Now there is no special sense to participate in bounty companies, as the time spent on them is not justified. There where crowd - money there is no.

 Bounty hunters are not treated right these days  at all, and some bounty managers are not helping matters,  its like some of them  do hold back some bounty tokens for themselves.  hunters have to go beg them for the reward of the tasks they have carried out before they reluctantly send tokens.

They bring up unnecessary rules that were not there from the beginning of the bounty.
in some cases, hunters will be asked to do  KYC at the end of the bounty and i wonder why this was not mentioned at the beginning.
In any case there are still a few good ones who are fair to hunters and i believe if this bear market ends and market kicks off again hunters will be able to make some profits from the few good project.

That is because so many people are in the bounty campaigns right now, there are people in other make money industry, shifting to bounty hunting and because of this bounty hunting has become overcrowded and of course not to mention those multi-account, it becomes a total mess because of the so many restrictions.

almost one year the bounty has been in decline since the crypto market crashed. this is not a good situation. if this continues and the mechanism of ico is not changed, then ico will definitely die.

Lately i was able to compare those previous data in the previous year 2016,2017,2018 respectively and I found out that doing Bounty Works is degrading You know why?! Because of the unfavorable settings and condition in the Bounty Marketing System.( Such as the implementation of KYC requirements, Shady ICO clients that turn into Exit scam, Danger of Not reaching the SoftCap and Not being paid and the worst is the Long waiting months before Being Paid,) "ICO clients are setting a new norms of Paying Bounty participants, most of the time the reason they are portraying is to "Avoid the dumping Spree" Which is not true and Only minimal compare to the Investors tokens holdings! Thats why I presume that starting 2018 and Beyond we cannot expect fair and favorable Bounty Marketing Results. so we must do something to make it Better. Any suggestion and Opinion is greatly appreciated.
This situation is already presenting itself and it is now so predominant amidst most of the projects that are now lunching.
Some of the project teams have already stated the rules even before the commencement of the bounty.
So many bounty hunters are now discouraged, except for those that are resilient.
I am looking forward to when this situation will change, if it will ever change.

I think the situation is not yet changing for the better. Missed those days that sig campaigns and other bounty programs were paid in btc. When these token paying programs came to light, everyone got the chance to be a bounty manager, even the sloppy ones. And paying mostly their worthless tokens. Though up to the hunter if he will join or not and accept the terms.

I fully agree with you, because this is what is happening. I think that a possible option could be to temporarily stop the introduction of all bounty companies, as this bounty hunters will not lose anything and I think that many will agree to it.

I think it is only the matter of time when bounties are going to recover. If you look at the market between 2016 and 2017, it was almost always raising. There was no such a dramatical fall and people have earned money.

2017 was very good at choosing bounty campaigns. I worked and earned good money. And I almost didn't meet bounty hunters who were unhappy with rewards or projects in general. Therefore, I agree that as soon as the market begins to recover, the bounty campaigns will also become former.

unfortunately the situation for the bounty hunters is becoming difficult, on the one hand are multiplying the ico that require kyc, the scams also are increasing, the value of tokens at the end of the ico is uncertain, we may lose 2/3 months for a few pennies or even without receiving the tokens
Most of the bounties now require a KYC which seems irrelevant because you are not actually buying any tokens when you do a bounty, you are just providing marketing services in exchange for a payment in tokens.

For plus bounty work, we should have better solutions than what we are doing. After the end of the bonus campaign, distributors can divide it into different installments in a certain period. This limits the number of tokens distributed and reduces the ability of bounty hunters to dump.

Yes, it seems that the situation with ICO will not improve significantly yet. In order for it to change for the better, it is necessary to solve the problem of fraud in ICO projects, and this problem will not be solved without state regulation. Well, in order to introduce state regulation of ICO activities, some more time is needed.

I stopped participating in many bounty campaigns. During last year, it was a dream for every bounty hunter to work hard and earn as much as possible. But things have changed now, participants joining only limited number of bounties but still most of the them will end up as non paying.

Bounty hunters play a huge and very important role in promoting the project, but despite this, the hunters are treated poorly. Hunters are used, and then they treat us like garbage. We have no rights. Managers let you ignore us when we ask for help.
We need changes that protect the rights of bounty hunters.

It's fully free market and everybody follows their own incentives. There are very few bounty campaigns now, only 20% of them looks legit and only 5% of them are good for sure. When I hear such claims I'd like to know how to achieve the goal. What real steps should we do to make the situation better?

the bounty mechanism has been running well, it's just that the crypto market is what makes the bounty unlucky and the ico market also falls. the impact is that none of the tokens were released on the market exchange. hopefully the bull run that will make ico will also go up.

The sad fact is that everyone wants a share of the ICO pie and this is why many dubious minded people are starting to organise their own ICOs, this has led to many exit scams and some poorly marketed ICOs that didn't meet their targets.

I think it is not just the project that affects the way how we gain income here in the cryptocurrency space, I guess the number of bounty hunter-increase is also dividing our total income that's just my opinion.

The previous years were undoubtedly profitable mainly because of the favorable market conditions then. It was so profitable that even a shit ICO would earn you 500$ just by joining it's bounty. Now, that isn't the case. In addition to the unfavorable market condition, the ICO market is already saturated and no new money is flowing into this space which is why I think this will indeed persist indefinitely.

It is our choice to do bounty campaigns for projects. So it is our duty to do our due diligent. Not all projects are intended to be scams right from the beginning some fail for various reasons beyond their control.
Always be this way, it's us who will decide supporting ico project and it should be us to sort things one by one, those project who intentionally
scammed both investors and bounty hunters will not stop until participants will no longer patronize their works, if we are serious about this
we have to be more selective and always use our own deep study about new projects before we invest/help promoting them.

This is the very pessimistic post I've ever read about Bounty. I am not saying that don't have a point but the most important thing is that we have to point out also the side of the project team why they are doing these precautionary methods. They will not react if they don't experience thing that triggers them what to do. I suggest we better focus on the solution. And because we are part of the Bounty Hunters population. Let us be part of the solution and not of the problem.
It should indeed appear much thought it better to at least help crypto for the better. but every pessimistic that occurs naturally not without reason as it never received the results in the long term. and that will survive are those who are convinced that the bounty still has a future when all look bad and fall like this time.

It because of the growth. If more people knows you can earn money by joining bounty, so the bounty rewards might get lesser or even get zero value. So does the ICO. More people know ICO is easier to make, more easier to turn to an exit scam.

But I still do not understand, there are many ICO that have been successful and they have achieved hardcap or approximating it. But when it comes to bounty, they always delay and don't intend to pay. Some bounty locked tokens of bounty in 6 months or 1 year, It's horrible for bounty right now

Now, without addressing the issue of eliminating fraud in ICO projects, this type of activity is unlikely to ever achieve previous success, and without it, bounty hunters will not see good earnings.

We know that many projects apply the KYC to protect the project itself but the truth, I think they are collecting a big personal data from the bounty hunters and the investor, so if they do another project, they can call them back and join in the new project. I think there will be a changing of the ICO project and it will look different than before, but the ICO itself will still exist. But lets we wait what will happen in this year, so we know if the ICO still exist or not.

Ignore those ICO bounties or do the ones where there is no softcap or it's been already reached.

If they can't manage the bounty and have fear of dumping then do not do bounty campaigns at all. First they start the campaign get the promotion and blame hunters later on.

"To avoid the dumping" and what a stupid opinion while at the same time they are not wanna wasting their raised money to listing their token in a medium or even a bigger exchange site to get the big daily trade volume. They must put this one their head, exchange and volumes are playing the main role in this story. so many incompetence developers or "kids"?
I guess they are thinking about how much money they can earn (profit) from investors.
Any weakness in their stages are easily blamed "Avoid the dumping spree" and is surprised that many investors blame the hunter.

You are right the condition has turned from bad to worse, how worse it is well even if the coin/token manage to get into the market, the price is way below its ICO price, so you are hoping to get at least $500 from bounty hunting but when it hit the market, the price of the token you've got is only $50 from your expected $500.

you are right, even though bounty hunters play a very important role in the success of a project, imagine if bounty hunters no longer want to promote the project they are running ..
Yes, bounty hunters play a major role to promote the project towards the investors. Because of the bounty hunters the project are getting spread towards everyone within very limited period of time. So if they stop working then team will have to face many consequences regarding to the promotion of the project.

Bounty managers need to reassign their terms to make the conditions more effective like accepting participants only with good quality post and paying them in bitcoin and limit the participants to particular level and avoid stake based result which will cause the scam and useless ICO to go away.

You are totally overthinking it because the main reason behind the degrading of the bounty-hunting work is the fail of ICOs business itself, these days you can hardly find a successful ICO and even if you did you will find that it was an ICO that got an extent for a couple of times to run at the end for a total of 6 months+ at least, I know that even the success ICO delay the listing of their tokens and that is affecting investors too not Bounty-hunting alone, and believe it or not even tho bounty-hunting payments should normally not affect prices but it probably does at these times because if you have no one that is willing to buy your token/coin then even 1% will affect its price.

I absolutely agree with you. Bounty hunters are now in a demeaning situation, because the ICO team dictates its own terms of joining their project and they are obviously unequal. This became especially noticeable after, after the end of ICO, KYC began to be massively tested, which actually turned into a game whether the ICO teams would be able to deceive bounty hunters and not pay out the earned tokens or not.
From this situation, I see only one way out - government regulation of ICO activities, where there will be ordered issues of rights and obligations of the parties. Now it is still a “wild” ICO.

for reward trouble during bounty payment it can be solved by placing the reward at the start of bounty to trusted escrow agent and date released was exactly as in the aggrement on bounty thread and only if the project reached it softcap.
as for kyc to bounty hunter the project and bm should set a rule that only hunter who got certain amount of token required to provide kyc at the end of bounty campaign.
for SCAM ICO it's hard to distinguished, a regulated for ICO was needed to prevent scam ICO being born.

I think bounty hunters has no problem with projects marketing
Bounty hunters have less problem about kyc too

The main concern is not been paid because bounty hunters do good research and atleast 70% of the time avoid fake projects

It's no secret that now there are big problems both in the market of crypto-currencies in general and with bounty campaigns, but what do you think we can do to improve the situation and get a decent reward for participating in bounty campaigns? I am ready to go through KYC and follow all the rules, but in return I receive almost nothing ...

yes maybe goodness and ugliness begin to open for those of you who are tired of looking for a gift that really, yes nothing can be blamed everyone walks and participates on its own, it is very time consuming to follow it and a lot of fraud everywhere it depends on you all to choosing the right project, no wonder the current conditions all seem uncontrollable in circulation, patience is demanded in cases like this because whatever the conditions are cheating or anything will happen then always be patient, don't be provoked to become an impromptu person.

Easy bounty rules will be vulnerable to fraud, because the participants will likely compete to cheat to get big results and then do the dumper. This also will not benefit all parties.

Bounty managers are people who should be able to manage this problem, and therefore need a bounty of managers who are indeed good and have a good reputation to avoid cheating.

It hardly depends on the ICOs market situation and as soon as we would enter the new bullish trend, everything will recover. If ICOs would collect their hard caps, bounty hunters would guaranteed become higher rewards.

That's the topic here, we are bound to the big risk and we should work knowing the risk of providing our KYC to their systems and Knowing that not all of the project was real. In this case, the prevention will start when we choose which to join and support.

The amounts given out to bounty hunters usually pales in comparison to what investors purchase.  Not only that most investors get discounts by buying in bulk.  The discount is the spread.  Many of those entities have the kind of money needed to make good returns just off of the discount percentage.  Instant profit.

Also, amongst the bounty hunters there are always dumpers.  Fact of life.  Just don't be one of them.  When the crypto paradigm hits, all they will have are good stories about cryptocurrencies, and will have to resort to conning people in order to get anywhere when the shift begins.  All those who held for the rainy day will be sitting back looking forward to a new life.

All I know is that I know nothing.
eventually bounty hunting will also be replaced by another form of money giveaway to advertise some shitcoin. that is how the altcoin market has always worked. all these 2000-2500 altcoins could have never been pumped at all if they weren't paying some people to advertise for them. sometimes they pay a lot more so they can get pumped more and sometimes they pay less so they are pumped less. the form of payments change but the principle has always been the same!

I feel you guys . i was once a bounty hunter and i started exactly on the year 2017 but even on that time , bounty hunting is really a hard job because i dont know which campaign is good and now 2019 i think they are still the same because there are still scams and other frauds  existed .  

The only solution that i know is to quit joining a bounty .  you guys better try it out because when the time comes that no one is applying on a bounty ,  bounty campaigns will be also slowly dying  . in the future ,    the company wont have a choice to pay on btc and eth because users here will only join if they pay this way  .

Yes in 2017 bounty hunter possible to earn good reward because alot of project hasbeen received hard cap and the token price going up above ICO price. And in 2018 the situation changed drastic, even very difficult to earn $100 reward amonth. The factor is low quality of the ICO and the project.

That is not at all. The project team has other decision after a few months running bounty then they said this bounty is not effective and reduce too much reward. They even give us many bull shit reasons to decline paying us. Bounty hunter is a non-respected work now.
you are right, even though bounty hunters play a very important role in the success of a project, imagine if bounty hunters no longer want to promote the project they are running ..

Bounty hunting is directly tied to ICO success so if the ICO market is shot, then bounty hunting is shot.
I think it is fair to say that the ICO market is completely wrecked now.
I wonder if it will ever make a comeback?
I believe crypto will not be in this slump forever.
In fact, I believe that we will eventually see new all time highs.
But I think 2018 was enough to completely upturn the ICO market on its head.

The days of profitable bounty hunting are over.
I now just do it only casually and am looking for new ways to supplement my portfolio.
I am thinking of doing a DAA or something.

One of the campaigns that took so long to compute and to distribute is Bitmillex, the campaign is over and they told that they will only distribute after a month of token listing but there is no news or effort for them to list their coin to other exchange, since they are an exchanged themselves they don't care listing it on other exchanges, so bounty hunters will have to wait next year or even get nothing with this rule

The market is not what it used to be especially the regulations. ICO projects has to adapt or adjust also to the current market conditions and ICO regulations.

unfortunately the situation for the bounty hunters is becoming difficult, on the one hand are multiplying the ico that require kyc, the scams also are increasing, the value of tokens at the end of the ico is uncertain, we may lose 2/3 months for a few pennies or even without receiving the tokens

I think it will take some time to normalize and it will normalize with the overall market so technically everything related to crypto is linked with the market performance and more importantly the market recovery some other factors include volume and interest in the market from investors, i think finally market situation is going to change and improve gradually from now on as there are great news lined up this year for crypto so stay positive bounty participants will also get the fair share for sure.

ICO & services who runs campaigns/bounties in which they avoid to put the bounty money in escrow's hands should have to be marked as potential scammers.

I am not in favor to the title of this post. This is just my opinion. Why? It is kinda negative declaration of what will happen. I don't want to claim that we should expect that something bad is going to happen. But I think it is the privilege of the TS to do whatever that pleases him and I respect that.Be positive and be grateful.

To do the work as a Bounty we have to be really strong mentally because this year most of the failed ico even though bounty always follows according to ico, even we are not paid just relying on voluntary work.

Now, the situation with the general state of the cryptocurrency market is simply very unfavorable, and this directly affects the activities of ICO projects. In addition to this, many problems for bounty hunters are posed by the KYC verification, which was invented by the ICO teams, especially if it is carried out at the end of the ICO or even after its completion. We spend a lot of time getting information about its progress and still, in the end, in many cases we cannot pass it, because the ICO teams are no longer interested in this and they themselves create various additional obstacles, although objective obstacles and so much because that there is no uniform form of its passage and many of us cannot provide the required documentary evidence due to differences in national laws and other reasons. There can be only one way out - government regulation of ICO activities.

Doing bounty work now requires you to spend a lot of time to learn about the project, as well as the effort to perform more tasks, and the money received will not be as much as one year ago.

"To avoid the dumping" and what a stupid opinion while at the same time they are not wanna wasting their raised money to listing their token in a medium or even a bigger exchange site to get the big daily trade volume. They must put this one their head, exchange and volumes are playing the main role in this story. so many incompetence developers or "kids"?

Doing bounty work to one project is a choice and no one can force us to do it, the reason why we are doing it is because we see some potential in that project and hope that we can gain money out of it. The fact that 2017 was a better year for ICO's it's because thats the time btc and all other cryptocurrency was in its ATH and a lot of investors are doing FOMO because of that crazy run unlike 2018 where a lot of investor are thinking twice whether they will still invest or pull out their money and wait for another chance.
