Should we boycott ICO's ?

[Wysi]

Most of us have been through this sad phase of life wherein we have wasted our precious time spanning to months on scam projects wherein the either the project turns out to be a scam or else the developers refrain from distributing the tokens to the bounty hunters for first few months after launch and by the time we receive it the value of token is negligible. Should bounty hunters boycott the ICO's and look for alternatives?

i think for many bounty hunters they may have no choice but to gamble with getting paid and put in the work
the payouts, if successful, can equal many years normal salary in their respective countries
SHOULD they boycott ICOs? we all should, i really like the idea of DAOs, in an ICO the people putting in the money seem to have the LEAST say : /

Honestly it's no longer funny seeing the rate at which ICO projects fail or go on extinction. Reason while before promoting an ICO project or investing, one has to consider many factors. I look critically at team, product, partnerships and backings, tokenomics before investing and also before promoting any project via bounty, I check the reputation of the bounty manager and other factors like allocation and terms & conditions. It's sad to put in a lot of effort promoting a project then at the end negative stories will set in.

Why? You do not need to invest into ICOs, you do not need to promote them in a bounty campaign. It is a risky way how to earn money, but it is more likely that you will lose money.
ICOs need skill, just like trading, so do not think about it as if it was a gamble.

Atleast bounty hunters need to stop joining from a bounty with not much information about distributing token or the project which has later distribution from investors then they can avoid ending up with long wait for nothing.

But hunters are ready to avoid? People keep joining and keep reporting makes more advantage for the bounty team not to the participants.

[Senar Gitar]

Yes, I know that, but we did not intentionally if the project we were promoting turned out to be a fraud, in fact we had checked as much detail as possible before joining them. so this sad story is not entirely because of us, but because of those who cannot manage the project properly.
but alternatives such as whether other than promoting the ico project, I personally am not a project investor, a daily trader, or playing dice. I like writing some project content and looking for free tokens through project campaigns.

Many people don't trust ICO anymore, because ICO has deceived many people, prizes and I joined prizes. See the project. If ICO sales reach the main sale then I will not join the prize. To boycott those who don't pay or distribute there must be a lot of people, if you do it yourself there won't be a boycott.

[bigcash2011]

I think you have realized this a little too late, i have felt this situation months ago, i still remember how i used to promote dozens of projects through multiple campaigns but now im so discouraged that i have stopped promoting any project especially on social media while i try to only participate in signature campaign after carefully checking a new project but recenty most of them have not worked out as well so it is really disappointing sitution where we cannot do much.

[Pelunize12]

it's so funny, look like that bounty hunter is very sad because of no payment, scam, or any bad thing happen in ICO
but the investor should be the one who is patheic, they lose money or even much money
and i recognized that happens because as long as 2018 until now, many ICO dont work well, that's why investor are affraid of it

Only them can answer this. They might abandon and boycott some but if they can't resist themselves to look after those "promising" pool prize, they might eventually join. Time will come that most of the ICOs attention will be drawn to IEO or another scheme of investment in this community and the bounty hunters will go the bandwagon and leave the ico bounty hunting.

Even if they say they are going to boycott it, they probably won't. The bounty hunter population is usually desperate for funds and it doesn't matter if they get scammed a couple times, as long as there is a chance of them profiting.

The ICO industry is a lot better now, we actually see decent projects nowadays and since it's died down, there are way less scams in the industry - just use your brain and you'll be able to find the difference between a possible success and a failure.

[fumblingperch]

Boycott about the ICO just does not make sense, because we will not achieve anything and scammers will appear again and again. But I believe that now and so few people want to invest their money in ICO, because they have long lost confidence among investors.

Hunters have dont choice but to accept this kind of method or terms. What else they can do? Look for an alternative? They will probably be staying since there no other option. Actually I'm confuse with the hunters here. They are so eager regarding payment even the campaign just ended for a day or a two, its like they needed to be updated when is when, in fact the duration is stipulated already in some announcement.

Bad effect if many investor boycott ICO's because there are not available for joining bounty campaign anymore, I know how investor feel with many time failed with ICO's although success with ICO sale but price always down, you can join ICO's investment but check how their road map running, based on shcedule or they are running ICO's without according the road map.

It is up to bounty hunters. Some are still gamblig joinig altcoin bounties even if the chance of getting paid is at it's lowest. But, who knows there are still some bounties out there that are legitimate and paying well. The problem is, bounty hunters are used to joining bounties for a short time with great rewards just like how it was before. ICO is almost dead, and only few investors are risking their money on ICOs which make it less likely to succeed.

[fuer44]

how do you boycott? a number of ico scams, carrying away funds that have been collected, tokens are not released, prices are below standard, is it already guaranteed or at least an agreement before launching ico to the public between the team and the attorney? no, so there is no legal force capable of punishing scammers. an alternative step is to never help one ico, even though it's good. after that there will definitely be a big change in their system.

[Aabcde]

Yes it is very unfortunate this happened. What I mean is that these bounty hunters are tired of promoting their projects, but there is no satisfying reciprocity. I think it's better for the bounty hunters to be paid by BTC, ETH or anything that already has a market price. And of course the requirements for bounty hunters are also tightened to prevent duplicate or multi-account systems. So the bounty hunter also won't damage the price when the coin enters the market.

I think we should we cannot go on like this promoting scam ICO for several months, it's riskier than gambling spending hours and get nothing in return, the best alternative I've known so far is promoting gambling sites like what I'm doing it right or there is a forum called Cryptotalk and they are paying people to post.

[boltz]

Don't spread hate mate , let em fade away on their own actions. As long as we don't invest into new ICO's, teams will get the message and they will stop promoting projects without any real use case ....in fact maybe there will be a great ICO coming in 2020 , you never now so just watch them without investing.

I think about that, no need to boycott ICO. Because there are no signature is better than ICO before, maybe signature that paid in BTC is much in past. But now it is not much and usually hard to join it because always full participants. For me, paid or not i will keep with bounty.
