WHY WE BOUNTY HUNTERS HAVE SUCH A BAD REPUTATION

[zeze18]

It's such a shame that although Bounty Hunters do provide value as a community we are really beginning to get a bad name in this Industry. Primarily for two reasons.

1. We dump the tokens we get as soon as they get listed on exchanges. For example, MONEYTOKEN LAUNCHED today on exchanges and it was dumped hardcore, of course,  who else other than BOUNTY HUNTERS AND AIRDROP PEEPS. My Hubby also made two videos but he said no way in hell is he literally giving away the coin way below ICO price. We live in Europe as well, so we don't have the cheap living costs many bounty hunters enjoy who live in Asia and Africa. I know we all have to survive, but we are looking more like beggars now in the crypto community with no self-worth. Maybe alot of bounty hunters don't value their time or themselves but come on, way below ICO price you go and dump the tokens, have people no sense?

2. 2nd point is the rampant stealing and cheating. EVERY DAY we are finding idiots trying to claim bounty stakes by impersonating us and stealing our videos or blog reviews. No wonder now so many ICOS are requesting us to do KYC, we are not to be even trusted to do a decent job.

I really think the bounty industry as to be cleaned up and I would prefer it if bounty tokens were like locked up for a few months before we could all mass dump for so cheap and then Investors getting so angry and pissed off at us. I know everyone in crypto is selfish and for himself only but come on being too selfish is actually shooting yourselves and all of us in the foot. We will never get lambos and moons at this rate lol.

That's a real fact that bounty hunter (not all of them) are always dumping coins right after it enters the market.
But once again, the success of the project, it probably helped by the bounty hunters and the project team must know that

I disagree with your opinion because you cannot accuse some people of doing anything, let alone carry the names Asia and Africa because not all prize hunters from that country do the things you mention, and do you know that I often participate in ICO purchases Even though I am currently a prize hunter, and I always hold the tokens I received until I reached the price above the ICO because I know tokens are very valuable assets and certainly will have good value if the company continues to develop.

So don't be wrong with some people so we blame everyone in it because there are still many honest people.

Well, every bad move usually makes those who are still in need of the service to curb those negativeness surrounding bounty. Whether we like it or not, we will always get to see things like this unless we want to start deceiving ourselves.

Humans cannot be the same, as some are trying to make a living investing in the real world, we tend to see hackers trying to steal from them and the same thing happens in the bounty world, where some have just been cursed with the cheating habit that they just think that is the best way to get themselves rich overnight. Apparently, since a solution has been found to most of the problems, I really do not see it as a major challenge for the honest bounty hunters.

That's truly said mate but those who contribute to such bad reputation are the scammers and I think whatever people state about the bounty hunter like us is applicable to those scammers and not us. So we should keep out prestige of hunting to the top quality only. We are the soul point for the ICO publicity and I believe without us these ICO will never ever get their name published within the community and thus their marketing would be vain. I guess there is no point in spoiling the hunting concept just because of few idiots. ;-)

many bounty hunters dump but not all sell their tokens. bounty hunters have the right to sell their tokens. if they don't want this to happen then they should not do bounty campaigns. but bounty campaigns have a great impact to ICOs because they need it to advertise their ICO. if investor trust the project they should not worry about the price because it will eventually rise.

As bounty hunters, we need also to hold our coins in order to help the community of the project that you've promoted during the campaign. Bad reputations isn't an accurate term for the hunters, but for those greedy person who dumped their asset at huge amount I guess it isn't right for me. That doesn't mean we're going to blame those who ran bounty campaigns but what's going on here was the people isn't learning to control emotions, all they wanted is an easy money. Motivations of saving cryptocurrency is the best options to do to avoid such bad reputations, and prove that hunters have been educated to hold their coins.

I think the price of the ICO will fall below the issue price after listing, which is not what the bounty hunter can do. Perhaps the hunter's sell-off will be one of the reasons, but it will not cause very bad effects. If such a thing happens, it can only prove the weakness of the project.

We reduce the cost of tokens when they enter the exchange, because we are paid a salary in tokens. If the salary were paid in a crypto currency, this would not happen.

Indeed, the bounty hunters must be cream of the crop in the sense that they have a lot of patience and quality of posting and doing works from the campaigns at it finest. As time passes by the number of bounty hunters rises and rises, scams,stealing etc. also rises because of the people who loved to fool others. Maybe there must be right time to clean and choose the proper bounty hunters so that there is no commotion or dilemma will happened anymore.

I am pretty new to thing bounty hunting thing and the only way I came to know about bounties is by reading this forum.
I am pretty sure what you are saying is entirely true apart from the fact that you are being regionalist towards people in Asia or Africa or whatsoever, no one gives you any right to justify this comment. PS: I am neither from Asia nor from Africa but the way you are putting it does not sound correct.

Personally, for me taking part in a bounty is equivalent to participating in there ICO, If I am not investing my money, I am instead investing my time and time is money my friend, there is no way I will think of dumping a token just because I got it for free *technically*. I value my time as much I value my money.

Unfortunately you are right, too often hunters sell their coins too cheap and this leads to price decline . But it is a good opportunity for investors to buy at a low price, below the ico price. You can not scold the hunters that they throw off coins , they want to get their income from the work done . They make advertising project, and without them it would be impossible

[judeafante]

There are really some people that are stealing works from original workers, this is the reason why I only participate on the bounty that requires you to authenticate your entry by posting it in their bounty thread, bounty manager should set up a guide that they can trace the real owners of the submissions like what btcltcdigger team are doing.
