Shit bounties are getting attention and hype! Stop doing these bounties!

[Kasabus]

The bounties are a total waste of time, anyone who can't do proper research will fall for such projects and hoping they will get paid later on, only those who know how precious time is will avoid wasting their time

Yes, you are absolutely right. Doing bounties without proper research is just a waste of time! Sad but true that people never stopped joining in shit bounties, only a few numbers of people fo research before joining, others 70% people keep doing bounties blindly, and they stick their position at newbie forever!  Everyone should realize time is precious than tiny money!

So it's really a must to make a thorough research before joining such bounties because as of these days, only few of the numerous bounties are genuine and are paying the bounty hunters well at the end of the campaign. But for those who never do research first, goodluck to all of you. It's better to spend quality time with your family than giving most of your time posting in shit bounties.

It is hard to stop participants from participating in these projects. As you can see, participants continue to participate and continue to increase everyday. It only show that so much bounty hunters can't determine a good or bad projects.
Good thing the below link shows the list of good projects and really helps a lot of bounty hunters.

However, If you need good bounties suggestion, see this thread,
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5228629.msg53916917#msg53916917

Even though you've participated in the legit project but it won't give assurance that its price is really amazing or it pumps instantly. We still need to be patient in such a way that we are giving them time also to recover and stabilize its market demand. As more often that new project will definitely suffer a huge dump after listed since most bounty participant will dump their coin right after they received the reward.

Unfortunately many hunters don't share your views because those project you mentioned above are already having bounty participants applying, so you see this type of project will always have there way because some people don't listen or care to do a little digging before joining this bounties.

These kind of bounty hunters are more on quantity than quality, they do not research and just do bounty and hope that they get paid and the coin will have value, they let other people research for them, these bounty hunters are hit and miss kind of bounty hunters.

We can call these bounty hunters as lazy bounty hunters.

That is the hunter now most of them only see the quality at the beginning, not doing further research with the project, bounty is now too ambitious when it comes to the new bounty program, they immediately send an application to register it even though if it is meticulously it could be a bounty scamer.

That bounty now many are lazy in reading the rules and also do not do with research.

They are getting attention from those who doesn't know how to look for a proper bounty.
Those participants are only joining what they could without doing some background check on those project.
Sometimes you could see that the bounty is just a big joke or a fake project by their bounty rewards.

Sometimes scammers put too much percentage of the supply of their token to the bounty campaigns to attract many of them to join. The more bounty participants and good promotion there will be. I already read and make my own research of those projects that mention by OP. I immediately know that those campaigns are not what other people see (scam project). A lot of participants still joining this campaigns, we should tell them before it's too late. Their website even show the money being raised and some of them don't have any project team.

Of course, every bounty participant would want a big reward so they'll earn big enough after the promotion, this usually experience in the last like the last bull run but not this time.

Now, IEO is more accurate as its the exchange who are telling how much funds are raise already, more transparent compared to the ICO style where team are putting figures in their own website which we don't know if its really the funds coming from the investors or their own money only, just to make the project look good and to entice more investors.

We should stop telling people not to do a particular bounty, many have created this type of OP on this forum and yet the numbers of hunters promoting those projects keeps rising, it's a waste of time and energy

[Stanlo]

My signature campaign is ending a week and I really decided about joining these campaigns because they seem legit at the first sight. Thank you for your deeper analysis, you should receive merit for it, sorry I don´t have any, otherwise I would have sent for a great work!

What campaigns seem legit? Read before you post, all the projects OP lists are bad bounty projects that need to be stay away from not promote them

[pawanjain]

Nothing can stop bounty hunters from participating in more bounties unless they realize it themselves.
I have been a bounty participant in early 2017. Yes, when the ICO hype was at peak and did some real good bounties but as most of them proved themselves fake, I stopped doing it. By then I realized it's all a waste of time until you find a bounty yourself and believe in the project.
Now I don't invest my time and effort in any project since 99% of them are scam.
So let these bounty hunters do what they want and let them realize their mistakes by themselves.
Only then they will actually stop doing it.

[Mighty_crypt]

Many bounty hunters still joining that ripple decentralized bounty, I'm not surprised, the truth is not many people on here likes reading, they come on here for bounties only and that's why they will never come out with flying color

You are right, but we need to spread these topics to make aware people. We shouldn’t let people spread the scam/shit projects! People are getting negative vibes only because of these scam projects! If a single newbie hunter learn from these threads, I think all the wise bounty hunters contribution will be successful!

[Kvalentine]

Some projects are not scams but just bad for crypto space because of their stupid use cases, things that don't really need to get on the blockchain, they are better for offline business, these type of projects will die quickly because there will be no demand at all

Bounty hunters are naturally known to be risk takers so we can't blame them from trying different bounties even without any assurance of getting paid accordingly. ,I recently joined one of the bounties being listed above but I have noticed that their whitepaper is questionable so I decided to leave and just look for a legit one. We only have to check every little detail about the bounty that we're joining.

[Ken_terrance]

At first I kept complaining about lack of bounty projects this year but after January 2020 many projects keep showing up, after doing research of few of them I came to understand that they are mostly fake projects, just like 2019, I'm not surprised, only few projects will be legit this year

It is true, but they should at least avoid these kind of projects.

There are other members that shares a good bounty campaign that they can join with. Or maybe try to apply with signature campaign in services section. There is a lot of ways that they can do just to avoid these kind of projects, they just need to find it.

Yeah. Let people do it. I think we on our own can only do what we can, we cannot stop scams, the only way is to stop feeding it. The only thing I would say is to continue to say it to newbies who ask, because if we even can help prevent one person from joining such a scam, it is a big contribution on our own. It doesn't take me even a few seconds to do it, if it helps great.

seems to be difficult to prevent all of it. shit project can not be known at the beginning except those who do look scam from the simplest elements. but we specifically won't be able to do more than that. except for each bounty hunter himself who makes improvements in their quality and ability to select and analyze projects before joining their campaign.

If almost all bounty projects are just a scam and waste our time, why do so many people continue to invest time and get involved in these projects? Perhaps you're quite unlucky when you joined the bounty in the early days, that makes you have a lot of negative with the project but you should be generous and have a more open view, very few bounty can guarantee success and pay us but as long as they still have a chance, we should spend time with them, instead of leaving time too empty and stopping all activity

That's a good thing for you. Finding a good campaign is very rare nowadays considering the sudden rise in number of scam projects. If you can see that the current bounty you are joining in has a good reputation and discipline to the participants, it wouldn't be that bad if you are going to be confident about it as long as it is accomplishing its duty to you.

We can really say that bounty projects suddenly disappeared for a while but now that its back, we can be assured that it is way more better and developed compared to what it was before. Last year was one of the worst year for bounties as scam projects keep on dominating the forum leading for the bounty hunters to lose trust and leave bounty hunting all of a sudden.

Of all the bounty campaigns you mentioned all the Bounty Manager (BM) is low rank - Jr member and not only that, they also have Neutral Trust.

Similar to kakatua promoting scam campaigns (plagiarized white paper)

If you can't find the right bounty then we should not participate that kind of crap bounty, but doing this kind of crap bounty means wasting time and data! I myself always keep a close eye on projects before work, try to find potential, find out about the team. If all things speak for me, then I start working. Try not to waste time on day after day. Even though I've been a victim of a lot of bad projects, I've found a lot of good work after that.

Did you find any good campaigns at this stage? I also search for bounty based on my experience, learn everything about the project but at the current stage I don't see any projects that are really good and worthy for us to participate in.
