Topic: Airdrop or Bounty - page 2. (Read 371 times)

yes that's absolutely right, it doesn't have to be a bounty hunter or airdrop hunter because their heyday is long gone, but we can invest some% of our income in order to increase the USD coffers.

I consider them both a waste of time now. Bounty and Airdrop's hype has now gone.

Unlesss you want to take the risks and understand that your effort might go to waste then it's your choice if you still want to participate. There are maybe a few good remains but I don't want you to end up wasting lots of time before finding a good one.

As for me, it's better to find an alternative to save time. Try to find day jobs or any source of income outside crypto then allocate some to purchase crypto especially bitcoin. Slowly but surely you can save more as your progress.

If you are willing to collect a substantial value of coins with Airdrops / Bounties, that's very difficult and you need to research a lot (and of course to be lucky, quite often good research is not enough)  
The chance is very high that the failure of such campaigns will discourage people doing it (at least that's my impression).

Unfortunately, the quality of Bounties / Airdrops has decreased a lot. The downfall of ICO business is part of the problem, when I'm scrolling through the Bounty section I don't see any project where I would consider an investment. Most of them are blatant scams, some projects have (maybe) a good intention but a clueless and inexperienced dev team and the last group of them are planning a business model we have seen 100 times before. Such projects won't get anywhere... only away with investor's money  
I did a few social media bounties in 2018 but none of them was reasonably profitable.
However, I can't agree that all Airdrops are scam, IF you dig deep, the hard research might be rewarded, like the legit and profitable Airdrop from Keybase. And yes, such Airdrops don't appear every day. If I could vote for something I would vote to get more Airdrops like that in crypto space. Airdrops are very effective to distribute coins in a decentralized way and if it's not a shitcoin, most holders won't dump. The problem of Airdrop dumping is not the Airdrop, it's poor quality of the coin. Almost nobody will hodl a crap coin (they will try to sell it ASAP to get out) but many will hodl a good coin.

I'm still positive that some of the better projects launching in 2020 will start something similar. Or start a good bounty here because it would be easy for them to stand out from the crowd of shit- and scam projects. But then, the project has to offer something new - not just empty promises.  

So - not all Airdrops / Bounties are bad, there are still good ones - but very hard to find.  

If you want quick money with minimal work. Go for airdrop. If you want larger reward. Then go for bounty programs. I joined a lot of airdrops before and I find it boring and cheap since you're only going to earn fixed prize of the airdrop. So I joined bounties because it's gonna give decent reward. But it's risky tho. A lot of bounties are not so sure about the success of their crowdfunding. You can't get decent reward or sometimes not get anything at all. So you have to be aware a bout the project. Thorough study of the project will give you some insights about the success of the project.

Between the two, maybe airdrops.

In an airdrop, you are only required to do a/some task/s one time, then wait for distribution.
In a bounty, you are asked to do tasks that would run for weeks, months, or even a year.

In case the project pulls something at the end of the campaign (prior to token distribution) like KYC, airdrop hunters wouldn't feel that bad if they do not want to comply. Legit bounty hunters who does not want to comply with the new requirements on the other hand would feel more cheated since they promoted the project for a longer time

I am pretty sure that what he meant was bounty. Well, with the level that you have, you obviously can't follow the signature campaign, but you can provide support from social media, I'm pretty sure it doesn't need creativity so much. besides, if you have a talent for writing, you can take part in bounty content creation, and you can even make videos about a project.

it takes hard work to achieve it all. Well, nothing is easy in achieving what you want to do.

First of all, let's go straight by mentioning about value of tokens you will receive from bounties/ airdrops. In my opinion, and I could be wrong, such tokens are worthless. Maybe someone argues that if people are lucky enough to join one bounty/ airdrop that pays in a token which will have price rocket weeks after company pays for all eligible participants. They, participants, will get a kind of 'fortune'. I want to emphasize that such lucky chances are very low.

Secondly, joining bounties/ airdrops will take lots of your time as well as inestimable risks of not being paid by companies. Participants might do have to join and keep wearing signature for months, then companies announce their ICOs, IEOs, whatever kind of funding-raising methods they used, end with failures. Then they reject to pay any bucks for participants.

Generally, I totally agree that spending time on bounties, airdrops are unnecessary and time-wasting.

I think you have to be creative / productive in creating something whether it's art, video, vlogs etc., maybe at the bounty you can get usd for free by following a campaign and there are tasks to do.
for the airdrop, in my opinion is also useful, as long as you can choose a good airdrop, because many airdrops are useless now.

Neither. The only thing that's going to be worth doing is signature campaigns in my opinion. It's the one that mostly pays decently, and is pretty much almost the closest thing to "free money", assuming you're going to read and post on Bitcointalk in the first place.

Airdrops and most bounty campaigns though? I personally think they're a waste of time. I'd rather do gigs online instead.

i think creativity is more than valuable from high knowledge. because knowledge is above the name, you can learn, read, study what you want to learn or expertice but the creativity is a gift from GOD. i can never draw something on paper or any graphic interface. maybe it should be learn some drawing technic by education but anyway its in your inside power.
btw, i never see similar activity on this forum. its a special event for 10th anniversary.
the other point, airdrops are worthless in these times. there is also another methods for earning similar as bounty programs for content writers, bug bounty programs for coders, translation bounties etc.

I would choose airdrop over the bounty. But good projects are very rare who is doing airdrop. last few years I joined airdrop for just 2 projects Dfinity & Polymath. You can work on bounties too. First research a good project with good potential in the market. then join their Signature & Translation campaign Also joining the telegram campaign is easy as well.

Though I personally think Bounty & airdrop both are a waste of time. The best way to earn bitcoin is by providing services. First, think about what you're good at, then come up with an idea then provide services & take payment in crypto.

Most airdrops are worthless, they are nothing. You can join bounties but don't expect high like receiving easy big money in short time cause its not gonna work like that. Just choose to support those projects which are legit and has potential to grow and develop. Well, if you think you have online skill/s you can offer your service though.

I think most of Airdrop is now cheating but not all but only a few are paying for Airdrop.

To join the bounty campaign there are several tasks that must be done

Signature
Social media
Blogging
Youtuber
Telegram
Translator

Now that you choose one of your skills that you can work on and do, don't forget before following the bounty, read the rules first because each bounty has different rules.

Study and invest instead. Stop wasting time in Airdrops/Bounties. It ain't the past anymore where you could earn a 100$ for sharing a tweet or something. You gotta invest time and actually think about what you want to do and progress there slowly. Plus, if you're talking about the art contest theymos has on going, It doesn't really need you to know much. Just make something using the theme of the forum itself or bitcoin itself and your fine to go. But after that, I'd advise to buckle up and start studying.

No need for high knowledge, just creativity.

What 'gifts' are you talking about? Do you mean the art contest?

99% of airdrop is worthless and even if they might worth something, you'll need to wait years probably. Get an online job, learn to code or start a Youtube/blogging channel and buy some bitcoins with your money. That's better than participating in countless airdrops.

I always wanted to dive into the world of prize hunters but my knowledge of gifts is not enough to enter the bitcointalk contest or do I have to play Airdrop? Because airdrop tasks are easier than gifts? please tell me friend
