I follow bounty because I like to collect coin or tokens and at the same time I make money quickly with bounty. But now bounty a lot of scam and can not achieve sales targets.

if I personally consider that bounty hunter is a work, because we will be paid according to what we do.

Well personally I treated posting here in bitcointalk as
a hobby because I only have limited time doing bounty, and most of the time I alotted 2-3 hours reading and posting inside the forum. I am just here to learn and earn some profit at the same time because I am ony just a student.

I consider bounty as my free time filler but I really do it all right as it is working, I give what I can do for the project that I support to be successful and can reach the target

I even find it difficult to answer this question. On the one hand, the work is permanent, but it takes a lot of effort and time. Most likely, this is a hobby that requires a lot of time, and sometimes brings a profit sometimes. Therefore, this activity should have signs and works, and a hobby.
I have not yet heard that in any country demanded the payment of taxes for participation in companies generosity ICO. Its size is not that big, and therefore it is unlikely that this activity will be taxed. Perhaps only if we exchange the received tokens for ordinary money, all this will go into a single activity to make a profit from the crypto currency.

off course this is a hobby, you may only get a little reward or nothing in the end or you may get rich,  I use bounty to follow my invest ICO  project to better prepare for success and hope in the near future!
I think it depends on how much time a person devotes to this occupation. I know several people who are engaged in bounty campaigns 8-10 hours a day. I think that this is a full-fledged work.

I consider being a bounty hunter is doing a job as well as a hobby because doing bounty is like doing a hobby but can make money and can be used as a profitable job

I know some people who lead 100 campaigns at the same time and more. for them it's obviously working and considering the future growth of the crypts in the future, and I think earnings will turn out decent

I can only answer about signature campaings since that's the only bounty i do. And for me it's a way to earn some coins from promising ICO's that I will invest in anyway so if you are here at bitcointalk discussing anyway why not earn some coins at the same time.

I totally agree.
even if it is perhaps only fun at the beginning. if one deals properly with the whole
topics it becomes fast more than only a hobby and counts in my opinion already as work  Smiley

For me as a Bounty hunt I consider this job is the main thing, because I do not have much time to do other work, but I hope to have a good strategy in the future for someone like me to do a valuable job, but for me to earn big money in a bounty campaign, i enjoy hunting bounty for now.

for me it's one of the side work from the real-life bustle I do every day, I prefer this job not as boring as working in the office. work that is not boring may be a money-making hobby and a lot of knowledge from this forum.

I’m interested in how bounty hunters here view their receiving of bounty tokens and the value from holding or selling them - as a hobby or as a job with taxable income? And also are bounty hunters aware of any tax or other ‘rules’ known to apply to tokens received or sold in the various countries we live in?

Bounty is a side job that may also be my hobby too. Besides I can earn an income, I also get a lot of knowledge about the world of crypto

We have different perspective about bounty hunting, for me it's a part time job. It's my additional way of earnings, atleast I will be able to have extra income for extra expenses.

Bounty is a work created by a bunch of professionals in the field of cryptocurrency. So, if you think it a hobby then it is OK or if you think it is a work then OK. This is the perceiveness of every person about any material or the concept. But, I know for me it is a work and I am getting paid for this also.

I just posted a reply in another thread where the OP stated they considered bounty hunting was work with money paid to you for your time and resources, with it likened to running a small business. I felt rather that you’d ‘paid’ for the bounty tokens in your wallet with the time you’d used doing bounty tasks and reporting etc rather than with your own cryptocurrency or fiat, and that you needed to factor in as well the time wasted on other bounty campaigns where you didn’t get any reward/payment for your bounty work because the ICO didn’t make softcap or was unethical or a cashgrab or scam! In terms of whether bounty hunting should be seen as a part or full time job/small business or rather as a hobby where you may pick up a few dollars using your phone and computer and internet and time, I felt it would depend on each bounty hunter’s individual circumstances and prevailing tax and other laws in their country. I imagined that most bounty hunters here would treat it as a ‘hobby’ that may bring some reward of tokens that may or may not be worth anything, rather than as job giving predictable taxable income - but I’ve seen little discussion or information published about this however.

For now, since I do not have a Job anymore I am not focusing on Bounties and trading, and it got quite so good.

It Can be a Hobby at first.
depending on the volume of your bounties. with continues bounties program. you could consider that as work. for example.
at work where we get paid on weekly or monthly basis, on bounties you can achieve this if you have different bounties. and as bounties most likely run for months, this could mean a year of building different bounties and and get paid on weekly basis depending on ending of bounties and also the distribution. but regardless its better to work on a day job and make bounties on hobby basis. specially the crypto world is very volatile.

My opinion is that I consider bounties to be my hobby. Work is paid steadily, bounty if you're lucky.

Bounty hunting could be both work and a hobby. It fits to the two but it is on you on what you choose. It could be a work if you are investing a lot of time on it and a hobby if only spare time are given.
