Topic: BOUNTY PAYMENT MATTERS - page 15. (Read 1934 times)
If any decide to be a bounty Hunter always know that you are on your own, you have to safe your neck, time and energy yourself by doing research, moderators have enough things on their hands to worry about, not legitimacy of new projects, it's none of their business
many of these projects currently use prize hunters only to promote their projects and after that they don't want to pay for the prize hunter's top hard work. that's it's very sad and of course many prize hunters cry after their hard work is only paid for with tears. everyone has the right to ask for payment, but that is the problem right now. It should be SCAM projects not be held in this forum because that's it is very detrimental.
If their projects are successful in funding sometimes there are some projects that do not want to pay bounty hunters while their projects continue, there are even cases of teams cutting bounty allocations without prior notice to the participants and this makes them disappointed because their work is only paid cheap when time campaign for quite a long time.There's nothing we can do but ask for good bounty payments from the managers who take responsibility for the payments. Other participants might be annoyed with this kind of situation, but as a person with professionalism, we must understand and have patience over this matter. Some of these project that continued to prosper with their project have perfect time to pay their participants as long as they're getting updates from the team.

This is a very good idea, but the problem is – this is a cryptocurrency space and there is nobody that will handle such work unless you’re referring to the mods in this forum because they are the ones that can at least be trusted with such a job, but I don’t think they will agree to do that. If cryptocurrency is something that is regulated/centralized, then such thing would have been possible.
So, it is not going to be possible, you just have to look for the projects that are really good and go for it. Any project that seems suspicious to you should be avoided so that you don’t end up in a situation where you will not be paid after your hard work.

Yeah, the best idea i think and it would be guaranteed payment for the bounty hunters. Definitely after this rules bounty will be changing but mostly the new projects will be oppose these rule.
Not just oppose but totally will never agreed. You can make some exceptions such as xx coin having their signature campaign with btc payment even though they are still on their ICO stage. Ive remember metahash campaign by Irfan_pak10 which also gave ethereum as payment rather than the coin. But OP suggestion would mess up a lot of new projects if this will be implemented. Probably many will not agree to the terms if such new provision about this will come out.
It is great actually to have an escrow but too few would consider paying for an escrow service, because pretty much it is due to their own budget plan for the project. There will always be scams hiding in the shadows in the bounty board. A reputated BM could reduce the possibility of getting scammed in bounties, but that doesn't eliminate the fact that everything is still in the hands on those who manage it. Having an ETH payment is quite nice, but most bounties pay through stakes.
Of course, I completely agree with you, but unfortunately I do not think there will be many such companies that will immediately transfer their tokens in escrow, and there are already such bounty platforms where they are engaged in this, but of course there are a lot of problems there.
Yes the number of fails projects are increasing day by day and they are refused to pay for bounty hunters rewards.and it costs a lot of our time and hard work has been wasted so better to get a payment with weekly bases in any good coins like btc or any other altcoins.
That's right, I personally also experience things like you said, sometimes I also feel disappointed with projects that don't pay, because they have wasted my time for months, because time is a very valuable capital and a thing that is not can be repeated again.

This is the reason why only few bounty hunter's continue to promote a project . If you see marketplace altcoin you will see the difference from what participants before and compare it to what it is now there mnay changes and participants reduce to almost nothing now.

It is a wise decision but it is impossible to happen. This forum was not responsible to filter every project by requiring them to provide an early payment or hold their money by an escrow that can be use if ever that they don't pay bounty hunters. It is always on our end to look for bounty campaigns to participate with, it is also our responsibility to find a legit one.
It's not even a new idea, people has been offered and discussed about this escrow thingy for several years yet new projects are so stubborn with their rules and regulation to actually release the bounty payments to escrow.
I think by actually saving the pool to escrow makes the project become more well known and could bring more investors because the funds are actually safe and you don't need to be afraid for not getting paid(how much is the reward is not a case here that's a different story)>
This is a good suggestion though it has been discussed already in the previous years and up to now still nothing happens. I think it's our initiative already which bounty campaigns to join so we should make a thorough research about the project before participating in it. If the project fails and refuse to pay us, we have nothing to do but find another potential project again.I think by actually saving the pool to escrow makes the project become more well known and could bring more investors because the funds are actually safe and you don't need to be afraid for not getting paid(how much is the reward is not a case here that's a different story)>
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.
As project types bounty promote is up to CEO that bounty is mandatory, request doesn't work. Now top exchange IEO doesn't need bounty campaign. This types of bounty support post we can make but don't work. Still I can't see any process which projects didn't distribute bounty payment because all devs is guessing bounty is free reward.

That's one solution, bounty that guarantees payment by escrow usually attracts greater interest. But that's actually not the final target, because even though using Escrow, there are no further steps for listing on the exchange also become in vain, right?
Overall, this drama has always had a domino effect and developers have always argued that they have the right to make cuts, delays, and lock rewards for bounty hunters in anticipation of a big dump. Oh, that's big bulls*it. If dev is worried about that, then it's best to give a BTC or ETH reward from the start, it's safer to keep the dump from the bounty hunter as expected.
The rest, as bounty hunters we must be prepared with all the risks, the worst is not paid, and our hard work ends in vain. Once again, that's a risk, friend.

It is a good idea to be serious because you are right that payments have become an issue ever since in every bounty campaign for the case that there are some that does not pay even after the span of promotion time has been done leaving the bounty hunters set aside without pay. But the concern to raise up an awareness to the moderators of this forum of putting up the phrases you have said seems to be impossible since they are just maintaining that everything is going smooth. The issue seems to be bounded between the team behind the project and the investors as well as the bounty hunters so whatever happens inside will just be the concern of those parties inside it. Also, it will be hard for that policy to be made into action since a project promotion is being done to raise awareness for potential investors to come and project developers might be against such policy due to their own reasoning. Although we are all concern about such thing of payment, it will be real hard for the idea to be made into reality. But there are already existing projects having escrow so if you do want to assure payments, then better be looking for such projects having that element.

Your suggestion will protect the bounty hunters, however, it would not be possible as most of the projects that are running a bounty does rely only on what they can collect during the crowdsale, if BTC would be the payment, then probably we can make it possible, but most are paying their tokens or coins.
Indeed, bounty projects don't really have enough funds to start their project that's why they are gathering funds by undergoing initial coin offering. That is the only time when they can start to make a progress of their project once they have collected enough funds, that is why it is impossible for them to require to provide money for the security of bounty hunters.yes i totally agree but this problem can be solved by not asking for money but asking for their time to pitch their project and get votes :
if they get the minimum votes they can list their project in bounty section only high rank members are allowed to vote this would be our own community voting listing. And voting doesn't require any extra work on the developers part all of these features are already in place.
Members can ask all the right questions upfront before voting as this way they can judge if the project team is actually capable of making something as good as they claim in their whitepapers. This can be optional as well but the projects which pass through this procedure may get a badge on the bounty as verified.
I see that more and more new bounty campaigns run only social media campaigns and bitcointalk signatures campaign are excluded from the lists. I am thinking why? Maybe the number of users here decreased? But it doesn´t make a sense. Where else you would find a focused audience than on this forum? Twitter, Facebook, Linkedins are now full of bots and fake profiles and bounty managers know it and despite it they do no make any changes.
