Do you mean paying by? Tokens or Btc, Eth or top currencies that has a large volume of trades? I think it would be impossible since there should be a staff here that would handle it, accountants or auditors etc. and it might needed to be transparent as well the most alternative is the escrow however even though it is encourage it's still optional and there's no rule that it's mandatory.
The best thing a bounty hunter can do is to study the project, know if they're legitimate team and of course trust your guts anyways if they are legitimate project and they didn't pay the trust for the project will be affected and if they are legitimate then of course they will protect their reputation by paying their workers.

Paying escrow funds for bounty hunters will be the best option because most projects don't pay hunters at the end of the campaign. If there's some sort of escrow payment which will ensure hunters gets paid that will be nice.
The idea is a very good one. Numerous projects have yet to fulfill their responsibility to bounty hunters, even after a successful campaign, ICO/IEO, and listing on an exchange. Putting the payment for hunters in escrow will ensure that they get paid for their tasks while also eliminating the possibility of scam allegations and the endless asking of "When payment" by hunters.
If our see and learn from experience we have faced while participating in the bounty campaign, not a few of them do not pay bounty hunters, even though we see the ICO that they hold is running successfully. and I sometimes think that they / the project owner are just looking for profit by utilizing hunters without having to pay the hunters, at the end of the campaign ...
It should have been done a long time ago, but in my opinion if it is implemented now it is too late because the era of tbounty campaign is nearing extinction because there are now many projects, but the potential is only 1-3 of dozens of new projects that arrive every quarter and I'm sure even though escrow is just a waste of time, and yes, there are also many bounty managers who guarantee payment of bounty campaigns, so this is not necessary.
Well, that is basically true.
Participating in the campaigns handled by popular campaign managers is just another thing we should look for.
BM's are indeed being paid to manage a certain campaign, but for those popular ones, they are not just accepting projects to be paid, they are still investigating the project they handled to avoid ruining their reputation.
To reduce the risk of being scammed, besides joining a campaign managed by a well-known manager, you can also choose projects that use the concept of their bounty campaign escrow tokens, funds must be handled by the campaign manager for the convenience of both parties.Participating in the campaigns handled by popular campaign managers is just another thing we should look for.

Yes, and apart from doing at least some research on the project you want to promote, although choosing a manager is also one of the reasons to avoid a fraud project, at least do a lot of preparation.
so I think the manager should use an escrow to avoid such occurances and bounty hunters not to give him a bad record.
Of course! That's almost as standard thing to do before running a campaign. Sorry I'm not into bounty that's why I have no idea how things go through there. So don't tell me that there are existing bounty campaigns which don't have an escrow? If yes then that was very hilarious 
. How is it even possible? Well, now I know why there are so many hunters complaining about being unpaid 
. Escrow is a must because it gives assurance for its participants that they will get paid when the deadline comes. Make this as one of your main criterias on joining campaigns, without it already means a waste of your hope and time. Well, that is basically true.

That's why we should only stick to popular campaign managers and avoid promoting scam projects.
We might not be able to stop them but we can just avoid and warn other members as much as we can to stop scam projects to victimize other users of this forum.

We cannot only be base on who manage the campaign we should do our own reaserch about the project before participating.
Manager paid for that job and we dont even know how they review a project before picking it to manage.
There will be good campaign manage by reputable manager but its not good always there is also a chance that they will run a scam bounty campaign or small payment bounty campaign.

I understand your plight very well, so many bounty hunters have complained about same issue,after the success of a project ,paying bounty hunters becomes a problem,which is very bad,and it's not from the bounty manager but the team, so I think the manager should use an escrow to avoid such occurances and bounty hunters not to give him a bad record.
You are promoting Reckoon bounty project which is available on bountyhive, the website uses escrow so I belief that's why you make this post, this forum is different from bountyhive because bountyhive is a bounty platform, this forum is not a bounty platform, all you can do is find trust bounty managers and you should b fine
Bountyhive has not had a good name up there in a really really long time. And by good name I do not just mean bounties that pay out. That is easy to do and should be the minimum of a project. By good name I actually mean a real project where people actually do things well and promote good behaviors and have a real product and community.
Bountyhive now is no longer like it used to be now many hunters who leave it because it often promotes nonsense projects meaning that after we get the token of results from bountyhive nothing can be sold because it does not have good value on the exchange. So now bountyhive increasingly empty of visitors.
We better look for bounties in the forum because we can assess the project and see the behavior of managers who always filter the project well.
Not only bountyhive, now most of the projects become failed. Few projects give payment but we can't sell that tokens. So bounty is now free work for the project from the bounty hunters. But real project is rarely come and their terms and conditions are not up to the hard work.

Will it be wise if this forum put up a request that ALL NEW PROJECTS EXPECTING TO RUN BOUNTIES SHOULD PAY A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF FUNDS BEFORE CONDUCTING ANY BOUNTY OR run an ESCROW.
The fund will be use to settle hunters should incase project owners Refuse to pay hunters Or decides to play tricks with hunters payment after a successful bounty campaign. For over a long period, hunters has been crying and wailing about successful campaigns that has refused to make payment. there are new campaigns on-going and more projects will run bounty campaigns sooner or later. the issue of payment is still a lingering problem here with No solid profound solution. Apart from the fact that some projects has the ANN Thread labelled as SCAMS, it is still do not offer solutions to payments.
the idea above is just a suggestion.. we all hope that a perfect solution will solve this issue of projects refusing to settle hunters here and will promote this platform.

Nice suggestion you draft out mate, the problem of team and developers not wanting to pay for bounty campaign has lingers for so long since the early days of icos. I think every bounty hunters have had a share of that experience. Many bountyanagers have tried implementing the escrow token system but the project developers won't just yield to the approach and there will always be some bounty manager guy out there who is always ready to take up the campaign no matter how shity the teams proposal is.
It's been long since I received payment from bounties and I've been promoting bounties since last year, all projects I've promoted are up to ten different projects and no single one payed yet, I will keep promoting bounty projects because I believe the time will come
Indeed the time will come, but at least we must also have awareness about the right time to promote any bounty project that exists. Not all the time and opportunities that will give you good results and as you have experienced at least it is an experience that becomes a learning for you to know and realize the right time to enter. We don't need to spend a lot of our time just promoting scam projects and if you continue to do so, it is very likely to have a worse impact in the future.trying and learned from your previous mistakes or experiences, as it's really the good way to pick any project to join in.
Knowing the right potential project that based with experiences gave you high chance to select the good one for your time.

Presently there is nothing more painful than promoting a a scam or fake project for months and later on you detect of hear from others that the project you've been promoting for month turned scam, I've learned the hard way in the past, we just have to be careful which project we promoting

Bounty payment ofcourse matters.
Either we work offline in offices or online as a bounty hunter or freelancers, the truth remains that we work for money.
And unless payments is discussed neither will work.
Hence the reason why we must join bounty programs that has a 80 - 100 % of payment to be made
Do your own research, join escrowed bounties, join reliable bounties
My suggestion
It's been long since I received payment from bounties and I've been promoting bounties since last year, all projects I've promoted are up to ten different projects and no single one payed yet, I will keep promoting bounty projects because I believe the time will come

Most people will agree with that, it just like guarantee the project will running on the right track. But we don't know how developer and BTT admin deal because that is not our space. Bounty hunter need their reward for their work but the problem is not finish in there, we also need the product ( coin ) listing on exchanges. Small reward is fine but ca listing is our hope also.
