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

[Ojengonggu]

we all feel the same way about bounty campage and airdrop, we are disappointed because maybe some of us are vacuuming for months without activity and some of them are still active, but not like before.
I was also active a few days ago after some time ago I thought we would not know the development of cryptocurrency if we left this forum and not all projects scam, fail, and pay us with their worthless tokens.

Unfortunately you're right with your sentiments, most of projects are just a waste of time thus its hard to continue being a bounty hunter because in the end all your effort wont be paid off.

Last year I already stopped participating in airdrops its not really worth it although its a simple task. I have many shitcoins in my wallet that I accumulated from airdrop and it didnt even had the chance to be listed in any exchanges.

But despite all the bad experiences I dont lose hope still, we just need to find a good project that has a genuine goal and useful coin.

I abandoned airdrops around February last year after I discovered that it doesn't  worth much and though I have received some tokens from airdrops it is not easy to sell them.  I think I have not done bounty either for more than six months now because the last bounty I did for both signatures,  facebook and twitter campaign did not pay me well.  And some of them has closed icos for the past one year now but there are not listed in any exchanges.  Some of them in fact has been abandoned and others has been turned to scam.

These are the reasons too why i quit on bounty hunting yet rewards arent assured and even if you do get the token most of them have no really value
at all which would leave you have no money or profit on the hard work you have done for a project.

It would be better to stick out on joining signature campaigns that do pay out btc where it is somehow give you guaranteed payments
even though its small but it is much more better.

your right  . sig campaigns that pays in btc are more worth it because they pay are oftenly sure compare to bounty or airdrops but the only downside is the pay on btc campaigns are somehow small and i think this also the reason on why many users still prefer to chose bounty even if they know that bounty is pretty risky  but as the saying said  " high risk means higher rewards "  which was verry true indeed   .   i was once an airdrop enthusiasts but i stopped doing them since last year because i  also notice that i dont recieve alot of coins and if ever i recieved some  , those coins can either be useless  ( or no value ) and some can have a litte to less value   .

I have the same feelings. Also i have a feeling that we are in era of IEO and they don't need any bounties. But if i see really good project and it has bounty i am joining it. But it is rarely now.

I would rather prefer to receive small amounts but somehow guaranteed rather than going for those high payout/profits but high risk on not receiving or gaining anything.

Me too, once a bounty hunter but I completely stop long time ago when I'm not already earning good and most of the times the projects I have joined turn out to be scammed.Due to frustration I decide to quit completely.

I just make a conclusion with what you say, so you just active in this forum only if your account joined in bounty campaign or signature campaign? You won't get anything if your goal is money/profit. You may won't know the character of the project because you just see this project is scam or this project is legit. It will be good if you try with yourself because there are some ways to find project scam like this thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5004397.0 and you may won't know the latest information if you active just for make a comment. Find the knowledge first and you will anything.

[bering]

Tired because increasing number of scam ICO's is normal because currently to find legit projects who will give decent amount of money became too hard and i think every bounty hunter feel such as that but don't expect more or to make living from this jobs because with unpredictable salary you even cannot feed your family from bounty earnings and don't only see this forum for earnings money because besided that plenty of knowledges related to crypto you can get from this forum

The faith in bounty campaigns was restored for me with my participation in ANY campaign, for a 2 week campaign I received 380k tokens = 320$, so I will continue to search for good campaigns, if you find one don't hesitate to reply here or pm me.

Is this the campaign you're talking about? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5126333.0

Seems like their buy order is very low atm. You got very lucky imo, as you can see that 1 BTC is enough to cause this coin to dumped really hard (assuming everyone dumps their tokens asap). https://www.coinexchange.io/market/ANY/BTC

A decent campaign that I know recently is Veil. However, there are too many participants on that campaign at the moment, so even if you were accepted, the chance to get a decent amount of Veil is probably small. The coin is currently being traded on several exchanges, and last time I checked they were rated at $0.2 or so per coin. Not a bad price.

Yes, this is the bounty I participated in and I decided to take profits.They had simple exchange opened for a few days (exchange the coins directly for btc), Veil seem like a nice project right now, thank you for your suggestion but I am mainly focused on translation campaigns and they don't have my language included.

Yes im tired of doing bounties because of not recieving payments for almost 6 months, but the truth is bounty campaigns is my way to provide the needs of my family, payments coming from bounty campaigns is a good source.of.extra income. So i wont give up in joining bounties.

[Yoshinoya]

I have the same feelings. Also i have a feeling that we are in era of IEO and they don't need any bounties. But if i see really good project and it has bounty i am joining it. But it is rarely now.

So far I have seen projects carrying out the IEO on the market or pre-sales, for a long time they usually held bounty campaigns.
But if not, I think that might have a negative impact on sales. Because that can cause few investors to know.

That's very unfortunate. Things have changed and getting reward in a bounty is like having a 1% chance out of 100. I'm also still trying my luck but I'm not that enthusiastic as before because it's painful whenever I realize my 3-5 months of hardwork and spending almost 2 hours just to make all my posts decent but it was ll for nothing.

You only spend two hours of posting for your bounty ?  How much post did you make on that time frame ? I hope you arent post bursting but bounties arent strict as campaign that pays in bitcoin but anyways i feel you both , because the glow of bounties and airdrops are instantly faded  over the past two year course  . i stop doing airdrop for a while, i think i will comeback soon when i obtain good information about their comeback  .

[ILScoin]

The process where by you do a bounty for a very long period of time and no much reward,  paying in pennies and some of the project ended up being a scam brings about discouragements in doing other bounty,  I know lots of bounties that I've done in the past that ended up paying pennies or scammed

[Pagri]

Personally I am also tired of participating in bounties, and not only because of the difficulty that means currently obtaining good profits from it, but because after a couple of years of being involved in this type of activities I have found that everything is very repetitive and mentally exhausting, especially when you realize you need to do twice as much work as before to get less than half of what you used to earn.

Fortunately, I was able to invest some of my profits adequately in the good times of the bounties and today I do not feel as much pressure for profit as in the beginning.

In my whole bitcointalk experience, I have only had 1 bad bounty experience,,, where the campaign paid me once, but never for the next few weeks of my posts. Then,,, I spent many months with 1 bounty manager who through no fault of their own the 2 projects until today are not listed, and never reply any of our messages. That I do not consider bad, it was just a learning.

But in between all those, I only signed up for those services I really enjoy and use. This means I did not jump in and out of campaigns, I just stayed with them until they ended,,, or I did not have one for months until I found one I liked.

So if you want higher than 1% chance of rewards, you have to change your mindset.

[Darker45]

Well, you will have to accept the fact that bounty hunting does not guarantee you anything. Right from the get-go, the campaign you are jumping into may or may not succeed at all. So you are basically aware that all the efforts you will exert may simply end up into the garbage bin. Especially when it comes to airdrop, don't expect any good that will come out of it.

As far as my experiences are concerned, a great many of them ended up as learning experiences to scrutinize more the campaigns I wish to be part of. Add to it the fact that campaigns nowadays are not as vibrant as it was in 2017 or earlier. And scams are really getting out of control.

You said one shouldn't Expect any good to come out of airdrops, you think airdrop is that bad? I joined data token airdrop and make 70$ out of it this year ,same as blockstamp airdrop which is now 1$ per coin and I have 250 blockstamps which is 250$ from airdrop friend,I think its all about choosing skills,I join airdrops that are already trading only
