Bounty hunting is past it's glory days

[ninja811]

Yes, a lot of bounty campaigns have now appeared on the cryptocurrency market that do not fulfill their promises, despite the fact that you put a lot of time and effort into their implementation.
But I continue to participate in them as there are still good developers whom you can trust.

Of course, the bounty campaign is still profitable. But don't expect too much, many projects are scam and fraud compared to promising projects now. We must analyze and choose with full consideration, do not let your hard work is not appreciated. Choose projects that have been listed on the exchange, working products, if possible choose weekly payments and the payment is BTC or Eth.

Whoever that said this is correct base on what was attainable in the past, we have gained in the past just by bounting and airdropping but these day you hardly see a good project to participate in their bounty campaign to gain profits, rather mist of these projects tend to scam potential investor's who are ready to invest. I can still vividly remember what happened to my bounty campaigns those days compare to now.

Good devs are always there you just need to spend some time researching the project before you decide to join.

The problem with most forum posters is that they want the money here and now and will jump on the first offer they see. They don't care who the team is or what the project's goals are. They don't even care if it's a scam or not. Later they get scammed and it's looking for a shoulder to cry on time.

My experience so far with bounty this year have been bad and it is not as profitable as it used to be. Mainly bounty hunters don't really get good projects that will pay and those that pay just pay a penny which is not worth the time and energy put into the work.

In my opinion, bounty will gradually change their appearance and transform into something new. Such as for example social mining from the company DAO Maker.

Peak Bounty project in 2017.
Until now it has not happened yet if it is said that the heyday of Bounty has passed  "Yes could be".
Even if you read a lot of topics in this forum, many people are leaving Bounty because they have no advantage anymore.
But in my opinion, it's not the right decision because the Altcoin season can definitely come back again.
I'll keep trying to earn a living through the Bounty project and I'm sure the moment of success will definitely return.

Throughout mid-2018 until early 2019 it did require a lot of patience. There are so many projects that do not develop or even die, it is not clear finally. The reason is the unfavourable market situation. Many bounty campaigns have extended periods, allocations have been cut, distribution schedules and listings are unclear, token prices are worthless, not according to hard work and initial agreements. Well, that's the risk, right? There are good times, there are hard times.
At present, many more promising projects have begun, bounty hunters are finding their passion again, hopefully, this is a good sign. As long as we are selective in choosing bounties, there are still benefits.

lately it has been a very difficult time for bounty campaign participants because they have to receive payments that do not match their performance for several months to promote the projects they are taking part in ... 2019 is an unfortunate year for bounty participants because it does not apply like in the past 2017 .. but in my opinion this is not the end of the glory period that we have achieved in previous years .. and rest assured that bounty campaign participants will receive back in its gloryday in the near future ..

[timfish]

Bounty hunting isn't paying as it used to be before because they're lots of bounty hunters now which makes the rewards less and there are also lots of scam bounties which wastes your time. If you can thoroughly search and screen your bounties then it would pay a little more.

I think I strictly agree with your point. The fact that bounty hunters are not making profits doesn't signify that everything about bounty is a loss. There are still good bounty campaigns out there.

maybe if the price of bitcoin returns to success, it will be like in 2017. at that time bitcoin was in its heyday and many people were interested in cryptocurrency, which resulted in the acquisition of rewards from the bounty program. indeed we should not be discouraged in dealing with conditions like this, because later it will definitely get what we expect, and I think the bullrun will come soon

Before 2017, Bounty Hunters had good opportunities for making money, and therefore many forum users considered this activity the main source of their income.  But the situation has changed dramatically, because new projects are very difficult to develop and therefore not a single project pays the rewards that were promised.

[ninja811]

It seems to me that at that moment when by the end of 2019 the market will finally recover, participation in bounty campaigns will become a very profitable business.
Of course, when the market dipped, many players refuse to participate in campaigns.
I personally know that after the failure there should be a take-off and that after participation in the bounty campaigns in the future it will pay off.

The appropriate answer is actually to move on from bounties because the truth about it is that bounties are not as profitable as before. The reason for this is because 99.9% of project in the space right now are nothing but scam so a very few of them still seems promising.

I think it won't be possible anymore to make bounty hunting as main job for living.
We should have our primary income from other resources, bounty is just an additional income.
Bounty was very profitable in the past because there were many projects raised with huge funds.

You can still make money from bounty companies. And sometimes quite well. It is only necessary to choose projects more carefully. Ideally, it is the coin which is already on the exchanges which pay in Bitcoin or Ethereum

[Jorge158]

I still hope that after states begin to massively regulate the activities of ICOs, they can again recover in their popularity. Now, of course, this activity is not going through its best times, but even this year it is gradually rising compared to last year. Therefore, do not despair, good times for bounty hunters can still be ahead.

2018 was not one of the most fruitful seasons for projects and their ICOs hence bounty hunters suffered the same fate. 2019 is far better because the market is in good shape now with most of the projects undergoing IEOs. Remember, the success of every bounty program depends on the success of the project behind it hence ones the IEOs are successful, bounty programs become glorious.

It depends on the market situation. If things are going great and crypto is raising,  a lot of bounty campaigns are ending up with great success by bringing profit to participants. The reversed situation is on the falling market.

Currently bounty campaigns require more effort, and need to be selected more carefully. You will still get a good income if you invest time and research. While profits are not the same as 2017, you will still make money from it.

It's a risk but there is a chance of high reward if you get paid from a project which is successful. It's just like gambling where you are risking your money but don't expect to make a living out of it. Unlike gambling here you only give out your time but nowadays there aren't many good projects so it's like wasting your time nowadays.
