I participated in many bounty campaigns in 2018
maybe 200+ projects I participate, and I work honestly and professionally. but until now I have only received a few rewards, and many project managers do not send payments whether what happens, whether because of the low rank /or the reason is forgotten,

This is completely normal in the crypto market in 2018.
At that point the market plunged and the majority of new projects failed to appeal to investors, when projects failed they would not pay the bounty hunters.

What can you do if they wont tend to pay up those advertisers? None.

This is really a problem for bounty hunters, no one will protect them from scammers.
If you want to take part in the bounty I think everyone should investigate carefully about that bounty program. Participating in campaigns run by reputable bounty managers is another way to avoid scams.

Most of those project back then really suffered as the market condition is not good.

For several reasons they unable to pay their hunters and the project totally scammed and runaway. You'll be lucky if some cameback
and pay you the rewards then continue the development, there's still chances that you'll be able to get a good amount of compensations.

You are not alone, most bounty hunters receive nothing in 2018.
The year 2018 was so bad that many bounty hunters had to leave their jobs in search of something better, and those remaining in bounty hunters were struggling a lot.

Lots of crypto hunters come across the same situation as you, working hard to promote the project but ultimately getting nothing.
The only thing bounty hunters can do is research the project carefully before joining, this way they avoid the scammers.

That's the saddest part as a bounty hunter your chances of getting a profit for your investment is always at 50% stake. Welp, I guess they were hoping that the good old days would still continue these days but sadly, those are long gone. Investors now learned their mistakes from the past and is slowly moving on to the hyped one instead of an unknown projects because investors wouldn't put money on it unless it's something that they could make some profit.

And up to this day, I think a lot of them are thinking that by being a bounty hunter you could get rich quick but most of them didn't know the truth and struggle they have to suffer first before getting to what they think would bring them fortune.

Gone are the days where most of projects do really pays off on that year 2017 and after that sudden crash in 2018 then the market starts to shift into the other side where projects do still
continue to launch up in spite of the situation but still ending up on not to get sufficient funding because investors had already lost up their confidence on supporting a particular project
even though there are project who get some funding or simply succeed on getting the minimum cap but still ending up on not paying the bounty hunters.

What can you do if they wont tend to pay up those advertisers? None.

This had been a common problem in ages where its part of being a bounty hunter on experiencing these kind of things for them to waste up all of their efforts and time on making exposure
on a particular project but ending up on getting nothing because they havent been paid up.Therefore, the best solution to this if you dont like to experience then better to
do your assignment on finding the best project as possible as you can.

In my own interpretation why many bounty campaign not pay for their bounty participants because they didn't already met their goals so that they not able to pay for their bounty, because of that, I choose to join signature campaign with escrowed and trusted manager who paying their participants weekly.

That is a good thing because most bounties have been a waste of time and money. For the hunter the only thing that matters is the payment and that is a narrow minded thought even though they are actually doing it for the money. So if they dont get paid they will blame the manager, the team and so on.

Again bounty payment are not salaries - they are a prize for the participation and thus most managers nowadays have a disclaimer about this so that they are not held responsible for the non-payment. In my opinion the bounty scene is messed up. Either you go for the signature campaigns set up by well known managers or dont participate at all.

I have not participated in the bounty campaign for a long time, because of my hard work I feel unappreciated, can I claim a bounty reward that has been going on for a long time, because now I really need these rewards with value in exchange.

My rank in this forum is newbe, but I have registered in this forum for a very long time, maybe if I could make a useful article I could have a high rank.

Just what you have experience, I encountered the same situation, joning some bounty signature campaign but haven't received my payment until now, then I choose to dont mind all those bounty projects and keep in my mind that those projects are not successful that why they didn't send payment for their bounty participants.

In my own interpretation why many bounty campaign not pay for their bounty participants because they didn't already met their goals so that they not able to pay for their bounty, because of that, I choose to join signature campaign with escrowed and trusted manager who paying their participants weekly.

wanna show my respect to you , a Bounty hunter that had Joined more than 200 projects is an achievements and if you only participated back in 2016 or 2015 ? you must be a Millionaire by now.

You may be surprised that bounty hunters are the most poorest investors in the crypto space, Lol, there are various project that failed during the 2017 till now, bounty hunters aren't not profiting from doing bounty, rather they are given peanuts for their hard work, I was a bounty Hunter that had up to 250 tokens in my wallet, till today only one coin I could witness about that I withdrew.

Various project turns scam specially if you are dealing with tokens created last 2018 and I call it a year of shitcoins since almost all of the project are not paying their hunters a good pile of cash compare before. But don't lose hope since I see that bounty campaign are doing good since there are several people who earn at Defi and BSC craze right now. Also don't call the bounty hunter the poorest since that's not good word to call since time and efforts is a big contribution and investment for the project they promoted.

In fact, we will always go through times of difficulty and glory, well in 2018 many people are frustrated that they lose a lot of money, either from being subjected to fraud or decreasing trade because at that time the price of bitcoin has reached the lowest.
We used to be bounty hunters who always tasted bitter and sweet, even now we will continue to go through it together in this forum, with the advent of the defi and bsc trend which is getting more success, here we will know how to take advantage of the opportunities and the results of the bounty. .

They didnt start out as investors though. Rather as collectors of coins that they supposed were to become second to bitcoin. In reality they wasted their time and effort in promoting projects that were either failures of scams or cashgrabs.

Many of the hunters from that time have had ethereum wallets filled with tokens that one cannot keep track of anymore. Huge quality but low quality is what happened to the market of new altcoins.

DeFi came before that but became popular much later even then that also followed a similar demise. Too many projects but zero value in any of them.

About 95% of the campaigns that took place in 2018 and 2019 did not pay. Because most of the projects failed then. Payment for low rank is never withheld. You can now participate in the bounty if you want. Because now the amount of scam bounty is comparatively a little less. Now some campaigns have got good payments like YOUC, DEGO, AME, CLVA, STC etc.

Many have suggested things like this but still some managers don't implement a system like this so I think they will only wait for the end of the sale when the success is distributed to the hunters so I guess it won't be on time until whenever even though the plan has been set beforehand.

Now the problem is when the hunters take so long even though the tokens can be traded, but this problem is difficult to solve and the team or trying to run away with subtle words, so we will not be fully that the bounty will be paid on time.

There is no guarantee in participating in bounties but there are things that you can follow so that your chance of receiving your bounty payments will be high.

: Follow bounty managers that know how to choose a good project
: Escrow the bounty payments
: Payments are in popular Coins/Tokens

I rarely seen the bounty managers who have been escrowing the funds and this time BD is the only manager that is doing it.
As far as i know you can't peg with analization that already made by the manager consider sometime it can be wrong as well.

Only a few campaigns that were accepting the native coins to be used as a payment to the hunters and i rarely seen this too.

Last night I received a reward from Ubex. it has been more than two years but the ubex team was very generous in giving the reward. I believe UBEX will get great success now and in the future, because it has a good Kindly and professional team. I'm waiting for UBEX to be listed on the Binance exchange. Thanks UBEX

Currently still making claims on Verasity , MetaHash and more
because I have a lot of coins that I haven't received. ( may be a little difficult to get)

Until now I never sold coins that I received in the 2018 bounty campaign, because I believe with a little patience it will make I'm Rich.

Good luck with your plan. Maybe you haven't found your fortune in bounty hunting because it isn't really a thing that you should rely on but just for spending free time.
I've seen stories that made them fortunate by having an unexpected surge with the altcoins that they've held through the bounty rewards that they have received. I wish that you'll be having to enjoy the profit that you'll take there someday.

People need to stop joining projects blindly without proper investigation on the project first,

The majority of hunters prefer to join in the project based on the quantity instead of quality and this will be a very difficult thing to be solved. Even when you were creating thousands of awareness and so many social media hunters were always blindly joining in the campaign. We have discussed this so many times and there have been lots of awareness thread but that's useless.

^ Definitely right, they are looking after the allocation reward but not on the legitimacy of the project, this is very common on every bounty hunter and we have all experienced that problem here. I think not only us as bounty hunters did not get profit, but also managers that paid token are probably a victim. I consider that joining bounty or as bounty participants, it seems like playing gambling and it matters based on luck. Once you are lucky and the project that you promote listed on a big exchange, you are very lucky to get your profit but if not, let's accept the fact.

Dont hope too much because not all of those hopes or wishes could really come true.Imagine 2 years time before they pay isnt really something that you should brag on but at least
they do really pay at the end up of the line but waiting for 2 years? I would consider it to be dead or had been forgotten and consider yourself lucky to receive those which is really
vary unusual but not impossible.If i were you then if you do find out that those coins does have value then better to sell off those coins while its still early because you might
really be missing out that particular chance since not all would really have that situation on pumping out just like into those good projects but if you can risk up on
holding it than on selling it right away then its your choice.
