Bounty Share vs. Fixed Bounty Payout

[PROTO_Token]

Many of you might have noticed some bounty programs payout by shares (the more people involved, the less tokens you get). Others payout a fixed amount.  Example complete (a) and receive 100 tokens.

I personally think bounty shares are a scam that no one can calculate without having access to participant data (which is never provided).

Fixed amount bounties are much more traditional and in the bounty hunter tradition.  You get what your promised.

What are your thoughts and which do you recommend?

I think it depends upon the number of participants in the campaign, percentage campaigns end up giving huge reward if the number of participants are less, i have seen people making huge number of tokens just because there were few participants only like in signature campaign and percentage allocation was high whereas in gixed reward you cannot get lucky, i mean you only get what they posted and usually that is small reward so i still favor percentage campaigns, you have to be smart and find out the low participant and successful projects to win big.

You cannot justify one ICO just because of the rule of their bounty. It aint a scam. It is just that it takes months and they want some workers who will do it until the end of the ICO. If they just pay it weekly then it is going to be a lot of work and also their token is mostly used for selling to the investors for starters.

Fixed amounts is mostly used for services in the bitcoin field where they payout weekly to boost the user into giving worthy paid posts.

It surely can't be called scam only because of you not being able to calculate it. It's very easy to calculate if total amount of tokens allocated for bounty is also distributed as supposed.

This is an interesting point.  Low participation campaigns don't necessarily mean the project won't be successful.

When structuring a bounty program maybe the best setup is a combination of percentage and fixed rewards.

If the bounty reward is say 100 tokens, you participate and get paid out (1) token.  There is no info to prove 99 other people participated.

Public chain info on etherscan, etc does not display Bounty Info with the transaction hash.

How do you know you were paid fairly?

More than a year ago, bounty hunters had a good income, which could reach $ 10,000 per month, but now it is not. A lot of people participate in bounty programs and most of them are multi accounts, if you look at the table, the number of participants reaches 2000-3000 people and the payment at the end will be 20 dollars. I participate in several bounty programs and it takes me 30 minutes a day, it's for fun. The time for good bounty awards has gone. But if you have more than 100,000 copyists on YouTube channel, twitter, linkedin and other social networks, then you may well be good at this one!

I believe that it doesn't matter what the payout is, as long as you due your diligence and work decently hard for it, any payout is better than not. What you should worry about more than the type of payouts, is will they payout? I often times find that a lot of these "bounty programs" don't pay out and that is what really ticks me off, not the type of payout.

personally I prefer bounty payments that have been fixed but I also like when paid in a stake or shares.
usually a bounty campaign with a fixed payment system will be limited while a bounty campaign with a stake or share payment system will not be limited.

[Docbee]

I go for bounty share, it pays more, but in a situation where there are too many participants fixed bounty payout pays more i have never been part of any fixed bounty payout for once.

For bounties like twitter and facebook its obvious to have shared stakes, however for translation content creation fixed amounts are usually given. This is because project owners and bounty managers have fixed slots for them, on the other hand the more social media bounty and signature bounty participants they get the more promotion happens, hence the shared stake measure.

[Vaniaayu]

I rather hope that the calculation using shares, or that we know are the stake. The fewer who follow the bounty campaign, then the results we get will be more and more. And I do not think scammers can be seen from their calculation system

[frowsiter]

I think there are mostly fixed amount of token payout in the bounties and I have not seen any bounties with according to share of participant. For now, thats the best option I guess, I mean this makes sure that how much ICO is willing to from the total supply of their coins adn they can make their plans accordingly as to survive the market crash that may occur after dumping so many coins at the same time. On participant side, yes its always advantage as we also can keep track of how much token we will be getting.

[FrueGreads]

Well I usually prefer fixed bounty payout, just because it makes easier for me to know the amount of tokens I will get, but on either options you don't really know what you will get (at least in terms of fiat), so I guess that in the end it wont matter much.
You never know how much each token will be worth at the end of the ICO, and you usually have to wait a while before you actually get paid, so there is always the option to end up getting a good payment, or a poor one.

I think you really need to look at bounty campaigns as if you were going to invest on the project yourself, because in the end, you will be investing your time on that project. If you think it's a good project and that the tokens will be worth something, then I guess you will always be happy with the overall result.

[Pet240]

I will prefer the fixed amount more, compared to the shared, except the bounty manager is someone that can be trusted. There is one thing i have also noticed about shared bounty, most especially when it comes to signature campaign, the members with higher ranks get tremendously higher reward compared  to those of lower rank.

[Warry]

I don't think so . You only receive just little amount of token after each bounty campaign just because of your low account rank, beside I think there is one more reason that you join social media campaign which always has big number of participants and lower share than signature bounty

[BillCoin]

Really depends if you really trust and believe the project or you just do it because you got free money.
At the first case- the more successful the project will be the higher chances of you to get higher payout, on the other hand when it's a fixed payment you already know in advance  that you are going to get X amount of money.

I usually go for the fixed payout because I am really sceptic when it comes to ICOs because I think that most of them are scams, I prefer to get guaranteed money for my work, other then taking the gamble of investing in something that I am most likely don't believe in at all.
Stay safe and you will be able to live longer in the cryptocurrency market.

True. Bounty shares are difficult to calculate and you don't even know how much you will earn until they put you the value you earned end of the campaign or after some time once the campaign is over.

Bounty fixed payments are good but you cannot easily jusge that those project are really a good one or a potential project to give away your earnings once they are successful. In both campaigns you have the risk that the payment may be recived or may not be.

[helin9108]

I have worked for both either stakes or share and fixed payout and I like most bounty shares as in this if bounty pool is big and participant are less you will earn big. Other side I have seen in fix payout very payments we get. And for particular signature campaign there is always less participants and bounty pool is also high compare to other campaigns so we will get more higher reward rather than fixed payout.

I do not know what you talk about, but in every single bounty I joined the spreadsheet for participants data was shared in public . If any bounty choose not do make it public then I never join, because hiding something without any reason = shady acts .

share based bounties are usually paying a lot more than fixed one specially if they have no much participants, and btw bounties with high number of participants end up with much less numbers than shows after deleting multi account users and cheaters etc .... .

[belochoi]

It does not matter or fixed. the main thing that the project was on the exchangers! and the price did not fall x10
