None. All these are not ways to make money, but a waste of time. Uniswap airdrop is rather an exception to the rule, there are very few such airdrop and they are not for everyone. If we talk about making money on cryptocurrencies, these are sales on lunchpads or testnets. But only those testnets, which have to involve real money, only they can give something in the future, all these free testnetes, where you just perform tasks, out of 100 can give something maximum 1-2, so this is also a waste of time. Almost always any action in cryptocurrency, where there is no initial investment, it is difficult to call earnings, rather just a waste of time and pampering.

participate in airdrops or bounties don't ever expect a lot of money because it's not 2017, participating in both in my opinion is just filling your free time so if you have enough time then do both, who knows luck will be in one of them

[uneng]

I've never effectively joined airdrops and bounty programs because they are confusing to participate and understand. You don't know how much you are going to be paid, you don't know if your work is being counted by the manager, you don't know if the project is going to make it all the way until the launchment, you don't know if the token is going to be listed on exchanges. There are no guarantees and that is terrible, since employees don't have any stability when performing tasks.

After ICOs hype has started, it has become extremely difficult to find worthful earning opportunites to collect cryptocurrency from zero. The ones promoted nowadays, like Coinbase and Coinmarketcap "earn cryptocurrency while learning" features, are extremely scarce and limited. Another alternative is to join a micro tasks platform, like Pico Workers, and cashout BTC, although executable offers are also scarce and there are a lot of cheater users using multi accounts who fastly drain the tasks.

Airdrop are a good way to make money, but airdrop events have evolved from what we know from days back. Now you have to "invest" by joining retroactive airdrops where you get to use layer 2 platforms, buy and stake certain tokens to be eligible for retroactive airdrops, example of such are OP tokens (optimism), Hop Exchange tokens, and lots more. For Staking segment you have the several airdrop received by users who staked Atom, Osmosis, Juno and so on.

To earn from airdrop, these are kinds of airdrops you should look forward to

Profit there are unstable and if you've made so much there then that's good for you. I rarely see people nowadays that have been telling that they're making well off from these two. Usually, in bounties they've got a higher chance of success than airdrops. Gone are the days when most airdrops have been making decent money after the launch of their projects but today, if you're lucky that have chosen a project then that's on you and you can literally say that it's profitable because you're the one that have chosen that airdrops. Bounties and airdrops are just incentives so any of them you pursue, just make yourself aware that they're not stable.

I myself feel confused about how to make more money through the Airdrop route, while we can participate with one account. Maybe some use two or three, but that's also not optimal. For me, bounties are more profitable than Airdrops. We will get a big profit if we hold the coins for some time after the distribution is done. If the price of the coin has increased, then we can sell it. Or by trading with the coins we get. In general, after the distribution is done, the price will drop for a while, so we can buy to increase the number of coins.

I found one airdrop for the role in discord, the name of the project is reptile chronicles, maybe you know some fitches how to get that role

[Asiska02]

You never can tell which can be more profitable. Participating in any of them is not a guarantee to make huge profit. These stuffs don’t really pay like before, they’re most scams this days in them and the ones you’re lucky with might fetch you little or no profit. But luck still exist as you can still give them a trial if you still want to.

If you managed to earn more money from Airdrops than from Bounty, you are probably choosing your campaigns wrong. Airdrops are usually dust that is given away almost for free, and owners aren't interested in long-term growth at all. When it comes to Bounty Campaigns, it's also not easy to find an honest project, but if you do find one, I'm sure you'll earn more in the long term than with Airdrop.

Gone are the days where you earn alot with airdrops and bounty program .Now you can only earn a little no matter how hard you work in any bounty unlike before where you can easily earn hundreds of dollars from a single bounty airdrops on the other hand are even the worst nowadays most of them are scams and if paid it is usually too little to benefit you in any way.

If you got lucky with those airdrop you can have more money and if you reinvest your reward with Uniswap, most probably you can earn more. Bounties and airdrop are still active right now, we’ve seen a lot of good projects hosting bounty and they are really paying good money to the participants. I believe you can still make money here, you just need to be active and choose the good project to work with.

It really depends. You should always do a minimum amount of research before you invest your precious life's time on some project. A lot of people think they are getting it tokens for free just because they do not have to invest money.

At the end 9/10 projects never even make it and the tokens stay worthless.

But I have earned a decent amount for translation bounty jobs, for example. I had to research the project and if it was worth wasting time on. But really? In reality you still make more or less the same amount of money you would have if it was the same job but paid in fiat or Bitcoin.

I got tired after a while and stopped. Its easier taking jobs where you get paid money, not something that MIGHT become money.

Can you make more money participating in bounties or airdrops?

In 2022? I doubt.
But In 2017 during the ICO hype, the bounty and airdrop business was so Lucrative. One could easily make more than $4,000 from a bouty if the token price pumped well once it was listed in an exchange

There is nothing like free crypto bro. Even the airdrops you do take your time and personal data which is valuable

A direct answer is NO. They are apparently unreliable way of earning, they have been ignored by many people knowing that they are useless, majority of these airdrops have small market value or even totally nothing. But, if you want to have some collection of them, wasting your time, this is the thing we do.

But I guess, you don't but I think you also have to try just to prove by yourself and of course, for you to know the sentiment of the participants complaining about unpaid airdrops.

Airdrop was just pure luck and there's no ETA when the next legit airdrop like uniswap will be coming again. My first time to see that candlelabs bounty. I see that if you were also creating an announcement on the bounty thread as well but for me it's not worth to participate.
Just try to do all of things that you think that can give you money.

Signature campaings are another alternative to think about (providing you reach the required rank ),However i like to consider them all as side hustles and not full time jobs i mean couple dollars here and there cant possibly meet all your needs unless if you live in a 3rd world country about to have an economical crisis.

[X-ray]

Is not it better if you are trying to visit the bounty section directly? you can know how much people received from doing the bounty task. I meant you shall see various spreadssheet that already published by legit bounty management. I think that you can even calculate how much people received when they were participating in the bounty campaign. Some legit campaigns were paying the token holders a lot. This proves that if the bounty campaign is worthy rather than airdrop.
Bounty better than airdrop

Not all bounties are giving profit to everyone here, though I cannot deny there are some bounty are giving payment in altcoins, and some are via bitcoin payment. And for airdrops, I am not sure about this if we can still get a giveaways for this one. Just be wise in choosing the new bounty campaign here in the forum. It maybe a waste of time to others but for bounties are not a waste of time especially if you know how to determine the legit one new projects.

You never can tell which can be more profitable. Participating in any of them is not a guarantee to make huge profit. These stuffs don’t really pay like before, they’re most scams this days in them and the ones you’re lucky with might fetch you little or no profit. But luck still exist as you can still give them a trial if you still want to.

Correct, this is unprediactable, none of us can say if it is profitable or not, unless if the new projects showings some development to their
program while it is running and building a nice community. Though, in every participation of the projects there is still risk in it. Because, for me
bounties and airdrops are both opportunity here in the forum.
