If a project is unable to reach their soft cap will they pay participants their reward for bounty activities.
I think it depends on the project team. However, based on my observations most of the projects that did not reach softcap did not pay bounty participants because the project failed.

Based on experience the project that was not able to reach soft cap will not reward bounty tokens. This is a fail ICO, they usually return the money of investors and no reward for the bounty hunters. But I think there are some bounty that the marketing fee is fixed and regardless what happen to the project, it will be paid. But as I said, base on my experience, I work for that bounty for 3 months but it fails to reached soft cap, then sorry for all of us. The good thing is, I was able to upgrade my rank because of this bounty from a Jr. Member to Full member.

It depends, if they willingnto continue the project they will pay however if they are not willing then they will not and ofcourse they will return all the investment garnered during the ICO. If they pay you must dump it fast because that coin has no future. June 10, 2018, 06:27:37 PM
Of course yes that's the benefit of the participants get the reward from bounty as bounty hunter's and wait until the rewards have value in the market cap
Unfortunately, there aren't any tokens that will be distributed if a project is unable to reach their soft cap because investor's money would be refunded and the project wouldn't have anything to pay bounty participants. That's why some bounty hunters carefully analyze a project first before joining into it since their effort would be wasted if ever the project didn't reach softcap. June 10, 2018, 06:27:17 PM
You can't expect this to be possible because softcap target is the minimum amount needed to launch the project and if the softcap isn't reach, project cannot be carried out and most of the investor will be refunded,
Definitely nothing for bounty hunter.
Definitely nothing for bounty hunter.

holding the reward for long term the tokens or coins came the project become valuable in the future to earn profits as participant.

It will not as the softcap of a project is the minimum requirement for an ICO to start the project which in return will be the basis of the price of the tokens of the project. That is why evaluating the ICO and its bounty is essential and looking for red flags should always be your priority when choosing.

Usually not. I would love to see a bounty manager hold a fraction of the tokens for each successful bounty as bank to pull from in the case of a flop given all the hard work. I think the stability will be appealing

I doubt that. It is illogical and counterproductive at the same time. Even if they give you any tokens, they can not start their project because of lack of funds. Would they have any value? I do not think so. As bounty hunters, we must admit sometimes we will not be rewarded for our effort. Unfortunately, even the best-looking projects can fail even before they had a chance to make some noise.

I think if a project does not reach the soft cap then they are bound to refund the investors so they have no funds to pay bounty hunters, the only way out is to reduce soft cap so that project can continue and bounty will be paid.

If the project decided to not refund investors money and continue with the development even tho Softcap not reached, then the bounty rewards should be rewarded to all participants. On the other hand if the project refunded investors money and decided to not continue the development of the project then no bounty should be paid because you will getting a useless not usable Tokens anyway ( Tokens without investors and without development ) .

There are different options in this case. If you did not achieve the soft cap you most likely will not be paid, but there are cases when payments on the bounty are still being made, but the tokens will hardly cost anything.

I dont usually participate with bounty campaigns because im not interested with new coins that still not listed on any exchanges. But just think if your project doesnt reach the minimum cap that you need to fund your project then the project has no chance to continue so what is the point of releasing those tokens if the project will no longer have a development or future goal? So as a participant on that bounty will you still accept it if you already know that they will not continue? Of course not because it will worth nothing because there will be no exchanges that will want to list it. June 10, 2018, 12:23:28 PM
no mate. Mostly when the team could not manage to reach the soft cap they simply postponed the ICO and make a second plan to make it better. But sometimes such kind of outcome can not give a good impact to the investors who are seeking an ICO to invest.

As it is the wish of every ICO to make their projects reach at least softcap but if unfortunately it could not, that brings the end of such project and no reward is expected afterwards.

Depending on the project. if the platform proceed to run the project then bounty it will be paid, if they choose to stop the project then investor funds will be refunded and bounty will not be paid.

Not a lot of them do. Mostly when a project don't reach their soft cap, they stop the project completely and start working on refunding the investors who invested in the project which means that the project is then discontinued so even if they did pay you the tokens that you are owed, they would be useless because you couldn't sell them anywhere.

It depends from project to project. Some pay even if they don't hit their soft cap and some don't. You can ask them on their Telegram channel on what is their official statement about that. Sure, they could not tell you the truth, but you could at least get some feeling about it.

Lately, I heard of a project that had similar challenges with this you just mention and I heard the Dev Team had to return fund back to their contributors and they all went smoothly in peace while they had zero worries.

its depends on their team
because, if they continue the development without enough funds, that same as run a car without gasoline,
but, if the team have another plan with their project, i think they will pay for your support
maybe they will run an airdrop, etc
