My experience so far with bounty this year have been bad and it is not as profitable as it used to be. Mainly bounty hunters don't really get good projects that will pay and those that pay just pay a penny which is not worth the time and energy put into the work.
My question is, is it possible to still make a living from bounty or we should just move on from it?

Make a living? You wil rely on bounty about this? I think you should find a rea job and make bounty just a part time cause isnt really a sure income in the first place. People joining bounty should at least know how to differentiate good from scam project so their time wouldnt be wasted. The past bounty hunting still marks the same era for me cause until now I still earn from my campaigns so I think the problem here is the way you choose which campaign to join.

If I have been hunting for prizes at the bounty as a side job because of the many projects we have participated in, we will not necessarily get satisfying results, if in the past there were quite a bit of results, but now it is very rare to find good projects so that the results we get not as expected.

Every year the bounty glory is different, I have been playing in the bounty since 2017, and at that time many bounty participants became rich suddenly, but in the past year and this year it was no longer so, because of the many bounty projects that were scam, and for the solution is not just to make a living through bounties, but try to make a living through other or real work whose results are very clear, because now the results through bounties are less clear and difficult to guess.

Ofcourse nobody can argue this with you OP because many if these bounties are done basically to the detriment of the hunters as we have seen recently. Many project now adopt a new way to reward hunters and then dump the said token in the market, just to frustrat the project and take their exit roots.

No dream is too big and no dreamer is too small

I think that's correct, but I will not loss my hope that one day it will come back again.
Bounty hunting has a correlation with the market status, now, the market is not blooming yet, so the moment it will start, bounty hunters will also start promoting successful projects, and just like investors, bounty hunters will also have to deal with if the market is bad.

Therefore, bounty hunting should not be considered as a main job as there is no assurance with this, although now, there are some people who are making money with it, but there's significant drop of income compared to what they have made in the year 2016 and 2017.

The heyday of ICO is a thing of the past, bounty campaigns are a thing of the past. Now they do not bring material benefit the participants.
But now we can just support the projects that we like Wink

it's true if you say that the bounty hunter has passed its heyday, but we can't say that it's over. in fact, there are still many bounties that actually pay, and it's worth it. it's just that not all bounties and project success go together, so when a project is successful, the bounty will also be successful.

Well, continuing the bounty, or not, it depends on your choice. until now, I think the bounty is still very reasonable, and quite good. it's only a matter of time until it recovers. I still believe in that.

My experience is the same. Projects are delaying too much for distribution and once done, we realized that we got very less worth of high efforts.
These days are history that we can relay on bounty income. I don't think we should move out. We should keep working holding for long term and being optimistic.

Learned from what you've been experienced, it's not longer that much profitable especially when you participated with scam projects, the glory days are not that the same but there's still possibilities of getting in with a good one which can still deliver better outcome, don't lose hope but also don't rely on it, best to get a day job that can sustain your everyday needs.

The bounties have changed right now. Because there are too many scam projects. The next thing is the low allocation. Another thing is a large number of participants. Because the bounties are famous than last year right now. Then so many guys doing bounties.

No, unless you will really provide some time and effort to do it.
Most users here now are just joining Facebook campaigns and Twitter. That way they could join all the bounties that are being posted by companies in the bounty section.
Now, that is a lot of work which includes weekly reports and sharing and tweeting. If you have that kind of amount of time to do it then I would better stay with my day job doing what I am best at.
If you enjoy that kind of field then maybe it could work for you.

This year's gift is not too bad because some bounty participants still get thousands of dollars this year. I admit it's not easy to find potential bounties now, it's like looking for a needle in straw but don't give up because luck is on those who have tried.

Since 2017 , bounty give me a life. Helping me for all financial aspect in my life. Its come from mega project in that days like Crypterium, INSecosystem, Covesting, Credits. All of that moment are rare and maybe will never happened anymore. And now 2019, so many scam project are awakened. And this will made us more careful and selective for joining bounty or you will got nothing and sometimes ended with red trust due promoting a scam project. So the solution for this matter, just doing your own business or work on your real life. Bounty just alternative way for now.

Since long ago I personally made this Bounty campaign as my side job, but it is true as you say that in 2017 so many projects are able to give us a profit when we follow the Bounty campaign. Now the bounty hunter begins to complain because every bounty campaign that followed by them is a scam project.

It's not worth making a living our of bounty hunting now, 2019 is, in fact, bad for bounty hunting compared 2017, where just one bounty is enough to make you lots of money, but now you can be in almost 20 bounty hunting but that doesn't guaranty that you can earn much, you cannot even earn half of what you are earning back 2017.

If you're into bounties, what happens if you hold the coins? Based on forks of bitcoin, once airdropped the base rate of the coins are pretty low but then they normally go up and then back down again (like bch) do bounties do this sort of thing? Maybe it's just people are selling too quickly and killing the price because they're after immediate gains (but I have no idea on how the community works).

Hunters who hold their rewards usually ends up disappointed and left with almost worthless coins since it's being dumped quickly after listing. Liquidity for these bounty coins/tokens are low so they will have to wait for the next "big announcement" from the team before they can sell at a better price, that is if the team is legit and won't abandon the project.

It's not same the old days that the bounties were profitable like the year 2017. Try to find bounties again that launch IEOs I'm sure they are paying, but don't expect you get high rewards. Just move on don't give up.

Yeah absolutely right. Bounty hunting has past its glory days because unlike bounty hunting in the past, it was so profittable maybe because of small participants so the bounty allocation is devided into few, while bounty hunting for now seems just to earn few pennies because more and more participants yet the token to be listed is so very low in price.

What you say is true, Bounty hunters now don't get rewarded in accordance with their work, not like they used to. But I am sure there is still a good Bounty campaign that will provide appropriate rewards to its participants, Bounty hunters must do previous research.

Switching from Bounty, I think this is not a good decision. Although the condition is now very different from the year 2017 because at that time Bounty gives a great advantage. I'll stay in the fight and do a Bounty campaign because it's a good time to collect new coins.

I think at 2020 the market price will also return successfully. So when Crypto succeeds, I'll also sell all the coins. Take advantage of opportunities that exist for the future.
