Here is your answer.
They said, they'll sure pay but atm team is busy with the project development.
That doesn't sound like much of an answer, and the whole "if we wanted to scam, we'd...." sounds
exactly like something a scammer would say (and that many scammers have indeed said).
How can a project be too busy to pay out the people who've helped advertise for them and whom they've promised to pay, presumably by a specified date? Has your real-life employer ever told you that they couldn't take care of the payroll because they were "too busy"? Hell no! Even if they don't end up scamming their bounty hunters, this project is seriously making itself look like cunts by doing this.
I still don't understand why some projects decide not pay bounty hunters the tokens they owe them. I mean, they are just worthless tokens created out of nowhere. So why is it so hard for them?
You do realize that there are some people who just like to fuck with other people, right? Even if handing out little packets of nothing would satisfy the people they promised the packets to, there are some idiots who'd withhold them just to be able to exert power over desperate people. I'm not sure that's the case in this situation, but the longer it goes on the more it begins to look like it is.
