Many Bounty Hunters Are Increasing Daily On A Regular Basis Thereby Causing Many Hunters Feels Reluctant Of Paticipating In Nowaday Bounties Because Of Low And Unappreciated Rewards. Campaigns Managed By Bounty Detective Seems To Be Stressful Because Of Its Long Duration Of 12 Weeks And At The End Hunters Still Getting Poor Rewards Of $5, Lol. 😂


I Have Observed So Many Times That Article And Video Campaigns Have Less Participants While Hunters Feels It's Much Stressful And Brainstorming. Bounty Hunting Is All About Sacrificing Time, Energy, Data And Electricity. Now For You To Be A Good Hunter With High Rewards, You Have To Participate In Article And Video Campaigns Only, For Lower Ranks On Forum And Sometimes Signature Campaigns For Higher Ranks, Meanwhile Participating In Social Media Campaigns Gives Less Reward Because Of Many Participants. Try This And You Gonna Appreciate Me.

Youtube campaigns have certain criteria to participate like minimum of 1000 subscribers which is too hard for every hunter to reach that is why they are not giving any efforts to such campaigns even if it highly rewarded campaign but with no pain no gain so need to give maximum to get more rewards.

Yes there are very high number of participants in Social media campaign and the reward share is smaller. It would still be worth for many as they can parallelly participate in hundreds of social bounties. Article and Video campaign requires a lot of effort on making while one user can only participate in one signature bounty at a time. That's why those campaign has a lower number of participants hence a larger reward.

You're right the best solution here is limiting the bounty participants this could make bounty hunter earn more,
It is really frustrating when you work hard and put so much effort in the campaign for 12 week but at the end you just earn small amount.

Social media campaign is the easy ways to join in a bounty you don't need to do many things only share like and report, that's why more of the hunters prepared  to join that camp instead of others.
For article writter not all of the members here are good in English so not all of them are able to do that task same thing with vlog campaign. Unless the campaign will accept local language to make a review article for a projeCt then there will be more hunters can make and participate on that job.

I think the problem about the Bounty project besides Ico fraud now is like the award and the number of participants. as you said above about projects managed by the Bounty Detective, the average duration of the project runs 3-4 months. The duration of this project makes many bounty hunters from time to time participate in it. especially about signature campaigns or social media.

yes, a good opportunity to get high rewards is to join an article or youtube campaign. because not all participants have expertise in that section. the lack of participants will get you high prizes but if the project is successful.

Everyone can start upgrading and learn how to write articles. Get some idea how it's done by writers who's been into that job for a long time. Take time to research, watch videos how you make a good one as your starter. Participants don't want to write 500-1000 words of article because it requires you to be good in quite things. A campaign that requires a quality video is also a good campaign to improve your video making/editing skills so, as you make one you practice while getting an incentive.

but from what I observed article and video campaigns also have very small rewards because of a small allocation, many bounties are more concerned with allocations in social media campaigns because the participants who join can reach thousands. the most profitable for bounty campaigns is only translation

I think the category that get high reward more is the translation campaign, not many participants are in translation because not all languages are needed, take olportal for example, if you look at the spreadsheet, you will see that translation participants are the highest paid, even article didn't get much in this bounty, YouTube videos also got good reward, in essence, social media campaign is the worst to get good reward.

Yotube campaigns will require more than other campaigns. Like, they will require your channel to have at least 2000 subscribers, and your video must have at least 2000 views. It is difficult to achieve these requirements, but if you meet these requirements, you will surely earn a huge amount of money, it will be many times more than the signature campaign

I used to do article or content campaign and to be honest i used to properly read all details from website and whitepaper and then wrote the article about the project in my own words and i did got reward from some campaigns but then the rules got stricter and also it became solely bounty managers choice, so some of my hard written articles were rejected by managers so i was left with no reward, the reasons were not clear because plagiarism was not an issue they just fidnt liekd the articles soemhow so i was badly discouraged and stopped writing now because even after so much reading and then writing you donot have guarantee of reward which makes it a waste effort.

Is there any reason why every first letter in every word of your post is capitalized?

Maybe you wouldn't waste so much time with your bounty tasks if you spoke properly.

The fact is more participants usually means fewer rewards per participant unless the bounty manager is doing his job properly and ensuring that only high quality work is rewarded.

The vast majority of bounty hunters are spamlords who deserve zero rewards. The ones who actually generate value should share all the rewards, even if this does represents just a small fraction of all participants.

Sometimes the allocation for the translation bounty is really small too compared with the effort that we must try to use it. People must participate in the various campaign at the same time to make sure they can earn huge money from the campaign. There are people who participated in all kind of campaign like social media, youtube, bug and many more at the same time.

Do the bounty participants still increase that much in this year? I think that the participants were so increasing only in 207 and 2018, while after 2019 until now, they are decreasing because of the rewards that they got are very less.

I think it is not only this BM. Getting $5 is sometimes a big amount than getting nothing after working for 3 months, waiting for almost a year, and there are nothing changes, suddenly the project is dead. This is often happening and still stand until now.

Commonly, social media involves most participants so that many people only get a few amounts of rewards. On the other hand, some BM also has its own criteria on the article or Youtube, those who have better quality will get more payment.

For the signature campaign itself, if you have a high rank, you may not be worried so deeply because you can get higher stakes. If there are many new members coming, they are lower ranks than you and you can still have more chances to earn more.

However, from whatever the bounties, campaign with BTC payment is the most legit one. So, better to follow this kind of campaign although it needs big efforts to compete with other members.

There is no guarantee that you will earn a big chunk by participating in article and youtube bounties. It all depends on the uniqueness of that content and how effectively you have discussed all the parameters. There have been many instances when your article or your youtube video did not qualify for an award.

The safest and the best way to earn reward is by participating in signature bounty. The stakes offered her are always high as compared to other bounties. I have always participated in signature campaign and made good sum of money too.

The only issue with signature bounty is if the project fails or if the token crashes as soon as it hits the exchange.

well, I agree more when you say to participate in all existing campaigns because when only following one campaign in my opinion the results that will be obtained will not be maximal, the results you get depend on how you try to get money from the bounty campaign.

Yes this is possible in most cases. Reason why you should not just discard a project because of huge participants because some may not see to the end of the bounty. And if you seriously work for it, it will pay you off.

You're right! Joining bonus campaigns on YouTube is not easy! They are not always more successful, they are very time consuming. I think if we try to participate in high quality and effective signature campaigns you can also bring yourself a lot of money. Currently I am spending a lot of time writing posts on topics.

Bounty managed by Bounty Detective has a very long duration, so many participants are more bored because they are waiting for distribution, and indeed I observe that the program managed by them is quite good and it seems promising when the bounty is over.
With an average duration of 12 weeks it is very long and by waiting for the update to be distributed too long it may take 1-2 months to receive tokens into our hands.

Article and video campaigns are not easy for us to participate, but the articles we make are not unique, and they are looking for high quality if they are successfully approved, perhaps the rewards are quite large.

AS you have said, once the project fails or the token crashes before even receiving your share, your participation in sig bounty is doomed. Nowadays, very few sig campaigns under alt sections are successful. The only thing you are sure of is when you joined a btc paying campaign under reputable or known BM here. Most alt or token paying campaigns, even if you get high rewards or stakes, still depend on their actual performance in the exchanges. And usually the team distributes the hunters's share after months from when the token starts trading, so once they finally received their share, the price is already down like about 5-10% of the original price, which is very disappointing to its hunters.

More reward and more stakes and then the allocation will be divided into so many stakes that owned by the participant. Each person will get less reward as the allocation must have divided even more.
This is not something new to happen. The main point is if everyone must not put their attention into the one kind of bounty.

I am not sure if there are so many bounty hunters participate in one project can get so many rewards because I think the allocating will be spread to all participants. The allocation for participants will depend on how much bigger the rewards that will be given the project itself. At this moment, I don't think the project will give huge rewards to the participants because they feel that the market still not back to normal so they can reduce the amount of the percentage for the participants.

Huge rewards means having a good skills too.
 If you may noticed, those video making, translators, article content creations are offered high rewards because not all have that skills and talent. Thus most of the bounty hunters especially those members here that can not join signature campaigns are doing some social media share tasks. That's what they can do for now and you can't blame them since participants wanted to earn.

There are larger participate in social media campaign so it's party to quote advice keep doing limiting options and increase 15%-20% allocation for social media. Actually bountydetective service long duration They need to be stronger in the case some rules. Here I think social media and signature are the best qualities for promote a project.

I don't have alot to say about video campaigns, I don't even know how to create one so you might be right about that but article? It depends on the Article allocation, like Olportal bounty, many did joined and many are blocked because they failed to follow rules but guess what only 30$ to 50$ per the quality of your content, how does this feel???

Any hard job will have a higher reward. People who do social media make it easy to post and report. Besides, there are also fake follow nick so it is worth them to receive the small reward. For Signature campaigns and Content or Youtube campaigns, it's a different level of difficulty. We have to create good and good content so that readers can realize that we are the quality marketers of the project. From there people will come to their project, that's why there is a difference in the reward.

The thing here is that, you need to have a certain skills in order to participate in other campaigns. Signature campaign and social media campaign is probably the easiest to do and newbies and bounty hunters tend to do it more than other campaigns.

But the campaigns are not the problem here but the project itself. Even if people where to start pouring more effort into a project if the project team itself is a fraud, then there's no point to it. Even successful ICO tends to have their coins valueless at the end of the day and we all know that ICO tends to be a scam which will really deny all your efforts if it happens. At least the majority of the projects turns into a failure.


That's also a factor because project teams tend to avoid making 1 person hoard their tokens because that would be bad for their project.

It's a very good point made.  One of the challenges is that, even real and paying bounties are very minute nowadays not talk of high paying one.  I am also working on trying out articles and YouTube campaigns, but I need to target very sure and confirm bounty that will pay at the end of the day.  Besides those two, signature of full member rank and above and translation are also good for serious bounties.

Honestly I think Twitter campaigns and signature campaigns always have the highest promoters, this makes me think that these two campaigns should have the highest allocations, it's always about allocations, the higher the % of the allocation the better

Writing articles is really not easy.  It is necessary to study the project and clearly describe its advantages and usefulness for investors.  But I can say that for one project I received more than two hundred dollars.  Wrote two articles.  After another, a little over fifty, also for two articles.  It all depends on the project and its relevance for the participants.

It amazes me to see the number of people in bounty detective telegram. Close to a 100k, if that number storm any bounty be sure of 4$ 😁. The article and YouTube are also not easy to join. First, you fight for subscribers and spend so long writing article. This campaigns are not always guaranteed. I see so many people fail them.

I think that now it is the best time for bounty campaigns, when you back in the days -2017, there were few thousand participants in the twitter campaign, now there are only few hundreds. So even the total bounty pool is lower, you can still earn nice rewards.  ;)

In my case in the previous times, I also avoid article and video campaigns due to I find it more difficult than posting since I have create video that require more time and effort than posting and I also do not have plenty of time. But yes, it is more effective in earning. Another is the translation since there will only one who will translate per nationality.

the total allocation also affects, if the total allocation is small and there are lots of bounty participants, of course you will be paid a little, one way to get more is to join bounty social media campaigns, blog campaigns, and video campaigns, I think you will get more later

True. No doubt those are best ways to earn high reward but mate, making videos about project or writing blog about project are not a easy task like social.without copy paste those are too hard and so still there are a few perticipators available for those campaign

Being content creator is not so that easy, for article and video campaign have high-level for minimum requirements. Article campagin that require at least 1k views or 50 claps and video campaign must have at least 500 subcribers and have at least 100 views as well.

Yep i felt that too huge participant less reward  ;D. I think limiting participants is a good choice. Especially on signature campaign. Also creating content on youtube or writing an article is not easy. Need spend more effort on that both campaigns.

Exactly like that, Twitter and signature are always great promotions for new projects. So I think bounties need to allocate very high budgets for these two tasks because they will help the project to get more investors and their project supporters.

Huge rewards in bounties nowadays ? I highly doubt it. I personally looked upon some altcoins bounties and for the signature part things are not looking so good but once again if we go and search for fresh projects we will see that there aren't many right now as both founders and investors are scary to start a business when you can't even achieve hard cap.
The good bounties are maybe for translations , youtube ( where you need a lot of subscribers ) or if you're a good blog/article writer but signature is not doing so good.

Yes, it is very difficult to make a lot of money from campaigns. Because most campaigns have reduced their budgets but there are many people involved. And just like what you said, only the youtube or blog campaign will bring in a lot of money because the two campaigns require a lot of things and very few people can meet their requirements.

There are many reasons why rewards are low. One of them is they became popular in poor countries as a way of making money.

In countries like Eritrea, Liberia, Ghana, Zimbabwe, Pakistan that $5 OP is calling a low reward is a normal reward. That amount will feed you for a few days since people there earn less for a whole day of hard physical work.

If you live in a country where people are paid around $5 for an hour or work bounty hunting is not for you. It's very simple.

yes indeed the number of participants is now not as much as in 2017, in 2017 even though the participants reached more than 5k but could generate more than $ 100. different from the present social media campaign participants who earn no more than $ 20 (work for 12 weeks)

You Just Made Me A Clear Understanding On Some Certain Countries That Embrace Such Low Rewards. That's Amazing.  Thanks For Your Kind Clarification.

But the problem is there are also scam projects existing nowadays. Its the reason why the number of bounty hunters are decreasing, hard to find a good bounty plus the low rewards.

Well even you join in article or video campaigns it doesnt guarantee that you can earn decent amount. It all depends how good the project is even there's a low participants for that particular campaign.

i think the only campaign with guaranteed payment nowadays are btc paying campaigns managed by known BMs here. if you will get involved in coin or token paying campaigns, either sig or YT campaign, the chance of not getting paid is high. very few can actually implement their platform and raise their target funds, so you really have to choose them meticulously, not just joining one after another as more then likely you are only wasting your effort

You can make huge rewards even with that instance if you participated in the bounty since from the very beginning in all the bounty allocation. But the question is it has a market value? Because we are not talking about the number of tokens but we are looking into its market value which in most cases, they still don't have any $.

I was picturing out that many Bounties promise huge rewards and bounty allocation just to attract participants and to promote their project but that was so unfortunate because they are still not listed on the market or even it was but there is no value and no buyers. How could we sell it?

Signature requires a high rank and to be ranked up needs a lot of effort right now. Twitter has thousands of participants and that means the chance to get a lot of rewards became very low. You should consider how much participants have already participated too.

This is a joke, Bounties from bounty detective will only earn you freebies(low dollars), except perhaps ioi that is participants limited.
You need to understand a constant in bounty hunting.

The higher the number of bounty participants, the lower the reward becomes.
Take the hybrix bounty as a case study.

Each bounty campaign has a different level of difficulty. Everyone has different tendencies, abilities, and pleasures.

Joining social media campaigns, the task is easy, that's why there are so many participants, often reaching hundreds.
Join signature campaigns, the task is quite difficult because they have to make quality, informative, and constructive posts. Especially if the signature campaign with BTC rewards, as handled by Hhampuz, there is a minimum requirement of merit.
Join content or article/video campaign, requires ability and creativity, not all have this so that the participants are not as much as social media campaigns. If we are able to create quality content with the support of a large website or subscriber and a lot of impressions, it increases your chances of getting big rewards.

Basically, we must be creative and make the best use of opportunities. Continue to learn to improve the ability to get big opportunities.

to get a big prize, you have to work harder in the sense that you join a project that has few participants and difficult rules. and in the campaign section especially like YouTube and blogs. I see prize hunters rarely taking part in the two slots above, most of them joining social media slots like Facebook and Twitter.

Even if they partake in it, a lot of them tend to fail and their contents are not accepted.
Some of the reasons beg=hind this sometimes could be, lack or proper understanding of the project; not carefully reading instructions; inability to write in a reasonable and concise manner and not having the required platform to publish on.

when you want to get a lot of results from a bounty campaign then you should be able to work harder meaning from one bounty campaign as much as possible to participate in all the allocations given so that you can get a lot of results from your hard work.

Honestly I think  and signature campaigns always have the highest . I see, it's very difficult to get a stake on a blog or youtube campaign. the articles we make are not unique, and they are looking for high quality if they are successfully approved, perhaps the rewards are quite large. article and video campaign have high-level for minimum requirements. Article campaigns that require at least 1k views or 50 claps and video campaigns must have at least 1000 subcribers and have at least 100 views as well.

Sometimes, people's taste in content is also different. All assessments do depend on the decisions of the dev team or the bounty manager team, if managed properly, the reward given will be proportional to the quality of the content. Again, this is very relative and depends on individual tastes. But if we are able to meet the requirements, can create unique content, then we will get a good chance.

In my opinion, a join signature campaign is also better. But this also really depends on the allocation and number of participants. When compared to the task and the level of difficulty, this is easier to manage.

 This  reward you get for any bounty depends  on the allocation and the number of participants. there are some campaigns like social media campaigns where you have so many participants working to get a few percentage of the bounty reward. So you wont expect the reward for this to be as much as article or video with a fewer participants and bigger allocation.

You are definitely true. Participating on social media campaign such as Facebook and Twitter campaign is just a perfect wasting time. I participated on a lot of Article and Content Creation and I have been doing it more than a year until now. The payment are quite worth it and its way more bigger if compared to social media campaign.

The bounty hunting scene is definitely picking up steam, even couple of months ago it was almost impossible to sniff out a decent campaign, but now the situation is much brighter, not as bright as it was in 2017, but still, enthusiasm is coming back to the market in with that more and more HQ projects doing bounty campaigns. The recent DIA campaign is a great example for it, a strong project that rewarded its participants plentifully.

That's true! The reward depends on the allocation of the campaigns. Furthermore, it's true that doing article and video campaigns can bring you more tokens than doing social campaigns. The reason is that not a lot of people dedicate their work to do article or video campaigns because it takes a lot of time. That's just a common thing, easy job, lower payment and we all know that!

If the project is very promising articles Campaigns can be filled with many participants too, the best solution to this is bounty managers that use limited participants or fixed tokens rewards like bounty detective or bubbalex

Hard to qualify an article to have good number stakes in the bounty campaign. When the bounty managers know that most of the articles really are often spin for it to be unique.

But I think its worth keeping the token if the project is really legit and have potential to grow so even if you only have few tokens recieved from th campaign, it will be worth keeping.

As a result, we can get a lot of low-quality articles and video content that no one is watching.

High ranked member gets bigger rewards because they bigger stakes from the bounty campaign, even there are many participants in the bounty campaign.

They will receive a higher reward than others, but compared to other campaigns they will receive a lot less. So I am not interested in campaigns with too many participants. Working for months and getting just a few pennies, it's really not worth it

Take a look on DIA bounty campaign  (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5260771.0)managed by bubbalex. The amount allocated is 100,000 DIA (0.05% of the total supply) (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5260771.0), tokens price during sale was 0.05$.
On one hand this is not a biggest amount allocated in bounties. But on the other, todays token price is already $2.74. Bounty is not yes distributed, but if the price keeps the same (or even grows), it will be counted as one of the profitable bounties for hunters this year.

it caused by that is only created without any effort but in another way, there was a lot of contents that was really worth to be appreciated.

The managers are also actively choosing which is campaign that is really worth to be rewarded

Watch the quality of the project first and also the bounty allocation, sometimes you will get low tokens but the tokens value will worth the whole effort, we have too many bounty participants now and not all bounty managers will use limited participants strategy on their campaigns, choose quality bounty projects from reputable bounty managers and you will have less bad news

translation campaigns are the ones that have given me the most in the past because only up to 10 people participate, then article and video campaigns because less people participate than social media campaigns. Still, social media are somewhat worth it if you have a big following.

It is more about people working towards something like a better pay for your works worth and that is not out there right now in the bounty market. Just because you "could" make a lot of money in the bounty market doesn't mean that you will be paid accordingly, you could make 1000 dollars a month if you really want to but that doesn't mean your job worths 1000, it would probably worth 10k instead and you would be getting 10% of your work.

The main reason is that projects could find a ton of people who would work for very cheap and the other reason is that people are getting into projects that end up failing so they are working for very little amounts at the end when the project fails. When you remove those two things from the situation you end up with good amount of money for the work you put into it.

In 90% of the campaigns I have participated in, Article and Video campaigns have had lesser participants so far compared to others.  Signature mostly favoured the high rank forum members... From Senior member upward, lol.. Social media campaign is even a no go area if you dont want to be among the crowd.  I have been trying working on promoting projects on YouTube recently, and I'm glad I'm improving.

Yes, it is pretty possible by doing the hard task like translation, creating a review video, etc. but not all people have those talents to create those kind of stuff. They usually join the easy one like social media but I suggest trying the hard one or maybe learn some skills like creating stickers, gif. you could pretty much learn all that in youtube and google with the right device of course, having a high specs desktop is an advantage to create high resolutions videos.

Well if you would join all of the given campaign for sure you would get a huge reward but the question is it is worth all of it?
The stress on doing it all and not knowing if you would really be paid off and if the bounty would really pay it's participants.
It isn't that easy as you've said because hunters also need some day to relax and relieve their stress from work and joining all given bounty would just stress them out and give them less time to relax and it is more frustrating because after all the hard work they would keep on thinking if they would really be paid.

Part of managers job is to make sure that they are producing good and effective advertisements.

Bounty will continue to be profitable if the project gain the success that it's needed to continue the projects developments
and provide the rewards that been promise to all participants.

actually the most profitable is joining translation campaign because there are only a few participants. I haven't joined the translation campaign for a long time because I don't have enough time, other than that I feel disgusted because until now I haven't gotten good results while joining translation campaign.

I think not for most of the bounty projects are scam and they are not.even being.controlled to minimize the.activity.  It is really a problem now that many created a project but only few are prospected investors. Way back 2017 backwards bounty campaign was good. More project were not related to scam.and many bounty hunters.had been earning huge from.the rewards. And if you compare it.now, it has huge difference that pass bounty hunting is way good better than the current.

yes, the video campaign has very few participants because indeed everyone can do it, some of the requirements given by the bounty manager cannot be reached by the participants.
For accounts under FM, in my opinion, you should try to increase your rank so that when you join the signature campaign you will get more rewards from your previous work

and tbh, are there really decent bounty campaigns these days? from what i see now, only those btc -paying campaigns, whether low or high payrate are the only ones to be trusted here, if it is handled by known and reputable BM. i dont expect anything more on these token paying campaigns, the reason why i stopped joining them a long time ago. even if the rate is attractive saying in huge $s in equivalent but the truth is - when they hit in the exchange, your share will be only few pennies.

And that's the problem of the bounty campaign was to long to end but the rewards we receive are only few dollar. Most hunters participate on that kind of bounty are those newbie rank and doing only social media campaign even do the bounty rewards its only a small amount they sacrifice them self to that bounty campaign.

Yes, the logic is simple, it is simply an axiom of "garbage in, garbage out" which literally means you must go through the instructions for a particular bounty and access the various campaigns alongside the stakes therein.

Go for the ones with higher stakes and exert in much strength, vigor to make your job unique and spectacular and you stand a chance of earning bigger for a job well done.

what ever effort you exert, is proportional to the result you get, so work hard as a bounty hunter and get a big catch for yourself.

it all depends on the allocation given by the team and also the price when it starts trading on the exchange. If there are lots of requests, of course the price will be high but indeed social media campaigns have many participants so they have to get a little reward but recently I have seen some managers have been fair by limiting participants who join

If there are many participants then expect a low rewards.
But if you want to get a high payment choose a campaign with few participants like what op said, article and video campaign are different and needs an effort thats why there are only few who join in this specific campaign to advertise the project. But what important is the project itself, high rewards are nothing if you end up in scam project.

if you will only know that your going to recieve 1 usd in the next 4 months of working why insist to join ? but no we cant predict what will happen.  they dont put on the details that your only going to earn a dollar but instead they put millions  and you as a hunter will get a share with it depending on your work .

you cant be choosy if your rank is only a newbie because campaigns hardly accept it . campain owners know that it can only lead to abuse so they only lower the rewards to not attract abusers.

There are only a few members here who join the article and youtube campaign that is why only a few are sharing the total bounty pool for the said campaign. It is rewarding but it requires skills and you need to be articulate to be able to create an article and a youtube content, and not all participants have this, some are not even fluent in English.  Honestly, I haven't joined any of it, but I must say that it is worth it if you were able to create your article or youtube video for a good potential project.

The Telegram bounties are by the far the most easiest in most cases, therefore there are hundred's of participants in almost every telegram bounty.
Which also means that you only get like 5$ worth of tokens for it.
Twitter and Facebook can bring you a little more but are also quite crowded because it's also pretty simple.
Signature Campaigns require more effort but also have less participants which should mean higher rewards.
Youtube and Article campaigns mean by far the most effort and also require you to be talented in what you are doing, at least that's how it should be because bad videos and articles are worth nothing.

The bad news is if there are few people that joined the said campaign the bounty manager or the project behind it will reduce the pool on it. The best way is to try different campaign, you can either join translation or if the bounty has signature campaign that could also increase your rewards, just a reminder try to join bounties from good projects and DYOR.

For me If Im gonna joined a campaign, I will consider the duration and the budget of the category we are joining. For example they have allocated bigger on blogs and youtube then its good to join there. I will never joined again on social media task especially on facebook and twitter. These fields have a high number of participants. I cant imagine how much dollar I would take hom when paymeny time. So Id rather choose signature that is more likely easy to do and not hassle.

I thn many would actually want to join, its just that its too difficult to do when you don't have the video editing skills. I would rather be joining the signature campaign which I would have to spend more time than just uploading a video and go on to another campaign. Still its not usual to have more funds allocated to youtube/video campaign though. But because they are only few of them, they get more tokens.

When I was active in the ICO campaign I don't mind the long campaign as long as it will yield a good rewards and the potential of the coin is good, unfortunately so many campaign are very long and the project ends up as shit coin, total waste of time and effort there are a lot of that in bounty campaign.

Unlimited bounty participants is bad for bounties business, the project you promoting must have better value for you to get good rewards, too many participants will get you nothing but pennies for weeks of work or even months

No you are wrong, joining all available Campaigns won't change anything, many new bounty projects have low max allocations like 30k max and if such bounty project has many participants it won't make a difference

You can still get a huge reward from a bounty project will many participants? That's very hard to believe, you need to do some math on past bounty projects that became successful and see for yourself, limited participants is best strategy for today's bounties

You should also see the price of coins too. Have you seen OIKOS and DIA? both were offering very nice reward to the participants too. I think that you must do a proper calculation to determine how much you will receive.

The thing is even if you find a good project with realtively little participant numbers and do the job, often they will scam and drefaud you in the end by reducing the bounty. This is what ParamauntDax did, they are scammers. It is okay if they state these rules in the beginning but most of them do not do that.

yes, I agree on article bounties that give better rewards. it also with the duration or our work period is little, maybe only making 2-3 articles along the bounty. but for beginners it will be difficult to make a good article without copy and paste. need special expertise for this article bounty because it is not about conversation or discussion. but we are required to make an interesting article about bounties so that readers have an interest.

That's right, like ispolink campaign. They have reduced the signature campaign's budget because there are few people participating in their campaign. In the end each participant only gets a few tokens from the original, it is clear bounty campaigns are breaking the rules and making things worse.

Whitepaper translation is better than articles because many participants are joining article Campaigns too, once the project has a quality use case you will see hundreds of participants writing article for the project

I just checked the price of Oikos, it has gone up to 0.12 $ and still keep going up. Hopefully until bounty ends, the price will go up 0.3-0.5 $. Surely everyone will get a lot of money from this bounty

Well, there are so many participants in the crypto currency world today who wants to join bounties. But to get a huge reward in bounties; you have to do a single thing work smart. Most hunters work 2 weeks from a 12 weeks bounty and expect to earn 100$, believe me it doesn't work that way.

I want to correct your mindset regarding social media campaigns; believe me twitter and LinkedIn sections of bounties are always rewarding; especially if you have a top tier accounts. Always do your own research irregardless.

not all projects are doing this. I participated in the first part of the OIKOS bounty campaign and they paid everything honestly and on time, and therefore I take part in the second part of the bounty campaign

Definitely. The thing is you need to join crypto projects and bounties that are aligned to your expertise so you can use it as an advantage.However, you should be careful in choosing where to join since there are a lot of issues when it comes to the day of payment.

You will never see a campaign like that in the future. They work very professionally and everything is resolved very quickly. They also pay the bounty within 2 weeks after it ends, which is a great project.

They have done it, if they feel the allocation is very small they impose a limit, but if the allocation is large they will not give a limit except for some campaigns like signature maybe they will give limit for this, and also if the bounty they handle has a short duration (4 Week) they do not impose a limit.

Yes, i know some people who have joined in social media campaign for a long time but but they only get a low bounty reward. However in translation of whitepapers,  it depends on the campaign,
if they have high amount of funds and if the project become successful,  the bounty rewards may also be high.

The price of the DIA has gone up more than 50 times, and that's really a crazy growth in this market. If someone participates in that campaign, they are very happy with it right now. Btw I hope OKS can go up $ 0.2-0.3 by the end of September this year

So far, I'm happy with the companies that Bounty Detective is running. They write that they guarantee payments to participants in ICO bounty campaigns, since escrow applies. In these cases, there is a certain guarantee that the projects will not turn out to be fraudulent. Also, I like that they explicitly state that no KYC will apply. Unscrupulous ICO teams very often used KYC after a certain time after the end of the ICO in order not to pay the bounty hunters the tokens we earned.
The number of participants in ICO bounty campaigns and the amount of payments will always be different, as there will be different ICO projects. Here we ourselves need to be vigilant and make independent decisions.

A lot of bounty hunters aren't that lucky, most of them only get a few dollars for participating in a bounty campaign that runs for months and this is actually not a good way to market a project, if the participants aren't getting paid enough then I am sure they won't do a good job in promoting the project. That's the reason why I join bounties where only a small group of people have already joined as more stakes will be rewarded per user which mean more chunk from the reward pool per user.

Not all bounty hunters will be lucky, we have many bounty projects available and many bounty hunters will choose and promote any one even with deep research there is no guarantee that the project will be successful, bounties are 50% luck and 50% on quality of the project

Now is a tough time for bounty hunters to get the big pay, especially when we rarely find a good project. The main factor in the decline in interest of bounty hunters is that they receive very little payment or the coins they get have no selling value in the market.
We as bounty hunters must be more creative in following projects, so that we can get good rewards when the project ends.

You will get nothing when the whole bounty becomes a crap even legit projects are turning into scams at the very last minute so there is no assurance for getting reward while you are promoting a project.But on paper you will get more rewards but also you need to put more effort on video or translation campaign compared to social media campaign.

The assurance of getting paid in bounty this time is really uncertain as loads of projects just come and go and they don't even act like they owe people anything including investors, how much more bounty hunters. But if they for any reason get to pay bounty hunters and they are a few then its going to be much as they few people get to share from the pool

Bounty campaigns requires many participants to ensure a wider coverage unfortunately the project team managers are not living up to their expectations in terms payment to bounty hunters who had sacrifices their time and energy a lot of these projects does not have a clear cut and feasible project they are mainly after investors funds once they got these funds they tend to abandon the project mid way thus allowing the values of those tokens paid to hunters to drop and dump massively rendering the services of hunters worthless its a pity these had been going on unchecked.
The way is out is for hunters to be selective in participation of bounty hunting after a thorough research.

The chance if getting a good reward from a bounty Campaign that accepts unlimited bounty hunters is low because even if the token of that bounty project has better value on exchanges the reward will still be small because of too many participants, I'm so against this, limited participants Campaign are better

DIA was not listed by the project. Project still have their tokens locked. This “50 times growth” can be a trap by early investors. Just wait for 18 august, when tokens are unlocked, and see how the price will go up and “how traders/buyers/other” buy token with pumped price (hoping for more growth).

Mark my words!

Scamming is really what makes bounty hunting a very risky thing to follow. A bounty reward is somewhat a lucky thing. It is either here or there for a user who embark for bounty hunting. They might announce a big reward but might close up after they collect buyers money in ICO sales.

yes there are 2 possibilities to get a reward commensurate with your efforts in promoting the bounty project, including participating in the signature bounty  or taking part in social media, especially Articles & Videos. Usually these programs have few participants and if the project is successful then you can get big prizes too.

I just know this right now and is that means those coins were getting traded on the exchange sites are IOU token or what? Sometimes when exchange site was doing unofficial listing doesn't meant that's a fake token but some people able to trade their token with their own risk.

Noted good words. Yes you're right still locked their token but if they have good product then nothing problems. Because where the holders get the most opportunity, they will spend the capital to get profits.
You can see oks project they have 3 products like (stake, minit and swap) and oks are moving forward at a very good speed so good projects are always ready to prevent dump.

DIA token is available on uniswap and poloniex too, they are both official listing and yes the bonding curve is still ongoing, the only thing that makes me think that this project will have more value is the burn of the remaining unsold tokens that will happen on the 18th of August.

Oikos DeFi project is a awesome project with reliable team who knows what they are doing, I missed the first bounty but now I joined the second round since every bounty hunters that joined the first round got paid, that's honest of the team, not all bounty campaigns pay bounty hunters

True, it could be tough to get a high quality bounty projects this days but not impossible, bubbalex introduced DIA bounty project a month ago with just 4 weeks campaign and this token costs 2.6$ to 3$ per token, the whole bounty allocation is 100k tokens and the BM used limited participants strategy, lucky are all those bounty hunters who joined this campaign, it will be the best of this year so far

Am not still sure if Bounty Detective is going to do anything to limit hunter participation in every of its bounty. It looks like the more the participants the more their credibility in the bounty circle. Well, it is a matter of time before hunters begin to move away if they are not getting the best of rewards for their stress. This was how some bounty managers lost credibility in the past as their bounty rewards were small and in some cases the projects scanned. Wish bounty detective will listen and limit hunter participation.

If you can't buy the token through Curve you can use uniswap V2 instead, it works like charm if you don't mind the insane ethereum gas fee, the original token is available on uniswap and poloniex exchange right now

Example of projects that gives good reward, I can't seem to remember any project as most projects that are successful does not give good reward to the bounty hunters, maybe my expectation is just too high?


There is a chance, that's given, but would that result to a price that bounty hunters would be satisfied? if there's no proof, it's hard to believe.

Only if you know in which bounty you should particiapte. Still a lot of shitty/scam projects out there

I also heard this. The DIA project is brought by Bubbalex, and currently, the price is quite high. well, it will be a spectacular bounty when the price is still like this, or even higher when the tokens for the bounty are distributed. I want to see further progress in this project.

I missed out on that DIA project bounty campaign, that bounty will top the list of the best bounty projects in 2020 for sure, Congratulation to all that promotes DIA project, I believe good projects will come around and presently Oikos is the best one after DIA so far

DIA CEO intentionally reduced the bounty allocation because he knew that more than 100,000 DIA tokens will worth too much, it's why I don't complain, I knew that this project is capable just like how big chainlink is today, I promote this project and I plan to hold some tokens when I get my bounty share later, it's a very impressive project

It's still possible to get good rewards from bounty Campaigns but the chances are getting slimmer, this year so far I've seen too low projects with good qualities and use cases, so far here are lists of best bounties

1. Cartesi
2. Oikos
3. Dia ( if they pay bounty hunters )
4. Hex
5. ARCS ( though too many participants joined )

Others are not up to standard, for me atleast.

That does not make any sense. How can the token be officially listed while bonding curve is not finished? I can buy DIA token at the price of $0.05 from the team (their sale ends only August 18) (https://medium.com/dia-insights/bonding-curve-distribution-faq-d07bd045d450), and later sell in on uniswap with the price of $2.5+. I'm 100% sure that it won't work that way.

Also in the article it is mentioned "The DIA team will ensure tradability on Uniswap after the bonding curve sale". See the word "after" ? I think it counters your "official listing".

I agree participating in social media campaigns is not worth working on, because the rewards you get are very small.
That was due to the large number of participants who joined social media campaigns. Please participate in Articles,
Youtube and Signature Campaigns to get big rewards. Because the three Campaigns cannot be followed by all participants,
there are requirements that must be met. Therefore, if there is a bounty campaign, I have never participated in social media
campaigns.

In 2017 and 2018, many people are interested in becoming bounty hunters and are willing to leave their jobs in the real world to become bounty hunters in this forum, and that increases campaign participants so that they can reduce the share of prizes, social media and participants. articles can reach more than 1000 However, this year many have experienced a decline, perhaps because many were disappointed by the project that failed and did not get a prize.
with a smaller number of participants may be able to get more prizes, provided the project is not a scam..

I also saw the Injective protocol campaign, they have a 30k $ budget paid in ETH, but they are not limited to participants. So each person only gets a few dollars for the 6 weeks of work. If the bounty hunter wants to receive a good amount of money, they should opt for projects that limit the participants

I actually stopped caring about things like thered be too much participant that would join the project im working on eventually. I just get as much work as i can i guess and hope id get a good one. But sure ill take your advice and look into it.

only stupid people left their main job to become bounty hunters. I think only 1 from 20 people were really able to make good money

There are so many bounty hunters today, and they mostly play on social media because it's an easy thing like you said.

I suggest just following videos or articles and signature bounties because the prizes are quite large. But make sure to create content that is valuable and easy for the general public to understand.

Some people may become full-time bounty hunters because they have tips for getting huge profits through bounty, no matter how many people join, they can get the most out of using their method when bounty is their main job but if we don't have such special and useful methods, it's really pretty dumb when we spend a lot of time on bounty. That time should be spent on jobs where our expertise would be more useful, bounty is just a job in our spare time, the past could be very profitable but now is very little.

Indeed, only a stupid man will leave their main job just to become a bounty hunter,

But if you know what happens during the year 2016-2018 where bounty campaigns are really hype, there are also a lot of people who disregard their job just to focus on bounty hunting.

In 2017-2018, the number of new bounty hunters has really increased dramatically. However, over the past two years, almost all of them have again ceased to be active on this forum, disillusioned with this activity, since in recent years, participation in ICO bounty campaigns has become not very profitable.
 To participate or not to participate now in the bounty ICO campaigns must be decided by each of us based on the availability of free time and many others and circumstances. Of course, this can only be a hobby and additional income for the main job.

Yea, the best time for bounty has passed. If they spent all their time on bounty in 2017, I think they would have had hundreds of thousands of dollars with it. But now bounty is dead and there aren't too many successful projects left, so only join bounty as part-time job

I also saw that some campaigns that were managed by him only gave a little reward because initially they did not limit the number of participants who joined but recently they have implemented participant restrictions and this at least helps participants get rewards according to their work for 12 weeks

Yes indeed. doing a bounty campaign could still be rewarding. But to get high rewards, you have to do a lot of effort. Unlike the bounty campaigns of the past years that whatever campaign you join, you can be sure that stakes are high. Now, you should be joining hard tasks with very few participants to get a good enough reward.

yes, I totally agree with all of your arguments, that many bounty hunters who join the social media bounty make the rewards received smaller because of the large number of participants. Few of the YouTube campaigns participated, because the criteria were quite difficult to get subscribers, and people are rarely interested in seeing YouTube about crypto projects, even if you don't have as many viewers as other YouTube channels. It's very sad, with a long bounty duration, and we are only rewarded for less than 5 $, very sad

2017-2018 i was a full bounty hunter, at that time being bounty hunter was very earning, i get almost $ 11000 in 8 months, get my used dream bike, fix my house, travel locally and still have small saving and get married, but now im comeback to my old job after bounty is not as busy as before. I hope bounty will rise again and BTC price will go back to the same high as last year because I still have some assets that need to be exchanged.

Because it takes a lot of effort to make Video and articles and of course will give huge reward(not always depends on the project) but you have to know the criteria for video and article is so hard, not all members can do that. So I don't agree to ignore participants. We must calculate everything including many of participants

The bounty team must be more creative in marketing strategies, so that it can easily attract investors and bounty hunters. The more people who promote the project, the better the prospects for a project in the future.
yeah, I totally agree with your opinion, as a bounty hunter we must be more selective when participating in a project, So that our time is not wasted on projects with unclear directions and goals.

Bounty payment depends on how successful the project turns out. I have participated in some social campaigns that paid well and some are worthless. Bounty detective campaigns are so long and you get exhausted as the weeks continues. Taking HOMT as example, the bounty is expected to end this week but surprisingly the project was dumpt yesterday, might be team or group of dumpers.

You fee disappointed for this kind of result after working for 3 months and tokens are paid for $10 months of work.  ??? ???

It's logically impossible to get huge reward when participants are many. The campaign that gets the highest reward are mostly translations and that's because they get the list participants. Signature, articles and videos are even getting high participations now, especially when the project are listed and the tokens are doing well. Social media has the highest participation and the reward are the least most times.

Is is absolutely through and funny enough sometimes not the population gets to get reward as some copied works would finally gets zero so it's better to trust your fate and keep doing the bounty. Moreso, I have seen a situation whereby many did social media bounty and got very huge reward so it all depends on the project, bounty manager and scores.

That’s very true, they are easy to carry out but sometimes we stand the chance of making some valuable money especially if those bounties come with many rules like “ one comment per day, two hour interval between likes/shares” and the likes. Most people do not observe these rules and at the end even though many were involved, a few get paid thus more money.

"Hope" isn't a business strategy. Doing the right thing is. There is no certainty what price will be once a project is exposed to the dynamics of market forces. The market decides what price best suits a coin/token. It could be up or could be down. This is where getting enough quantity of bite off any bounty one partakes in matters. The more quantity one has the best the chances of one making a nice return, especially if price is down. You don't want to be paid 100 units of a token whose price is less than a cent. That won't make much sense to hunters.

You hit the nail on the head right there. Limit on number of participants seems to be favourable especially when the budget is not that robust. A clear example is DIA, and Oikos too had to apply limit after seeing huge sign ups. I think Bounty detective should consider this move as well considering how diluted rewards can be due to many participants.

though what you said is right to some extent, as of now project manage by bounty detective give high percentage to social media now, which can make social media to earn more also, and also give signature high percentage. what i felt that for one to get high reward, one should participate in
1. Social Media
2. Signature with good rank
3. Article
4. Video optional

 to make good reward.

Why Did You Using Capital Letter In Every Words ?
Anyway, we can still get huge reward in bounty, by trusting their project and hold the token we received.
The token price in the present maybe very low, but we won't know if it will skyrocketing in the future.

Bounty detective prolong of bounty duration weakens hunters in participating in campaigns managed by them. What makes hunters to functionally perform a task is a perfect bounty allocation with a minimum duration, two months campaigns is enough for a hunting diaspora, into he case of detective campaign of three months, this actually reduces the the number of social media participants because reporting works in twelve weeks does not worth it and sometime rewards are in cents. Nice one on detective for minimising their campaign duration.

There is one thing you forget: They can make it profitable by using alt acc for social media campaigns to yield better rewards. But yes, if you're the real legit social media users, your chance to earn something from it is very very low. Dont bother and try to join in bounty campaigns that actually require effort or at least, not easy to cheat or abuse by alts.

Huge reward is a bit exaggerate, but we can still get the reward from bounty campaign yes.
What we should do is looking for a good real campaign, too many scam campaigns that hasn't paying the hunters nowadays.

There are some certain criteria where bounty rewards allocated which are presented as percentage of total bounties, the reason why social media reward and Signature campaign sometimes pay low due to the fact some hunters have multiple accounts being enrolled to social media campaign and its the easiest way to join a campaign, while on the other hand content creation like Video content is not so appealing to some since it takes a lot of effort and sometime the requirement is very hard to meet.

Indeed, joining YouTube or article Campaign provides high rewards because few people participate there, But the rules there also very difficult, In the YouTube Campaign you must have good video quality, at least 500 views etc. And in article Campaign also has difficult rules. So the choice in your hands.

The situation now is diffrent, there are just few bounty participants comparing with the most profitable bounty years 2017 and 2016. I remember when there was more than 5000 twitter participants in average. Now there are about 300-500 twitter campaign participants.

Yeah, if you will target the less participants with a higher bounty allocations then you can surely get a huge rewards at the end of the
bounty campaign like (Translations,blog/video and signature campaign). Though most of bounty hunters are avoiding this because they don't like to put an extra effort or they don't have the resources
to do it.

Frankly speaking, you are right. Social media campaigns will only give you a very low rewards because of huge participants.

As for article and Vvideo campaigns I have the impression that the further the worse. If in 2017 you could find interesting articles about the project with an analysis of its specifics and nuances, now it is clickbait.
Personally, I have no desire to spend my time on this, since doing bad is going over my principles, and doing good and getting as much as the usual "ctrl+C-ctrl+V" I do not want to.

This is why every bounty hunters should know their limit when participating in bounty projects. Always check your stake against others to see if you have a chance to earn a decent reward for your time. If not, looking for another bounty project or simply try to increase your stake by investing in your skill and ability in content writing or video making, stuff like that.

I know people who have earned a lot of merits on this forum for their quality work. everyone who will make enough efforts to get a new rank will be able to achieve this

You're right but earning big from video campaigns requires having a huge number of subscribers to your page on YouTube. Having less than required followers means no payment and even if you have minimum required number of followers, you lose more stakes in advantage of the participants with high number of followers or subscribers.

Even the reward for the Article is also on the very low side, Articles and videos on Bounty Detective now, get as low as $20 and this is not just speculation but fact, the only way for hunters to earn good rewards again is if participation for each campaign is limited

I guess only option for the hunters is to do translations now, I heard the translators earn a lot of money when it comes to bounty reward hunting. Signature campaigns were a good choice for bounty hunters back in 2015-17 after that a lot more people started joining signature campaigns after which article bounty was a good choice whose era has also come to an end now and only possibility to earn good rewards in bounties is now to do translation jobs and hope that your work get selected by the manager for translation, then you can earn decent amount of money from the translation.

Exactly my thought, for hunters to earn good rewards now, they should join campaigns or projects that have limited but there are very few projects that are implementing that, so in my own perspective gone are those days that hunters gets good rewards from bounties

in my opinion, it can only be done when you take part in a bounty whitepaper and translation, or maybe a blog and video campaign,
even though there are a lot of participants, but for social media campaign then obviously you will get a little reward

I'm not in the mood to gamble with bounties that don't use limited participants or escrow nowadays, many bounties tokens have good value but too many participants and you will earn pennies only for 4 to 6 months work

There's also another way: good bounty projects usually have a lot of participants but that only the perimeter of how bounty hunters see in that project. Some hidden gem in the bounty section that doesn't have many participants because of some simple reason like coin hasn't listed on an exchange yet. Go for the one low in demand but have some potential instead crowdy bounty one.

 in most cases the reward for a participant depends on the type of campaign and the allocation of token for that particular campaign and the number of people joining the campaign. I have noticed that signature campaigns do give higher rewards especially for those participants with higher ranks . But for social media like facebook and twitter , the reward is usually low because alot of participants are involved to share the allocation.

A few years ago, when there were a lot of bounty campaigns and many paid generous rewards, I participated in social media and writing articles. But then it was my main income and I had a lot of time. For articles I could get both $ 100 and $ 500, and sometimes nothing. There were, it seems to me, two projects that rejected my articles without explanation. But now I consider the most lucrative a signature campaign. This suits me, because I'm not in front of the computer all day and there are usually few participants here.

Some bounty allocation are now are not enough for the project that we always seen.
Not like in the past year 2017 if we look at the bounty allocation in that are in good to invest and participate a bounty. And the one thing I must concerned on why the bounty allocation of project because of these scam project are always come up in the bounty altcoins trying to lure people to the project they have.

For article, in my opinion the rules often change sometimes they have to require certain conditions, for example having to have high traffic and not being allowed to post them on free platforms like medium, steemit, and the like, for signatures at this time there are rarely a few participants because DeFi hype, of course there are many who try their luck following signature campaign and I think the participants if there is a limit it might reach nearly 200 user.

If you are doing quality posts on the forum and helping people throughout your post then there must be a higher possibility to get merits. As well if you are doing posts for bounty campaigns only then it won't help you to earn merit.

Now I don't see any campaigns with really big budgets like the years before. Most campaigns only have budgets between 10-50k $, and the price can crash several times after being listed in the exchanges. Since the beginning of 2020 I have only received a few tens of bounty dollars, which was really bad for the time I spent on it.

One way to get huge reward in bounty is to study the campaign and know the ones with lesser participation. From my study, I've noticed that social media has the highest participation across several bounty projects and this makes it the least rewarding campaign. The most rewarding are the translation and signature, especially when the signature needs high ranking participants. One could make a whole lot of money from these bounty campaign.

Signature campaigns are no longer as good as before, allocating very little for a signature campaign. I have been involved in a few campaigns this year but not getting too much money from it, even a few projects continuously delaying token distribution.

because for social media is actually more easy task than signature or content that make social media campaign full.
i also participate in social media and signature to get more reward, and always review project that i promote berore join.
because i dont want work for nothing, or wasting my time although sometime i got low pay.

Hmm yeah, but i doubt that. You cannot get huge reward if there are many participants join the campaign, unless it is a fixed rate based campaign.
If you look at the articles and videos participants, you will see that there are many participants too.
So, participating in articles and videos campaign won't make us received huge reward i think.

If we compare the bounty campaign right now and in the bounty of year 2017 it was a big difference right ? Because in this days have so many scam bounties we only face everyday in bounty altcoins and few of them are trusted the most.  If we receive a bounty rewards right now Ill think it was few dollars only if we trade it in a exchange site they have.

Articles are always that rewarding anymore too, now some bounty hunters know how to steal others articles and change few words and submit several times to the bounty form, article campaigns now have big participants too

Actually got a point. But we are not sure how the process of every manager will sync in. I like manager with limited participants but also I am aware that only few doing this. I myself will not participate if the campaign budget will be diluted due to massive participants.

Im only doing signature cause this is the easiest campaign that I can do and have a good budget or reward. Anyway I have no choice but to join this particular campaign.

It won't matter anymore either joining articles or video campaigns because we have too many bounty hunters on this forum now, one will need to work harder and probably join all available campaigns to get high rewards from bounties

agree with you op. Singature can be the good source of huge reward cause one hunter is allow to join only one project signature when a lots signature campaign is available of others projects at the same time. Joining article and youtube is also samilar as signature But its quite hard for article and youtube cause need to have good quality of knowledge for those work to done

A signature campaign is the same, you need to have a high ranking account to get more stakes, and you need to post constructive posts. Now I see content campaigns as better because they usually get a lot higher budgets than signature campaigns.

Need a high rank to get more rewards in signature campaign, But the bounty campaign has been make a full of scam because of this social media campaign has more new account doing social media campaign and making spam in this forum. Even if the bounty campaign its a scam or a low bounty allocation they are pursuing themselves to join that kind of bounty campaign.

Bounty rewards always get shitty with so many crowd. Only few ones with participant targets pay well, but even some still pay shitty reward or token gets bad at the end of the campaign. The only thing to watch out for is good bounty managers hosting good campaigns with accurate reward. Tho hard to come by, but pays to work with and get good reward.

But there is no use of perticipating singature, article or youtube campaign if the bounty isn't good enough. Now bitcointalk bounty sector is full of scam bounty, there is no valid information about them.a Few are good but full of unlimited hunters. So it's not possible to have high reward right now even if anyone perticipate article, youtube or signature campaign

I don't think so. There are lot of members who is earning god amount of money by doing signature campaign, article & YouTube campaign. But yo have to be professional to earn good amount. Also you should choose right campaign. I saw DIA campaign where senior member earned 1253 DIA. which is huge amount of money. DIA price is 3.5$ which mean 4300+$. Can you imagine that? So If you join in legit project and work properly then you can get huge reward.

I got curious and I check that dia your takin about , their distribution is done by stages and not full payment . Anything can happen before they receive all the token  . The price of the coin can dump or maybe they can't get paid , we don't know .  this is why I don't like to join a bounty because of weird rules . On a campaign I join , there's a lot of memeber and this cuts the reward but it's okay at least payment is sure and the pay is on btc .

i just discovered this yesterday and i have decided that i will work hard to write articles because it pays well better than the social campaigns. the article writing when writting properly and well defined can earn you great reward with less time spent than joining the social media campaign.

If you have a talent writing articles it was a better choice for you and writing articles Ill think it was same rewards from signature campaign even if your rank is in low for now in article they are not basis of what your rank the important is your knowledge in writing. If I have knowledge on that maybe many trusted bounty campaign in here Im going to participate each of them.

Knowledge isn't giving something, we have to earn it. Actually we should gain all knowledge about campaigns. Because, some managers like Signature and some managers like video & articles. Look at the DIA project where I can't see videos & articles. Cartesi has both but allocation is low in content and videos.

^ it is not difficult to become a good article writer if you already have strong intentions. prize sharing in social media campaigns is very low in almost all ongoing campaigns.

Focusing on signature campaigns, articles, translators, and YouTube are the best ways to get better rewarded.

I know bounty detective managing campaigns are legit, especially Terracredit, 3WM and Corionx. Always for so many hunters, we get only low rewards in the " bounty detective" campaign. Even articles and video campaign hunters get low rewards in Bounty Detective managing campaign. Only HOMT bounty allocation was 320K USD, let's see the distribution value.

usually the level of difficulty in the job you choose has higher rewards compared to easy jobs such as Telegram, Facebook and Twitter campaigns. If you choose a slot like Video, of course, this will make you get a bigger token reward compared to other social media slots.

So from that I participated in signature campaigns where the participants were not as many as social media campaigns.
So the rewards we get can be quite large, even though sometimes payments from bounties can be delayed for a long time.
At least be a lesson for us, when going to participate in bounty campaigns, campaigns with a small number of participants is
the best choice for get good rewards.

I think if anyone has skill for higher tier reward, they would, of course, apply for that slot. But many times, those slots only have a very limited number of participants available so they need to be fast as well. If not, they will only get the bottom of barrel reward.

Indeed...If bounty Hunter is only participated on social media bounty , they Will get a less reward if participants that join is very much.
For get more reward bounty Hunters can also joining signature campaign.

I think it stilo depends on what campaign you are going to partake in, example in social media campaign, if there are lots of participants there might be low pool rewards to be received same thing with Signature Campaigns. But if you are skill enough, and you can do multiple things like writing an article, creating video content then that more likely be a more profitable campaign.

There are different situations, because it happens when you participate in social networks bounties and in videos or articles bounties, and at the end, when the bounty ends and you check your tokens and you see that sometimes you get more tokens for social networks than for articles or videos.

it depends on what campaign you are participating in for example if you can provide something valuable like translation or having a lot of subscribers followers u can still make a decent profit and stand out.

Video campaign, article writting, blog posting etc tasks are relatively tough. Need skills, good knowledge about blockchain, have to be good in grammer. So, hard workers will get higher reward. But not easily.
I usually avoid the campaigns, already have thousands of participants.

As long as you select a good project which has a valid use case it doesn't matter how many participants it has the bounty will surely reward you. For example I am in Payaccept now and I have high hopes for it to succeed .

It will actually be an honor to gt the list of projects that i can involve myself in that can pay me those big  and huge rewards you talk about. I have done loads of jobs in expectant of the rewards that can be compared to the type that was paid before now and it is not forth coming. So, please update me with the list of projects, thanks.

Dear OP, A good bounty manager will still be a good, if the project fails. No one knows what will happen to a project in future. We just experiment, sometimes we get good result and add value to a token. Sometimes we get hurt from a outcome. Thats it. A good manager is one who performs cordially, helps community. Inspite of his effort, even a good manager's project may fail.

Every day new projects are always born by project developers, so it will be a little difficult if someone makes a list for the project every day, especially for the subject of the project there is also a special sub forum that you can see and read carefully, so take your time. for it and never be lazy to read it.

You are right, a good manager is not only seen from his successful projects. How to manage participants, as well as rules that might be liked by a bounty hunter, can make him a good manager even though not all projects that are handled are successful.

If you look at the Bubbalex manager, you can see that all the projects are successful and the community is also growing well. but not all of them are successful. If you look at the Agareum project that was finished almost a year ago and it looks like everything looks bad.

Do you count Payaccept as a good bounty? I happen to participate in it also (only in social media campaigns). Now is the last, 12th week of the campaign and spreadsheets are filled only till week 4 for social media, and signatures till week 7. Can you be sure that all your stakes will be counted correctly, or you did something wrong on week 5 and worked other weeks for 0 stakes? Bounty manager is a weird guy in telegram group - he says he fills all the spreadsheet data offline and will update online table on the last day.

Indeed, video campaign also needs at least a basic level of video editing.  I have seen several participants joining this campaign but lack that basic skill.  They just record and upload, so I think this would be one of the better campaign to join if one has skills in video editing since it will surely give a good reward if the bounty manager appreaciate high quality works..  the only negative side of this is, if they also consider the number of views and not just the video creation itself.  This will only means that a poorly created video can outpay the quality one if they beat it to views.

I heard bubbalex and BountyDetective are quite reputable in altcoin bounty management.  Also there is Hhampuz, Yahoo62278, Darkstar_, Zwei and many more that is very reputable when it comes to managing  BTC weekly payment campaign.

I disagree. They are popular, but doubt that reputed. I've made a short review (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5264326.msg54901142#msg54901142) of bounty campaign under their management in 2020. Info is 1 month old and here is what have changed- HOMT, 3WM and TERRACREDIT campaigns are finished now. Nothing has been distributed so far. Also I had some troubles with TERRACREDIT - I've participated in it, but havent found myself in spreadsheet. I've made a question in complaint form and this question was answered in 2 weeks after "spreadsheets are turned to project owners".

And their "distribution guaranteed" - they guarantee, but say that bounty hunters participate in campaigns by their own risk. If the projects is scam, unsuccessful, postpones or refuses to distribute rewards - that is not of their business. 

Usually what makes the project fail to pay and make many participants disappointed is because the CEO did not pay the participants directly and did not match what had been agreed upon, the bounty manager's job was only to manage the participants of the bounty campaign, while the payment then it is the developer's business, but if you realize that sometimes there are bounty managers who already hold the payment allocation for the bounty campaign participants.

You just have to keep trying friend, even reputable bounty managers introduce projects that turned bad later, whatever will happen to a bounty project after bounty is over will always remain unknown to everyone, bounties are base on lucks

I personally stopped participating in social media campaigns a long time ago, it's always a waste of time and effort, i prefer to participate in signature campaigns cus the pay is always better even if they are many participants, just like the op said, those with lower ranks in here can always opt for article and video campaigns, though they can be very stressful though.

Well yes the bounty signature campaigns are giving much better rewards compared to social media campaigns, but I think this should not be our first concern. Because no matter how good the rewards is (despite of having many participants) if the project itself is not doing good then it will all be wasted. It can fail or turn as scam, thats why before we look for projects allocation for each promotion check first if it has potential to succeed in the future.

It's true that a project must have a very good use case to acquire good demand but if too many bounty hunters promote such project the reward won't be much, I still prefer bounties that introduce limited participants and fixed tokens, if none like this happens be ready to join multiple campaigns at once to atleast get good reward

Too many participants will always ruin rewards for bounty hunters, I've learned my lessons and nothing can change that, bounty projects like ARCS and IQCash are good example about why unlimited participants is a bad choice, these projects are trading already but bounty manager or team allowed too many participants and in the end many get 10$ to 15$ from these projects, bounty hunters that participate in Cartesi bounty are able to make 100$ to 500$ simply because the BM use limited participants

Cartesi is not the best example in this case. Bounty hunters managed to get high rewards mostly because of IEO and listing on Binance.
Despite it, it will be really hard for Cartesi to stand out in cryptocommunity with only 1 product case (Creeps game) and that time DApps on Linux where not the most demanded ones.

That's right, cartesi has the support of a successful IEO and exchange. they can manage bounty participants well, especially with a limited number, and also the distribution is done gradually. it keeps the result from having a bad change.
most bounties that have a large number of participants will not generate large payments. as for those of great value, it does not happen quickly. takes a long time to wait for the price to get better.

I would join only those campaigns which have been added to exchanges, I would appreciate if they make the number of participants limited, quality is more important than quantity, why some people don't understand that!
I think they need to stop newbies to run bounties, at least people don't put their efforts on scams like unidapp things!

Yes you will still be able to make some money from bounties that has no limited participants but the reward will be too low to cover the money you sent on data, it's not about getting a reward, it's about getting a reasonable amount of reward, what good is there to promote a project for months and get 10$ in return?

it all depends on how the project is if the project is good even though the bounty hunters are many will definitely get a big profit
I've experienced this before the most important thing is  coin is listed on the market large volume, large enthusiasts and coin could pump

It is a fact at times that you support so much for the months and in the end you end up getting either peanuts or the coin price falls badly on start itself resulting in the end no money being made form the coin. This type of scenarios is far more and thus many have shifted from the bounty campaigns because it may not be worth their time.

Many are still joining bounty campaign to make money, despite the population of hunters in the campaign many are still making a huge reward at the end of the campaign.
I guess,those that make huge reward are those who really understand how social media work and how you can do your personal research to make a reliable profit at the end of the campaign.

Not everybody that is participating in bounty campaign, know how to achieve high profit but some are just there for a long time without achieving any big reward because most of them lack instructions. Those that got huge reward always follow rules and regulations of the campaign till the end.

High quality Youtube videos, well-written articles, finding bugs and offer solutions, or creative campaigns are the ones that pays good (but not all, because it still depends on the market price, trading volume, etc.). Translation campaigns are so limited and hard to take spots because of too many candidates along with their portfolio. At least they pay decent amount rather than airdrops and social media tasks (with the exception of UNI of course).

I never participate in social media campaigns anymore, as they pay too low. Just saying.

Yes, it all depends on the project, but we also have to see the amount of allocation given by the project to the bounty program, if the allocation is small and the project is good, then automatically the participants will get a little profit, because a good project will always be enlivened by participants bounty.

You are very right mate, i personally have had many of that experience in many signature campaigns, most of the tokens I earned from those campaigns are still sitting in my wallet with no means to sell them cus some of those projects have been abandoned, some have turned scam, others are simply too slow with development and are yet to even get listed on an exchange.
We all should be very careful of this kind of projects.

That's something that holders need to worry about or Bounty Hunters who likes holding tokens, what this guy is really saying is that Cartesi bounty campaign is the best so far probably because the BM used limited participants, I knew someone who made 800$ from Cartesi bounty, this is possible because of limited on participants

As i know that video campaigns have less participants but article campaign haven't less participants now a days. Reddit and Linkedin campaigns have relatively fewer participants.  Hunters must know the bounty pool before joining the bounty. I think if you are not greedy and verify bounty before joining, even if there are more participants, the payment will be better.

Usually the manager will limit the number of participant who will promote the bounty because the prize allocation is small. This will be an advantage for the participant who is accepted because the number of prize he will receive is still within a reasonable limit. The allocation of fund does not affect the burden and responsibility of the promotion participant. Therefore, participant restriction is required for campaign with small prize allocation.

I know that Article campaigns and youtube campaigns will help me earn more money but my dedication will be much reduced.  I don't know how to write reviews and can't do YouTube, so it loses the quality of my work.  I've gotten used to chatting with members here, I still do better Signature and accept lower pay.

If I’m not confusing something, those who joined Oikos medium bounty campaign (task was to follow their account), got same amount of tokens as average quality video review.

Not always article of video campaigns are more profitable than simply retweeting or liking posts. Hunters must look on a budget given and number of participants already joined.

like the projects managed by the bounty detective manager, the projects they offer have an average length of time, even up to 12 weeks I've joined before and only get $ 50 in 12 weeks. since then I started to stop and look for a project that I think is even better.

It is really the matter of choice when it comes to bounty hunting because that is where we have to figure out what bounty we are capable of. If you are a content creator with enough subscribers and views then youtube campaign is for you. If you are good at writing articles then you can apply for that position with a decent payment. There's a lot more like signature and social media campaigns. But that does not guarantee legitimacy or whether the bounty program will ever pay us even when we have those skills. Some are legit but gives shit tokens, some run away and disappear. Bounty hunting nowadays is somewhere between 50/50 just a matter of luck if you got your tokens with potentials and of course value matters too. It is not about how many participants, it is how's the result of our invested time and efforts.

If the duration is up to 12 weeks with the reward you get only $ 50, I think it is not worth the time you have spent promoting them, but you have also found a very wise step by stopping following the project from bounty detective.

Try this in a scamming system that seem to have taken over. Many hunters are now withdrawing interest to participate in bounty because of their negative experience. Nothing is more disappointing than being scammed after doing your part. Many bounty begin to introduce conditions after bounty end.

No, it is almost impossible. You can't get huge reward in bounty when too many participants joined.
The campaign usually based on the stakes of the participants. So, if the participants are too many, then the rewards will split according the stakes they earned. We can get huge reward if the participants are few, and the reward is huge and can't be changed.

At year 2017, I have joined lot of signature campaigns and I sometimes get mad to the manager because he/she do not limit the participants of the campaign. Sometimes it already 300 or 400 participants but still accept or even though the campaign is in its last week, it is still open for new participants. But even though there are lot of participants, the reward is still huge. The only unfair thing is that there are times that other participants get reward even though they did not do anything for the campaign. If those rewards goes to those who really deserve then it will be a bigger reward for them.
This year, I am happy that there are campaigns that limit the participants. It is also good because they can really monitor each of it.

Well I totally agree with you on this point joining social media campaign nowadays is mostly not worth it because of very high number of participants unlike before.The only advantage of social media campaigns is that it is very much easier for newbies who are new to the system.One can only get huge reward from article,signature and video campaigns which are much more stressful than media campaigns.

Those bounties are really targeting their social media presence and that's why many are joining them because they have set up an easy requirement it.
By which is being joined by a lot of newbies because they can join it and it's not that strict at all.

It's an advantage for them which they know and that is the reason why they don't limit their participants.
And the bounty hunters that are participating on it are not looking into the pool funds, they take chances that bounty will be successful and they'll share with the allocated fund for that bounty.

In fact, to limit participants who join the bounty manager must determine the rank of each participant to join, as in the past that eliminated newbie participants from joining the signature, maybe now is the time for newbies not to join all campaigns so the payment is quite fair

btw what you said is true if the bounty detective makes me stress, all the campaigns he manages don't match the duration

I do agree that Article and Video bounty pays pretty well because it requires more hardwork compare to social media bounties where you can just farm followers/likes

In the 2017-2018, there's several article campaign where i join and get paid around $2000 worth of tokens per article and yeah, that's insane and would never happen anymore i guess :P

With bounties we can't expect such a kind of reward, because depending on the participant and the allocation users will be rewarded by the end of the bounty. By the time receiving millions and millions of tokens isn't required. Get atleast few hundred USD for the work done. As in the OP after 12 weeks of participation earning $5 will make the user fed-up.

That's easy do not participate in a very long campaign, it's tiresome and it's not worth it, check the pool and if they are not limiting their participants and the pool is not that huge then you have something to worry, but if the pool is big and the coin has a good potential you can bear that long campaign.

The main thing here is to determine whether the Bounty program you have chosen will work or not. As for me, link sharing belongs to the most effective Bounties. The more people will follow the link you have left, the bigger will be the award. Another moment is to find out how much money the project managed to raise before you entered it.

Still most of the bounty projects are scam or not paying the reward promise by the team running the project. This is the usual scenario of bounty hunting. I myself had been wasting my time, resources and effort on promoting project and was barely getting scam by the project itself after it ask a small amount to process the bounty rewards. However, it never did happen for I was in doubt that project was scam and it turn out that the project was reay a scam project.

Now, I can advise to the new comers to join project that has been run by a higher ranks for I know that before they accept the project they make a research about the project they promote if it is not a scam. They can't get tag of promoting scam projects so they tend to be more careful in accepting and running a bounty projects.

I have experienced similar things, mostly BD campaigns have low budget and due tk there large community the number of participants are huge so in the end the hunters receive very small value of rewards after 2-3 months of work with strict rules. I think BD need to rethink their strategy and they should come up with atleast mid budget campaigns that should be decent enough that each hunter atleast makes over $100 after 2-3 months of work.

Well, hard work must be balanced with smart work.
Social media bounties, the participants are always a lot, this is because the level of difficulty is low, so many join, if the participants are not limited then the bounty hunters will only get pennies. Actually, the social media bounty is still promising if the participants are limited.
The article and video bounty are quite promising, the difficulty level is higher so that there are fewer participants. But we also have to be selective, choose a bounty manager who is truly professional in giving judgments, because there are some bounty managers who don't care so that all articles are given the same stake. And what is clear, the signature campaigns with BTC rewards are the most promising, especially those handled by experienced bounty managers.
Understand your potential, then maximize the opportunities that exist.

I think it depends on what bounty campaign you are trying to join. I observed joining social media post and sharing give very small reward as there are so many participants joining. But if you have a high enough rank, joining signature campaign is sometimes very rewarding if indeed the project distribute stakes. Creating video and content will also give you good amount of stakes.

This is not like 2017 anymore, it's lil bit hard to earn a lot if you just counting on bounty (even if it's from well known manager). the ecosystem is already mature enough and investments are really strict

really appreciatable thoughts. Signature campaign will be an easy opotion to comprlete & get high reward.but it isn't much helpful for newbie as they don't have high rank.but if we talk about writing article or creating youtube videos on any Crypto project, then defenitly those are great oppourtunity for newbie to grab the chance cause join for those campaign, rank doesn't required.most of bounty managers allow newbie to perticipate those campaign

It's been a long time since the work of the bounty hunter is not well rewarded, it's a shame. In addition to that, there are projects that fail to bring their tokens to the exchange or worse, the project fails to launch the product. I think the Bounty Managers should analyze this situation so that everyone's work is fair. Everyone deserves to be paid for hard work.

it all depends on the allocation of the bounty program, if the bounty allocation is only a few, and there are many participants,
then you will not get many results, now the bounty is different, many bounty programs do not have good rewards,
when compared to 2017-2019, The bounty can still give us $ 500, now $ 100 is good for the bounty to pay us

I also worked with bounty detective team.they gave us a few good project. So hunters like to join their project because of their populaty and has a group of millions users.problem is, bounty detective doesn't limit perticipation at all.so it affect on social, signature and also for aricle campaign, thus it is not possible to get high reward from his project through signature or article.so i decided to avoid his project & only join those project, that are seems good to me with limit perticipation.

perticipate social media campaigns and compelecting those task is quite easy for hunters even for a newbie.no extra skill is required for done that task.that's why, more than half thousands of hunters join social media campaign where most of perticipator are newbie.so it's a good idea to join singature especially article campaign and youtube campaign for earn high reward. but for finish those task, need to be skillful and that's absent in most of newbie hunters.

actually the management of the bounty detective is pretty good, I think they are quite professional even though there are some mistakes and shortcomings, but in my opinion it's reasonable. it is unfortunate because they do not limit the number of participants, so the rewards that hunters get tend to be small. if the participants are limited, it will be better, this also applies to all bounty managers, hopefully it can be implemented.

well, regarding the article and video bounty, the difficulty level is quite high, which is why there are not as many joining as the social media bounty. and this is a great opportunity.

You know about DIA right.., and now the new potential bounty is Free Ton, so always depend on the project. And I'm sure many projects will follow it in the future. Don't just blame the bounty managers because as we know "bounty managers" They are just managing the bounties, no guarantee will be great, and he not force you to join

So dyor then find a good one and be confident

currently, you can see that the bounty pool is divided equally. they know that social media campaign has the most participants. so most of bounties make a biggest reward allocation for social media campaign. there are a lot of participants too in article campaign. for now, i think that contents creation (video) has a big reward for now, because it's more difficult and troublesome for participants than the other campaigns so there are not so many participants will join it.

You're correct! Joining extra campaigns on YouTube isn't easy! They are not in every case more successful, they are very tedious. I think if we attempt to partake in high caliber and viable signature campaigns you can likewise bring yourself a great deal of cash. At present I am investing a ton of energy composing posts on topic
