Same experience as yours in the past and I have one coin I'm holding that can repeat that experienced I hope it will not happen, they locked the coin for bounty hunters til May, hopefully, I can sell it before the coin losses it's value, we really can't escaped from this scenario as a bounty hunters.

Have just read through the dairy of a bounty hunter through this post ,  it's really disheartening  that most of us works and campaign for project only to be used by the by the BM.  The most annoying period is the lock up period with the analysis that it Will help the price of the coin not dump.
We really can't do anything when that happens. We indeed have promoted each project well from the start. And when the token for the bounty is locked it won't cause a dump. Indeed, I now see many bounty hunters who throw tokens at low prices. And that makes prices often dump.

But this is the true  Cheesy Admins are locking bounty tokens and pumping their coin for the first several weeks. When the time comes to unlock rewards of all bounty hunters, the coin suddenly dumps and makes -x5 one day before unlock.

Yes, that's so sad but i think you just unlucky, if you choose great project of course not be like that, And i see your account rank is Sr.Member, better you join in BTC champaign, that's can give you gurantee.

I also join in so many bounty and i think it's okay, we in bear market that's why the price is down, And i always join in bountyhive, GMB and Pizbe is two success project there

I know many bounty hunters can relate with that, some are just unlucky to join that kind of bounty many times and their only choice is just to give up, that's why we should hardly choose what bounty seems good and will fairly pay us in the end

It is well with some bounties. Many of the bounties out there now doesn't really worth hunters efforts. It is either they give very small allocation for bounty hunters, or no trading and hunters will have to wait for so long before they can reap what they have worked for. Meanwhile the family are there looking up to someone.

A typical day is usually bounty hunter Undecided So this is also not the worst option possible. Let's hope that the situation will change for the better.
Bounty hunters are being faced with different experiences nowadays. Some of this experiences are enough for some hunters to be discouraged, most especially those that are coming in newly.
I am also believing for improvements.

You have sumed up the voice of all bounty hunters in your little Post. Bounty hunting was never fruitful especially for low ranked members. Even if they get stakes and the luckily the coins hit the exchanges, it almost worth less.
I always recommend BTC campaigns as you get some real reward for the efforts.
But, anciently the altcoin paying bounties would have provided good gains. But in the present case, btc or listed coin paying bounties are definitely the best. Or not to waste your time and stay away.

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!!!!
Admin: (blocks bounty hunter from Telegram channel).

Trust me guys, I’ve been here before. Are you too? 😂🤣😅

I stand with Ukraine.
Haven't experienced that yet because I'm new in bounty hunting but I pray it will not happen to me it's very depressing to anyone, and will start to ask is this still worth to do bounty hunting with all these issues.

If you are new to this, I suggest you to read this thread carefully, and you'll see that the situation from the OP is not uncommon at all. Unless you are paid additionally in some established currencies for your work, you can end up getting much less than that what you were expecting. Overall I think that if we stopped working for suspicious-looking projects it would be better not only for us but for the crypto community in general.

dude i read your whole story and can't stop laughing, it's a true fact that all of thoose happened to mostly hunter here and i was one of them, after a few month waiting then they said token will be distributed every three month and it was 4 phase so 1 year in total. and it's like you said the token become worthless when it come to my wallet.
to prevent this from hapening BM should clarify to ICO dev about KYC is it needed for hunter or not and if needed then made it in the start of bounty.
also budget for bounty hunter must be put on trusted escrow agent and be released after bounty finished.
Am sure most bounty hunters can relate to the statement above and I think it is about time we find possible ways for bounty hunters to get their needed respect. You said it well, that is the reality involved in bounty hunting at the moment.

We just need to be patient guys. Crypto currencies market is not facing its best times at the moment and I am sure that soon we would see a much better picture, because there are some great events that are going live this year.

You will know when the time comes to you, keep calm and continue doing your task, most of the time rewards will be paid off much higher if you will ignore things and continue believing with what you already knew, the sad part of bounty hunting will be a strong foundations that an be built inside you, learning things in such situations will build you much stronger.

Hire Bitcointalk Camp. Manager @ r7promotions.com
Hunters who are rather choosy and successful in choosing projects continue to participate in the bounty program more out of habit, in the hope that the market will soon recover and everything will be as before. But It is worth noting that the number of useless projects is already overwhelming, and it is obvious that this has a bad effect on investments and rewards. We need certain ways to stop the flow of this garbage.
The only way is to stop promoting them,because bounty hunters join on all the bounties which were lauched and keep supporting them causes the investors to lose their money which makes bad though about the crypto currency amoug the people who ivested newly to a project.

Its as if you are a manager because you know all the tricks lol.. Its sometimes annoying when rules are changed and all you might know the reward system remains the same. You tell them and its like they are doing you a favor.
