Low allocation bounty pools pays easily?

[gabbie2010]

Bounty hunters are easily carried away by fake juicy allocation for bounty pools thus get involved in promoting those projects at the end its either the huge token paid is worthless after listing in an exchange or non payment to the participants, I believed this is another factor to be consider when choosing a bounty campaign, low bounty allocation worth doing at least payment is guaranteed a proverb says 'a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush'

After reading few posts about how successful ferrum network bounty was i detect that the actual amount of the total bounty allocation is just around 45k and i think to myself maybe this was the reason why it become easy for the team to pay hunters?

It seems that bounties with not very large allocations are better because there is a high chance of getting paid over those bounties with 1million pool? am i right or wrong

I agree as i experience it also, mostly of those low allocation bounties was paid earlier compare to those larger allocation bounties i don't know whats the real reason behind it. or maybe because its just a small amount and cannot do any negative effects on the project as a whole and i hope that it would be more equal in terms of bounty allocation in regards to the bounty duration.

Not all the time because the distribution of the reqards depends on the project and the project manager which has no relation with the amount of token allocation. There are projects which has large token allocation but are paying on time, as what was stated in their website, and vice versa. So more likely, it is a case to case basis and generalization will just result to false information. Better choose a project with good reputation.

In relation to OP's opinion over Ferrum's allocation for bounty participants, they've rewarded their hunters successfully, However I am not at ease with the allocations given to participants, since the market value for each FRM was too cheap at $0.006; yet it won't be called profitable because of the reasons that  it took several months to finish the campaign. Most hunters were too emotional upon seeing the actual value of their rewards. Much better to have small bounty allocations that has huge market value; rather than promoting huge rewards with a centavo value during trading.

That's not the right interpretation but you have right point that most small allocation bounty are paying participants.

Obviously, because small allocation to bounty is easier to achieve since it is small, than to those too good to be true amount of funds that they needed to raised with their ICO.

Those shitty campaign that promising huge amount of bounty is obviously a scam. No legit company that will allocate huge amount of tokens just for advertisement in this forum. It will hurt there investors since most of the bounty token will be dump right after they receive payment. Those legit bounty campaigns allocate minimal amount of tokens for the campaigns that's why small caps bounty has high chance to pay participants.

I have to disagree.

I know we experienced a lot of scams this year but not all of them are that worst, there are still ICOs that are paying what they've promised, and allocating huge amount of tokens in signature campaign doesn't mean that a certain ICO is a scam, it is not also true that investors will be hurt because of dump that is going to happen after they receive the payment just because of huge allocation to signature campaign.

The truth is, every ICO tokens will be dump once they are released to the market, I hope you know that, bounties on signature campaign doesn't have any connection about that.

You need to understand that now the bounty program is like a casino. In most cases, you can see how to cheat the investors and the bounty hunters. Nothing will protect us from this-neither the analysis of the project, nor the observation of whitepepper. Therefore, there is no difference in what kind of reward Fund the team offers. Now the most important thing is that the project would not be a fake and you did not waste your time in vain. Try to take more projects and conduct statistics.

I would say that this is not a casino. Now, this is a very serious process of selecting and studying the project. if you just participate in all the bounties that appear - then this casino is for you

When the reward is too small you can’t earn, when the reward is too big then this is most likely a fraud. However, this is only 1 factor in evaluating the bounty campaign, you should conduct your research.

[cryptonewbie]

I don't agree that reward size influences how fast a payout will be initiated in bounty campaigns. I have done bounties with huge rewards and they paid on time. I also  did those with meager rewards and the pay was delayed for a long time. I don't want to mention their names

45 000 tokens could worth more than 1 million of another tokens. You should know the value in BTC, ETH or USD to compare it. But basically yes, the less reward for bounty hunters, then the biggger chance that you will be really paid.

Today some projects with already listed tokens are holding Bounty campaigns with small pools, so it is almost garanteed that you will get a payment in time. But you should be ready to get 10$ for 8 weeks of the job.

No, it's not about low allocation, it's about the project. If a project is good and honest, they will pay you according to their pool, even the pool surpass 300-500K USD! Ferrum project and bounty eas successful but the hunters did not earn good money after working for 4-5 months! Some of my colleagues earned only 20-25$ for 3 months' work, can you believe? As Ferrum was an ICO project, so the price fallen down significantly! But look at Mycrojobs, they paid over 300K USD and bounty hunters earned thousands of dollars!

you were right,actually bounty payment depend on developers team it self.no matter it much or small amount but if they have commitment to their supporter they will pay it.some projects that collect less money keep give their bounty hunter reward and vice versa, projects that collect huge amount sometime cut allocation or even didn't pay it at all.and congratulation for bounty hunter that get good amount from bounty reward ..in moment we still find good campaign and good reward.

Low allocations sometimes can be very frustrating. Imagine a campaign where there were so many participants competing a a very low pool. When such happens, most of the bounty hunters, most especially social media participants might end up not getting up to a dollar. So there might not be any point in joining low allocation bounty.

[electronicash]

i get it that many of bounty hunters weren't paid for the several campaigns they have joined in the past, i have participated to some of it. if all they do is avoid distributing the tokens all they because they have allocated more than they should then they could just distribute quarterly just as some campaigns did. or perhaps before they announce to do the campaign, plan it to just give away few so the dumps won't stole money from them big time.

I don't think this is always the case, because even when team promise to pay $400k for a bounty, remember they are not paying with btc but with their valueless tokens so I don't see why it should be something difficult for them to do, if any bounty pays on time it is because the team are good and knows how to honor their promise, but some team are too stingy and selfish that even allocation is small, they still find it hard to honor their own end of the promise. This has nothing to do with allocation but the team involved.

When a project decides to hold a bounty with a small budget it is more likely that participants would get their rewards and that this token would stay at a good price level after several exchanges listings, because there would be nobody to dump it hard.

I believe that the Bounty team of the company, which allows poor conditions and unrealistic rewards for Bounty hunters, is to blame for all the problems.  If there are too many participants and the pool for the Bounty company is too low, then you can limit the number of participants so as not to worry about rewards and future landfills.  It turns out that the team wants to use the work of the Bounty company to its full potential, but no one wants to pay the remuneration in full.

Actually, I'm not sure, but I also follow many bounties that provide small allocations, some are mostly paid quickly because they don't think about the effect of prices because of bounty hunters, but some are still the same as bounties that use large allocations, they pay with time exactly the same. for ferum itself, I didn't have the chance to follow it because I saw a very small allocation, but it turns out that this bounty provides additional rewards by holding our tokens on social mining activities to get additional rewards.

it doesn't like that.
as far i know from my experience as a bounty hunter.
high or low allocation for bounty is a not guarantee for you get the payment.
but it is a sign to see how the project works, i mean , nowdays bounty already crazy enough to create a pool of a millions for bounty.
and of course we have a sign that project will not going well.
maybe u still get paying from them , but i am totally sure , a large of dumper truck will come soon.
and may u ask, "so i am right. itsn't ? "
not at all , low allocation doesn't mean u will get the payment,like i say before, its just a signal.
solid ecosystem already planned inside , a simple worlds ,"the bounty is logical and reasonible"
now it depend who people managed that bounty, a good one if the team hire a bounty manager.
since the bounty manager doesn't want get a low reputation about what bounty he managed.
but the worst, just see vanta.
total for bounty just about 1.5% from total token sale.
they don't even get the hard cap.
and i didn't get the payment.

I've joined bounty before but I stopped because it took so long for them to release the tokens.

I am not sure if low allocation pays instantly but hope there is a criterion that they follow when awarding the tokens after the bounty.
