LESS REWARD

[jessyj48]

Gone are the days when you can earn thousands of dollars promoting projects things have change totally now you have to go extra miles to achieve reasonable rewards from bounties unless the glorious days like 2017 bull returns

[Little Mouse]

Bounty rewards died in 2018. I don't think those crazy thousands of dollar rewards will ever happen again, like they did in 2017. The market is getting smarter and no one wanna pay hundreds or thousands dollars for spamming in Twitter, the profit of which is zero. Only quality content will be rewarded.

I do not think that. developers need to promote their ico. Those sharing on twitter or facebook will help ico know more. And you say quality articles. The development team spends a greater amount of rewards for writing articles and they closely scrutinize those articles.

Not true, ico don't get huge promotion from facebook and twitter, not even more than 1% which I think don't even worth the bounty rewards allocation for this two campaign. The allocation should be lower for facebook and twitter campaign.

What the OP says is time consuming. If a bounty hunter does not use all the time for crypto, but only as an additional income, then he does not have time to trade, contests and the like. For more, just not the time. Being a full-time bounty hunter is very risky now. Thus, many participate in bounty campaigns for a few hours/day and then sell rewards, if any.

The reward might increase when the bull run approaches and also the scam, casualties and so on might also increase. We are having serious down turns of bounties project but my view is even if they start coming up again there should be a criteria to be able to organise a bounty campaign

[arpon11]

I have participated in many bounty and sometimes I do believe that one project that reward you can cover all the effort that was not rewarded in the past and that is what really happened to me in early 2018! I promoted this tokens called "united trader" and the rewards I got from this tokens makes me to forgot all the projects that I participated in and some of them turned to scam and some are now become valueless.  I will say to get a good reward you have to look and do good research on the bounty you want to participate as many of them out there are going to disappointing you as some have disappointed me.

[Boombull]

You're saying the obvious truth. Bounty earning nowadays is damn too small and the premium place on bounty hunters is reducing everyday and I think we don't need to put more into it. Some projects will still delay the time of distribution which is not always in favor of bounty hunters.

[mr.robot8]

with the new points system merit, the number of high-ranking bounty hunters is unlikely to increase, all we need to do is pay a little more attention and choose only those projects that really have some chance of success

[oriontab]

Bounties are really not a privilege since bounty hunters expend resources to promote a campaign. The value of reward obviously has reduced significantly as there is less money in the space generally. Things may improve as the market pick up some bullish momentum.

[De_nis]

I dont see that quantaty of bounty hunters increasing, but rewards is really not good, but it touchs not all projects, it is still possible to find good projects, waiting for growing market - everything will change

Bounty hunting was one of the perfect job in 2016 and 2017, i made great ammount of Money with bounties, quit my job, started to work at home and i was getting richer.. Unfortunately everything turned in very bad ways and 2018 we had crush in the cryptocurrency market and ICO's.. If you check today there is no bounty program i would join, usually they never reach the caps, also if they reach the cap their coins would worth just nothing. Bounty hunting work officially finished.. It is very sad bad it is true..

[thinkright]

I guess those who cry abounty bounty payment are those doing it for a living. The moment you start promoting a project means you trust them to deliver, many at time these tokens we receive from bounty drops way low which can be as an opportunity to buy more and a expect the price to recover. It does matter how long it's going take, just be patient.

[adzino]

Lets stop chasing after those ICO bounties. Yeah, the rewards are less or reducing because the rewards are limited but the amount of people will to take those bounty programs are very high compared to the rewards. Thus, the developers decided to reduce the rewards per person as this will help them spend the same amount but this them they will have more people to advertise for them. If everyone stops accepting those low payments, they will be bound to give more rewards to the people.
Trust me, spend your time doing something else. You will earn better.

[dabenko]

Participating n bounty should be an eye opener. It can help you to know the good projects from those that are not good or outright scam. Although this is mainly for those who can truly decern properly.
Get it right and use the opportunity to venture into trading.

Yes, it's right. In fact, what happens is the opposite, because there are so many accounts that have ranks being permanently banned. What the OP says is true, the rewards presented is small. Indeed, there were those who gave so many reward, up to 10 million usd in the form of tokens, but the project look so unclear.

[powerman24]

The  bounty rewards are less but there are plenty other opportunities to increase your number of tokens as you suggested by trading or by investing and buying cheap from the dumpers etc.

It is no news that rewards of bounty campaigns are getting lesser by each passing day. Many still feel that the reward will increase when bull run come but i doubt if there will be any changes to the reward because developers and teams have now adopt the less reward as a strategy to protect the price of their token. Many bounty hunters are crying everyday for a better reward which will not likely come. I see bounty rewards more as a privilege than a right. Many at times if the token has been listed before the reward was given out,there may even be a reduction especially when the token is doing well in the market. The question to my fellow hunters is that, why cry over spill milk? when you can actually produce as much as you want. Do you know you can make much more than your bounty rewards trading some of those token you have promoted. I have made nothing less than 300% of my bounty rewards trading some of the tokens i have promoted,one of such token is Vanta (VNT). I made 500% of the money i invested participating in vanta trading competition on Allbit for 34 days which is 2000% of the bounty reward that i was given,why many were complaining of the bounty rewards,i was smiling to my portfolio. Why limit yourself to bounty rewards when there are other areas you can explore. The more you waste your time crying over bounty rewards the more you will be blind to other opportunities around the project. As bounty hunter my advice is
      1).Take time to monitor closely the progress of the project you are promoting to see other opportunity apart from the bounty reward
      2).Be ready to invest when opportunity present itself.

With the number of bounty hunters increasing by the day,the reward is more likely to reduce than to increase. The earlier will accept that and move on the better for everyone of us. We should understand that, crying for unrealistic rewards can make developers and teams to promised unrealistic rewards.

indeed there is no point in crying over unrealistic rewards from the bounty, many people believe that bullrun will change the future of the bounty to be more profitable, but in fact it does not necessarily happen, rather than crying over the results of bounties it is better to trade from the bounties that have been followed so that we can profit from the trade

Buying cheap is one of the easiest things to do. If you do believe that token has real potential, wait for the dumpers and you can get that dirty cheap as compared to their ICO prices. You just need to look out for promising projects.

A bounty hunter should not regret joining a certain project because he has all the time to think about it before joining. No one is forced to join in their campaign. And because there are hunters who just signed up easily, many projects are taking that advantage. It is the bounty hunter's responsibility on whatever he will encounter on this project.

Developers still spend money in promoting on these media means but not as it used to be back then in 2017 like he said, and because of the present market situation as regards scams going on in ICO, the social media is becoming less effective tool in promoting these ICOs because many viewer simply ignore anything that has to do with ICO.

The means of promoting it is not the issue, but the content of what is being promoted is what becomes less interesting, as people no longer want take the risk involved in ICO, the only hope I have for bounty hunting is that IEO see a chance that will make it necessary to engage the services of Bounty hunters.

It was early 2018, but the scenerio has changed a lot. You can't say holding is a good strategy for token rewards from bounty campaign. I too think that one good result cam really give a lot of profit.

I always thought that you should deep investigate each project before taking part in it. Even if this coin dumps after the first exchange listing, you can buy some coins to make huge profit in the future, great post by the way.
