I agree with you on the part, but on the other hand, so this is a bounty company. You do it on your own, and if you believe in the project, then you won't feel that way.
Topic: ICOs bounties suck...do not believe them - page 9. (Read 1872 times)
I run a media company, and deal with a lot of ICOs. What I noticed was that all these ICOs want top-notch articles & videos about them but they insist on paying in their token or want it for free. They think they are doing a service by giving bounties. What they don't realize is that their token is useless most of the time. Most of the bounties done by ICOs are bad.
Like:
1) Write 500-1000 words article on us for 300 of my useless tokens (which won't be coming on an exchange and will be used only on our platfrom. And you won't get free service but 25% discount
)
2) Or make a 5 min video for us and post it on your YouTube. You need to have 5000+ subscribers and praise us to get our useless tokens.
I am not making fun of any ICO, just pointing a fact out on how these tokens are just polluting the market.
If you are an ICO or running an ICO, please pay the right price in a currency that works (Eth, BTC, Euro etc). Your tokens are useless for agencies. They take out their time and resources to make a good campaign for you.
Secondly, if your ICO does not have money..it should be red flagged for a potential scam.
What are your thoughts? Are bounties good or bad?

Nope, it's best.
Give us (bounty hunter) a lot of profits without spending capital.
The most important thing is how you choose what bounty you want to join
Well, good for you guys who made a lot of earnings from bounty campaign which is being paid with their tokens. My friends were also a bounty hunters but not all the time they get what they deserved. Some of you didnt understand what the OP was trying to relay. What he meant was, any person who knows his capability in delivering good service to such a shitty ICO or even the legit one's thats being paid by an unsure token (whether it fails or a total scam) is unfair. As the OP said, ICO's supposed to have enough capital to pay for those who they want to promote their project.
Bounty campaign is different, compared to writting a blog or making a 5 min. video and post it on youtube. Bounty campaign only needs minimal effort by just posting 10 constructive post that is helpful to the community (not even everyone can do the task properly) I think its fair for you guys being paid with their tokens. Unlike promoting such project that requires maximum effort to help them succeed, I guess its unfair if they dont pay you with a currency that has been accepted in the market.
The way you talk is something like you had an experience with this nonsense ICO's and at the end of the day, it will gone and scam. Well i agree on your statement, they must be true to their words, as being a bounty hunter or bounty management., we are promoting their business and running a capital for them.,and it turns back that they are not a real business. This type of ICO must be stop, and otherwise we will lose the momentum.

I like to quote this, i am not a greedy person but paying using eth,btc etc in ICO campaigning is good one. To me all ICO are not guaranteed to success but with paying the latter it will helps us a lot make's are work done beautifully. I run a media company, and deal with a lot of ICOs.

I have participated in several bounties that did not pay or the price of tokens in the market was very cheap, from there I learned to be more careful in participating in a bounty, researching the ico project first, and how much token allocation we will get, it will be more helpful so that we avoid fraudulent projects
I don't know about that but there are lots of ICO that have made their investors super rich. The market is oversaturated with several tokens and ico projects making it hard for us to know which ones are viable and which are not but that should not make us generalize that all ico and their bounties are bad

Bounties means they will pay us at the end of the ICO sale in their token,I never seen any ICO projects paying in other currencies which already has value.So it is your responsibility to pick the right boumty which have better future value. Like:

To be a successful bounty hunter a person must be not just a pragmatist, but an enthusiast. Crypto is about believe in general. so you should choose a good project and believe in it, them you will be paid fine and the token will be listed on major exchanges.
I agree with you. Now there are a lot of shitty projects that want bounty hunters to do free advertising for them. It is now quite difficult to choose a good bounty campaign.
You are right to some extent but not absolutely right. We know there are ICOs which exist for the bellies of the developers and some that exist to bring a change. We can not put all of them in the same basket and call them rogue. The problem is that must of them are scams. So, it is a buyer beware kind of condition while indulging any ICO.
Look the Official DIW ICO Program ........Is a good project .......It's an honest rewards program and it's paying well.

A really detailed, although petulant write up, how does one protest a choice. You got to do some hard work here and choose wisely.
I think that participation in bounty companies is profitable for many people. But unfortunately in recent years, more and more complaints are received about the fact that the ICO in which someone participated is a Scam, or just the company has not entered the exchange.
you really should have put "most" in front of it. not all ico bounties are not good. there are still good ones too if you dount just rush into bounties you will always join good ones
Regardless of which project, put yourself in the position of devs. Do you want low-quality content for yourself? And as for scammers, it has already been said above.
i don't agree with you as well,well is like saying everybody who is alive is bad lol was chuckling about what u said .
I can say, not of all them is sucks. I’ve experienced several bounties that paid with good rate. Even I am only a member rank. So, I suggest you analyze first the project before join.
Agree with you, before joining necessarily analyze project, because now a large number of scams.
I agree with you as a content creator because most of the time they ask for too much, some of them want us to do high quality stuff, but they do not pay very well. I think you are not forced to join the bounty you don't like since they are a lot of bounties that's is great too.
I guess that's because there are so many bounty hunters out there that do a crappy job. They're in for the money and do as little as possible, either not seeing the whole picture or not fearing the consequences. Reputation is hard to come by. It would help if Bounty Mangers would ask Content creators for previous jobs, just like Translators. That way they could weed out a lot of cheap players.
