Can you make more money participating in bounties or airdrops? I made the most money doing airdops so far, like the one from Uniswap, but long term, I think bounties like the one from candlelabsdotorg will pay off better. What do you think? Which of these methods of earning free crypto should I pursue?

None. All these are not ways to make money, but a waste of time. Uniswap airdrop is rather an exception to the rule, there are very few such airdrop and they are not for everyone. If we talk about making money on cryptocurrencies, these are sales on lunchpads or testnets. But only those testnets, which have to involve real money, only they can give something in the future, all these free testnetes, where you just perform tasks, out of 100 can give something maximum 1-2, so this is also a waste of time. Almost always any action in cryptocurrency, where there is no initial investment, it is difficult to call earnings, rather just a waste of time and pampering.

participate in airdrops or bounties don't ever expect a lot of money because it's not 2017, participating in both in my opinion is just filling your free time so if you have enough time then do both, who knows luck will be in one of them

I've never effectively joined airdrops and bounty programs because they are confusing to participate and understand. You don't know how much you are going to be paid, you don't know if your work is being counted by the manager, you don't know if the project is going to make it all the way until the launchment, you don't know if the token is going to be listed on exchanges. There are no guarantees and that is terrible, since employees don't have any stability when performing tasks.

After ICOs hype has started, it has become extremely difficult to find worthful earning opportunites to collect cryptocurrency from zero. The ones promoted nowadays, like Coinbase and Coinmarketcap "earn cryptocurrency while learning" features, are extremely scarce and limited. Another alternative is to join a micro tasks platform, like Pico Workers, and cashout BTC, although executable offers are also scarce and there are a lot of cheater users using multi accounts who fastly drain the tasks.

Airdrop are a good way to make money, but airdrop events have evolved from what we know from days back. Now you have to "invest" by joining retroactive airdrops where you get to use layer 2 platforms, buy and stake certain tokens to be eligible for retroactive airdrops, example of such are OP tokens (optimism), Hop Exchange tokens, and lots more. For Staking segment you have the several airdrop received by users who staked Atom, Osmosis, Juno and so on.

To earn from airdrop, these are kinds of airdrops you should look forward to

Profit there are unstable and if you've made so much there then that's good for you. I rarely see people nowadays that have been telling that they're making well off from these two. Usually, in bounties they've got a higher chance of success than airdrops. Gone are the days when most airdrops have been making decent money after the launch of their projects but today, if you're lucky that have chosen a project then that's on you and you can literally say that it's profitable because you're the one that have chosen that airdrops. Bounties and airdrops are just incentives so any of them you pursue, just make yourself aware that they're not stable.

I myself feel confused about how to make more money through the Airdrop route, while we can participate with one account. Maybe some use two or three, but that's also not optimal. For me, bounties are more profitable than Airdrops. We will get a big profit if we hold the coins for some time after the distribution is done. If the price of the coin has increased, then we can sell it. Or by trading with the coins we get. In general, after the distribution is done, the price will drop for a while, so we can buy to increase the number of coins.

I found one airdrop for the role in discord, the name of the project is reptile chronicles, maybe you know some fitches how to get that role

You never can tell which can be more profitable. Participating in any of them is not a guarantee to make huge profit. These stuffs don’t really pay like before, they’re most scams this days in them and the ones you’re lucky with might fetch you little or no profit. But luck still exist as you can still give them a trial if you still want to.

If you managed to earn more money from Airdrops than from Bounty, you are probably choosing your campaigns wrong. Airdrops are usually dust that is given away almost for free, and owners aren't interested in long-term growth at all. When it comes to Bounty Campaigns, it's also not easy to find an honest project, but if you do find one, I'm sure you'll earn more in the long term than with Airdrop.

Gone are the days where you earn alot with airdrops and bounty program .Now you can only earn a little no matter how hard you work in any bounty unlike before where you can easily earn hundreds of dollars from a single bounty airdrops on the other hand are even the worst nowadays most of them are scams and if paid it is usually too little to benefit you in any way.

If you got lucky with those airdrop you can have more money and if you reinvest your reward with Uniswap, most probably you can earn more. Bounties and airdrop are still active right now, we’ve seen a lot of good projects hosting bounty and they are really paying good money to the participants. I believe you can still make money here, you just need to be active and choose the good project to work with.

It really depends. You should always do a minimum amount of research before you invest your precious life's time on some project. A lot of people think they are getting it tokens for free just because they do not have to invest money.

At the end 9/10 projects never even make it and the tokens stay worthless.

But I have earned a decent amount for translation bounty jobs, for example. I had to research the project and if it was worth wasting time on. But really? In reality you still make more or less the same amount of money you would have if it was the same job but paid in fiat or Bitcoin.

I got tired after a while and stopped. Its easier taking jobs where you get paid money, not something that MIGHT become money.

In 2022? I doubt.
But In 2017 during the ICO hype, the bounty and airdrop business was so Lucrative. One could easily make more than $4,000 from a bouty if the token price pumped well once it was listed in an exchange

There is nothing like free crypto bro. Even the airdrops you do take your time and personal data which is valuable

A direct answer is NO. They are apparently unreliable way of earning, they have been ignored by many people knowing that they are useless, majority of these airdrops have small market value or even totally nothing. But, if you want to have some collection of them, wasting your time, this is the thing we do.

But I guess, you don't but I think you also have to try just to prove by yourself and of course, for you to know the sentiment of the participants complaining about unpaid airdrops.

I can make money from both. That's it.

Airdrop was just pure luck and there's no ETA when the next legit airdrop like uniswap will be coming again. My first time to see that candlelabs bounty. I see that if you were also creating an announcement on the bounty thread as well but for me it's not worth to participate.
Just try to do all of things that you think that can give you money.

i think you wrong with this opinion, few months ago i see good campaign vulcan forged and it give alot money for holder that sell it above $15. We shoukd  optimist about bounty future, consistant will make us find good campaign

Signature campaings are another alternative to think about (providing you reach the required rank ),However i like to consider them all as side hustles and not full time jobs i mean couple dollars here and there cant possibly meet all your needs unless if you live in a 3rd world country about to have an economical crisis.

Is not it better if you are trying to visit the bounty section directly? you can know how much people received from doing the bounty task. I meant you shall see various spreadssheet that already published by legit bounty management. I think that you can even calculate how much people received when they were participating in the bounty campaign. Some legit campaigns were paying the token holders a lot. This proves that if the bounty campaign is worthy rather than airdrop.
Bounty better than airdrop

Not all bounties are giving profit to everyone here, though I cannot deny there are some bounty are giving payment in altcoins, and some are via bitcoin payment. And for airdrops, I am not sure about this if we can still get a giveaways for this one. Just be wise in choosing the new bounty campaign here in the forum. It maybe a waste of time to others but for bounties are not a waste of time especially if you know how to determine the legit one new projects.


Correct, this is unprediactable, none of us can say if it is profitable or not, unless if the new projects showings some development to their
program while it is running and building a nice community. Though, in every participation of the projects there is still risk in it. Because, for me
bounties and airdrops are both opportunity here in the forum.

Both of them are good to make money in crypto for free but it all depends of the project to say at least. I have been doing airdrop and bounties since 2016 and I must say that I earned decent money for past 6 years from it. My breakthrough was last year with civic airdrop that really gave me a big profit around $12k and that's all for free. That's why I never stop doing bounties and airdrop, who knows it might again another civic airdrop I will encounter this year.

You may have been lucky with that if you got a benefit but majority of bounty and airdrops hunting are waste of your time. There is no seriousness in the program from the team and developers alike. Some times for bounty, the manager hardly update spreadsheet for posters to know weekly update, this is a sign of unseriousness in my eyes. Is better to invest and wait for the bull and not to wait for bounty or airdrops that you will be asked for KYC and revealing your identity that will be used behind you for other purposes you don't know about.



The only guarantee with escrowed token with the manager is that you get it distributed to your provided wallet but most times athe project to get listed and if it is not listed, the token stand in your wallet as waste. The team that is fraudulent don't bother about escrowing token with the manager because they know they don't intend to be listed, they just use hunters to advertise for free.

There are like hundred topics like this. In short - bounties arent profitable, but can be used to earn small money or will help to create a first crypto portfolio. From projects point of view - they are waste of budget, bounties now hardly help to attract capital. From hunters point of view - bounties are good to build a vision what is on demand on the market, but as a way to earn, they are very unreliable.

Okay, thanks for the feedback. I did earn 25k CNDL so far, so I know this bounty pays out. As far as airdrops, I think there may be two classes of them, one for meme coins and low value token startups and another for large projects like L1s or Uniswap/Metamask tier airdrops. So maybe some airdrops are profitable but most of them are not. That's what I'm thinking at least. If you have the time though, I think you should definitely participate in anything you can to earn extra crypto.

You can't expect more from airdrops let alone bounties, you're just wasting time.  There are many other ways to make money in this industry.  
you better invest in altcoins there are many that lose 95% of their value.  if you are lucky you will get big profit in time

do you know some hints for discord roles? some new nfts gives airdrop for a role in discord

In my opinion, several bounty campaigns are still worthy to follow. Moreover, the bounty has fixed payment with top coins.
But if you are talking about bounty with the native tokens as payment or rewards, it seems to be 50:50. This may be worthy, or this may be shit. Many could earn money from the bounty. But behind the success, there were also many bad experiences of bounty, such as no rewards, scam projects, no listed tokens, shit projects, and others.
In this case, just be smarter when analyzing the bounty that will be followed.
It is also the same with airdrop.  But unfortunately, most airdrops are worthless

Maybe you should lock the other thread you made, OP since this is pretty much the same as you asked in the other thread as well.
Regardless if you're really looking for something to make living, it wouldn't be airdrops.
Lots of scams out there that would just waste your time if not wasting your money.

The risky thing is that you are spending a good chunk of your time, but also you are missing out on entering another one as well. So, while you work hard and get paid nothing after 1 month of work, the person next to you may have spend the same time and effort and get paid hundreds of dollars instead.

It's not just about not getting paid, that could happen and that's sad, but when you add the fact that you could have gotten paid, that makes it even worse. I personally do not join them all that frequently, I rarely do but when I do it, the only thing I care about is getting paid, so that I wouldn't be upset about all the things that I could have done and missed during the same period.

bounty payment help us to collect money no matter that small or huge to buy our first crypto investment. Alot hunter here manage their reward from bounty in trading or long term investment. Everthing depend on our self how to make it growth so we will never blame our amount for bounty.

I think you are new to bounty hunting, just when so many people are already giving up or complaining about bounty hunting you are discussing profit, even these airdrops are not profitable anymore I have one wallet dedicated to airdrops and have received over 50 airdrops and only two of them are converted to profit, profit from doing bounty are a thing of the past, although there are few worth working with there are so many participants and small allocation that it will not satisfy your effort.

What do you mean here, earning from scratch without any talent or capital, I see that you have read some stories about successful bounty programs in the past. Yes! they existed back then and I know some people who actually become successful by joining those rare bounties. I say rare because only 1 in a hundred chances you will be landed on those kinds of projects. Right now they are rare because the competitions and the manager that was legit back then are now unreliable when handling bounties.

That's right, bounties as told are something rare. it's the same with existing airdrops. even it might be 1:1000 which will give a big payoff.
saw a lot of people doing airdrop tasks blindly. I didn't say it was in vain. but I'm sure, many of them do not work honestly.
because obviously, the reason is the meager results obtained. and some bounty and airdrop hunters become greedy to get more.

Bounties are no longer as lucrative as they were few years back. It takes a whole lot to get a lucrative bounty and most of them are basically signature bounties for high level accounts. It's been a while since we last heard about a lucrative airdrop. Uniswap and twt was one of the few projects that gave nice airdrops in the recent past. It may take another bull run to see something of similar nature.

If you have a lot of free time or willing to risk your time for these scammy bounty or airdrop programs, go for it.
I remember before there are a lot of profitable or worth of my time to join especially in bounty programs and airdrops but during bear market, you expect that it is less profitable because most of these projects are scams or failed projects.

Some airdrops these days are not really paying off, as what others said just do the bounties task or join airdrop from your free time and don't expect too much. Still there are a lot of opportunities to join in this industry that you can earn money you just have to do your own research in which your time well paid off. Also, in twitter social media there are many airdrops we could join.

its not more profitable but its less risky and as I think its a good way to start in crypto or nft

That is a gamble you take, since you are not spending any money on it at all, you should not be shocked that it would not be worth your time at all times. Some people work and get paid nothing, some people work and get paid tokens that worth nothing, some people work and they get paid usdt or another stablecoin guaranteed, some people work and get token that may worth even more and make crazy profit.

All of these are possibilities that you accept when you start a bounty, and if you join it, then you accept these results and hope for the best one. It is a shocking result if you gain nothing, neither making a ton of money, they are both possibilities you should have known before you participated.

Things have change alot before you can earn alot from bounties and airdrops unlike nowadays.No matter how hard you work you will only earn little amount.But there are still some that pay Hunters alot upto now but there are only a few who pay such great amount.It is still a source of income for many no matter how little.

The truth is that I don't see anything profitable in AIRDROPS at the moment, I think that Airdrops have passed their time, I have seen that reward campaigns are much safer, also that AIRDROPS that give money is approximately 1 or 2 dollars and apart from that they enter in a raffle to see if they qualify, that is something that should not be done, and it puts many tasks to complete, the truth is that it is a lot of work for nothing, the signature campaigns are a very different thing because the work is rewarded, however there is ue to be careful, it is better to do the campaigns that are managed by some trustworthy campaign managers.

some airdrop still worthed to participate especially retroactive airdrop that specialized for early user in certain platform. If we just join airdrop program with filtering i am believe we will get nothing or maybe only waste or time. Most airdrop program use FCFS scheme which make us has low probability to win. Just like bounty campaign, we should screen it to find the best one.

Bounty and Airdrops are a unique way of earning money in the world. Nowadays, various unemployed youths earn money from here.  I like the spelling better because it is within Boundary Limited and there is no limit to Airdap. Thousands and millions come every day, but I like the fact that Bounty does not come more than two or three times a week and I have a big project. Thank you.

Airdrops can have a good value in the market depending on the project team to develop their airdrop to investors, actually airdrops are the same as tokens in general, only they can be obtained for free with terms and conditions.

I think it's good and bad for airdrops just like bounty tokens in general, do some tasks and get tokens/airdrops.

Retroactive, which I also want to talk about, this is a more practical form of spamming through simple tasks performing tasks on telegram  or tasks through social networks. In order to receive the rewards, users need to participate in the early testing of the project before they release the official product, participants will have to use the product to experience and contribute ideas to help developers improve their products. The most active contributors will receive a reward commensurate with their contribution. This method is very good and requires us to be serious in our work to expect to receive a worthy reward.

What you say is true because not all aidrops are profitable or fail because the system is the same as the usual project, which is different maybe how to get it easily and for free.
But there are also aidrops who are successful with great scores, for example, like the first aidrop, most of them were successful.
Now maybe it's already difficult for us to get aidrop which really works. I myself have never received aidrop so far.

It all depends on which airdrop you take part in. The Arbitrum Odyssey started last week https://twitter.com/arbitrum/status/1539292126105706496, which will last 8 weeks. And despite the fact that the first week has already ended, you still have the opportunity to complete the required minimum of tasks. As for the bounty, most often you will receive tokens that will not cost anything.

Well, you can decide if you are going to participate in them or not but never you will think it give you decent rewards after completing the task, many are got disappointed with the result (that was the truth). On the other hand, they are not reliable to pay you back for your effort, mostly it was just wasted.

Airdrops and Bounty promotions still exist - some get benefit from it but some did not, that will depend on which bounty and airdrop you've joined. You should be having a deep search, otherwise.

Yes, from personal experience, i can tell you that we can earn around 2000$ in a year by joining bounties and if you have good luck in airdrops than you can earn around 5000$ in year, but i win only one airdrop of 100$, so we should always try our luck in these things, but these ways are not permanent ways of earning,
We should learn some other good skill like making, signature design, ann designs, etc to earn extra money, article writing, and signature campaigns,
And at the end your work brings the fruit of your efforts.

The current bounty is the same as the faucets claim in 2016, earning $100 per month is very difficult, this is why I don't rely too much on bounties because I understand that trends have changed, the number of projects that are difficult to get money from investors makes the participant bounty pay very small.

In fact, in the past it was also the case where everyone did not need to depend on the bounty for their life even though they had been paid a very large amount so that they could suddenly become rich. Because before the trend changes, everyone should make this bounty a side job and stay focused on their main job even though the results may be very different.

I think the current airdrops are very difficult, the number of participants is too many and the determination of the winner is tight, so I haven't participated in the airdrop for almost a year, especially Gleam-based airdrops, it takes about 15 minutes, and I think it's a waste of time and it's better to join this forum bounties .

Airdrop are the low effort way to get rewards. Bounty programs require more effort and skill hence they are more likely to pay you a better reward compared to airdrop. If depent on you if you want to spend your time/effort or do you have the skill to participate in it.

Let's say that with the bounty you earn a little more but the airdrops are more immediate even if they ask for a lot of personal data such as e-mail, mobile phone, kyc but this earnings are low compared to a few years ago and can often be a waste of time,is maybe time to move towards and search other more profitable things such as trading, staking, investments

They are not meant to be a money making method. Those things are meant for a bonus while you are posting and learning on this forum, although campaign and airdrops are often being abused by those people for some easy money because it's so easy to make more accounts to join campaigns for couple bucks, what a shame.

But it requires you to trade on that certain exchange in order to be eligible to get the airdrops. It requires you to do something to be eligible to join the airdrops unlike other shill airdrops out there.

if we work totally in airdrop project , many times ita give alot reward than bounty campaign. There alot potential airdrop that may we meet and give thousands dollar.

How much percentage will commonly work worthy for airdrops?
Well, before 2017, airdrop was exactly very wrothy. But after that, most of them are shits. there may be some certain airdrops that are actually paying and worthy to do, but we must be smart and usual to see the chance that the airdrop is exactly paying out and tradable or not. or only dropped into our wallet and be shit tokens.
At one time, we may only do 1 bounty campaign, but we can do many airdrop programs at one time. that is probably one of the reasons why.
But, whatever that we are following, we must be aware that this si crypto industry, moreover airdrops and bounty, so never hope very high expectations on the payment, never dream too high before we exactly get the money in our hand. SO, just analyze the airdrop or bounty smartly and carefullly, because there is also too good to be true projects but worthless.

Binance Launchpad and normal Airdrop is different. airdrop is free. But in the Binance launchpad you have to stake bnb or another coin as there option.
in the other hand Airdrop & Bounty different. And airdrop hunters get only few token coz Thousands of people join an airdrop. But Limited people join the bounty. So the bounty is always profitable from the airdrop.

I'm willing to bet that bounties are better in the long term because they aren't free, they require you to work for them, to perform tasks. Airdrops are just sell pressure for a new project and can hurt it. What do you guys think about giveaways? Have you had any luck with those? So far, the only thing that is working for me is the CNDLchaindotcom beta testers bounty but I am open to suggestions.

shitcoin not found only on airdrop prgram, event project that launched on good launchpad like binance could be too. Take a look on mexc pad, alot shitcoin created there although as we know mexc was one of good exchange with high trading volume.

Being launched or having sale even on top ranking exchange platforms doesnt really signify that it would be a huge success or would really be having that price to be rise up in the future wont be an assurance or totally a misconception for some people thats why it do always carries a certain risk whenever you do consider on joining ICO or pre-sale investment or even dealing with bounty programs and  airdrops on which you cant really tell if a project does have potential or not but of course you could still do such thing about having in depth research on a particular project and make out your own
judgement whether its a good one or not but of course not every decision turns out to be positive thats why you should prepare yourself on what would be the result or outcome.

Those weren't the same as the past. During the days of ICO more projects came into the market. Good number of people benefitted out of it. When the market turned bullish, majority of the tokens grew high and this profited much. Now such scenario isn't available anymore. At times potential projects are getting launched and airdrops provided are done on a random pick. So, here also the luckiest makes money.

Now this is indeed very different when compared to 2017 where at that time bounties and airdrops could provide enormous benefits. The number of
new projects that ended in scams made many investors not trust investing in new projects anymore right now. So for new projects it becomes more
difficult to raise funds, therefore bounties and airdrops provide much smaller rewards now. But that doesn't mean bounty and airdrop will die,
but now we can't expect too high from bounty and airdrop anymore. If we think that bounty and airdrop can be a main job, we should forget
about participating in bounty and airdrop, because we will be disappointed in the end. But if it's just to get extra money it's still worth it for us to do.

Airdrops is  good way to earn money without investing, also when you start

Participating in testnet airdrops can also be a good choice in addition to retroactive airdrops, because so far if we look at both airdrops it is still possible to generate income for us than participating in telegram bots airdrops because most airdrops are run through telegram bots nowadays almost all of them are scams, only a few which actually pays and the prizes are also very small, so far I'm personally only interested in participating with those two airdops.

Name me any airdrop you have taken part, that brought you more than $5 or $10. Please give up-to-date info, or something at least half a year old. Dont give me random project names that you have googled, or mention 1inch airdrop or something from 2018-2020. I need something fresh. But I dont hope that you will name me something, because no one gives free money now. Projects dont have spare funds for that. I've been monitoring airdrops and bounties for a long time and havent seen anything profitable or worth spending time lately.

Both are profitable and you can earn from them as long as you're with legit and trusted projects but do not expect too much because you will only get paid with small rewards or sometimes, coins without value because most ICOs nowadays don't succeed since we're in the bear season. You also have to be skeptical about joining airdrops and bounty campaigns because there are hundreds of scam projects these days.

I think it makes a lot of sense to participate in signature and article campaigns. Of course, it is necessary to research the bounty manager before joining. At the same time, we need to research the project.

I remember an airdrop during my early year here in Bitcointalk.  I remember it was named Community Coin where they airdropped coins which is equal to 1 BTC valuation to the member of this forum.  Yeah, airdrop years back are worth participating while airdrop now is full of scams.   The same goes with bounty programs.  In 2017 and earlier, participating in bounty programs can give us a huge income.  But now, those good days are almost gone.  We can seldom see good airdrop since the majority of them are scams while bounty tends to lean on fixed allocation of rewards per week.  But between the two, I will always choose bounty programs anytime.

The market condition is not safe to enter or participate into bounties or airdrops because most likely, they don't have real long term vision in the market because of their low utility cases that creates low crypto community demand, and that most of them are part of scams. Participating in these bounties or airdrops are just a waste of time, they don't promise valuable profits in the long run.

Currently their are lot's of scam bounties and airdrop but seriously anybody that's interested in participating in either bounty or airdrop, you can go on atleast sometimes you can make little money which I believe it'd better than making nothing. Just follow some reputable bounty managers on the forum then you can be making your money actually it might be small but you will be making some extra funds for yourself. Just have it in mind that bounties and airdrop are not really profitable any more like before.

Definitely agree, there aren't a lot of potential airdrops, most of them are scams, trash. Instead of spending time searching for airdorp to make profit, you'd better find another way to make money faster and more efficiently.

Generally, bad projects do not attract big investors, so they try to attract inexperienced investors by using airdrops in order to mislead them into investing in the project. This method is not new but many newbies still fall into the trap

A few years ago, you might make money with bounties and airdrops and I experienced it so I can say it.
Now, I'm not into it anymore but I think bounties and airdrops right now are just a waste of time. I just don't know why there are still some people who are spending their time on bounty campaigns knowing that their chance of being paid is very low to close to zero.

Uniswap is an exception because it became successful after the airdrop and there are some airdrops in the past that became successful as well but most of the projects are ending up being an abandoned or a dead project.

What do I think? Nahh just find another job and spend it there and not on bounty campaigns and airdrops which will give you nothing but shitcoins. Methods of earning free crypto? I'm not sure TBH. Maybe faucets is the way or staking but you need initial capital to do it.

Exactly it was in the year 2017-2018 along with the development of ICO, airdrops and bounty programs brought huge profits to investors and hunters. Nevertheless, today they are actually dead in some ways because we are no longer able to make money from them in any way.

I think the people who are still reaching for the airdrop are mostly newbies and they are looking to make money from this market. They think this is a market to make money without doing anything.

2017 was a good moment for the bounty campaign as well as the ico project, but after that the bounties weren't that great to follow. Likewise with airdrops, you only hope for something that is uncertain but that doesn't mean it doesn't produce it, it's just that this is not worth the time sacrificed. you should start trying in the middle of a bear market. You can research to invest especially for BTC or maybe altcoins which are recommended by many members in many threads, now is the time to invest at a very cheap price compared to the highest value.

If we are into the look of profitable investment or job, it is better to forget about joining airdrop and bounty programs, they are less profitable and even nothing. Their time was been done already that was last 2016-2017 where you can really see decent bounty rewards and valuable airdrops which are very available to sell but for now, what we got is a big opposite, and the majority are scam/shitcoins.

Well, it was your choice, yet you hear some piece of advice and it's up for you to consider that.

I have to say you could check the data on the previous ones so far, like probably for the past 5 years or so, and can find over 100 projects that was profitable, or at least over 10 bucks to follow up. However, that doesn't mean that it is a good idea, because we had 100's of them per month for the past 5 years and that is why the batting average is quite low.

If you have thousands, probably maybe like 10 thousand of them out there, and only 100 of them made you money, that is a low chance to win something. This is why not many people get super happy about it, you should be trying to avoid that as much as you could and instead find "sure" things to spend your time on.

Some bounties can still be good, you just need to choose the right one and the campaign who are paying on a BTC terms usually, are the most successful and a sure profit for you as long as you qualified every week. Well, not as good as before but at least, we can still earn some money here. Investing is the next ideal thing, you can buy good coins to have a peace of mind.

I think making money doing airdos and making more money participating in bounties for me both are good why that is it depends how much crypto we earn will depend on how hard we work to earn crypto,. In my opinion the best and most profitable investment strategy depends on your trading style and preferences. For example, if you are more of a technical trader and you trade with the odds and trend of the market it may be faster.

...and that was the last. ICOs were starting to disappear that year slowly due to how many scams were now popping up. I did not expect people to still milk bounties these days even if those things still happen and not get surprised that they are being scammed by these people.
IEOs, STOs, NFTs, etc. It does not matter, these scums/scams would still be anyhwere.

The bounty program is more profitable now than airdrop but they looks thesame. There had been so many fake project in the market now that are doing airdrop to give interested participants part of their coin for doing nothing. More airdrops do has 90% failure because of lack of transparency. I will prefer bounty because you will have a task to fulfill because you can get the token or coin.

Bounties and airdrops are not the same as before wherein participating is profitable and worth it. But now its not a reliable way anymore to make money for free. I think uniswap airdrop is the last that people made huge profit if you're among of those who earn from it.

Or they can participate to Bitcoin paying signature campaign because its more reliable than joining in bounties without assurance if the rewards has value.

What is a Bitcoin signature campaign? I have a hard time believing that Bounties are no longer profitable because I have been making money every week doing tasks on the CandleLabsdotorg bounty. The bounty tasks are things like, upvote on zerion price tracker or beta test the AMM DEX, things like that. It's not 10k + usd like the Uniswap airdrop, but it's definitely worth the time.

I think he was talking about signature campaigns that pay weekly in BTC. They are usually found in Services section, but often require rank Sr. Member to be able to apply. Campaigns like mine for example. Such signature campaigns are probably the only one that are profitable right now, as regular bounties that pays in altcoins are dead or worthless.

Yes for sure, Education Ecosystem are planning to have on soon. Check out its tweet https://twitter.com/eduecosystem1/status/1546524345689952258?s=20&t=mpoLy8Fqpbl2oeFn3EmtaA

Just take the bounty. Airdrops are useless and most of them are given just for promotional thing. It's like they are trying if it will click to the mass or not. Most of airdrops that I encountered are dust. You cannot even trade them for there is no value and some are not even listed with a good exchange.
Bounties though, when you pick the right one you may find yourself making a lot of money or just less than what you worked for, but mostly they are giving out rewards.
It's not like they exhausted you to advertise them so it's okay.

Bounty programs and airdrops both bring profits to the space but due to recent happenings in the space, airdrop are now consider as scam. Before I was trusting airdrop but when I got metamusk token pieces 240,000,000 which was worth over $300. It was totally a good Profits to start with, I was so eager to withdraw my Profits only did I know that it was unwithdrawable. I started to lose interest in it then I watch my $300 sink down, and I can't withdraw it. Airdrops are mostly scams and are not longer reliable. While for bounty programs, they are good investment in the space and its yields Profits. Perhaps it all depends on the strong community that participate in the bounty campaign.

Participation in the bounty can be profitable only if the payment is made with a coin that is already traded on the exchange. The most preferred coin for payment is bitcoin and ethereum, but this form of payment can only be found in the signature company, which requires a high rank.

Agreed that airdrops and bounties are worthless if the token has no trading pair on an exchange. There are a lot of projects that just want to pay out in worthless tokens for sure. I didn't have that issue with CNDL because it is traded on around 6 exchanges. Many of the airdrops I received where a long time ago on STEX exchange. They gave you airdrops in your wallet that you could trade if you wanted to. Exchange airdrops are a good idea I think.

bounty and airdrop are very effective programs to get crypto for free (no initial deposit required). but it should also be noted that not all bounties and airdrops pay 100%. based on my personal experience, there are several bounties from 2019 which until now have only been tokens that have no value in my wallet. as for the airdrop, I've also followed and it pays even though it's small.

maybe in recent years along with the number of bounties that have not been paid, make some people decide to take a break from bounties and airdrops, including me. What made me come back here and participate in the bounty campaign program is the belief that surely out of the many bounties, it will pay off and that is the best way than doing nothing.

good luck

Most airdrop and bounty programs make you jump through a lot of hoops for very little gain.

Not at all the case with Candle Labs (https://www.candlelabs.org) Beta Tester Program that lets you earn 25,000 CNDL (worth about $20) immediately and every time you refer other beta testers or developers (up to 500K tokens or ~$500)!

They also have a grant program that rewards developers up to 25M CNDL ($20K!!!) if they build a DApp or issue tokens on Candle Chain (an L2 EVM compatible chain similar to Polygon but faster and much cheaper).

I've been participating in bounties and doing airdrops rarely since 2018. Cant say that I am rich. During these years I have learned, that holding coin or token, received from bounty or airdrop is a big no, as with every market mood change, this alts price never recover. What I am trying to say, that bounties and airdrops wont make you rich. If by the moment reward is distributed you altcoin did not make you rich, dont expect to become one in future. With current bounty budgets, chances of becoming rich is close to zero.

To be honest, one can earn a lot through Airdrop Campaign or even Bounty, but it just needs to be a quality option.
In my opinion, it is better to do the bounty program because it gets more results.
I wouldn't choose the untrustworthy option either. With the Airdrop Campaign, you won't be able to do anything like that. Because doing so will only make things more difficult.
I am personally always cautious and that is why I only participate in Campaigns that are absolutely trustworthy and can be relied on to work on.

And what about NFT drops, like the one from MAXX Finance? Has anyone had luck with NFT drops?

I think with NFT it is even worse situation then with bounties or airdrops. When you get altcoins, at least they had sort of a use case in a project, at least they are needed for something. Which gives them some chances to be on demand. With NFTs, they are practically useless. To make them worth something, you need someone that is ready to buy them. Holding them usually gives you nothing. And you cant easily sell them. You can only create a sell order for them, when there are not buy orders, means you will have to wait for a customer.

the best airdrop for now is the one you get through staking or using a platform early before launching their tokens

I see what you are saying but I think you are being a bit myopic. You should be accumulating as much crypto as possible during the bear market, whether you are buying it or participating in airdrops or bounties like the CNDL one. In a bull market you can easily see your investments 10x. What seems like a little right now, a 500 usd bounty reward for example, could easily turn into 5k usd in a bull market. So no, I don't think its a waste of time if you find the right projects. Just take a minute to research before you sign up for anything.

I think these two things are just wasting of time but from bounties you could earn few bucks. But now in most cases those bounties who gives token as payment  which value will be very low. So for now I think it's better to making skill without doing this for few bucks. Yes there was another way that is signature campaign but for this you should be at least full member+ SR member. Here you also need skill for ranked up . At the end if you don't have any choice then you can do bounties & airdrops

When you visit the bounty section recently, you will notice Newbies without even having a cropper membership launching bounty campaigns, all of which are scam projects. Some bounties actually pay well in the past, and many individuals have made a lot of money on airdrops and bounties. This has demonstrated that taking part in bounty campaigns these days is a complete waste of time and effort. However, there are still some trustworthy bounty campaign managers that continue to deliver some genuine work, but the payouts are always small, so taking part in bounty campaigns is a waste of time.

If it doesn't take up too much of your time, I suggest you participate in bounty and airdrops. Some bounties and airdrops make regular payments even though it is a bear market. Of course, there were projects that delayed their payments during this period, but they honestly explained their reasons.

If you only look at here on this forum for sure you will not find any good airdrops running because mostly what devs offer here are scams since they want free advertisement. But if you look more wider and try those testnets where they give tokens in return nor even require you to use Opensea or any other things which you can mostly see them on twitter then maybe you can still say that there are still airdrops which is good to try or have.

Even if the market is good there are still fake projects and there are bounties that will not give you anything, gone are the days when every project you participate in will perform well in the market, I used to participate in so many bounties where the project looks good and promising but end up neglected and scam, bounties, and airdrop now are like a box of chocolates you never know what you're going to get.

I participated a bounty campaign for eight weeks Lo and behold my total reward or earning was less than $20 even after waiting for so long for the token to be listed in an exchange, that is the situation of bounty hunters now uncertainty in the future of the project they are promoting, there are scenario where some of those projects are abandoned after listing thus it's price becomes worthless, I think bounty campaign can't be very rewarding like before, worst of it is airdrops which no values unlike when bitcoin reached ATH in 2017, airdropping is a waste of time and efforts now.

Of course, everyone believes in the ones that pay in BTC or usdt or anything guaranteed a lot more, why would anyone trust the ones that are paying very low, and in tokens that will go down? I rarely ever join one, I think I may never join one again in the future ever again, because there is a very low chance it would ever pay you. This is why the ones in the services section is much better, they pay you in crytpo that you know of, not the ones that they are creating themselves.

There are people saying "500 thousand dollars worth of tokens!!" when in fact they just printed it, so there is really no worth to it, so it’s all made up by them and could be 5 bucks instead.

It's been a while since I've seen a bounty or airdrop campaign that could bring significant profits to hunters. Could you please point me to some bounty and airdrop programs that still pay regularly in this bear market? I am inquisitive and want to know.

It appears that the golden age of bounty and airdrop campaigns has ended with the death of ICO, and the hunters are no longer able to earn a profit from them.

I have asked same examples in this and similar topic and no one, that state bounties and airdrops are still worth participating, game me anything. As a proof, other people mention 2018-2019 bounties and 1inch airdrop. But that is past. Now, no one would give such large amount of money for free or easy tasks.

"Death of ICO" is the best historical point when bounties became no longer profitable. Now, projects dont raise millions, they dont have huge budgets, we dont have frequent random project pump and dumps - no way bounties can bring good money now.

That's certainly true but you need to research the project before you jump in and start working. Metamask for example promised an airdrop and that's a huge legitimate project. Candle Chain is an L1 EVM compatible chain and its also paying out weekly. Be careful though as a lot of people on this board have been burned doing bounties only for the tokens to be worthless or losing time because the founder of a project refuses to pay them. It's a mixed bag but there are some gems out there, like the 1inch drop.

Red or green market, it is always advised to do a research and to be very picky when it comes to joining a bounty because scams don't choose a time/condition. For the airdrops, I think it's okay if you can just randomly join any because they are not that hard to complete and you won't feel bad if ever you won't get paid. Market might be red but there are bounties which pays with stable coins.

If you prefer non stable coins, you must accept that the price of the coin can dump but like what you are doing with btc and other top cryptos, you can also prefer to hodl your bounty rewards for a while till the bull run returns. See if its value would also improve.

Projects will still raise millions of dollars, even hundreds of millions of dollars without going through ICO fundraising, raising capital from small investors. Now the projects are good enough and have unique ideas, they will easily raise capital through venture capital funds, angel investors, sponsored by exchanges...so they don't need bounty and airdrop programs to promote their project. If you notice, the projects that run the bounty campaign are mostly junk projects, imitation projects and nothing special from a large team, idea or investment fund.

Maybe a good strategy then is to sell half and hold half of each bounty you get. If you received 500k CNDL for example, you could sell 4k usd worth and stake the rest and sell at the peak of the next bull run in Q4 or Q1 2023. This way are rewarding yourself for the time you took doing the beta test and you have the potential to earn a lot more.

I agree with you it is better to sell half bounty reword instantly and hold rest half. Because many times pump many coins after selling them.  We only have to regret seeing it then. But not all coins will be like this.  Many bounty coins become scams after being on the market for a while. So after receiving the bounty payment it is better to sell half or 75% of the coins immediately and hold the remaining coins.

I can say the "Bounty Detective" team is the regular paying team right now. Besides, the "Brainboss Bounty Group" team also makes regular payments. I occasionally participated in bounty campaigns for quality projects. Of course, there is a serious decrease in bounty campaigns these days.

I can still recall being one of CBs management back in the days. Not sure about those bounty groups that you are talking about since I do not join those, but CB is really organized when it comes to handling his participants.
It was 777coin campaign back in the days, if you're curious.

Bounty payments are actually given by the project team. But here managers also have some contribution.  As many bounty managers deal with bounty reward escrow. such as Brainboss and Bounty Detective always guaranteed bounty rewords it means they also take escrow. So bounty hunters are more interested in their campaigns

Thanks for your suggestion, I'll look into it. You also researched the bounty managers I mentioned. By the way, testnet and node testnets have been attracting a lot of attention lately. Some node-setups are very easy. You can also review them.

Not anymore if you ask me. Bounties and airdrops are designed in a way that the project would make you work as hard as possible to get big, and then pay you peanuts or even maybe not pay you at all. There isn't a solid logic behind it anymore.

If it is a 100% legit place, you would work hard, and then get paid like 1-2 month down the road after your job is done, and that would be in vesting, so you would get paid in like 6 installments and all would be like 10 bucks at the very best. Why work so hard to get paid 10 bucks a month 2 months later? That is why it makes no sense to me to invest any time into bounties anymore, they are definitely not worth it.

Gone are the days or golden years of bounty hunting which i could say on that 2016-2017 time as far as i remember where bounties could give out possible income of thousands of dollars in a short time but now it cant really be just possible.If we do tend to look at on how many shitty projects we do have in the market plus having those scams and frauds around then its no surprise that investors would really be in big hesitance on supporting projects or funding it thats why the lesser projects do become successful but of course there are some exemptions to that and its up to someone if they are able to bare the risk and odd chance of success
of bounty hunting nowadays but i would honestly say that it isnt really that worth for the time and effort to be put up thats why you should think twice on making considerations.

I agree with you but on the other hand, I found that CNDL coin one that is paying out, so there must be others providing generous rewards too.

The same thing happens to me as well. Holding coins from bounty campaigns is a misconception, most of them will be dumped and they will never be able to recover. 

Nowadays, it is almost time consuming to participate in a bounty campaign, and the reward we receive is not worth the effort we put into it. Gone are the days when bounty or airdrop made us rich.

Do you mean to participate in projects of reputable bounty managers?. Yeah, it's a good idea that participating in campaigns managed by reputable people will somewhat limit scam projects, junk projects. But I would like to know whether those projects are profitable for you and can you sell them immediately for a profit?.

Maybe the only thing I can say is that you can get income bounties and airdrops, but most of them they don't pay rewards even if the task rules are done, moreover, the price is so low in the market that it's almost like you didn't earn anything, and a loss or your effort is wasted and you gave time to campaigning here.

That's why participating in bounty campaigns don't include airdrops first, you need to know how to choose legit projects in the bounty campaign. The question is how to choose? maybe you should base the BM ranks on Sr. member up here on the forum so that you have a chance to be paid by the project you join but this is sometimes case to case scenario, but it is an advantage, especially if there is an intermediary escrow.

There is no point holding tokens you earned from bounties because they will turn useless later, we don't see layer 2 projects using bounty hunters to promote their projects, only play to earn games and metaverse projects use bounty hunters because it's easier to fool people with these use cases, it's always work in progress, beta stage so nothing to show for it.

in the past, there have been enough bounty scams, it's just that in the past there were also very many bounties that actually paid participants. if the question is whether you can still get money from bounties and airdrops, the answer is of course you can. even today there are several bounties that use stable coins and escrow. As for airdrops, it's also possible, it's just that, I think it's very difficult, because it's very rare that you can benefit from airdrops. however, despite the difficulty, or the many rewards, we can still benefit from bounties and airdrops if we continue to do research.

Well, maybe trading is a potential way to make money. however, it is not free, there is always capital used, and the greater the profit you target, the greater the capital and risk you need to prepare.

It all depend upon the Campaign or Airdrop you joined if the project had good partnership and less user you will get the good amount you can also look if the campaign is Escrow or not personally my mindset is to find a campaign with least number of users to get the maximum reward
In Current Market their are almost 70% AIRDROP that are lanch with mindset to get followers and later its called scammed with community or they ask to transfer some funds/connect wallet

And also with BOUNTY CAMPAIGN the projects that's are launching are not quality project expect some most of the campaign are either MEME COIN ,SHIT COIN OR SOME PLAY2EARN OR WALK2EARN project with time we had also seen decrease in the leval of Bounty campaign

If you are thinking of participating in airdrops, you will undoubtedly lose your time in vain, Either you get worthless tokens or a few cents is not enough to buy a cup of coffee, so I advise you not to waste your time and participate in the bounty campaigns in this forum, it is profitable if you participate in One of the bounties is managed by an expert manager such as irfan_pak10 or Hhampuz and the distribution of these bounties must be in escrow, and in the end, you will get valuable coins that you can easily exchange or sell. All you have to do is get a good rank in this forum and have accounts on social media with thousands of real followers.

yes, of course all good bounty programs and airdrops will provide great benefits for each participant. In addition to not having to use capital, the bounty program can also give participants a large prize if the project is successful. but don't expect much if you are one of the bounty participants.

I saw this airdrop on airdrops.io but most airdrops from this website don't pay, it's been over a year already so airdrops are no go area for me, I have quit hunting for airdrops but bounties are still fair enough.

Most airdrop that happens on telegram is scams.  Some even require KYC which I think is not really needed, they just want to farm identities so that they can sell it elsewhere.  I also ignore airdrops but still keen on looking for possible worthy bounty campaigns since bounty campaigns still pay and if lucky we can get a fortune out of it.

There are some bounty managers who are very good at bringing the vehicle but here and there they give the payments successfully and there are some bounty managers who don't want to pay at all.  If the payment is received, it should be done with the manager, then we hope to receive the payment from here

I agree, definitely! Airdrops are a great way to make money, but sadly, we can no longer find them anywhere. It was better back then since airdrops were all over the internet and you could really profit from them if you knew how to manage your tokens.

Simple math. Take any bounty campaign or airdrop today and compare it with bounty or airdrop in 2017-2018. Just go to tokenomics and compare numbers. Current projects raise or sell their altcoin for tens or hundred thousand dollars, and hunters get only a percent of that. Now take a look on any project of 2018 that ran ICO. Millions or tens of millions were raised, almost every third project got listed on an exchange. So what is profitable, lets say a percent from $50k, or a percent from $1kk ? Not hard to calculate the results. And in addition dont forget about growing amount of hunters. Which is btw surprising, because rewards are several times lower.

Bounties and airdrops are less profitable to participate in right now, airdrop is even the worst of all but bounties you can still get a good catch if

1. The project is very good in terms of team and utility.
2. The bounty campaign needs limited participants only.
3. The bounty payment is fully ecsrowed.

Don't rush to join projects if the present ones sucks, there is no point as you are not missing anything in general.

I don't believe you can earn any more money from airdrops these days. It is better to take part in various types of contests or draws, where a smaller number of people win, but the prizes may be of greater value. In this way, I was able to win a few NFTs which I later sold for a nice profit. The days of making thousands of dollars in bounty campaigns are over with the end of the golden age of the ICO. I believe that it is best to participate in campaigns that pay out rewards in cryptocurrencies already on the market, and preferably in stablecoins. You can then calculate in advance how much you will earn and whether it satisfies you.

I think if there is any free income site better than Bounty then let me know.  I think I don't have much experience on whether the bounty pays.  That's why I don't want to do bounty.  But I heard everyone gets a lot of payouts from bounties.  If any other work can be done besides the bounty, it will be balo.  So there is a lot to learn here.

Both bounty program as well as airdrops can give you profit but it is requisite that a person should have proficiency and consciousness that how to partake and how to do work for it. Actually it is confined on the person's mind that in which field he want to become victorious , if he wish to do it with hard work so it can be easy to get profit. But if his mind is not set for success then it will be somewhat strenuous to get comfort. It will necessitates your time and you have to achieved mission so you will be awarded with fruitful outcomes.

In my opinion, the bounty is an opportunity given to all participants, apart from not having to use a large capital, participants only do what is stipulated in the project. I think if being a buoty participant can give us an advantage then take this opportunity. I myself have considered that the bounty exceeds that of other free income sites.

More Bounty programs are currently more profitable than airdrops, however they look pretty much the same. so many fake projects on the market today that provide airdrops to give participants more interest in their coins to do nothing. as I know many airdrops have 95% failure due to lack of transparency in development, but I would prefer bounties because they have tasks or work to complete to get tokens or coins that have good value.

both are the same for me at the moment. it's just that some people find it difficult to have a bitcointalk account and their rank is low so they prefer to follow the airdrop. but if you look at the potential it's the same. even airdrops now often do airdrops based on gatcha who's lucky will get the benefit, this is unfair in my opinion. they only pay 10 people from the community which is so much they get. but that's the airdrop.

I see airdrops that reward early supporters like Uniswap as very successful trials. I think these types of airdrops are point-and-shoot jobs. Instead of useless people who abuse airdrops with bots and multi accounts, people who trust projects and support them early are rewarded. This is definitely a very clever method. I continue to participate in bounty and airdrops whenever possible. I don't care if they are profitable or not. I am in this market. They are also in this market. We find each other somehow. :)

one of the advantages of bounty and airdrops is that they do not use capital to participate in them, it only takes time and thought, it used to be able to generate thousands of dollars but not now, many fraudulent projects created by bounty and airdrops are no longer reliable, but there are still good projects, we can join bounty and airdrop projects, we just have to be able to choose which ones are deceptive and which ones are not.

Previously we were faced with two problems namely, payment and price. but nowadays many bounty projects are using escrow and i think this will be a protection body for us. indeed escrow does not guarantee that our work will generate money because this problem depends on the price at the time of listing on the stock exchange, but at least escrow guarantees that bounty participants get their full rights.

If I can say from my own experience that the most profitable participation is bounty projects. Since if all the conditions of the bounty are met, there is a high probability of receiving an excellent reward. And I have been participating in bounty projects for many years. And with great pleasure I fulfill the conditions and receive my reward. So the most profitable participation is bounty projects. Since airdrops do not interest me. And their participation is a waste of time.

Nowadays many people use alt accounts to earn more from bounties and airdrops which made people who only have one account earn very less compare to 2018 below. I joined a lot of bounties so maybe I can find a new potential altcoin that I will hold for long term, since I can increase my holding from participating in bounties so it's a really good start than throwing money to a new project.

And that is the most strange thing with bounties. Back in 2018, when projects raise millions and distribute huge bounty rewards, it was understandable why people use alts. Now, when you are lucky to get only few dollars from a campaign , but have to do all bounty tasks from all alts, it makes no sense to me why waste so much time on them. I am judging based on a minimum wage in my country, then it is more profitable to work in real life, then do bounty tasks with army of alts.

Sometimes people are supporting and take part in bounties but they score nothing at all because not all bounties are solid, some bounty managers launch bounties to assemble money from people and then end up that bounty, i will suggest that read deeply regarding of bounties details, its background and about the bounty launcher. I have gained income from bounties but lots of them were also scam and in my hand there was nothing at end.

I think There are many other ways to earn crypto, so don't feel like you have to stick with just one. Follow a few that you might work on and choose a clear and analyzed bounty program, following more than one will usually give you better results in the long run and It also fits the usual method used for airdrops but if you want to get crypto as an investor with buy the ICO and then sell the tokens later, the airdrop may not be for you.

After the crash of market bounties and airdrops are mostly not giving good return, most of the bounties and airdrops scam the hunters and some pays just unlisted tokens. The most profitable thing at the moment is the events of big projects, like Binance events, Kucoin Events Bitget Events. Other Projects events that really pays.

Honestly, I don't think any of this two can make you good money these days.
Back in the days, bounty paid good money, some fellas got lucky with some new projects they ran bounty campaign and token later pumped mad, but these days, the participants are way too many, and by the time they distribute reward, you end up with shit.

Both airdrops and bounties are usually carried out within a certain period of time. However, in the airdrop, participants can only participate once. As for the bounty, participants can continue to participate during the bounty campaign, considering the task at hand is also more complicated.
Both can be an option in getting passive income from crypto assets. However, make sure to always be vigilant and do some research on the program before participating, OK? Because there are many Rug Pull scams in the name of airdrops and bounties.

The last time I made satisfying money I got from bounty or airdrops was around 2017. But now it's like you said, can't hope anymore on bounty
or airdrops to make satisfying money. Most bounty or airdrops now pay for trash tokens, which sometimes can't be sold because they haven't been
listed on exchanges, or even the volume is too low to sell. In the end, we will be disappointed because our time is wasted.

So if we want to participate in a bounty or airdrop for now, don't get your hopes up too high. Then when the results are far from our expectations,
it is not too painful. Even bounties handled by trusted bounty managers, does not guarantee we can get a satisfactory payment. So if we really want
to get paid satisfactorily, we can trade or take part in gambling signature campaigns for a fixed fee per week. For now I'm still following bounty
or airdrops, but that's not my main focus, and I don't have high hopes either. Even if I'm lucky to get paid reward tokens that are satisfying,
I will consider it as bonus.

There was a time when bounty programs and air drop programs could earn good income.But currently no such income can be made from these airdrops and bounties. Now full of people scams and project scams.There is no good project and even if there are one or two good projects, there is no large or limited profit in the crowd of thousands of people.

I think current airdrops and bounties are only for those who have tough hearts haha.  It's really difficult to find worthwhile airdrops and bounties nowadays compared to 2017, for example. However, we can always try our luck thou'. in 2021 I still got good amounts from free airdrops and bounties. I've got SFUND and AQUA for airdrops and several bounties like OMNI, MICHI SANDERS, EWT, and many more. If I have to choose, I think bounties are more worth my time, energy, and mind. I believe when bitcoin reaches the new ATH both airdrops and bounties can bring more profits for hunters. For now, just do it for fun, fill your spare time or you can do other things that can give you more money.

a few hundred dollars is currently well worth the bounty reward, although not many projects actually pay off, as many projects don't live up to expectations. therefore we must be good at managing it for the future, which is to set aside a small gift to invest, if we only rely on bounty payments, I don't think it will be enough to make us rich in the current situation. especially for airdrops that feel less worthy to get prizes in fiat conversion. but who knows there will be luck in the future if there is a pump. but I still faithfully support the bounty task

It basically depends on the market conditions. Currently the market is bearish. At this time most of the new projects will be scammed. Investor's confidence is now very low. As a result the projects will now fail to collect their money. For this consequence, most of the current projects will be fail to survive. Very few projects that will try to gain investor confidence. But these are relatively less.

I have been doing bounties for years and I could say that bearish and bullish market dont influence on bounties much. This spring, when Bitcoin was showing his best and all other cryptocurrencies updated their historical maximums, the amount of bounty campaigns was not much different from what we have now. I am joining every bounty that has more or less chances of distribution or listing, and does not much of my free time, and the the amount of rewards are decreasing, no matter what market mood is right now.

It still depends on the bounty. There are bounties which pays in fixed price using alts like eth,bnb, and stable coins while most of them don't because they pay in new tokens and your rewards are calculated depending on the stakes you receive per week. Nowadays sig campaigns are more reliable to the fact that they pay in bitcoins and even though the value of btc had drop a lot, the pay rates are still being adjusted and they make the pay a little bigger.

This is true and this is why once the bounty hunters gets their tokens, they will sell it immediately because they are also scared that their tokens will get dumped later on. This is a headache for the project owners and to those who invest on the project genuinely.

there are not many airdrops that provide high rewards because each airdrop provided only supplies 2% with a very high total of participants, except for the airdrop which has limited the number of participants who follow it. while the bounty has a higher supply reward than the airdrop and fewer bounty participants than the airdrop participant. so I think the bounty is better to get a bigger reward than the airdrop.

"More money". Considering how most of the campaigns were running previously, I would say it's difficult to even gain decent amount of money from campaigns anymore. We're not in 2017-2018 anymore, people lacks of interest into new projects with so many scammers ruining the whole market. It's changed a lot.

There would be another one like Uniswap in the future where they paid big enough on that day. But we don't know what will happen next, maybe we won't see it anymore considering about what I said earlier.

The one problem here is more and more bounty campaigns are not including signature campaign as part of their promotions. It's also pretty rare to see a bounty campaign paying on a fixed dollar value reward in their signature campaign. Bounty campaign is more efficient on social media campaign I guess? or is it the bounty manager choice not to include it?

both are not good in my opinion because I see in the bounty and airdrop now there are a lot of scams and if you really pay the pay is also very small so in my opinion you are better off buying crypto little by little or a lot, because what I experienced in the airdrop and bounty work took a lot of time but the results were not worth the time, that's in my experience, maybe your experience is different but I prefer to buy crypto as usual.

I think it's still profitable. for example you can check AmuNation App – Bounty Campaign by Amulet Protocol. AmuNation App is application for the AmuNation to make it fun and appealing to promote our project while being rewarded with AmuPoints that can be collected and exchanged for eye-watering rewards. Also they has now TestNet

The basic thing that must be understood is that participating is only following, not a benchmark for measurable income.
I understand, so do I. For some reason when I run these 2 types of events I prefer bounties, the reason is that the distribution bounties are more and of course the opportunities can be more guaranteed. While the airdrop system in the lottery makes me uncomfortable and tired of energy. sometimes it doesn't produce money exchange and crypto at least if it's distribution, tired of feeling paid and appreciated. if you are looking for real money you can increase your forum rank and take part in weekly payout events with bitcoin,  Here  (https://bitcointalk.org/ index.php?board=52.0) hopefully can motivate you. Of course if you want to get money faster you can trade scalping or do business in the real world.

Nowadays, participating in bonus campaigns must be called very lucky to be able to receive a reward even if it is only a few dollars. I see most people participate in campaigns, they work really hard but they are not sure what they get is worth it or not. What a waste of our time trying to participate in bounty campaigns. If it were me, I would find a good job outside to have a steady income than sit for hours in front of the computer working and we don't know what we will get. Once we have a source of income, we will have many opportunities to make money in this market, do not blindly waste time participating in today's bounty.

I always participate on bounty than participating in airdrop. I am participating bounty for so long and i know the difference between bounty and airdrop, airdrop is a waste of time while in bounty you can earn a big profit if you are lucky on it, it depends on the outcome of the projects and if you are lucky and the project you promoted become successful  you will surely earn.

It's true that nowadays bounties are also rarely paid satisfactory, most of them only give reward tokens that have not been listed on any
exchanges. There are even tokens that I get from the bounty, been in my metamask wallet for more than 3 years and not listed on any
exchanges yet. As you said, even a bounty managed by a reputable bounty manager does not guarantee satisfying rewards. The conclusion is
that both bounties or airdrops are mostly disappointing, therefore when following the bounty, don't expect too high. So if the payment we get is
not as expected, we will not be too disappointed. I only make bounties and airdrops as side jobs, so if we are lucky we can provide additional income.

both are very profitable if their project is successfully listed on the exchange and pays the participants. if i choose, i'll do both although i'm a little sad about what we're going through right now because airdrops and bounties are a lot of scams.

as if it's just luck for now to find a bounty that can pay off satisfactorily, but whatever happens I'm still living it and looking for luck or getting a little reward. especially in a bearish situation like today it is very difficult to find a bounty that can be paid correctly, and is worth the initial calculation. but indeed there are some bounties that pay weekly or monthly in bitcoin or stable coins, and in my opinion the safest is like that but of course has heavy requirements

if in my opinion it is better to do both, because it will make money from both. and I think airdrops and bounties have different ways of working so we have the opportunity to be able to do both. The airdrop only performs the task once and then waits for payment, while the bounty has to work 3-4 days every week to get stakes until the bounty campaign ends.

I am also kinda agree with that airdrop and bounty hunting is  only waste of time now .  Because the number of scam projects is increasing day by day, moreover, the projects that provide payment are very small amount and many times they pay in tokens which are not in this list of any exchanger.And that's why the result is zero at the end of the day, so I think doing all the other things that will increase the skills means wasting your valuable time.

Trusted managers are not the 100% indicator that you either get paid or get a good payment. Remember that managers still have the choice to stop the campaign once it was brought to light that the project was a scam. Imagine working for 3 months, but then the BM stopped the campaign due to a lot of scam accusation that were brought by the scam busters here. People should still do the usual "DYOR" before hopping in into something regardless of who is in authority of the whole thing.

actually following the airdrop to earn money for free it's fine when free time is wasting time doing airdrop tasks from telegram etc. maybe a lot of people say it's a big mistake, it's just a waste of time when there are so many airdrop scams right now. but for me if it's just a waste of free time when after work in the real world or on vacation it won't be a problem as long as it doesn't harm other people.
but keep in mind that when you have followed the airdrop and some tokens can be sold, it is better to sell and use it to invest in some of the top coins in CMC, for example bitcoin. so that when you make money from free airdrops you will not waste time and produce good assets in the future when bitcoin reaches the highest price you get more profits in the future.

even with the bounty with a trusted manager that paying using crypto is not 100% profitable.
Because i have joined a few bounties from a trusted manager here but at the end of bounties it's just worth a few cent

It is the reality that even with some good manager, they are also not sure if the project will be profitable and successful.
The likely of being abandoned is there and it's like just going to be forgotten by time whenever the participants asks when it will be listed on an exchange and what will be the value of it once being launched in the market.
That's the fact that many are aware of these days, and that's why even many from before have been profitable, it is unsure these days.

only in bounty around 2017~2018 that even without a trusted manager a bounty still pays with a huge amount.
at that time i join a bounty and when it ended i can get around 0.1~1 BTC from doing it, nowadays even 0.01 BTC is still hard to get from bounties.

Well, 0.01 btc today is around $190-$200 and that's quite a lot for a bounty and airdrop. It's really difficult to get onto those and sometimes even paying for less is questionable from those projects.
It's true that way back then, I've seen too many bounties and heard a lot of great stories on how they've made a lot of money from those airdrops and bounties that they've participated. Well, it's gone for too long and unlikely to get back on that track.

Therefore, if from the beginning we have realized that following the bounty does not provide satisfactory pay, so don't make bounties as our main income,
just think of bounties as a side job. So we will not be stressed if it turns out that in the end we get paid from the bounty in the form of reward tokens
whose value is very low, or even those reward tokens have not been listed on the exchanges. After all, from the start, there was never a bounty manager
who promised that the bounty they handled would give a satisfactory payout. So the bounty manager's job is only to ensure that the reward tokens
are received by all bounty participants who have done their job well. Especially in a bear market situation like now, it is very difficult to find a bounty that
gives good pay. So actually we really don't have high hopes for the bounty if we don't want to experience disappointment.

Bounties and airdrops have given very good profits last 3-4 years ago . In a bull market, that reward was very large. But at present the profit from bounties and airdrops is not available due to bearish market. And if found, it is very less amount and some times hunters can not get the withdraw charge by the bounty. Normally that opportunity may not come again like before. Where the hunters became millionaires by participating several bounties.

Do not take bounties as a job, all you need to do is find the most trusted bounty managers and follow them closely for any bounty release, most projects on this forum right now are not good, they are either scam projects or bad projects will almost no volume on exchange.

nha, bounty seem dead they are just keep promoting junk coin, the only good one is synature campaign and the one who paid with btc

It's true that the current Bounty campaign, is really dead, many campaign managers are continuously promoting bad projects, in building Crypto growth, what you say about the signature campaign is a shortcut to follow it, in order to get paid even if it does get paid Bitcoin, unfortunately the manager asks all participants to get Merit, in order to get paid for what they do, that's a requirement that I think is very difficult to do, because to get merit it is very difficult if done, by participants who do not have more knowledge in the field of posting on some high quality threads...

I did as you suggested, all followed because the more bounties / airdrops that followed 100:2 there would definitely be legit ones, although sometimes there are many scams but the name is an attempt to find additional finance

The payments of the bounties have only dropped this last couple of years so I doubt that they will get increased again when we have another bull market. The main problem with bounties is, if you get paid, most of the times you still only get coins that can't be traded on any legit exchange so they are still useless even if it is a high amount.

what are you talking about dude? did you using MTL or something? i can't belive someone with rank senior member write something like that

they are droped drasticly because the bounty hunter it self keep grow like crazy, lets say in 2015 to 2017 it's seem bounty hunter in campaign isn't even close to 1000 or 1500 participant, now lets see in every campaign there is always newbie who use multiple account and doing spam like a bot, they don't even have any activities outside bounty board.

The market is saturated which does simply imply or means that getting funding or sale wont really be that much effective since it would really be divided into various projects which would really be ending
up on having not able to reach out their soft-cap which does simply means that it had failed.The result? Bounty hunters wont be getting paid.So it would be basically means that
people wont really be paid and just simply wasted up their time and effort on trying out to market on the said project.You cant really just accept easily that
you had just really wasted your time for that shit project.

Sometimes, out of old habit, I also do bounties from trusted managers and airdrops from them or well-known companies. Testnets, as I understand it, also cannot give 100% earnings. There is also a project ambassador or project moderator program, mainly in discord, but this is a long process and payment can be good, but only on condition that the project goes to the masses.

Once, both were ways of making decent amount of money but this day, none of them are useful to anyone. Uniswap token was an exception, otherwise most of airdrop now select winner who can reference much to engage with that particular project! airdrops are kind of waste of time. After bear market, there's no good bounty for making money, large number of projects are scam but you can join with some exchange listed or usdt payment bounty which are so rare

each developer compete each other to get attention from investors ,so only the best one Will survive in market. And its become our task by spreading and shill their market material to all investors. As we know maybe our projects we followed was not good, so we should accept any condition that mau happen with our projects.

You're right, but just for the bounty program on this forum, we haven't seen any more potential projects lately. For the airdrop program itself, I still see many people who make money from this, several times I have had discussions with them regarding the airdrop program. Know what they say?. They say that the airdrop program is a program with great potential and of course very easy to do, besides that they also have to use many accounts to participate, for example 100 - 1000 accounts, imagine how much they can earn if each account has a minimum prize of $ 0.5 :D

conditions must have been different when the ICO hype used to be. Many of the bounty campaigns pay with tokens that are not registered yet, but they are quite high in value. now the situation is different. still equally crowded with participants. but looking at the value of the tokens is sometimes very bad. even before bids were traded many projects were dead.
If you see the enthusiasm of the participants, I don't think anything has changed. still crowded. but if you look at the results, it seems that a lot has changed. bounty and airdrop, both do not make more money.

maybe in this moment we should join on several bounties campaign, bottom was almost in and maybe this campaign could rise in the next cycle. Alot projects failed in this bearish trend and most of them become shitcoin. But as hunter we must optimism opportunity will come again as previous history in bounty campaign world.

Basically that's not a difficult thing. The problem is if you are joining bounty that managed by inconsistence manager. There are some managers didn't even care with the reward. that will make the hunters need to pay more for that. I meant if you have reputable manager and why shall you pick a project that launched by untrusted manager? that proves that if that's showing how deep your research

Still believing with bounties campaign and airdrop project because have another surprise later when listing on the market with higher price, still remember yesterdays with bounty project coin listing on LBANK market, unbelievable almost waiting 3 years from coin received and right now have fantastic values, I think not way instant to earn much profit by joining with bounty and airdrop project, but keep believing you have chance to earn much profit and money by joining many kinds of bounty or airdrop, maybe have one or two kinds of bounties or airdrop have higher price later. Don't worry if can't earn profit as soon possible exactly with bounty campaign not listing yet right now after coins reward distributing, but keep hold and waiting will listed on another days and you have great chance to earn profit.

Participating in any bounty programs and airfrop nowadays are need do investigate first before joining because as we all know that there are many scam sites that offer a good profit in the end of the project but in the end they will live and not reply or have an announcement from the producer.  But if we participated in a legit project the without a doubt we can get a good profit as they said and also there's a chance that the price of the tokens getting higher.

Entrepreneurs lose interest in their projects when the market is bearish. As a result, new projects naturally come relatively less during this period. But scammers try to cheat some investors in this bearish time. They launch new project and then scam it. Moreover, currently some projects ask to connect wallets and thereby steal funds from investors' wallets. So it is more important to be careful with new projects.

As it is now in the cryptocurrency market, no money can be made even with bounties and airdrops.It can be seen that after doing hundreds of bounties, two to one out of them may be successful and may not be.

Naturally when market going back bullish I believe many kinds of new project have good progress and give impact for bounties or airdrop project, running market price still not stable and bitcoin keep going down I think difficult how to make new project get goal achievement by sold out on pre sale or IEO sale. Not easy how to make investor believing with project success later depending bitcoin price still drop and loss opportunity to earn profit on several IEO sale. But sure if later bitcoin back bullish and have many new project launching success then all bounties and airdrop project can enjoy the sweet moment last several years ago where all bounties get higher reward.

Right, managers can't be a guarantor in the bounty campaigns. Because i have been worked in the few campaigns in this year where bounty manager was highly reputed but i didn’t get any payment either project was SCAM or tokens was worthless in the market. If project owners have bad intension, they will go to SCAM then managers can't do nothing.

Bounties can be more profitable but are higher risk, I agree. MAXX finance has an airdrop for HEX and MATIC holders in about a week from now so you may want to look out for that one.

Choosing to participate in bounty campaigns as well as choosing a new project to invest in, there will always be a risk in it. Bounty managers only take on the marketing role for the project and they are not part of the project so cannot guarantee the value of the project. When you participate in reputation manager or escrow, you will definitely get rewards if you meet the requirements of the campaign but whether that token has any value or not depends on your ability to research and choose a project.

You have been here for 4 years and still asking this kind of newbie question ?  as you are from 2018 account I assume that this is just a way of you to promote that kind of bounty/project? but anyway what  ever path you wanted to pursue make sure that you have a actual funds to invest and not just by joining or participating bounties because though this can be considered as work Online yet the assurance of being paid is really tin so best to have capital to trade and invest.

Is what I read right? you earned more from airdrops via Uniswap. Can you please send this link here in case there are any more airdrops? Because most of the airdrops that I participated in don't really pay or if someone does pay it has no value in the market or if it does have value, its value hardly reaches 0.1$ each. That's why other members here say it's a waste of time to join such airdrops.

As for the bounty campaign, there is a weekly bounty here in this forum where the participants will be paid via Bitcoin according to the rank they have. And there is also an Altcoins bounty where it is tentative whether you will be paid or not or you will wait a few months before paying the participants, then sometimes it will be another year before the rewards are given or just buried in oblivion like that. So it depends on you how or what you choose.

i don't thing so, they are equal wasting time but imo airdrop better nowday because they are not wasting time to long, imagine you doing bounty like 4 month and then geting pay with crap junk coin, the doiferent is tere so many airdrop decent recenly especially airdrop based in testnet and such

As far as I know there is no investment in the bounty.  There is an opportunity to earn from the bounty without investing. Here you have to do some work every day and at the end of every week it has to be fun. So I think that if you work in the bounty, I don't know what kind of loss there will be. If you invest, you will lose here.  There is an opportunity to earn from investment.

Escrow bounty is just a guarantee that the token will be paid out by the bounty manager but not necessarily the token will be of value, therefore we must join the bounty escrowed and make sure the token has been traded on DEX or CEX with high trading volume.

I agree, until now the token I received from bounties that have an escrow ended up being worthless. It's really hard to find a good project to join on the bounty now since there are many people joining too and the payment is not as big as in the past year. 

you are right, but the escrowed bounty already obviuslly will be ocupied with bounty spammer and bot accound and they are gonna full like 5 minute after they realesed

I think the most influential thing about bounty is the number of projects that fail to reach the target, if bounty can reach hardcap it will certainly be easy to get payments. And if we pay attention that Bounty Managers are now doing the best.

It was till the start of bear attack on 2017. Before that i also used to join airdrop programs and i received decent amount of money from random projects but after that, maybe It's my bad that i haven’t found any potential airdrops.  

thats huge! Don't know how they manage such number of account but if they can do, then that's really interesting. But most of airdrops, pay with their token which are never listed on any exchange! So $0.5 per account trick won't work but if some project listed on exchange then of course they'll earn a lot

Bounties would be better than airdrops, in my opinion. Cause i noticed almost all bounties projects have their own milestone to archive and they work for it. Moreover they get listed on exchanges more than airdrop projects where airdrops tokens listing so rarely nowadays. But if you can join them during the right opportunity come then thus way, both method can be helpful and profitable for participates.

Bounty and Airdrop are where you don't need to invest any money. You have to work hard there and if you work hard you can profit from it.Now is the best time to be in a bounty campaign. Any project during this period is more likely to become a scam as the market is bad. Besides, airdrop is not very useful at present.But the most profit can be gained from the bounty campaign.

I have made more money from airdrop than bounty no doubt, my biggest hit was Uniswap airdrop was just exploring Defi trades and got scammed with many projects during the presales days of Uniswap but Uniswap eventually smiled on me, it was a moment I'll live to tell. 1inch gave me some tokens for some of my activities.

alot bounties campaign also be shit too ,not all milestone that planned by Dev team running well , even none of it well done. Airdrop have good value too ,especially on retroactive airdrop which be really user on defi platform. Both of them worthed as long as we find correct projects. Airdrop program more variouses,sonwe could which one of them.

Actually, bounties and airdrops have the same way of analysis to review whether or not they are eligible to join, but because bounties have limited participants and different allocations for each stage of the campaign, the bounty income is higher than airdrops. After the ICO era ended, many bounty scams have increased until now, so you have to be selective in choosing to join the bounty and regularly review every update of information to make sure the tokens listed on the exchange have high prices and trading volumes.

In my experience, in bear market there is no profitable to join bounty program and airdrop. Recently I joined many bounties and also I get good profit from previous bounties. Hopefully, when market will be stable then more bounty will be bring and give us good profit.

Can you name some of your previous bounty program that you participated? I don't have an idea what bounty projects did bounty hunters entered that made them some profits. I know there are some because the participants of these bounty programs today are still too many, It means that it is still profitable despite the current market situation. I've been into bounty campaign before but the most profitable year for me on bounty is on 2016-2017 where most of the projects are going to the moon.

I think both of them can provide free coins in the short and medium term. but both have different working methods and both have different results as well. but in my opinion the bounty campaign is better than airdrops because the bounty campaign has paid more to each participant while the airdrop only gives a few dollars even though there are those who pay more than the bounty campaign but it is very difficult to find its. so the bounty campaign is more profitable than airdrops.

Neither is profitable that much again and you just need luck to benefits from them. You can participate in as much airdrop as you want or enroll in as many bounties and still not get profitable because the industry has grown passed those days of free money. Now to make money here, you need some money or experience. Experience in the sense that you can trade and do those trade on some of the new exchange coming out and hoping they carryout some airdrop in the future for early adopter just as uniswap and their like did in previous years.
Money in the sense that you can buy as many tokens your money can fetch in anticipation of an airdrop for holding a particular tokens or NFT when there's rumours of an airdrop coming in the future.

you are right, by following both , we do not know the future of the coins we will get either one day it can reach hundreds of $ or just as decoration in our wallets

is it luck? if that's what you do, you're just wasting your precious time.
put yourself on the right project, not the one that will bring you luck.
That's what happened today. follow more bounty projects without knowing whether they will be paid or not.
why not train ourselves to be able to analyze projects that are worthy of us to follow and which we should ignore? it will take longer than writing a POA. but it will be more efficient than working on a campaign with list origins.

bounties and airdrop will have good value in bullish trend, investors feel interested and happy to spend their money in market. Alot projects Will launched and posibility to earn money bigger. Actually alot good airdrop in market , we just no consistent while join on it.maybe we Will 1 projects from 20 projects but it really worthed.

Joined bounties campaign on bear market reward less from expectation, but moving to bounties with stable payment or joining signature service bounties is bet option with stable reward accepted than several bounty using altcoin payment and not support when bull market because price going drop. Airdrop right now not allowed reward for all participants, several airdrop have limited with winner list and late for joining just waste time and opportunity only for downline get bigger winning chance. Stop awhile with joining airdrop and I try with bounties have payment with stable coins.

Yeah, i agree if your participated campaign is escrowed by bounty manager then definitely you will get payment end of the campaign it’s guaranteed but there are any guarantee you can sell your tokens or tokens will not be worthless? So i think escrow isn’t also 100% guaranteed to get your Rewards.
