all the scenes from the conversation were exactly the same as some of the ICOs that I participated in and ended this year.
You are very experienced with SCAM projects and end up with shitcoin.
let's discuss so that this year we can avoid such projects.
a very interesting post. learning for all of us who have been trapped with such events.

To all crypto bounty hunters who can hardly relate:
Situation: ICO started their main sale and will last 2 months and offers bounty program. ICO price was $0.5.
Bounty Hunter: I will join their signature campaign! Let’s do this!
After 1 month....
Admin: We decided to pause the campaign because our legal advisor suggests for our product to be fully compliant with the country’s regulations.
Bounty Hunter: (facepalm)
After 1 month....
Admin: Good news bounty hunters! We will now resume our bounty campaign. Since ICO was extended for a month, the same goes to our bounty campaign. Happy bounty hunting!
Bounty Hunter: Yippee!!!
After 1 month (one day before the ICO ends)....
Admin edits the ICO countdown timer and replied: Due to overwhelming demand, we decided to extend the ICO to another 2 months!
Bounty Hunter: Whaaaaat??? (But decides to continue the signature campaign).
After 2 months....
Admin: Congrats bounty hunters! Our ICO is successful! Here’s the final spreadsheet!
Bounty hunter looks at the spreadsheet and replied: 1,000 stakes for me! Yippee! I’m excited for my tokens to be distributed.
Admin: Good for you! We will distribute the tokens within 2 weeks!
Bounty Hunter: All right! My hardwork finally pays off in 2 weeks! Can’t wait!
After 2 weeks....
Admin: I received an advise from our legal advisor that bounty hunters must complete KYC process. Since we have an influx of bounty hunters, approving your KYC might take days to weeks.
Bounty Hunter: (sigh) Oh well, it’s better than nothing. I’ll just do it anyway. (Logs in to site and submits KYC verification).
After 3 weeks....
Bounty Hunter receives an email that his KYC was approved and was excited, however.....
Admin: We would like to congratulate those bounty hunters who have passed their KYC. Unfortunately, we had a meeting with the development team. It has come to a conclusion that our team voted for bounty hunter tokens to be locked and will be distributed after 6 months to avoid massive dumping in the exchange.
Bounty Hunter: Admin I HATE YOU!!!!
After 6 months....
Admin: Bounty hunter tokens are now unlocked. You can now transfer your tokens from the dashboard to your ETH wallet. Thank you!
Bounty hunter transfers his tokens to his ETH wallet. After successfully transferred, he goes to Etherdelta exchange where he can trade his token to BTC or ETH. Unfortunately, the token’s buying orders are empty. Only selling orders appear with the lowest bid at $0.001 per token.
Bounty hunter: F*** you admin!!!!! My efforts are wasted coz’ they’re worth shitcoins!!!!

The situation is so typical that it's not even worth commenting on it, just do a...facepalm))) But still we have to TRY to do something about it. It's very disappointing when such situations happen and more sadly is the fact that we can't appropriately because we have no power to sue scamming admins and so on. I wish regulation in this sphere will be applied soon so that bounty hunters are defended somehow.

This is literally perfect play story for every bounty hunters around the forum. Yes, this is what happens and this is what the sequence is.
Currently there are more than 15 to 16 bounties in my pending list who are yet to pay me off but guess what its been ages since the ICO started and ended. Lolz.
These people will always lure you with quick rich money style and will never pay us. Sometime I start to feel that it is the same team who is running more than 100's of bounties and looting everyone on their campaigns. It's real shit man.
Guys I participated in 2 baunty campaigns newly and I have to tell you that it is not pleasantly surprised. The campaign managers and the team are trying in every way to not pay a reward for bounty thinking of the new conditions for obtaining tokens. it's always necessary to fill out a new Google form so now it's plausible to wait for the project to exit and register on their platform to get tokens there. but in the beginning all the conditions were simple and the reward for the campaign had to be transferred to the ethereum MEW wallet.

available around, there's really messing with hunters.
Thanks for giving me the time reminiscing and remembering those coins that I still have without any value now.
This experience isn't funny, imagine a bounty hunter putting his time and effort in every aspect of the campaign just to make some cool money, only to get this as the result, recently i joined a bounty, just the day i thought is my last day, i went to submit my task on the bounty thread only for me to see the bounty has been extended for 60days. What ? I just said to myself, it is the end for me, can't waste my effort that way. At the end bounty hunters will be the last to receive token price must have fallen after the wait.
This is why it would be better for bounty hunters to be paid in BTC or Eth
This has long been a big problem for bounty hunters. And now a far-fetched check of KYC plays a very important role in non-payment, which is deliberately carried out at the end of the ICO or even several months after the end of the ICO. During this time, we must constantly read their telegrams in order not to miss the announced procedure for conducting a KYC audit. Otherwise, all our work for many months may be in vain. This is why it would be better for bounty hunters to be paid in BTC or Eth
Yeah i have experienced the same especially last year or so has been exactly like this for most of the campaigns and i think it is unethical because teams are just exploiting the bounty hunters i have even seen bounty hunters being insulted by the team members after the ico and bounty campiagn is over which is condemnable act.
Here one could add a lot of plots about how additional ordeals and humiliations are first exposed to bounty hunters before not everyone can pass the KYC test. If, for example, you are required to confirm the utility bills in my name, and they are issued to another family member, and the surname may be different, or I just study and live not at the place of registration. Yes, life situations can be mass. However, we are trying to put in a certain framework. This can be expressed in a different way: looking for reasons not to pay the earned tokens to bounty hunters.And we are offered to do our work first, and only then they will consider whether we are suitable for paying for it.

Been there! I can imagine myself complaining about that but still since THEY said that it is free anyway that we only invested our precious time we have to follow their rules. Actually they have a point about changing rules even budget for bounty but they have to understand that without us theyre nothing as this is one way to ensure their success.
This is what the bounty hunting industry is now, there is not much in crypto today, more efforts are wasted just through some projects that aren't really promising and not complying to their hunters what a shame.

You will disappointed when faced with bounty campaign have running about one or two month but paused, you have learn more with some bounty campaign project before joining their campaign, like check how much their token sold, raised soft cap or not.
i can only say, unfortunately i have also experienced something like that. i have to wait forever for the payment and everything is delayed, but the best is when you get the tokens and they are not worth anything. 
its happen to almost projects now.developers prefer and focus developting their MVP than distributing bounty reward that should make price dumped.by deliver product to their investors they believe price could stable.

Aahhaha, yeah, true story, mate. Unfortunately in bounties there aren't any guarantee about reward and so on. You can simply waste time. I heard media protocol bounty was like 7 month and finally they scammed even contributors!
lol, what a funny story. This should make people stop joining bounty hunters because they are just wasting their time and effort doing their jobs. Yes, it is a freelance job but you don't know the worth of the future token.
Feels bad man. I've just recently started participating in bounty campaigns, I hope things change for the better.
I think behavior like that should also tell investors about how willing projects are to stick to their promise.
And smart investors wouldn't give people like those described any money.

I was in similar situations too. It is very unpleasant to participate in such a campaign and do not really get anything valuable. This is one of the main risks of bounty.
You very accurately described my participation in one bounty companies. I think we've all been there. Unfortunately now it happens with almost every project. I is hoped that in 2019 the situation may change for the better.
Haha. It's very funny and true. The bounty situation is already turning into memes. 
But I still have hopes for 2019. This should change, but it is unknown in what direction. Perhaps we see the latest bounty projects and in the future this direction will gradually die.
