Some people make lots of money participating in bounty campaigns.

Just look at MobileGO for example, lots of users made huge bank.

Not need ICO large as MobileGo, let's see Bitquence in last week, I'm a member from this bounty signature campaign, and the reward for me if I still keep my coin is 0.5 BTC for 3 weeks joined + 2 weeks wait payment + 1 weeks wait the price of this token pump to highest price

Lately, the vast majority of the ICO bounty campaign sucks and not worth your time to promote them.

What I found are the following from my own experience:

Poor managed campaign without transparent communication and delay.
Many will not even reach the minimum payout, and you will receive nothing for your effort.
They accept too many people and when they count the stakes, you receive a little reward not worth the time.
Too many bugs and slow access to bounty websites.

Some solutions should standardize the process of marketing the ICO.

Pay bounty participants in ETH or BTC even if the project fails with money protected before the bounty.
All bounty campaign should migrate to web based solutions to simplify the stakes distribution.
Limit the people on each campaign to give a good value of your time and energy.

My advice: Think twice before promoting an ICO, we are human and your valuable time should be spent on something worth it for the effort.

Thanks for advice and citations. I will use it as reference so that i can find a better campaign in the future. But for now, i will stick with my current campaign and do my best to make it successful so that i can receive the appriopiate amount for my work in promoting them. If this campaign become what you've stated above, then i will just try my luck to find a better campaign, by using your ideas as references

I agree with the OP here but it still depends on the campaign manager handling the campaign too most particularly the number of participants should be limited. Hopefully they would work out on a fair and equal solution so the campaign will be promoted and treated as a real job for some and maybe, just maybe spamming would be minimized as well.

I think this is not a solution, you are just showing selfishness, and I see a helplessness here, the helplessness of a guy who did not choose the money campaign. Good reward to join. You are trying to ignore your failure, before joining any bonus campaign, you need to be a smart person. You are just angry at your stupidity.

I think he is just butthurt because maybe he joined some failed ICO bounties where the result was not as what he expected. Joining in ICO promotion bounties is like a sports betting imo where we should do some research, analysis, etc to predict whether the ICO will success or not.

Participate in Bounty campaigns like gambling. It depends on how smart you analyze a project, although the end result remains unpredictable. But, by participating in the Bounty campaign we open up the chance to win.

So.. the smarter you are in analyzing a project. The greater your chances of winning.
It goes back to of their respective assessment. Whether participating in Bounty is worth it or not.

This is what im doing now which i do really learned up on the past when i did experience on have been paid out on small amounts on promoting them for almost 2 months which do really suck. Yes its like gambling if you dont know how to spot or see a potential ICO/ project because there already lots of projects in the market as of now and sees almost everyday they do launched which really makes the choosing would really be hard.

Too many bounties being held nowadays and most of them will be worthless. Paying a half in btc and the other half in token will be good from participants point of view. So, if the project failed, participant still have something from their 'hard work'. And if the project gain a massive success, participants have a chance to be millionaire. Grin

What shall we take into account while choosing ICO? Because a number of us make money investing ICO or taking part in bounty campaign. In any case you may lose your money. But you can choose what to spend: your time or money?
So, how to find out reliable ICO? I know that some people look at team members. If they are known and popular, they invest. But those who are newbie in cryptocurrency can't identify them.

I'd recommend researching the organization you are thinking about promoting before promoting them. Always make sure the campaign you are promoting meets your own standards. I joined my first bounty program after researching the founders and I saw good things. Of course, if there is a questionable person managing the campaign, then it might not matter how solid the organization is.

I agree though that tokens should be set aside beforehand for bounties to make sure people are properly paid.

Absolutely agree. I've had negative to mediocre experiences with EVERY bounty campaign I've tried to work on, with the mild exception of my current sig, although the Zen campaign is from a semi-established project AND the rewards are relatively small.

Granted this is the first sig I've had for a project is followed beforehand and actually have good expectations for it.

I think the key point that bounties be paid proactively (weekly, monthly, etc...) Instead of a one time like sun in the"future" AND that they be paid via an existing currency (BTC/ETH being the obvious choices) would likely all but eliminate the scamming/lack of follow through many projects have been plagued with.

Most of the ICO bounties that are failing I see as a side effect of what are actually very shallow and destined to fail projects that are just leeching money from the community for projects they KNOW they can't or won't deliver.

That is true, but sometimes you just have to be smart about it and choose wisely.

I personally think we should be more grateful for these earning opportunities. If it were not for these bounty campaigns when I was out of a job we could have been homeless. I think the problem is everyone wishes for very fast money without doing much hard work. I agree, scammy ICOS are not good but we should be realistic that we should work to earn this decent pay many ICOS do offer.

Your findings is true as well as your recommendations however, the part of the recommendation you fail to mention is for one to be vigilant in joining any bounty campogn blindly. We have seen projects that have even paid *3 of its original proposal while some have been managed by reputable managers on the forum and they have delivered on their promises.. A campaign manager will state the details of the contract, you are not under compulsion to accept.

I hope this concern will reach the moderators and leaders of this forum!

This is a timely reminder for all of us here, regardless of whether you are a bounty hunter, project member, moderator, or whatever.

If I may add some notes. This forum is too overcrowded already I guess. I think it would help this forum to be kept healthy and survive for a long time if some rules such as the following will be adapted:

1. Limit the entrants. Somewhere along 30-50 a month would do.
2. Adapt stricter measures so that all those reaching a certain negative % in trust should be permanently kicked out. Include those who have multi accounts and doing scams and spams.
3. Dormant accounts within a month or a couple of weeks should be permanently kicked out as well.

I have several more in mind but I think I am like ranting here. Grin

! I think the rules #3 not reasonable with many member on this forum, because not everyone also have many free time for login account, write some post just avoid banned their account, most member in board mining are old member but they frequent inactivity, they only look to this forum when they feel the need find some people helps them to answer questions and they do not make money from campaign at here.

I completely agree with you as when we participate in an ICO, it's not for a week or 2. It's for months and many times ICOs fail and the participants receive nothing in exchange for promoting the same and following the rules as well. Since hey also lose in the end, I can understand that they can't manage to pay their participants but when the ICOs earn, they have so many applicants participating in their bounty program that the ones that joined just one day before the end of the ICO also get a share in the rewards which is unfair to those that were participating since the beginning. Some pay in ETH/BTC but it happens only if they have been funded before.

Sad

Yes, I agree, should they implement a queue and have some quota that can be filled, so there will not be too many members of this forum that will follow it. But I think if the system is implemented, the devloper will not agree, because the purpose of bounty does attract as much attention.

That's the risk, take it or leave it. I believe they know what the best for them and worth or not. As long they take to promote ICO, it will be calculated with the risk. After the time they will learn about worth or not, even we say no to promote they will take it as a challenge. I will support everyone to take this challenge for little money and great experience. Hope will find success and good luck.

I think manager campaign and devs distribute bounty can create 2 option payment:

1. Payment via ETH, BTC for people not want hold this coin from bounty, of course the rate will be like Signature campaign service or lower than depending devs bounty.
2. Payment via ICO token for people interesting this project, but not have money for investing (as me), the rate, stake still normally other bounty in current, but need have limit 150 members - 300 members for avoid spammer, maybe need high than rank Member or Full Member for join this bounty

This is real talk and its really a waste of time if a certain ICO wont able to pay you out or if they pay they do only give amounts which is very small which isnt really worth for our time and effort. I would really suggest to limit the participants so that bounty distributions or partitions would really be sufficient and would really be worth it for their promoters unlike on dont having limits i can say its not really worth to join in.

Yup, it's true. Some of the campaign managers are also very sloppy, and are not that very organized. Some don't even use escrows so the payments are not trusted. I agree that bounty participants should be paid even when the project fails or when the payout for the token sale is not met. It is unfair for the participants who have exerted effort and wore their signatures for their campaign.

I guess that one should just learn and research on the ICO first before participating so that you don't waste your time and effort.

They do made such decision because they dont have enough money to be given out since we know the project or funding didnt go well and expected there would really be cost-cutting and bounty hunters would really be mainly affected and its just really normal. This is the risk either a win or lose situation and just like gambling too. If we do hit the cap then for sure we would really enjoyed the bounty after all.

Once you hit a bad Project then expect you wont really got nothing or would possibly got pennies on all the efforts you do made on promoting them.I have experienced this thing and i can really compare the ico in the past and into the present.I would rather go back in the past because i remember the days which i do earn big amounts on promoting them unlike now,you will just earn the amount not worth on the hard work you done.

Yup, it's true. Some of the campaign managers are also very sloppy, and are not that very organized. Some don't even use escrows so the payments are not trusted. I agree that bounty participants should be paid even when the project fails or when the payout for the token sale is not met. It is unfair for the participants who have exerted effort and wore their signatures for their campaign.

I guess that one should just learn and research on the ICO first before participating so that you don't waste your time and effort.

This is very bad to the whole system

For a small profit all of you keep saying to buy an altcoin, to invest on the project, even if the project is bad

Coindash operated their bounties very well, I think it's my good luck to join.But most of the time , I have to agree with you , plenty of ICO bounties are not worth participating.

Did you already get paid bounties? I haven't received any payment yet.

Are you feeling stress due to the unsuccessful ico or you will get a low payment for your promotion? But i can say not at all. There are some previous campaign that has really worth with our effort such as bancor.
I got around 5k dollar for my payment to promos the project into the world.

This is really the risk on joining Bounty campaigns which we wont really know which project do have potential to pay us up on good rates and whos not gonna pay after all the hard work we done and this thing is just really a normal thing as of now and it becomes more and more harder because there are lots of ICOs already which are popping out everywhere which its really very hard to choose up now a good project.

It all depends on the campaign itself, With a good & professional Campaign manager to start with campaign will make everything flow smoothly. As for payments its all gamble for bounty hunters same goes way with the investors, Bounty Hunters spends time and effort while investors spends money.

It really depends on the ICO itself. I agree with you that many ICO's these days have no good bounty program, some of them not even reaching the minimum cap. I participated in Indorse now. They are very well organized.

it's very true, i sometimes also feel saturated and tired when working on Bounty and that pissed me off is not paid in accordance with our hard work, many bitcointalk users are popping up but there is no limit on the bitcoin hunters to join the campaign that makes the participants' payments very small. Sad

Lately, the vast majority of the ICO bounty campaign sucks and not worth your time to promote them.

What I found are the following from my own experience:

Poor managed campaign without transparent communication and delay.
Many will not even reach the minimum payout, and you will receive nothing for your effort.
They accept too many people and when they count the stakes, you receive a little reward not worth the time.
Too many bugs and slow access to bounty websites.

Some solutions should standardize the process of marketing the ICO.

Pay bounty participants in ETH or BTC even if the project fails with money protected before the bounty.
All bounty campaign should migrate to web based solutions to simplify the stakes distribution.
Limit the people on each campaign to give a good value of your time and energy.

My advice: Think twice before promoting an ICO, we are human and your valuable time should be spent on something worth it for the effort.
