Do you research the company before participating in a bounty?

[Reatim]

Of course I do because you have to take a look if this ICO are going to pay you at the end. And you as a participant has the responsibility not to be scam because its really hard work to participate because sometimes it will took you 4-8 weeks of effort and you don't want all your effort just go in drain because the ICO you joined didn't pay at the end. Used your common sense and better judgement here and not just join any ICO that has recently open.

First, I want to ask you something. Why should we do research before joining bounty? Is not bounty given for free and we can get the money. If a bounty looks does not pay, we can immediately look for another bounty.

In fact it is very easy to know which bounty is legit and fake. We just look at the reputation of someone who created a thread. We can also see how the testimony of people who follow the bounty. Whether they are paid or not. I personally never questioned it, I just follow bounty and I always get paid. If it turns out I really can not get paid, and bounty that I follow is a scam .. I will immediately replace and look for another bounty. No grudge or sadness.

Just wondering if this is something everyone does, and what questions you need answered before you are comfortable participating (and actively promoting) an ICO?

if you dont want to waste time with a bad project then i advise you always do this. Now many bounties campaign (twitter, signature..) which you join it will pay for participate by bitcoin weekly but a lot of member still join to bounties campaign which will pay by token because they expected to get bigger profit when they join to a new project
You should read whitepaper of project which you want to participating, research dev team, product, token before participating any project

[denny27]

I think surely is it, from so many people will certainly doing that first including me, of course it's very important and can be used as a consideration to ensure in getting definite profit opportunity from that bounty and to avoid a scam that until now still many peoples who doing scams. And It's very important for us to be more careful of anything we decide, so that not a regret at the end.

of course, you should always check and I think it is always based on experience.
you should find out every project you want to follow in investing or following a signature campaign.

of course I searched for information about the project before joining their bounty, because I did not want my hard work to be in vain, and the failed project could be because of two things, a scam project and a project that did not reach softcap

[BTCMILLIONAIRE]

Yes, because I don't want to support any shady people by doing tasks for them. I don't particularly need any bounties, but I do like supporting projects that I really believe in that have a great idea and a hard working, serious and passionate team.

1 - You will be wasting your time and energy and wont be getting paid
2 - You will be wasting your months in Signature campaign which can only be used for one project at a time
3 - If project you support is scam then you are creating awarness about something which can cheat people of their money. So better confirm before helping those thugs!
4 - Your confidence and motivation to participate in any campaign will do down everytime you get cheated!

as an investor in ico projects, i usually do my own reseach before investing, i check every detail about the project, website, whitepaper, developed team and their advisors, after that i check if that ico can be apply in real life or not, if not, they are usually scam, then i search for reviews from reviewers whether they have good impression or not. from that i wil decide whether to invest or not.

Be careful with reviewers. A lot of them are bought.

of course, money is included here so i dont want to take risk on untrusted ico. I do research on my own or ask a reliable friend if it's good to participate to. I dont not want my efforts to be useless in a ico that is a scam.

[A L I E N]

Of course, I do the full research of the ICO. I pay attention at the time when the project starts and when it ends, the Whitepaper must exist (if ICO does not have it, this is a sign of a scam). 

You must also check the project team (Google these people to do it).

One of the essential parts of a LEGIT ICO is its whitepaper. By just reading the whitepaper, you can get and understand all the details about the project. And the more complete the whitepaper of an ICO is, the higher the chance that the project developers are faithful about running the project.

You should see the following in an ICO's whitepaper:

• Problem
• Solution & Product
• Token Implementation (how the token works with the product, economics and technical)
• Team
• Token Deployment & Plan

For me, the first thing that I look for in an ICO's whitepaper is the PROBLEM and SOLUTION together with the PRODUCT/TOKEN/COIN. A project that meets the problems in the real world are most likely the ones that will succeed in the future since most people will likely support those projects that can really help them. The solution should also be feasible and clear. The token are usually called the solutions, but how it will be implemented in the future is what makes the difference.

You should also be able to see in the whitepaper the TEAM. This gives more credibility to the project and it shows that the developers are ready to take the responsibility on what might happen to their project and the clients in the future.

Token deployment is more on the details about the ICO, pre-sale, and anything about the timeline of the project's schedules.

[Evangeline2]

Of course, before the bounty, I had a survey on the ico project. If I did not read the ico project carefully, would it not mean that I paid no attention to the job if I received a month worthless coins.

[carlisle1]

I definitely do it. I also recommend that you study each project in the generosity of which you participate. It's your time. If the project seems unreliable to you, do not waste time on it, there are now thousands of other offers on the market. This is especially true for campaigns with reports.

Thanks for sharing. How do you evaluate if a project is "reliable" to you?

to evaluate how reliable the project is,first CHECK EVERY INDIVIDUAL that involve in ico from their social media accounts and any back grounds you can find if they are really existing and not a dummy account.second check if the token or coins that involve is enough and fair to run the project.from there you can have a idea on how truth every ico is

This is my first but going forward yes, I joined mine as it was one of the only offering newbies to participate at the time. I will always look to see how the rewards are split as well as grasping how well the idea is supported by the community.

[feelideb]

Definitely or else you may be left with worthless token. The project that offer any bounty must be look in very closely so that in the end they will be able to carry out their plans and not abandon their project.

I have never studied atau research a company when issuing an ICO but I ask for a recommendation to a senior or look at this forum

[Acguy]

Of course and that's what everyone should be doing.
