Pissed at bounty campaigns since late 2018

[jhongzjhong]

Well, you as a bounty campaign participation pursuant must be mindful of the signature/bounty campaigns to join with. It is very easy to check the reviews and ask your fellow community members what are the campaigns better to join with. I personally join a lot of campaigns already. Some are scams, some are not successful and some gave me very satisfying profits and I loved it. You just have to learn from this experience and for you to avoid to ranting again, before joining a campaign, remember to ask your friends about it.

Please, learn more about how to analyze a good bounty and you will never regret it.
The different thing that is so difficult to determine the best bounty caused by so many scammers these days.

It seems like you have a hard time diffirentiating good ICOs and obvious scam projects just like those one day shutdown case. There are also a lot of good bounties up there but dont come inside it without having any background check or youll repeat the history itself.

I know a good bounty when I see one. Made tens of thousand dollars back in 2017.

If you're still have faith in bounty, take a look on some IEO or STO bounties. Not sure if they're good ones but at least you're less likely to be scammed.

Thanks! I'll do this.

I'm just ranting. I have participated in three consecutive ICO bounty campaigns: the first one was finished along with the ICO but then the ICO changed heads and then they stiffed the bounty participants and just completely ignored everyone. The second campaign was just blah, nothing. No communication, there's even no ICO scheduled to happen! The third one just completely shut down in one day, they removed their LinkedIn page too.

Things were indeed a lot different before the massive bullrun of 2017.

Anyone thinking of joining bounties, don't rely on them.

This happens when crypto market is down so you projects also not going to make any profits are there is stop the project without mentioning when they are going to resume their bounty campaigns. We should know that this is possible with all the bounty campaign so it is not to be considered as source of income at least you need to you have the knowledge which bounty you should avoid and participate.

Yes, bounties shouldn't be relied on much, the possibility of a success is always very low. Even at that some bounties are still good and have yielded good result though such bounties are scares these days that's why you should carefully select your bounties.

Yes, it makes no sense projects collect millions of dollars and then simply ignore the hunters and investors remove and block them in telegrams. So many scammers now. For example, WPP Energy 60 m $ Scam.

joining a bounties program is indeed very difficult, moreover the world crisis is happening in a related country that allows developers to only take investor funds, this is a problem experienced so far. always make in-depth research so that we are not stuck in a scams project that will only waste time

I have to say that you had a very bad run with bounties.  I agree that there have been a sharp drop in good campaigns, this is becasue of the market.
But also the most difficult part is research before joining. You say that one campaign did not even have an ICo in the end, then join only those ICOs which already have raised some amount to have higher chance of payment.

It looks like you don't know how to analyze a good bounty, have you seen the latest bounty that called harmony? even the telegram participants gets more than 0.1 btc in a month for easy work.

" Harmony" was one of those very good campaigns, but those who got in, were lucky because they got into Binance launchpad. No one could have know this before it happened.

[cryp24x]

Not all Bounty is like that. It is true that most of the bounty or ICO is really is not in good shape right now and they are struggling because of lack of funds. Not all are a scam too, investors just don't support them that is why they fail. What we need to do is to research and analyze them so that we know what bounty will be supported by the investors. I don't rant because I am the one who decides if I will do the bounty or not. If it will be successful then it will be very good but if it will not, then I will do the next one.

[pedpedped101]

Amidst so many scam bounty or projects, we still have some reasonable ones. I was surprised that despite all that has happened in the crypto space, despite the level of bear market, despite the increased scam rate and despite how investors have been discouraged from investing, some projects still succeed immensely.

If they collected $60M and then disappear.  But how true can it be that they collect that much. Listing the coin isn't going o be an issue for them. Those ICO who just collected less than a million must have been wandering around looking for more to scam.

We have to be more aware when choosing campaigns than before.

Right, now I just take a look on campaign that running by trusted people like sapta or parodium. Since they have a good feedback, I believe they will investigate the project first before accept and running campaign.

Still not enough actually, there are good bounty managers with high trust ratings before which their campaign ends begin scam too.

[tabas]

I guess you have learned from it already that don't depend too much with bounty campaigns anymore. We are not living anymore on 2017 but we are more aware of these fake projects, ICOs and bounties that they run on the forum. Bounty hunters doesn't have a choice but to test their luck if those projects will work for them. Some hunters find a jackpot but most of them doesn't have that luck anymore unlike the glory of 2017 where everybody celebrates with their profits there.

[gurunanakji777]

I somehow agree with you. As you are a senior member you might have good experience in bounties & participated in several campaigns till date and made good money too. But due to the bearish trend most of the projects get scammed or failed in this period and you should be very choosy in terms of doing any bounty do only bounties that run by genuine bounty managers that pays you earlier as well when you joined their campaign. When I join bounty I always look for high rank bounty manager.

Most ico projects end with failure after 2017.

The reason is simple, past experiences. Lots of ico's raised millions of dollars which didn't produce anything and lost most of the value. If you lose %90 of your investment with an ico would you invest anything else? I won't and also investors won't. So because they are not investing into ICO's, they are failing and bounties are getting no value at all.

[rosezionjohn]

Almost all bounty hunters had similar experience last year. It was a really bad time to participate, I've also got some measly rewards after months of promoting. It's been months since I last joined one, I might start again soon if the market maintains its upward trend.

[Classica35]

Gone are the days that we were in serious bearish trend. It seemed then that things were not going to work out well. The story has now changed, but not to everyone.
Those who saw the opportunities ahead and still persisted with good analytical knowledge are getting good outcome.
It is not as if all projects are bad. Do your research and you will see that there is still hope.

[clipto]

It is true, that the bounty incomes have dropped science the beginning of 2018, but I believe that the market is recovering and we will see another massive wave of profitable bounty programmes in the nearest future.

[qomariah95]

That's what I feel now. I don't participate in many bounties right now. Maybe it's because many projects don't pay bounty participants which makes me feel I don't want to participate in many bounties. I only partnered in one project. Because I do not expect fully for income in the bounty.

indeed 2018 is different from 2017 the new ico project they are too ignoring bounty participants not to mention the fake projects that are very deceptive to people and detrimental to the time of the bounty participants so I think following the present gift is a waste of time if you choose the wrong project

In addition to the sensational Harmony, there are a lot of interesting and promising bounty programs.just need to constantly look for and choose the best.

[cabron]

Things changed so much unlike the days of 2017. There were still campaigns that pays about $800 by the time the campaign ends. I think because tokens doesn't get listed on exchange fast and bounty tokens aren't distributed also just as the exchange list the token. This time the team make sure the bounty participants doesn't dumps their token the first.
