Guys, faced with the project, took part in the bounty, the result of Scam. Took part in another bounty company, there ICO ended more than a month ago, and the payment has not yet been the bounty Manager is silent...Apparently this year's bad in respect of ICO projects.
it is true there are some ICO scam and bounty program participants no one gets paid but it does not make me desperate and want to stop being a prize hunter because I'm sure there are still many good ICO who will succeed and pay their bounty hunters

Not every projects are scam because there are still a lot of people who are getting profit by working on bounty campaigns and because of that, we can say that bounty campaigns are still profitable up to today.

Yes, I also often come across scammers. And it's very frustrating for me. I really want this industry to be much better.

The whole idea of ICOs is very good, because it allows people with good knowledge and strong vision of their project to raise the funds to make them real. However, it is mainly used to scam people as well as for money laundering. I think eventually there will appear some standards for ICOs and bad project simply won't attract investors.
So many good ideas have had to be hijacked by criminally minded people and ICOs happened to be one of the latest and that explains the banning and strictness of most countries on ICOs and why KYC is fast becoming a criteria to participation.

Quote
For now, though, I believe it is better to avoid icos and simply wait till they make it to big exchanges before investing. The prices often fall a lot right after that, so it is a more beneficial strategy than the one where you risk to lose everything by giving your money to scammers.
That's probably a good strategy and a closer look at the traces left by most coins/tokens, confirms your take that price usually fall, soon after it's listed in an exchange and that's on account of rush to sell off by good number of participants. So spotting a good project and marking time until a time as above, can actually be more profitable and safer than buying during ICOs.

When did you start participating in bounty? When i checked your profile, i discovered that you just got registered on this forum February of this year, which means that you just started this year, if i am not mistaking. perhaps you were told by someone that last year's ICo were better than this year, in terms of bounty.
I actually want to encourage you, because there are still good bounty campaigns this year both from the ones i participated and those i was told of by friends that were into it before me.
The crypto space still has profitable bounties without scam.

The coins that is being built by  the newbies and the old timers are trying to make as much Bitcoins as they can because they feel that the coin will be worth something one day. The scams won't stop anytime soon.

I think for now many projects are scam and everyone will not know much of his scam project is difficult for us to predict with the capabilities we have

therefore we must understand what projects are not scam
and understand the aspects of the bounty to avoid an increasingly scam project

I've read that there are more than 80000 ERC-20 tokens already.
Of course, most of them are complete trash.
We just should research more diligently before participating in a bounty and be OK with a fact that it can fail.

Yes, I agree, so when you participate in the ICO, you must take the time to seriously investigate the project, so that you can avoid the scam.

Yes thats true mate I guess this year is not realy a productive year for ICO. Based on my observation most ICO created this year is not profitable and worst is that some of them are scam. 2016 and 2017 is the best year for the ico.

Part of the bounty is really a scam.
Another part of the companies does not collect the necessary amount of money to start the project, and they close the ICO.
Now, in addition to the scam, a very difficult situation on the market, everything will fall. It's hard to start a good project.
Members of the bounty companies  likewise risk remaining without reward.
Well, every project will always have their soft cap and hard cap, so for a project that ended up not reaching its soft cap and returning funds back to the investor to me is not a scam project and all that happened was just an unfortunate incidence that could happen to any ICO. For someone who did a bounty for such project also ended up in the unfortunate part of things, since as a bounty hunter, that is one of the things you sign up for, but I guess some people do not always read before applying.

Unfortunately the percentage of the scaffold among the bounty projects has increased very much. It is also very difficult for investors, as many projects do not go to stock exchanges or come out, but the rate of their crypto-currency is very low.

The market of crypto-currencies has become less popular and projects collect less and less money. Therefore, there are so many scammers who, under the guise of raising funds, steal money.

It has always been like this and it is not just about this year. In fact, I feel they have seriously reduced compared to last year, and with the way things are going with regulation, it is actually affecting some of them.

Nevertheless, it is not like I am disputing the availability of scam project, but you should get used to the fact that as a bounty hunter, you may actually have to wait for a certain period before you get paid and if the project ends up not being successful which happens sometimes, you definitely would not expect to get paid for that, do you?

There are lots of money in ICO, so scammers see this as good opportunity to make money. We cannot stop this, but we can at least choose the right ICO to participate or join as bounty hunters. I dread the day that there will be no more ICO participants because there are too many scammers already in it.
