Yes there is and it is called escrow.
It serves to protect investors and could protect bounty hunters but projects don't use escrows. Escrow could force projects to pay bounty hunters before they release invested funds.

The participants of the bounty companies are the most unprotected layer of cryptoindustry. At the moment there is no body that protects their rights and this is very sad, but I hope that in the future such a body will appear.

There is almost no way but to protect yourself.
I saw recently, the ICO intends to scam almost nonexistent.
The rest, the participants ICO has increasingly smarter, they will learn carefully the project before deciding to invest.

I also once was interested in this issue and it turned out that here is the Wild West. Everyone is based on his own experience and partly on good luck. In case the project fails or behaves unfair, bounty hunters can't do anything. I would gladly support the establishment of a Union that would influence and protect the rights of bounty hunters.

in my opinion there is no organization that protects the rights for bounty hunters, because bounty hunters are free for anyone and their whereabouts are unknown.

Unfortunately, there is no such structure. But we certainly need a structure like this as a bounty hunter, there are times when I can't get what I deserve.

As far as I know there are no such organizations or defenders for bounty hunters now. However, there are bounty platforms that partially fulfill these functions, they choose projects, learn information about them, communicate with project representatives. Such platforms have a low percentage of scam projects and a large percentage of guaranteed payments. If you do not have enough experience to study the project data yourself and make an analysis, then you can trust the bounty platforms or rating sites. And of course be sure to read all the reviews about the project that interests you.

Is there any organisation out there today that protects the right of bounty hunters??

And is there a way to know if the project you're promoting is legit or not?? Because Even with the presence of SEC the rate of scam ico's has increased drastically
I think right now there is no any strong organization which have strong view on the ICOs to filter out the scam ICOs. The moderators of this forum play a vital role to give negative trust to scam ICOs besides that you can also go to the rating websites where the expert rate these ICOs.

Well, so far we have none the best thing we can do is to post a report in the scam section to warn potential investors and other bounty hunters,only bounty hunters can help bounty hunters too  but it's going to be a big help if we have a group thast can help bounty hunters for rewards issues.

ICOs are not regulated by SEC and that is why some people are now trying to bring up STO that is regulated. Therefore, there is yet no body to oversee that, expect if tomorrow, it is announced that it's now regulated.
Then protecting investors now might not be feasible, until we see the regulation of not just STOs, but also ICOs coming into actualization. So if investors are protected, definitely, it will extend to bounty hunters.

I don't really know about bounty hunter protection organizations from fraudulent projects. because the bounty hunter follows the Bounty project to work to support the product and get tokens. Scam projects are rampant for that, we must be extra careful in choosing, the simple way I look at the product, the development team and the manager then provide a telegram or intragram group.

I remember that crypto has not been created by the SEC for its own law. Currently to detect a fraudulent ICO, it should be based on the investor itself, since most of these are currently only ICO rating sites, it does not bring much useful information to everyone.
Most of the ICO rating sites are useless in current market. Because no one is know the exact information and potential of ICO. I think many scam projects are listed in top level in many sites so we should check the softcap and hardcop of the project then choose the right project is the good move.

No, there are no such organizations. We are on our own. I used to think that if projects cut the pool or did not pay the rewards, nothing could be done, but over time I saw many examples when the bounty hunter community managed to achieve it.

YOU... YOU are who must protect yourself... I mean, at the moment there aren't too many laws about crypto... it is true that step by step we are growing a regulation about crypto but at the moment, as far as I know, it'd be better if you save yourself from scams.

There is not such organization, i wish organization like that could be set up to fight for interest of bounty hunters because team are manipulating hunters because they don't have choice, terms and conditions are changed frequently by the team when it comes to payment of bounty.
If it is about funds that reserved for bounty pool, it can be escrowed but rarely happens. The worse is, they extending the duration of the bounty without adding any bounty funds, so that the bounty hunters received very unusual results. Unfortunately with that, That's we are rarely find a project that truly values our hard work.

I don't think there is any prganization that protects the rights of bounty hunters. In fact, it is the bounty hunters that needs the job and not the ICO itself. So whether we like it or not, it is part of the risk for bounty hunters to identify those legit and scam projects.

It is believed that all ICO projects that are starting their activities are legitimate until there are doubts about the opposite. Now this activity of the ICO is not yet regulated, and therefore there are no organizations that could protect the rights of investors and headhunters. We can only have hope for state regulation of this type of activity. It should be soon. Now many states are preparing their own rules for regulating ICO projects.

Never heard of any such institution or organization that protects hunter bounty rights. Even the rights of investors who are deceived are hard to fight for. Can only report to the authorities.

There was a time that teams are doing ICO are required to have escrows. Escrows can be a safeguard for the bounty hunters and also the investors depending to the agreement but then again no one is for sure about getting paid but there's higher chance of it. Those times I think were better than the ones that is happening today. SEC would also be good and its currently happening on some corners of the globe.
In my opinion requiring escrow in conducting ICO is/was a good option. But the possibility of fraud can still occur. And yes, perhaps SEC could be one of the options for ICO regulator, but not bounty hunters IMHO.

Actually, its hard to determine if you the project that you have promoting is legit or not. There is no organization that protect that right of bounty hunters and as of now some bounty hunter do not receive their rewards after promoting the project simply because it is failed or it is scam.

As far as I know, there is no existing organization or group inside our forum dealing with that kind of matters. The mods are the one who take responsible for giving disciplinary actions against scammers (by putting neg trust of course).
And is there a way to know if the project you're promoting is legit or not??
Yup! It is by doing your own research on that particular project. You should visit their site and social media accounts, look for their whitpaper and objectives and look for the dev team. The answer for your question will based on your intuition and own analysis with the small help of opinions coming from the others (keeping updated in the Service Discussion might help too.

Here's a tip, if the project is too good to be true or looks shady then there's a big chance that it was a scam. Be very careful in making decisions and good luck Smiley.

Now, in my opinion, there is no organization that would defend the right of bounty hunters. Over time, the activities of the ICO will be regulated by the states. Then there will be a government agency that may consider complaints against ICO teams. Many states are already taking certain steps to regulate ICO activities. These are Japan, Germany, France, Russia, Australia.

In my opinion, at the moment there are no clear regulations that mention a project.
for me, a bounty hunter only bet on the luck they have in determining which projects succeed or not.
when the project they are participating in is successful then it is luck.
While when the project fails, they must be able to receive as well as possible.

How we wish there are but no there are none and we are left to our own and besides it might become a source of corruption, like what happen to some rating sites, who are supposed to be our guide but ends up conniving with scam ICO to get high grades from their rating.

None.
Bounty hunters aren't registered and there's no body of government that protects the rights of you guys. While the rewards are through crypto, it's also a hot topic that some government are putting their hands off through crypto.

We will see by 2019 SEC's full statement about ICOs. Knowing what's legit or not, is hard today as most of them are scam though they have an interesting whitepaper and roadmap.

It used to be those rating, but they cannot even track who are scam and who are not, there were reports that some of these rating sites are even receiving money from ICO to get a good rating, we do not have a legit and honest organizations to track who are scam and who are not.
