few reputable campaign managers in the forum, so not all of them can work under them, also reputable manager has a high qualification on accepting the bounty campaigners, so that is another thing. In the past actually, it's not considered but now that the competition is quite big due to the few number of bounty that are successful, some bounty hunters will just end up joining a bad campaign.

Recently I  saw a lot of new bounty coming from Bounty Detective. It seems they are a new manager at the forum, but they are having a lot of good and successful bounty. Sometimes you should give the opportunity to new managers, so look for campaigns based on your experience. Do not rely too much on the person who manages it

The more the campaign will run for long months and once it is scam or failed the bounry hunters worthless their effort because they did not get nothing but if the campaign run for shoet of period of time only if that scam they can join again new campaign that will be possiblw for them to pay a good reward or having a legit campaign.

I agree with you! Relying on bounty managers is not a good idea, you have to choose the better project for good profit! Sometimes a reputed manager may bring good bounty campaign but not every time! For example, look at the Arteezy! He brought two high-value bounty campaigns called Harmony and Tokoin. So, hunters started following him blindly, and joined by toppling in Arteezy's other campaigns like CitiOs, IAT, Xcard, Bizpaye and so on, and all those bounty campaigns were failed or scam.

Bounty Detective team is new, but they brought a couple of good campaigns at the same time, even they guaranteed the payment in ARCS, KingCasino and other campaign's!  Though HEX had several scam accusation but yet HEX gave a huge profit in this crucial time. One of my known guys earned 1500 USD from HEX campaign!

Is this a joke? What do you really expect from the bounty hunters? Do you want them to toil around, without any payment for 12-13 months? I would have agreed to long-term promotions, if the payment was guaranteed. Can the promoters guarantee a minimum amount for each of the bounty hunters? I am not talking about very large amounts. Even 5% or 10% of the promised bounty may be enough. They can keep this amount in an escrow. But then, none of the promoters are ready for that. They just want slave labor from the bounty hunters.

It hurts if the payment does not match what has been promised, of course I have experienced it. Sometimes there are several campaigns that reduce payment right at the end for various reasons. But what what can we do if this unexpected thing has to happen. Trying to protest to the gift giver, they just say "I'm sorry, a lot of unexpected things that have to be considered".

It doesn't matter, even short term bounty durations are now disappointing bounty hunters nowadays, either long duration or short duration what matters is making profits or good rewards out if them

New managers are not going to scam your money right away, any smart person would know that if you became as known as being a bounty manager, you will be getting paid, maybe it will not be quick at first but you got your foot in the door, so you are making money with that deal, lower than stealing all the money obviously but you are making money with it, however if you wait and not scam anyone and get another job and another job and continue like that you are going to have a stream of income that will be a lot more than any other job you can get.

So, new managers gets my seal of approval after their second bounty, if a person does two decent bounties without an issue, the third will be without an issue as well. Obviously project could be a scam, but that is not managers fault.

Long term promoting and short term it's doesn't matter even if there was more planing roadmap with processing activity. I was seeing some projects after long term later death again i see only one month successful token sales with listing popular exchange.

long duration or short duration is not a big problem in a project because the most important thing in a project is to be able to succeed in accordance with the interest in their white paper and the product is sold out in the market.
however, in terms of prize hunters the long duration will be a big problem, because prize hunters are not patient waiting for the tokens of their hard work while promoting the project.

Btw, in 2018 you promote Airwallet for more than 14 weeks and you get more than a thousand dollars? it's an extraordinary job and really you're lucky to be able to make thousands of dollars.
but are you sure about that, while your account was born in 2019

Reward most times is not based on duration of the campaign. What's matters is the genuineness and soiidity if a project in term of team, ideology and many more.

The quality over quantity logic wins everywhere, the duration of long term campaigns should be compensated with the reward payment. The short term bounties usually don't have the strict bounty rules but it doesn't make sense to join if there is no future vision or perspective after a few months. Cutting the participants or lowering the bounty reward pool will cost bounty hunters time stress.

Just as it happens to long term bounty, the same is seen happening to short term bounty. You cannot generalize because of that singular experiment. Had it been @Op gave two to three instances of each, the truth would have been established. As a matter of fact, will have been able to conclude if others come up with more confirmations.
That a bounty long does not mean it will be profitable and that it only ran for a short time does not mean it will pay well.

It depends on what type of project you are into. Long or short duration, it has nothing to do with how much you will get especially if we are talking about token paying campaigns. Very few can really push thru their project and be listed with good value in the market. And if you are considering the risk, sometimes it is better to join short-term projects. At least in case they will not be successful, you haven't wasted your effort much.

This is true, whether the works is long duration as long as the time of promotions have been paid and compensated based on his work then there is no problem. Just like other said, there are no short cuts here. Its very rare to see new projects that have a short duration and you carn so big that is impossible. Of course there is a chance but be realistic when creating a promotion for certain bounty. Not all campaigns can give you a solid profits, maybe if your lucky then can happened but always based on the concept and potential of the project you are promoting.

For me, short-term projects are like long-term projects. If we don't do our research very carefully before we get involved, it will all take us a long time. I like good projects that run bounty in the long run because they offer a very attractive budget

For me no, the time and effort you spend matters as our time is very important.

We will always do some research and for short term bounty, at you'll know early if the project will succeed or fall, in terms of reward, I don't think there is a big difference of promoting short term vs long term, a certain bounty campaign would not give much reward especially at the status of the market now.

There are many kinds of cryptocurrency longtime projects i don,t know they are actually good or bad these we before we will do the work know the details of that project well know about their website but i think short time project is much better than long time project than long time project. Maybe, but the right times are not good, but the suffering ico project .There are a lot of ICO project  that are currently stealing people's money in cryptocurrencies so we have to look at these and then work.

But I can't really understand whats good about the deal - long term bounty.
don't you think long term investment would be more profitable than long term bounty?

actually not always like that. when you support a scam project, then you will understand why the promotion in a very long period of time, as well as being extended enough to make us stressed, especially if the pay is not worth it. It might be good for you to get more than  hundreds of dollars because the bounties are extended, however, know that many bounties are extended, but the pay is not worth it. I am more supportive of bounties that run according to their initial strategy, and don't change.

yeah, like you said, extra-time will be stressful especially if the pay isn't worth it. so i prefer the bounty with a fairly short promotion period. We all know that in the past few years most projects have not worked well and some of them have failed or as you say scam project.

that's why i prefer to promote projects that have a short amount of time so it's not a waste of time and i also won't be too disappointed when the results i receive don't match expectations.

Long term promotions especially bounty campaigns are hard; you cannot just say dont hate, when you do not know the average experiences of bounty hunters.
On this platform, there have been long promotions that ended up not paying, or not listing or exit scamming.

From keplertek (over a year bounty) to numerous examples, long promotion has seem inevitable scam.
I won't indulge anyone not to join bounties, just do your own research, and decide whats best

For me experience matters because most of the time it gives you a lesson and a lot of ideas and knowledge that can help to your self to the future campaigns and more conflict you will face in the future. @OP it is good that you already handled a bounty campaign which is good because you gained knowledge how do you properly make the campaign good in a long run also payment is just an extra payment on your hard work.

It will be very painful if you promote a project for 12 weeks and it end up a scam, I guess that's why many prefer 4weeks bounty duration to safe time but blockburn and Spyce were 4weeks, look what happened to them in the end

LOL... if a project needs 12 weeks or 24 weeks of promotion, then most probably it is a scam. Good projects need 4 weeks, or at the most 8 weeks of promotion. I have been active here since 2017, and from what I have seen not a single bounty project that stretched over 6 months gave good rewards to the participants. SELFLLERY bounty is the perfect example. It went on for more than 1 year.

I avoid long-term bounties because most of them end up as scams after collecting cash from investors they disappear into thin air. I talk from experience. And once any bounty am in extends its duration without any corresponding increase in the bounty pool, I stop promoting that bounty. It is a bad sign, just like bounties which do not update their spreadsheets too. Short and simple is good for me.

If you say duration doesn't matter,you could be right but in my opinion I think short duration bounties pay more most times, reason is as short as a bounty is,before more people will know about it,the bounty is already ended and the reward pool will be shared among those few that registerd but in long, as the day go by,more people tend to register which at the end help reduce the bounty pool reward because more people to share from the reward pool.

i promoted E3T project and i earned just 3usd. unfortunately, the project has been delisted from decoin exchange. the truth is the duration of bounties does not matter and what really matters is the project outcome and integrity. commitment and determination of the project owners will prove a huge effect on how the project does. i think the long term bounties pay more than the short term bounties.

Of course that's not a problem, if they pay for it.
I also have experienced, but somewhat different from you. After a long campaign duration, payment must also wait for 6 months after the campaign. Within a period of several months, they changed the payment system from wallet to platform with a certain time limit. While we did not know there was a change in time. After a few days past that limit they no longer respond. End of story, they don't pay.

The developer team now uses various systems in payment to bounty hunters. Some pay as soon as the campaign ends or after listing and some pay after 6 months and some pay in stages. Perhaps the intent of the developer team is to implement a payment strategy to prevent dumping from bounty hunters

I don't see much of a relationship between the duration of the bounty campaign and rewards. Everything, as always, depends on the success of the project, timely and fair payment of remuneration and bounty manager.

It seems to me that long-term bounties are an indicator of the team’s attitude towards the project’s perspective. Therefore, I cautiously take part in long-term bounties. I like short projects more. Even if they don't succeed, I will not regret too much my personal time spent on them.

Bounty hunters will prefer a short-term campaign because they can work on other campaigns. By joining many campaigns, bounty hunters have the opportunity to get coins or tokens that are legit and can be sold at exchangers because many campaigns don't end up listing at exchangers.

if you apply long-term metoede from the results of the bounty campaign then it will not give more good results when it has increased prices you can sell it and can make a profit withdrawal before the price collapses again and will only make you regret it.

If there is an option to promote a good project with short duration I'll go for it, but with the current bounty condition now, I always prefer short term promotion so I can do a lot of campaign because you cannot be sure of all the projects now, some looks good but end up bad, some look good but end it profitable.

Time is not important for bounty, if you analyze and find a good campaign, you will definitely not waste time with it. And just like what you said, short-term campaigns can become scams just like Blockburn, it also makes us waste time.

In joining a project, don't look at its duration, but the quality of the project will make us stay in the project to completion. Duration is not a problem, the important thing is the project we are promoting is really real and can provide satisfying results for bounty hunters. hopefully we are not caught up in a scam project that in the end we will never get anything.

Well, if the bounty campaign run for such long time, the risk of wasting time will become great because there is always possibility the bounty is scam. Hunters choose short term campaign because they want to see real payment in bounty campaign although the reward not big, than the long term campaign with huge reward.

hunters often get blinded by the promotion  .

when they see that bounty is paying and only have a short duration of existence , they will grab it whilest they can earn more on the other one with a longer duration   .  i guess thats one of our trait  . we love easy money   .  having an initiative like this do also make you a better person because it does not make you look like you are  greedy  .  you arent greedy because you still grab the oppurtunity even if its small  .

Its not about the duration of the campaign but the quality and legitimacy of the project to become worth for our time and effort because thats what matters. We can earn huge for long duration campaign if the project is real otherwise its a total waste of time and you will only have regrets for promoting it for so long. So how to spot a good project? Extensive research, it can lead us to good projects.

Why do you think short-term campaigns are not scam? I have seen many short-term campaigns become scams after the end of the campaign, like block burns. They make bounty with 4 weeks and then they delay delivery for 3 months or more. As long as you find a good campaign, long-term or short-term campaign, it doesn't matter

Yes, that's right, as long as the campaign is good, the duration is not a problem, because what is a problem in each campaign is that it is not paid after the campaign ends, and is often delayed when the token price is in expensive condition.

It really doesn't matter if a bounty is runs in a short or long periods because there are really long period bounties that gives you good rewards in the end of the campaign. The only reason why there are bounty hunters who hates long term promotions in bounty campaigns is that they participated in a long period and only end up unsuccessful or scam. So they rather choose short period bounty campaigns for them not to waste a lot of time even it is unsuccessful or scam.

Exactly, I was never too concerned about the timing of the campaign. As long as it is a good campaign, I will definitely participate and promote their projects without worrying about it.

but there are some cases of bounty campaigns when they are distributed to participants. The tokens that they get are still locked and can only be opened when IEO is finished or when the fundraising is complete, meaning that you can get the results of what you are doing for a very long time and the risk is scam, Hopefully the bounty campaign that implements such a system does not disappoint the participants.

Devs locking out the bounty tokens is fine for me as long as the coin has a good volume, but if the volume is good enough in the first place they probably won't lock the tokens, Devs should make it clear in the first place that the token will be lock after distribution and they shouldn't abuse terms of conditions of the campaign.

Agree, if the bounty campaign requirements were clear from the start, I think bounty hunters can understand why those requirements are done. But if the bounty payment terms always change, I think this is what makes the hunters confused and sometimes angry with changing conditions

You should participate in well-evaluated and potential campaigns. Don't be too concerned with the timing of that campaign. If their campaign is to last several weeks, then surely its budget is also very large to suit the participants.

Both short and long bounty durations do disappoints, it's a matter of luck but do not be lazy to join long term bounties, sometimes they do pay, better focus on the use case of a project than how long you will work

Yeah, bounty duration is not a problem, the important thing is the project that we participate in has good potential. So before deciding to join a project, we must first examine all aspects of the project, from the team that joined the project, whitepaper and the concept carried by the project.

That's correct but joining a longer term bounty and getting nothing would make you frustrated. That's why it's better to join a multiple of short bounties in the same amount of time than a longer one. About 75% of ICO bounties are not paying at the moment and risking half a year doing bounty for an ICO is a sure way to hate bounty overall. Either go for weekly paid bounties or join the bounties that would run for a couple of months at most.

It is true that it all depends on the project and its quality.
no problem, the duration is short, but the project is good, then you will still be paid.
long term also does not guarantee that you will be paid more.
the worst part is that you cannot get paid.

Lazy is not an option for bounty hunters, but if a bounty with a long duration is sometimes paid for and sometimes not, then it is also almost the same as a bounty that has a short duration, only if a bounty with a long unpaid duration will more painful than those of short duration.

That was what I thought that long term campaigns can earn high reward but not true. It's depend the quality of the project short or long term campaign the important is the project.

I think that you are right because people don't know what is the meaning of long term promotions in bounties and I think that is they are missing out because they don't know that they can earn more with long term but theyust know how to wait because it takes long time before you have profits.  But I think that they should be prepared and  I think that we should teach them to be patient. Patience is a very key player here in cryptocurrencies because you will know that you will earn more money if you have patience in your heart and mind because you can wait and save money until the moment that you can earn.

Yes, the quality of the project is something that must be seen after the duration of the project, so do not just look at the duration, but the quality must also be seen so that bounty hunters do not feel tired at work.

That's right.Short-term projects can never make a good payment. All the time I watched.The IEO  price of that project is good A good payment can always be expected from them.A good payment for that depends on the project.

It always depends on the success of the ICO. I have same experience with long term project with thousand of dollars but also experience to be left with no rewards. For me it doesnt matter how long the duration is, what matters most is that we are compensated for our efforts regardless of the result of the project.

Personally I don't prefer bounties which are more than a month or six weeks. I think airwallet which you are saying is kind of an exception that you managed to make good amount of money.

I also had the same thought, but if a bounty campaign has a good background to sell in the long run, I think it would be a more option to avoid excessive worries and make me not have to hesitate with long-term investments. Remember, that happens if the bounty has good quality. If not, I think it will just waste time

I also think that the success or failure of the Bounty project does not depend on the short and long term. Many times good reward are obtained by promoting short-term bounties; Again, good rewards are not obtained by long-term promotion. In fact, it depends on the overall theme of the project. I personally prefer short-term or maximum 10-12 weeks bounties, because I have never received a satisfactory reward for promoting a long-term bounty project.

btw it also depends on the project that you are taking, sometimes good projects can turn bad and vice versa. because as a bounty hunter not only depends on the project, that's also if you are lucky after promoting the project for months. if not? then you will also waste your time for that long. need to pay attention to that

It's not about hating it, but people currently prefer short-term projects because they expect quick pay.
and the average project doesn't make the campaign longer than 2 months either, they know if the hunters fear for too long that their project is not real.

But if a hunter promoting a project for more than four months but the project team decides to hold their rewards further more without announcement on distribution then we can feel the real reason why people hate long term bounties.But nowadays whether its short term or long term people are not ready to join because they know they will end up with getting scammed or the team will be refused to pay the rewards until it reaches no value on exchanges.

That relectum seem to promote for a long term, I wonder if its worth doing on your part because certainly there isn't an assurance to this campaign. I rarely see people discussing 5th generation blockchain, they may have no idea about it or its just not very interesting because there is no real difference.

Long term promotion could be a waste of time really. Its best to just write a blog entry for it if you are interested of the coin but wearing the sig more more than 6 months is just not for most of us here.

long durations sometimes become obstacles for prize hunters who can't wait to receive tokens after promoting a project. for me personally it depends on the project itself, if the project is in my opinion worthy to be followed then the long durations is not aproblem.

The root problem about long term campaign promotions , the team are so greedy . Bounty hunter's just wasting thier time and effort for waiting much long duration campaign in exchange for nothing . Sometimes its a matter of good concept of project in short term can be useful enough to pay the bounty hunter's . Judging from my own experience /research  bounties with long time duration always disappoints,bounty hunter's . But exception is every where . Thanks

Airwallet? I also own this token, but this token is useless with no value, so what you are talking about thousand of dollars from this campaign? Where did you sell your tokens?  ::)

hold the results of the bounty campaign will not always run smoothly and can not always get a lot of profit, it's better when you get the results then you should be able to exchange it and can make a profit withdrawal from what you have done before you regret it.

I agree with you, the entire cryptocurrency market is unpredictable and so is bounty hunting, i think everyone has had a taste of such experience. Duration dosen't really matter, it's only turns out to be painful when you promote a project for a long time and it end folding up, with a short duration bounty, you can easily move on as you are not really attached to the campaign

It really depends on the project, whether it's long term or short term. The longer you work for something, the higher rewards you earn, vice versa. It is true, but the fact that you're endorsing scam projects for a long time and receive nothing at all, damn, that's a waste of time and effort, and a very disappointing one unlike to short term bounties, where when it turned out to be scam ones, at least you got to waste shorter time, less effort yet still very disappointing but you can move on fast and look for some decent ones.

well it all come down to the project itself and management of the campaign if the campaign is managed professionally there will be not much issues. The problem start when you have worked for lets say 2 months and at the end you came to know the distribution has been delayed due to some x.y.z reason.  

Pundix, functionx and origin and i can name few other which i have participated in the past all ran for long period of time and bounty hunters got good rewards in the end. The main thing here was communication they kept the thread updated and informed the participants via telegram and solved their issues.  

almost all bounties run from one to three months, I think it doesn't matter if the project or their tokens are already in exchange, and the project runs well, but if you get a bad project, then your time is wasted, that's the risk

We can't be for sure still abut that because coin can die. Blockburn was in the exchange and although its campaign only runs for a few weeks while the coin is in the exchange the coin almost died already after the campaign.

Relictum isn't yet on the exchange, it's amazing how a promise by the team made bounty hunters came to promote them.

We prefer short term bounty promotion because many long term bounties were scam.
The longer the scam bounty run, the more hunters lost their time and efforts if they don't get their reward.
I personally don't hate long term campaign, it will be a good campaign if it is real.

Different periods of different patterns and different rates paid, don't be surprised by the current conditions. many were present and ended up failing due to lack of calculation following careful preparation, it depends you now want to spend your time helping to raise them.

actually depending on the project is not a matter of duration.
I prefer to promote a decent project even though the duration is fast or long.
some people might prefer promoting a short-term project, no matter if it's good or not.

In my opinion, more or less the reward actually does not depend on the time of the bounty program, it depends on the quality of the project, the funds from the investor. In other words, if a bounty program is short but has called for the funds to hit their hard cap, it is actually better than a long bounty program. Therefore, I personally prefer a shorter bounty program.

The quality matters a lot but in this case i will try to remind you if the total staktes in the campaign will also determine how much you will get that dude. AFAIk if the quality of project will determine the price of token too and this will be determining how much we will earn from our work. Long term bounty program means it doesn't get enough demand.

I never look at time. I study only the project. The team is important to me, what contribution the project makes. In general, all the important aspects as an investor. Time = money. They say this for a reason.

Yes, time is like money, because for anyone that time is a very valuable capital, so who has never seen time is a person who is royal and extravagant and stupid, because if someone does not value his time, then he will not appreciate anything else.

I value the time that we promote the project, what if we have to promote for a year and the project is guaranteed a success, can we still promote that long? We are losing a lot of opportunity especially if the reward is not that high, that is why we want it short so we can try to promote other projects and earn more, actually, we don't want to be bounty hunters all the time, if we consider this as a job, we also hope soon we will retire with enough money to enjoy our retirement, so we are looking and hoping to hit something big.

Yes the short term campaign is safe, time is more valuable so we should to keep an eye on the time. I haven’t received payment in a campaign this was long term almost 4 months. We know also reliable bounty didn’t payed sometimes, long term is didn’t suitable right now. Will choose short term projects.         

Actually I also think duration doesn't matter. Actually most of the bounty project duration is 4 weeks or 8 weeks. But I have seen some projects that run for very long time but it gave the user a good amount of profit. But this is not always true. I also promote some projects that worth nothing at the end of its long promotion. But I actually do not like those project that runs for too long.

there are various methods to be able to trade without having to monitor the conditions of the exchange so you can only see in the morning and when you want to sleep and only make buy and sell orders at the exchange so that when prices fall or when prices go up you will still be able to get profit .

I don't mind promoting a single bounty project for months, getting paid is my top priority, I know some projects will end up wasting your time and energy but we should learn to adjust as we see new challenges, I don't see anything wrong promoting long term duration bounties

No one would be complaining about these long-term promotions, if the payment is guaranteed. But don't you guys think that asking someone to work without any payment for 12 months or 18 months is a bit too much? And the chances of getting a reward later can be very low, looking at the state of the cryptocurrency market. I would definitely say no to such campaigns.

Everyone does prioritize payment on the bounty project, so promoting the project for months is not a problem as long as it is paid when finished, the problem is when we have been working for months but not paid, this is what makes many people reluctant to join the project with the duration the long term.

I don't agree with your opinion because long term bounty means higher reward and that's what bounty Hunters want. If the project wants to promote itself few more months then it becomes opportunity for us. I was part of many long durational bounties and fortunately I got enough reward for my work so I hope it's always good to accept the work then it doesn't matter of it's durational period.

We know it all depends on various factors. Short duration does not mean small rewards, nor does long-duration always give a lot of rewards. It all depends on the allocation, project quality, and market acceptance. That is why we should do an in-depth analysis before deciding to join a campaign.

Even though now there are lots of drama and unwanted things related to the bounty campaign, we just enjoy it, at least we have tried. We don't know which luck is on which path, so if you try your best and do your best analysis then be patient there will definitely be benefits waiting.

The duration of the bounty doesn't really matter as long as you know you are promoting a good project. But you can't blame other bounty hunters if they are being impatient. Also, we must understand that the funding stage of a project is crucial because this is where they will gather their funds in developing their project.

yes you are right it all depends on the quality of the project, product and team performance as long as the project is still under development. if the development can be successful, of course many people will be interested so the price can be expensive

Peeps, do not participate in unnecessary long term promotions
A serious project would conduct only 4-8 weeks Bounties and the max can be 10 weeks

Anything other than that is a pure waste of time

I agree. It doesn't really matter how long or short the duration of the promotion is, as long as the bounty project have a good quality and credibility which is also good in terms of payment, then the long wait is worth it. But many of us here are looking for fast and easiest way to earn money through getting into bounties so we cannot blame them if they will already get irritated or cannot wait any longer because of long or extending project promotion duration. But if we will just be talking about the payment, long or short duration will be good because the important thing is that you are getting paid for your work done in a fair manner. If the payment will be at a weekly basis, then long term promotion will really be a great thing to have which will be providing long term source of income. The point is that, better choose project promotion duration based on your own preference.

I participated a bounty that last 3 months and that bounty went well and the allocation for the was pretty huge as well worth it for the long term work.

You just got lucky in that long duration campaign. Yes, it's right that the duration of a promotion campaign won't guaranteed you a success but there is a good reason why only a few coins with long duration campaign succeed. Too long, people would lose their interested. Too short and no one would notice the coin. I think there should be a balance for the duration.

Of course, there are many projects like that, so don't be too concerned about bounty time. Just look at the quality of the project, if it's a good project then everything will be fine and you'll never waste your time on it.

Guys, don't waste your time on long term promotions. :(

Yes, this is the reality of bounty hunters on 2020, barely anyone making rewards which is convertable after token distribution happens and most of the time it won't even gets happens.

Every long term bounty was 2019 year and i know some bounty end after 20-22 weeks later. But hunter not happy there project because after listing no value and price failed everyday. So we need analysis project management and never upset how much during bounty weeks.

The idea of long term promotion is not bad because sometimes it takes time for a project to reach the masses and other investors. This is a good factor to help bring onboard large investors and users. It is good to include the duration of the bounty program during the initial stages because it only turns to irritating when it becomes extended almost at the end of the bounty program.

Most Bounty Hunters, would tend to a shorter term promotions.
its for them to be available, and able to promote other projects for bigger profit.

for some longer term promotions, means bigger profit.
that is why it still okay for them
its depends on what they prefer

Bounty duration doesn't be of importance every time, the task matters. If Kucoin/Binance/stex comes with a bounty for 15-16 weeks, every bounty participant will solve that gladly, for the reason that it's undisputable income. Airwallet rewards were unexpected, consistent as Mb8 coin, no one notions that conventional gift be able to hand over such giant currency to hunters! But I'm sorry? if a task runs for 50-52 weeks like the Mycrojobs, nothing carbon? 15-16 weeks duration is not that elongated age while it crosses than that, I wouldn't carry out that bounty!

The problem with the long-term campaign is because they make it long-term because they are so greedy that they want to raise more money so they can follow it in batches. But sometimes some bonuses have a long time period but there is an undue charge. People don't like long-term campaigns because they feel the effort is not paying off, a series of projects lasts several months and bounty hunters receive almost nothing.

I myself am more interested in bounty projects that are of short duration because I once promoted projects whose duration was long but ended in scams, so that the time spent was wasted. Because such projects often occur, bounty hunters prefer projects with small but short-term rewards, not projects that pay a lot but take a long time.

It is actually very simple. In case the promoters want us to work on these long-term promotions, then they should make an advance payment, or make regular payments every two weeks or so. Anyway, I don't understand the logic in promoting a project non-stop for 6 months or even 12 months. Which project needs this much promotion? And I don't think that such elongated promotions can be effective.

I also hate long-term bonus campaigns. Joining it takes up my time and takes a lot of effort. After that, you have to wait very long to receive the bonus. But to have money without losing capital we have to accept. Whenever I have the opportunity to make money, I do not miss any long-term or short-term campaign.

if the project from a long-term campaign is indeed good I think there is no problem to follow it,
because the results of our work are paid, but if you follow the long campaign the project is not good then your time will be wasted

Some long term duration bounty campaigns can be disappointing mate, it's same risks with short term bounty campaigns, what matters is the quality of that bounty project, if it's good enough you won't dare mind how many weeks it's going to take you, this is why we need to do deep research to avoid wasting time on nothing

to save you from deep research of these bounty projects. you can take the shortcut, how? look for reputable bounty managers here who are only accepting legit projects like yahoo, hhampuz. im just giving you their names, but there are still few of them that you can add as reputable BMs. if you will stick on their campaigns, you know for sure youll get paid. but hard to be accepted in their campaigns. so thats the struggle of a hunter here.

in this case the short duration or long duration will not be a problem because for me personally the most important thing is that it depends on the quality of the project itself. but for most project promoters they prefer short duration and not many like long duration for several reasons.

I can still go with a bounty that already stated that they are going to be running for long than a bounty that extends from short to long term without increasing their allocation. It shows that they just want more work for less pay.

It depends by the timming of crypto when to sell or hold the bounties . For example after 2017 most of the startups failed because bitcoin's price went from almost 20k to 4k. I think is better to hold after bitcoin halving and sell when the hype ends

I don't care about the time that bounty will run. I only care about the quality of the project and its budget. If they have a good project and a great budget, I will definitely participate in their campaign and come to the end. Today, most campaigns last from 10-16 weeks. It was too ordinary

I think no one cares about the bounty campaign's period or how long it is because each and every bounty hunter wants to work as long as they get the work to get great rewards. So don't hate long term promotion. Because it is the only source to the bounty hunters to earn rewards. So why would not we make a profit from such a golden opportunity.

For me it seems like long term promoters are more reliable and tend to help decent projects to live through hard times of starting the project.
On the other hand short term promoters are more about getting profits rather than helping develop companies

Categorising bounties comes in different forms. Some short term but pay long term. Some short term and pay short time. Some long term and still lock the token for long term. Like Coti. Some short term and never want to pay. I have seen a lot. The ones that will pay you will.

campaign with a short or long duration is not a problem for hunters the most important thing is the quality of the project, I once joined a project that had a very long duration but got little results and joined a short duration with satisfying results, the most important thing is that while joining the campaign keep doing work according to the rules and the final result will be determined after the project is listed on the market

Just as I expected, you missed the most important one. There are bounty projects which are long-term and never want to pay. I myself was a victim to many such scam bounties and all the time and effort that I put in to these projects were wasted. How does it feel, to work on some campaign for an entire year and in the end the promoters denying payment by making some silly excuses?

I've seen people complaining about 6-12 weeks bounty durations, how is that too long if the project you want to promote is promising? This point doesn't count because you can make profits from long term bounty durations and short term bounties too

If I have the time and discipline and I want to earn bigger rewards from bounty, then projects with long term promotions would be the be route to go. In my experience, the bounty projects that gave me substantial earnings are those projects that take months to finish. I have even joined a 4 months bounty project. But my patience was very well rewarded. But just be sure that what you are joining is a legitimate and not a scam project or your efforts will be put to waste.

How can they complain at the present? Most cashew campaigns last at least 10 weeks and sometimes I see campaigns lasting 6 months. We have gone through the best phase of bounty, so now we are facing a lot of difficulties. Low budget, lasts too long, scam bounty, distribution delay ...

neither the duration of short-term or long-term bounty is a problem, but the biggest problem is that it depends on the project itself. we can't know whether the project will be successful? most projects add a long duration and end badly, don't pay and sometimes end up a scam.

It's not a problem. If that was running by a good project and the hunters will have gotten their payment. The problem is we don't know for sure what will be happening. There was a lot of projects were running their marketing campaign in the short term and they got a good result and the hunters got paid.

I think the promotion up to a very long time is good because it can trigger an increase in the price of cryptocurrency that we save and can get a lot of profit when the price goes up, but at least you have to have a number of coins that are held for a long time because if a little then the profit is not felt.

Short or long term, as long as you did your researched properly then you can take advantage of its reward if the project proven worth to promote. There are some who are preferred a long term promotions cause they believe it will be legit project, but some earned also from short term bounty. I remember joining Tachyon and earned good profits with just short period of time. I likely joined until the end but due to this red trust cant participate on the following weeks. Point is, its not about duration but the potential of the project you are promoting.

Long term bounty campaigns are sometimes pain in the ass, promoting a bounty project for a long time is not the problem but not getting paid in the end is so depressing and not encouraging a bit, thinking about time you wasted can make you stop joining bounties, this is why its good to join other campaigns too, you won't be hooked to a particular bounty when other promising one comes out, content, telegram, Twitter campaigns are available too

A bounty is very accepted if it is not more than a duration of 8 weeks or the 2 months. So, I also hate the long running bounty which invited many hunter and finally the reward will not even a $1. Last year I have seen there are some bounties run more than 6 month and after the ending of the bounty still they have not paid their reward.

I only care about the price of the token and its liquidity after being listed in exchanges. As long as they are good projects, I believe that even if their campaign lasts 3-4 months, bounty hunters will still receive good rewards.

I don't hate long term bounties and even all the bounties that paid me with good reward are 6-12 weeks bounty durations, the use case and the quality of the bounty project is my own top priority, not for how long the promotion is goin to take me

I personally joined the bounty for 4 weeks. But it took me 5-6 months of waiting to get it, obviously the short term bounty is like the long term. We need to wait a long time to receive the token, so just join the bounty well, we will be okay with it

Yes I think that you are right because sometimes I think that it is great to have patience and wait for long term promotions here in cryptocurrencies because I think that it will be great if people would understand that it is best to have long term promotions too because they can earn more than the short term but you need to have patience because money will not come that quickly to you and you need to understand that you will be earning so much from cryptocurrencies if you have patience on your mind always and I think that it is great to know long term promotions and its difference with short term promotions

Yes, if a hunter spends his time with projects that have quality, I think it doesn't matter because his fatigue will pay off when the project is successful, but what many bounty hunters complain about is when they have spent a lot of time in project promotion, they actually can't get anything for the result.

Not knowing in advance how successful the project will be, and how honest the company managers will be with us, I don’t want to waste too much time. Therefore, you have to choose the most appropriate option - not too long a company.

The obstacle for us right now is to distinguish which projects are good, and projects that are run only to recruit profits at the beginning of the ICO. If indeed the project is run seriously, so even though the duration is long, we can still understand. Our time is not wasted.
The roadmap, the team, and some of the supporters listed on a website cannot be relied on. Because many projects have violated the roadmap, and most teams are fake. And unfortunately the project supporters can not be used as a guarantee for the success of the project.
So the short duration is better, because if the project scams, we don't waste long time on that project.
The results obtained are small to large. We cannot predict this.

Everyone have different perspective and have different choices. It is their own choice whether they want to join a bounty with short or long duration so if you join long term promotions be responsible for joining from it and remove the hate because once it is finished you can get your rewards for your hardwork just always be patient for your earnings. The success of bounties are depends whether the promotions are good till the end but there are scam where we must be aware of for joining so it must be good to stay away from it but we all know that joining bounties is very risky whether it is a scam that is why we must keep researching or checking the projects potential.

I have promoted some projects for several months and return I got nothing . Some worked for couple of weeks got decent return as you said its about the quality of project and also the team behind the project also how furious they are marketing and listing in exchanges that  matters s lot.

It is almost impossible to determine in advance whether a new ICO project will be successful, because it depends on many factors, including the correct actions of the team of this ICO project. Therefore, it is more profitable for bounty hunters to participate in short-term ICO bounty campaigns. During our participation in the long-term ICO campaign, we could participate in several. Moreover, the duration of the fundraising practically does not affect the result of the ICO itself.

I think it depends mostly on the quality of the project. I have joined short and long bounty campaign and got fairly equal rewards if you compute the time and effort you spend. But sometimes I feel that only a few join long term bounty and those who make it through the end greatly is rewarded.

yes bounty with a short or long duration is not a problem and it all depends on the quality of the project, as long as the team is working well, it is feasible for us to promote even though the duration is long. and most importantly they can be fair in paying bounty hunters

Many good projects do not take much time to raise enough capital to start their project hence they tend to have less lengthy campaign time. The fact that a project stakes several months does not correlate with better pay to those who promoted it as bounty hunters

Usually such projects are projects that already have a lot of partners from famous companies, so they only need a little time in terms of fund raising because many investors believe in them, and some even don't make campaigns anymore in terms of fund raising , because the funds desired by the project are also sufficient to run the project.

Long term promotions can really be painful if in the end every work go to waste, I'm sure many will go against long term promotions but you really can't tell, some long term promotions can worth it in the end and bring insane reward

You should see that recently many Bounty projects have long duration Bounty campaigns, and many are scam. it's very sad for us. I hope the Bounty campaign managed by the Bounty Detective can provide results are in accordance with long duration of their Bounty.

You are right, all have reason to hate the long-term campaign because after 2018 a lot of campaign that does not give satisfactory results. Of course this is increasingly making the bounty hunter to choose the campaign with a short duration to reduce the waste times so long.

Not just long duration but also the increasing number of bounty hunter that joins with the amount of reward that are not comparable will create results that are also not commensurate with the length of the campaign. Now a lot of people didn't think of that but it is also detrimental and also wasting time.

The thing with these long term promotion is most of the time some of them extend the promotion period until certain amount of time but didnt increase the reward pool, in short a free advertisement by exploit but well, who am I to judge, I guess it's the community that could stop this from happening.

Just ask yourselves. What sort of project needs a 6 month or 12 months promotion? Do they need that much time to attract the investment? Even if the pre-ICO and the ICO phase last for that long, will the investors be happy about it? In the past I have seen many of this long-term promotions and I can't recall a single instance where it ended happily for the bounty hunters.

For me much better to join a short term promotion than a long term. I experienced before that i joined to promote a project for 3 months but at the end it's all worthless because they didn't pay the people who promote their project. I know until now that they become successful for their project but they did not give any news and updates why they did not pay those who promote. Very disgusting to promote a project for a long term and then it become scam or whatever negative result may happen.

I think OP is right, does it matters how long a bounty campaign lasts? What matter is getting paid in the end, if you are too consigned about not getting paid then find yourself a reliable bounty manager, I'm sure we still have some

It is a big risk to spend a long time maybe in 3 months and more to campaign for a project while you can be involved in 2-3 campaign at the period. There are chances of projects' failure in this time in the market but choosing 3 projects can manage the risk. I try to get on such campaign late, towards the end of it to pick few coin but it will be more rewarding for high rank participants even at late entry than low rank.

If the long term bounty is from a well known bounty manager with good reputation it's worth joining because there is high chance that you will get paid, it all depends, choose wisely and you will be less disappointed

The Detective bounty is not as good as you think it is. Currently the prices of those bounty have collapsed and are not as good as before. I have seen EZY bounty, its price has dropped 20 times since the beginning and it will definitely continue to decrease in the future.

if the bounty promotion is for the long term,but they should pay weekly so that hunters will not think that it will be a waste of time when the project does not get in to exchange. at least they can see the reward what they have done every week

I totally agree with you, what matters most is the quality of the project you promote. Some team can take time to develop what they want and thus resulting to a longer bounty duration and at the same time, some team might have been working on their project for a long time, and might just need a little awareness thus short bounty duration. Also, there are still cases where a project will have a long bounty and ends up paying when the price might have gone down thus leading to very low reward for hunters, but in the case of short bounty, if such should happen it will be easier to get over with. There are even cases where a bounty might be extended and the team will still come up with reasons or excuses why they either will have to reduce the allocation or extend payment. So most times one might not really know what to expect but yet studying the project is always the first step of been on the safer side.

for long-term promotion, I don't mind if the project guarantees us to be paid, if there isn't, it's a waste of time  :)
I've experienced that for a long time, and I'm looking for a bounty that is really good and have a good potential

as long as it doesn't waste time, I think everyone will like it. the problem is, when we don't know whether we will actually be paid or not. it would be very good if they use escrow in this case, it's just that some projects extend their sales or promotions because their achievement targets are not achieved. some projects try to extend their promotion over a very long period of time to achieve this. it makes us spend time.

Should I say the words "lucky you" because of the fact that with thousands of bounty participants, you are one of the few who got a thousand dollars and was able to tell us here about it. Lucky you, and you gave us a tip that would be helpful then and in my opinion would only be helpful if you joined Bitcoin bounties and not on the alts. I have heard of bounty hunters not getting the value of their alts after spending 4-5 months of signature campaigns, so for me its kind of not really a guaranteed get paid high strategy if you joined a campaign that has a longer campaign period. It is really the project and how you see if that is a good project or not.

Bounty with a long duration and has good quality, despite the long duration, for me is not a problem. However, we must definitely pay attention to future project potential. For those who hate the Bounty project long duration because they are disappointed at the end of the project does not get a payment or fake project.

When many projects are fake, I personally prefer a project that has a short term. So if the project fails, I'm not too disappointed, and don't waste much time.

apart from the duration of the bounty, the number of participants also greatly influences the token we get, where the more participants participate, the fewer tokens we get.

Still, I don't like projects that hold very long bounty with small allocations and they don't limit participants. I can accept a bounty campaign for a long time if it's really good.

The allocation must be really feasible, if there is little allocation there are at least rules on participant restrictions. A good bounty has the risk of being followed by many people and it is good for projects but not for bounty hunters, so everything must be harmonized. From the allocation, time and number of participants. That is a good provision for projects, bounty managers and bounty hunters.  ;)

But thats impossible to happen if the marketing duration is long most likely there are many users will join on that campaign especially if its a good one. But usually projects does not have a long term duration like 6months oh boy thats a long time of promotions and yes everyone will be dissapointed knowing that what they promoted are only scam projects. I think its always wise to pick a shorter one regardless of risk cause at least you have chance to end it quickly and join other campaigns.

Personally I only prefer bounty 4-6 weeks, which is a sufficient time to promote the project. If bounty runs for 3 months or more then we should consider carefully because they are trying to raise capital from the community and most likely they will fail

Long term promotion is something that does not need to be hated, if they have a lot of rewards, then I will also be paid a lot,
of course you also have to try to choose a good bounty project.

As long as their project is good, and they have a budget that is appropriate for the duration of the campaign, I believe it is still worth it and you can participate in them. Do not waste your time on projects that are not clear and without investors, surely those projects will fail.

In my practice of participating in the company's bounty, one of the longest-running bounties was the Blocklancer platform. So, after more than a year of work, I earned 1 USD. I want to say that the longer the company goes, the worse. The fact is that there is always a time frame for each project, and if it could not be developed, then it is likely that this project will not be successful. There were other bounty companies, some made good money, others were few, and there were some that did not pay at all, but promised mountains of gold. You are right that it does not matter how long the company goes, the main thing is its quality, and so, usually if the project is of high quality, then it is not necessary for it to spend a bounty company for a whole year. Usually a quality project very quickly shows the result and honestly pays its members.

each prize hunter has a different perception or choice from one another, sometimes there are those who like the long duration and vice versa. for me personally depends on the project itself I mean like the allocation of fixed prizes. like the project that I have been running for 1 month now, on the other hand the allocation of prizes depends on the number of participants.

Hey i have enough about bounty in long long time promotion.
You know, i have doing some bounty in long duration until 1 year then and they said to wait until the time who one knows, i am waiting until 2 year and now no news and no update again.
They gone and scam.

It depends on the bounty. You cannot blame other people for hating long term bounty promotions because other people are also seeking for greater opportunities on getting along with other bounties after the first bounty they have got engaged is already done. Long term promotion is not that bad as long as you can still find it as worthy but if it is taking so much long for filthy or non-sense reason and that your rewards will be void once you leave the campaign while it is still on going, then that sounds rude and unfair for the part of the bounty hunter. Time doesn't really matter as long as you find the bounty campaign worthy of your time and effort to keep on working on it.

As long as the team created good cooperation with the hunters and this is not something that must be hated by anyone especially for the hunters. We have seen so many successful long term promotions that the team was also adding more tokens as an additional payment to the hunters too.

I agree with you partly. It would be good if payment for bounty hunters would be divided during long campaign. This will be a sort of motivation and a proof of project being honest to hunters. But to avoid from hunters dropping the price with first listing, bounty hunters tokens or coins should be locked for a month or two after first listing date. Hunters will be loyal to project, investors will be safe from price dump, project will get a promotion during all the time. Everyone would win from that.

This is a good reminder for those who really want big pays at the end of campaigns. Big pays are accumulated through time because you are promoting them for a long time but that still depends whether that Alternate Coin will have a successful platform. There are a lot of Bounties that offer a lot of coins BUT we do not even know what is the initial value of it and that is why we need to make a risky decision and follow our guts if we think that if we will gain profit from promoting it for a long time.

I used to join a lot of Amazix's bounty, but most of their projects failed when the ICO died. Most recently, their MOBU campaign, they used various methods to raise funds but eventually the project still failed and disappeared from this market.

If I'm to choose between a long term project and a short term, I'll go for the short term. This is because the present state of bounties barely gives substantial returns and long term projects are borne out of greed on the part of the project to raise more funds and its possible that even after the long duration, we won't still make anything out of the bounty.

What matters is the Company Owner if legit or scam,You are correct that it doesn't concern the duration after all,
because there are project that supposedly run for 10 weeks but after 6 weeks and there are
already investors?the Dev will run and the project end up scam in short term.

While there are also some projects that Runs too long but after the right time of payment?then same happens Dev
will gone and forget about the obligation for the hunters.

Projects having IEO at large exchanges and also having bounty campaigns are hard to come by and moreover due to the number of participants the reward is mostly low as compared to those bounty campaigns having listing at a normal exchange and having decent number of participants as the chances of growth are more of that coin rather than waiting or 3 to 4 months. Also sometimes the project also scams people and run away with their money, so after 3 months of marketing for them you will get nothing in return for that hard work that you have done.

now the choice is like that. in addition to joining projects that carry out IEO in large exchanges. I think joining a campaign that pays with coins listed on the exchange is a good choice. although sometimes only get a little from the campaign, everything looks certain.

I was once involved in the bounty of the project listed at the exchange. After the campaign ended, the project found enough reason to delay distribution and until now they have delayed for 9 months. In addition, prices have fallen more than 50 times and without any hope

try to see their exchange. when they have postponed the distribution of bounties and are still experiencing such a decline. of course, you have to think that there are problems in the project or exchange that cannot support the project.

Yes, it is more the problem that occurs so that traders and project token holders want to throw it away rather than own it, so that the price reduction will continue to occur to the lowest point in the market.

but unfortunately I see that the project that you are taking part in now does not provide a participant limit and if more participants join then all participants will only get a few $

some dump cases that occur are different. some are caused by bounty hunters too. even with a small allocation, it can happen because they do not have a strong enough market. demand is still small and it will make prices collapse very quickly. when having such coins, there is hope because they still have investor support and long development. it depends on how the will to grow the project.

Actually this guys post is a lie or has a misleading information.

Airwallet bounty started 23 November 2018 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5074548.0) and this guys account creation date is 02 June 2019. What is this, a back to future phenomenon?  :)

Airwallet's token is not listed on any exchange, except forkdelta. I've participated in this campaign in social media and sold tokens for about 0,1 ETH (i got 91k tokens out of 10kk). That means that the whole budget of the campaign was around 100 ETH roughly. By the time I traded my tokens, ETH cost about $200. Single guy took 1/20 out of all bounty budget? That is impossible.

Secondly, if he really had participated in this campaign, how can his registration date is younger than bounty campaign start and he was in it over all 14 weeks ? Answer - multy accounts. With multy accounts, it is possible to get over $1000 from a single campaign that last 14 week.

Thanks for clarifying this. I was suspicious, because most of the 2019 bounty campaigns had very low payouts. And when a campaign stretches for 14 weeks, I would naturally assume that there is something wrong with the campaign. I can't even check their spreadsheet, because they have removed public access. There is no method to verify what he is saying. $1,000 in 2019 for a single campaign sounds too much, IMO.

If a coin with a small demand case in the market, it will take a long time to grow, because it must be based on the demand and great interest of crypto lovers in general, and support from investors is also needed because of the price support of investors as well can be a basic benchmark.

You are lucky can earn over a thousand dollar in 2018, because 2018 is hard time for bounty hunters, so hard to find the great project which pay members. But if talk about long term, now is different long term is no longer profitable. Also long term is very risky. I dont hate long term bounties but for me, i prefer short term

Short time bounty promotions can also end in disaster, nothing is certainly in crypto world, I joined blockburn and iq cash this year and these bounties are short term bounties but they end up badly, blockburn don't even want to distribute to participants and if you ask about distribution you will be blocked, iqcash is also like blockburn, delays until tokens become useless

They did not have a huge bounty pull in the beginning, and second round with same length as first, but without increasing bounty pull killed that bounty.

Once someone wrote, that bounty is an ability to get projects tokens for free to try to use it aka free demo. They promised to distribute in August. Not a single hunter will receive enough coins to run a masternode. But, while promoting some had learned that ic.cash run nodes, and bounty reward can be a part minimum required to run a masternode (3000 is needed). Count iq.cash bounty reward as a discount if you want to run a masternode :)

I like short time bounty campaigns because you can easily get through them in time and join another bounty, time is money they say but it depends on how good the bounty project is, if it has long term duration and it's top notch I won't mind joining for weeks or months

I don't blame people that hate long term bounty campaigns, if they fail it's a whole lots of hardwork that will go to waste but it's simply laziness for some too, I believe in quality projects and I don't care if they have long term campaigns or not.

actually I prefer to join short-term bounties because if we don't produce anything then we don't lose too much time but I also like long-term projects as long as they are real and provide appropriate rewards at the end of the campaign

I hate this kind of project which at first open bounty for a short time then they increase the duration of bounty but surprisingly they don't increase the reward even if they increase the reward it doesn't worth much.But we waste our time by doing 12 weeks bounty.So I prefer 4-6 weeks bounty.

But now many project  run their project for 10-12 weeks and they give us 10-15$ which is not worth our time we invested in the bounty.Even some bounty don't pay us after 12 weeks bounty.Recently Kingcasino project scam us after 10 weeks of bounty.

So its very useful if bounty is short and reward is moderate even project scam us we don't have to waste 12 weeks

Long term promotions is ok given that bounty hunters are paid fairly. Some projects have promotional campaigns that lasts up to 6 mons to a year and ended as scam or haven't reached its minimum amount of investments. A good project is not based on long promotions but the quality and usage of the project.

A good quality project, whether short-term or long-term, is always acceptable to investors and other users. However, the development team involved in a long-term project tries to make the Project success and in this case, the project is more likely to succeed. In this case, the amount of fraud is less but in the case of short term projects, the amount of fraud is more as they are lost by building projects based on unrealistic ideas and accumulating resources in a short period of time. It takes time to create and develop a project based on a realistic and well-planned future plan. But in many cases, the project is long-term but there are examples of fraud.

True.As long as the campaign is good, the duration is not a problem, because what is a problem in each campaign is that it is not paid after the campaign ends, and is often delayed when the token price is high.

You even tried to earn upto 30$ from E3t but truth is not everyone will have such patience promoting project for 5_6 months when there are 1 month projects one can easily promote and imagine doing signature with high rank for long and missing good bounties. Me especially is not a fan of old bounties anyways.

I like the way you concluded. It is a two way situation and there is no certain formula for it. Duration doesn't matter. Kind of project, team, idea and even sufficient funding won't matter if a project will fail. Keep doing your best, the best bounties and just a single hit will change the story.

the key is how we choose the right bounty campaign mate
not the durations, because for me the durations doesn't matter

Yes, you're right it doesn't matter the durations. The most important there is how you choose a right bounty campaign you want to belong with.The only sad thing is when the project is over they will not pay bounty hunters, so devastating.

For me it depends, long term bounty duration is good if the project is very good and successful in the long run and that could benefit both the investors and bounty hunters when get listed in the crypto market. Some projects may take long duration but still not good in the long run and can't give good profit to investors and bounty hunters. So as for me, it would always depend on how progressive the project is. So it depends.

You are a lucky hunter because i had a lot of AIR tokens but i couldn't sell and i got this token from Bounty. Now in my wallet that this token has taken up space as unnecessary. I did some research on this token but found out about an exchange who delisted the AIR token. I checked their telegram and social media but realized this token is now dead.

As long as the bounty are very good it doesn't matter how long you promote it. The only problem is to pay you.

If the project  is good then time does not matter. Even a Short-term Bounty often earns a lot of money.  Again, even in long- term bounties, money is often not  available. So nothing depends  on time. Everything depends on the project.

You just nailed this dude, reasons why thousands in the community has had the course to cry fowls is the reason behind their inability to choose the project they intended to promote. Don't expect anything good from a good for nothing projects to make you good after promotion. Though, since my stay on the forum, I haven't engaged myself with bounties because I hated them big time from newbie to when I became a member. Advise: ensure to double check that crypto projects before set to engage.

The fact is that all bounties are different, they have different directions, different admins and different reward conditions. Personally, I cannot say that the amount of remuneration payment depends on the duration of the company. For me personally, something else is important, namely the fulfillment of the obligations assumed by the administrators of the bounty companies. Recently, very often there has been deception on the part of admins and very often participants in bounty companies either do not receive any reward at all or wait a very long time.

Don't compare the year you mean or this year, to be honest I don't like long-term projects, let alone 3-4 months. it's not worth the time and the rewards either. if it's a real project then it doesn't matter, but most real projects end up scam, after promoting for months at last don't get a dime.

Any  campaign beyond 10 weeks, have decided not to participate in them again. The only long time reward project was WPP, the reward was handsome in the bear market and even bought into the project later on. ELAD and Rootproject were longterm bounty beyond 6 months and I wasted my time with them. Sadly they didnt get the expected fund, since those campaign have decided to stay with  short term campaign. DAI is the most rewarding bounty campaign this year and it was only for 4 weeks.

From my point of view, duration does not matter. Total allocation for bounty and number of participants matter. I have seen projects with 1% of total supply allocated for bounty for projects but with different durations.

Yes what really matters is the quality of the project,are the coins worthy or not .It totally doesn't matter whether it is a long duration bounty or a short duration one but mostly many do not like long bounties because it is much stressful but most atimes more beneficial.I strongly encourage people to take part in long duration bounties.

Anyone who joined bounties in the forum is going to agree, that duration does not totally affect the project but still a good factor in its success. Some bounties just have a short duration but the reward was great but there are some bounties that have a long duration but low reward. The bounties depend on how the project will do and how many investors are interested in the project. Some bounties would not be give a big percentage in promotion so it would not be a good reward if thought it has a lot of investors.

I agree that the quality of the project should be the first thing that you have to look but the stakes pool should also have your concern some bounty campaign only allocate 1% or a thousand dollars worth of their token with unlimited participants, if many are joining the campaign you are not going to make much.

Lol i'm not here because i wanted to participate in Bounty and to earn instead i'm here because i  invested my money inside hoping that someday in the future i will earn good income from all my capitals.
lucky you are because still being paid,most bounties gives you only promises but no payment at all.

For me the most important thing is the quality of the project, the length of the project but not of good quality, then we will not get a profit and even not receive at all. it's better to follow a quality bounty even though the time is short, but we can get a lot of benefits, especially if the project is quality and works in the long run, we will be rich by that project.

I think It always depends on the success of the project. For me it doesn't matter how long the duration is, the most important thing is that we are compensated for our efforts regardless of the outcome of the project.

yup and it's really hard to find good quality projects too, I have promoted many projects last 2018 and only 4 projects paid me with value.

between long duration and short duration sometimes uncertain, I mean there is no guarantee regarding this problem. but to be honest for me the problem with long duration bounties will be very annoying especially if the promotion is more than 3-4 months and in the end it ends badly. the project does not pay its participants and usually like that
