ICOs bounties suck...do not believe them

[hermae]

In my opinion, not all ICOs are bad, unless they are scam from the very beginning, but  we dont even know if the ICO is scam or not, only them knows about it. And besides, there are many ICOs to choose from. No ICO ever forced someone to join or promote their ICOs. It is us who chose to participate. If we get paid or scammed at the end of the ICO, it is because we freely chose them.

[ThePromise]

I run a media company, and deal with a lot of ICOs. What I noticed was that all these ICOs want top-notch articles & videos about them but they insist on paying in their token or want it for free. They think they are doing a service by giving bounties. What they don't realize is that their token is useless most of the time. Most of the bounties done by ICOs are bad.

Like:

1) Write 500-1000 words article on us for 300 of my useless tokens (which won't be coming on an exchange and will be used only on our platfrom. And you won't get free service but 25% discount )
2) Or make a 5 min video for us and post it on your YouTube. You need to have 5000+ subscribers and praise us to get our useless tokens.

I am not making fun of any ICO, just pointing a fact out on how these tokens are just polluting the market.

If you are an ICO or running an ICO, please pay the right price in a currency that works (Eth, BTC, Euro etc). Your tokens are useless for agencies. They take out their time and resources to make a good campaign for you.

Secondly, if your ICO does not have money..it should be red flagged for a potential scam.

What are your thoughts? Are bounties good or bad?

actually, not all ico are legit and going to become successful when its done, most of the projects like that is scam, and their token will be shitcoin. you will encounter a lot of projects like that, so you must know the things you need to find in an ico before spending your time with it.

That's the problem nowadays, there are people who take advantage of the hype brought by ICO's. With these, only few ICO's are real ICO's.
So, before participating an ICO's you need to perform research before joining for you not to waste time on fake ICO's.

[cryptoskycap]

There are many ICOs that pay Bitcoins or Ethereum and can be found here in this forum. However, the Bounty market is arranged in such a way that we only get tokens. Therefore, we need to be careful about choosing a good bounty campaign for us to do.

[humber1]

I also think that ico really has a lot of fraud. They just pursue their profits. They don't consider our feelings at all. Now the market has become very bad. We should choose the bounty activities more carefully.

[yayat]

Maybe you have less experience with the rules included in the Bounty campaign.
ICO Bounty also includes cryptocurrency, so everything depends on the participant.

If you can't afford to follow the rules then you participate.

[baiwei]

Many bounty campaign right now is not paying good reward because if they did not reach the hard cap the value of their token becomes lower than their ico price. So the effect is the bounty hunter and specially the investors will feel tired in joining on ico because when they get listed on exchanges sometimes their token becomes worthless.

[kencot]

personally, I still believe that there are many legit ico that can be followed. but to choose legit ico it's difficult. we must really analyze it well whether the project has good prospects or not. the most important thing is to stay patient and work hard so you can get the legit ICO.

bounty program is actually a great way to promote the project itself. given nowadays many scam around the corner. you have to be careful when choosing the right project. a legit program usually offer their own ICO coin as reward for certain task they require you to do, reward amount is quite lucrative as well.

anyway, as a bounty hunter, there is always a hit and miss. some coin perform well, you get paid, win win.
some are either not performing, scam project or developer not paying you up. those are miss.

you never know whether you got a hit before you sell off your coin and make profit out of the token you received. 

[dadanpradana]

Boutny is good and bad because all of that needs a process for success in the Exchange listing.

All Bounty participants also need time, energy and thought to do it.

[Stavri]

i dont agree with you. okey some of the suck. you can fail if you join the bounty program of a project that failed during crowdsale. they can not distribute you anything. or they can be scam as well. but there are still good bounty campaigns that you can earn a little bit money.

Paying with their tokens is part of spreading the project and the tokens,and we cannot force them to pay in any form than theirs,.because they are not forcing you to join the bounty,it is our prerogative if want to be part or not.so with this nothing we can’t do. ABOut it

[contactmike1]

Such job should be payed in tokens to increase brend awareness and to decrease marketing espenses. As you know, ICO collect money and they can't afford to waste money
Nobody will pay for your useless movies in stable currency. If I launch ICO, I would pay only to top bloggers.

[BluRPie]

Yes bounty is not profitable anymore.
Nobody forces to participate in bounty campaigns. After all, if you do not find economic sense in this, then why continue to participate?

It can be seen by two ways of the project , at one side we can suppose that the ICO don't want invest a bit of money and want to make free advertisements by using his own created free tokens , so overall they make it without spend a bit of the money .
Now come at another side , that , ICO team may have better concept of technology algorithm but due to problem of the money they are not able to give boost to the popularity of Thier project and with the help of the tokens they want serve Thier technology algorithm with Thier coin .
Well here I can't do anything for you in the both of the cases , but here I can give better suggestion for you , first of all you should get tokens from the ICO and then after get of the token , make the directly sell at discount because surely you will get at low price then what the ICO will set the price of Thier token .
Don't worry to sell , because you can found easily token buyers at Thier telegram channel at low price , so just accept token and sell them at low price , surely you will get much amount of money easily .
In this way you can make money and also ICO project will make Thier own advertisements without spend of money .

I find it hard to believe that some bounties are critiquing twitter content where the individual is going to work for days tweeting/retweeting over the course of a bounty for most likely $0 and they still want high quality.  LOL

This is really funny. What is the use of a token that is not listed on the exchange? It’s like a pizza with glass, you can’t eat it in your mouth.
This is an insincere performance, they try to deceive the bounty participants to provide them with free services.

[JovhanHermias]

Well maybe half of the ICO bounties are not all bad there are also good ICO bounties, the problem to this bounties does`n lie on the ICO it is in the market listing that almost all bounty participants are so hasty. They want the project to be listed in good exchanges but dont support the project all the way.

Yes, most bounty participants drain their tokens at the first opportunity. you need to study the project before you participate in the bounty

[Papcio77]

This past months, ICo are very useless and even raised a good numbers dont expect a good price after exchange. I  AGREE  with you that please pay the bounty participant in eth,btc or any usable currency. Dont just pay in token, once the project failed, so bounty hunter will not gain anything after doing the task
