I do not do this every day, but last night I checked all my bounty hunting files from social media, signature and article marketing, I am very disappointed, only 5% of my bounty campaigns proved to be successful, what I mean successful is it's worth the profit after many months of the campaign.

One disappointing side of it is the projects that I thought are legit are the one that turns out to be scams and the project that I thought will not turn out to be good turns to be profitable.

Things are not good in bounty campaign at this point of time, what proves to be a source of excitement to bounty hunters is now the agony of bounty hunters

Till now I participated in many project's campaigns. 10%of them were scam, 20% of projects not paid rewards since months, and 50% of projects distributed on time but at this time the price is too low.
Only 20% of project's token price is stable and giving good profits.
Let's hope future bounties will give good returns.

I don't see that it's going to happen that soon, bounty hunters are now at its worse, what makes it worse are big projects that turn out to be bad those who generate millions of funds are running away and those bounty rewards that you expect to claim and trade are being locked.

There's no improvement in bounty hunting, ICO bounty managers are not doing their best to upgrade the condition of bounty hunting, they should at least ask projects that they are working to pay tradeable coins or do not delay and lock bounty hunter's shares, this way they will not resort to cheating and will very active in promoting your project.

Not surprisingly anymore, since there are a bunch of bounty campaigns that are ongoing everyday, only few to be successful. You are lucky if you got one decent bounty project. Just like mine, i join several.bounty campaigns and one few that has the tokens listed on an exchange, the rest is hard to get listed 3ven fir a successful project.

yes for the problem of disappointment of course all bounty hunters feel it, but I am more concerned with investors because they are actually 2x more disadvantage compared to hunters for example project 2017/2018 many of them experience the destruction of value and the worst is almost all the bounties that I follow experience this. I remember having a token with a price of $ 2-5 / Token now the price of the token is only less than $ 0.1, and I sell them when approaching $ 2 in the past and imagine there are investors who buy this tokens and don't do cutloss Cry

We can't find the project is legit or not before the start in the bounty campaigns. Some good projects are getting scam after the ICO. Another projects type are listing exchanges and not paying to bounty hunters. That's why own research is very important. You can choose good projects with your own research. I have seen already listed projects also doing bounty campaigns. But those campaigns rewards are low. Then we have to work hard with good projects and avoid scam projects.

This is so sad but i tjink this applies to the crypto space in general, investing in a project and the next day you hear that the project has not meet softcap amd funds are been returned, anyways at least that is better than the ones that least ans get negative% few seconds later, how about those that elope with our funds? This space is not friendly anymore

I think it is safe to say that more than 90% of the bounty hunters is experiencing the same. I also have some hundreds of tokens in my eth wallet and I haven't checked them for some time now (pretty sure the value will be dismal if I check)  Cheesy

Just another proof that we never really know what's going to happen to projects we follow/promoted.

I am similar to you, big projects are promoted so much that it takes me a lot of time and almost no money. What shows that large projects are not necessarily profitable for bounty hunters

It only means that we really can't say what projects are legit or not on its face value alone. Very difficult even if we do our research, and it reflects the current state of altcoin market right now.

You're right. We are at the stage that investors are getting wiser by the minute and no longer interested to put their money on ICO, that's why 90% failed (scams or not).

TBH: Ever since the IEOs are launched it's getting harder and harder to find good projects which are running a bounty campaign.

And when we find a good project to participate they unlock the rewards after a really long wait.

I guess most bounty hunters including me share your sentiment but there is almost nothing we can do to prevent it. Adding to this injury, is that some projects which conducted bounty campaigns, deceive their participants by rewarding their efforts with significantly very low amount compared to what was expected based on the bounty spreadsheet resulting to the disappointment of bounty participants.

Unfortunately you are right, my friend. Once the bounty campaigns were for attracting money to worthy projects, but now it’s just a way to make money for scammers. However, decent projects are appearing now, but there are too few of them.

Bounty hunters are only respected at the period when the bounty is ongoing. After the campaign, they are threatened to be banned from group even if they ask about distribution or listing date. Their bounty rewards will be withheld for months all because developers think they would dump their tokens. Bounty hunting is really sad these days.

Bounties used to be pretty lucrative, you could easily get $100-300 per campaign for just doing some retweets or translating or posting, and a significant amount of my current Bitcoin holding is thanks to bounties, but I have stopped bounty hunting as soon as I saw signs of quick decline, and I switched to more productive activities. I feel sorry for people who do bounties today, they are probably misguided by stories from the past or just very desperate, though in their situation even faucets and captchas would provide higher rewards.

Personally, I believe that bounty hunters still work and earn rewards. But still you need to look and work hard in search of good bounties. Since there are still many promising projects on the market. Which still can bring good profit for bounty hunters. Good luck to everyone.

i know this is hard to hear and i am sorry to say this but they deserve what they get.
when people stop caring what they advertise and start getting involved with all kinds of scam and garbage and help these scammers get their victims, then there is really not much room for them to complain about their profitability of doing so!
when you see some useless token that is trying to get investors you should stay away from it instead of helping them "spread the word". but when you don't you will also become one of their many victims.

Weak hands have been complaining about missing out ever since bitcoin was $1 and never buy the dip.
Whales are those who keep buying the dip.

The ICO market is itself dead or on the verge of dying! Millions of investors were duped by these unknown start ups which actually paved the way for loosing credibility of ICOs. When investors are not getting profit, what bounty hunters can expect? I too also active in the bounty hunting earlier, but I have noticed that the profit is not worth the time I was spending on bounties so I have moved out of this market. I still have millions of tokens in the ETH wallet which has no value at all and not being traded in any exchanges.

There was a project called Coin Janitor which was initially gave me hope that I will be able to unlock the values of the dead coins but they also seem to be not helpful much!

Yes, bounty hunters are quitting the job day by day because it's not really profitable anymore but there are still bounty hunters who have trust in cryptocurrency that it will recover soon. Its very hard to pinpoint a project if its really a legit or will not dump below ico price nowadays.

Very true as you say.
This phenomenon has been happening for a long time, so many projects are ongoing, thus making it difficult for bounty hunters to make choices.
Almost all bounties offer promising concepts, but in the end very much that makes the bounty hunter disappointed.

my advice, don't judge a book by its cover, look and understand the contents first, Only then can we make the right choice.
