BOUNTY SCAM!!!

[lesor]

majority of bounty are scam they take months of your hard work and give you a worthless token, sometimes you work 3moths just to get 9m token worth $2. They are using you to enrich their selves it's called 21st century slavery.
Avoid any token pool less than $1m .they are worthless at the end.
Be careful of newbie bounty manager.
Avoid Ico bounty, too risky.
I have millions of worthless token in my wallet I worked hard for it, don't waste your time be careful..  I love you Son

sad. bad true.
in 2017 i've been caught in the same scum, instead of 300$ I've got around 70$. Lucky for me it was for a month, not for three month as in your case and yet the bounty were 70$ it is still not bad.
I think best way now to see bounty is ready to pay fix payment per post in fiat or btc and payment every week.. if they miss a week, then you can drop this bounty..
best of luck, man!

This is the best idea if a bounty is ready to pay in Btc payment,  but where the problem is,  it's in the fact that majority of these ico or IEO projects conducting bounties does not have the money to pay in Btc,  they might not meet up to soft or hard cap,  so where will they get the money from,  instead they send their tokens which is worthless most time to participants

Do you think higher allocations will have any difference?

Those prices are based on the project's ICO price and that won't determine its future market price.

Take that experience as a lesson and think of alternative ways to earn. The hype of doing bounties today is over.

[Natalim]

I do have the same but I still feel happy with what I earn last 2017, but 2nd half of 2018 and onward, there is not good bounty anymore.
Though I was not anymore victim of scams, but due to the rampant scam in the past, the market was fully affected, now ICO can't survive and bounty is just a waste of time. 

However, I am not suggesting you to stop because with proper research, you'll surely find a bounty that will pay you a good amount at a good value, and let's hope the market will also recover so the possibility to earn will increase.

Thank you for sharing your experience and warning others. But objectively i can't blame ICOs to be scam to explain my waste time promoting an etopic idea, not even a real product. Bounty hunters should have conscience that they are sharing the risk with investors.
A bounty hunter may spend hard efforts but awarded nothing if:
- the project is a scam (most cases)
- the project didn't reach the intended cap.
- they failed to pass KYC
- the token is listed in a restricted centralized exchange
- ...
- ...
And at best case he will sold a million token reward (as promised) for 3 dollars. Just forget about bounty paiements, it was a bubble happened two years ago and we had take the lesson. Stop doing bounties for shitcoins and the number of scams will eventually decrease.

Thanks man
near 1 week ago see advertising of this project
So they are scam and no need to waste time on them?

[wildey]

Well, I also agree with this opinion. sometimes a project runs long enough, and quite a lot of funds are collected. however, the results provided are not the same. Well, this made quite a lot of investors switch from investments like that. however, not all projects are like that. true, by seeing who is the manager can also be an important point.

but the thing to remember is that it is also a risk for bounty hunters who follow bounties on a project.

[Coin_trader]

Stop joining bounty campaign that promises a huge amount of bounty allocation because they are surely scam. Most of the legit IEO or ICO don't the bounty campaigns anymore since before they start the project. They have already private investors to ensure the project. Sadly when I check the altcoin section. I think I saw on less than project that seems legit bounty campaign which not guarantee that there token value will be high when list on exchange.

For the mean time. Try to avoid joining on bounty campaigns or join only on bounty campaigns that manage by experienced bounty manager. In this way the risk to join on scam project will be minimize.

It is the risky part of joining new projects, so we must need to examine whether the project is capable to reach even softcap, but at this rate it's really hard to do even for projects that are convincing since no big investors are willing to risk nowadays. Joining in existing project with names or already listed in an exchange and projects that are able to allot budget weekly or monthly thru btc is much better at this time until the market isn't performing well and until scammy project exist.

I don't how you get A Million token from bounty even I see you only newbie and just followed not much.
emjac - 1 week
dcommunity - 4 week
hinto - 2 week
hivenet 4 week
fred - 3 week
dexa 3 week
tls - 2 week
I am calculated not A million, just a thousand.

[boyptc]

Do you think higher allocations will have any difference?

Yeah, even the higher pool bounty will do the same.

They give high stakes reward for each participant but that won't change the fact that they have no assurance that the value will be that much.

You should practice what you preach. At one side you are saying bounty is useless and convincing people to stay away from it but on the other hand you are yourself applying for the bounties.

You applied in two bounties today

As we know participating on bounties from new project and pay with their token/coin, usually will wasted our time if their token/coin can't be sold. But, this is part of bounty jobs. If you don't want to waste your times from bounty, make a research about it. Choose any bounty that you think very potential based on your research. If you can't find something wrong, you can join. Or, try to increase your levels for this forum, and join project pay in BTC for their Bounty participants.

Lately the payments from the bounty campaign have been rather disappointing. But I'm sure the bounty manager also doesn't want this to happen to bounty hunters. Because the allocation given has been agreed by both parties between the bounty manager and the project representative. However, if the price problems that arise do not match our expectations, it is not their fault. Because if the token is already listed in the market, the market will determine how valuable their tokens are. This can also be seen from how much they succeeded in selling their tokens at the ICO stage.

Main reason why i do leave with bounty hunting due on receiving pennies for your how many months work.It isnt really that
easy to find the best project even you thought that they are good neither you are comparing their total allocations it would be just
still the same.There are even projects which you do look legit but in the end they do end up scam and you do able to see some shit projects
but in the end they had been listed on good exchangers thats why you would really had that confusion.

You are not the one posting this kind of topic it's the same number like when Bitcoin is going up and down, and yet people still joined the bounty campaign, even if they already have hundreds of worthless token in their wallet, the temptation is always there, because we never know what each coin will present after they finish their ICO.

[cryptobaro]

It is very true. I have been participating in bounties for 3 years but lets say I participated in 100 bounties, only 30-40 of them actually paid. Some paid but not the same amount the promised, some paid but did not even list on exchange. I advice you to join social mining to get the reward you deserve.

Again, this dilemma has been with us since 2018 and I don't know why people still prefer to join bounties. I know that 2017 is a boom, but ever since we enter this bear market, it's a rude awaking for everyone specially for those hunters who think that they can still make a lot of money and didn't understand the business flow of the ecosystem. And then you will hear them bitch around the community, and yes, its sad but true. And besides more than 90% are just scams, so just stay away and look for other ways to earn BTC only.

It's not true, bounty allocation has been settled only from dev side. Bounty manager has nothing to do with the bounty, unless the dev have agreement if BM who will distribute the token later after campaign ends, which rarely happened, ussually the dev who distribute the bounty to all participants. That's why BM can't guarantee the project will be successful or not, since their main job is only maintaining post quality and other jobs from their bounty participants.
