Why is bounty not an investment?

[Coingram]

Yeah, thats true. Bounty hunters are investing their time first of all. Some of them are even upgrading their accounts by buying followers or else (also investment)

[gabbie2010]

For a project to be successful there must be massive promotion and advertisements in form of bounties, contributors, investors, managers and airdrops are forms investments aim towards achieving the ultimate goal of a project, people invested their time and energy towards such projects as their own investment.

[Lemayilleur]

Bounty is considered an investment of his time, I fully agree with you. But I'm used to call it a work or a hobby, and call the purchase of a particular cryptocurrency an investment

[mukul11122]

Bounty is not an investment beacuse an investment is made by choice but for bounty you just enroll irrespective of you like tghe project or not.Investment on the other hand is made on a project of choice.

I think one with you if an investor spend capital to invest in ico while bounty campaign participants capitalize their ability to get the tokens. so in my opinion the only difference is the capital of investors with material capital while bounty participants capitalize their energy

[Bitcoinjheta]

Anything you want to describe about bounty is still be a crypto investment. What is being called as bounty because it refers to the allocated capital which you wanna get it once the campaign has successfully launch in the market, while refers to invest in a project because there is big opportunity that that project will soon to be profitable coins in the marketcap.

Because you're investing time like a job, people don't go and work in mcdonalds and call it an investment.

[Cryptomonyet]

I agree with you, Bounty hunter is invested their time to help the project become big and known to many people. But for others, the investment here is those who invest their capital / money into the project. so for others bounty hunters is considered not doing any investment.

I have seen a lot of threads here asking about whether people will invest in a coin or do bounty. Its high time we all understood that, investment is not only about money. To me, any effort put into something to make it a reality can be regarded as investment. People who buy coins invest with their monies whiles those who participate in bounties also invest with their time and energy. Money is a replaceable resource but time can never replaced. To me, bounty hunters are also investors. What do you think?

For me, I think bounty is still an investment in my eyes. You know why? Instead of spending our hard-earned money to buy tokens, we spend our time and effort to promote their project. It’s like the traditional affiliate marketing program, where we spend our time and effort promoting the product in hopes of getting a sale and paid in commissions. Just my two sats.

yes indeed, although many of the hunters dump after the exchange listings, they have vested their precious time promoting that certain coin. some of the bounty hunters i know are hodlers too.

[GFE]

Yeah, we are investing our time to get bounty reward. May be for poor people time is not so important as resource as rich people. Every rich man knows the price of time

[yeeyeyaya]

I think it depends on everyone. I myself prefer bounty because it will not result in loss and it is an easy task. maybe for some people who do not have spare time they prefer to invest than do bounty campaign.

[cryptomite]

 I can agree on that bounty campaigns is an investment of our time and effort but you are not investing your money so it is less effective and less profitable than actual investing in ICO or cryptocurrency itself.

[nantaken]

This can only be an investment of your time since the bounty company take a few months before you can get rewarded

[Freddy63]

Why not?
 I believe it is the same as investment, but sometimes with extremely low effort you can gain higher than average backer, so bounty is a good chance for me

[surgical_duude]

. To me, bounty hunters are also investors. What do you think?

I don't think so. Yes! Bounty hunters have to put their efforts into campaign. We can say that bounty hunter are investing their efforts, but they aren't investors. Investor are people that puts money into financial schemes, property,... with the expectation of achieving a profit. Bounty hunter is  a personnel of the project.

I fully agree with you and share your opinion. I do not know why people just do not appreciate their work and time and think that only when they give money can lose. In fact, they lose so much when they give away their time without any reward for it. In my opinion, everyone should know how much his own time is worth.

[chanler]

I think the bounty is a job, we use or spend our time to work for something. Then, we get the payment for our job done. However, the payment may be not sure. Sometimes, we get nothing. But sometimes, we get many things. So, it depends on our views about the bounty.

[sumangs]

Investment doesn't always into money but also efforts. Doing bounty is not an easy task if you work on such multiple bounties.  If you do it full-time then it is considered as a job(?) already since most of your time is only on doing task such as advertising ICOs on social media and the bitcointalk forum itself. Investments doesn't also mean that they are already investors, it is a different word. Those who risking putting their money on such ICO have greater consequences to deal with. For those bounty hunters only efforts are wasted but for those who really invest money could loss a real money. Both have going to lose something but the reward money could erase it all.

[jcmansah7]

Yeahh you are very right i think it is high time we gave bounty hunters some credits for the promotional activities that they do to send the news about Initial Coin Offerings all over the world. Time indeed is money and so in one way or another they are investing their resources which is their time into it and they must be accorded the needed respect.
