Somehow tired of bounty/airdrop (share your story on this thread)

[ije07]

maybe now you think that you don't get something worthy of all the effort you have made, but did you know that one day the amount of dollars you have will increase? because the price is very volatile, then you still tend to get something more, for example when your wallet contains a lot of coins but if you convert it into dollars then the amount is only a few dollars, maybe you will be disappointed but actually you can still get a larger amount because we don't know how much the coins might cost

As the title implies I am somehow tired of bounties after only 2 years in this "world" : I've been a bounty hunter,(100+ projects), I did more than 700+ airdrops, I've been a translator, content writer..you name it. .When I started everything was working so well(I have to mention that I started doing it with 6 months before the last bull market) and I could get some nice amount of money at the time, I remember that I wanted to do it for my entire life because everyday I learned something new and make a little profit from it.I'm tired because nowadays there are so many scam projects(maybe 90% of them), some fail(maybe 5%) because everyone knows that is very hard to raise money in the bear market and only 5% have a real use, a good team and good project overall and they usually are not doing a bounty.My question for all of you is: Should I continue to look for bounties anymore? (Share your story, feelings, bounty campaign that is worth working for here. )

My airdrop and bounty experience is not any different. Currently, my wallet is full of shits that have no market value. Initially I was hopeful that someday there will worth something good but that expectation seem not forthcoming and so I decided to pedal down for the main time. That is not to say that there are no good airdrops and bounties anylonger but very scanty. It's better to spot good ones to avoid unecessary waste of time

I took me a lot of time to complete all the bounties but now I realized that maybe is was not in vain.I learned a lot from this experience about smart contracts, exchanges, partnerships and so on and I'm thinking to start my own community token project.This idea was stuck in my mind for a long time, is there somebody that would like to be the team of a new cryptocurrency, we can share ideas, plan the development, I would love to know what you are looking mainly in a community coin.I want to start everything from scraps since I don't have a huge amount of money, I'm thinking to distribute a huge percent of it to the community and create it with a voting system(the users can decide what is the future of the token) if somebody is interested or have any opinion about it please reply in the thread or contact me in pm.

I'm glad you looking at it this way and you are right, there was quite a lot to be learned.
For quite some time I was also thinking about starting a project of my own but I gave up the idea, something else started to bake my noodle. Something far greater and possibly more important as an overall. In fact this is so huge, that I'm kinda scared of it. However it must be done, sooner or later it simply has to be attempted and hopefully completed. It is the open, secured, pro-publico-bono on chain election system. Chain'o'cracy. True democracy powered by blockchain.

This seems to be the best idea somebody had in a long time in the cryptocurrency market, I've send you a pm with my telegram username, we can talk more there, if anybody wants to contribute as a volunteer for the given project I'm waiting for a pm from you too, let's build a team that will change the face of blockchain.It doesn't matter if you are in this world for a long time or just a begginer, pm/reply here and get ready to learn, improve, overcome.

You have a list of all the airdrops you joined?

Anyone who has done over 700 airdrops and 100 bounties would feel tired. I am not sure about the number but I've also joined many airdrops/bounties and I also realized that many of them won't take off.

[moynul2050]

our experience is definitely not much different, because maybe we might follow some of the same bounty projects.
for example, I joined a signature campaign for a project that I am currently participating in, but in other campaigns such as creating content or social media, we might be joined in the same project.

therefore the current experience is definitely not much different, we more often waste time working on projects that do only fraud. right?

[acholagi]

Because indeed so many frauds that occur at this time make people bored. so it's only natural if they feel bored with the situation. because it does not benefit

[defoman]

I think the only thing that can keep us here now is the belief that the tokens that we are now earning will grow significantly in price after the start of the new bull run. You are not alone and I am familiar with a lot of bounty hunters who have decided to leave their job until the market recovers again. But maybe right now we have a chance to find the pearl, which in time will become a new BTC or ETH.

I have started doing bounties October of 2017. I joined different campaigns like signature, facebook, twitter, etc. There are times that I didn't get any tokens and that is normal already. Some campaigns give me but it is small amount only. Lucky I joined translation campaign and if I'm lucky, the ICO will pay me huge amount of tokens that I can sold at various exchanges.

Aside from doing different campaigns, I'm finding a signature campaign in Services where they are paying in Bitcoin. I know that joining in signature campaigns that pays tokens has risk because there is a chance that they will not pay you that is why I find a signature campaign in Services section. Luckily I found one (my current sig. campaign) and when I got accepted, I stopped what I'm doing in different campaigns because I feel tired too and time wasting for me.

I'm almost the same way as you worked , and now see no future in bounty , I think this type of advertising has become obsolete and now most of the spam goes useful than advertising , I think soon the bounty will just disappear !

[meldrio1]

2017 was very profitable that time, I can earned easily $100 just signing up on airdrops, but now almost airdrops are scam and also the bounties I'm tired of it, but I still believe there are still good bounties, just don't give up keep doing bounties, hold the tokens and wait bull run.

That's right, but I probably didn't joined social media/content creating as much as you did, I was more focused on translation campaigns. The experience overall was awfull but I think I'm give give the campaigns another chance to see what they could provide for me.I will let this thread open because I see that many people are interested about this particular topic.Btw, you guys should take a look on my replies, I've been talking about a new project concept, made by community for community.

-snip- I have a friend who nearly made half a million of dollars by doing multiple bounties throughout that year.

Nearly made..., meaning he did or almost did?  
Sorry for being fussy but I simply cant believe these stories, moreover during 2017. Worst year ever.
OP is the best example, seven hundred projects and only few proved to be something useful, only this small percentage was profitable for him and think how much time it took. Most likely it wasn't worth the trouble, quite significant portion of his life wasted on stupid, spammy telegram groups, chats etc. I have very similar experience, only my sample group is much smaller.
Some hope was put in to KYC, it was believed that it can change something, that dumpers will become less likely to "infest" bounty groups, it obviously failed and nothing has changed. Probably never will but I truly want to be wrong.

He really made that amount of money by doing bounties and 2017 year buy cashing out all the tokens at the peak time, to be a regular bounty Hunter all the time in this forum.

[joseyphil82]

Bounty hunters cares only about the money not the tokens nowadays and they wait to just dump the tokens off ,well on my part I prefer to join a good bounty project that has future so that I can keep the tokens/coins ,I don't join bounties for the money since mining is not profitable anymore

[Kekkins87]

the problem is to find the new coin that can do a big % of price grow...we must look for coins that are not ico or bounty but people are too stupid for this....I regret I did not get bought coins like litecoin,vertcoin or viacoin when they were very very low in 2015...there is a good dose of luck of course, but you must always do your own researches...for example watch Elicoin in livecoinwatch , is not an ICO or bounty... it's a coin with low mc, low supply, PoW whit cpu, no premine, active dev...only trading it on CREX24 for now...do you own researches in the thread in bitcointalk: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3028302.0... people are too stupid for DYOR and got scammed by ICO or bounty...just my 2 cents...hope it helps...cheers

[Abosede]

I guess almost everyone are tired of doing airdrop or doing bounty because it is almost a waste of time,before it is 90% of it that are scam but now it is almost 99% that are scam now,and that make it difficult to get the one out of many that is not a scam,I can only encourage someone out here to do proper research before joining any campaign.

[VieleSind]

IMO, if you're really tired of joining bounty/airdrop so you should find another way to earn money in cryptocurrency world and with this bear market, I think trading is the best choice. For now, joining bounty or investing in ICO project are not good anymore, it's too difficult to earn large amount of money by these old ways but trading is still a really good way to earn.

[mostcrack]

I was a person who likes to take part in bounty and also airdrop. but after a few months I did it, I seemed to be bored. the reason I stopped following the bounty and airdrop was because of uncertain pay, some even got a scam.
I think that following a bounty and also airdrop is just a waste of time, because the payment is not worth it.
but that does not mean I speculate that bounty and airdrop have a negative image, because only in part people or parties do negative things.

[ecnalubma]

We all have the same feelings with current situation and its really hard to make money during this bear season no matter how hard work in doing bounties and task never pays off. Crypto has changed my entire but I'm not giving up on it, its justa matter of patience and later everything will be alright hopefully.

[cizatext]

Bounty and airdrop are almost the same why I say so is because once a project failed or succeede either you took part in they bounty programs or airdrop with become what the result of the project is and your profits depends on the outcome of the project, so giving up is not an option just pray to come across good and legit project. But in all bounty is not a job so don't take it as your lifetime business.

[lizarder]

yes, to deal with the bear market is a little tiring especially if we are trying our luck in the hunter world, because many projects delay or even reduce our allocation because of this or not lapse but make gradual payments every month and it is quite tiring for me but time cannot be changed for bounty hunters who undergo a bounty at the beginning of 2017 must have felt the golden age and for the current conditions we are indeed in a state of decline, my suggestion is to keep following the bounty but if you feel tired better choose a few bounty 1-5 projects enough
