Is it true that now only few bounties scams?

[Dr.Osh]

Frauds among ICO projects will often occur until states begin to organizationally regulate this type of activity. ICO teams must collect funds in cryptocurrency through bank accounts, then the level of fraud will drop sharply. Now we are witnessing a general drop in investor confidence in ICO projects, and against this background, the amount of fraud has seemed to decrease.

correct. even today, the level of scams on bounties has increased considerably. I am quite grateful when many monitoring teams always find whitepaper plagiarism, and also fake teams that make us avoidable like that. however, sometimes, projects that look good also don't always make our profit. however, we need to be careful when choosing bounties.

There used to be a lot of bounty scams and I decided not to post them since August 2019. I was very disappointed to see the bounty in 2019. A few days ago I met one of my friends who said that if there are fewer bounty scams now, is that true?

Most of the campaign actually turn out to be scam, so its really not safe to pick randomly a campaign to join with. I joined my campaign cause of the sure reward and liquidity on this coin but of course we cant expect a larger reward as some bounty only create a marketing to attract investors. It is unfortunate that most hunters are being fooled by many developer and project owners. I remember xdb campaign, that one is hidden gem but too sad to see that hunters are not compensated well according to the budget promised to them. My advise is stay away from campaigns handled by random user here but choose a reputable one that will surely pay you when the campaign end.

Clear rules are required for ICOs. If they intend to become a scam then they need to face and be responsible before the laws of each country. But getting this idea to come true is difficult. No country has so far fulfilled these terms

Have you asked you friend about the names of these successful bounties he or she mentioned to you? And who was the bounties manager?

he said HEX and he managed to make quite a lot of money and the bounty manager of the project was "Bounty Detective" so I tried to examine some of the bounties handled by "Bounty Detective" and found a HOMT that looked good

Currently there are many good bounty from Bounty Detective, you can refer to the campaign I'm promoting, or a few other campaigns like ARX bounty ... All have been listed in the exchange and have good volume

So you claim that Bounty Detective is a standard of quality or success? I'm not very familiar with BD, but seeing lots of bounties under their management makes think that they take every project for management.

Can you please name some projects under BD management, that got listed, altcoins prices in not on the bottom of the ocean and hunters received their reward?

No, scam bounties still exists on this forum, the good thing is bounty hunters are getting smart now, they've learn to look away when they come across shady bounty campaigns, I've seen many good bounty campaigns this year so far which is good but not until bounty hunters starts making good money from these bounties there is nothing much to say about 2020 bounties yet

[Greatchu]

Many bounties are still bad news, some bounties of today takes time, mostly 7 to 17 weeks so you won't know if a bounty is scam until the campaign is finally over, it's too early to know if a bounty is scam now because not every bounty will pay you instantly, some are even using COV-19 pandemic as excuse

I think only bounty campaigns are not yet registered at the exchange place, whereas when there are bounty campaigns that have prizes that can be directly sold at the exchange place or the prize is a token or coin that is already available at the exchange, as I am currently participating in a bounty campaigns that have prizes can be directly sold at the exchange place.

Maybe this friend of yours was very lucky with every bounties he promoted this year?? Many bounties are scam as we all know it and they still exists, don't be fooled, be ready to do research so that you won't be a victim of scam projects yourself

[Zemomtum]

Airdrops are ending,, bounty ate beginning to end also. The most legit now is social mining.

I disagreed with this statement that airdrop is ending. Airdrop is even more reliable than the bounty that you will spend several months promoting and not get listed in a year after, Airdrop has minimal tasks that you can finish under 30 minutes even though if they don't pay, it is still far better than months of hard work without nothing to show for it. I have earned more on airdrops in comparison to bounties but required a lot of research and due diligent

You're somehow right and i believe bounty scam will ever exist though it maybe little in the future but the bounty manager also have to play a huge part in making bounty campaign like the early 2016 through prefunding rather than chasing after their own cut because the issue of some scam bounty is the mistake from bounty manager ending.

Why are you listening to your friend you should do your own research, and not depend on your friend's analysis and no I don;t believe there are fewer scam project now, in fact there are still a lot of projects posted in the scam section and these are new projects, so  better check all the projects that you are joining.

[southerngentuk]

In 2020 a lot of bounty has been listed at the exchange, so I believe we will meet good campaigns and not scams. But there's still no guarantee of that, we need to wait another 1-2 months because most of the campaigns are still ongoing and it's not time to distribution yet.

Bounty campaigns that don't pay for reasons of a COV-19 pandemic are a bad campaign and the team is also lazy at work, because they don't look for additional solutions in these circumstances, because if the team is willing to pay they will always look for solutions for that.

[KaratX]

COV-19 is not an excuse for a project not to launch or pay bounty hunters, this means the team are either not serious or are just too lazy to work, if you've already promoted such project just have it in mind that you may never get paid

We actually have not been able to assess the bounty in 2020, because 2020 has only run until May. So the assessment is not yet
too accurate, but 5 bounties I have participated in this year, only one scams. This proves this 2020 indeed not as bad as the bounty
in 2019, unfortunately this year there hasn't been a bounty that gives big rewards.

[preikaler]

if someone from the beginning of 2020 always did their research well and was always fortunate to join a good bounty they would say if the 2020 bounty was better than 2019. but if on the contrary they would still say 2020 was the same as 2019. and scammers were still hanging around and always will be

We can assess until now, and I'd say bounty is not attractive at the moment, but you are right, we are just going to finish the first half of the year with one month remaining, and there's still a next half to finish, and last time when bitcoin pump, it didn't take half of a year, it only need 3 months and everything went crazy, especially the altcoins market and bounty hunting was a lucrative way of making money that time.

[geast]

This year i know some few projects that blossomed that ran bounty. I follow only few managers, and projects with high ranked Bitcointalk member as manager.

[Ifemini]

Be in 2018, 2019, or 2020 bounties scam.
During 2018, it was prominent in the forum, bounties who exitscam after icoes, leaving everyone at loss.
Even last year, the bitagro coin also exit scam, and publicly mentioned theirselves to be scam.

Dyor to reduce the rate of scam bounties you would be joining.

There was a lot of good campaign this year and it looks like so many people didn't do deep research. This year is much better than last year consider the market has been recovering again and that's also bringing the demand to run the bounty.
