Is IEO not becoming to be worst than ICO, any future for bounty hunters?

[BRODIN]

as I know that both IEO and ICO are forms of project marketing, they launch a project through IEO & ICO as well as assistance from project promoters such as prize hunters. and the worst in a project when the product is not going well.

We can't blame IEO fundraising for everything that's happening around bounty hunters maltreatment, in fact it has nothing to do with IEOs, IEO is nothing but a project marketing strategy, scammers are to be blame for everything, they create fake projects and use bounty hunters to promote their fake projects

[cytpoway121]

On a rather honest basis, the future of bounty hunters is not dependent on ieo or ico or any form of crowdfunding events.
The core problem faced by bounty hunters this days is from insincere, non transparent and scam project team/developers.

If you look across bounty programs this year from Hybrix, to Hydax, to Gold, to trading bounties, you will realize that marketers (bounty hunters) effort are needed for massive promotion of projects irrespective of crowdfunding status

Bounty season will still return but no one knows when, that's why it's not always good to give up, scam projects are many than good projects for sure but it doesn't make sense to give up

Im not surw if there is a trivial season for bounty. Its like an on/off button, there are particular times when the bounty campaign are good and there is also a period where everything does not have any worth to promote. But majority is on the negative part cause we can see how those new process IEO depicts the picture of a unsucessful way to give hunters some precious rewards. Most of hunters doing campaign are not being paid even with the success of the project promoted means that team are just playing dumb on them. Example of this is the latest project of digital bits that dont pay the hunters and just keep delaying the promised payment.

that's why bitcoin paying campaigns are better than most token or coin paying campaigns. from those hundreds of projects in the bounties section running various bounty programs, you can only count on your fingers how many of them will be valuable in the market or projects that will make it to the exchange. IEOs fate are becoming like ICOs already. the only thing sure about IEOs is the listing in the exchange right after the sale.

These methods of fundraising are not legal securities and so even if they are scam there is no authority to punish them. People who never realized this have been fooled into buying them and so did the bounty hunters.

The idea of "maltreatment" comes from contempt of the hunters and is a wrong term. It is wrong because the hunter were never actually promised anything. It is a fundraising that too in a fake manner, do you expect to get paid if they fail? If you think yes, then you are also being fooled.

In other words, the days of bounty hunting is long gone. If you want to invest money, buy bitcoin and also invest in sectors other than cryptocurrency because the markets are bearish now. But of course if you have money at hand enough to spend and invest during the crisis.

Probit has became just another paid to list site. Probit did had a spectacular growth in the past and was a bit selective on hosting IEOs but with the increased volume, they are giving more and more unsuccessful IOEs. The IEO business might be good for porbit at the time but it's going to hurt the reputation of Probit for a long time if they don't stop promoting anything and everything that provides them money.

[binhvo1505]

You should know that IEO and ICO are both capital calls but different forms. there will be no better one, we need to choose potential projects to invest, if we choose wrong we have to pay dearly.
Especially for IEO, if you choose to have one of the bad exchanges like Yobit, Latoken, P2PB2B, Vindex or Probit, you will definitely lose money. because the projects listed there are all shit projects and have no future.

[lienfaye]

There's nothing much difference between ICO and IEO, the fact that if you end up in a legit project then you'll be rewarded otherwise its a lesson learned. Bounty hunters should not rely on their income in ieo or as a bounty hunter, there are other ways to earn decent money like investing in top coins, trading or getting a real job. Gone are the days when bounty hunting is still profitable.

Why would you participate in a bounty where bounty reward is not escrowed? If the rewards were escrowed, you would certainly got your rewards on due time. Most of the projects now lock some part of the bounty rewardstill a certain date and the project owner dump their bag during that time, for bounty hunters, nothing remain anymore.

[Farma]

for some of the IEOs I witnessed in the popular market, the prices actually went up very high. but, if it has decreased a few months after that, it looks like the project has experienced a downtrend. ICO / IEO is only a sales technique, not to make the project a success. however, when the project was running, it was successful, but to maintain it, it was not the effect of ICO, or IEO anymore. other than that, IEO sales techniques are pretty good at the moment, it's just that many use them for their personal needs.

I's very rare to see a bounty campaign that escrowed the reward. the majority of campaign didn't wanna use escrow to give guarantee to the hunters. It's not his fault but that's the developer's fault.
The result depends on our luck whether you get a trusted team or scammer.

You will receive it on time, but not necessarily listed in the exchange. I have been involved with several escrow projects, but in the end they were still not listed on the exchanges. Finally, there are junk and useless tokens, it's best to join the bounty listed at the exchange.

Funny how they justify the 100% bonus with bitcoin halving.
In the end, those guys are snakes that will always shift the blames to someone else. I think bounty hunters today need to allocation their time and effort toward projects that really worth it.

Agree, there's no need to spend too much time on bounty because now there are no really good projects. Just doing research and selecting 1-2 campaigns is enough for the time being.

Initial exchange Offering cannot be over emphasized, it's much better that initial coin offering,reason being that with it, project that raise required fund needed easily but that will be dependent on the exchange used, also IEO doesn't put an end to creating jobs for bounty hunters, bounty hunters help in creating awareness which attracts more investor to the project so there is future for bounty hunters.

[Ryushin]

IEO is better than ICO, it's just that we have so many interested investors back in 2017 when ICO was good, I wish that IEO came first instead of ICO, once people knew that IEO success is on the exchange capability they will stay and trust tope exchanges instead

[KaratX]

I'm just starting my bounty journey, coming across many bounties complains is not helping, I already start feeling like I'm wasting my time but thanks to few projects that still pays if not I won't be promoting any project today, it will be a different side of view if no single projects are paying again

If that's come true , altcoin market will be more centralized rather than decentralized because of the controls of the top exchanges and top exchanges also can manipulate the whole ecosystem of a token/coin by playing the pump-dump game. But your opinion is also right as we saw the worst market in 2019 and it's for both investors and bounty hunters. Now, all the crypto lovers are waiting for the bull runs. Also, probit is just a shady one for IEOs.

 I was an investor in 2017 I am not goint to lie, I have spent a lot of time and money on investing into ICO's back in the day but I was lucky, even though there was like only 2 coins that I invested which became valuable and probably like 10 of them started to worth close to nothing almost instantly, the money I made from those 2 covered all the expenses I had with the other ones and basically that was the reason why everyone invested.

 If you could find like 2 or 3 good coins to invest you could invest into 15-20 coins and still make a profit, that was the mindset we all had and it actually worked as well, plus if the coin you invested became not so well, you got out quickly before it became nothing, you didn't hold it for years. So you lost a bit but you gained a lot since ICO's were famous for going x1000 without much trouble.

 That greed and thirst became the reason why ICO's went down as well.
