Does Bounty really pay?

[BitcoinPanther]

Sometimes I find myself being added to Telegram groups where they are doing bounty campaigns for new coins but at the end of the day, people will start complaining that the project is dead. In most cases I exited from the groups immediately I find myself there because I feel they are prone to defrauding people.
This makes me to wonder if bounties really pay.

Bounties really pay unless you work under a fraudulent projects that aim to scam their investors and advertisers.  As a matter of fact, there is a history of bounty paying huge amount of money to the point of it being a life changer.

Most of the bounties pay with their token.  Many of these bounties delivers but the main problem is not whether they pay or not but the issue of the token having value.  I experienced getting paid with millions to billions of token but worthless because they don't have value.

Most of the bounties pay, but the problem is whether the rewards have got value or not. These days most of the bounties received simply sit idle on the wallet as tokens without value. This is the scenario, very few bounties have got value. It is good to focus on airdrops that are being done by much expected projects. Here the competence used to be high and the luckiest used to enjoy the best out of it.

Sure bounties still pay, Bounty Detective is one good manager out there that I'm aware of. Please how do I send you a message?

By saying really pays, yes it does but it's not always the case from the testimonies of others I have heard from that have participated in bounties, even when they get paid they mostly get short paid with after a long wait.
For me bounty it's a pure waste of time for anyone that wants to grow themselves resourcefully here in the forum. But it all depends on what you seek anyway!

such kind of groups are a waste of time or just place where you can be scammed.

the various bounties and similar promotions paid off initially (example year 2017 during the ICO boom).
Now only the worst aspect is left, that is "spam" on the net and a practically negligible gain.
I think very few are profitable at all... I stopped following them for many years now...

What I have seen is that those who are getting paid by bounty may not be able to sell the tokens. If they are able to sell, they are not getting the correct price from the tokens.  Most of the time, bounty hunters are the seekers of scams. However, the situation of Markorket is not very good now, so this is happening. If the situation of Markorket is correct, then everyone will get a good amount of payment from the bounty.

There were many bounty opportunities through bitcointalk, telegram and twitter I observed in many years. Some of them really pays well. Sometimes you read a whitepaper of one altcoin project and write some article about it and they pay you some return. I remember that I could sell those altcoins for like 50 dollars, 100 dollars sometimes. But overtime obviously not in a day... More like months later. Many people remember deeponion project.
Also obvious one: there are many scammers around. Please be cautious.

It used to pay well back in those days, I mean a good percentage of them. But nowadays its hard to get one that even pays more than a hundred dollars, maybe its because of current marker trends. I don't know

It is because project dont use forum bounties (like we have used to) for promotion anymore. Instead they use platforms like https://gleam.io/ or https://galxe.com/ for promotional campaigns. As well as promotional budgets became extremely low. We had millions of project tokens budgets, now we have $1-10k worth budgets in project tokens only. Bounty results have nothing to do with market trends. During bear market or the quarter when ATH were reached, campaigns still have same small budgets. The only difference in trends is that we have increased amount of scam projects during bull, and average high number of scams during bear.

Bounties are not what they used to be so anyone thinking about starting their journey should probably think about it again as bounty hunting went from something some people did in order to support their favorite project and earn come coins out of it, to something people did just for the sake of the money, and this means that just as there are a lot of scammer releasing their own coins there are also many bounty hunters using bots to automate their task and claim from as many bounties as possible, and a regular person cannot compete against that.

Yes, some pay and some don't, so you have to do a lot of research to find out which projects are reliable.

In general, Telegram channels are full of scams and trolls, so you should be careful and it is better to stay away from them.

There are a lot of reliable bounty here in the bounty section of the forum, they always pay out. This is better than telegram channels which have a lot of spam.

I think you are talking about giveaways or airdrop which has same work like bounty and these Airdrops are managed in telegram group. 90% of telegram Airdrop for new coins prove scam. reason behind scamming is failing of project or they just want to just collect fund through ICO and there has no real project.

This makes me to wonder if bounties really pay.

if we talk about Bitcointalk bounty then i will say yes most of bounties is still paying. some bounties are fully guaranteed like escrowed by Reputed members(Bounty detective, Royse, Julerz, Hhumpuz,CryptopreneurBrainboss) while some bounties depends upon project team. Reward are also good and depends upon number of compaign you participated, allocation, number of users. in 2022 more than 60% bounty has been paid successfully.

Some Bounties pay more than others. Also some bounty managers are more honest than others. So you have to choose which one to work on

Some pays shitcoins and still useless.

I have no trust in telegram because we are not sure who is talking to us either a scammer or the real owner of the account. This platform become a medium to huge scam event in the market. If we are joining bounties, we better not expect a lot nor expect money because it was very unfortunate and seems hopeless to get valuable coins that we can able to sell in good exchanges.

At one time they paid more than what a signature campaign paying bitcoin would but things have changed now. Because some exploitative users understood thing, they farmed multiple accounts and defrauded these campaigns which led to a lot of problems for the projects. Eventually the companies that continued doing bounties for promotions were the scum ones. Hence the bounties section is today filled with scum projects and their low quality user base.

I dont think the situation would improve in the next few years, it is better to keep yourself limited to bitcoin paying campaigns.

Its more like 99.99% projects being scam. So go for the needle in the haystack or get yourself a job.

Doesn't this increase the danger of the situation? Currently, many bounty managers do not consider the projects they work on. Additionally, there are no filtering teams for each project on the Bounties (Altcoin) Child board, except for moderators.

As of now, the board is still filled with 90% of people who are solely focused on instant financial gain, without considering the consequences of their actions, even though they provide a disclaimer regarding investment activities at the end of their content.

Seems not worth when joining with several altcoin bounties campaign because when distribution started have small reward and ever I saw with spreadsheet reward table for social media campaign participants reward under $1, I don't think good ideas spent more than one until two months joining with several altcoin bounties campaign and the end reward under $1.

Better looking bounties campaign with higher reward above $20,000 and payment sent as soon possible before price drop, need finding with trust Bounty Manager if want distribution on time.

until now some bounties seem to be still paying. I follow several telegram groups from bounty managers who do have a good reputation on the forums.
but what you should know about the bounty campaign if you are interested. some of them pay. and some are bullshit.
I can't force you to stay away from bounty campaigns, but my hopes are for you. just focus on the forum first. when you are trapped in a bounty routine, it will be difficult for you to develop yourself. especially to increase your account. although I'm not sure you want to increase your rank in the future.

And to choose one, you need to check all of them that you are interested in. Because if you don't, you'll have a hard time determining which is likely to pay.
Yes, only "likely" to pay because you'll never know if you've chosen a bounty that will pay you after they run their marketing. Because all of them are also too heavily influenced by their success.

Very rare to find a bounty that pays today. Stay here in the forum and join the bounties of reputable managers and you might have a better chance to claim a bounty. I forgot when was the last time I joined one because most of the time in the past they are not paying or if they do, it will take a lot of time before the payment initiates or is completed (if they are paying in an installment plan).
Don't expect too much if you are still joining them, that should be the mindset.
Don't waste more effort if you found out they will not pay in the future. Get over it and join another.
Don't get attached to the project, this is where you will get rekt. Trust me, I have been there.
