Is bountyhive suspicious to you?

[svobodnyi]

I generally refused to use this service and connect to their bounty.
By 5000 participants, what can you earn there ?! 5 dollars for 3 months of work ??

[Crasengover]

I don't like both Bountyhive and Bounty0x, until they publich spreadsheets for every bounty campaign I can't trust them. I'm participating in one campaign on Bountyhive just to check how it works, but there's a huge amount of participants, not sure that all of them are real, so I don't really expect to get any worth reward from it, so I do it just for a test.

I agree there are no spreadsheets and mostly 5000 users get filled overnight which makes one think that system is real or corrupted. They should provide record of all participants so that transparency in the system is maintained.

[Alohadanc3]

Firstly I think I am the one who thinks about it.In my opinion yes they are doing something wrong.I realize it when I saw 5000 facebook bounty hunter less than 4 hours.What is this Are you kidding me.I think BH should be ban from this crypto world.They are just using bots and wants to manipulate the whole bounty system.

For me bountyhive is really great and good project for the bounty. At the moment im not now in any bounty at the moment. But if i start to earn token with bounty , bountyhive will be number one portal for me. Because it is very easy register for any bounty. And not some many activity.

Sure it is,that is why i dont really going to join any of their bounty because there are less transparency compare to the traditional bounty campaigns here in bitcointalk,no spreadsheet is worst than the corrupted bounty manager here! we cannot complaint about our stakes if there is no proof that they are cheating that is how shady things there are.

[chukaday]

Transparency is key when dealing with anybody in life, in any business transactions. When you fail to have this, you can't help but feel you are getting screwed over and generally for good reason. I for that reason won't even go near Bountyhive although I have known about it for quite a while now.

[hiwainmoto]

Looks very suspicous that is why i didnt join any of their bounties,no transparency at all spreadsheet is very needed in every campaign so that the stakes will be calculated accurately, hiding it from people surely wont give any good because what if someone has problem with their stakes? how can you appeal when the stakes are already distributed to the people?

[mariomerula]

I partecipated in some bounty on their website and they paid me.. but you have reason, noone can verify stakes.....
however it's very easy to use and very fast with no reporting...

[cryptomarijuana]

To be honest i do not trust these people because why would they hide the spreadsheet if they arent doing shady things?most likely they can easily manipulate the spreadsheet or stakes of each participants giving them plenty of the allocations for themselves! Greediness is always there when we are talking about millions of dollars on hand.

[cryptocrocs]

I dont like to get involved into something that i cannot see my progress,spreadsheet is the only thing that the hunters are holding to between getting paid or not,without it theres no assurance that you will get paid,Bountyhive hidden it from people because they can easily manipulate the stakes of these campaigns if theres no one who can check or see their stakes! simply no evidence there will be no crime.

[Osiris0]

Yes, I do not like the way the are positioning themselves. Kind of a centralized stuff, using slavery and blackfog to cover nasty things... Do not like them. 

[rehanaurora]

Yes,it's look suspicious no transparency in it, I don't also know how they count in the stakes and no spreadsheet . I hope the team Bountyhive will finalize the website and add open data for participants. Cause now I joined bountyhive's campaign and I am also waiting soon for my first payments so I hope all will go well.

[Ayam1fish]

Well, we dont know whether they sometimes take almost all the coins to themselves or not. But even if they do that, no one will get to know anything about it. Sometimes they refuse to give you some tokens for some campaign and give their own reason for that. For the number of participants being that high, i think its because they pay as they promise.

[cryptoprophecy]

No spreadsheet doesnt make any sense,if they really want to help the hunters they should have something in hand,because if these people wont get anyone's payout there will be no way to find out how because there are no records to ask,no transparency ! Im sure if you are in their positions you will do the same,take most of the tokens with each bounties and make millions of dollars from stealing people's stakes.

[Thymoty]

It seems very suspicious to me that the BountyHive is a black box.  We do not get to see who is entering.  There is no spreadsheet.  There is no oversight.  Bountyhive could be taking half the coins for themselves for all we know.

Then a new bounty comes out.

The bounty fills up and closes faster than airdrops.  I'm talking 5k participants within a few hours.  Go check every other bounty spreadsheet with public results here on the forum.  You do not find anything close to this rate of participation anywhere else.

I have no idea if they are legit or not but something seems off in all of this and I'm writing to see if anyone else has the same suspicions.  BountyHive could be pulling off a large heist.  How would we know?

Bonty hive is one of the best Bounty platforms I think, so if they do not provide spreadsheets I think that's their right, to be honest,
I've participated in 2 projects held by Bounty Hive team and the results of both are very profitable.

[nakauten]

Yeah,we have the same thoughts what if someone has received few or wrong stakes ? where would be refer it too? guessing it ? none because the only people who will know are the people behind the hive,doesnt make sense if they wont give us spreadsheet there will be less transparency compare to the traditional bounty campaigns here because here,the bounties has spreadsheet where you can refer your stakes too,you can complaint based on your stakes but it isnt what these people think,the hive might be cheating at all but who knows?

[cryptoux]

Honestly i do not trust the system they are implemented to,because it doesnt make sense why wouldnt show us the spreadsheet? they arent resolving the shortcomings of the traditional businesses because they are worst then these greedy managers in bitcointalk! There are less transparency compare to what we have here in bitcointalk.

[jbautistangina]

Looks not very untrusthy because they dont have any spreadsheet that is the most important thing that the bounty hunters should see because that will be the reference of their rewards?! What the heck are they going to check if they are getting the right stakes ? how would they see if these participants are real? These people can easily manipulate the stakes because people doesnt see anything !

Currently, I am participating in 2 Bounty Hive campaigns and like the platform so far.  

I can appreciate what you are saying regarding not being able to verify your entries until the end.  

There is obviously a potential here for the company to 'scam' people by not paying however that doesn't seem to be the case.  

There has been a large amount of coins paid out as several people have indicated in prior posts.  

Second, the company needs more participants in order to attract more ICOs to list there.  

Yes, Bounty hive receives coins for running the bounty campaign but it doesn't suit them to rip off their 'hunters' since they are the ones raising awareness online for the ICO campaigns.  

It's important to note that if bounty hive has over 20K 'hunters' that new campaigns will fill up quickly. My guess is that the majority of these people fall in the bottom tiers which makes payouts lower.  This is not evidence of a 'scam' but basic math.

I would like it if Bounty Hive provided a breakdown of the total number of people in each tier so we can calculate our own results at the end of the campaigns to see if its worth it to participate.  I think that everyone should seek to increase their FB friends, Twitter followers, etc before the campaign ends so they hit the higher tier and increase their payout.  

It's also a good idea to track your participation until Bounty Hive provides a spreadsheet during the campaigns.
