I have joined the bounty campaign which managed by julerz12 . This is the bounty thread
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bounty-bitpaction-exchange-ended-3315365. I joined the signature campaign and content campaign (Article).
The bounty have 8 weeks schedule (I joined from week 3. I and all participants do their tasks as the rules on the thread, and the bounty campaign running well, participants get their stakes as their works. On week 7th, julerz12 (Bounty Manager) announced that the Bitpaction team decided to end the bounty campaign on week 7th. Then, 1-2 days after that BM finalized the spreadsheet and gave us 2 days for appealing concerns. Then, 2 days after that julerz12 announced that spreadsheet was final and he already submitted to Bitpaction team, and Bitpaction team confirmed that.
After this, all participants waiting for payment. But, this is the crazy thing, Bitpaction reduced the rewards so crazy, they reduced twice. First they reduce 250K from original allocation. The original allocation is 1M BPS as seen on bounty thread. I think Bitpaction team not reduce it again, but evidently they reduce rewards again, and it more crazy than the first. The bad thing is I'm not backup the spreadsheet after julerz12 done and before the team reduce it.
Then, I asked why they reduce the rewards, and their answer is not reasonable. They said that performance of the bounty is not grateful, the only grateful is social media campaign (Twitter and Facebook). Let me list the reduction rewards.
- 1. Translation Campaign
From 200K BPS -> 25K BPS
Their reason is because the translated not bring much visitor and the quality is not satisfying.
- 2. Signature Campaign
From 300K BPS -> 125K BPS
Their reason is because on June 2nd, participants not wearing the signature.
This is the team said (Telegram name 'Tab')About signature activities.
I am every bounty hunter. I have already seen it.
I went to see it around June 2.
However, the vast majority of signatures have changed.
We do not know if the signature lasted for seven weeks.
- 3. Facebook and Twitter Campaign
From 200K BPS for each -> 175K BPS for each
They not reduce again from first, their reason is because the works is grateful.
- 4. Content Campaign
From 100K BPS -> 50K BPS
Before this, each participants get the stakes as the quality of their own content. It have reviewed by Bounty Manager. (I got incredible status with 300 stakes). But, the bitpaction team changed them all to normal status with 100 stakes to each content. Their reason is because a lot of content duplicates with what they wrote a month ago.
This is they said We do see some work is very bad (ANN threads, blog posts).
The vast majority of the quality is copied and pasted, and it duplicates what we wrote a few months ago.
I want to deliver my advocacy.
They said that content and translation is not satisfying and the social media is more satisfying.
The translation and content campaign have a special criteria and point for the quality, and these have reviewed by BM the person you trust to handle it. And BM has done their job, why bitpaction team not believe to BM's works? For what they rent a BM to handle this bounty campaign if they feel they can handle it?
They said that most content is same with what they wrote a month ago. The participants of content campaign wrote their own content with source is from their platform, all information seen on their platform is the material to write the content, and I believe they not just copy paste. And I more again, the Bounty Manager was reviewed them all, and once again why the bitpaction team not believe with julerz12's work? They discredited julerz12's work.
And for signature campaign, they said that on June 2 that most participants not wearing or changed the signature. I have proof that julerz12 please us to change it on first June (You can see on bounty thread). Also, this is funny if signature campaign rewards pool is less then social media campaign pool for each. As we know, the signature campaign is very effective and efficient to promote an ICO, because bitcointalk is qibla of cryptocurency. And this will affect to the reputation of the ICO.
Also, Bounty manager said that before run this bounty, he has agreement with Bitpaction team about how many tokens will be allocated to this bounty campaign.
Proof :
I hope the Bitpaction team realize this, and restore to original allocation bounty pool.
UpdateNow they changed the signature campaign pool again to
262500 BPS. But for Translation and content campaign still not changed.
And they decide to freeze the bounty rewards after paid to bounties participant's account for 3 months. And they will unlock every month by 33.33%.

Hello, I'm here
Sorry, waited a long time.
After the team discussion, the bounty list has been updated.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1JKUZB1Ii6vQbFmE5mouJYlzMDnr4-4wddzUyW2qC7oc/edit#gid=474825804we will distribute rewards.
In addition to the ANN thread/blog content, the bounty for other activities did not decrease.
The reason I have already mentioned in the previous article.
Bounty, we will distribute it within a week.
We do not want to evade or breach the contract. If BPS is worthless or like other token issued by scammer project. We will not care and could distribute it as dirt. However, BPS is not a newly-issued or worthless token. Meanwhile, you can enjoy multiple reward program.
1. Holding BPS will enjoy the platform dividend program.
2. Holding BPS will enjoy platform airdrop programs.
In order to maintain the value of the BPS and protect the prospect of the BPS in your hands. We will freeze the BPS for three months and release 33.33% every month. The frozen BPS will be counted in dividend program and airdrop plans.
