As a Bounty hunter, don't expect too much

[gunungkembar]

I only joined some bounties so far and from my experience I could say that we shouldn't really expect too much from it.
Don't be fooled by their high amount campaign because their crypto couldn't even make it near their initial offering price and they couldn't even be listed on a decent exchange sites.

indeed the bounty campaign today is very different from last year, in the past there were still many people who were not familiar with the bounty campaign and there were still many good projects that could make investors interested and many successful projects, but for now there are many scammers and many people who know bounty campaign is no longer able to prosper, it's better to find work in the real world or make your own business by trading.

How about selling some portions of your tokens and keeping the rest just in case the price surge in few months? I think this is the best move that every bounty hunters should use because you really can't tell what will happen, sometimes you end up regretting selling tokens after they appreciate in value

[steveabrahams]

You are right but to be honest taking profits from bounties are mostly from dumping/selling the tokens because the tokens/coins price always fall so hard after the tokens listed on the exchange. If you are late a second, your token value will reduced drastically and it happens so many times on many projects and tokens.

At the first place you are the one who picked them.
It is not them who picked you.

So why complain?
It is all your risk for taking a job which you don't know if will be successful or not.
I see a lot of people also complain with it and want bounty hunters to have some kind of a unity.
We are united, it is just that when it comes to picking job it is our choice who to support.

[joseyphil82]

Its all on you to choose wisely, though you can't completely fend off bad/scam projects but every little mistakes you make is a lesson, unless you fail to learn from your mistakes, all you need to keep doing is good research, find reasons why projects fails most times and you will understand

The first issue of bounty Hunters is that they forget the naturally hunter could just be luck to kill something big today and nothing tomorrow or something very small even in the same forest. Social media  campaign maylocate the same percent of disbursement for Facebook and when the population of participant has overwhelmed the percent they have very little at distribution. Faithful signature campaign participants uses the only opportunity to join one campaign at a time, so they tend to have more.miners get more  and traders too. hunters learn to manage their token as it may come.

Isn't this the reason why hunters are not very welcome or blamed for every dump that occur in that project, often times hunters will rush to dump their reward even before the real investors had the chance to do so, at the end this will affect the price greatly, more reason why some team are refusing to pay hunters and other are paying peanut just for this particular reason.

It should be, because all bounty hunters have experienced regrets after selling all tokens at the start of listing in the exchange, only what I often see is many tokens or new coins always dump after being listed on the exchange, except for tokens or coins that are already completely true popular in cryptocurrency it will not be easy to experience its price dump, even if it happens dumps will always be able to rise in the future.

Lesson learned never hold tokens came from bounty campaign. Usually these tokens dump when got listed on exchange and many people complain why the token price easily depreciated. Only few ICOs retain the price of their tokens and that usually happened in most of campaign. Better yet join a signature campaign that pays off btc.

By participating in bounty, bounty hunters should not expect to earn huge amount money as bounty is passing a hard time but real and hard working bounty hunters can earn few but that can cover his/her cost of labor. lazy hunters will not cope with the situation as they are left away by depression.

[isaac_clarke22]

I believe that some bounty hunters are just expecting too much from alts. Most altcoins I heard were never meant for a long-term hodling. They were mostly intended to be just for the sake of short-term trading. This is what I was trying to talk about when it comes to finding legitimate bounties. People think that when there is legitimate project means that they would earn plenty, but sometimes a project would be legitimate but in the end it would be just a "crappy" project.

"Legitimate" and "profitability" arent' synonymous words.

[gwaposakon]

Often timw, i have seen lots of Bounty hunters complain about inability to sell their earned rewards simply because it dumped massively and got de listed or wasted away or died.

But I feel otherwise, some Bounty hunters expect too much from project they worked for and got few tokens, so instead of taking profits, they hold and end up earning nothing, then they claim the project is scam.

Stop working for free
Don't expect too much profits from projects.

NB: Taking profits does not literally mean dumping tokens, for examples, i earned 4,500,000 cyfm then worth over 200$
Today it worths less than 10$.

I can relate and oftentimes fall victim of my being greedy. I tend to hold my bounty rewards eventhough the equivalent is substantial enough because I was hoping that the project would prosper and eventually make it big in the market. Only to realize that its value went down very low or the project was eventually abandoned. so right now, even if the stakes is not high, I right away exchange the tokens. Better salvage any value for my effort than not having anything in the end.

Yup market has been really disappointing since last 2 years for all the bounty hunters, seems like there are no real and legit projects coming up now, i have been joining a lot of campaigns but got paid from only a few and all those too have no value, so all these months have proven to be waste of time but im not disappointed im still hopeful of good times to come back.

You will not waste time if you have experience and choose good bounty and have many chances of success. And it's best to just join the bounty with a part-time job, don't focus too much on it. Looking for an outside job so you can ensure a stable income

[miklesm]

I agree with you position, it is too late to earn money on Bounty campaigns. They are giving less and less profit with time, so it is better to to in for trading of long-term investments if you want to earn money on cryptocurrency market.

Undoubtedly, income from participation in the Bounty companies today has decreased by tens and hundreds of times, compared with 2016 and 2017.  Nevertheless, there are such Bounty companies that make it possible to earn $ 100 - $ 300 in a few months.  This is the average indicator of the bounty hunter’s earnings, which in any case can be used as seed capital for trading cryptocurrency or for investing in more promising projects so as not to dampen real money from your home budget into cryptocurrency.

[perla]

Very agree with OP. People must know, or maybe know since earlier. If me i think from around march 2018 i can see bounty is really hard to pick in case if we look for high rewards like when it is in early. From that time i know bounty is not good as primary income, and look for real job or if people have skill in trading, better focus on it.

Given the realities of today's cryptocurrency market, you should not count on getting quick profit from the received new token. You need to choose the right time to sell it, or reset it as soon as possible in case of our uncertainty about its prospects. If in the second half of 2017, absolutely all tokens grew in price, then this period will not be there. The market and its participants are constantly changing. Investors are becoming smarter and do not want to buy dubious tokens. There is no demand, so they cannot be sold. In the future, I think that there will be no problems with working tokens. There will be many universal cryptocurrency exchanges that will trade absolutely all types of working cryptocurrencies. In any case, new convenient opportunities for the exchange of cryptocurrencies will appear. Now we are only at the beginning of this journey.

Aren't these contradicting each others? You are basically working for free if you are not expecting much. Also, this whole bounty thing should have new standards.
They should mark the allocated bounty percentage on the topic, rather then "You will get $1,000,000,000 in CRAP tokens". No one cares about those numbers anyway.

[Spider A4]

No way for free work, who guys will spend time for free advertisement or promotion? New bounty hunter's exception is too much, even though they participated a few bounties. Hard worker however will get money because they are not expect big payment in any specific campaign, they worked a many campaigns. We should not count expected payment in ICO/IEO price.
