Some bounty managers are directly involved with scam projects. They themselves build a website, run bounty here and scam investors money while promoters receive nothing. Kakatua is one of examples. So, it is always better to only participate in campaigns which is managed by reputed campaign managers like Yahoo, Hhampuz. Remember, it is better to join one campaign a year than hundreds in a month.
I totally agree with you, just participating in the best campaigns from reputable managers is enough. Do not waste time with ambiguous campaigns and managed by new people

Bounty manager themselves can't guarantee the success of a bounty campaign but they can make it much secure for the participants. There are now a few bounty managers in the altcoin bounty section who would ask the project to escrow the funds with them and they'll be responsible to distribute the coins after the campaign. It does provide some sense of security to the participants but still don't add up any chances of reducing the scam as a good project would pay anyway while a bad one even if they paid with tokens would be useless.
This is exactly what happen to the kingcasino bounty. The bounty managers did escrowed the funds in favor of the participants. All they wanted it was to make it secure for the participants but the project themselves claimed they failed to reach their target and plans to refund the investors. This way the effort made by the bounty participants went in vain and bounty managers too failed to reward their users as the coins they hold, holds no value. A successful bounty depends on the effort of a lot of people not just bounty manager.

Bounty campaigns are unpredictable. Speaking of success, it is said that you should join bounties that are handled by a trusted managers in order for you to receive the rewards in the long run. However there are also good profitable bounties that can be taken from not popular bounty manager but too risky to join.
I can name few bounty campaigns that I joined this year and last year that are manages by the project's team members themselves? What's your take on this? It's not always about the reputation of bounty managers, quality of the projects are important too Some bounty managers are directly involved with scam projects.

Since you mentioned Yahoo and Hhampuz then this post doesn't belong in this section, these two bounty managers are known for introducing only BTC paying campaigns, this is altcoin section, how about mentioning some well known altcoin bounty managers since you create this topic in altcoin section?? legendary

Question to Little Mouse - how can a manager get reputation, when no one participates in his bounty? 
Or you think that BM should get a reputation on the forum (trust system?) and only then manage campaign? Agree with it.
They should be active in the forum, know forum basics, established themselves as a good reputed or well recognised member in the forum the way Yahoo, Hhampuz and some others did and after that they should start campaign management. Although, I have started earlier but I had not launched any altcoin bounty till now, one of the reasons is that all the bounty management jobs I got were either scam or not so impressive which is why I have denied the proposal. Or you think that BM should get a reputation on the forum (trust system?) and only then manage campaign? Agree with it.
Indeed, many bounty managers are associated with fraudsters and specifically create bounty companies here so that we promote their fictitious companies and they make money from it, so we should always study all the bounty companies in which we want to participate and of course we need to pay attention to the bounty managers too.
I think the best one is bubblealex, arteezy and bounty detective, especially the last cause he has too many projects active.
But this is totally wrong. Quantity doesnt mean quality. Bounty detective still have lots of issues with feeling spreadsheets. Proof - check any campaign Complaint Form and see that some issues are not solved for weeks. While, for example, bubbalex solves everything in 1-2 days.

You are right, bounty managers with good reputations hardly introduce scam projects, there is different between a failed project and a project that turned scam, few projects from arteezy that failed to pay till date aren't scam but failed due to lack of enough fund. Popular bounty managers are better
Even to this day reputable bounty managers still use the word ' not perfect', they still warn bounty hunters to do their own research, bubbalex did this from time to time, stating that anything can happen that he isn't perfect, remember that even if projects don't turn scam they can still fail
I'm against this advice OP, if we can ask questions from reputable bounty managers in this space they will definitely tell you their past experiences with the first bounty projects they managed, you can't expect bounty managers to be pro on first day

Dude, mostly campaign that being managed by yahoo or Hhampuz were bitcoin campaign but it's better if you are adding some related in the altcoin campaign management service like murat or others. kakatua is such an example for the scam manager who has been offering the scam service to create scam bounty.
those bounty manager really have good reputation while managing campaign, and mostly their campaign using bitcoin so no one will scammed on their campaign. joining in unreputed manager make us like make speculation in our work, will this be legit project or maybe scamm again. analize every campaign well so we will decrease scam possibility.
There is still big difference between bubbalex and arteezy, the way they do research on projects are big enough and it shows that bubbalex is just better, last year arteezy introduce few scam projects and till date the projects are dead without bounty hunters getting their rewards, I'd choose bubbalex over arteezy any time any day
Im just saying whose managers are still okay for altcoin with regards to performance Im not talking about who is better. Maybe you are right, bubblealex is much better, I did not say anything about this matter but only mentioned who are still okay. Arteezy still have some good handled projects in the past. So still okay, even his latest short one is good hybrix. So dont easily compared their indifferences. They won't have a chance if no one join their Campaigns don't you think?
They have to grow themselves bigger before starting managing campaign. They have to gain reputation and good standing on forum. Otherwise, any new campaign manager with no good standing on forum should be a big no to participate because scammers themselves creating ICO, managing bounties. If hunters follow this strategy, they will be benefitted and investors will also not be scammed anymore.I have not seen a new campaign managers project to be a good one till now.
The only one thing that bounty detective did right is payment guarantee, I believe this bounty manager was paid tokens even before the bounty Campaign starts, I'm more confidence with this bounty manager than any other right now especially this year
I think the approach we should make is give priority for bounties in this order
1. Projects that pays in tradeable currencies and paid weekly.
2. Ditto but paid at the end of the campaign and the reward escrowed by third party.
3. Ditto but no escrow.
4. Projects that pays in tokens and the reward escrowed by third party.
5. Projects that pays in tokens and no escrow.

This year bounty detective is taking over, starting with hex bounty which brings impressive rewards for bounty hunters this year, bounty detective are still small but they are actually getting better, thanks to them bounty hunting aren't that boring this year 2020
