Bounty Rewards: Sell immediately or HODL?

[manuelgar]

If you strongly believe that is a really good project, you should hold.. Otherwise, sell it. Or.. half sold, the rest is HODL.

[Senkuli]

I have several times following the bounty program in this forum and get some coins / tokens that are distributed as my reward.
Usually before I do the bounty program I do research and analysis about the coins / tokens, whether it has a high value, and will grow in the future according to its roadmap.
If the coin / token has a high value and will continue to grow in the future I will still hold it and sell at the right time,and if the coin / token is less good and less enthused by the investors then I will immediately sell it after the distribution.

I want to add that some people doing bounties are jobless so they don't have many options, they're almost bound to sell

[Omnia Vanitas]

Well, if you are jobless and this is your "job"... well, I can understand, but it's better to learn to trade than to lose your time making tons of useless posts for a little reward.
Bounty reward are a base for investment, not for a life.

Sometimes rewards can be big. And while keep posting people are also be aware of what's going on around this cryptosphere.

When I do bounties, just to avoid to pay the token or coin. 70% of the time I keep them. the rest I am trying to get x4 x5.

I've been doing bounty campaigns only since December 2017.  Not long, in the scheme of things.  But one thing that truly surprised me during the last couple of months is the number of bounty hunters who look to sell their tokens ASAP.  At first, I didn't understand why, but I think I'm beginning to.

For me, I'm doing these bounty campaigns for a bit of fun and to give my mind a bit work to do, creatively speaking.  So my mindset for any bounty tokens is just to HODL and allow the devs to implement their roadmap and take the project through to completion.  I think this will give the best realisation of value on the tokens.  Sure, some may fail and they will likely end up worthless, but since I only invested time, not money, into receiving them, I'm not really worried.

So with that mindset, I struggled to understand why so many people were eager to offload their bounties at the earliest opportunity.

But over the weekend, I sat down and did some calculations on the accumulated bounty rewards I'm expecting to receive.  Each bounty by itself was a modest return, but when combined in totality, it was a sizeable amount.  And that's when it struck me...

Lots of people who live in less fortunate parts of the world, particularly in areas with high unemployment, probably NEED to sell their bounty rewards to put food on the table and pay their bills.

But I really don't know if my assumptions are correct.  So, my question to you is...

Do you sell your Bounty Rewards straight away or HODL?  Any insight into your reasons would be appreciated.

Yes your opinion is completely correct, because some bounty program participants that I know have a difficult economic level, so it can be ascertained after they get paid from bounty surely they sell the coins they get. That is a fairness because they are in dire need of money, but if you have earned money that is better enough to HODL the coins we get from the bounty. Currently I only HODL coins that I get from bounty pay, but if I need more money then I will sell.

my advice is to sell half and hold the other half. chances are that the airdrop token price will rise, but it will take time. soo dont sell it too fast. hold it as long as you can. I totaly agree with the idea that some of the bounty hunters are selling it to put food on the table.

[george888055]

For Erc20 tokens selling immediately bounty reward is a good moves. Maybe I will have regret later if the value is rising after I sold them. But 80 percent of ICO ends lower than they started.

[AiwonOleh]

There are several options for how to dispose of these coins, 1 immediately to sell and to get profit 2 is to understand the project and if it is good to keep the coin up to its growth, 3 just let it lie on the wallet and after half a year to look at what it will lead to

My strategy is to sell half after a significant increase in order to fix income. The remaining half I'm ready to keep until the very end or until the moment when I see a super promising ICO.

I usually don't want to sell the bounty rewards immediately, i keep it for a long term. Usually after the reward distribution there are immediately sales and the price drops considerably. At this stage, those who sell token think they are very lucky but when the price rises and the token becomes very valuable they have a great regret.

[Rooster101]

Many tokens loses their value during the first day of listing in the exchange. It usually happen when bounty hunters, after obtaining their tokens, they start selling once their tokens is listed in the exchange. If the token have potential for growth in the future,I'd rather hold it and wait for its price to grow before selling. Selling a token at low rate will cause the value to go down especially when the sellers are majority and it will take a long time before it recovers.

[luongdk]

I prefer to use diversification after distribution. 50% - sell, 40% - sell and keep in dollars, or invest after exchanging if the course is profitable in main coins, like BTC, NEO, and 10% hold until best times. But you would never now, which will rise and which will fall, it's better to get some profit additionally from 10% tokens you were holding, that will cover your shitcoins may be, then hold everything and slowly understand that all your coins in shit and you missed the opportunity to sell them in start of exchanging.

In my own insights, If it were me I would Hodl my Bounty rewards since it can still potentially grow after its launch and wait for it to reach its full potential in its value. And based on what you have realized about the people who are less fortunate, I suggest they hodl just for a little while, maybe trade a small portion of the Reward they earned to provide for their family, but it is much better if they can get a higher value of Coins into their accounts. So I recommend them to hang on and hodl the Coins until it has reached its full potential, or at least increased drastically in value.

[BitcoinNational]

It depends on the bounty campaigns. There are some that I think could really increase. In this case, I usually keep the total reward. But others, well I am not really sure that the price will be much higher a day, in this case , I prefer sell and buy other altcoins

if mine , when i received bounty token , i feel , i sucessful supported their project by joining their bounty program.
but , when bounty participants receive their bounty reward , their usually sell the token and make the token dump to low price , can recovered but need time.
i better hold for long term for support their project and reach more earning from bounty , trust the project and the price will increase in future.
but if i need money , maybe i will sell my token , not all , maybe 1/4 of my token total.
thats just my opinion.
cmiiw.

I really hate it when they just postpone the ICO but tell you to keep on yoursignature, like with goNetwork. You are completely loss as wether to continue or not with them.

it's better to hold a token from bounty rewards, because its price will increase as well because my friends are doing so they earn more than double the bounty rewards and sometimes I've tried this strategy and I've proven that I grew up in the bounty because my token price increased

[Kamelia]

If it's a coin that isn't talked about, I will sell it right away after it pumped 2x-5x from its starting price. only few coins are worth holding like BaR, UTK and aDB and it's a nice amount that you've received from those bounties.
