So far this year , a lot of scams have occurred in the crypto sphere ranging from projects scamming investors and as well as projects not paying hunters for their works.

What do you think can be done to counter this ill manner behaviors that has been painting cryptocurency bad?
The cryptosphere is poorly regulated.Many investors can't get their money back not to mention the bounty participants who also lost a lot of time on promotion.It is very difficult to protect yourself at the moment (at least for a bounty participant).Investors still have many more options for their security.Recently, I'm sure that many people know this, investors have been participating in IEO on Binance and KuCoin.I think investing in this way the risks are minimal although not excluded.

I would like to tell all bounty hunters to be on look out for bounty projects with very short duration like a month, they always pay reward and get listed faster, it seems bounties will short duration of time are well funded

Because a lot of scams occured in crypto most people lose trust on crypto and don't know what to choose and because they are new and are afraid to not get scammed, hope there can be a way to stop this and all people to research before invest.
Currently, the best way to limit scam is that projects should communicate and seek trust in exchanges, as long as they find a place to list, people's confidence will increase, eliminate fear and help the project go up, so many projects have achieved this achievement only when they run IEO. But the future will need more positive innovations when exchanges only help a few projects, it cannot completely change the market, for those who are doing bounty, fraud is frequent, can only try to limit by selecting more carefully

i think that is purely based on your experience, but i think its feasible because you can join more bounties, you also spend less time on scam projects and possibly find more success than sticking to one long project.

One of the main factors to avoid scam projects is awareness. You need to have crypto knowledge first of all. Another factor is regulatory measures. If a crypto project found scamming investors or bounty hunters, it should face action. Another is bounty managers. Bounty managers can know fake or genuine crypto projects. So they can also help.

Difficult situation, there have been many scam projects and there are also many projects that do not pay bounty participants. One thing we can do now is don't participate or support new projects anymore, the project I meant was a suspicious project from the start. I prefer to support projects that are already in exchange, so that the project must pay participants. Because the reputation of each project is certainly very well maintained.

Scammers would really mess around crypto for they could earn as much invloving cryptocurrency and we can't stop them. What we can stop is being an unintentional supporter of scam projects and bounty by identifying which one is which and completely avoiding it once discovered and then spread awareness about it. Help each other and enlighten one another there are things to be avoided here in the cryptospace and we need to help save the image of cryptocurrency for it already has a bad shot from the government and letting this stain worsen the case could stop the and gwt in tge way of achieving massive adaptation

I think we need to be careful on investing and joining in bounty campaign,  always read the white paper and understand what the real use of this coin that will help to develop the crypto currency world.  And also if we know that this ico or ieo campaign make a thread right away and post the details why this campaign are scam. So that we can help other member to not participate on this campaign.  And to all bounty hunters always visit scam accusation so that we will have idea what campaign is scam.

There are many ways, but the results will not have any effect on fraud projects, and projects with models like this will always be there, especially about the bounty problem because there is always drama here. for example the problem of reducing allocations, locking up within a year, and the worst does not pay at all.

reducing the rewards for a bounty campaign is terrible. all of us are already very tired of this, so we all vote for fixed payments on a weekly basis. The problem with blocking coins is not a problem. I would be ready to fix my coins for a year if in order to unlock tokens I did not have to go through KYC or do some additional things

Fixing the payment for the bounty hunters and end up getting no investment at all isn't good for the companies. If you look at stats these bounty campaigns earns little to no traffic to the ICO. Conversion is way too less through these campaigns. So what in for these companies by paying so much to bounty hunters and getting nothing in return?

Scammers are no longer as rampant as before, but we must remain vigilant in determining projects as investments or wanting to join bounty. Who can fight scammers is ourselves, I mean, don't be lazy to do research

The only way to counter is to be knowledgeable about the essence of the project and if it is really worth tokenizing. Do your own research on the quality of the project and the team experience. What marketing strategies did they put in place, Is their GitHub active often for development? Many things to consider before jumping to participate in bounty of ICO/IEO

You also need to put the team into consideration. They are the decision makers of the project. They decide of it will end up being legit or that it will end up being scam. If you cannot do this by yourself, you can contact experts on the is forum. One of them is ICOEthics, but I do not know how active he is these days.

Everything is done by project team. Late payment, no payment, ignoring hunter work, reject process by KYC, decreasing budget and last dump market. By few reward bounty hunters can't dump the whole cryptocurrency when all project is rising their available supply. Here has no rules against unpaid campaign.

I think many 'scam' project is caused by difficult to collect money. Devs cant develop their project if doesnt have enough money.
Then, it makes bounty hunter who support their project cant get good payment too

In the other hand, there are scammer from project itself. Dev makes the project just for lying investor, stealing money from investor. In this case, we have to smart enough to avoid
