Sometimes I find myself being added to Telegram groups where they are doing bounty campaigns for new coins but at the end of the day, people will start complaining that the project is dead. In most cases I exited from the groups immediately I find myself there because I feel they are prone to defrauding people.
This makes me to wonder if bounties really pay.

In the past when there were lot of projects during ICO period we have chance to earn but not most of them will take lot of work from you and at the end either don't pay you off or you will get some tokens that will not have Market value at the time of selling.So for me it's not good choice to enter these bounty campaigns if you are looking to make some money as you won't make it.

Similar questions have been raised severally here, one thing I understand is that it's hard to say about a bounty campaign that would pay hunters or not. And when we talk of payment, it's a payment that can be tradable and gives their hunters a reasonable amount and not just a shittoken that would occupied space in your address. That's why it's very risky to join a bounty campaign because there's no assurance or guarantee it will pay, you can only join those campaign that pays with stablecoin and is common with @bountydetective.

No one could tell because they are the ones who would really know if they would be paying up or a legit one or just some scam project just disguising just to make themselves look legit and then
later on scam. We could even see some shit looking projects ending up on paying up its participants when it comes to bounty and there are legit looking ones ends up on becoming
a scam and this is why its really hard to point up fingers.Do they really pay? Yes they do but comparing the success percentage to those who got paid and to those who arent
then we do see a huge significance when it comes to numbers.

95% of them doesn't pay and owners just want free advertising to their project then leave if they failed or even succeed since they can't afford to list their tokens to be listed on expensive exchange. Also 5% chance that they paid but don't expect to get good pay cuts because mostly if they got listed on shit exchanges the value shrunk down because many of its early investors or words the devs are dumping it to secure their profits.

I don't know how much the percentage is (maybe 95% or more), but I agree that most of them didn't pay because of varied reasons.
Not only because of they fail, in most cases the projects are indicated as scams. Scammers just use the bounty program to attract many investors, then they just leave after they get enough money from investors. Well, there is a small chance to find good projects, many just waste our time because of shit values of the tokens or even no value at all.

I think if someone always seeks sure way of getting tokens etc, It's better to spent some small money and invest, maybe even following events, nowadays there's always requirement for small amount of money in order for you to gain much more.
It's like how in binance platform if you hold BNB you have bigger chance of getting some rewards in form of other tokens.
If it's airdrops and etc, of course many of them would have bigger chance of not paying for the simple fact that it's all trial and errors. It is known that majority of new projects are gonna be failing.
Therefore you shouldn't think too much of these airdrops and bounty in general.

I'm trying to find a decent bounty for last few days and it feels like impossible. As far as I am aware of the Pay depends on your Rank as well which being Highest rank gets paid the highest. Also if someone could suggest me a Bounty i'd really appreciate it.

Choose the best bounty campaign, most of them are paying but not all so if you are going to participate make sure that it is being escrowed and the manager is reputable. Though paying you with their own token might be ok, there’s still no guarantee for the value of that token so make sure you are ready for that risk or else better not to participate on a bounty anymore. You’re lucky if you find a bounty that pain thru Bitcoin and USDT, that’s a sure money already.

In recent times, it is quite a high risk to participate in bounties because most bounties do not pay participants unless the bounty is escrow, and even when the bounty is escrow, the value of the coin/token they pay in some cases are quite very poor, in some cases it may take years to list the token (if it will be listed at all). At the end of the day, you have lost your time and resources which you could have channeled elsewhere for your benefit. Only very few bounties run by reputable bounty managers pay promptly and some times with coins like Bitcoin, USDT as the case may be. Ensure you carry out detailed research before participating in bounties or else you loose your time and resources.

No, especially on telegram. All these bounty campaigns are either a scam or an attempt to increase the audience and attract some liquidity to a dead or new unknown project. Do not waste your time on it, much less your money. Any bounty campaign in which you are invited to participate is a potential scam or phishing attack, this has long been practiced in Discord. If someone invites you to participate in any raffle, then expect a catch, you will certainly try to cheat.

My thoughts.

If bounties, that are good sources of income, exist, then they definitely not on this forum (if we talk about bounties, but not signature campaigns with BTC payment). Havent seen bounty reward amount praise posts for years. Even during bull market there were no bounties with decent payment, not to mention bounties during current market.

I've checked bounty forum section and what I see. It is either millions of nameless tokens, which equals zero value to me, as such projects never get listed. Or 3-5k bucks budget for hundreds of hunters, which is also close to nothing.

I think I've already asked (not exactly in this topic) to give an example of a good bounty, but still my request is unanswered Cheesy

If you compare it with now, bounty campaigns other than signatures will certainly have a small allocation, because the allocation for social media and other bounty campaigns is not too large and market conditions also do not allow it.

If you fast forward to 2016-2017 you will find many bounty campaigns that provide bigger rewards, you will never even get from the current bounties.
I once got rewarded from an article campaign with a total reward of about $ 3k because the project was successful and was listed in the top market. there were many other similar projects with quite good progress at that time. But for now, it won't provide proper compensation, it even tends to be worthless and we're still waiting for the continuation of project development whether it's listing to the market or not.

In most cases, they don't, they'll just give you a bunch of shit coins stuck in your wallet, like forever. Roll Eyes

But most trusted manager that's handling bounty camps do give a legit pay, it's either you have to accept the payment before or after the campaign is done. It does work in the past though, but I don't know now since those previous manager isn't handling altcoins nowadays. You just have to risk and do your own research if you want to try it though but make sure that the manager handling is a reputable one in this forum.

That is true, there are a lot of legit managers who will ask for the money beforehand, and that means if they take like 4 weeks of pay, then they will be capable of simply just working towards making sure that they could end up with 1 month of work for sure, without any doubt, because it's already paid, or at least in escrow.

On the other hand, if we are talking about a situation where it's just tokens that these projects created? That will always be not liked so much and that will be an issue, because you could work hard for them and end up with absolutely nothing, that is a very important deal and you should avoid those type of bounties if you can.

of the many bounty programs that I have participated in since 2018, only a few did not pay project participants, for the various reasons they said. but there are more bounty projects that pay their participants than those that don't. I think bounties that don't pay their participants are just because they want to take advantage of the many people who work for them, or they are the bounty trying to deceive many people.

There are two things about this that I would like to point out. First of all, there is always a chance that you could have participated in the good ones and there could be plenty of bad ones out there, just because you didn't join the bad ones doesn't mean that they do not exist.

Secondly, there is paying and there is paying. What I mean by this is that, you could work for a month to get a bounty payment, and they can pay you with tokens, but one of them paid you tokens that worth 100 dollars and the other could pay you tokens worth 30 cents. If you are not getting proper payment, dollar worth being worth to your time, then you are not really paid, you were given free money that didn't cost anything to them.

Do bounties really pay? It depends on the project and its reputation. Some bounty projects pay on time and according to the predetermined schedule, while other projects may not pay at all. Therefore, it's important to research and ensure that the project has a good reputation and a track record of paying out rewards before participating in a bounty program.

In general, bounty programs can be a good source of income for those with specific skills, such as marketing or software development. However, it's important to remember that not all bounty programs pay out, and that investing in cryptocurrencies and blockchains carries high risk and may not be suitable for everyone.

I've even found many bounties in the past that paid full rewards to hunters and most of the projects I participated in were successful. But for now, many bounty projects are just a waste.

Well i already experienced joining different bounty campaign some projects are paying and some are not, for now i only joined the campaign that manage by a trusted bounty managers to avoid wasting of time, but sometimes good managers manage a campaign that is scam or not paying maybe there are campaigns that is legit and turn into a scam after a couple of year and now i considered bounty as a gambling and it depends on your luck on every projects that you promoted.

Maybe that's one good sign, the project should be managed by a well known and trusted bounty manager. But if I'm not mistaken, there are projects as well who turn to be scam even if it being run by a reputable member of the community. And when they accused, they can't answer because they themselves fall victim to the project. But the bad part is that they got negative tag. Anyhow, that how's the bounty project ever since, majority are not paying or if they are going to pay, it will took a long time and even chances the payment scheme and lower it.

Not actually to say that bounties are scams OP but we can't deny also that the majority of them are failures and scams.

Bounties are good in the past years, many people got crazy with this but suddenly it was changed because this has become the den of thieves/scammers and they use this strategy to trick aggressive and greedy investors. You can still participate in bounties but never expect money from your hard work because they won't appreciate it.

- If you are referring to the altcoins bounty, it seems that only 1-5% pay there, that depends on the Bounty Manager who handles the campaign. Because if the BM that handles the altcoin bounty campaign is known, the chances are high that the participants will be paid early.

But if those bounty managers are not known in the altcoins bounty, the chances are also quite high that they don't pay, and usually, most of them are just hoping and it takes a few months until they don't make the participants feel like helping the campaign they touched.

It's my first time hearing that there are bounty campaigns on telegram groups. As far as I know referral campaigns are the one who is actively running on those telegram channels but I don't experience or saw anything other than that. Telegram platform is notoriously used by scammers and frauds in committing their act and people know how scammers utilize that messaging app. Don't waste your time into task that they are requesting. They just want to source someone to get the job done for free. It's hard to assume that those campaign will pay you as they promised. There are bounty campaign here and yeah some of those campaign don't pay their participants, What more on telegram platform where scammers has nothing to lose since accounts there are pretty much disposable.
