Bounties and Airdrops

[Issa56]

I think is just better you forget about bounties, most bounties now are scam and the once that pay their payments are always small. But I won't really discourage you, just follow some managers on the forum, some of them still drop legit bounties and some bounty payments are in stable coins or in bitcoin,, so I will advise you to give it a trial and see.

You are really telling the truth.Earlier good payments were available but now it has become like Bounty Airdrop.But if you follow some good managers, you still have a chance to earn good income

Recently I noticed that some people participated in seasonal bounty which was organized by CryptopreneurBrainboss  as the bounty manager, the bounty payments was in bitcon and he escrow the money, I believed some of the bounty hunters got decent amount of money as reward, that's why I said you should always follow some bounty manager. If you don't follow managers you will just end up working for scam projects and without receiving any reward.

I haven't been checking bounties and airdrops lately, but I reckon it's not anymore as decent as years ago. You can easily notice here in the forum how bounty signatures are not as widely seen as before. Most of the signatures that I can observe these days are Bitcoin-paid campaigns. As you can read from the other replies, it might not be worth it anymore. But there might still be a handful of good ones every once in a while. By good, I mean they pay you and with tokens which are a little better than completely worthless ones.

Following a Bounty Manager always will not help. You do need to check the project and if possible read the whitepaper. I personally think that projects that are related to the crypto universe always stand out and perform well in the future. It is very hard to find such project these days  earlier there were many but now projects are basically copycats.

Will suggest you not to invest your time and efforts in these bounty works as they are not worth it saying from my personal experience.In the past similar to you i also participated in them to earn some extra with minimal work but they all turned out to be scam and i get nothing but a lesson to stay away from them.The tokens you get out of their huge supply are almost of low value and you need to wait lot for payments also or don't get it last.

Op, you came earlier when I heard that bounty was more lucrative. I heard that bounty paid very when, it is unfortunate that backed out when it was lucrative and chose to return now that many scam projects are roaring, seeking for whom to consume. Well, since you have earlier experience, you could be successful at it, just follow the links provided you earlier and access the sub board.

I do not think the shiny blue text is cool in a sky blue background. Please, next time consider to type in default black text so that you wouldn't have to stress the sight others. You can consider to edit and return it to default color.

 Now I can't remember which sections on this forum publish bounties and air drops. So please educate me about places that I can grab them in this forum and out side as well. I really appreciate your help. Thanks in advance[/color]

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=238.0 This will address you to the Bounties section. Yes, you can see a lot of bounties there but then, never expect that it was similar to 2017 airdrops and bounties will some of them give you such surprising amounts. And please never thing that you can make money from them easily, it is somehow you need time and effort to see legit and promising bounties that will give a decent rewards as we can't deny that majority of them are worthless and scammy.

OP, you can still make money on this, especially if you live in some third world country. All the comments above confirm this: users of high ranks simply write the same thing in the best traditions of shitposters of 2017, while 99% of them have a paid signature with advertising. All these campaigns with paid signatures are nothing but bounties. They're just in a different section, since they pay in bitcoins.
Conclusion: as it was said in one famous TV series - "everyone lies." Author, gradually upgrade your account and create competition for those who are so afraid of it.

I understand what you are trying to explain, but there is a difference between the two which is probably very obvious. The expected post quality on signature campaigns paying bitcoin is much stricter compared to the post quality of bounty participants who are paid at the end of the campaign (new altcoin payment).

Of course these two types of campaigns can be called bounties, but we recognize that there are differences in post quality between participants. Many bounty managers are not users in good reputation and also don't have good promotion management so they only target ads regardless of how much spam the participants generate. But I'm pretty sure the management of bitcoin signature campaigns is much stricter about the quality of participant posts. I know you understand it very well, even without my explanation.

I remember, when I began to participate in Bounties and in Airdrops in 2017, there were huge numbers of new coins getting into the market. I remember, too many were fake and we were not paid but yes received for other which were very genuine and now those coins one of the top coins with good trading volume. When participating on a bounty campaign, check out the infrastructures, team members and their profiles, money invested and their project towards. This wold define you the right and genuine coin getting into the market.

If it's the usual bounty and airdrop, they're all correct that it's a waste of time and it's not worth it anymore. There are rare projects that distribute airdrops to their participants not by just the typical filling up of forms and posting POA.

But by doing such tasks like contributing to their tests, helping them in validation and other technical stuff and that's no marketing on their end. Some are worth it to join but I don't have interests on them.

That's what I have seen that many folks really do spend time for those projects but it's difficult to determine if it will be a good one or not.

The majority of these bounties and airdrops are worthless, even those reputable managers who manage them have no escape, they got not paid as well.

These people are encouraging participants to help promote their projects in exchange to some amounts as they have promised to pay them after but guess what? It was just a broken promise and it won't just break their heart and wasted their time but also ruins the reputation of the market which discourages investors to put money in here.

If you have free time to spend then actually you can try it all along, there are so many airdrops around especially those testnets which require you to do some task before you will be eligible to receive their tokens and also there are platform gives rewards to people who trade on Uniswap or use the opensea so care to try but don't expect to much because as other said majority of airdrop is waste of time but if you can risk then this is also good to try.

You're right, I'm doing airdrop as well as Ted.I make good money from airdrop? If you want, you can trade as well as airdrop

It is true that most bounty campaigns are now scammed and as a result there is not enough payment at the end of bounty camping. The amount of Bounty Hunters has increased a lot but the quality of their work is not very good. Currently the market is bad but if the high rank members of Bitcointalk are working well then hopefully some good results of Bounty Camping can come in the future.

Airdrop Issue: Currently Bitcointalk has declared the initiative illegal so that no Airdrop is launched on Bitcointalk. In my opinion, it is better not to do the work of Air Drop, it is a very bad situation at present.

On-forum altcoin giveaways in connection with incentivized posting is against the rules. There isn't a big difference between an airdrop and a giveaway if both of them include a requirement to make post on the forum with your account address. You aren't allowed to do that.

Bitcoin giveaways are allowed. Off-forum altcoin giveaways/airdrops are also allowed as long as they don't generate any spam on the forum. The person giving away the coins/tokens can announce their intentions and request the forum members to sign up on a Google sheet, for example. That's allowed. They can also redirect users to a 3rd party website where the giveaway will be hosted.

...I really appreciate your help. Thanks in advance

I understand that the main reason for participating in bounties and airdrops is the lack of initial capital for trading and investment. But even this should not be the reason that you will waste your time on this useless activity. Focus your efforts on the execution of testnet tasks, this is exactly what will allow you to get a good profit in the future.

[Dhrugtest]

Well i feel discourage when i saw many Post of many guys here that airdrop and Bounties are 98% scam which have been doing the airdrop since 2019 which someone motivate on it that he get an airdrop called hydro💧 worth $3500 which make the guy rich by now doing some legit business on his own, have started then till now all token I got from airdrop worthing more than $50 which most of my telegram group are full I have to leave some to join new one's 😭 What can i do guys to earn from this Bitcointalk forum. 🙏

I have been doing bounties and Airdrops back in 2017 but I think I was too late to enter them since once I started doing them, the Crypto market collapsed unfortunately. Yes Nothing worked in my way. But I would like to give it a try again. but I have heard,not like back in 2017 now most of bounties are scams. Is it true? 

Yes, it is but there is still genuine bounty though. I believe the problem is from the bounty manager and participant because they didn't do the needed research about the project before working for them.
With the traffic the crypto market gained from the year 2017, the same thing will continue to happen until bounty managers do the needful or escrow the bounty allocation fund and pay in BTC or reputable altcoin.

So Is It useless to follow bounties further more?

No, it is not if you know how to spot a good bounty but the best bet is you grow your account to the full member stage and join BTC paying signature campaign.

and Now I can't remember which sections on this forum publish bounties and air drops. So please educate me about places that I can grab them in this forum and out side as well. I really appreciate your help. Thanks in advance

Here is the bounty campaign list link.

It is always the reason some people involve in bounty hunting. But some users have seen it as a way of life, even after raising some capital for trading and investment, theh keep doing the hunting. It can be said that it is their major source of income.
While some novice like me in that area might think nothing good comes easily from.there, it is well to note that those that have been there for long time must have mastered how to make big gains with little efforts.
If the bounty does not worth it, why do we have more and more people tripping in there?

2016-2017 was the prime time of bounties and airdrops, that was also the time of ICO projects. Quite to say they are more reliable that these new sets of projects like Metaverses and NFTs, plus DeFI and many others.

It was really to remember those days, it is totally different from what I have experienced this time from the bounties and airdrops as most of them are useless and added no value to the market. I'd found this as a big concern since many people had fallen into such broken promises.
