Facts about bounties

[mdzahed134]

Right for now most projects do not pay and if paying the coin can not be sold for various reasons. From 2019 until now there has not been a new project that big pays for me, so I'm still looking for that luck from one of the bounty projects that really pays out with the big.

In 2017 if we got reward 5-6 projects out of 10 projects. And now from previous year 2019 to 2020 if you will joined 10-20 projects there no chances to get reward from single project. Big payments is depends on projects budget than if your luck favour than it's possible. Most of those deceiving and big payment is another big deal.

Unfortunately the last year, in many bounty campaigns did not any payment was made due to the project's failure or turning into a scam. In addition, the tokens sent in most paying bounty campaigns had no value. Satisfactory profit been obtained from only a few campaigns. For this reason, newbies should not expect much from any bounty campaign until the tokens are sent and they should not rely on the amount stated in the reward amount.

I would say that the bounty campaign market is just very difficult for newbies right now. but for me he just became very small. Now I can not participate in the bounty for several months, because I do not see projects for which I am ready to spend my time.

Being a bounty hunter in my opinion is an easy job compared to working offline, it's just that for now it's no longer the golden age of bounties, now it needs to research before promoting a project. in fact this is all due to scammers, where good and potential projects sometimes also fail, due to scammers now it is very difficult to find investors in this free market. until now I am still a bounty hunter (easy job) and I am sure there are still a number of projects there that are legitimate or potential and pay me according to what I do.

To all newbies or new comers, here are few advice for you guys if you want to start promoting bounties

1. Many bounties won't pay
Its a real fact that some might not want to accept for one reason or the other, new projects aren't that attractive to investors anymore so be ready for the worst.

2. Bounties are still Profitable
Ignore whatever bounty hunters are saying, yes many projects aren't paying but still some are paying, experience of a bounty hunter is different from one another, some bounty hunters still find it hard to learn from their mistakes


Remember that even good projects that looks promising can still fail but here is what I want you to hold on to, a single bounty project can cover for all your losses, what I meant is 1 project can give you biggest profits even when you've promoted 10 projects that gives nothing, this is why its called BOUNTY.

Yes, many bounties don't pay to the bounty hunters and few bounties pay but this amount is too low that can't cover transaction fees, sell fees and withdraw fee. By the way, sometimes few projects come to do bounty and they are good projects but their payment budget are not upto the hard work of the bounty hunters although we work in the hope of getting a little amount. We are neither leaving bounty nor getting payments according to our work.

We have seen many things that makes us not to be Frank with ourselves, we should know that; many projects with have been launched with different aims, many at which was intended for scam and others for real. Although, some projects looks promise from the beginning and later dump for scam, this has caused many mixed feelings among investors and bounty hunters. Nowadays, we find it difficult to know the real projects from fake projects, this is disturbing the entire industry.

[lienfaye]

You're right, though many bounties are scam nowadays there's also few existing that are legit. The only problem is its hard to determine what could it be because sometimes even you do an extensive research and careful where to participate, you're still ending up in a scam project.

Thats why most of us are saying bounties are not like before wherein it is still profitable and majority succeed. Its different now hence if you want to join in bounties make sure you're aware what to expect much better read what op says.

[pawanjain]

I would not recommend anybody to join bounties these days because people have been scamming a lot of users in the name of bounties.
Fake projects get launched and scam people into joining bounties and promoting their fake projects for free.
Although there are genuine projects that actually pay the people, bounties have a bad reputation because of the tremendous amount of scams happening.

I agree there's still good bounty exist even now a day there a lot came out not good bounty. For me bounty is one of the easy way to do to get earn and it is good for newbie when they want to get earn bounty is good start for them. Also bounty is really good to get earn especially when your rank is higher because your earning surely become higher also.

Even before when bounty program has just starting there were some bounty campaigns that did not pay due to the fact that the projects turned into scam or the project did not meet the certain amount of funds they wanted for the project that are running an ICO. It has just gotten worst lately as investors don't want or don't trust ICO projects anymore as they are afraid the get scammed.

i think its wrong opinion about bounties. i know most of bounty program scammed us and some other pay us for small amount. but we should not give up to find good campaign in in crypto market. many bounties outside forum that could give us some money. recently i find good airdrop campaign such as origin protocol and many other.if we want to participate in bitcoin bounty we have to improve our post quality and get merit as common requirement.

As a bounty hunter, you must prepare for the worst case scenario. In 2019, the number of ICO's declined so much compare to the last 2 years so the number of bounty campaigns also declined that much too and the fact that most of them don't pay makes bounty campaign right now not profitable anymore and a waste of time (for me).

2. Bounties are still Profitable
Ignore whatever bounty hunters are saying, yes many projects aren't paying but still some are paying, experience of a bounty hunter is different from one another, some bounty hunters still find it hard to learn from their mistakes

Paying bounties are seldom to rare right now. In 10 bounty campaigns that you will join, you are lucky if 2-3 will pay you tokens and you can exchange it to the exchanges. As I said, bounty hunting for me isn't profitable for me already and it is a waste of time. It is not that profitable like what it is 2 years ago where many bounty campaigns are paying their bounty hunters.

[kambaralikhan]

Bounties pay much but the problem is bounties only payout when the projects meet soft and hard caps. If they fails to meet these caps bounties are not usually payout as promised. So due to the massive slump in crypto economy new investment is not entering in the market and new projects are failing to launching. I have seen golden era of bounties in 2017 and mid 2018 when bounties paid out as promised but after that since the recession hit the market everything has gone down...

[GREENch]

I agree with TS, bounties still generate income. Those of the hunters who say that there is nothing to earn and there is nothing to do here probably could not rebuild after a very profitable past years.

Correct!  I joined several bounty campaigns when I left the Fortune Jack Sig camp way back 2018 (bounty were so promising during those time), of all the bounty I joined, not one gave me a good reward.

2. Bounties are still Profitable
Ignore whatever bounty hunters are saying, yes many projects aren't paying but still some are paying, experience of a bounty hunter is different from one another, some bounty hunters still find it hard to learn from their mistakes

This might be true or not.  You should have given proof that bounty is still profitable.  That way no one will refute what you are saying here.

Sorry, I don't agree with you mate, because big payments do not depend on the project's budget, it depends on the project reputation! Like Mycrojobs has 800K USD worth coin budget for the bounty but when bounty hunter received their payment, that was pure shit. When harmony bounty budget was 15K USD and then it became 150K USD worth when the hunter received it. But you said the truth that in 2017, we used to getting payment from most of the bounty campaign and now even big successful project deceive us.

This bounty of a thing should be left for dedicated bounty hunters only because I feel they are the only ones who will benefits the most, they have enough time to hunt for more and they won't be able to rely on a single project unlike people that have other jobs in real life

Yes, you are right. I know many people who left their job to continue their bounty job with full stress. Those people don't miss a single project even they know most of them will scam. But in the end, overall they are making huge money from bounties. They spend huge time on bounty and airdrop and the result is really inspiring! So, there is still good money if you are able to do it widely!

Though many hunters have concluded that campaigns are not profitable anymore but the truth is that we still have many campaign that are profitable if we can take our time to research.

agree, that among the many campaigns that do not produce according to our wishes, there are still some that can be relied upon and can deliver results. It is really needed research and analysis if you want to participate in a campaign even though it is not easy, but there is still a chance that there is still a campaign that is really good and respects the participants.

1. Many bounties won't pay

It is true that many bounties don't pay the bounty hunters for several crucial reasons. But they are not the bounties paid in BTC, but mostly bounties paid in new altcoins. Some reasons that make no payments are:
1. Failed to reach softcap/hardcap, so the team members stop the project. (less interest from investors)
2. The projects are scams, so the team members suddenly disappeared. 
3. The token values of the new projects have almost zero values on the exchanges. This is also the same as no payment for me.
