Pain of bounty hunters

[NewRanger]

We, bounty hunters, should be treated the same as the investors because without us those projects that we promoted won't be known to the public.
Those people who treated bounty hunters as beggars should realize that some of today's investors were also once bounty hunters. 

i am agree, we spend our best effort to promote project  but as if we beg free coin to them. investors must understand how do we work to promote it and not talk that we be main reason make price dumped.

That's the reality for bounty hunters, they are not being treated fairly as the same as how investors were treated. Their reason is because bounty hunters are receiving their tokens for free unlike for investors who spend their money to receive the token. But they don't think of the effort given by the bounty hunters to promote the project.

its not free, before we get it , for several months we must do any task in bounty campaign.

The Bounty hunters can't do anything IMHO, there are just a subject of the free aim of the project so they can't help issue. The managers should be saddle with the responsibility of securing the benefits of the hunters, most of these managers don't care and some careless with bounty hunters rewards. Among the forum managers, there are very few campaign managers that am pretty happy to work with and some very handful are just "don't care".

We shouldn't trust some bounty campaign managers. Especially the Swapzilla bounty manager. This manager imported a fake name from the bounty spreadsheet. We can't be satisfied with this scam bounty manager. I won't participate in any campaign which is managed by this manager.

dumping is temporary, the price still depends on how the team making the coin demanding thus making its price high. a reason why you DYOR on the coin and find the right time to buy at dip on the first 24 hours of listing.

Above all, I don't think that bounty hunters affected the price since only 1% is the common allocation for bounty pool. As a matter of fact, we, bounty hunters wanted also to sell the tokens we get in high price. Who is dumb to sell in low price if the project has potential? That is why, they are saying that bounty dumps the price so they will delay the payment is a dumb announcement. They just want to delay the payment because they are fear to give us the payment that deserves to us.

I can agree with this. Even bounty hunters make the price to drop, it should be temporary, not a long time. If the price is getting drop day after day, while no improvement at all. It should have a problem with the project or the team itself. If the people don't have a high interest to buy the token/coin in the market, they must realize something wrong with the project. So, it has nothing to do with the bounty hunters.

Bounty hunters spend their time to promote the project. Time also costs money.
Bounty hunters should not agree to work for tokens of new projects that are not yet traded on the exchanges. Because they do not cost anything and quite often it turns out that bounty hunters work for free.
As soon as bounty hunters start to appreciate their time and stop working for tokens, they will be valued much better.

Everyone goes through the stress, but it’s always worst for the hunters. Look at the case of managers, yes they do go through a lot of struggles but they have already been paid for the work they are doing, even if they are suffering to do the work it’s what they were paid to do and I believe they possibly charged the rate that will be worth all the stress they will have to go through.

But in the case of hunters, they have a lot of works to do with hope that they are going to get paid. Some of them work hard and dedicate their time to the bounty, only to be disappointed at last and not get paid. So hunters go through the most here.

What is the way forward? Do you have any solution in mind? We can't just keep complaining everyday, we need to do something about bounty hunting problems, there have been too many disappointments from different projects, the only solution I have is using escrow, this have been discussed many times already

Complaining continues to be useless, and will not solve the problem. The only way indeed every project should be to use escrow and this is important
for the convenience of bounty participants. So it is likely that participants will not be paid will not happen.

When it comes to bounties every body is hurt, both bounty hunters and bounty managers, I'm not trying to erase the fact that some bounty managers are bad but not all bounty managers are bad either, it's not easy to manage a bounty project most times, if bounty managers don't escrow the tokens there is nothing the BM can do, once the bounty campaign is over it's left for the team to keep their promises and if the team failed to keep their promises there is nothing that bounty manager can do

all bounty hunters would experience this including me there are so many symptoms that make bounty hunters suffer The essence of this problem is that before joining the bounty you must be careful so that the work does not go to waste or you can find a bounty manager that uses the escrow system at least avoid fraud when the bounty is over

For some members of the forum, they are against and not supporting bounty hunters because they said they keep harming and tarnishing the forum but actually bounty hunters are the reason why the communication to each other in the forum is good. I also experienced to joined in bounty where they did not pay me, of course it is really frustrating because I really worked hard in order to for me to promote the products and services that they are offering. For me it is the reason why I became choosy in terms of joining in bounty campaigns.

time generally don't cost money ,say you spend time for playing games and watching t.v , these don't pay you but if you spend time on working ,you are going to get paid .

bounties with tokens that aren't listed are rarely found thats why they risk on most common form of bounties but there were also cases that a hunter joined a bounty with a listed coin but still ended like being scammed because they got nothing left to sell after getting the coins due to the dumped value  .

The worst part is when tokens are locked for bounty hunters and only distributed to them when the market is already broken by investors, after their efforts and ill-treatment in the hands of such bounties they finally receive worthless tokens which would be a loss even if they trade as the tokens will not even worth the GAS fee charged in MEW wallet to transfer it.

I urge all the management and bounty managers to treat bounty hunters with respect and they shouldn't be judged.

This is one of the reason I transfer to Bitvest I was burned on doing bounty campaign on ICO and IEO, I never had a decent a decent income for the last two years the most I made was $100 on a three months works, they reduce the rewards, locked the token did not distribute or forget the bounty hunters, have been to so many abused by these past management, until now the abuse is still on going.

The problem is that 95 % of the bounties do offer tokens that are not listed on major exchanges. In 2017-2018, I participated in more than 30 bounties, only 1 got listed on binance ...
These days, interesting and good bounties are rarely found...

yes, it's not free but bounty hunters don't spend a lot of money like investors, bounty hunters only lose energy, thoughts and pay internet bills, so it's natural that we are treated unfairly by the team

[Zemomtum]

What of those that will promise the token will be distributed after 6 months and the time has come and past, nothing happened. Blockburn is an example of such, going to a year now, the team refused to distribute the reward for hunters that works tirelessly for 3 months. It is just pathetic the way bounty hunters are treated as slaves.

[Mighty_crypt]

Projects team shouldn't introduced bounty campaigns If they aren't ready to pay, blaming bounty hunters is lame honestly, lack of volume and liquidity is what makes a token or coin dumps, if there is enough volumes on good exchanges the coin or token will recover very fast or even some times the token will still maintain it's value when dump is ongoing.

[Kvalentine]

Most developers have no shame, they easily put blame on bounty hunters because they have nothing else to blame than bounty hunters, this type of developers have low experience about crypto and they are probably here just to take advantage of crypto and make some money, my advice is to always look the project utility very well before promoting

1. Before promoting any bounty try to accept the fact that not all bounties will keep their promises.
2. Your research skills will bring you closer to new promising project, so don't choose bounties randomly or because of their allocations
3. It's better and safer to find bounties from high reputable bounty managers, they mostly keep their promises

You really noticed and told everything very accurately. But I can make a small amendment to your word. The Bounty manager can not always be a guarantee of the decency of the project developers. I personally encountered a problem when the TenTum project team deceived Not only the bounty hunters, but also the bounty manager.

Good  point, you need to relied with your own understanding not just to pick it up randomly or because of huge amount of value of tokens,
none of that will help you to succeed. You have to continually assess and keep following the project it will bring you to a much decent chanes that there's potentials within the project and value will take place once the hunts being ended.
