KYC for bounty hunters

[Hamphser]

I have seen so many bounty people make multiple accounts and cheat bounty campaign, is it not possible for forum or bounty managers to make kyc compulsory for bounty guys?
Those who have done kyc will get instant approval

If we can escrow our KyC to remain being intact and Private why Not?the problem is We knew how Valuable KYC in online world,This can be Sold in decent account multiple times That's why we tend to Deny Giving this Publicly .

And regarding Bounty Cheating?This is what needs to stopped but i believe that requiring KYC is not the best solution because this breaks our rights here in forum to have privacy.

Escrowed KYC files or documents? It would be just all the same as long you do entrust it to 3rd party then tendency or risk of sell out identity would be always there.
Also kyc isn't really that for bounty hunters even though abuse is there but there are other ways to prevent or lessen it.It will depend on how the manager will handle it out.

solving abuses and cheating is nearly impossible but it can be handled out.Its not just really right for advertisers would also be asked out by this requirement.

Abuse can be lessen though but they shouldn't really be ending with this kind of option.

KYC for bounty isn't worthy IMO. You never know what they will do with your document ID

That's why many people aren't interested with bounty which need KYC first

You know many individuals have been using bounty hunters details to do evil and is very wrong to reveal ID for Bounty. If is an exchange is possible and understandable to operate with so because it requires moving out funds.

Well that's at least more safer than Letting the manager and Dev handles the KYC of every individuals,and it can be keep safe and locked in one place though that will need lot's of work,
But my Point is if the Bounty will really implement that then there is an option because we knew how Hunters rely on Hunting even that they are being scammed multiple times yet stays on that job because of Living a life here.

solving abuses and cheating is nearly impossible but it can be handled out.Its not just really right for advertisers would also be asked out by this requirement.

Actually Even managers sometimes are part of the cheating ,and besides as long as they are doing the Job in Best qualities why not just let them.instead of witch hunting Look for their work quality and Don't pay and Kick those will not comply with the standards.

Abuse can be lessen though but they shouldn't really be ending with this kind of option.

I will forever declined that rules,because i still believe that is why we are all here is for the privacy and respect.

if project owners require kyc for bounty hunters then it is their responsibility to not reveal the user's ID and other data. many Individuals using bounty hunters details to cheat bounties because those details are publically available. they can easily copy them like social media accounts details.
but kyc is not something to be available in public.
personally I am not in fever of KYC. there are other ways to eliminate cheaters.

I've never seen a case of a KYC request to avoid the participants' abuse. The rest, KYC is more intended because bounty hunters will become project token holders under compliance. Like it or not, it will prevail and must be obeyed. Unfortunately, most of these requests came late and were deemed to violate previous agreements.

starting from last year almost 80% of the bounty required KYC with this rule made it easier for other people to detect multiple accounts in one kyc, on the other hand not all bounty participants like this rule because they have to fill in personal data on people they don't know

There are also so many scam projects that already stolen thousand of KYC from the hunters. That's why they didn't like the verification. I can mention some like Clip X, Jinbi, and many more scam bounties that already stolen the documents from the hunters.

Yeah it is a both a boon and bane at the same time. I am one of the opinion that KYC should not be asked here but the reason why they ask is because the forum allows users to make more than one account and there are people who are cheating campaigns by making more than one and using them to participate in that campaign.

Said project would see a decrease in quality of posts/articles or contribution and a lack of being available to other users who might be willing to participate too because someone used their multiple accounts to block all the seats.

From a bounty participants perspective that is bad.

I must have been in different bounties or searched them in different forum section, but I rarely find a bounty this or previous year that ask to pass KYC. None of bounties I've participated in, asked me to pass KYC after it has finished also.
Asking hunters to pass KYC as a method to detect multiple accounts is not the best solution. All the documents can be bought or found in google. And when in past I was in a campaigns that asked to pass KYC, I remember that they did not ask to send a picture holding your ID (like exchanges usually do). That is why hunter can send anyone else ID and still cheat...

The problem is that KYC scares off a huge number of bounty hunters. You can do KYC, but then the advertising of the project will not be so good. Bounty is usually done for a large number of hunters, trying to capture as many people as possible, and KYC will only scare them away. But this is the case with small, unpopular companies. Popular KYC doesn't scare anyone away. Personally, I don't go through KYC, but this is due to the fact that usually all data is sold, hell, I don’t trust such companies.

that is one of the best reasons to not send your info to random new projects, we can't see their devs faces but they want me to send a selfie with my passport or something ?! that is just ridiculous, if they're not a billion dollar company, i am not sending anything to them.

[inanilujimi]

Don't sell your personal data for just $ 10 - $ 20. There is already a bounty manager who will review bounty participants who cheat, bro, Kyc is highly discouraged for bounty participants.
The best solution in my opinion is that we care about the bounty project that is being worked on and report a participant who is cheating.

If the developers have not yet proven to be the trusted parties and then the hunters should not send their KYC to the scammers. I have been dealing with KYC verification for some trusted projects like radix and many more but i never got deceived consider these platforms have become even bigger than before.
As long as the developer is having a very good reputation and it's safe to do KYC but when you are joining the project with the anonymous team and you should never do any verification.

True, but havent you already sold them off to social media giants and governments? At least you can argue that the data collected by such organizations is considered to be kept safe while giving your data to some shady ICO project is going to make your skin crawl.

There is already a bounty manager who will review bounty participants who cheat, bro, Kyc is highly discouraged for bounty participants.

The manager is given instructions from the project owners. They are also a slave to their orders and hence even if the manager hand picks participants there are unscrupulous managers who are co-conpirators in defrauding bounty campaigns and hence the project owners need to be strict in this regard.

All the points of view - the team owners cracking down cheaters, the honest manager asking for KYC and the dishonest manager saying against KYC, all make sense - in other words, the concept of bounty hunting is a mess.

The best solution in my opinion is that we care about the bounty project that is being worked on and report a participant who is cheating.

People care about how much money they make. Thats all.

Would depend still because you wouldnt know on where those informations or documents had been stored up.They might look legit initially but you wouldnt know on what would happen ahead.
Im not really fan of KYC when it comes to bounty hunting.I do rather let off those coins off rather than on giving my personal information.I have tried on using other identities though. 
KYC is totally contrary on this market and its no surprise though that due to regulation and some government interference then you would really be asked out but this is only applicable
to investors itself but for bounty hunter? They shouldnt really be mandated because they are just simply advertisers.

Agreed but anyone has their own opinion and i have done a deep research to the team before. People should try to make sure if the party can be trusted.
I will never try give my KYC to the un-trusted party but so far everything went very smooth.

Although this will prevent cheatings. I am also concern with our privacy and also privacy of other bounty hunters. I know there might be a 50-50 chance of getting a legit bounty. Some of them are scammers and might also use our credential from our passport. Using the scanned photo of our passport to register or to purchase something in our identity. This is a dangerous!

There are so many scam projects now, I think the KYC request is necessary but too dangerous. Many guys can take advantage of bad projects to get user information, bounty hunters risk losing money in the future. So now all projects no longer require KYC with bounty hunters.

At the moment, most of the bounty campaigns are DeFi. Most of them do not have a Whitepaper and the dev team is anonymous. It would be quite strange and irrational for an anonymous project to require KYC verification. When there was an ICO bubble, then most projects had to be very transparent to attract investors, which is why bounty hunters were also required to pass KYC verification.

Crypto ICOs and all are shady stuff. You cant trust anyone here when it comes to your personal data. Bounty hunters are forced to undergo KYC because they put in their hard work and time in promoting the project and from their point of view, stopping the payment by putting in a new condition like KYC does hurt.

There are hunters who are dishonest and need to be punished with red trust rating because of using more than one account to spam and defraud the project. This is one way that the bad ones can bee weeded out but not feasible for the project owners.

In fact running the project entries from their own site or a manager's site to keep track of hunters can be a better method to prevent fraudulent users. Some managers have tried this method already like irfan_pak10.
