Is bounty campaign profitable in 2019 or no?

[terencio]

It's too early to conclude where only in  the month of August, we know that crypto brings a lot of surprises and I hope before this year end, bounties are all bountiful.

Bounty campaigns have always been useful, but for 2019 it doesn't seem to me any changeable, the situation will be the same such as the old years. That is the right beginning of the year we have fronted of many scam projects, but now most of them are successful projects than we expected. But to be frank, there are still scam projects, l hope this scam will not interrupt the investor confidence during upcoming years. Otherwise, the trustworthy projects will stay under the radar because of the pressure of scammed average people. Really experienced investors never fall to the traps in crypto industry.

Though I haven't done much bounty work this year, but I think bounty hunting still very profitable if you are able to pick the right one. Some hunters work a lot but they waste their time on bad projects, but some people only do 10-15 bounties and they earn huge money. So, it depends on you actually.

[94K]

Though I haven't done any bounty work this season, I do still believe there are some bounty campaigns which have been profitable in 2019. You just have to pick the right bounty.

[3DBrushes]

In my opinion, bounty 2019 is not the same as 2017 when the selection step is very important. If you choose a good bounty, you will definitely have money, but it will not be as much as 2017, becase of small budget and too many competitors.

More than compitators, it's the fake projects that are killing the bounty markets. It us just a waste of time to participate in each and every bounty programs. A single program which pays is more than enough.

[swiftbits]

It would take time do decide or know if it's profitable or not, coins from ICO is not yet priced at the market, some coins would take 6months before taking into the market, and usually, there are so many fake projects here. But as I can see, bounties are much profitable this year than the last but we're still at the middle of the year.

Completely agreed. If we compare year 2017/2018 with 2019,, then we can see a large number of bounty campaign  were scam or fail as because of bitcoin lost it's price. But nowadays bitcoin far closure to recover its price and that's why, everything might be same as before 

If you want bounty to be profitable like 2017, you should expect altcoin to grow just like 2017. When altcoin starts to rise, investors will pay attention to altcoin and invest in new projects.

[Plinteng]

not everyone says that and not all projects in 2019 are unprofitable, we are in a testing phase, the market tends to be unstable and many projects end in fraud. but I don't think we need to keep complaining, you better stay focused with this work and don't be pessimistic under any circumstances

[Thomas-s]

I think curenty difficult to find projects that can provide benefits, since 2018 many projects are scamming and making investors' attention down, so projects that are truly profitable sometimes fail to raise funds and bounty hunters cannot get benefit from their work

many projects are scammed with bounty hunters and therefore many people quit from participating in the bounty. Because of this, projects receive less marketing and, accordingly, fewer people learn about a new project

[Xalata]

This question will have a relative answer because if it goes on well with someone, they will say it is going on well. As for me, I will say this year has been a good year for me because I'm enjoying a lot.

[wanted sliter]

Yes, I think so
If you consider bounty as fulltime job, you might not get enough money to pay daily life
But doing it just in free time, I think it still a very value job. Even not being paid as much as before, but basicly you have to do very little compare to the money you get. So keep calm and continue

[gurunanakji777]

Yes its not profitable so far in 2019 as compare to year 2017. I have joined several bounty campaigns this year but could not make good money from none of the bounties I participated this year. Yes I agree with you and Its totally my opinion according to my this year earnings from bounties. If market conditions will change in coming months one can make good money again from bounties.

[EdenDice]

Bounty campaigns are very much profitable this year. We already passed some biggest rewarding bounty campaigns like the Velic, Miracletele, Harmony, SERO, GMAT, MITx and so on. All of these bounty paid huge money to the hunters. If you already missed those then you can start from now. This year we will see more good bounty campaigns coming through!

Of course there are some bounty profitable but we compare with last years, if we compare the number of successful bounty compared to that failed.

Sorry to disagree with you. I would request you, please compare between the 2018 year and this year.  You will find that this year, there was many successful bounty than the previous year. Even most of the reputed projects got success this year, actually last year Ethereum, Bitcoin price was high that's why people earned good money from bounties but this year also very profitable, to me, 2019 is the winner here.

We must understand that bounty is a form of marketing and will continue to be profitable coupled with this year's improved market. I understand that some tokens you earn at bounties may not fair well at exchanges but then, there are other bounties that pay in btc too. You can find those and participate in them

[PuertoLibre]

Bounty campaigns don't give enough tokens worth to continue the job for the project. Last years are the worst in terms of profitability of bounty rewards, I definitely advise to avoid the shady bounty campaigns. It will be the hardest part to find and join the bounty campaign but better than get scammed. Saving your time is in your hands, the different activities are considered than wasting the spare time in the bounty campaigns.

[Distinctin]

yes that's right, in 2019 there were no profitable bounty projects for bounty hunters, so far I've seen this.
but it seems that the prize hunters are still optimistic about this work, the proof is that there are still many new projects participated by thousands of participants, I personally hope this year will be the same as 2017 where prize hunters can get a lot of benefits from the projects they are promoting.

That's too harsh, maybe there are only few but I can tell you there are also profitable bounty projects one of them is the Harmony (ONE).

Bounties are still profitable. Depending on the projects.  There are some with a huge allocation with good rewards. A lot of hunters think in 2019 there won't be profitable ones. But there are still good bounties with good rewards.

[Danslip]

If the prices are low and bounty managers refuse to pay the bounty hunters then I leave the bounty campaign as a participant,unfortunately. The promotional offers are there as a agreement between bounty members and team. Scam projects always have been a barrier for honest bounty participants, teams should be able to state the difference on different bounty hunting platforms.

I would be wrong comparing it to what is obtainable in 2017/2018, this year is a different year too and we understand why bounties are not that profitable anymore. But I have been lucky with some, though holding paid off than selling immediately after distribution

The problem is to add more sell orders through bounty rewards. Hunters sell immediately the distributed bounty earnings no matter how many percent price was dropped. Team of the project understood this and they delay the whole bounty timetable because of the community treatment by bounty participants.

[Handsome Boy]

in my opinion from 2018 until now (2019) bounty campaign has not been profitable for me, because from 2018 I don't get income from bounty campaign, but I still participate in bounty campaign, because in my opinion this is caused by bad market conditions at the moment and I hope when the market begins to recover, then all the coin that I get when participating in a bounty campaign will have a price and of course it will give me income, so that I can get income from the work that I did in 2018 until now.

[buyasicru]

it was a good company, but the statistics are too bad. 1 bounty from 20 brings some profit. need to wait for the arrival of the altcoin season

you can choose carefully and pick 5 good ones every month)
