DOES IEO PROTECT BOUNTY HUNTERS ?

[olumyd]

Most members of this forum have participated in one bounty or the other and must have been shocked by the project team either by not paying them, payment reduced to $0 after 16 weeks of hard job or the token/coin does not get listed or the project is a scam entirely.

Can we now agree that the IEO projects will protect the interests of the bounty hunters ?

 I guess in a way it does, assuming all the aforementioned problems were not actually due to the laxities of the team itself and brought forward to IEO events. The only way I think it helps the bounty hunter is the listing - if they do get to raise the amount they are looking for.

[Landak]

no, the IEO has nothing to do with the bounty hunter. even though the IEO was successful, bounty hunters did not necessarily get the same results. some even decided to dismiss the bounty program unilaterally and some were unclear [not paid or delay]. so the IEO doesn't protect bounty hunters. Bounty hunters must always be careful.

IEO does not protect bounty hunters. It doesn't mean that the bounty hunters are going to be paid or not. I think the risks are the same for bounty hunters. The only advantage is that the coin is going to be traded on an exchange.

Yeah agree, the only advantage is that coins can be traded directly.

There are still some good ICOs, but it is true that there are some scams as well. So an IEO can offer an advantage in that they do most of the checking for us, so we can be much more confident that an IEO is not a scam. Beyond that though, once the scams are weeded out, I think that ICOs are probably better. One big problem with IEOs is that the coins for everyone are already on the exchange... which will likely lead to worse dumping as soon as the coin is tradeable.

There is no bounties on IEO so nope, there is no work for bounty hunters on IEO. I don't understand with that protect word as you said OP.

What i know is IEO protect investors, so the investors don't need to worry to get scammed because the IEO usually hosted by a big exchange like binance and huobi

There is, you can check in the Bounties (Altcoins)

some of the bounties, I search are

BOUNTY]$350K🤑WORTH XCT TOKEN REWARD FOR 6 WEEK 🔥IDAX IEO LISTED    
[Bounty] GEXAN - BLOCKCHAIN LOTTERY! 60 000$ — Monthly Distribution ✅ IEO ✅
[BOUNTY 1M tokens] Blockium (BOK) IEO - we ARE financial gaming

I have not check the project above yet, these are just example and I am not recommending to participate on it.

Sorry for the late reply, TIL there is bounties too for IEO but most of them are not hosted by big exchange. I'm curious is the IEO will success or not.

So, if you are bounty hunters it's better to join bounty that have IEO and hosted by big exchange, for more safe.

[wolizidan]

IEOs are great and secure.

[sulendra12]

Protect? "Yes" at least coin that you are following already on the exchanges so you can sell it afterwards. But, does the reward worth it? That's debatable, since it's the same as other coins that it depends on demands also exchanges are big factor of how "good" the price would be once IEO is finish.

I can see IEO's being safer for investors than ICO's but if an IEO is going to get listed on top exchanges like Binance that is enough publicity for them and I don't see those startups putting up bounty offers.
The exchanges will do the promotion work for these IEO's and if the exchange is small maybe they will give bounties for promotion but I don't know how this is going to work out for bounty hunters in the future as more people and regulation come to this space.

IEO really brings safety and a lot of benefits to investors, for bounty hunters, IEO will bring them safety or not, this is something that hunters never know because the IEO of projects is always kept secret, it is not public when it can lead to a large number of hunters starting to cheat. And for that reason, participating in bounty campaigns is also very dependent on luck, almost impossible to know whether the project will have an IEO or not until the final stages but at least, the emergence of the IEO will make us know that we will not waste time and effort, the reward will certainly come

not after the IEO is completed, because the actual price is determined after being registered in an exchange and can be traded freely. because it is possible, the assets owned have a value greater than the IEO price or the price may be cheaper than the IEO price set by the developer.

[Jose Mourinho]

The fact is that many IEOs also provide bounties so as long as there are new projects, of course we can get earnings, devs. of course understand that bounty hunters help the success of a project so that they always give a portion of at least 1% for bounty hunters.

[JayCue]

IEO will only guarantee the bounty hunters that a project's coin/token will have an exchange so we can trade this coin once we receive this bounty rewards.
But it does not guarantee whether or not the bounty manager will pay us or will they become greedy.

I know, but once on IEO the price is "fixed" until IEO is finish.

That will happen once IEO is finish like I said earlier.

Well yes, actually no. Sometime newly developed tokens that didn't use bounty campaign is also having a great success until today. You would think bounty hunters could achieve the marketing, yet in reality no.

IEO will only guarantee the bounty hunters that a project's coin/token will have an exchange so we can trade this coin once we receive this bounty rewards.
But it does not guarantee whether or not the bounty manager will pay us or will they become greedy.

It will depend first whether the project will be successful, it should be listed in a good trusted exchange to more possibility of being successful, and then if the company will be truthful enough to paid bounty hunters in time. IEO lessened the hassle of waiting in exchange and gives even a hope that bounty hunters will really earn as long as the projects company will paid readily their bounty hunters in time since some early investors who took too much bonus in presale may dumps it.

does it mean that the IEO actually does not guarantee the absence of fraud? and what you describe is very likely to happen, so everything remains back to the seriousness and honesty of the project maker. ICO or IEO will still not be able to escape the problem, just a matter of time.

Bounty reward from where? Are IEOs beginning to also use hunters that I am not aware of? Please don’t confuse ICO and IEO, most projects that go on IEO don’t bother using ICO to raise fund again because they already meet up with their hardcap the moment they enter an exchange, which gives no room for them to further explore an option of hunters.

How would you benefit from a coin that you don’t have access to hold because some of us that are willing to purchase it don’t even get the chance to successfully do so due to the queue that is always ready to buy it anytime IEO projects gets launched, most especially on Binance.

protect from what ? Ieo does not protect anything but they will only protect their own business from scammers and hackers . They also protect their business from the authorities in which they will get certification and approvement from the local government so that this will make thier business more legal .  

Speaking of protect , bounty hunters dont get any protection from someone else but bounty hunters should only protect them selves from those fraud and scam projects

How can bounty hunters protect themselves from fraud if they don't their bounty campaign is a fraud or not. Only thing we can do is to enter a campaign where the campaign manager has a good trust score and research the ICO/IEO team background to see if they are legit and hope they honor their word.

[5ensei]

There is no protection for bounty hunters, it is like the wild wild west and they treat bounty hunters like free slave workers. Especially now as most new tokens are worthless so giving away more to dilute the market is something they will refuse to do

[Adriano2010]

I really don't think is a protection, to have protection coin should be sent before to an Escrow and after that Escrow to release coins to bounty hunters after they do their job.

[Review Master]

When bitcoin price was increased rapidly than many ico came to enter the market and started bounty campaign to promote their ico. I think, everyone is agree with me that those bounty campaign period/time was golden time for bounty hunters.And when the Bear market started, more ico became unsuccessful or started scaming in the market. Also the bounty campaign weren't so effective for ico. As an alternative IEO came into the market to choose the best ico and started IEO to help the ico/project to collect sufficient fund.
After all, I hope everyone will also agree with me that IEO doesn't protect Bounty Hunters.

[Irazzzta]

in my opinion, maybe a little guarantee and protect bountyhunter. because if a project uses IEO services, more investors will guarantee the sustainability of the project. so dev can pay for bountyhunter. importantly, project coins will definitely be listing in the near future. Unlike ICO, listing planning is still unclear.
