The problem is more scam project created in 2018-2019 many investors feel the lost and do not want to invet anymore in ICO project.

Since more of the ICO failed and lost its value once its listed in exchange, investors already know what will be the consequences investing in any of them. besides they dont offer new to investors they are always making a project the same with other. its  just changing the name but the idea is the same.

Bounty era has ended already if you just realize it now, then I'm sorry to tell you that no more bounty project has paid a lot since the end of 2018. Most of the bounty today is just a crap, wasting time and not sure if they will pay you at the end of the campaign. Those happy stories in the past about bounties have become a legend now. If I were you, I will look for another job if I want to continue living.

I don't think this question belongs to the Bitcoin Discussion section.

Anyway, here are my observations:

• Most projects offering bounty campaigns nowadays are either scam, terribly poor copycats, do not offer anything new to the market at all, or if they do it is not something that the people really need in real life.
• Members who are promoting crypto projects are lucky enough already if their token payments have value, listed on decent exchanges, or even get paid.
• Bounty campaigns are mostly done by projects that launch ICOs or IEOs. Since the market for ICOs has already lost most investors, the projects are far from reaching success. The IEO market is not much unlike the ICO market in performance.
• In the event that a project pays tokens with value and has it listed on an exchange, there is an almost automatic dumping that follows.
• Those projects that have overcome the ICO and the exchange listing hurdles are mostly getting weak and dying as time passes by. This is probably due to their integral weakness or the very tight competition in the crypto space.

at the end of this year if we see the prize hunter has decreased compared to last year because now there are so many projects that hold social media campaigns and the ico project almost doesn't give us prizes, even though like that but I personally currently always follow the campaign project because I think all that we follow there will definitely be one campaign that really pays for our hard work and for me there is no obstacle to joining the prize campaign if we want to succeed.

ICOs and token sales became popular in 2017 and we saw quite a boost in the ICO scene during the early months of 2017. This was also one of the driving factors behind the all-time-high price of Bitcoin late in 2017.

Most of these ICOs was scams and a lot of people lost a lot of money on these token sales. This lead to Facebook banning advertisements for ICOs on their platform in January, 2018 and more social media companies banning it too.

The government also got involved when the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission announced that it has the authority to apply federal securities law to ICOs and most ICOs in the US just dissapeared after that.

The legal ICOs now goes through strict procedures to be listed on Crypto currency exchanges, so it is much harder to buy and sell these tokens on popular exchanges now.

I have reported this thread to move to altcoin discussions because it's nowhere related to bitcoin.

I see Darker45 has given a detailed answer to this leaving no points untouched. I will summarize the issues as per my observation.

I see the root cause of the issue is due to the terrible loss of credibility. ICOs have become an wild playground of HYIP scammers! Literally we can hire a designer and pay that person few hundred dollars to create a stunning website for me to start an ICO business. We even have php scripts available for just $49 to manage the background of it which takes care of token issuance.

So every single person reading this post, can create an ICO website and start accepting investments. The result has been disastrous as an immediate effect. And we are seeing few to fewer projects coming up nowadays! Majority of them have taken IEO route which is another scam in the making!

This is not a problem but this is a reality now in the world of bounty hunting. The majority of the projects that are now coming are not good for everyone but still, there are bounty hunters that are trying them for real.

You need to embrace this reality, the solution for this is to avoid the projects which you think doesn't fit the likes of you. And for the good projects to come, we don't know when they will come.

I guess bounties becomes less effective to bring investors so team doesn't want to waste their money on bounties,they prefer most effective methods.

So the remaining useless projects are coming with crap ideas and newbie accounts,so chances of scam is high so no one willing to invest so when that token hits exchange it got dumped.

It's been happening for almost a year. Dumping tokens when it came to any exchange and the one to blame is the bounty hunters. We don't know if bounty hunter is the one to be blamed but there's a possibility that It might be the work of the devs    Real investors lose their trust in these kinds of schemes and they are avoiding ICO as I noticed. Before (in 2016) there are only rare cases that an ICO is failing because of a lack of investors, But today most ICO failed because of a lack of investors. It shows the respond of the real investors on the trust they lost on these scam/puny ICOs.

In addition, what happened with ICO trend in 2018 was hurting the various marketing services especially for autonomous campaign service like bountyhive, bounty0x, etc. The bad trend that happened with ico in 2018 was giving a widely bad image to ICO. But some decent bounties are still available in the market. As long as you are doing a proper research and you will get the best one. I agree with someone above me that scammer was hurting investors.

The legit projects are not just going to send out their tokens to bounty hunters either, they will rather wait and ignore if you if you call them scam for not distributing even when the campaign lasted 6 months ago. Some the tokens are already traded on the exchange but are not offering the manual swap to BEP. The kind of team is only giving promises, its better to just stay away.

Thanks sir for my mistake approved.Next time I Mind it.

Those good years of bounty campaigns disappeared after 2018 and the recent bounty campaigns are crap. If you have time to waste for useless bounty tasks, check the bounty sections board of the forum and you are not going to see a good project, unfortunately. The new projects don't have interest to pay the higher amounts for the bounty hunters and the old projects have filled the full limits.

[crairezx20]

I agree with them even in 2017 they started to offer scam projects which end up to be a scam. Unlike before that, I hold some of their coins become valuable after block halving.

They keep making some more projects last 2018 until this year which is most of them are scam I tried to join in some ICO bounties but no one gives me a good token or coin that has a value they just stuck in my wallet with no price.

Since people heard a lot of scam about ICO project they slowly stop investing in this kind of project. I don't know for IEO if they actually works but I think they are still the same.

I hope they can make a good solution for this. They should verify team first ask for real documents before they start ICO or IEO projects so that it can reduce scammers abusing our forum.

2016-2017 are the only years which i do consider out that bounty hunting is really worthy of your time yet majority of them do give out some
decent pays for its participants but after that bull run then majority of projects becomes scam and highly affecting bounty hunting of course.
Totally a waste of time if you do tend to participate on a certain project which you cant even be sure if they would got listed on exchangers or simply
you wont be paid at all in the end.

As in many posts is written, it is the fault of many scam ICOs and the fact that investors are afraid of throwing money away. However, I think it would not be so bad if it wasn't for the very long bear market. Unfortunately, but many projects failed because they kept their funds in cryptocurrencies instead of converting them to fiat. At a time when the market fell by 90%, they lost funds to finance development and failed. The point is that investors have lost confidence in ICOs and the projects are not even trying to raise money now because there is not enough fresh capital.

We could assume to that since social media campaigns are just being piled up by cheaters and there's no point on rewarding them that's why some project try different approach on bounty that can bring them quality works.

However, we can't deny the fact that investors had loss interest on crowdsale and would prefer to spend money on buying and holding top coins. Anyway, bounty hunters should just stop wasting their time joining and who knows that will change the game.

Investors interest makes the bounty hunting's no longer profitable. There's no support from previous investors since the scamming part of this business has being felt all around the market, if there's no money for the developers there's no chance for the bounty hunters to earned decent rewards. things will be different once the market recovers and investors trust will be gain back. Bounty will be healthy again if the market bounce back again and bring new investors inside.

Just improving the condition of the market is not enough. Investors must learn to check and analyze a project before investing in it. Only in this way will it be possible to eliminate scammers from ICO market. As long as people invest without thinking, scammers will keep trying.
