What happened in the bounty program?

[tukagero]

Almost all projects scammed!!

Just a matter of research and you will find legit bounty I still see 5-10 bounty campaigns running that 95% seems legit if you are worried about token with no value some bounty has been listed on exchanges try to search them.  

Yep youre right ,searching before joining is a must,not just that you saw huge bounty reward you will join immediately. If the bounty has low allocation reward pool  but its 100 legit paying , then go join on that bounty.

How do you even know that it is "100 legit paying"? The payment is done after the bounty completes, the projects token gets listed and so on. It used to take like several months upto a year to get those things done and some hunters would end up forgetting how many bounties they had joined in the first place.

Low allocation does not mean a thing. A failure to raise funds and/or bankruptcy can always occur and the investors will suffer for that, so will the bounty hunters.

Thus the craze fro bounty hunting gradually decreased and without newer methods to secure payments for hunters probably it will never come back up again in a larger scale.

There is never a guarantee. Even if the project looks great on paper, even if they do everything right seemingly.... if they want to screw you over, they'll screw you over.
Usually by a means of tokens swap, or some weird exchange listing against zimbabwe dollars.

In the end, each bounty campaign is a risk, both for manager and a hunter. Difference if that risk is 10% or 90%

I disagree, not all of the project I have joined are scam and it will just depend if they are really legit and analyzing the team behind those projects. One thing that you can check if there are not scamming people.

If they are not offering pre-sale offer, token sale(price is high), and the team are all fakes and edited pcitures from somewhere on the internet.

Not actually a risk since you will never use any money to invest in a project .you are just doing a bounty which is you will help them to promote in many different social media sites.
The time you used in promotion will be wasted if you are participating in bounty and that the only thing you will never  have back the time you used for promotion to .
 For manager mostly they are paid in popular crypto currency the risk in them is the bad feedback they will have if they promote scam bounty.

Effort and resources are the main things that you would waste up as a bounty hunter and we know that time is gold and precious and to think that if we had used those time and effort

on other things then we might able to utilize it and might be beneficial for us thats why i do really say that bounty hunting nowadays is totally shit and waste of time but there were still people whom do continue
on engaging such stuff.

For managers side or issue then its normal to have those negative feedback basing on what they have done.

The project may not be a scam. But the project may very well be a failure.

Scams were there but many projects failed to reach anything worth to continue development and they took a wrong path, that is selling the project to someone else and pointing their middle finger to the investors who then raged about their tokens. This is effect of the hyped up ICO market and the fact that these tokens are not legalized securities but a gamble.

If they are not offering pre-sale offer, token sale(price is high), and the team are all fakes and edited pcitures from somewhere on the internet.

Well that is a scam but many are often disguised to evade such detection methods. But failed projects are the major ones having not paid their bounties even after raising some funds because they refunded them. Scams never did raise any funds.

From the perspective of the bounty hunter both are same. But they need to think logically about what they are spending their time on.

Do not forget,,, it is the intention that counts. Even if the project never actually cheated anyone, but if they never actually built anything or tried to develop anything even without funds, then they were always going to scam people. Think about it, actually a project does not need ICO to do stuff if they were serious.

[kaseygriffin]

It happened because the project failed to raise capital for development. So they don't have the money to pay bounty hunters or just give tokens of no value. Do not be too dependent on bounty because you will die with it

[pilosopotasyo]

Almost all projects scammed!!  What happened in this sector? The trusted bounty manager didn't launch any project. There is no legit project. I don't know why this disaster? It's too horrible for bounty hunters.

I understand where you are coming from I have five campaigns and all of them are shitcoins or dead before it hit the market, just lucky that I'm out of the ICO bounty campaign they just don't work anymore, it's just a waste of time and effort, ICO and bounty hunting is now in a very bad situation right now.

Even if they raised capital these developers will still run leaving bounty hunters with nothing, it's preferable to join bounty campaign where the an independent bounty manager is the one escrowing the tokens so what ever happen the bounty hunters are guaranteed to get the bounty rewards whatever happened to the campaign..

[asyakashi]

I have confidence that there is still valuable in the campaign. we need to know some managers who are serious about managing real projects and paying.
like bubalex or detective. they are very selective in choosing campaigns.

[Shef198911]

good companies are still present, you just need to trust only your selection, do not rely on BM, and take each company that appears, read and check for plagiarism whitepaper, check the command, see what the goal of the company and decide to participate or not.

[tukagero]

There are still good projects out there but they intend not to conduct bounty campaigns as they are as y sure about thier project will go mainstream even without the help of bounty  campaign participants.

[inanilujimi]

Bounty programs have long been a scam tool, so don't be surprised if it's hard to find real projects right now.
although there are some who pay properly for the time being, know that it's all luck alone.
if you feel your luck is still here why not try it.
make bounty just a bonus in crypto don't make it as your main source of livelihood.

How are you doing your research? Because this is very important, I'm not a pro bounty hunter like many but I'm been very careful when choosing bounty project to promote, also I heard about few bounty managers with good reputations, you can start from there

[MonsterV]

there is much legit bounty for bounty hunter, just make sure that bounty was managed by famous bounty manager on this forum, try to avoid bounty that manage by project team because most of them are have high potential to become scam or shit project, sometime project bounty that manage by their team is always extend their bounty and postpone distribution.

Thats the thing i hate the most, extending the bounty campaign and then postpone the distribution until the rewards wont be distributed. Telegram group will be limited in writing message until no one is allowed to post, bounty hunters can no longer say what they want to say on that project.

Not the project that getting scammed, but we are as the participant. You need to know that even since a long time ago, there is always so many scam project which is helding a bounty program, this is a matter of how you analyze the information and value of the project before participating into it, if you care enough to think about that, I believe you will be find more decent bounty that actually paying the participants.

Many trusted bounty managers failed to bring new projects to bounty hunters this year and it's really not their fault, right now only bubbalex and bounty detective are bringing in new bounty projects, even the old bounty king arteezy isn't doing very well anymore but few projects are still good
