ICO and bounty hunters

[amos77978]

Is there any organisation out there today that protects the right of bounty hunters??

And is there a way to know if the project you're promoting is legit or not?? Because Even with the presence of SEC the rate of scam ico's has increased drastically

It used to be those rating, but they cannot even track who are scam and who are not, there were reports that some of these rating sites are even receiving money from ICO to get a good rating, we do not have a legit and honest organizations to track who are scam and who are not.

I think there are no organizations like you at all, BM and bounty platforms are not bountyhunter protectors, they are just middlemen and they can also be deceived. To avoid scam projects the best way is to rely on yourself.

I know some projects have ability to track the ICOs as well as verify them. But I do not know whether it really works. You can visit Loligo project and W12 project. I read their concepts, I think they can solve the legal problem of ICOs.

No, there is none.
All you can do only DYOR about project you want participate, also, why don't you only join on campaign which pay you with bitcoin? It has less risk rather than join ICO campaign

None.
Bounty hunters aren't registered and there's no body of government that protects the rights of you guys. While the rewards are through crypto, it's also a hot topic that some government are putting their hands off through crypto.

We will see by 2019 SEC's full statement about ICOs. Knowing what's legit or not, is hard today as most of them are scam though they have an interesting whitepaper and roadmap.

until now there hasn't been one. so until now many bounty hunters have been harmed or after he worked they were reluctant to pay.

there is no way to find out if there are only a few scams because they manipulate a lot of team data to create projects, hopefully this can be overcome by many parties so that all projects can be safe to follow.

How we wish there are but no there are none and we are left to our own and besides it might become a source of corruption, like what happen to some rating sites, who are supposed to be our guide but ends up conniving with scam ICO to get high grades from their rating.

In my opinion, at the moment there are no clear regulations that mention a project.
for me, a bounty hunter only bet on the luck they have in determining which projects succeed or not.
when the project they are participating in is successful then it is luck.
While when the project fails, they must be able to receive as well as possible.

I've been thinking about the need for a Union for bounty hunters for a long time. It seems to me that this would be a good option and many bounty hunters would agree to give a few percent of their income in exchange for protection of interests.

There was a time that teams are doing ICO are required to have escrows. Escrows can be a safeguard for the bounty hunters and also the investors depending to the agreement but then again no one is for sure about getting paid but there's higher chance of it. Those times I think were better than the ones that is happening today. SEC would also be good and its currently happening on some corners of the globe.

Now, in my opinion, there is no organization that would defend the right of bounty hunters. Over time, the activities of the ICO will be regulated by the states. Then there will be a government agency that may consider complaints against ICO teams. Many states are already taking certain steps to regulate ICO activities. These are Japan, Germany, France, Russia, Australia.

As far as I know, there is no existing organization or group inside our forum dealing with that kind of matters. The mods are the one who take responsible for giving disciplinary actions against scammers (by putting neg trust of course).

And is there a way to know if the project you're promoting is legit or not??

Yup! It is by doing your own research on that particular project. You should visit their site and social media accounts, look for their whitpaper and objectives and look for the dev team. The answer for your question will based on your intuition and own analysis with the small help of opinions coming from the others (keeping updated in the Service Discussion might help too.

Here's a tip, if the project is too good to be true or looks shady then there's a big chance that it was a scam. Be very careful in making decisions and good luck .

Actually, its hard to determine if you the project that you have promoting is legit or not. There is no organization that protect that right of bounty hunters and as of now some bounty hunter do not receive their rewards after promoting the project simply because it is failed or it is scam.

[Ramtapsbtc]

For now there is no organization that protect bounty hunters from scammers i think. I do hope that there will one in the future but as a bounty hunter we should also do our part on making the project successful by not spamming.

Never heard of any such institution or organization that protects hunter bounty rights. Even the rights of investors who are deceived are hard to fight for. Can only report to the authorities.

There was a time that teams are doing ICO are required to have escrows. Escrows can be a safeguard for the bounty hunters and also the investors depending to the agreement but then again no one is for sure about getting paid but there's higher chance of it.

In my opinion requiring escrow in conducting ICO is/was a good option. But the possibility of fraud can still occur. And yes, perhaps SEC could be one of the options for ICO regulator, but not bounty hunters IMHO.

there is no organization that protects the copyright of hunters because we are here playing for free and there is no coercion, so when the time we risk becomes useless it is the risk of each individual.

[Tosin12]

There is no any cooperate body that is protecting bounty hunters, the team and bounty manager treat bounty hunter as beggers or think they are not important but you can avoid scam bounty by following trusted bounty managers without picking bounties randomly

[absurde]

There is no support for bounty hunters, they are not guranteed . But in my opnion escrows should be involved this situation and protect bounty hunters rights.
