Forget bounties and Airdrops

3. find bugs in the system of many new projects

In fact, this is the way to become money that is needed right now. it's just that, this really requires special abilities. Well, there are lots of good ways to make big profits out there. it's just that, because of limited abilities, people prefer to support bounties and airdrops.

Here is reasons why I hate bounty these days, many developers has been milking the bounty hunters and including the innocent investors. Check this out for clarifications: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5259635.0. They have all moved investors funds, and made the bounty hunters work in vain. Don't trust them for they are all the same in this industry, hold your hard earned money and buy bitcoin for long-term, don't be foolish towards their ICO and ieos. Don't participate on projects that are not ready to pay with top 10 coins, hunters stop before they consume us all.

There are still good projects willing to pay Bounty participants with a reasonable reward, not all Bounty projects are scam. We have to really research and be selective when we want to join Bounty campaign. I personally will continue to join Bounty campaign that I am sure will be successful.

Yes those things you mentioned can bring money actually but everybody cannot be a programmer. If everybody should stop taking part in bounty, then it will get to those developers also. Developers need hunters to create awareness about their innovation.

The biggest money making slot in crypto space is to be

1. a developer
2. build crypto wallets for new projects
3. find bugs in the system of many new projects

yes some paid for security breaching and all that stuff, rendering professional services is the best way to make money in crypto space now

These mentioned jobs or sideline are all good however not all average crypto joe can do it easily. I know that airdrops and bounties are really irritating and its not that worthy anymore for others but the needs for that lists are skills and talents which are not easy to acquire. The earning there is sufficient enough for the works did and not comparable to bounty.

It's very true, that hardly can someone find an airdrop or bounty campaigns with a good reward nowadays because of lots of unscrupulous activities in the space.  Though there are still good projects, but extremely few.  The point is that, it's only very few people that can do those things you listed above.  Majority of the people in the space still depend on the bounties and airdrops and it is our believe that better days will still come as we also try in upgrading ourselves.

The way I think, choose quality and tested because the cost of quality and time will not be wasted if you are selective and end up in the final profit value you get from what you do.

I can't forget Forget Bounties and Airdrops because only that way I can make money even if it's not a large amount. To be the one you mentioned requires expertise and I don't have it

Bounty hunters has a participation for the project to succeed but the point is its hard to find a good one and chances are you will end up in a failed or scam projects if you didnt do an extensive research. So if we want to earn in a reliable way we need to excel by learning new things like programming. Hunters who have a high educational background can easily switch to this path and use their skills.

I will never forget the bounty and airdrop until now because airdrop and bounty are my main income although now the bounty and airdrop are down
I still believe airdrop and bounty will go back to the way they used to be

[kaneki007]

Now bounty and airdrop are just side jobs and I'm not full time on both. Maybe back then when I was working hype full time because there were so many campaigns going on and there were still many legitimate projects, there were no distribution delays. And now I'm focused on being a developer and making lots of portfolios.

Only qualified personals can make money through all these points of yours and thats something many still can't do, 90% of people on here are more into

1. Bounty managing
2. Bounty promotions
3. Airdrop hunting
4. Trading

They find these more easier than others

[erickastella]

I am a little against your statement, not all of them can have the expertise, can indeed learn, but it's not that easy, in my opinion airdrop and bounty are an alternative way for those who are new to cryptocurrency, and in my opinion airdrop and bounty hunters also help in the project which he followed, thus making their market wide by holding airdrops and bounties

[Rampagoe004]

Indeed for now being a bounty hunter is very difficult to get satisfactory results and now many projects that no longer pay us in accordance with the expectations that have been given by the team who manages the project and now many projects scam so that the bounty hunter can not get the slightest result, maybe now it's time to switch into as you say.

If wishes were horses, beggars would ride. You forget that those jobs listed are tech related and that not everyone is tech sauvy? I, for one, am not a tech guy but would give my treasured sleep to learn any of the three listed. However, people don't see bounties are jobs. I will like to think they see them as past time engagements. But everybody would be happy to see whatever engagements they indulge progress or fetch them some cash and that's how it feels going into bounties.

As for airdrops the OP mentioned; it's like playing faucets. So much expectations with dashed hope.

If you want to switch from the project bounty to another place, why don't you do it first? because scam projects don't only happen this year, but in previous years there were also many projects that experienced scams, so if you are going to switch to another place at this time, in my opinion this is already a bit late although you can just do it happily heart.

That is the risk we face today as bounty hunters but if we have a better job then it is better to leave the bounty because this is not how real your work I have we must continue to research before joining the bounty campaign. The current allocation does not determine the results that will be obtained at the end later.

Unfortunately, most bounty hunters and airdrop participants do not have the skills to perform the stuff you listed. Most hunters are participating because they give less effort in the bounty tasks presented. If they do have the technical skills as you enumerated, they are better off developing there own projects.

[oriontab]

The best earners are those who build something in cryptocurrencies- developers. Because the field is relatively new, and there is a dearth of professional blockchain developers. The demand is even going to be as the space develops

In some point there are so many scammed that happened with bounty projects, some pay with
tokens that don't have any value while
others really don't give anything and simply runaway when they've got money from poor investors
who take the risk of putting an investment.
But, from those who are still willing, studying and doing the good research saves you from this messed,
as you can simply pick project that bring higher chance of results.

[istiak2277]

I have still hope for bounties. It's true that it's not that profitable anymore but I think it's one of the easiest way to earn some good money till now. There is still some project that are good and holding those token for sometimes can give a good amount of money. It's very hard to be a developer and those jobs you are talking about can not be done by many peoples. So I want to stay with bounty.
