Rewards related things are depend on projects. If projects are good then you'll earn good amount. Even if you hold those altcoins, you'll earn more if they pump. But when bear run was dominating in crypto market, then you shouldn't had expected good rewards from projects cause these altcoins were in touble because of dump. Now market is growing and some good bounties already have come with good rewards and hope this is start of good time. Don't blame manage. They are hired for managing promotional sheets only. Nothing else

That is depends on project team how they wanna get promoted their project and so is instructed by them to bounty manager. So bounty manager have less power to handle such things except sheet checking. Thats the reason we have seen unlimited participation for limited rewards and get a little amount at the end. Besides still bear run in on the way, that's most of team delay their project. That's why you will found a lot of bounties from bounty sector but we are having less legit bounty but waves of bull run is showing its.presence. so hope legit projects will come soon
For me, following this year's bounty, you have to be careful so you don't waste time, many of the current coin project bounties don't have a price yet or may have a price but it's not commensurate with our performance. maybe for this year there are several bounties that are the hope of all participants because of the support of the upcoming bull season and this is the target of the project founders.

working on a bounty can also be seen from market conditions, because this is based on my experience, at that time in Q1 2021 the bounty I worked on paid 100$ a month but when the tokens were distributed the estimate I got was 1400$ because the market was going up, so my tokens also increased .

You should research in Bounty section where there are many bounties who are running bounties of $500, $1000, $5000, $10000, $15000 dollars. This is not logical at all because it is a very small amount where unlimited hunter can work. So after a few months of work you get $2, $5, $10, $30, $50.


I also sometimes feel it, sometimes I get maximum work results and sometimes minimal results but I still enjoy it. On the other hand, it is also necessary to choose a manager who already has a reputation and we are also required to choose a good project before participating, apart from the manager's employment rights, I don't think that needs to be thought about because in another realm, only we as participants carry out and follow the campaign rules according to the direction of a manager.

In the past few crypto winters, I've noticed a scarcity of projects. Many hunters are eager for opportunities, overlooking rewards or even the bounty manager's reputation. Some turn bounty hunting into a full-time job, but with fewer jobs available, they grab anything they find. Sadly, I've seen hunters resort to using multiple accounts to boost their meager rewards. It's like a job market with fewer positions, pushing people to take whatever they can, even if it means using multiple identities. The struggle is real for bounty hunters navigating the sparse landscape in these crypto winters.

No one asks you to join in a bounty and I don't think any bounty has really worth in 2023 so just don't participate at all but signature campaign is something that pays you in bitcoin and you are guaranteed to receive the rewards every week.

It has long been no secret that bounty work is an extremely unpredictable activity. Often involves taking risks and investing time and effort without a guaranteed return. It is impossible to predict what you will earn as a result, everything is much simpler for managers, they know what they will receive as a result, the remuneration suits them.

I think participating in bounty campaign by hunters should purposely based on the fact that the token being promoted would be successful project in the long run that is why hunters should be very careful and do diligent research before promoting a project, in 2018 many tokens that were promoted by bounty hunters were successful and rewarding because the crypto market thrived that period such that when many of those tokens when listed in an exchange their prices was very reasonable thus hunters who desire to sell or dump their tokens for Bitcoin or USDT did so to earn some decent profits for their efforts unfortunately now the market hasn't been good so it's hard earn to good money as a bounty hunter.

I had to go down to the bounty section and try to understand more about it. I also saw a thread by someone regarding to this same bounty I guess it is now runned by scam managers or it's failure is from the project. I went through some of the project thread and also joined their groups, I understand why the hunters keep complaining, is it difficult for the managers to pay the hunters very well, they worked for it and deserve to be paid.
At a point I feel like the managers of those campaign feel less concern about this hunters and do not consider them when choosing any project to manage, they just accept any one and bring to hunters to manage and assure them they get paid $40K worth the tokens, why not in stable currencies, after the hunters might have worked for a month or so then and you see the project make enough sales from the hardwork of this hunters, the project often gets rug then they are left with nothing. I believe this managers are paid in stable currency that is why they feel less concern.

Where did you get such information that bounty managers get good money anyway? If the bounty manager receives payment for his work in project tokens, which as a result are worthless, then they, as well as bounty hunters, are wasting their time.

You may know there are many ways to make money from crypto so you don't just have to do bounty. So you can refrain from bounty if you want because it is true that at this time the amount of good new projects is less so bounty is less and not all projects are willing to manage bounty. Only newbies are doing bounty because they don't know that now money is not available from bounty. However you are welcome that you should plan other ways like crypto investment and long time holding so that you can get easy profit. On the other hand if you do trading then there is money to be made daily.

Everything can't be blamed on the bounty manager, but it goes back to the devs who gave the work to the BM itself, where they entered into a work agreement regarding the total funds allocated to the bounty itself, but sometimes most projects that don't do escrow often don't pay the hunters, so If you want to take part in the bounty, look for one that states escrow, even if the results are not optimal, you will definitely get a reward, and avoid social media campaigns because this often wastes our time, working every day but the income does not match our performance.

The bounty managers may have their own faults but sometimes some of the problems do not arise from their own part .There are few legit projects that run bounty programs now most of the ones we are having here are scam projects. Some of the few good projects that still run the bounty program refuse to pay the hunters at the end . The rising number of participants also leads to very low payment after weeks of work .So I don't really can attribute all the problems to the bounty managers alone there are many other factors that contribute apart from them.

Looks like you are assuming that a BM is making good money while the hunters are not getting enough. A BM is an individual who is getting the bounty for bounty hunters and he is also responsible for the development of a particular startup development in reference to its reach through digital marketing.

Most hunters have been using this kind of earning with malice. As they enter with the purpose of making money and in the end use tactics that only harm the reputation of the BM and destroys any projects ambition.

Bounty hunters should understand that a project handled by any BM has only one objective to generate revenue for themselves. If that objective is not achieved they come up with excuses which are hurting the BM professionally.

That is why before pointing fingers on the BM check what you have done as Bounty hunter to get into that position.

Bounty managers don't care about hunters earning, they are only focused on their income, BM received their management fees in weekly basis or advanced If i'm wrong then correct me. Bounties are now worthless in terms of scam projects, low budget, unlimited participant. But managers didn't force you to join on their campaigns it's your own choice.

It doesn't matter how many dollar payments come from the bounty. The big thing is payment assurance. Because if you participate in 30 bounties and get paid even $10 each, you will still get $300. But sadly you won't get more than 3/4 payment. Scammers are taking advantage from some careless bounty managers. So you can participate in the bounty of some good managers like sujonali1819, CryptopreneurBrainboss, julerz12, BountyDetective etc.
Bounty section is mostly fully of bad management. We need to understand what we are doing and how to stay safer than just joining any random bounty with the aim we are going to get paid. Their are managers that are only interested in getting their money without caring about the workers whether they get paid or not. We should go for reliable bounty management which we know that they normally pay their workers than joining a bad bounty. Many bounties do not pay because of the reckless management.

No one is forcing you to join any campaign. If you think that the payout is not enough for your efforts then don't work with them and also it is not the forum that is the owner of the project. This forum is open to everyone and anyone can start promoting their project by obeying the forum rules. Also fully depending on the forum for earnings is a very dangerous move because what will happen if there isn't any campaigns in the forum for a few months? What will you do at this time to earn money?

Yeah since multiple factors are involved here, like how does the team wants to promote the project and their target audience is through BTT forum they just wants to make their presence felt here. However, as a bounty manager one should consider these factors in mind whether the project is genuine or they just wants to run away with investor's money and waste bounty hunters time or some visibility here in this forum.T

here are manager like Yahoo who have set rules for bounty and they do it on their terms a don't let the team patronize the bounty. Unlimited slots are a big no before affecting the bounty project as either the team don't have clear direction or you will not even receive $1 after weeks of hardwork.

I would partially blame new bounty managers who offer services for free for payments through the bounty token itself, there was a time wher the payment for bounty manager should be in BTC, ETH or USDT only, this has to be changed as paying through BTC or ETH for bounty management should never be a big deal any genuine projects.

That's true that bounty manager is getting more profit by managing bounty and he deserves that. You feels that finding bounty is easy task than go for it and talk to different projects, I believe that you will not get a bounty of 100$ because it's need previous experience, good community and convincing marketing manager for a bounty skills. Once you hired , you have to do saveral task like designing thread, checking POA of each users (500+) and then every week check report link to check each user work which is tough task.

Many users got very good reward from bounty and this why you will see many hunters still joining the compaign. If you see previous some good bounty like combo, biokript and other bounties then you will see each user got 20$+ reward. You have to choose compaign like video, article for better reward. problem is not with bounties but with our research. we should research about project before joining any bounty and join only project we fell will give better profit.

I think making your skills in posting quality makes more difference than hunting bounties. After all bitcoin paying campaigns are paying in "bitcoin" the holy grail and the numero uno of the crypto world. What else would you want to collect more than that? Any altcoin out there is a small fry to bitcoin and majority of them will be washed away in the next few years, so no reason to hope big for them either.

While someone may argue that a certain altcoin might be the next bitcoin, I have been hearing this argument since then time I came to the forum and I am yet to see any.

You can't earn much working in the bounty, those days are gone. The amount of time divided by the amount of profit will signal that this activity is not profitable. Especially now is not the best time for altcoins, the industry is in hibernation and many coins are losing their value.

Only big farms earn money in bounties if they can automate their work, although I am not sure that big farms will spend time on this, it is better to hunt for retrodrops, there the profit will be much more.

So, just never try to participate on it if you were still blaming the reward dedicated to run bounty. It's decided by the developer and not by the manager.

It is not easy to be a bounty hunter this days Think it is not the managers faults that things are like this ,The overall market condition is bad we are still in a bear market unlike in 2017/2018 when the market was very bullish and there are lots of high budget bounties on the forum. Most bounty allocation today are not worth it and There are too much bounty participant this days making it very hard to earn any good amount of money engaging in bounty campaigns.

Five years ago, bounty hunters also faced similar problems, but despite this they continued to participate in the bounty. So bounty hunters are fully satisfied with the conditions of participation in the bounty, and since they participate in dozens of bounties at the same time, the risk of unpaid work is absorbed by profit.

a. projects failing to pay it's bounty hunters or suddenly research the pool money
b. not only does the projects didn't pay the hunters, but the manager themselves. Resulting to some of them getting negative from DT1 members
So it's not all money for managers as well, and they really need to be very careful of the projects that they manage otherwise they could also fall victims to scam projects.
Currently all bounty managers have created a disclaimer on their projects. This is because sometimes managers have worked hard and managed the campaign well and when they provide the campaign results to the project team, they ignore it or it even turns out they are a scam project. This indirectly causes the bounty manager to receive a red flag/neg trust. So now the bounty campaign participants have been informed about this.

Disclaimer: I am only the Bounty Campaign Manager for this project. I am paid only to manage this signature campaign. I will not be held responsible should the developers/project team fail to reach their stated goals/obligations to the bounty participants, investors, and everyone else.
Join (on this bounty campaign), Invest (on their ICO/IDO/IEO), or use their platform at your own risk.
So I think this is a win-win solution for all parties involved.

... So after a few months of work you get $2, $5, $10, $30, $50...

The standard of living in different countries differs significantly, respectively, and $50 for some will be equal to a month's earnings in the office. But given the fact that you can participate in several Bounty at the forum at the same time, it becomes possible to significantly improve your financial situation. Therefore, the number of people willing to receive 10-50 dollars will not decrease.
Correct, plus we also need to take into account that those people not only use bots to automate the process needed to claim the bounties, they also have multiple accounts.

So while earning 10 dollars after months of work seems like not worth our time, and it is not for the majority of us, when we take into account they can instead earn hundreds of dollars out of bounties then suddenly that amount does not look as bad anymore, especially when we compare it to what they could earn on their home countries.

Majority of bounty hunters already know the risk for not getting paid. But still they gamble their faith for the hopes that they can earn some compensation thru the efforts they exert on that campaign. And we cannot blame other to join even if the chances to get paid is so low since majority of them cannot afford to spend some amount to use it for investment. If they have money for sure those bounty hunters will not join there but unfortunately they don't have financial capabilities so they decide to try their luck there.

You can add research on how many bounty participants participate in that type of bounty. Then you can calculate the total budget allocation and divide it by the number of participants. So from the start you can consider whether to participate in the bounty or not.

As @Adbitco has said, you can try your luck in bounty campaigns that are paid with BTC. Even though it is very difficult to get accepted, you can try to find merit and improve the quality of your post.
It is important that if a person is going to participate in those bounties that they take into account if there is a limit on the amount of users which can participate, because if there is no limit then at the end of the campaign a lot of users could have joined and force for a drop on your remuneration.

Also it is important to consider if the campaign manager is holding access to the funds, as a common complain among those which participate in those campaigns is that they never get paid what they are owed as the developers exit scam everyone.

I think OP means that after becoming one of the supporter of the project (by being part of the campaign) it does matter because participants do give their time and effort for how many weeks. But I think, It is not a matter of how many bounty campaign you have participated, it is all about doing research and finding a good project just like joining to those good bounty managers, so your effort will not be wasted and have a higher chance to avoid scam campaigns.
I see like the OP is complaining about the unlimited number of campaign participants like in social media campaigns and signature campaigns that are not paid with BTC. So it's like there are many people who will promote the project but with limited pay. Let's say project A has a budget of $5,000 and project B also has a budget of $5,000. If there are 1000 campaign participants in project A, that means there are 1000 people working but they are paid $5 per person. Then in project B there are 100 people working and they will be paid $50 for each participant. I think that's what OP had in his mind.

Actually doing the bouty at the present time is just a waste of time. It is better to do skill development in something else than this. Because most of the projects are scams the work is not worth the money at the end. And for that reason, we should not blame only the managers because the managers just do their work, if we see most of the managements give warnings in advance. So just like investing at your own risk, I think you should do it at your own risk.

Rules are established before campaigns start, and relevant parties will have consensus to carry out that work. Bounty campaigns seem to be of a much lower quality compared to the past, but it's clear that if you watch the market develop, I think it will be easy to see the change even the marketing area has changed and More professional than before, I can mention some platforms like galxe, zealy,... that are doing very well marketing programs for crypto projects. So don't be too dependent on projects appearing on the forum.

Tell this to all bounty hunters out there who are spending their precious time posting Proof of Authentication, and bounty reports in different bounty threads.
TBH, they're like AI bots where whenever they see a new campaign popped out, they will immediately flock, posting Proof of Authentication, and what's worse is that they aren't reading the requirements. They'll just post there without any reading whatsoever. How stupid they are.

Like you said, these bounty hunters are earning a few bucks only, and they're weeks or even months promoting that project. For me, it isn't worth it. Yes I did it back when I was a newbie, but when I did join a signature campaign that pays us thru Bitcoin, I stopped it immediately. Yes participating in bounty campaigns can give you some few bucks, but the question is, is it worth it for them? The amount of time they spent just for a few bucks. One more is that, there's no guarantee that they'll get paid in advertising that project.

Make yourself experts, eh? Well, I agree with that. I'm not even an expert, but I realize that joining into these bounty campaigns isn't worth my time, so I guess that a person with enough knowledge will soon realize the same.

Bounties are easy to do, and can be done by multiple accounts. Heck, even a single person can do so by managing multiple accounts if they really want to. The budget as well depends on the client, but I do agree with most of them giving out low pays since, well, most of them are sht projects, not to mention that a lot of bounties have a sht ton of participants, so even if say a project has an allocation of $1k for bounty hunters, they're mostly paid pennies due to the sheer amount of workforce they hire. Quantity over quality so to speak.

There are also instances where they give out tokens as payment, and value it at X price when in reality, it's like half of that, maybe even lower. By the time they reward the token (which is usually at the end of the bounty), the tokens value is close to nothing.

In order to see if it is worth joining the bounty assuming that they will pay, you must look at the budget of the bounty campaign first.  Get the share of the campaign you wanted to participate and check the possible number of participants.  If the participants aren't capped then it is a sure thing that the participant can get only pennies since there is a possibility of having more than thousands of participants in one campaign.

about the bounty managers, they are getting paid for the task but sometimes the payment is done after the campaign ended, and there are lots of bounty managers in way back 2018 that were not paid due to rampant scam projects during those times.

A manager is getting good money as his remuneration but a hunter is just wasting time. So make yourself experts to work on bounty and abandon the bounty of such a budget.
Fell free to quota because of my little experience.
Well its not easy to be a bounty manager even for altcoins or paid in weekly. By doing so, you need some skills and patience and also knowledge herr on forum. For example in signature campaign, how would you check if the participants are well versed or not spamming. Or on social media if they are real or legit users. Many things are needed in order to be at that position. So Im sure they well deserved those. For joining campaign with little budget or small compensation, I think it will depend on the user if he wanted to join or not so its not mandatory.

Bounty hunting is not an occupation, any one who sees bounty hunting as a job opportunity will get disappointed several times because they will not get paid up to their expectations, and they can even get paid with some shitcoins that will never be listed on any exchange. Although the Signature Campaign is paying participants in Bitcoin up to $300 per week, which is three times the amount of the minimum wage in some countries, that should not still give the impression that the Signature Campaign is a full-time occupation. Most of this campaign can end any day, or the person can even get kicked out of Signature at any time, and if they are only relying on the Signature Campaign, things are really going to be difficult for them.

A manager is getting good money as his remuneration but a hunter is just wasting time.

About this, bounty managers cannot really tell if a project can be successful or not; sometimes it's even the kind of exposure that bounty hunters give some of those projects that makes them successful, unless for a project the team is very slow with the thought to scamming investors.

Don't be one sided.

Managers are also taking the risk and pain if the project runs away after being successful or if they become unsuccessful. There could be a mutual agreement from them, who knows.. we don't know.

But don't say that it's just only them that making money out of the projects that they manage. We don't even know if they're paid upfront and the management just wants to ask them for their patience but they'll pay them later on.

If you think bounty is just a waste of time, just don't do it and find something else to work where your time is valued.

If everyone stops advertising at $10-$50 for the Bounty campaigns, then project owners will be forced to increase the money allocated to the advertising campaign, but I see that everyone is motivated to advertise either by creating more alternative accounts or being satisfied with less than what your posts/tweets/posts deserve, so it is illogical to accuse them of greed. There are many people who are able to perform the same work at half the price. Imagine yourself in the market and finding two products, one of which is good and priced at $10, and the other is acceptable and priced at $5, so you will pay for the acceptable one. The beginning of the solution to this problem comes from people who want to join the advertisement. They must know that they are being exploited.
Sad thing is those hunters are underpaid but instead of not participating in it to show a protest, they in fact are using multiple accounts to cope with the low payment that they can potentially receive. It is the same from all other freelancing jobs in the internet, projects always want to get the cheapest as they are offering the same services. They are obviously being exploited but yeah we can't blame them since it's a repeated job and the money they can get maybe big enough depending on their country.

Don't let yourself be undervalued, just my 2cents.

It's not even the budget, so many bounty projects now are a total waste of time, The project for you to receive their token should reach their soft cap if they cannot they will abandon the project or stop it, Some projects keep accepting participants because the more participants, they can fully maximize the promotion so you end getting pennies and the worse that I experience is it took me months before I received my shares and by that time the token has no value anymore.

Bounty today is very different from the one we had several years ago, there are good and innovative projects that reward their participants handsomely and the token when it hits the market has a good price, I earned $1k alone on one bounty for a month of campaign.

If you think it's a wasting time to join a bounty, why you're still participating in one of bounty? take a look with the signature you wore.

If you think it's a wasting time to become a bounty hunter, why you're not start to become a campaign manager?

I really hate when people are complaining about their jobs, government etc that you can't control, if you get paid less, then learn a new skill that will make you able to get paid higher.

No matter how good a bounty manager is, the outcome of the project is not on his hands.

This is why when they are posting a bounty program on behalf of the company or project, they would always disclose about the risks as well as not being associated with them by any means necessary.

It is already a done deal where bounty managers get compensated from the project in running a bounty program. To be honest, being a bounty manager is very stressful work especially in handling multiple projects.

However, I think the bounty managers must also exercise due diligence in accepting projects (especially with ANON teams, faulty smat contracts, low rating audits, etc.) because it clearly affects their reputation and integrity.

I was a bounty hunter before and all I could say is that good projects are like finding a needle in a stack of hay.
I've actually earned good money during the ICO days and that's because that was the hype at that time. I made like let's say $4000 or somewhere higher than that number. But, out of like 20-30 projects that I joined in, only 3 or 4 paid well enough to say bounty hunting is profitable.
True, that's there's less work but when you have the feeling that they might not pay makes it stressful and gives you the idea to quit it. The only problem is, that they won't pay unless you finish the soft cap or the hard cap timeline.
As of today, I don't join such projects anymore because of that inconsistency in paying up. The good thing is I earned money from my last bounty job which I think was years ago.

MAaaN...!! CUT THAT STUPID SHIT
Now look at the performance of trusted Bounty Managers such as Hhampuz, Roysee, Yahoo, etc. which I cannot mention one by one. They have done their job well and provided the best campaign that they have researched. There are many other bounty campaigns that are held by their own project managers. Most of them are social media bounties, videos and articles. But I prefer to write articles because the allocation is bigger and the task is done only once. Compared to having to do social media bounty work that has to be done every day and has a small allocation. Moreover, it will affect the reputation of our account because there is a lot of spam being carried out. The higher the reputation and account level, there will be more decent jobs with commensurate pay, so increase the quality of the account to get work that is worth it.

Why need to participate bounty:
Because working from bounty you can earn money. Here you can participate in signature, social media all different sectors but all these jobs are not easily available. So you have to work here with time and pain.

You should research in Bounty section where there are many bounties who are running bounties of $500, $1000, $5000, $10000, $15000 dollars. This is not logical at all because it is a very small amount where unlimited hunter can work. So after a few months of work you get $2, $5, $10, $30, $50.

A manager is getting good money as his remuneration but a hunter is just wasting time. So make yourself experts to work on bounty and abandon the bounty of such a budget.

Then sometimes they are valuating the bounty in terms of token sale price, yet the presale price is -90%, or fraction that's given away to dump is just too large for markets to handle.
And always check how high they are valuating the tokensale in terms of marketcap.
It doesn't make any sense to work with something that already has too high marketcap from the start. Value can only drop.

Learn what sustainable tokenomics have been in the past and always check tokenomics.

Sometimes they are even saying that they pay in ETH, BUSD or USDT, but only if after the sale after they collect the money. Which is a blatant obvious lie to anyone who has been here before.

Because:
A: bounty managers don't have the escrow money that token sale hasn't raised yet. And we should trust that team would pay if they raised enough money.
B: By doing this, team is treating you as a gullible fool. That doesn't give a good sign about the company values or future in general.
C: They most likely don't raise enough and you end up working for nothing.

And obviously, always choose a reputable bounty manager.

The first lines of the post caused me some bewilderment; I thought that the OP decided to do advertising to participate in the bounty. But then I realized what the OP was leading to. Another point is important: Bounty hunters read only the first lines. "Earn a bounty." Many people still believe in it. But don't call what hunters do work. And also, do not expect that today there are people participating in such bounties with a single account. Imagine what kind of millionaires the hunters would be if they were paid the promised amounts.
What can be said in summary? Many hunters are not sure that they will be paid what they were promised; nevertheless, they participate in groups almost everywhere. Hope for quantity without quality lives to this day.
Why blame managers for getting their money because no one forces people to advertise different shitcoins? Give them freedom of choice, and do not defend or pity them. If there are no brains in the head, then they will not appear. Some people just need these lessons.

I would say it's not the fault of a bounty manager it depends on the bounty hunter whether to take on a bounty or not. As we all know, there's no obligation to do so, and nowadays, bounties tend to offer relatively low rewards. In some bounties, they may advertise a substantial amount for distribution, but when the coin is listed, it becomes evident that only a small amount has been received. The budgets mentioned for bounties are often deceptive because, in reality, they don't hold that much value until the listing occurs. However, if you actively participate in activities like article writing, creating YouTube videos, or engaging in signature campaigns, you can hope for a more substantial reward. Otherwise, there's no point in pursuing them and lastly, we can not compare ourselves with the bounty manager as we know our role is different from the BM.

You can add research on how many bounty participants participate in that type of bounty. Then you can calculate the total budget allocation and divide it by the number of participants. So from the start you can consider whether to participate in the bounty or not.

As @Adbitco has said, you can try your luck in bounty campaigns that are paid with BTC. Even though it is very difficult to get accepted, you can try to find merit and improve the quality of your post.

Most times is not the cause of the bounty managers but the cause of their clients because when they promised to allocate a huge amount of their tokens to the campaign with some certain amount. Let say project owners decided to give out $50k worth of their tokens using their listing price and when they list lower than it should be then the price will surely drop 50k to either 10k or 15k meanwhile participants already hoped to be paid about 50k worth in dollars.

What do you do at this point, they distributes peanuts to the hunters which at the beginning was said to paid some certain amount but leaving them with just $5 after having to spend 4 weeks or 8 weeks of their consistent hard works., That's why you are as a participant you must learn to chose some part of the campaign you wished to enroll instead of wasting your time to participate all. Let say you can get involved with their signature and content creation I think these allocations are mostly higher than the rest.

Between, there are some sets of rules given by bounty managers which you have to decide within yourself before joining the campaign, by abiding to those rules you have agreed to accept any changes be it low budget and low payment, the bounty manager doesn't have the Will power to increase allocation in their description all less they write to their clients for increase in allocation due to the significant dropped in their token prices (this is only possible if the rewards are not yet distributed to participants), any rewards that is already sent out can not be requested for increase at any point.

However, why not build yourself to participate in btc paid signature campaign and leave bounty since they are not reliable. I won't encourage you to keep doing bounty hunter rather put more efforts in your contribution to enable you enough merits to apply in btc paid signature campaign.

I think this question has been before, so if you don't mind I would want you to lock this thread because there are series of topics that relates to bounty hunting and low payment etc.
