don't be too disappointed, i've also been working on a bounty project in the last few months. but the result is that none of the bounty projects have succeeded in adding to my pocket money. maybe i'm unlucky. but i always try to do my best, for the final result, i leave it to my luck.
Maybe I believe in luck in participating in bounties this time. But never I think we should have to put everything like this coz research is still on the top strategy to find 1(or even less) over a hundred or thousands of useless projects. But yes, something we need to find reliable job offer rather than joining bounties as they are not worth enough as per to see.
if you don't like the current bounty or are not happy with the results, then stop.
because no one is forcing you or me to join their bounty project.
It is not an issue if we are forced or not but, what really matters is the quality of these bounties that never wastes the time of those who come and join them. They have shown in the market and promise something to have a good reward after but unfortunately, people become hopeless as for months of waiting until years come, nothing had changed, still $0.
