90% Of Project Bounties Are Scams

[SaidNurs]

Indeed, if viewed from another angle, the bounties project of the campaign delivered was less heard by investors but more inclined to other campaign participants. But in another corner this campaign is an effective thing to popularize a project so that a project can be known by many people.
It is very true that we are like dealing with extraterrestrials, this project starting in 2018 on average does not produce anything, like the points you said above as not listed on the exchange.

Yes, most bounties are a scam, But some bounties very good result same like tokoin Bounty a huge profit, same this  ixinium (XXA) a big profit ,I hope nowadays dacx exchange good result. Yes mostly scam same like Canlead , drifee ,Idlv, Mycrojobs  etc. sure time is very precious.

Indeed for now many projects that do not pay the participants of the bounty and I also experienced such a thing, in the year 2019 is indeed an average of many projects that are not successful and we as a bounty hunter feel disappointed because a lot of time has been lost just because of the scam project, but in this year there began to change because there are some projects can get satisfactory results.

From 2017 - 2020 bounties are getting worse day by day. I really struggle to find a genuine project even already had a research i still cant pick one. Is following a good bounty manager history still legit? Im done doing research to be honest.

I agree, Since the trend of bounty campaigns, instead of having development in bounties, we are now experiencing the worse. It is rare to find a legit and better bounty compared to what we have experience in the year 2016-2017.
Following a good bounty manager is still good but I doubt that every campaign they manage is still legit. There are too many good to be true projects out there, you must be good enough to find one legit project.

It is true that this year it is increasingly difficult to find legitimate projects, in my opinion even 95% of projects are scams. Even though
the situation is like this, I remain optimistic that the future of the bounty will improve. We just need to be patient, wait for the price of
bitcoin to improve and hope it will have an effect project bounties also improved. About 5 projects that I participated in have proven to be
one of them are scams. So be careful in choosing projects.

What is the plus of our project, the fact that the investor can sell his tokens to the company from the first day, without waiting for the exchange, and taking into account the fact that the investor receives 0.7% of the amount in the account according to the compound interest principle, even very good profit is obtained

Not every bounty manager has the competence to distinguish a good project from a bad one.
I do not agree that 90% of the bounty scam companies are more likely that most of these projects are not already solvent at the stage of idea and marketing.

The bounty manager only does the work of his superiors so when there is a scam bounty it is not the fault of the bounty manager but the error of the developer who cannot be trusted and does not value the bounty hunter participants by not paying or when paid but the price is given on the market there is no support from the developer so that the price rises, so most of this is the fault of the developer.

Look at what the DT members are doing on the forum with similar managers in whose work a "random" scam project was discovered.
They instantly receive a note in their trust, which they do not remove later, which means that this is a mark on the manager’s reputation forever.
If you take responsibility for conducting companies, then it depends on you whether this is an honest company or another scam.

I don't know if it's intended that way but yeah most of the projects  bounty are turning out to be that way. Sometimes the project members prefer to extended the bounty duration just when the bounty is about to end by a month which is extremely unfair . And sometimes they just don't give bounty .

[Retainly_Collie]

Yes, It's all getting worthless day by day the unfortunate thing is mostly bounty participants especially newbies are not trying to understand and getting involve in the bounties which are absolutely worthless and their useless attempts are creating hype for scam bounties which is not a good sign for dedicated and creative participants.

   I don't think there are just newbies involved in promotion of any bounty that appear here
on forum. Many times I saw how senior members and some lower ranks promote bounties
that are scams, but they continue to write their reports in bounty topic. Even after the end
of bounty they continue with promotion! They don't read the topic, they don't do the most
simple research, they don't even open a site of bounty project. But they cry when they are not
paid. In most bounties I participated I got paid, except one!

I think you don't necessarily care about their rankings. They may have high ratings in this forum, but they have no experience of bounty selection. In 2019 I saw a lot of cases like that, they joined the shitbounty and promoted it. They then weep and blame these scam projects

[bitcoin31]

We are knew that most of the projects since in the 2018 upto 2020 are scam because many scammer are enter crypto to scam us and use us. They are going to use us by doimg promotinv their project and the all benefits is only to them because the bounty hunters did not earn money if the project are scam and the worst of that is the investors who invest more money .  So we need to be careful of what project we promoted and invested.

And sometimes you just forget that you are expecting a bounty from a certain campaign.
If most of the bounty campaign will extend the distribution and you'll fail to monitor them timely, you might miss it as sometimes they will add some rules to qualify for the distribution and if you miss the period they give, this could mean goodbye to your effort.

Right, scams target you. During 2018-2019 there were indeed many scam projects, it could be due to fraudsters in disguise, it could be due to poor market conditions, and the changing ICO trend. Successful projects with bounty programs are few, such as CEDEX, Content Protocol, while others delay distribution and rewards, and eventually disappear.
We must realize that trends always change. We can still get money from the bounty, but it takes patience and more effort. A good bounty at this time, in my opinion, is the weekly payment in BTC or eth, the rest we must be more prepared to be patient and accept the risk.

Not just the bounty manager alone that needs to check the legitimacy of the project he's going to handle but most of all, we the bounty hunters because scam projects are not really worth of our time spending. There are a lot of projects that seem to be very potential at first but when it almost ends, suddenly it breaks the line and turns out into a scam one. This is the sad reality we are facing at the moment.

I don't agree with the trend part of your post due to the increasing number of bounty scammers and exit scam projects. Finding good bounty is hard, even if the hunter convince himself about the existence of good bounty, catching one is big deal due to the limits by bounty managers. Effort is not rewarded in the delaying bounty distribution and many tricky options are used for increasing the time delay before the real distribution phase.

[DevilSlayer]

That is why ignoring the bounty campaigns can help us to maximize our time and effort, I've been scammed due to participating in bounty campaigns and for me it is the rigt decision if I will just ignore it. There are legit bounties but it is hard to find especially if most of the projects nowadays are full of shit and scams. It is hard to find legit bounty and for me you need a time of researching.

I miss the old good days where altcoin bounties are really worth it. No extensions, no KYC, no lock time and ready to be traded. ICOs had died because of the number of projects that are scam. That is why most investors are avoiding bew projects. Even thos projects who are legitimate and dedicated to dekiver good services and products are having a hard time gathering funds because of the fear ICO scam had brought.

I strongly agree with your opinion that many ICOs have become scams, so many are starting to leave even though it is not up to 90% because there are still some that are also good and can succeed. the time is quite long also the period of the scam project has occurred and continues to grow can not be completed because there may be no joint participation to be able to reduce so that no scam project. true your words really miss the good times when altcoin is very valuable and well valued, hopefully things like this can come back again even though now the epedemic corona is also disturbing.

[Sirait]

2018 and below is ICO's best year, 2019 and above and maybe onwards ICO will no longer be profitable, it did not occur to me that ICO in the future would be the same as ICO in 2018 below

investing in coins that have entered the CMC list are the best at the moment, don't give your money to con artists

[suryapro]

Who can find out for sure whether this project is a con artist or not. we all don't know. sometimes if you see the concept of a peni project [u also have a concept that is no less good than a real project. all we have to do is find and select projects in this forum, by reading, researching very carefully

[shakerbitcoin]

Re: 90% Of Project Bounties Are Scams, I'd rather reserve judgement for later and I'll just leave it all to speculation for now on whether or not it's actually true.

Nonetheless, that's why I stay away and not bother myself with doing any sort of bounties, to avoid any heartbreaks and disappointments later.
