Bounty is taking another direction

[lornadane]

I have not been in the bounty world for almost 2 years since the beginning of 2020. Maybe now there have been many changes that have made me have to adapt again regarding the existing bounty rules. As we know, many crypto projects fail during distribution, so bounty managers often delay until finally there is no clarity on payments. When it comes to wasting time, it's clear that it leaves you nothing.

Yes it's true that now the rules are strict and those who participate in the bounty must also make reports in English.
But now there are many projects that pay per week and the payment is also in USDT.
That way they have clear their income every week even though the difference is far from the bounty payments in last years, but they are satisfied with the weekly pay they get because they are paid directly.

The term 'BOUNTY' refers to as a reward for some specific act, especially one given by an authority or a government. But this definition is taking another dimension because most of the project owner or BMs don't really care enough about bounty hunters reward(s). To participate in bounty now is good as wasting your time. How on earth can someone earn $1-2 for working at least five days each week in a month? Does that sound good to you? This is incredible! Something has to be done about this before bounty turn to scam in it entirety. What's your view, opinion and suggestions on this?

This is becoming a consistent issue in regards to Bounty as you mentioned several suggestions have been made in this regard but at the end of the day, hunters, for now, have the sole responsibility in choosing what bounty project they want to partake in like those that escrowed, those that pay weekly, the Bounty manager involved and so on cos we have seen many complaints of bounties paying way less than what was proposed or bounties not paying at all after work done.

The problem that you are stating here is pretty much only true for altcoin bounties i would say. In the altcoin section there are hundreds of bounties available and almost every user will be accepted. This also means of course that there are a lot of Bots that are joing the bounties and this then also means that every legit participant gets less money for participating. Then the next big issue with altcoin bounties is that they are mostly paying in their own token of course and in most of the cases those token will never have any worth because new altcoin projects often fail to be successful.
There are also BTC paying bounties offered in this forum (like the one i am part of) and there the pay rates are pretty good. This also means of course that it is way harder to get accepted in those bounties in comparison to the altcoin bounties.

Usually with social media campaign bounty reward about $3 until 5$ almost running until four and five weeks campaign, Looks terrible reward maybe bounty campaign have little reward allocation and participants is not limited, this why make reward earn stuck with $5 only with thousand participant on social media campaign bounty. I think you can improved your content or video quality and there have higher reward with several participant only than joined with social media campaign only.

Yeah! sine we already know the most outcome of recent bounties for the last three years, we can exactly say that bounty has taken another term that's its past meaning where the participants might also assume that instead of getting rewards, he will also get some disappointment where he won't believe what gonna happens after the end of each bounty. some of the bounties give rewards with no problem while others will snob you and steal your effort without paying you anything and the new trend right now is the little payment they give which doesn't really make sense at all.

I've heard about many project teams not fulfilling their own promises, some will pay bounty hunters half and won't bother to pay the rest, I dont understand why many projects can't pay a bounty hunters in BTC or ETH instead of their native token that may never worth anything later, here is my own judgment, No Escrow No Promotion simple as ABC.

Even sometimes there are projects only paid half of the allocation, half again not paid in accordance with the agreement they provide, if asked by many reasons they say, which the end of the payment is also not carried out in accordance with the initial agreement, this is what makes people's beliefs have a little lost to them now, it's even fairer if we only choose the project clearly to participate in participation, rather than waste time with an unclear project

But so far not everything is the same because I still see new projects or new campaigns that pay bounty hunters on time and campaigns that pay BTC are also still very smooth in paying each of their participants on time, so in conclusion not all projects like you said it.

Bounty is one of a campaign promoting their product, so it's not confusing that they pay with the project's own token. This is a way of distributing their tokens to the market to stimulate token supply and demand.
Honestly, bounty campaign now only happens with junk projects, shitcoins, very few of them will succeed. Bounty in my opinion is almost dead and no longer effective for the project nor the bounty hunters.

Was what I also knew, then I came across this forum's section of the same.

I would not bring Bounty Managers to the same low level though. Many of them have paid from their pockets when the project turned scam just to compensate for the hunters. Such incidents often remain unheard of but they happen.

Then there are those bounty managers who dont care what happened after the project ended its bounty. The choice to enter the bounty is on the hunter.

It has already become a scam a long time ago. The only way to stop it is to voluntarily stop participating in them. But in real sense, that would never happen because there will always be someone willing to jump into the smell of free money.

I know that there is a few bounties that have a decent reward but the majority are really turning into a scam and hunters get nothing. That I could say that the time has come that we have to forget about bounty hunting, they are not just wasting our time, we are helping them instead to scam people by promoting their projects in the forum.

This hasn't noticed by most and not even in their mind because the only thing they saw is the rewards. They don't care about what they are about to promote.

Bounties turning scam because most of them dont have a good idea behind. They dont bring anything new to the market. They just try to repeat what is already created, hoping that they will get noticed. If previously projects cheat on hunters and everyone, because they have raised something from investors and disappear with money, then now projects cheat on hunters because they dont have spare funds to distribute rewards.

Those who are complaining for low payment - but you did not do extra ordinary tasks and spend just a few minutes a day. Why do you expect big reward with such effort? Besides, you can participate in 20 bounties and your reward might be 20 times more.

[Adbitco]

There is a rule for all bounty's and it's not must to enroll in any campaign, if I were you I would take brief analysis of participants to know if the bounty you are enrolling worth payable or not. Sincerely speaking there's nothing you can do about payment rather BM has to limits participants in order for participants to receive a tangible payout though most project owners needs maximum visibility so projects can't limit people but is only BM who will do that and is based on the agreement between owners and BM.

Not sure what the point of discussing about bounties are here in the forum since it is pretty much hit or miss now these days and if I can recall correctly, they are all already dead due to how many scams people are doing in this space. You're better off freelancing for data entry if that is what you're after, plus a potential client that could be yours for a lot of days.
Bounties also tend to pay in shit tokens which just don't last long obviously.

[Crypto Library]

Yes, you are right.  However, most of the current bounty hunters have working bounties up to 10, 20, in some cases up to 40, 50, in  case of that the quality of their work has decreased.  It has been seen that they are doing the work by copying and pasting.  Therefore, the amount of payment has decreased from here.  Even so, some of bounties gaves good amount of payment.  In this case, you have to pay attention to select bounty.

It can't be denied that the current bounty is very different from the bounty 2 years ago, where there are currently a lot of scammers, there are also those who pay their participants in installments, of course this is very disappointing, like the bonty manager is currently testing try the coin they developed, so the bonus is not in accordance with what they promised, but whatever it is I as a bonty hunter will work as much as possible to find the right, correct and profitable bonus, because I think there are still bonuses that pay the participants are like what was promised, therefore we must remain optimistic mate....

That is why it is important to see the road map of each project at first and some people prefer the campaign paid weekly because it doesn't need much time to wait for payment to arrive after working in every week. And I personally at this time also saw a bounty campaign whose duration was not too long so it wasn't too long to wait for payment even though it was still very dependent on the project team in general.

Let's be real here, if it's real money they will do anything to get whatever the amount they will receive later. They don't really care about that, they will get mad once they received it to their wallet which is pretty normal and usual stuff on each bounty group you can find in this forum. For third world country, getting free money while doing almost nothing? That's a miracle for them.

They can just make bunch of multi-accounts just to get a "decent" amount of money from it which is really wrong and break the rules in my opinion.

[Dessy88]

I think you should take the idea that Bounty is a part time job and here you can't be completely depend. In addition to working at bounty you should have another permanent job. Because not all bounty will pay you, so it is a second source of income. Besides, no one will force you to work on bounty, so you can get paid to work on good bounty. But you have to be more thoughtful about that.

In bounty hunting you also need to be patience, sometimes the payment or allocation is really small, but once the project you promoted become succesful the tokens alocated which is 1 to 2$ can become more valuable and may reach up to thousands of dollars if you hold, during bounty campaign the project is still at the development stage that is why most of the token are worthless, my suggestion is stop looking at the worthless token just continue bounty hunting and you can find good reward in the next couple of month, not all rewards are small you just also need to choose the good project that can possibly become successful in the future and if you find the right one you can surely earn.
