It could be safe or not safe. What you need to do to see the track record of the bounty manager. I know that you may feel so weird to see that some campaign manager used the newbie account like bounty detective or others but you must see that based on the old campaign that successfully managed by them all.
BD has a good track record and it can be trusted but you can't sure if you will be always getting the legit campaign.

Maybe what the OP meant was a manager who didn't yet have a track record of managing campaigns, that's what made him ask.
BD does provide legal payments but not all projects will pay either, one project until now is not paying is EZY and what's really sad is that the average project he manages only gives $2- $10 for 12 weeks of work.

Research the bounty manager's previous work. Check out the comments under the topic of bounty.
Follow the spreadsheet regularly. This increases your chances of choosing the right bounty campaign.

Personally, I don't believe it, because they deliberately created a new account so that they could post the bounty project they manage, but not all of them are, sometimes they are also kind and trustworthy, but we can't trust most of them completely.

Most new projects who have no ANN on this forum have no choice but to create new account for their bounty campaigns, this doesn't revel that they can't be trusted, I promoted oikos bounty project and it was introduced by a newbie account, yet all bounty hunters get paid, it's better to stick with doing research, either it's from newbie or legendary members the difference isn't that much

Some projects value the community enough to hire a respectable manager to run their campaign, while others do not. Of course, this doesn't mean that the project is fake and won't pay bounty participants, but a good-track bounty manager would definitely add to the success of the campaign.

[leea-1334]

I have learnt that a good manager generally means a more fair and objective campaign,,, with good participants selected and good rules enforced. This leads to better people wearing the sigs, higher quality postings. Leads to a good impression for the project and it is a giving cycle that grows and lets people earn more when the project sees beneficial marketing (which is what this is all really is!).

A bad manager does not care about quality especially:)

Agreed, there might be a possibility for the team will be managing their own bounty and the team was creating a new account to be used to manage the bounty. It's not possible to see the track record of the manager if the team itself who has been managing the bounty. The only chance to see that based on the fundamental of the project and how big the supporters are.
It's not all of the newbie manager has portfolios. This will be a very difficult thing.

this is easiest way to recognized , reputation could described on previous work . is it good bounty manager or maybe still beginner manager in any campaign.

its conditional case dev team create newbie account to manage their campaign. but mostly campaign from newbie account failed and attract few participants.

[bakasabo]

Imho, if you see that a bounty campaign is moderated simply by a newbie - skip this, or at least check their previous campaigns. There is a possibility, that this manager do his work in telegram bounty group and uses forum account just to create a topic. A newbie with account name similar to projects name - check if they have an ANN thread. If there is no ANN, then this is more likely a scam and scammer just dont bother spending time creating it.

[gurunanakji777]

I would say rank does not matter in the success of any bounty. Even I don't trust newbies who do not have any experience in managing bounties because participating in such bounties can be a waste of time. Check every detail about the project whether they are providing it or not because sometimes they hide the details and say we will share later. Don't trust such peoples. My honest advice is to participate in those bounties that managed by experienced bounty managers.

[samputin]

It could be safe or not safe.

But better to be sure than sorry. Even though we assume that he already did successful bounty projects in the past, a newbie is still a newbie. You can't get rid the doubts in your mind, that's for sure. You know, anytime the devil can whisper in his ear and command him to take away all the funds without huge collateral in exchange. A red tagged newbie account is not a waste, I hope you get my point. So whether he got a good track record or not, joining in his campaign should be your last resort. Find something which got a more reputable manager as much as possible.

No offense to all newbies out there, I'm just telling my opinion.

In essence, it is necessary to establish an account to formally introduced and disseminate information with their startup project. The rank of the bounty manager will not define the creditability of the campaign; thus, you should verify each information before participating. Regardless, some newbie bounty managers successfully handled and organized a campaign. Hence, any campaign can be high-risk, so be wary. If you are doubtful and interested to join, you can consider the ones managed by the trusted users in the forum.

Since the OP is a newbie and has negative trust, I don't think he can participate in a lot of bounty campaigns here as one requirement usually is having no negative trust. Anyway, every bounty in alts section is not reliable in my opinion. Because you have no idea whether they can pull off the project or not. So it is really better to stick to bitcoin-paying campaigns even if it is not that high-paying one. But sadly, usually btc campaigns require higher rank members.

[erikoy]

Not safe in my opinion because mostly newbie or copper member newbies are only used for scam. If they are really serious in their project then they should pay reputable bounty manager. The team should consider to spend money and that is normal and part of creating a  good project. This is how I see newbie copper members. But for your information that not all newbie accounts promoting bounty campaign are scam. There are some newbie accounts that are promoting good projects.

[btcltcdigger]

If you got time, and it doesn't look like a scam, risk it. It might pay out nicely.
Sometimes projects are not familiar too much with bounty and run it themselves.

[Jemzx00]

Bounty campaign that has been started by a newbie account with a few post and activities with the sole purpose of just starting a campaign are most likely to end up scam as the account that will be held accountable is useless.
However, there is an exception to this as some Projects wanted their campaign or bounties to be started by their account and managed by a professional bounty manager that they hire. With this, the bounty campaign has been started by a newbie account but a high ranking member is using it and managing the campaign.
Another exception would be if the funds for the bounties are escrowed by a trusted member on the forum and will be distributed by the escrow.
Anyway, almost all altcoins bounty can turn into a scam even with a trusted manager especially if the payment are in they're coins as it has no value. The only bounties that are safe are those that are paid in bitcoin, eth, Usdt and other crypto that is available to the market and are escrowed.

[Akiko]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

No it's not , if you find such campaign then never join they can easily abandoned the campaign and the account any time they want. If they are serious and looking for more participants they should hire a manager that can handle their campaign. They use newbie account because they don't want to lose any and it will be also difficult for them to count your stakes since they don't have experience doing that.

[thesmallgod]

No bounty is safe even with members that are not newbie. The only campaigns that pay me and are listed this year (ETGF and YUSRA) were conducted by newbie while many others that I have participated and lead to scam or have not paid are handled by high rank members. The only reason why people always advise bounty hunters to avoid bounty that are handled by newbie is because 2 out of 5 will not even pay you not to talk of getting your token traded. Also it is easy for them because they do not have any reputation to protect. If their account get negative trust today, they can go ahead to open another account and get started with another campaign. Most high ranking member that manage campaign here have their reputation to protect so they will do much better for the bounty hunters

[FatFork]

The only bounties that are safe are those that are paid in bitcoin, eth, Usdt and other crypto that is available to the market and are escrowed.

Indeed. Although there aren't that many altcoin campaigns paying in tradeable coins, this should be the standard for all serious projects. Imagine that you want to run a marketing campaign on google or facebook, but tell them that you'll pay for it when (if) your project succeeds. It'd be funny, wouldn't it?

[kkaroul4]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

50/50 some of them might either the project's representative here in the forum, some might be just some users who wanted to be a manager well the risk is 50/50 since anytime they can just go away without paying the participants while some reputable managers have high assurance that the participants will be rewarded.

[rahmatullah9305]

I think it's not safe, but how else, very few bounty projects that pay off and end in failure and scam, I think everything will follow no matter what

Instead of following everything and surrendering to whatever happens, it's better not to follow anything that will only waste your valuable time, because if there is no bounty that pays off, it's better to use your time for other things, because there is still a lot of work other is better, that is if I personally think.

[safari88]

there's no such thing as safe in bounty campaign even the known bounty managers sometimes didn't pay rewards it's still depends on the project that runs the promotion. so it depends on you whether you will participate on it or not, do your own research about it.

[harapan]

actually rank is not an obstacle in determining the project we want to support because it all depends on the research you do and seeing the performance of the manager, look at the project I am participating in now managed by a newbie account and I believe it

[X-ray]

There's no safe bounty campaign and the only safe place when you can join in the bitcoin campaign. The majority of bounty campaign that has been running by the newbies  always ended as the scam project.
You should be careful with any bounty that runs by the newbie account. You can see that the history of scam bounty campaign.
That could probably the team's account too.

[Beparanf]

actually rank is not an obstacle in determining the project we want to support because it all depends on the research you do and seeing the performance of the manager, look at the project I am participating in now managed by a newbie account and I believe it

Case to case basis. Having a good manager will save time for bounty manager to do research to the project fro themselves since trusted manager will never or atleast low chance that will accept a garbage project with zero future.

Although sometimes, rank is not required when the project being endorse was trusted and backed by well-known established company.

Do yourself a favor and familiarize with the forum and understand the rules before talking about campaigns, there are a lot more to take to notice here in forum, and you should also learn how to work towards building your account, learn how to make constructive post or provide service to earn merit to rank up which will give you better opportunity to participate in campaigns.   

[sapnu]

If you want to understand more about bounty campaigns, it would be best that you explore more here in the forum. Try looking over in the questions that relates to the things you are looking for answers with. In my start here in the crypto world, to make much related posts, I wandered here in the forum and searched for the questions and topics that may answer all the things I am wondering about. Through that, I was able to make quality posts that helped me earn lots of money later wherein I invested most of it in bitcoin since I felt that there's a possibility that it will soon experience bull run again.

[bassbity]

BD does provide legal payments but not all projects will pay either, one project until now is not paying is EZY and what's really sad is that the average project he manages only gives $2- $10 for 12 weeks of work.

Yes, that's right, I have been waiting for EZY payment for a long time, but until now there is no clear information about when the EZY will be received by the participants .. the announcement said that the distribution will be done at the end of October. now it's past there is even no clarity.
but BD for now the rest is still very good and always pays on time.

[lionheart78]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

Simple answer, it is uncertain.  We do not know if the project moderated or managed by a newbie account is safe or not.  There are records that those campaigns managed by newbies are paying and there are also records that it don't.  Honestly, even known bounty manager sometimes manage a campaign that do not pay.  If you are skeptical on the newbie campaign manager then better avoid those kind of bounty campaigns.

[oHnK]

If we want to participate in the bounty campaign, we certainly hope that we will receive the bounty during the project.  Whether the bounty campaign managed by the newbie is safe or not is something that we cannot be sure of.  However, we can see from what benchmarks we use in order to minimize losses in following a project scam.  Usually what we use is to see who the campaign manager is.  If the manager is experienced in managing many bounty campaigns, there will be some project results, but if a newbie is like that it will be very difficult to assess so if at a percentage the chances of success in a project managed by an experienced manager are much greater than a newbie.  Coming back to you, are you ready to risk your decision, I suggest that if you have other options, look for a more experienced manager.

[trauchot]

The quality and reliability of bounty companies does not depend from those people who posting bounties on this forum, so you by yourself must check and study each bounty company in which you want to participate, and then you by yourself will choose in which bounty company to participate and in which not.

[Cornia]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

If the newbie manager has a Copper member tag and the newbie manager's username and bounty campaign name are the same, then all those bounties are somewhat safe. However, if you visit the bounty telegram of all these bounty campaigns, you will understand which group's bounty it is.  However, it is best to participate in a high rank trusted manager's campaign.

No matter what the rank is it will be better if they are trusted by the members here in forum or already put some hardwork in their account to verify their capabilities to handle campaigns. I don't join in newbie bounties as it may not be paifld and will just be a wasted effort, it's better be safe in cutting or choosing or the quality as a whole than for only few pcs or amount managed by higher ranks.

[blckhawk]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

I'd say yes it safe and sometimes no. It still depends on the project itself, so if you want a safer bounty to participate in then try to research about them check for the whitepaper, developers, roadmap, and stuff, then you can find your answer. Honestly, I remember back in the days participating in a campaign that is handled by a newbie but not a common newbie because it is the main BTT account of the said project and it turns out the outcome was good but a reminder, not all the time the outcome will be good so better to check out the project. However most of the time, I joined in a bounty handled by a known bounty manager in this forum because there is a higher percentage they are certain.

[Sirait]

^ As a bounty hunter, I would like to say that not all campaigns managed by Newbies are bad, I have worked on bounties run by newbies several times and the campaigns are paid. Even today, bounty projects run by experienced BM, mostly do not pay hunters.

So the point is don't get your hopes up with most of the current campaigns, even if they are managed by experienced BM. And don't discredit any Newbie run campaign either. Be a smart hunter before working on a bounty project.

[wxa7115]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

You must always check the reputation of each manager, however for the most part newbie managers are in some way affiliated with the developers which means that whenever some problem arises you can bet that 99% of the time they are going to side with the developers and not with the bounty hunters, that alone should make you very wary of becoming part of a campaign managed by a newbie.

But when you also add that for the most part those newbies have no experience managing any campaign and that they do not have any reputation at stake this means they can scam their bounty hunters with impunity and even if they are red tagged they can always just create a new account and avoid the red tag that way, so if I were you I will never join a bounty managed by a newbie.

[militiariko]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

A good, credible bounty is not defined by its rule to accept newbies; rather it is defined by the quality of the project, credibility of the project, reliability of the bounty manager as well as the general feeling (vibes) about the developers. All other details are literally terms and conditions for every bounty hunters willing to be a part of the campaign..

I advice that you try to participate in the best bounties; as it is rewarding and saves stress, it is better to join 4 bounties and earn from 3, than to join 20 bounties and earn from 2

[judeafante]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

They are part of the team, some of them have copper membership it's not the ones who manage the project, everything should be in the team potential's in the market and if it has a chance to get support from the community, if these two criteria are there then it has a good chance to succeed whoever manages the project here.

[Genemind]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

Nobody can tell, account ranking says a lot to other users especially if you are managing a campaign. In my opinion ranking has nothing to do with elegibility or how good a project is. I've been to numerous campaigns that paid well managed by newbies or even new managers, even trusted campaign managers sometimes gets scammed by dev teams and don't get paid. People should stop focusing on the manager's rank, but on the project they are planning to promote. Ranking may give confidence and assurance to bounty participants, but it all falls to the team if they are paying or not.

[crwth]

It's those bounty campaigns that you should watch out for. That doesn't mean they are already a scam to begin with, but they might be new to the forum, and they want to have more reach with the cryptocurrency members everywhere. If they are diligent enough to understand and know the workarounds of Bitcointalk, they would know to hire a campaign manager or let an escrow hold the actual funds of the campaign itself.

If they are legitimate, then it's easy to show that to the public. If not, then be careful about those projects, don't get scammed.

[TastyChillySauce00]

To understand a project it is not seen from the manager but look at the products they carry, actually an account with a newbie rank can still be trusted because some BM with newbie accounts have successfully brought the projects they manage

Even when the project has built a proper product and that doesn't mean the bounty campaign that has been running by the project will be ended smoothly. Do you see that some bounty cases that the manager was locking the spreadsheet and that makes the hunters were not able to see the result of their work?
That proves that if the product didn't guarantee how successful the campaign. More consideration must be taken BTW

[darkphoenix2610]

You need to make research to know whether a bounty manager is legit or not, but I can say that a newbie bounty manager will still be legit just look at the project and also join their bounty telegram group and see how the bounty manager responds to the participants.

[JaoBadjap]

Well Since the merit system a lot of account around here is stuck in Newbie Account.
Unlike before the merit system. an account could rank due to count of its post.
Like you, with the heck of a number of post but still at Newbie Account.

However it doesnt matter, some bounty manager is still has a newbie account but has a good track record on successful bounties.
so its better to check the bounty manager's past projects and secondly you could actually check if the project itself is legit.
 

[JeffBrad12]

Have you been watching all of the scam projects that happened since the first quarter of this year? the majority of the scam projects have been running by the newbie campaign manager and i can mention some like swaphub and various scam defi projects. Their project didn't guarantee if that will be a legit project or not. As far as i can see that depends on whether the project already traded or not. Even some legit projects can refuse to pay the hunters.

[Lantind]

If you want to believe, I don't think so,
there are still many people who are worthy to be followed, but if you have a team that is well known and can be trusted even though my newbie account can join, but I prefer BM who is experienced and has good Trust

Yes, that's right, but the campaign project that you are participating in, BM does not have trust even though she is no longer a newbie at this time, actually this is very simple to understand, because everyone comes from newbie to become big within a certain period of time, now because at this time many scammers create newbie accounts to trick other people, so that's where people start to distrust BM whose rank is still Newbie.

[Traderbtcc]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

No bounty is guaranteed, you might work for a whole month and end up not getting paid, it's not really about the newbie account, some projects can't afford to pay a good campaign/bounty manager in this forum that's why they prefer to bring someone from their own team to help them manage the bounty, I don't usually participate in such bounties though, cuz most times they don't calculate the stakes well or they end up not paying, that's why the best bounties to participate in are the ones moderated by reputable bounty managers in this forum  .

[adzino]

They are not safe. Around 99% of those bounty program are just a scam. Even those that pay you. They make those shit projects that they know will fail. You promote those shit projects for them and once they get enough people buying their scam tokens, the developers dump those tokens and takes their profit. The tokens that pay you will eventually have zero value. So yeah, even if they paid you, they actually scammed you by making you promote a scam and waste your time.
Don't waste your time in those bounty campaign. You would be earning more by doing other productive tasks.

[zaim7413]

its conditional case dev team create newbie account to manage their campaign. but mostly campaign from newbie account failed and attract few participants.

This is due to those who do not have experience in managing bounty campaigns and do not have great trust in this forum, so that most of those who are still newbies are failing when holding projects, and many scammers deliberately create new accounts to deceive many people through the bounty campaign, they mainly targeted new investors.

[MCobian]

To determine a safe and reliable bounty campaign, it's best to avoid bounty managers with newbie rankings. Because a bounty manager
with a high ranking must have experience that we can check his track record. If he/she have a good track record, it is certain that the bounty
campaign is safe to join. Unfortunately, project owners now prefer to be led by their own team, rather than hiring a bounty manager who
already has a good reputation. So don't be surprised if there are so many bounty campaigns currently circulating that are scams.

[hannahB4]

I will not go for it because I will be skeptical about the manager but if possible I will review past campaigns and review of the manager but only if I don't have any other better options. Though notwithstanding we will have some of this campaign that will not be a scam and will pay off thereafter.

[Cling18]

It would sound doubtful to me. I'm not saying that newbies can't be trusted but it's still important that we'll look for a legit and trusted manager with a good history and background if we want assurance. It would be a risk to trust a manager without any record. It's also important that you'll check the legitimacy of a project that you're joining so you'll know how to get rid of scam project these days.

[bandungan]

It's unpredictable, I've joined a bounty campaign moderated by a newbie and was successful, but I've also joined a bounty campaign moderated by a well-known manager and it's a scam. So in my opinion, it's not from who moderates, but rather the project team that determines the bounty campaign is successful or not

[LimLims]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

Before you take part in any bounty campaign, do a background check of the project(Defi, ICO, IEO).
And find out that the thing that you are promoting is a legit one or not.
Moreover if you want to be on be safer side, always go for bounties managed by reputable members here in the forum.
At last Be wise and select the best campaign according to your preference.
Hope this helps you mate.

[meldrio1]

I'm sure those newbies were old members here in bitcointalk forum. They don't want to use their old accounts to handle the bounty maybe they afraid of getting negative reputation if the project turned scam, that's why many newbies handling the campaigns but I don't care the rank of bounty manager, I care the project, if it is not scammy then I will participate the bounty campaign.

[isaac_clarke22]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

It's a risk, OP. It's an investment for you to give time for finding out about the project dev's reputation.
Newbie is surely a red flag, and there might be some purchasing copper membership just to prove that they're willing to buy and support forum and not just pop out of here screw with people. That's just the tip of an iceberg though.

[oHnK]

It could be like this, but the reputation of the manager is also very important to add value to our trust in the project where he is managing.  For beginners, it may be very difficult to judge this project as good or just a scam.  It can be seen easily whether the manager is experienced or not.

[Renampun]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

campaigns handled by famous BMs or newbies alike cannot guarantee that the hunters will be paid...
You can skip every campaign a newbie is running if you don't want to bet getting involved. the risk is balanced because the projects that appeared today only want to raise funds without wanting to develop it.

[Yatsan]

The safeness and legibility of the bounty campaign does not momentarily relies on the rank of the account of the bounty manager for the team behind the project is the one being responsible for the payments and the run of the entire project. But if you are having doubts about projects being moderated or run by newbies account, then you can avoid them for that is the initial reaction of anyone since there are certainly trust issues with regards to bounty campaigns due to recent scams that involves many bounties in the past. But you could still reconsider trusting those projects even they are being run by newbies account for the project itself must be the first reliable second the manager for he is taking over the responsibility of handling the bounty.

[nicecrypto]

@op already got himself red tag for not reading Forum rules or just break them without care because according to red tag reference this users is tag as ' ban evasion ' which means @op is not new to the forum and he is well aware of bounties and rules

[goinmerry]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

Mind giving us some links as examples? Not browsing much at the bounty section. Not because they are newbies, we can conclude right away that they are untrustworthy.

If I'm in the situation:

- If those are part of the team, then check the project if it's somehow "promising".
- If those are users here in the forum then got hired by a project to become their bounty manager, I will think twice as in the first place, why a newbie with less activity should manage a bounty without experience.

[zonefloor]

actually they are not linked to award managers. I have participated in many award programs led by new and legendary members. But while neither of them paid, I sometimes made money from both. This could all be about the scope of the project and the money it raises.

[Koutami]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

Do you believe the manager with 2/3 activities? Im absolutely will not do any kind of that bounty, just search more reliable manager that already proved can handle some bounty before.

[Wulan_maniez]

It is very doubtful to see newbies with 2-3 activities, for that I rarely participate in their bounty projects.
But not all newbie accounts are dubious in their handling of bounties project. For example, Small Rabbit
and Bounty Detective, they pay well and their projects are good. So for managers with starter accounts,
I trust them more than others.

[magnum cyber]

It depends, because there are also new projects and also managed by a new account from the project team itself. btw for me whatever it depends on the project, if I think it's feasible then I'll follow. maybe for the start I will try 1 week if the performance is good in managing the bounty campaign etc., then I will stay and vice versa. My advice is to be smart in choosing a bounty campaign.

[JahriMeayer]

Can't say surely cause sometimes team members themselves open newbie account with low activity and start promoting their project on this platform.but as i exprienced, you are right. I saw most of bounty end with scam which is posted by newbie manager with 2/3 activity.although that isn't means all newbie manager are try to scam! Some are good also.its your responsibility to check and find out the right one

[Nellayar]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

If I were you, I would not focus much in bounty campaigns. Only few are good and genuine bounties. It is not already same as 2017 wherein bounties are really paid campaigns. As of now, I think most of hunters are complaining about the tokens we received, distribution process and etc. If you want to be successful in cryptocurrency, move in other earning opportunities such as tradings or minings. If you want an assurance in campaign, I suggest to look after Hhampuz. S/he is a great campaign manager.

[Om.monata]

I would say rank does not matter in the success of any bounty. Even I don't trust newbies who do not have any experience in managing bounties because participating in such bounties can be a waste of time. Check every detail about the project whether they are providing it or not because sometimes they hide the details and say we will share later. Don't trust such peoples. My honest advice is to participate in those bounties that managed by experienced bounty managers.

Sometimes that's what we have to do, but believe me, bounties that are managed by experienced managers sometimes fail and have made it bad until now. so I think the rank is only a ranking, but performance may be the priority here to find out whether the project is successful or not

[TastyChillySauce00]

It actually depends on the company they are offering a bounty program. I remember in 2018, there a guy who as a newbie posted a bounty thread and it turned out to be a really good bounty, so you never know. But I agree with some that most newbies are scams and you can not trust them. So research before you sign up and work for them.

that being said if it's not all of newbies accounts that managed the campaign will always be ended as the scam project. Based on what you have been saying above and we can't determine the result of the campaign based on the early judgement without try to know deeper about the project itself.
People are taking it too easy to judge any campaign managed by newbie account.

True. That is "don't judge a book by its cover" That is why when choosing bounty to participate in, hunters should not only make a project research (check team, webpage, whitepaper for plagiarism), but also spend some time in bounty group and see how admin act. If the group is moderated poorly and admin dont bother deleting spam, or a lot of users complain about stakes or there is a weak feedback from admin - better dont waste time on them.

Personally, I would rather skip bounty under newbie management, because I doubt that the project is well experienced in managing bounties and interacting with hunters. If the campaign is managed by Full Members and above - I would check his post history, trying to evaluate how good he could be, or did he have experience in managing or participating in bounties. And will always join bounty campaign under the management of reputed manager.

[Question123]

Actually the bounty campaign is risky to join because maybe you will get your reward or not and your work will become useless your effort and for sure you will not like it happen to you like what happened to the bounty hunters.

Finding good bounty campaign is very hard now because it has a lot of scam or failed so once you decided to join you need to take a risk and be ready what ever the result and don't expect too much .

[doomloop]

Normally bounty is not "free money" because they promise bounty hunters a certain token for their contribution and not just for participation. When that token is given and worths nearly nothing at all, that is understandable like the pain of wasting your efforts.

Project owners usually do not want their tokens to worth nothing, I mean there could be some that created their projects as a scam to get funding and make money and I understand that, but even they would prefer if their token worth a lot, they would scam even more that way, so all in all everyone would want their tokens to worth a lot. But there are times when bounties are not even given away, that part I never really understand. When you open up a bounty and do not pay your bounty hunters, that means they have as much power to destroy as promoting you and no project should do that even if they are scams.

[Lanatsa]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

It depends because in most cases where noobs doesn't really have the idea on how this forum works unless those are just alts of somebody who do have experience of this place
then that might really be considerable and also if that newbie is part of the team and does have knowledge on how do things works then you can eventually tell if
he had done his job well.

If you do really matter with some assurance then it would be better to stick out with reputable managers of this forum.
but doesn't mean that every project handled is a success.

[martina14]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

This depend on you belief of the newbie Bounty manager just simple as that. Because there are some well known Bounty manager where in the end the project owner sometimes got failed to continue due to it can't able to continue. That's most of them always post a disclaimer to their bounty announcement about their connection to the project owner they manage.

[kramat]

Yes, you can believe it or not, depending on how you determine the project, if I personally don't see the project from the rank manager, I only give newbies the opportunity to become a professional manager so we can have a more reliable manager.

[soetikno]

usually they create bounty campaigns with the rules they like, the manager who uses the mewbie account I don't think is trusted, sometimes they are slow in updating the report spreadsheet

[Shasha80]

Don't underestimate the bounty campaign led by newbies, because some bounty campaigns that have bounty managers with
newbie rank are some that are good. Although I have to admit that a bounty campaign led by a high rank bounty manager is
safer and more reliable. So the point is what I want to say, don't choose the bounty campaign based solely on the bounty managers
who lead. But also check the roadmap, project team, website and social media.

What exactly are these newbies? The one that has same username as project or "<projects name>_official" ? Or newbies with username like "kjdfdf6", "vantufri" or something random? I would suggest to look at their post count and post history. I just cant believe that a newbie could manage campaign well. Where from he could get experience?

I guess the right will be do research or investigation before joining, then try to calculate expected income (if possible), do not rush to join every campaign and skip them after a single suspicious action from team or manager.

[jrrsparkles]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

Newbie or Legendary, you shouldn't give attention to the rank if profile which is promoting the bounty. Just take a look at the project then decide whether it is actually worth to get those tokens or not. Nowadays mostly the bounties are managed by the project itself so its normal that you will see a newbie there but take a look at the profile and make sure it is actually connected with the project or not.

[Santri]

Maybe you think that newbie accounts are not safe because many of them don't pay participants and because newbie accounts still don't have experience in choosing a good bounty but not all newbie accounts are really newbie mates, there are some managers with newbie accounts who can provide a lot of income. Make it a habit to choose a project not seen from rank but make it a habit to learn about the product and the goals of the project

[FaucetKING]

I don't really recommend joining that type of bounty campaign, sometimes these newbies are trusted and they will pay you but you should always put in mind that there's a risk when dealing with such non trustedor low ranked accounts / new accounts. They might scam you anytime. I think that you should deal with bounty offers on a case by case basis.

[akirasendo17]

sometimes its usually not safe but since we don't know if the team just create an account and don't want to pay a campaign manager for less cost, they are the one making the campaign management, check for the project's whitepaper sometimes those campaigns might be legit, it's not always with the campaign managers rank, that matters sometimes its what they have to offer to the community that is important and what it does or make in cryptocurrency or blockchain.

[iTradeChips]

I have learnt that a good manager generally means a more fair and objective campaign,,, with good participants selected and good rules enforced. This leads to better people wearing the sigs, higher quality postings. Leads to a good impression for the project and it is a giving cycle that grows and lets people earn more when the project sees beneficial marketing (which is what this is all really is!).

A bad manager does not care about quality especially:)

For me, what is important is that we need to find a well known manager that is good at managing bounties, with a good track record and has a good practice when it comes to taking care of the payments and the participants as well. Be careful though as many good managers in the past totally scammed them and payments were not given so that also affected their status and participants were not paid gave them negative scores, further affecting their status as bounty managers. Pity.

[shiming]

Novice host bounty. It's really hard to tell. This may be a scam, but some may be real. I think we need to investigate from many aspects to observe the past bounty success experience of this novice, and also need to observe whether the prospects of this bounty program can be successful and whether it is worthwhile for us to do this bounty. We need to observe in many ways.

[ije07]

I have seen a newbie account with low activation who manages a project and it is ultimately successful (newbie official account) I mean the newbie account of their project and some are the opposite. this is not a guarantee, but the most important thing is to do research, also ensure their background, including project developers, and continue to monitor the progress of their project.

[Tahid12]

That's the main reason i always try to stay away from perticipate and promote bounty program which usually managed by newbie managers.cause its too easy for scammer to create a free newbie account and can start scamming people.i already perticipated some project that was held by newbie manager but untill now, haven't received any payment form them, rather they lock the bounty thread at the middle and leave

[hannahB4]

The success of a project is not determined majorly by the campaign manager because like you been bounty hunter such a person is also performing a task for the project. If you decide to manage a campaign people that has a good insight won't look at your status for being a newbie but look deep into the success rate of the project. Not disputing the solid fact that there are some newbie who is not well experienced to manage a campaign.

[bearexin]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

Maybe they are legit or they are not. You can still go through their history to know for yourself whether you’re getting involved in the right project or not, but if they don’t have any history then you should stay clear from them.

By the way they are not the only managers in the forum, there are so many others in the forum, if you find a project and you are having a second thought about it then I will advise you to forget about it, there are many bounties in the forum, just go through them and see whether you will find a better one, and if you don’t ,you can still check back another day. It’s better not to be in a hurry so that you can get the best.

[Bitcoin577]

Bounty Result of Newbie accounts are often proved scam because these account are just created for campaign purpose.
Although some BM with newbie manage a good bounty and pay very good amount at a time but not at all.
If you want to join then read their whitepaper, project roadmap and their token detail. This will probably help you to choose good bounty.
I join small number of bounties from those who already managed  bounty and paid good token at a time.

[articlecity]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

Mostly such campaigns do not work but yes sometimes they turn out to be really good so it all depends but i would still suggest to avoid campaigns by such accounts if you get even 1% doubt.

[tabas]

Maybe put the percentage the most into not being safe. Most of the time they don't really have any legitimacy to prove. And bounty joiners are only thinking that they are legit and hoping that will pay them out after those participations and stakes that they've earned from them.
It is a good question that you have noticed so that others will also feel doubtful about them. If you want to have a better chance of getting into a paying bounty, choose your best manager.

[Mehedi72]

Not all newbie manager are scammers but there are only few newbie, who are honest with theirs project.so need hard analysis before choice their project as investment.but if you are also newbie & unable to analysis correctly then avoid all of those project which is promising by newbie accounts and selected some good project to buy for cmc or coingecro.thus you may save yourself from being scam

[Ratash]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

True there are some scam bounties but the manager rank does not mean that its a scam some projects select a manager from their team and open a new bitcointalk profil maybe  because of the fact that they have more knowledge about the project than the forum managers.

[cryptonx]

Not all newbie manager are scammers but there are only few newbie, who are honest with theirs project.so need hard analysis before choice their project as investment.but if you are also newbie & unable to analysis correctly then avoid all of those project which is promising by newbie accounts and selected some good project to buy for cmc or coingecro.thus you may save yourself from being scam

indeed, thats why people must be more selective if they want to join any bounty campaign
sometimes even a newbie that become a bounty manager, but he manage the campaign properly, thats will be better my friend

[Chainsmokers]

there is a lot to understand if you want to jump into bounties because it is difficult to distinguish between good or bad bounties, they are very neatly arranged but what I know so far is viewed from white paper, roadmap and social media updates if everything looks good and makes sense it is likely that the project will be successful and the bounty hunter got big results

[bakasabo]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

You should not mainly focused on what bounty moderator rank would be, either newbie or high rank there is a chance that your hard work not being paid if the project is scam. We must do proper research and deep analyzation of project before joining on any bounties.

I suggest to find few reputed managers with high percentage of successful bounties and simply join every new campaign they manage. They will either stop or put on pause till being clarified campaign if there is a trouble, or scam projects often avoid using their services. Of course their campaigns can be unsuccessful, no one is insured against it. But unsuccessful does not equal being scammed (when you dont get rewarded, cheated or KYC suddenly appeared at the end of campaign).

[memyselfandi]

Based on my experience, we can't be 100% sure if the bounty campaign is safe or not. That is why your job being a bounty hunter is to make some deep readings and research about the project you are interested in. Read their articles, announcements, events and other documents. Next is the bounty manager, the best way to make sure that the bounty manager is legit is to visit their telegram channel. Make sure that their telegram channel is active/responsive and the members are making positive feedback. Also, review the credibility of those bounty managers.

[pinggoki]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

Of course it is not safe. Imagine that a newbie will operate and being a bounty manager of a bounty campaign is quite questionable, especially if that bounty campaign is not follows escrow and the point is that a newbie or new account cannot maintain and run a campaign, imagine who is newbie here in the forum will operate such things. The people will also questioning if this bounty campaign is for real or scam because of the bounty manager that is a newbie.

[BitindaHouse]

I think that such bounty companies will not perform very well, because newbies do not really know what they are doing and can only make the company worse, not better

[mamesso]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

Maybe the development team deliberately created a new account to manage their bounty, with limited funds so that they cannot afford the services of a reliable manager.  But not all bounties which are moderated by newbies cannot be trusted, there are still some successful projects after being moderated by the newbie. So, before deciding to join a project, it is our job to examine the bounty thread whether it can be trusted or not.

[Jocuserious]

You should first research the project well then you will understand. Because fake project dangerous for everyone like investor or bounty hunter. Especially now with many scam projects newbie account they are managing the bounty where very easily they are scamming.
However, higher rank professional managers can easily identify scam schemes during their bounty and then the manager stops handling that bounty very quickly.

It's better to do ypur research before joining any campaigns.

Like what you mentioned, there are campaigns that being managed by the developers who created new accounts to handle thier offers. Some may success but more are untrsuted. Best to picked those campaigns who use BM or those who are willing to escro the allocated funds.

[Kid4U]

we can't trust any of them without some real and trusted bounty manager.
because there are many newbie account which manage bounty some of these bounty become scam and some of them become real and successful.
and you can also check out some member and hero member and someone else rank bounty manager
 manage those bounty which become scam while some of  them are not.
so you need to check out the concepts of project. not the project bounty manager profile rank

[Willitivity]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

Honestly bounties hosted by newbies with 2 or 3 activities are less attractive to me, because 98% of them always turn out to be scam bounties hosted by scammers, 1% of them are moderated by unprofessional personnels (meaning they don't really know how bounties work) the remaining 1% bounties managed by newbie accounts the rewards lways turn out to be more like an airdrop, recieving a few cents after participating fully in a bounty campaign isn't worth the effort to me.

[mamesso]

It's better to do ypur research before joining any campaigns.

Doing research before joining the campaign has become the main task of bounty hunters, does not let their time be wasted because of choosing the wrong campaign.

Like what you mentioned, there are campaigns that being managed by the developers who created new accounts to handle thier offers. Some may success but more are untrsuted. Best to picked those campaigns who use BM or those who are willing to escro the allocated funds.

I totally agree as you say, The famous manager bounty will be a strong attraction for bounty hunters to join the bounty they run, and well-known Bounty Managers are more trustworthy than Newbie Bounty Manager.

[Russlenat]

Being cautious and vigilant is a good attribute of a bounty hunter especially that there are plenty of scam and fake bounties in this forum however I don't think that the rank of bounty hunter indicates the success of a bounty project because at the end of the they it is still the project itself that will dictate its success. Nonetheless, to avoid wasting your time and effort, you should do your own research first before participating in a bounty campaign no matter what is the rank of the BM.

Actually there's a lot of projects that does not hire bounty hunters and yet they are still successful, hence we can conclude that it's possible to succeed without us promoting their projects. Some projects used bounty hunters to promote their projects, and that's a good thing, however, we have to be carefully and consider that the success rate of the projects to raise the money needed are very small.

[Hocaneshaw]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

I totally agree with you because theses newbie account is only created for promote the scam project so be aware from these bounty . I suggest to you bounty is not safe you need join only btc signature campaign but firstly you need your rank up so the signature campaign will give some benefits rather than bounty

[Banulit]

I dont think that ranked is a basis participating in a bounty campaign. I thinj no matter how high or even how low the rank of the bounty managers its the project itself will dictate the success of the bounty. I have seen plenty of higher rank BM manage of several scam/fake bounties and I also have seen some newbie rank manage a bounty that turns out to be successful. It is still on your part by doing your own research before joining a bounty campaign that you wanted.

[plr]

It always depend on the roadmap and the platform, even if they are created by newbies or legendary members but the project do not offer anything or real use case, newbies do not have impact on the project, it's the potential that will make investors invest, bounty hunters promote and the community will support.

[Rehan Zakir]

No doubt, It is very difficult to track which bounty is real or not. But it is a chance that bounty manager account's blocked due to some reason. So, they opened a new account to again start his journey in bitcointalk.
So, we can judge it by their work. If he has experience  in his skill. His work show us his capability.

Respectable bounty managers will not allow themselves to be involved in scummy projects and will, at the first hint of problems, remove themselves from the project and alert the community. Therefore, yes, the credibility of the bounty manager can very often indicate the credibility of the project.

Personally, I would never trust a project run by a newbie bounty manager. If they don't have the resources to hire a bounty manager, how can they have enough resources to launch a project successfully?

[crazy-pilot]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

Differently. There is no unequivocal correlation between who leads the project and what quality it will end up with.
There have been many cases when major ranks were involved in a scam.
I think this is primarily due to the fact that it is possible to buy an account of any rank, this allows scammers to mislead people.

[xiboothrezi]

That's why we have to focus more on project quality.
Even so, bounty managers who have a good reputation in this forum will definitely not accept offers of cooperation arbitrarily, but that does not mean that there is a 100% scam-free guarantee. So we must be prepared to face any consequences because the world of bounties is full of surprises and is full of risks.

There are also projects that handle their own bounties, so create a new account with their project name here. If it's legit and potential, then what's there to worry about ranking?
Let's become an educated bounty hunter, by getting used to analyzing projects thoroughly, and not obsessing over one indicator.

[Mr.sprin]

My experience in participating in bounty projects I always focus on project partners, partners understand more about the development of their projects, they don't just choose the projects they support.

[rainingbitcoins]

In accordance with my experience, I did not immediately join the bounty campaign because if we are careless in participating in the bounty campaign, we may not get anything and it can be said that we only participate in community service, so my advice before joining the bounty you must see the website of the project you are going to participate in. . after that, follow the rules of the Bounty Manager correctly and you will get extraordinary results.

[ahoenk]

Some of them legit project and some of them is scam project, you need to do deeper research before you work on the bounty project. So many scam bounty arround here now. Another benchmark usually you can find on ico drops and altcointalk.

[HerbertMarcel]

The newbie bounty campaign could be safe or not. There has some way to judge them. At first, a participant needs to be ensured that how many hunters participating. Secondly, How is the popularity of the sponsor's website. Thirdly, How many fans or followers of them on social sites. Fourthly, What type-token is launching and also it's included in coinMarketcap.com or not. I hope a real bounty hunter could identify an original bounty campaigner as well if they analyze the described points.

[speedforce]

Even the bounty manager is really trusty, its dont mean the bounty will success right? Some of them just fail in the middle of campaign. Just do more research about the project, and hope there's some luck to make the bounty and project be successful 

[shoreno]

moderating or moderation is a part of function in this forum and nothing to do with scams . Any one can moderate a post , I think you are just paranoid op ? And bounty is so crowded that it needs to be moderated precisely but don't worry , I know what your thinking  . what if that newbie with moderated topic delete your questions ? I have seen several complaints that their messages have been deleted but it was from the telegram group . If a group is clearly made for participants to ask question , mods should not delete the but if its in the bounty thread , that can cause spam and off topic .

[Roidz]

Even the bounty manager is really trusty, its dont mean the bounty will success right? Some of them just fail in the middle of campaign. Just do more research about the project, and hope there's some luck to make the bounty and project be successful 

The success or failure of a project of course depends on how the project team takes steps to develop the project, and the bounty manager's job is only to run and handle the campaign of a project but of course the bounty manager also has responsibility for the scam or not, because the bounty manager should have to conduct a detailed analysis of whether the project is trustworthy or not at all and of course the bounty project manager will risk their positive trust if the project they handle will have a scam impact and of course this is very detrimental to the bounty manager himself.

[bakasabo]

Right. Reputed manager differs from random in the following aspects: 1) he will make a deeper research by himself and can not be lured into managing by money (even though "every person has a price") 2) if he sees there are issues with the project (for example problem with communication or he has not received weekly/monthly payment for his work), manager will immediately put the campaign on pause. He wont give project "a chance to be managed for free while waiting for payment". 3) obvious scam wont even try to hire him

and most of these reputable BMs can be found in the Services section paying bitcoin. if it is handled by one of those BMs, high chance that the project is legit. however, there is still no assurance especially if the bounty program youre talking about is token.
since the OP is still a newbie, he has a lot to learn from these BMs. check the trust summary as a start. you can already get an idea how they are managing their campaigns.
aside from checking the BM, definitely, you need to check also the project itself. dont be lazy, as a bounty hunter, you need to know if youre just wasting your time to a specific project or not.

[chikading2016]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

Most new projects who have no ANN on this forum have no choice but to create new account for their bounty campaigns, this doesn't revel that they can't be trusted, I promoted oikos bounty project and it was introduced by a newbie account, yet all bounty hunters get paid, it's better to stick with doing research, either it's from newbie or legendary members the difference isn't that much

In essence, it is necessary to establish an account to formally introduced and disseminate information with their startup project. The rank of the bounty manager will not define the creditability of the campaign; thus, you should verify each information before participating. Regardless, some newbie bounty managers successfully handled and organized a campaign. Hence, any campaign can be high-risk, so be wary. If you are doubtful and interested to join, you can consider the ones managed by the trusted users in the forum.

Since the OP is a newbie and has negative trust, I don't think he can participate in a lot of bounty campaigns here as one requirement usually is having no negative trust. Anyway, every bounty in alts section is not reliable in my opinion. Because you have no idea whether they can pull off the project or not. So it is really better to stick to bitcoin-paying campaigns even if it is not that high-paying one. But sadly, usually btc campaigns require higher rank members.

I agree on that if the bounty manager is a newbie there will be a great posibility that the bounty is a scam,
It is better to look for the bounty that has a bounty manager that has a history of a succesful project, because if we do not search everything before we joined the campaign it is posible that we only wasting our time and effort.

[buriks]

There are so many things that we need to learn in working on a bounty campaign because if we make a mistake in understanding the project then we will not get paid anything.

1 we must understand the web project that we will follow.
2 follow the rules set by the Bounty Manager
3 always monitors the progress of the project which is informed either from the web or official telegram.

that way you will understand the flow and potential that you will receive from the payments you have done.

I agree but I think bounty manager have already check the project before accepting it. I recommend to join in bounty campaign that managed by trust bounty managers. I don't immediate blamed them if they failed to do their job if the project team itself leave the project but they should act to put them in blacklist. Participants need to research about the project. Its there responsibility to check the project before joining and they can check them if the token have already present in the market.

[Alexmagn84]

The simply opportunity to see that dependent on the key of the venture and how huge the allies are. There is a chance, that this director manage his job in wire abundance gathering and uses discussion account just to make a subject. Check everything about the venture if they are giving it in light of the fact that occasionally they shroud the subtleties and state we will share later. Try not to confide in such people groups.

[coiner-88]

They use beginner account since they would prefer not to lose any and it will be likewise hard for them to check your stakes. The group ought to consider to go through cash and that is ordinary and part of making a decent task. In the event that you need to have a superior possibility of getting into a paying abundance, pick your best administrator.

[akar87]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

I think although use with new account I think have any track record before with bounty campaign manger, maybe they want to make bitcointalk account manager have the same username with ICO project promoting and behind is this bounty campaign manage by experience bounty campaign manager, just use btt username as project ICO to make investor interested with their project, I got more like this with newbie account but behind of the have experience bounty campaign manager.

[Dessy88]

Yes there are some newbie account trusted manager who manage there own bounty. I think if a project team member want maintain there bounty service then we can trust and participate after research. Even if a bounty would payment weekly then we can participate with fell free risk.

[akar87]

Weekly payment is the best solution right now because I found with bounty campaign manager have more experience not responsibility with payment distribution, last campaign is PSYCHE where Irfan paak not have any contribution asking to PSYCHE team when distribution, we ask to bounty manager he not have answer and responsibility for distributing coin to bounty participants, better you left with all campaign manage by him because not trusted bounty campaign manager like this.

[AssociatesBumble579]

There are few ways to understand one bounty campaign is safe or not for a newbie. You have to check the previous record of the manager how successful he was. You can check the sponsor's background how effective that is and how popular as well. You have to take a look at how is the reputation of the campaign on social media. For a newbie, these are too important to follow our research. If you can do this perfectly then you can be a pro from a newbie.

[Natsuu]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

Personally, this kinds of bounty are very suspicious and must be taken vigilantly. Look for past projects, credibility of the project, research for his past performance in the forum, just dig him out and look for any source that will tell you he is reliable. If you don't find anything, then there is a high chance that this newbie manager is a scam and must not be trusted.

[Dr.Osh]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

just do some research to find out that. however, we don't know what project the newbie brought up. Honestly, I really believe if a bounty is brought by a full member or higher, especially if they use escrow for payment. even though it is like that, it will only guarantee payment, but not the success of the project. safe or not, you need to gradually identify the team and the concept.

[Maestro75]

It could be safe or not safe. What you need to do to see the track record of the bounty manager. I know that you may feel so weird to see that some campaign manager used the newbie account like bounty detective or others but you must see that based on the old campaign that successfully managed by them all.
BD has a good track record and it can be trusted but you can't sure if you will be always getting the legit campaign.

OP is talking about accounts with 2 or 3 activities and not accounts already established. Am sure when Bounty Detectives started it also faced the same credibility issue. Even to this point BD is still not trusted by many looking at some of the bounties it has managed that did not turn out well. Joining bounties is a risk, it does not matter the rank of the manager. Managers are humans too and sometimes they also get deceived.

[fahmimajannat]

Its quite simple.
You Just have to make a poa. Poa means your all information including your wallet social links etc. Than you have to simplyfill up  a form. You are done
Then Just tweet/retweet according to their rules and regulations and submit the report at the end of their certain week in thread or in the form.

[Miaallen]

I believe such projects base on my experience does that because the team developing the project want to conduct the bounty themselves without employment of a bounty manager's service. The rank doesn't mean a project will be cool or a waste of time. We've seen series of bounties managed by high ranking members of this forum that ended up being waste of time.

I'd rather advise you to do your own personal research on any project before you get engaged in their campaigns to avoid heard break and waste of time spent on the campaign.

[udidrone]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

do not be too gracious to bounty managers who have a high or famous level because some of them hold bad projects even newbee level manager if the project content looks good many bounty hunters will join so following the bounty do not rely on the level of a manager but look at the contents of the project and its progress going forward

[gwdf1]

Only experienced users can distinguish scammers from more or less honest Bounty. Now scammers are disguising themselves first class. Therefore, for beginners, I would advise to stay away from the Bounty.
Look how many people have wasted time, left without the promised money. 

[Justin999]

Its true that its risky to work with most of newbie manager cause there is no guarantee they'll pay your reward.but can't say that well reputed manager'r project would succesufull.its up to you and your analysis.for example: bountydetective and small rabbit, both were newbie manager.but good bounty manager, in my opinion.because of their well work, they gain people trust & merit and get promoted to member rank now.so all newbie aren't scammer

[Stanlo]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

They can't be easily trusted, meaning you will have to be more cautious around such Projects, there is a chance that the project is a scam or the team are managing the project themselves, I've promoted such projects in the past and I ended wasting my time, just doo good research before making any decisions

[bakasabo]

The bounty manager also depends on the project they manage. if many are scams, it becomes an indicator that the bounty is not professional in choosing a project. because we all work with the rules that we set but the bounty is not good. I currently join Small Rabbit and am currently experiencing payment delays due to high transaction fees on ethereum

So you say if in the middle of a bounty the project will eventually becomes scam, losses future interest in developing, gets financial or laws issues, you will blame bounty manager for not "choosing a good project" ? I would like to ask you, before joining, do you make your own research of fully depend on a manager? There are cases which bounty manager cant foreseen happening.

[carrie_white]

This is of course very difficult to determine whether this bounty campaign is safe or not, because it is true that a lot of bounty campaign scams are moderate on newbie accounts, but not a few can be trusted and successful, all of this depends on the project, my advice Analyze the background of the project first before you decide to join the bounty campaign

[Kezacky]

if managed by a new account, you need to be vigilant., but That doesn't mean they are already a scam to begin with, they might be new to the forum, and they want to have more reach with the cryptocurrency members everywhere. If they are diligent enough to understand and know the workarounds of Bitcointalk, they would know to hire a campaign manager or let an escrow hold the actual funds of the campaign itself.

[kesmex]

the problem is sometimes not everyone has the skills for it. and not many are willing to study for it. The solution is bigotry against the campaign manager who has brought about a successful project. and is considered the safest although it does not rule out a scam project. Many large campaign managers also end up closing their accounts and not posting campaigns anymore.

It's true that such incidents have happened often, of course,
Therefore, before joining the bounty campaign, make sure we have to find out all the information related to that campaign,
because if not we can get stuck in a scam bounty campaign and hopefully we can avoid it

[MishaSER]

I practically do not consider such projects, there is no trust and I have not met any worthy projects. Perhaps they were in the past in 2017-2018, now I am trying to participate with famous bounty managers.

[hari9981]

It's maybe safe, but for sure the project have lack of fund to hire a reputable bounty manager.
So you maybe can take a conclusion from that fact.

[Flowzer]

yes it can be safe and can not, why is that? because it all depends on the manager who manages if he is honest, of course it is safe if not then the opposite

We cant put trust to a random account who are not reputable enough.
For me its better to put your effort to work at reputable bounty manager only.

[nira09]

It's maybe safe, but for sure the project have lack of fund to hire a reputable bounty manager.
So you maybe can take a conclusion from that fact.

It could be like that, save on funds or lack of funds.
Because sometimes there are bounty programs that are managed by their own project team, they have many teams and some are experts in managing the bounty program, so they don't need to hire a bounty manager, they just create a new account with their own project name.
Who most determines the project is safe or not, not only determined by the bounty manager, but by the project itself, so before joining the bounty program it is better to learn about the project before joining.

[lousie9]

yes that's a good choice, only with projects managed by experienced managers, have a good reputation for managing any previous projects, and it's important to do some more research with the projects you want to be involved in. Related to that, every day there are always many new projects that appear and are none other than the concept of Defi. It is also important to be more careful and thorough before taking part in it.

[cheezcarls]

I don’t wanna judge newbies who are bounty managers of a specific campaign. Whether if that’s a newbie or a reputable bounty manager, what matters to me is that the funds are escrowed. There are some good bounty managers here on the forum, but they have failed to reach a deal with their respective projects to put the funds into escrow. As a result, there are delays of distributing tokens, or the project disappeared in an instant, etc.

[pressnegl]

That doesn’t mean those bounty managers are newbies. They might be Full Members, Sr. Members, Hero Members or even Legendaries, who created new temporary account in order to keep anonymous their main account. Nevertheless that tells nothing about safety of the bounty project.

[HerbertMarcel]

There was a time when I got free Altcoin by participating in many bounties. Now the question is how do I know which bounty is trusted and which is not trusted, right? Every time I saw the manager's preview history. If this manager is paying for his previous projects. Then I would participate in that bounty. There are more experts than me who participate in the bounty after seeing and hearing everything, so I read the comments on that thread and see how many people participated in the bounty. Hope you got your answer.

[AssociatesBumble579]

I don't believe it Personally. Some projects value the community enough to hire a respectable manager to run their campaign, while others do not. Of course, this doesn't mean that the project is fake and won't pay bounty participants, but not all of them are, sometimes they are also kind and trustworthy, but we can't trust most of them completely.

[sniveel]

I don't really believe that bounty campaigns runs by a newbie ranked bounty managers is legit. There are times that those bounties are being created just to gain folllowers on their social media accounts and add more people on their channels or groups, and later they will change the name of those pages and channels to their personal accounts once they had much followers. But I do believe if the forum username is the project itself even if it is still a newbie.

The very chance that the project manager is under  management of the team itself, if the newbie account was name under the project very likely that it's the team responsibilities whatever happened with the bounty.


Incase something happened, hunters can blamed the manager and it will reflect to the project itself. 

It won't  affect you much if you manage to do your research, investigate and follow first the development

of every project that you are targeting, success of receiving rewards depends from the success of the entire project.

[jjdub7]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

My personal opinion is that the rank in the bitcointalk of the bounty manager is not so important. There are campaigns that have their own managers and they create new accounts. There are those who choose the services of specialists such as bounty detectives for example. If you want to research the bounty campaign and the project itself has much more important criteria to follow, there are many open topics here about this.

[skarais]

Bounty campaign is the  ieo or ico projects that you can promote to have token or coins its either btc,eth or other altcoins.and in bounty campaign its not easy to work for it you have to do efforts and also a good researcher because you may be fooled if you dont know how to look for a good project to work.

The average bounty campaign is a new altcoin project and is still in the sale stage. Fund obtained from sale are used to develop future project as well as other thing included in future project plan. It is not difficult to understand the basic of bounty because participant only focus on spreading the word from the campaign they are currently participating in. However, finding a bounty campaign that has the potential to be good is something that may be difficult because participant still need a lot of information so that the work of the participant is not in vain.

My personal opinion is that the rank in the bitcointalk of the bounty manager is not so important.

Indeed, but the reputation of a manager will greatly affect the quality of the campaign he manage. If the manager has quality, of course he has carried out due diligence on the project he will manage and often bounty campaign give good result to the participant.

[Fivestar4everMVP]

I think it doesn't really matter whether they moderate by newbie, 2 or 3 activity like you said, but what matters is the credibility of the bounty manager as well as those behind the project, why I added those behind the project is because sometimes, the bounty manager can be credible but the owners of the project can have a bad motive, so project accepting newbies with as little as two or three activities doesn't mean the bounty campaign is scam, and it doesn't mean the campaign is legit either, it all depends on the motives of those behind the project and the manager of the bounty.

This is true but not all the time because i do always much prefer on joining bounty campaigns which do came or being handled by those known BM's on this market rather than on
joining with those newbies but same as you said but it isnt all the time on where these newbie managers wont really able to end up on having a successful bounty campaign.
I cant really just trust up those low ranks on handling out campaign even though success isnt really guaranteed to those known managers but at least you do know that
they are screening out those projects first before they do decide neither they would be handling it out or not.

[jajorforce]

After creating an ANN thread, any scam projects can launch scam projects. Open a new account and making a copper member is easier. When you know how to research, you won't check the newbies account, after this mover. Most of the new are free, but the value isn't the same.

[bakasabo]

Scam projects dont even bother creating ANN thread anymore. In a current bullish market, the dont spend time on ANN. Instead, they would better do two bounty topics and try to reach more investors. Some greedy even skip buying cooper membership to create more attractive topic, but try to buy either ranked account or merit (I've already seen bounty topic first post receives merit from an account with negative rating).

[Cornia]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

I think bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities mostly are not safe and believable. Because creating a newbie id, wearing copper member title is very easy. So they don't worry about their id and they promote any bounty campaign without any research. On the other hand, high rank campaign managers, spend some of their time researching when promoting bounty.

If there's a chance to work with bounty managers with a higher rank and good trust score then you must choose it. I'm not saying working with newbie bounty manager is not safe as I believe there are also newbie bounty managers who had already run a successful bounty campaign, but think this way, a high rank with good trust rating is risking his account and therefore he will loss his account if he scam the bounty hunters.

[GideonGono]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

It is not about the campaign managers rank you should be looking for you should pay more attention to the project itself.
They are just managing the campaign they aren't responsible for the outcome of the project.

[junkerr]

I saw this phenomenon in early 2019. Many managers with new names and membership rankings are still very doubtful about holding a campaign.
but I believe they are not new. they were old people who came with new faces to get rid of the bad name of a project they had worked on before.

[imran101]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

To understand this you need to do some review. Those who have been working on the Bounty project for a long time can take help. If you are a little experienced, you must understand which bounty project is better than which project is a scam. Most projects at the present time can be trusted. It contains some project scams which are comparatively much less

[bakasabo]

If you see a bounty managed by a newbie (without cooper membership), I would suggest to skip it. This will be most likely a scam, and after a few days new project would appear. Scammers stamp this campaigns like on a conveyor belt.
Look on the name of a manager also, if this is a newbie and has name related to a project - take a risk, join it for a week and see if a managers fills spreadsheet. After check if the spreadsheet is filled correctly (if manager really check weekly tasks to be done and not automatically put stakes. of course if will take time, but this is your partial insurance). If a newbie manager has name like "ghfdg78" or "goodprofit777" or has "-official/_official" in name, I would skip that campaign too.

Plus a moderated thread and you see a lot of deleted posts as well.
I understand that thread should be kept clean but when the project has just started and there are a lot of deleted posts already instead of OP addressing the issue. It's surely a red flag.

[bonyaserg]

A couple of years ago there were many bounty companies and it was very interesting to participate in different bounty companies. And when you are participating in an award, it is very difficult to determine if it is really an award until you participate and find out. And I came to the conclusion that you need to participate and thus get a great experience in the bounty. And the more I participated in the bounty, the more experience I got. And you can also determine if a manager is a fraud, then you can immediately find out about this manager on the forum. Therefore, I advise you to participate and learn from your mistakes.

[Vishnu.Reang]

not all bounty prizes are safe all there must be risks, so in that case we must be able to understand and learn how the team that manages the project works, because nowadays there are also many scamer projects that haunt bounty hunters, in every bounty we must always look at the whiterpaper if it is in accordance with the rules then the project can be followed.

ICO market is quite saturated right now and only the best project will be successful in the market. So you need to carefully research about the project before enrolling in to the bounty campaign, and also you need some luck on your side. Because I have seen a lot many of the new projects failing because of difficult market conditions. In such cases those who invested directly in the ICO will be reimbursed for their coins. But all the effort put by the bounty hunter will be wasted.

[santiPOGI]

Well, you need to understand what it is mate. Bounty campaign is a place where you possibly earn or not.
You might be one of the victim of scam in the end or your effort could also be steal in the end. There are so many ways
for you to know about the bounty campaign, use this platform or google search and find out the good and bad of this thing
anyway. Good day

Yes, when a bounty thread is moderated. You'll mostly see only applications and there's no criticism that's open for everyone. Because that's the other reason why unknown managers are making their threads moderated.
To avoid people who are criticizing them and the bounty that they promote. But the good thing is that if they're advertising a scam, they can easily be seen through their trust.

[Jackl87]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

The fact alone that the bounty is managed by a new member of the forum is no indication that the bounty is a scam. Some projects just decide to manage their bounty themself and therefore create an account here to do that.
Of course the risk of a scam bounty is higher with a new and unknown bounty manager compared to those campaigns that are managed by the well known and appreciated bounty managers here in this forum.

[ivankoh]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

My experience is that most such bonuses do not guarantee integrity for purity.  How do you trust your reports to exist and not be abused when they have total control over them.  Although a project is good, but it does not guarantee fairness and integrity, the more risks.  Of course, the decision will be each participant's.  and we live in a blockchain-specific environment of discovery, any direct control doesn't make much sense.

[Dobrodav]

  I only join bounty with good design. not care about anything else. )) sometime I take nothing but it's ok. Normal

[Luffygroove]

for me, it's going back to the project itself. it's not always depends on the manager, but ofcourse higher level manager will make you sure more. You should do your own research about this. Is the project itself makes sense, what about the developer team are they real etc. Based on my experience, we actually can sense their intention and performance. How you can sense the community, whether they're passionate or not. I thought we can work based on that points. I always do my job whole heartedly if I feel that's a great project, and use my half fuel for a mediocre or even unworthy project just incase I've met antother great project

[aryana42]

I only join bounty with good design. not care about anything else. )) sometime I take nothing but it's ok. Normal

I used to say this too, but with time and responsibility in life, this kind of thing will no longer apply to me, because time is a very valuable asset, so use it before you feel sorry for throwing it away, so obviously it is not normal for people who already have family and responsibilities.

[bakasabo]

I only join bounty with good design. not care about anything else. )) sometime I take nothing but it's ok. Normal

What kind of design you are talking about ? Signature design or projects webpage? Set of signatures can be bought here just for $10-20 and design - depends on the budget. Some free design templates looks better than those who are made by professionals.
Share your experience with us. Is your tactics working in most of the cases or not. Frankly, I would not recommend joining bounty just because it has nice design. The design is one thing, but content, product and team are what makes project successful.

[preikaler]

yes it can be safe and can not, why is that? because it all depends on the manager who manages if he is honest, of course it is safe if not then the opposite

Manager has nothing to do with the campaign unless if they are part of the team but most of the time it is really been handled out by reputable bounty manager of this forum which we could say that
they are just handling out the campaign and has nothing to do with payments. Safety wont really be that guaranteed yet we know that projects could really not able to pay those
bounty hunters if they do really have that kind of intent in the first place.This is why its really suggested to make out some research first before making any step forward
or deal  with bounties on which you could really have at least the chance on earning out of your effort and time spent on doing those bounty task.

[bitterguy28]

The Odds are very small that they are reliable and risk free , But i have seen several bounties that had been runs by Newbie and even freshly created account but as it is a company representative that wanted to interact with us directly so they choose to run with their own than hiring managers.

But if you are not willing to spend your time without any single token then best to not joining those new account running a bounty .

Yeah, even if they were freshly made accounts as the company representatives, still carry a risk of unpaid after the bounty ended. So for that case, try to deem if that project/company is legit and serious enough in their effort to manage the bounty campaign. If they doing in the half-heart attempt, lax rule then most likely they just want to get as many people in to shill their shitty tokens and scoot away.

[virasisog]

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

Bounty campaign that moderate by newbie is scam most of the times.  But you can participate in the bounties that manages by a group or team. However, if the bounty manager is renowned and the fund is in escrow, the guarantee of payment is higher. Above all, there is no guarantee of receiving payment from the bounty.

Joining in bounties managed by newbies is too risky. It's not that we're doubting newbies' capability but it's the reputation that we should check first. We must always check on the team behind each project. Also, we should double-check the potential of the project of our choice because scam bounties are everywhere. Some of them are just attracting investors but won't pay their participants in the end.

[Amicable55]

As I am also a Newbie and I participated in 24 campaigns when I joined in March. The process completed in May and till now I have not a single penny. But I research about the legit bounty and I conclude.
1. @Julerz12 and @CryptopreneurBrainboss gives maximum positive results.
2. Visit spreadsheet and if it not updated dashboard and spreadsheet weekly then maximum chances that it is not a legit bounty.
3. See the status and merit because higher merit BM will not think about negative trust.
4. Now BTC is down so projects are not coming in these days.

[bakasabo]

3. See the status and merit because higher merit BM will not think about negative trust.

This rule does not work always. There are projects that wants to run bounties themselves. Their rank can be Jr. Member or Cooper member maximum (they sometimes get merit if then run an ANN topic and update it). Once I have participated in a bounty managed by, if not mistaken, Legendary forum member with a donator sub-rank. There were problems with spreadsheet calculations and in the end bounty ended with nothing (rewards were not distributed, bounty was abandoned).

Sometimes those newbies or those low level accounts are more legit than a higher level account that already has its merit and also has a positive trust. A person can be trusted today but there is a chance that they will change.

Many incidents like that happened on this forum, not only on this forum actually but even on other sites that I visit. I wonder why they do that? Hhmm. Maybe that's really how stuff's work on this world. Sometimes all we really need is a luck. If we are lucky we can get paid, no matter what and then value of our tokens can grow really huge but if not and if we are unlucky then prepare for the worst that can come.

Sometimes those newbies or those low level accounts are more legit than a higher level account that already has its merit and also has a positive trust. A person can be trusted today but there is a chance that they will change.

Many incidents like that happened on this forum, not only on this forum actually but even on other sites that I visit. I wonder why they do that? Hhmm. Maybe that's really how stuff's work on this world. Sometimes all we really need is a luck. If we are lucky we can get paid, no matter what and then value of our tokens can grow really huge but if not and if we are unlucky then prepare for the worst that can come.

Both views are correct that the campaign manager's rank does not necessarily reflect his credibility. But let's be more realistic when we look at the issue from the point of view of the novice members, that is, those who have no experience in how the forum systems work. Is it not better to set merit points as a primary criterion for selecting campaigns according to their managers?

I think, first of all, you need to check the project and the reputation of the founders. If there are everything clear -  jump in. Rank not consistently shows on a good bounty.

PS: always check the legitimacy of bounty in the project's social networks. Also, match the budget allocated for the Bounty campaign.

There are so many bounty campaign that moderate by newbie with 2/3 activities, is that kind of bounty are safe and believable?

Indeed, there are many newbie accounts that moderate projects, but some are official accounts of project owners, they manage their own projects without hiring managers who often manage projects on this forum. But there is a fake project and then create a newbie account to avoid problems with the previous account. But for me, newbie and legend have no effect. If they are honest people, even newbies they will do the job right. But if they are not honest, any rank will still make mistakes. However, projects managed by legendary managers have more potential than those managed by newbies.

You can check if they are part of a team, or if they have a community that many people follow. Because newbies are just new accounts created to manage projects, of course they are also experienced in this forum, it's just that they don't want to take risks with their previous accounts.
