After 2018 slump, Will bounties Die now ?

[Gabri]

I do not think that the number of bounty decrease. Companies are still more profitable to pay hunters than pay PR companies for advertising. And about the number of participants, the companies and managers themselves should tighten the rules. Now almost all who use bots remained idle because many forbid newcomers to participate in the bounty. I would do so in all companies and many scammers would just walk away.

No, bounties won't die now. ICO projects are still going to need bounty hunters. But as this year is a declining year for cryptos, the bounties are affected by it. If the crypto market was in the uptrend, bounties would also be in the uptrend. Anything depend on the crypto market trend.

No, the bounty hunter hasn't died yet, they are still needed to promote an ongoing project campaign, indeed this year the conditions are not like last year, and we all certainly hope that conditions like this will return to normal

[nizamcc]

What makes you think that? I believe that they will revive and begin to increase the amount of coins that they will be able to pay to bounty hunters.

Bounties will not die , but it will is already reduced constantly. The reward amount has been reduced in token and some of them is worthless. It's clearly that is unfair for bounty participants while the project still gain millions and their supporters receive token worth nothing.

Too many people joining is one problem, a ton of bounty cheaters coming in and stealing our work and identities is another problem, scam ICOS is another problem, getting after months and months of waiting for useless tokens that never hit an exchange is another problem and not earning enough to even pay my food bill every month is another BIG problem. So yeap bounties are certainly not what they were in 2017 and I am not sure I can continue doing this full time anymore if I can no longer earn a living from it. So I am going to have to rethink my whole strategy now in this space.

I still think that bounty hunters are still needed by many projects because the bounty campaign is the right way to promote the project in a short period of time, so if there is no bounty campaign, the project will have difficulty in getting investors because there is no good promotion on the project

Obviously, bounty plays a key role in this forum as it gives more profit. I agree that there are lot of scam bounty campaigns but all are not the same. Bounties give you tokens as well may be after few years it goes to good return. Many people have made lot of money from bounty campaigns and I am sure it will not die.

I haven't joined bounties in 2017 but in 2018. And there is not much in them now.

Alot of bounty hunters saying that this has been the worst year and it was much better in 2017 and the problem is the number of participants has increased big time and because of that there is nothing much left in bounties now.

Is it true ? and if it is then the participants are going to grow even more in the coming years so that means the bounties will drop further. And if this happens then what will be the future of the bounty hunters and with that what will be the future of cryptos ?

surely, bounties will not die just because problems have arise for ghis year's market situation.  The market is indeed on downtrend but I do think it won't be an enough resason for the complete stop on mass profuce of ICO projects. Absurd conclusions would more likely result to  regrets and disappointments. Be positive still and avoid complicating the situations.

IMO, the bounty cannot die in 2019 because it is currently the most effective form of ICO Token to attract capital from potential investors on the bitcointalk forum. So 2019 you still have peace of mind that the bounty will still exist, only the rate of cryptos is changed.

Judging by the fact that very often ICOs do not achieve the necessary goals, it seems to me that there will not be more participants, because basically they are coming now for quick money, but there are no quick bounty now!

1) yes it is true.
2) nobody knows.
If the market situation will not change, then there is a high risk that situation with bounties will be worse and worse.

Bounties will live and hunters will gain big income after bull run. It is hard to gain profit on depressive for everyone - fro investors, miners, founders , bounty managers , flippers and bounty hunters as well.
But bullish market will show us better dynamics

I also recently joined the crypto community and the bounty! in my opinion, one should not assume that the bounty has lost its perspective, just a large number of not honest projects have appeared that litter the space! The robust selection and analysis of the organizers of companies generosity - the key to success!

[houjinglong]

The problem is not caused by the large number of people joining. The fundamental reason is that the fake ICO is flooding the market, and the false iCO means a false bounty.

I am sure that the problem is not only in a large number of participants. Many projects do not reach the goal. They cancel or postpone the ICO. Of course, bounty hunters suffer from this, but we must accept it. Sooner or later, growth will begin and the rewards should grow significantly.

The market is down, and the bounty will never be able to completely collapse, I still have expectations in this market, I believe the market will soon recover and may be good for us. If we know how to choose the potential coin

I believe that the fact that the number of participants who want to join the bounty campaigns is increasing does not affect the fact that earnings have decreased and the situation has generally deteriorated. This is all due to the overall market situation. Projects increasingly difficult to attract funds. The market will recover and everything will fall into place.

[Dorvei]

I think that the problem is not in the number of participants, but in the number of good bounty companies .. Now, bounty hunters understand better where is good and where is bad, therefore, yes, good companies, very often, have a large number of participants.

[elitemobb]

And what is not, the distribution of tokens does not affect the distribution, because it is one of the types of popularization of the project, distributing tokens thereby attracting to use their platform

[adworker]

certainly increased the number of bounty hunters this year. But in 2018, the number of blockchain startups increased. And in the future they will only be more.
