escrow doesn't necessarily mean the project developer wont break their promise if they choose too.. well still for now escrow is the safest bet for bounty hunters.. alot of shit going on in the bitcointalk bounty community as of recent
As long as the dev can send the payment first to the trusted escrow and then that will never disappoint the hunters. the problem is when the team was keeping the reward rather than wanna try to send it to the escrow. Bounty detective said they use escrow but I'm still confused that they don't because ARCS bounty was over and the team failed to distribute still, I sense they are waiting for the project team to send the tokenS

The only thing escrow do better is assured payment to bounty hunters, escrow is not quality project, what I'm more interested in is quality project or the bounty project, escrow or not I don't care much, sincerity teams will always pay bounty hunters fairly without any dubious stunts

I think if there would be escrowed funds for a new bounty project, many bounty hunters would definitely joining and engaging in to that bounty campaign since the rewards fund is escrowed, it can enlightened bounty hunters to participate in such project.

The bounty hunters don't have any collective bargaining power, and this is the reason why the project teams are treating them like beggars. The problem here is that there are too few projects and too many bounty hunters. At least a section of the bounty hunters are ready to join even the most exploitative campaigns. They think that it is important to gain some experience, even if that means that they may go unrewarded.

It's becoming more harder for new projects team to keep their promises to bounty hunters, some even said bounty hunters are getting free tokens for free, meaning bounty hunters aren't recognized for their work, I suggest all bounty managers to start using ESCROW.
I believe with escrow payment will be guaranteed, team won't be able to go back on their words, bitwings for example, after a complete year of waiting for payment they decide to do another audit on spreadsheet and they falsely accused bounty hunters without any proof.
Bounty Detective is the only bounty manager using escrow, if many bounty managers start using escrow it will be better.
The issue of projects disappointment on bounty hunters is getting popular lately, I remember digitalbits refusal today pay hunters after a very long period of waiting, audit and re-audit. It was quite unfortunate even the bounty managers were affected and had to join the bounty hunters to condemn the act. I feel for hunters who struggle to get data and after the whole process, still get disappointed. The best way out is for the bounty manager to stress the need for Escrow, which guarantees the reward for hunters and ensure that the agreement or contract is not breached.

Bounties that have escrow have payment guarantees by bounty managers, but bounties now rarely use escrow services because they have the intention to reduce allocations or won't even distribute tokens.
True, they intend to postpone the delivery or wait for the price to drop many times and they will distribute it. I've met a lot of bounty like this year, these are really evil intentions and abusive bounty hunter. Escrow will be a lot better, but it does not guarantee the project will succeed

Escrow is needed for assurance of the bounty payment, if there's an escrow there is an assurance that the bounty campaign will pay the hunters so i always try to do bounty campaign that has an escrow so that my work wont be wasted and i earn token as a payment for my work. I believe that escrow is always a great way of making a campaign for assurance.

Thanks to escrow this freedom marketplace got confidence. Personally, when I am paying with cryptocurrencies I always find an escrow because I had a bad experience from the past. Scammers abuse the inability to refund payment. ![Cry](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cry.gif)

Escrow will be a lot better, but it does not guarantee the project will succeed it should work the same as when they try to advertise to big platform like google ads, someone must as act as enscrow to ensure that no parties will be dissapointed inside the deal. those reasoning which main purpose is to let the bounty receive less what they should shall be called as an abusive act.

I love to participate on Bounty Detective's bounties because of the escrow system they are implementing and this will boost the morale of hunters participating on such bounties because payments are guaranteed at end. Escrow system was long gone and missing it hence i have been a bounty hunter for a long time, it's a good feeling that to see it again now. Hoping for other bounty managers to adopt it again to relive the glory days of bounty hunting.

the bad news is that the bounty detective is promoting the kingcasino scam project, even though they guarantee tokens from the project but see now they are helping the scamer.we do not know how much the total loss experienced by investors. I hope they will be more selective in choosing projects to promote.

It caused by the manager didn't wanna try to discuss about that but some managers have already started to do this to make its participants to get what they have deserved before. The scam projects will always try to think how to fool the hunters.

Escrow of bounty reward is good, but it is not a bare minimum for a good Bounty, GeomaDAO was an escrowed Bounty, but seems the pandemic has flawed its growth. While Cartesi excelled without being escrowed, a paying Bounty will always pay, either escrowed or not which is why you must dyor and join project that worths it for promotion It still really depends on the projects and the team running behind it, escrowing rewards might sound beautiful to our ears but it does not make any sense if the projects or the teams don't seem to make it right to the project to develop and be succesful. Escrow is a good thing but better implements something that would guarantee hunters to get benefited from what they have worked for.

Bounty Detective is the only bounty manager using escrow, if many bounty managers start using escrow it will be better.
perhaps an update is needed to avoid frequent manipulations, but all of them need quite intense cooperation because problems like this cannot be solved instantly. it is great to be able to get updated information not to play down the role of others in each project. I do not understand that what you say has been done by the Bounty Detective, of course it is very good because there is an update created. but if many accept a project it is certainly not good because many will be harmed, bounty detective will be able to do that without realizing it because it will make a priority scale. I have also heard that the old bounty manager will return again, that is, bounty portals to be able to return to take part in several new projects and declare that all those who work will certainly get the rights from their work. this is of course new news which is very good and needs to be supported, especially as the old bounty manager (bounty portals) is already very trusted.

Escrow actually does not guarantee that the project will succeed, say the manager does the escrow but the project that you are promoting is a scamer, it's the same as you get a token that has no value. so more important is to pay attention to the project handled by the manager because if the project is good they will most likely pay you. yes although there are some projects that do not pay, or cut the prize of the hunter.

Yes, there are still bounty managers who use escrow even though only one or two people do that, but for now there are still things we can safely follow in terms of trusting a bounty program, and everyone also hopes for the future. all bounty campaigns will come up better than now.

I beg to disagree, Julerz escrowed bounty tokens for bounty hunters and all bounty hunters have received their tokens, some managers are escrowing the bounty token which is good, but if the team is trusted and they show good will it's ok not to do escrow especially if the bounty manager is part of the team, like what Oikos has done.
Both are good bounty manager who already escrow funds for bounty hunters, but for julerz many of bounty managed by him fail and now he stops as manager, different with bountydetective almost all campaign already listed in the market and succeeded, so for me bountydetective better than julerz. Yes Oikos is trusted but don't forget not all project will do the same, so escrow will avoid disappointment

Escrow or not I will continue to promote any project that's good enough to me, not all good bounty projects will be escrowed and even bounty detective that claimed they are using escrow makes it look like a lie, I don't believe in the escrow strategy

I guess not many projects are visible at the moment. some of it ends up being a scam, but I guess not as much as before. besides, bounty hunter, I think now most won't be easy to join the campaign carelessly. past experiences have given everyone learning.
It is indeed undeniable by bounty hunters, because every year the bounty campaign conditions are always different and changing, and specifically for this year I see there are several projects that are very worthy to be promoted by bounty participants, but if we compare it with last year, I think it's still pretty good for this year in terms of bounty campaign.
