Information is important and you must be optimistic about all the terms and conditions. It is most sad to be banned or not issued because of the conditions.

Please ask yourselves... is the coin I’m investing in secure, fast, scalable, great development team and community? If not... that coin isn’t going anywhere. It’s a pump and dump. Having a small supply raises the price but in reality it will never be a “merchant” coin. Invest in the coin that has the ability to be the coin for commerce. Do your research.. invest in the coin that meets that criteria. Don’t go after the advice of an investor who is sitting on a bag waiting for you to buy up the price before they dump.

I have participated and scam airdrops and weak bounty programs as well. Most times bounty programs are not meant to scam people, but just that they don't become successful in their projects or they don't reach the targeted soft cap.

Some time ago I decided to participate in bounty programs. Started with airdrops, twitter and telegram campaigns and later took a look at signature campaigns in bitcointalk.
Created account, reached Jr.Member level and full of optimism applied for the first signature bounty without deep enough researches about the project. Even absence of info about team didn't stop me. How stupid I was.... The ICO turned out to be scam and no desirable tokens received of course Smiley

Do not be so stupid as me, read about project, take a look at the team, read whitepaper and check some ratings. It can save you from wasting you time for 4-8 weeks....

By the way.. how many scam ICOs have you participated?



It's 5 out of 5 for me, so 50/50. I guess it's just part of the unregulated landscape of cryptoverse. No use crying over spilled milk, I always move on to the next bounty. It is what it is.

That is why we should consider first everything that needed including the team who manage the campaign because nowadays there are some groups of campaign that still they introduce scam project at the end the trust of communities will easily drops. So try to notice the team manager, the advisors and the webpage of the project. Through that you will gain some idea whether legit or not. Better luck next time.

That's they should need to do, mostly in ICO project are scam. Need to look at the team behind the project, read the whitepaper, roadmap if it's realistic platforms and also the bounty manager if it's reliable and trusted person.

I've followed a failed project twice. such incidents are frustrating about the failure of projects that have been followed. in bounty indeed all the projects are not all successful there are some projects that fail. therefore we must now be careful in determining the projects to follow in order to avoid this happening again.

I also made some bounty. There is also a lot of no money. It's a waste of time. It's very important to inspect the project before you can do the bounty. I now choose a good project to do. It won't be so blind.

I have been participating in some scam projects also. I did not took as much time as I should to do my research about them, and let me mention that some of them can look sometimes legitimate. Then i started to be more carefully and win more experience to take my decisions.

I only join one campaign does not pay participants, but after that I did not experienced any of scam because I think I careful when I join to campaign . To make sure that campaign pay you look the campaign manager if they check the project carefully before accepting it and campaign manager who manage funds that who are trusted.

The next time you join bounty programs, make sure you did read everything about the project. Don't join just to earn without noticing if some part of the campaigns goes wrong.Sometimes we will not notice that the campaign but the best effective way is to read their whitepaper and join their telegram to be updated ofcourse.

None. Simplest way to find out if project is good is to watch signature spreadsheet and figure out how much people with high ranks taking a part in it. If a lot, it mean that project is at least not a scam. Because people who work here long time, have much more experience in ICO quality investigation.

At least three, it is indeed a waste of time some bounty campaign even extend up to 4 months so better thoroughly check the project, one or two whole days of research than wasting your time and effort for a whole 3 months, but even if the project looks legit it could still stopped their ICO.

I usually take a careful look at the project and if there is anything , and i mean anything that throws me off, i dont go there.
For example, bad quality design, shady product, team from only one shady country.

BUT i managed to get in CENTRA and TBAR,lost a good chunk of tokens which i was holding .
They were a very professional scammers, since a lot people fell for them.

The world of crypto is cruel and unpredictable. If you've just hit a scam once and have been disappointed, you better back off, because in the future you may come back to meet the ICO scam not once only once. I have faced several times with scam ICOs, and have faced several times with failed ICOs. In fact, once also follow the bounty of ICO is quite successful, but got kick from the telegram group which joined the telegram group is the general rule.

This is why the forum is most appreciated, it teaches us more knowledge
In short, the more you use the forum, the more knowledge you acquire and the more bounty offers you get.
So learn to be smart about bounties, and keep working hard; the pay day would and will definitely come.
sooner than you expected, and it could be the most underated token in your wallet.

So far, I haven't participated in any of scam ICOs. Thank God! It's the most thing I am afraid of - to encounter scam ICO. Because just like what you have said, it kind of waste of time. I am picky which bounty I am going to join, but sometimes you cannot avoid it. Sometimes the project looks really great and legit but will end up fraud.

I've followed an ico scam. and it's very disappointing after several months I worked hard to do it. it happened a long time ago, and with this experience, I can make it as a learning in the future to choose an ico, because before choosing an ico we have to really understand with the ico which will be followed, so we also can avoid from scam ico.
