Bounty hunting seems dead in Bitcointalk. Are there members still making money via airdrops?

It's true, as you said, bounty hunters on bitcointalk have started to disappear one by one, many of the hunters no longer rely on bounties as a place to find prizes, including airdrops which often appear to be scams, airdrops are no longer worth it to get rewards. We can still see several projects that has quality outside other than participating in the airdrop.

Don't rely on bounties and airdrops for profit as it is still gray and unclear whether you will get tokens of value or not.
There are still many quality airdrops but don't expect instant gratification as there are long daily tasks to be done.

People are running more retroactively where they rely on capital to hunt for tokens on the projects they are participating in, even they have earned thousands of dollars from airdrops.

Many developers are now using the automation platform. It makes it much easier to manage their campaigns. This is why we rarely see bounties launched on Bitcointalk. The golden days of bounty in BTT has passed. It's time for us moving forward and accept the truth that if we must be also following the trend. Though a few would be worthy to participate, most bounties in BTT don't pay if the reward isn't escrowed. It's very rare to find a legit bounty on BTT. It drives people to use automation platform to participated in the bounty campaign.

They became harder to utilize for a common man, that's for sure, but the possibility to find a project worth the risk is still there Wink

Its just common sense but we do know that there are really some drops now that needing some liquidity or needing up some transactions on which you would really be needing to spend up some gas
and this is something that will really be that hindering you, whether you would really be that proceeding on taking such action on dealing up with that project or you would really skip out just because you cant afford or you are really just that skeptical when it comes on spending up some money even if it means that it would really be that a small amount of gas?
I could say that there are projects which are worth and i have made out some good money with that too but most of them are too long to launch on which it will really be that making you
forget that you have engaged on such project.

Totally! It's a common practice and back in the day projects were more generous so to speak to those who invested their money for swaps, gates, transactions, and stuff like that. If you believe in the project, its ideas, and the investments you may bring to it - you will do it, if not, that would be on your shoulders.

Despite of those conditions or big changes on which you would really be needing to have those kind of interactions then people would really be still loving on participating on it. Why?
They are really that indeed hoping that they could really be able to benefit from it or would really be that worthy on the amount that they have spent. We've seen several airdrops on which
having this kind of particular set up that they are really that requiring those kind of interactions on which we know that its costly but if the project is indeed good and having that potential
then you wont really be minding much about on the risks that it do has. The only important thing on here is that you do make use of the amount on which you can afford to lose.
People would really be having such kind of approach on things or a must thing to have.

If you are someone who doesnt been able to experience on making money with airdrops and bounties then you would really be definitely be saying this one. If there would really be no probability

we are really that still seeing those people who are really that interested on dealing up with airdrops but for me then it would really be somehting that be on selective manner specially if its something
which do really looks interesting and having some sort of hype.

We do still see several projects who do make out some good amount airdrops on which those people who are engaged or involved into it, did really make some nasty from free coins.
Somehow, we are seeing some bounty tasks nowadays needs up to spend some money specially on providing liquidity and transaction volume on which this is something
that very common into some projects.

The moment any project requests you to spend any dime on a bounty, stay away from them and run away, because they are not good at all and they are trying to scam you, nothing more than that.

I know that it may sound like we are talking about something that could be different, like how we are talking about something that would be a little tough for people to say no because it looks like free money is on the line and they are not even taking your money, they are just asking your to provide liquidity, so you may think "they aren't taking my money, I can take it out whenever I want" but in reality they will, they will take your money out and you should stay away from it as much as you can.

It's not. It's not worthwhile since then. You need to risk your time and efforts for you to get those bounties, at least 40/60 chance. 40% the chance the token will get value and listed on any exchanges, 60% the opposite, also will waste your time doing the works overtime

It's actually much more than just 60 to 40 chance, but, I agree that most of the times, efforts would go for 5-20$ of drop or, in worst case, for nothing.

The problem with some of those that have already made profits from either LP, airdrops or bounties, they are coming back. It's important to take the profits and never look back because based on experiences, you're just sending back your money to them and there's no more coming back. Most of the projects from these ways are likely to take back your money by the market itself and you will have hard time in recovering it. It's best to experience it or if not, learn from the experience of others and be wise with it.

The problem is that a lot of people just ignore all of that and keep doing whatever they want to do and that's an issue. I think it's quite clear that we are not going to make more money from a project after the release. You know those projects, like they make some money and they get out and that's it, just like a few month period from inception to release (listing usually) and that's about it, nothing more to them after that, they usually drop in volume a lot eventually and get delisted everywhere.

That's why if you ever make any money from any new airdrop, smart money would be just getting out and not getting back in at all, just keep it that way. I know that it is going to be tough and not going to help anyone, but that's not really something a lot of people do, so we should avoid that as well. I know that it is going to take a while, and I know that it won't be all that easy, because to see a "potential" in something makes you want to invest, but it is usually not a good move at all.

Avoid those, and keep your money in things that can actually make you money. Airdrops that require you to work means that you are not spending money, and then in return you either get something or you don't, but if you do, just get out.

That's the hard truth if you're checking many of these projects. After the airdrops that they have distributed from the promoters that have helped them reached success and garnered a lot of investors from their launched pre sales, they really were able to make some for themselves. And being in the market and exchanges, that's all what they can offer and who knows if there's a strategy from these projects about silent quitting. The devs are likely to do that and partly abandon the project to work for another one and the remaining devs are going to follow them and leave the project soon. And so when the bear market comes, there's the result that everyone will see that these great airdrop distributors are about to be dead soon, only a very few of them rarely continue.

Airdrops have become more like a gambling there is no assurance of payments perhaps it is optional for anyone to participate in airdrops. However, there are lots of airdrops and to be specific am participating in the hamster combat and hopefully it is going to be launched any time soon as news may have it , participants are getting ready to see what will be the outcome of it if is going to be like the notcoin payment that went vaira lately, where a lot of people got benefited although some people doubted it but it came out successful.

So many worse projects I have been seeing these days that are very stingy and do not have interest to reward their community in the right and appropriate manner. It is greed that do make many of these airdrop projects to be ending in scam or making the entire community regret about why they ever their time to invest in such airdrop. We need to understand that there are airdrops that will pay well and their are some that will not pay well. We need to ve prepared to mine like we are not expecting anything tangible from the community. This type of preparing will not really affect us if a project decided not to reward her community.

Yep, we should also diversify our efforts well and always see the risks ahead of us. This way, we will have less chances of getting nothing out of the project, and in some time, the profit will come.

So keep remembering that if anyone asks you a dime, then get out and never look back because that's a project that you should not be supporting.

Bounty hunting is still active in Bitcointalk just that it is not worth paying attention to because the outcome this days is always not a good one.
I can’t recall when last I see someone come here to testify for the general public on his earrings in bounties, because most of the projects been lunched are not worth promoting because they are mostly plagiarized projects with no good intention than to get money from investors and end it at TGE or so.
I will conclude that Bounties are still active but not worthwhile to participate in unless if been promoted by reputable managers that knows how to confirm if the project is legit or not.

And even if not scam, if a project requires you to provide liquidity, that means they are not good enough that people would do themselves, so still stay away.

It's a way out to carry more investors to their platforms. But there are people that are fan of these LPs and they make money from it. Lucky are some if the project they've provided liquidity have paid them decently after the launching. Otherwise, this is still like a gamble and there's a likely that you might lose your money from it if the project and developers of it start to act weird.

I can't remembered the last time I got involved with airdrops instead I did bounty last month thereabouts and they pays in usdt after the distribution date was reached the manager distributed and I received my reward. What happens nowadays is that most managers do accept bounty's that pays with usdt or any other known coin that is already tradable on exchange. For airdrops is a no no area because I don't want to comprised my wallet to shitcoin or peanuts.

A few years ago airdrop pay to the hunter much but gradually that trend decreasing. Although we know of some airdrops that have rewarded hunters but the number is certainly not high. While some airdrops pay, most airdrops waste hunters' time. Telegram-based airdrops have emerged recently, but not all will pay hunters. Not Coin rewarded its hunters and more projects are arrived. There is no way to say that all of them are legit projects. Scammers are always active in these areas. Therefore, before joining any new airdrop, one should take a decision by observing these issues. Airdrops and bounties had a huge impact a few years back but now they are going to be worthless.

I agree that airdrops have become more demanding so to speak, but there is still an opportunity to come, it's just the fact that the person should invest more time and effort into both the info behind the project as well as its activities to gain something out of it. And let's not forget, people who are serious about drops (with farms or a swarm of referrals aboard) are still going to profit, the game didn't change for them.

I don't believe Hamster Kombat to be successful, however, I agree that spending your time and effort on the airdprops is completely optional for everyone, and you will have better chances nowadays with the farm of accounts doing these tasks in auto mode or even have people to do it for yourself (we are speaking about referrals and even paid referrals).
