Ways to earn aside from bounty campaign and airdrop

[blockman]

Testnet has been one of the best way to earn tokens for tasks performance and also one of the oldest form of earning. Most especially now that bounty hunting has been bastardized with low earning or not able to determine a project that will succeed at the end of a campaign or which one will eventually distribute the reward not fearing the hunters will dump the price.

Is it an old form of bounty? I don't think that it's one of the oldest because it's sort of new to the community and there's a big chunk that has been shared through this type of reward system.

Testnet rewards are always moderately better than bounty hunting with certainty of payment. And also, the testnet participants are always respected as they are trusted to help the project be at perfection before its launch.

It's like bounty, if the project becomes successful then there's a generous amount of share for the testnet participants. But if the project didn't received success, it's like the bounties that it won't have any value.

ever since Aptos soared giving out freebies to their testnet users and being listed on major exchange sites, testnet airdrop hunters started popping up again and creating a lot of spam also burdening every existing server, for example Shardeum doesn't work well also one other addition i.e. SUI is also overloaded spam on their discord because of yesterday's Aptos effect where almost every user earns thousands of dollars in short that's cool when the market is bearish and people are getting free money from Aptos

Before Aptos other projects did same and reward users. There is one I joined not too long ago (forget the name of the project) they reward all testnet users although the reward was not as big as Aptos. The point is, it is been going on for some time now probably Aptos seems to be the biggest reward of late. Plus it is not entirely free because you did some task to be rewarded.

We only got the rewards when tasks are completed, that was the common rule in participating test networks. But I don't think it was too hard not to complete it. I'm not sure what is the computation of rewards but likely it is shared with all participants the amount allocated for this. Of course, we never have to expect big rewards from this but at least, by simply doing a few tasks and without any amounts coming out of our pocket, I think it is worth spending our time, especially if we do nothing in our life.

the last time i got a big airdrop from uniswap and it needed capital to do a swap especially at that time the transaction fee was also quite large, i just saw a project like this that only tested with the tesnet network and then got hundreds or even thousands of dollars, it seems that i am easily interested, to participate and test the new project

Thanks for this update, some of the testnet network are always down, causing some level of frustration. I will appreciate if you have a link to some of the processes drop. Sui always a problem same with Shardaum.

...So are there any active testnets currently that seem promising?

...Is there any website that collects all the upcoming blockchain project and offer testnet with rewards? ..

I bring to your attention a blog that I myself use to perform tasks in the test network https://airdropclaimers.medium.com/ which publishes current tasks for the testnet and contains a guide for their implementation. I think that following the guide, you will be able to complete the tasks yourself, even if you have not done this before.

Thank you for sharing this mate. I thought it is yours. If only I have plenty of extra time I will be hunting for these kinds of tasks. Nonetheless, I will be following this page for future use and I will also share this with my friends that are not that busy with their lives. I'm really amazed at how many ways to earn here in crypto as long as someone is hard-working and most of these are free anyways. The Aptos rewards got me really curious about testnets which I just ignored before.

This is exactly what I was looking for!thank you.
it's very cool that you write along with pictures and step-by-step instructions, this will greatly simplify working with new projects.Today I will start testing platforms.

Hunters are trying to get the chance to join these testnets knowing that it became popular due to high rewards that participants received after completing the tasks. It's not bad to join these testnets and I'm happy that some of the testnet has an anti-abuse measure to avoid abusers. Though it is the same as airdrop, Not every project has a guaranteed reward and I'm sure that there would be a time that scammers will take advantage of this. I personally joined some of those testnet project on that list that has potential rewards, some of them are new to my eyes so thank you OP for this list.

Glad to help.

If you have the necessary skills to trade on decentralized exchanges, as well as experience with DeFi, then completing the tasks of the test network will not take you much time. If you do not have such skills, then you will quickly acquire them by completing several testnet tasks.

Scammers are always looking for loopholes to infiltrate and become what the victim wants, such as a tesnet that gets an airdrop incentive. A lot of new projects are popping up by doing their network tests and then paying early adopters pretty well. But it's not all, each project distributes aidrop in a different way. like the hype APTOS network and pay their early adopters with satisfactory results.

My favourite one is to find jobs that would be open to participation from everyone possible and only based on if you really work. Look at affiliate work in the crypto world, you will see that everyone is open to affiliates of course. Because, you are selling whatever they are offering, it could be a service, a software, a product, it could be anything.

It means if you do manage to get customers for that place, they will be willing to pay you. And that means you are going to end up with earning from many websites if you could build an affiliate network. This is just one example, find a job that is open to pay you as long as you work, and you will find work that you can earn money from without a limit.

Scammers have also evolved to adapt the latest crypto development trends to try to imitate potential projects such as how to distribute incentives from the apto project, btw if it is related to tesnet now hundreds of airdrops from other projects are promoting the same tesnet method, so when it is difficult to find tesnet from potential projects because of scammers also run tesnet on the same network chain, so be careful and prioritize project analysis before joining any tesnet.

Testnet isn't new. I've know about it since as far back as 2017. And I believe it has even been on before that since the beginning of token development on the ethereum network that allows it. And any project will want to test to make adjustments where necessary in other not to disappoint their users and investors. They can only make adjustment where necessary base on the feedbacks from the testnet participants.

You're right, I have remembered some projects of it in the past that were bounties like testnet but it wasn't that known back then. It's because everyone is for those marketing bounties and doesn't want to check into testnets. It makes sense why some of the successful projects now that have ran their testnets have some good offers to make from those participants that have helped them.

Not surprising actually which it is really somewhat anticipated if we do talk or speak about scammers or fraudsters who would really be going in line with those current trend or interest around.

If they do really find out that majority of projects (testnets) do really get significant interest and recognition then this is where they do really get in line.

If you are a bounty hunter then you would really be just basically be wasting up your time and effort on doing tasks which doesnt really give out
assurance that you would really be paid something good from it.

Sometimes joining them is a waste of time but at least we never spend money from joining them, we just lost our precious time. However, if we got too lucky, we also get rewards. Well, the truth is that scammers will make their way to be a part of this crypto development. Absolutely, their participation will somewhat ruin the reputation of crypto and could lose the trust of many investors. That is why we should be careful dealing with these testnet projects because some people will ask to deposit money before you will get the reward and that is what we called a scam.

Thanks for sharing the information, most times I come across on the testnet project where you're wallet will be connected to the site, which the private key has been link up, but I have the fear to connect my wallet because of scam project, not to loose the little I have, instead, I prefer buying when it comes to public sales.

You don't have to connect your main wallet to these testnets, they are testnets you can create a new wallet or if you have a disposable wallet, you can use that, never connect your wallet to a project that has not yet established its reputation and testnets are projects that you don't have to trust yet, I did testnet on two projects and use a new wallet and have no issue at all, but unfortunately not all testnets are promising.

when the incentive airdrop model such as doing tesnet has been misused by scammers, another airdrop model will appear again. Scammers continue to grow and we also as users must also develop and not lose to scammers. careful and always alert will be needed, analysis of each project in detail will help us to know which projects are really good and projects that will only become a trap.

Scammers is everywhere and yes we can not deny that nowadays there are a lot of scammers working hard and try  their best to scamm many people and for this topic I think this project what OP give us is needed to be search and investigate in order to know more about this project and thanks for the OP that he gave us hints in participating this project, and it's a good idea to use our dummy wallet to prevent loss in the near future,
