I just got out of Excolony bounty campaign I don't know if they will still pay bounty hunters, but if the bounty channel have no one on the team or the bounty manager is not login anymore in this forum this  is a warning sign for bounty hunters to consider, do you have similar experience like this.
Now there are many similar cases, because project developers are in no hurry to distribute their tokens, and some of them are scammers. I had a similar experience and I am still waiting for tokens from the project, their telegrams are also filled with spam and there are no updates, but I do not lose hope that the team is waiting for favorable conditions. So do not be discouraged ahead of time.

In crypto area the project is a community. The lack of community and/or any social media activity is a huge red flag for me to follow the project. Whatever it is - bounty, ICO or any others.

As a rule, this is the first sign that something is wrong with the project. I can also say in my experience that additional alarming signals can be called: a very long count of stakes, gross errors in the calculation, ignoring questions from the bounty manager.

I completely agree with you, because such reasons are very obvious for a fraudulent project, Or maybe for a less demanded project in the market. But if we take into account the current market connector, then the majority of projects today suffer from just such indicators.

Yeah that is one of the warning signs of a scam project but you shouldn't conclude just like that. You try your maximum best to do your research on the project and ask why there is no update on the project, if know relevant answer comes out then you are right. There is no need to join such project.

I think that if a team is interested in the development of a project, then it will definitely not allow at least one of the social networks to be updated with it

I think the biggest warning sign is main telegram channel without updates.
But as for bounty channel, probably it is abandoned, because bounty is finished and this is the case. Don't you think so, mate?

Constant communication with the community is a great sign of commitment and transparency. I have joined many bounty campaigns and already have encountered many projects that failed and began to quietly abandoning their telegram group. In your case they might be busy and you must wait for them to have an update.

If the team from the project and bounty manager has not been updating or answering message on their channel then there is only two reason, first they might busy developing the project or bounty manager is still not finish with the work and don't want to answer until its done, second the project turn to be scam and the team is hiding.

I agree, since telegram is one of the most important social networks for the project, since it is there that active discussions are conducted and without the participation of managers, such projects do not inspire confidence.

I have a lot of such dead chats nad channels. Usually a group with no activiry is a scam. It's better to forget about these tokens and try to be more lucky next time with projects.

This is more reason I ensure that u tasks my time to know about any project, whose bounty I want to participate in, because some things like this are inevitable, most especially in scam projects.
Based on what you have said, it is very much possible its a scam project. Although, there are also some scam projects, whose team will are very active. After getting what they needed, it is them you will notice they no more exist.

Once you realize people have started spamming the group and the team is silent about it, it means they are gone. When there is no information about the progress of the project and no one is responding to member's questions, you don't need to be told that the project is dead.

I think most times, what the bounty manager does is to leave a pinned post addressing the silence in the group
And the spreadsheet is attended to especially the signatures campaigns

Except bad bounty manager
It is not enough reason for alarm

It is true that many of the bounties which have telegram but is not active, then it could be a harbinger of a scam. It is already a lot going on and if it can be thorough in this then at least will be able to avoid a scam. the renewal should be always there to inform the development of projects that are carried out so as to make the investor and participant bounty satisfied look. and when it's not there then leave it out.

Yes, this will be a warning for bounty hunters. This is like what happened on the ECTV project a few days ago, that many Bounty participants complained because the team disappeared. And in the end, this project is a SCAM and I hope we must be careful about participating in the ICO project.

I can't understand why you were the bounty hunter on this project. If you stop working with the community it gives hints that the project scam. I have already said many times that it is necessary to analyze the project constructively.

Nah. That is the best choice because we really won't get anything from a bounty that has such a problem. So, it's better to leave the project although without the payment. And I think almost all bounty participants have experienced this problem. Although there were some participants who realized it and or ignored it.

if in 1 day they are not active, that is normal, because they are human and need rest or vacation. when they exceed 1 day of inactivity, it needs to be suspect. IMO
 for me personally, communication on the telegram is very important, because there is a gathering place for investors and teams directly. So, if there is no communication, how will we know the development of the project? if that happens, then just leave them.
