Convince me that bounties paying in anything other than Bitcoin are worth it

I am gonna be honest that I tried some bounty campaigns back in the days. It was like a test in the waters, not like I expect any profits at all. I only joined SCs though I partially joined one social media campaign which was FB campaign, but I stopped it after not having anything that time plus it turned out to be a scam.
It is just not that worth the time to do if you aren't getting paid after a week of your work. It is exhausting, and what more if that average of 3 months didn't also pay off?

I obviously still participate here and there, but what you are saying is true. You could hit a right one rarely, but usually the rules get changed after the fact, the campaign gets cancelled or bounty participants have to wait three months for their payment and by now the dev team dumped their tokens already. The problem in my eyes is that most teams never really run these campaigns with the intention to really create a win-win situation between the teams and the bounty supporters. They mostly run the campaigns knowing that they will let the supporters hanging one way or another.

I want to know how much you guys are earning with these bounties that offer "stakes" for doing certain tasks because I am not convinced that they are legitimate. Here is why I think that. Lets say you did a signature campaign paying in their coin that is currently worth nothing but you put in hours of work to get this token with the anticipation that it might be worth something at some point. However as soon as it is worth something all the other participants in that signature campaign will be thinking the same thing. Withdraw. That then causes a dump effect on the token and you are back to it being worthless again.

I am 100% sure that most bounties today have the same teams behind them and they continue to do the same process each time in an attempt of being successful once out of the million times they have tried before. In modern times we have become accustomed to minimum wages or at least fair wages but you guys are doing work for nothing at the time of completing your work on the promise that they will be worth something down the line. Would you work for a company in the fiat world if they promised you to give you shares in their company without any guarantee that they would be successful?

I just do not understand why people would want to work for free without any guarantees at all. If you are really unlucky you could spend 1000s of hours doing work for these bounties and profit nothing. I am interested in hearing about your experience with these bounties and how much you profit when it comes to withdrawing the tokens.

Today they are almost all scam projects or projects that are made only to create initial hype and then die! There are no more bountys than there used to be where you earned even 10 thousand dollars per signature! Sorry you arrived too late!

I think the same as you so I am not going to make any attempt to convince you, what the people that are doing that do not understand is that they are letting the developers to get every single aspect of this transaction on their favor, if the project fails then the developers got free promotion and  do not have to pay anything to anyone, however if the project is successful then they can put all kind of barriers so people do not get the tokens they worked for and pay as little as possible, so I agree with you that those people are wasting their time.

In 2017 then I was quite happy because some of the projects I participated in were successful and quite quite a payment that I received for my work.
But for the current year I think many bounty hunters are restless because many projects do not pay and the complexity of regulations when distribution.
My advice for the time now when wanting to follow a bounty program we have to really carefully choose a project that really pays when successful and on time in distribution.
My suggestion to join a trusted telegram bounty manager channel such as detective, Hhampuz, Irfan(bounty portals) is an alternative step to get a project that really pays and has a good future.

i have seen several projects here that were successful already, but when it comes to paying their bounty hunters, it took for them long time before they finally closed their chapter to their bounty hunters. and the bad thing - the price of the token is already down, very far from their target price when they offer the bounty to the participants. joining in this type of campaign depends on the person himself. if he decided to partake in this kind of campaign, he should be ready that the payment may get delayed or worst, not paid or get paid but the value is not worth selling at the market. many people are taking the risk to join bounty programs for the hope that they will get paid of course, and they will get good value. however, only few projects can realise such promise.

What I'm saying is, it's worth it if you also have a use and an interest in it. But if there isn't any of these things, forget. Take BTC, ETC, LTC, even DOGE.

How much did you earn from that one bounty and how long and how many other bounties have you been a participant in? $22 is probably better than most but it depends on the amount of coin you earned from the bounty. I am not being convinced by people saying that they have only had one or two bounties work out for them when their post history indicates they have been doing it for over 3 years that is not a efficient way of earning money at all.

It was a temporary bounty, they didn't even call it that at the time. And if you count signature campaigns, then I've only been member of a few. In fact, was with Bitdice for years until they closed (that's me, I stick to one and never move until they close). Payment wasn't much, but $40 or $50 a week really really adds up when you count how much Bitcoin has gained over the years.

I think those guys who say "1 bounty is all you need" lived in 2017 and that cannot be sustained. I see my signature campaign as an additional means to reward what I already love doing, which is interacting on this forum:)

coming late doesn't mean he didn't start? he can start at any time as long as he doesn't make income from this forum as his main source of income. We're here discussing at least brainstorming, providing solutions, about being late and I don't appreciate him coming at the right time to make a statement.

[Dewi Aries]

Maybe what can convince people to do signature campaign that paid in tokens or altcoins is bitcoin signature campaign usually really fast to be filled and usually only a few slot available and rules sometimes more strict than usual altcoin signature campaign.

Yes, being late is not an excuse for not doing anything or giving up because a lot of time has passed, because for a warrior late words are not an obstacle for him to start something better for himself and his family too.

Well we all know that doing bounty campaign is not worth it all the time some campaigns don't even pay Hunters at all especially if the project turned out to be very successful.But it is not always all the time that projects refuse to pay hunters.Many bounties pay and some coins after payment perform incredibly well in the market if the hunter was able to hold them for some time he will make a good profit out of it.Been in this forum for years and have earn a great deal by participating in bounty campaigns

I have been participating in bounty campaigns for the fifth year already. So far I have not invested a single cent in cryptocurrency, but have already withdrawn several tens of thousands of dollars into ordinary currency. It's worth the effort if you have the time to spare. Of course, the result of this type of activity is completely unpredictable. A project that is inconspicuous at first glance can yield much more profit than a well-promoted one. However, about a third of the work remains unpaid for various reasons. And every year it becomes more and more difficult to work. I am also unpleasantly surprised by the fact that there are fewer and fewer signature campaigns. This may lead to the fact that the effectiveness of the work of this forum may significantly decrease.

Yes, it's true with that, the signature campaign is not something to think about for those who invest, because the signature campaign is a system that is commonly used among crypto market assets.
now try to present a project that promises a long-term project or a future project, because a project is very meaningful in the crypto asset market.

it talks about choice and every job has risks, of course there are bounty hunters who have felt the results of their work and there are also those who have not been lucky.  I think bounty hunters are those who have set their portion of time to work, not only on bounties, but also those who trade in various world markets.

and I'm sure many are not aware of the risks involved. there are still many who complain to the bounty manager if there is a distribution problem or a missing project.
we really haven't maximized our knowledge and skills to avoid that risk. I'm sure everyone will thrive, and those who want to learn will find it fast.

Bounties which offer stakes are not the most trustworthy but there is a profit to be made. I think you are getting held up to much on the issue of working for free or the prospect of working for free. It is a bit like investing if you like a project and you think it is going to be worth something some day you would then be more willing to work for less if you think its going to be worth a lot more in the future no? Just like you invest in a altcoin or Bitcoin and with no promises that it will increase in price you expect it to go up so you do not mind paying into Bitcoin with this reason and its the same for bounties.

You look at the team members, how actively they are developing, how transparent they are and if they have any red flags. If the altcoin has some technical features which are exciting then you might want to invest in it and you can do that through bounties instead of investing cash. There are probably members here that have made over $10000 in a short space of time just from doing bounties.

We are all investors here and we all take a gamble and bounties are the same as investing with cash or Bitcoin but instead you are doing a little work for it. I think bounties are a great way of building up some capital to invest in other things to.

[junmisakiro]

in a pandemic condition like this it might be worth it but you have to know that paying with tokens will usually be cheaper than paying bitcoin which in my opinion can be more expensive and of course paying with bitcoin will usually be given every week so it will be better and of course will be more promising.

[Sithara007]

Bounty hunters are always at the receiving end whenever a project fails. All of their time and effort put in to the campaign goes to waste, if the project fails to achieve the soft-cap level. This is why previously I had proposed a minimum payment (can be very small like BTC0.001 or 0.01 ETH) for the bounty hunters irrespective of whether the project manages to achieve the soft cap or not. But then, the ICO promoters are going to oppose it, because it will add some financial burden. But look at the overall numbers. If a project is targeting for a soft-cap of $50 million, then they should be ready to spend at least 0.1% of that to the bounty hunters, right?

I just do not understand why people would want to work for free without any guarantees at all. If you are really unlucky you could spend 1000s of hours doing work for these bounties and profit nothing. I am interested in hearing about your experience with these bounties and how much you profit when it comes to withdrawing the tokens.

If you want to get value for this work, everyone needs to spend time every day, every week to check the projects. It should be realized that, there are types of bonuses that have their own budget and some projects just try to start a project with fundraising, they don't even have any bounty funding budget. Of those, most are worthless. So, bounty and investing it are almost the same, working and supporting the project that you consider to be quality, you see that the team has their enthusiasm and efforts to go to success. If you decide to support them, forget about the "benefit" or take the risk when it fails.
You choose a job that is free, but demands too much. So you don't want to trade off and will continue to work 8 hours a day?

I guess you have not yet participated in a bounty campaign where you made thousands of dollars, if you have made that kind of profit you will always look for a bounty that will give you big profit when it hit the market, I experience that on some bounty,  some are paying thousands some hundreds of dollars, it's worth it if you find a good project to promote.
