Definitely a hobby. Today, it is impossible to earn enough money on the bounty. Basically, due to the large number of skam and ICO which have failed.
So for me it's a hobby. I am interested in crypto currency and have the opportunity to receive some coins.
Topic: Bounty hunting - work or a hobby? - page 20. (Read 1777 times)
I used to be the bounty this campaign I am working on it when I have time and I assume that this is just a hobby. But once I felt a very big result and outside my hunch. And I decided that this would be my main job and every day I can do bounty campaign more actively and focus.
A job? Don´t make me laugh, most of the times the bounties are so small that they won´t even buy you a sandwich. It is fun to participate, and occasionally you can make 100 here and there. That´s all.
When you want to earn few bucks, then it could be your hobby.
But when you want to earn a lot of money, you have to work really hard!

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.
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?

Initially, the campaign bounties were my hobby bringing a small and inconsistent income. Now I'm more experienced and I spend more time bounty campaigns. The income from the bounty is already approaching my income from the main job.
I think it is a hobby while receiving decent payment. If we consider bounty as work alone then I conclude that only few enjoyed to participates in the campaign. Hobby while working is perfect combination.
I think when you decided to join a bounty campaign that mean you already take a work 
. If it's just a hobby, you can make so many posts as you want in a week, you can tweet or retweet anything as you want but you can't when you joined a bounty campaign . You need follow the rule like the rule of a real job . Beside, you also can earn money from bounty so I think it's a job

It is really hard to find a good bounty nowadays. I think my partner and I need a break from those after receiving 3 consecutive shitcoins. I just do one signature campaign for now. And maybe will be hunting a good bounty next month.
Posting in this forum can be considered a hobby and joining bounty campaigns is a work coz you have a job to be done.

It is really refreshing if your passion and your job meet together. Bounty hunting is more like a hobby to me because I like to play with my laptop or phone at all times so as a bounty hunter, I always have the opportunity to be with my laptop or phone and I enjoy doing it. Sometimes, some bounties do not even reward you but the passion keeps us going and am glad to know this.
I don't know maybe Hobby and Work too cause it gave us money XD
so far I still count this is as a hobby, but at least it can make me some money so it is can be categorised as a work too IMO. just like the other say do it with your fun, take it on your free times, count as a hobby and the rewards will come after that.
True, it is fun and enjoyable at the same time productive because as you accomplish each week's tasks and receive stakes you will also learn a lot and gain knowledge through various thread in this forum plus you hold your own schedule of doing it just like your hobbies.
For me, everything connected with money is work. Therefore, I try to completely help those projects in which I attend. Very often it happens that a project in which very few people believe very well starts and then the profit is very large, and sometimes the very highly advertised project turns out to be a pacifier.
If you spend all your time on participating in bounty campaigns every day and earned gives you the opportunity to live at a sufficient level then it can be called a job. As for me, I have not yet earned enough to quit my real job. So, for now, this is an interesting hobby and extra earnings.
It depends on your income level. If you have a better formal job, then I think Bounty hunting can only be used as a hobby. It can give you some extra income outside of your normal work. If you are not engaged in a good career, the income of Bounty hunting may be a considerable income for you too.
i think, bounty is hobby but sometimes we invest in some projects about blockchain.
I view tokens from bounty companies as a cash asset, which is worth a lot of money. Sometimes they are even more than the usual salary. I'm not very lucky in this yet, but I'm trying. As a hobby, anything can be used, but here it is advantageous in the first place.
I think a lot of people thought of bounty as just a hobby at first. But he understood that it is possible to earn good money began to be treated as work.
I got some first tokens at bounty, it was more like fun. Now I put more on analysis and chose PKT to invest money because I see how the team of Playkey works and that it becomes utility token. So bounty was nice to start when I had no idea but its not the thing to make real money 
In some countries with a poor economy bounty hunting can be more profitable than a "standard" job. It's great opportunity to reach some money just with internet access.
