Currently there are many bounty hunters who only use a Newbie account. Which means they have created a new account, maybe not just one.
Lots of people who have multiple accounts.
better in the future, allowed to join the Bounty is a minimum Jr.Member account.

I also often find people who intentionally use my account username to follow the bounty.

These arent bounty hunters doing this.... The organized scam groups are making newbie accounts to spam post bounties articles to hide their tracks as the move on to new bounties. But there is high level software out there that can crawl BCT, BTc/Eth addresses, and online bounty sheets to reveal a link to accounts that the scam tokens are cashed out from.

Bounty hunters have become so useless that they now offer an ICO nothing. All their Facebook friends, Twitter followers, YouTube subscribers, whatever -- its all fake numbers and they always do the bare minimum to promote an ICO. Even ranks on this forum are faked. Merits are bought and sold, accounts can be farmed, purchased, for absolutely no purpose other than to spam this forum with useless information.

And what kind of traffic do they end up driving to an ICO website? Almost nothing. Most bounty campaigns literally have more participants than they will ever receive hits to their website, meaning the average traffic driven to a website by today's bounty hunter is less than 1 visit per month. Again, its because of all the fudged numbers. Everything is faked, nothing is real. There is no quality control whatsoever.

I really don't understand why anybody does social media bounty campaigns any more. Translations, graphic designers, website builders, app developers -- those are the real bounty hunters. Social media bounty hunters are just scum sucking parasites. They root through garbage trying to collect digital specs of nothing, leaving a trail of trash behind them.

Nobody wants to learn a thing about anything -- they just want "free money" as easily as possible, which usually ends up being worthless anyway. Would most of you just be sitting around doing nothing if you didn't consider this to be a means of "employment"? My guess is the answer is "yes." Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

Also as you said in your post, the Translators, graphic designers, website builders, app developers are....actually....the ones how have formed organized groups and scamming bounties. Using their technical knowledge to loop bots to spam airdrops for 10's of thousand of airdrop tokens!! Sound like you understand what I mean...

This is so untrue. What is happening is organized groups are putting hundreds of fake accounts/bot in the bounty to steal 100's of thousand of dollars. When real bounty hunter who make good content see all the fake accounts they don't join, so project are stuck with fake accounts that just spam posting low quality information...They translate BS articles in 10 languages by google translate and post under fake account. This is because the bounty companys out there are too lazy to check carefully.

Well, how to tell you. This is true, but for such campgain as twitter, facebook, bountyhunters get very little money and basically everyone participates in these camgains. Good money get those who do quality work. For example, a good article, a signature, is now very much appreciated Reddit and Linkedin. It may seem strange, but most bountyhunters are also investors. therefore, joining the bounty, some also participate in the ICO. So I don’t think you’re right to the end.

Yeah, okay but is it even profitable to do multiply accounts and use them for bounty hunting? Not many tokens are worth at least 'something' to say it is worth to take risk in doing that.

I completely agree with you. We need Bounty only for hype, that's all! It doesn't attract any real investors at all, and it's a pity! Indeed, Bounty is not as good way of earning as it was at the beginning of this year!

95% is only true to those who didn't hold and found out the price rise up while they have sold their tokens at loss,.

I merely understand this case, honestly due to greed and others, many bounty hunters creates fake social media accounts in order to gain more stakes and others, are they not contented of their stakes from other campaigns they joined? But, not all, there are still honest bounty hunters doing social media, like me, check my facebook account used for bounty, its real and most of my friends are irritated because i spam the post.

That might change now that a newbie has to earn merit or buy copper membership before they can join a campaign. Its not a walk in park this time, they'd have to at least learn blockchain now other wise they won't have anything to write in the forum to participate a discussion. Soon theymos might change the rules to make it more than 1 merit to be a Jr. that would be to end a game.

You cannot blame these ICO they want buzz and they want social media to get a buzz on their coming project, because they want awareness and it will contribute to the success of the project, and so they think it is, so social campaign are here to stay as long as there are ICO to promote.

The whole system should be filtered starting from team to hunters do you think many team with bad intension mind what qualify of bounty hunters they use in prompting their ico, how good a project will determine how hunters will present them to prospective investors.

Although this is the case, I think it is not only because of the greed of the bounty hunter, but because the project side favors such a cheap promotion method, knowing that it is the cheapest to use the bounty campaign for promotion on BTT.

I think bounty hunters also give a big part in the community that is why ICOs hire them for promotions. There are also a lot of bounty hunters that started from scratch and are now also investors in coins, because they are the first to learn about it during application. Ie personally known some people, mostly my friends that have stopped participating in bounties already, and focused on investing.

You got a point. Many people are flooding here and are full time in bounty hunters. Spamming the threads and telegram groups with multiple accounts. But we could not do anything about it.

If is difficult to say with such confidence about 95 % bounties I know some people during last year's cryptohype had made some good money from different bounties selling tokens in proper moments,I know a guy who made a couple of thousands dollars even from airdrop ! So you never know ,it is all about your luck.

There is no hard and fast rule to the success and growth of ICO campaign, the unique and quality proposition is welcome and sometimes gather interest more than what was envisaged! Bounty has influence in this regard and bounty that is target toward btt and other cryptocurrency community apart from social media do have huge impact on the outcome of good ICO!

I can not agree with the statement that every bounty hunter is useless - for example Telegram chats and signature campaign... You know nowadays taking into consideration the amount of participants it is really harder to get the content of good quality from the participants, because they are oriented moctly on the quantity and rapid income. But the managers made the rules of participation more strict, and some of the managers limited the amount of participants as well. So not everything is so sad)))))

95% is too big a figure, you exaggerated very much! I'm sure that's a very strong exaggeration. Yes, social security companies are now meaningless by and large. But still there are good bounty. Just too many members so the payments are small. And projects the normal.

Of course not,I personally did the bounty in the 17 years before the recession and after the recession,Yes, of course I can tell more of a matter of companies that do not pay and doesn't,or just don't collect money during ISO,but thus all the same token people do not get who advertised,so it's not that a lot of the SCAM emerged,and the market has become!
