For those bounty hunters who can hardly relate

[EverydayBtc]

I come here to learn not to feel 
Im not a full time bounty hunter but still can relate I know how it feels when after all your hard work it does not paid off they just got free promotion.

This ain't shit man. The worst bounty I participated in was opporty. Bounty run for 6 months and it took them a year to complete ico--but not exactly. The team decided to just list the token in an unknown exchange with an unreasonably strict kyc. Moreover, the bounty tokens are locked for a year.

A typical day is usually bounty hunter So this is also not the worst option possible. Let's hope that the situation will change for the better.

I'm not a bounty hunter but it's for sure the problem of most when you have felt each others frustration. After waiting for a long time and wanted to see on how much you made with that token, in the end you'll just say nothing because you are tired already.

Those projects are getting free advertisement by paying us tokens that don't have any value that they've created from the air at all. The humor here is good mate. Super relatable. 

That's what they really do, they advertise and will pay the people with their tokens. And from the beginning they had plan to delay all of those payments and lock the BH's tokens so it won't be dumped quickly.

lol i can relate to this. haha i remember so many bounty campaign doing it.
bounty campaign is not worth it anymore. there's a lot of cheater joining one campaign and get paid.

[cheezcarls]

Take my merit, dude
It's just a wonderful, the most exact, widespread, short and true story about an average bounty campaign. I experienced it a few times in the beginning of 2018 and I've decided to quit for a while. We'll see what we'll get now in 2019))

Thank you for that dude. Appreciated it much.

It would be a lot of worse when a bounty program has Phase 2, Phase 3, etc., that would make us wait for a very, very, very, very, very long time. Just another common delaying tactic and I've experienced that before.

It hurts us a lot after spending months of hardwork and in the end we get zero to a few bucks for all tokens that we get.

To all crypto bounty hunters who can hardly relate:

Situation: ICO started their main sale and will last 2 months and offers bounty program. ICO price was $0.5.
Bounty Hunter: I will join their signature campaign! Let’s do this!

After 1 month....

Admin: We decided to pause the campaign because our legal advisor suggests for our product to be fully compliant with the country’s regulations.
Bounty Hunter: (facepalm)

After 1 month....

Admin: Good news bounty hunters! We will now resume our bounty campaign. Since ICO was extended for a month, the same goes to our bounty campaign. Happy bounty hunting!
Bounty Hunter: Yippee!!!

After 1 month (one day before the ICO ends)....

Admin edits the ICO countdown timer and replied: Due to overwhelming demand, we decided to extend the ICO to another 2 months!
Bounty Hunter: Whaaaaat??? (But decides to continue the signature campaign).

After 2 months....

Admin: Congrats bounty hunters! Our ICO is successful! Here’s the final spreadsheet!
Bounty hunter looks at the spreadsheet and replied: 1,000 stakes for me! Yippee! I’m excited for my tokens to be distributed.
Admin: Good for you! We will distribute the tokens within 2 weeks!
Bounty Hunter: All right! My hardwork finally pays off in 2 weeks! Can’t wait!

After 2 weeks....

Admin: I received an advise from our legal advisor that bounty hunters must complete KYC process. Since we have an influx of bounty hunters, approving your KYC might take days to weeks.
Bounty Hunter: (sigh) Oh well, it’s better than nothing. I’ll just do it anyway. (Logs in to site and submits KYC verification).

After 3 weeks....

Bounty Hunter receives an email that his KYC was approved and was excited, however.....
Admin: We would like to congratulate those bounty hunters who have passed their KYC. Unfortunately, we had a meeting with the development team. It has come to a conclusion that our team voted for bounty hunter tokens to be locked and will be distributed after 6 months to avoid massive dumping in the exchange.
Bounty Hunter: Admin I HATE YOU!!!!

After 6 months....

Admin: Bounty hunter tokens are now unlocked. You can now transfer your tokens from the dashboard to your ETH wallet. Thank you!

Bounty hunter transfers his tokens to his ETH wallet. After successfully transferred, he goes to Etherdelta exchange where he can trade his token to BTC or ETH. Unfortunately, the token’s buying orders are empty. Only selling orders appear with the lowest bid at $0.001 per token.  

Bounty hunter: F*** you admin!!!!! My efforts are wasted coz’ they’re worth shitcoins!!!!
Admin: (blocks bounty hunter from Telegram channel).

Trust me guys, I’ve been here before. Are you too? 😂🤣😅

You are really on point. This and more we face everyday, there is a bounty that is currently in it's 48th or 52nd week I think (name withheld). I can only imagine what the hunters are going through and how dey will feel if the project doesn't end well. I'm glad I joined just d content campaign. I'm not that patient.

The most annoying aspect is how hunters are being evicted from their groups without any second thought. I happened to me just last week after waiting for 6 months

Truely sad story of bounty hunters, that is the real story from dev and team to bounty hunters most of the time, i just hope God will delivers us.

[semobo]

This is the actual situation of the bounty Hunters since 2018 so people are not making much from bounties and even small becomes harder due to lot of scam bounties and increase in number of participants so people stop doing bounties or this will keep going forever.

[Binauf]

I can relate. I have participated in a bounty that lasted up to 10 months, and at the tail end of the reward they came up with some stories that they couldn't reach hard cap, hence the bounty reward reduced.  Bounties these days is just pure luck,  but doesn't mean you should stop participating.

[mirgo1791]

the token gives with price on ico terms as trader might put with spares of funds on possession as gains on future terms of running moderation as preparing to complete within the bands on objective as capturing of finest on number with value on completion.

[AzamNurWahid]

everything you say is 100% in the conversation of some of projects that I've participated in and this sometimes seems very ridiculous, even I was one of people who had been kicked from telegram and didn't get my work for several months

[AlekseyCrypto]

Yes, it's the harsh truth of earning a bounty. I am constantly faced with this problem and no longer want to continue, it's so not fair.

[cichaescut]

Some projects simply cannot handle bounty programmes. Firstly they are trying to reduce the budget and banning everybody who claims agains it. Secondly after they have released all tokens, hunters are dumping this coin because they do not like the team. -> be nice with hunters

[yulchatar]

It would be funny if it were not so sad. I think many bounty hunters had similar stories. And I'm not an exception. I participated in the campaign for more than 20 weeks and eventually got a pennies. I feel sorry for my time spent.

[Babbylily1112]

You just described the history of bounty hunters with most projects, infact I have been a victim of almost all you described above and to tell you the truth it has never been a good experience

[khufuking]

Damn it I don't have Merit to give to you for this post it is exactly what is happening currently with most bounties, there are some bounties that distribute in time too but still, they go to zero value after distribution and that is because they faked their sales. Bounty hunting work is totally meh at the moment and most payments have no value at all.

it is possible for the Bounty participants themselves there is no point in working, since their work is practically not valued, although this work has a very large impact on the advertising of the relevant project. I believe that the work of the Bounty Hunters and their remuneration are disproportionate.

[castiloros]

I think it has become a risk. Crypto continue to just be getting worse and it's the effect on many projects ongoing ICO. just look at this sort of thing is starting numerous found and of course, the bounty hunter and the investors should be willing to be patient and even without results.

So true, made my day!

It's not easy at all finding a legit ICO treating bounty hunters well. So sad. But I hope some will realise how important it is to treat them well because they can be a part of the community. If they scam their community the'll punished by a horrible dump.
And all of them lying to everyone that bounty hunters have to do KYC before it was announced it's not required: it's only a lie of the team to save expenses for bounty distribution.
