Not now because a lot of project now are scam than before who are most of the project are legit so the bounty hunters are lucky before but not most of them leave and not partipate most of the bounty. But they still have some bounty hunters consistent to hunt a good bounty campaign so they join even they know the possible result and they take risk because maybe they are jackpot someday in the bounty they join but now bounty is not profitable.
actually, some projects are successful in sales and also their bounty, it's just that not so many projects are really successful with the bounties they make. some projects have low prices and little demand in the market. however, projects like harmony are quite beneficial for those who participate. however, it will benefit when you find a bounty with a good project.

Some bounties are profitable in 2019 and most bounties of this year are scam, even high ranking members fell victim as well, you can't out smart yourself, you are humans and you will make mistakes over again, been extra careful won't safe your ass from mistakes, keep joining good projects and one day you will get lucky cos thats all we have left
How can you say that it is not profitable??
First of all, you didn't invest anything on it but only time and nothing more unless you invested on the bounty campaign you joined and become a scam then you can say that is not profitable. You can say that it is profitable when you got a reward and you sold it and you got money. On the other side, you can't say that it is not profitable if the token didn't have value because there is no money involved on it

Yes I agree with you on this. On the one hand, the number of bounty campaigns is decreasing due to failure to attract investors. On the other, there are only a few good project, which is difficult to find. Likewise, fake bounty campaigns are also haunting investor and bounty hunters as well.
Although some bounty programs end up not been successful there are some that were successful irrespective of the market condition. Comparing 2019 bounty programs to 2018, one can vouch for the bounty programs in 2019 because 2018 was not good for most of the projects and the ICOs because of the long bear market within 2018.
95% bounty is scam. I have received nothing but tokens worthless for over a year. Don't spend too much time participating in bounty right now, you won't get anything
A lot in cryptocurrency market think bounty campaign become not profitable this year.
Do you agree with this?
Please explain your opinion, let us know what you think.
Although I voted for bounty hunting is profitable this year 2019, but if you don't good research than this is not possible. By IEO we passed a good year by get Harmony, Sero, Ferrum network and celler network. Do you agree with this?
Please explain your opinion, let us know what you think.
We're having an opposite vote here mate, I just expressed what feeling had this 2019 so I voted no. It's been nearly a year looking forward for lots of bounty campaign, but sadly that's isn't a good trend on all project particular on IEO. Although projects you've mentioned we're having good potential, you can't expect bigger profit once btc and eth price cannot establish another price spikes.
Most bounty projects are now scam. But among them there are a small number of really good projects. But this does not save the situation, because basically, in such projects involved a lot of people and in the end all participants get a penny. Therefore, such bounties are also unprofitable. That's the sad situation now.
I'm surprised about the current results of the poll. Many still believe that bounty campaign is profitable this year? I already stopped joining bounty campaigns because almost all of them are just wasting your time and effort. Is there a list somewhere that you can see projects that can still be profitable? I feel that they are slowly dying down.
Bounty campaigns are not as profitable as the years ago, but still bounty campaigns are going to be profitable in 2019 depending on the type of bounties one participates in. Doing a thorough research before participating in bounties is the only way bounties are going to be profitable in 2019.
There's only few bounty that are profitable, majority are not. It's not a question whether they are legit or not because it's not easy to prove them, one of the reason why bounty is not as profitable as before because of the current market condition, when altcoins are down, it's expected that new coins created will be affected also.
There are some successful projects raise in IEO but the success was only short term as eventually coins value will correct and will go with the overall market situation, if the altcoins rally will come then maybe we will see a good opportunity for bounty again.
I think it will always bring profit since companies spend millions and billions each year on marketing and advertising. Affiliate marketing even big companies like Google and Microsoft do. Every company uses promoters they are just called bounty hunters here. Proper bounty hunting can be consider SEO work as well. This will be for your higher quality hunters and projects. They need to stop letting just anyone in a bounty and screen them a little. Not a lot just a bit to keep people with bad intentions such as doing crappy work or having no real interest in the project.
Don't just randomly choose a bounty read their Ann and do your homework.

I can count at least 8 bounties that have paid me in 2019 (although some of them are from bounties in 2018 like Akropolis and Carry Protocol). So my verdict will be YES. Bounties campaign have been very profitable in 2019. The difference between this and 2018 is that the rewards seem to be lesser compared to 2018. This may be due to the influx of new hunters though
No I haven't found one yet but still i think so people found good ones there so I will not be surprised maybe one or two but the truth is not like 2018 and not close to 2017 period since is going down the pecking order slowly
Bug bounty hunting is something I have seen to be profitable because there are less experts in the crypto field which means big payouts unlike ordinary bounty hunting which attracts thousands of participants from all over the world which means rewards are now as good as nothing! So sadly bounty hunting in a nutshell isn't profitable in 2019:(
It is profitable if you consider your time to have no value. You could make more money using your time more productively instead of wasting it on projects that you don't research. Now new projects can still be very profitable but there is a lot of risk involved.
Now, to make money in the bounty, you need to think well with your head. Otherwise, you will either stomp on the spot or earn extremely little.
It all depends on how much your time is valuable. If you are able to earn in the bounty in the current market,
and this does not cost much effort and time, then most likely you will be able to earn much more outside the bounty, while spending less time.
Exactly, bounty pays but very few now pays and you now have to research hard to find a good one. I joined minter because its a novel blockchain project. It allows individuals to create their own coin or token on the chain and they can also exchange the coin for other major coins issued in the network like btc, eth, usdt instantly

The better solution i can think of right now is devs should start paying bounty hunters in stable coins or bitcoin if we are in bad market condition, if market is in good condition like altcoin season then they can pay bounty hunters in tokens or coins of the project, i don't know how it sound but i think thats the best solution
Depends on what project you participate because most of them will pay you worthless coin, some of them will pay you coins with super low value, some of them will actually pay you tokens will real value and provide a decent exchange and there is the last category wich never pays the hunters but this is our risk when we get involved into bounties.
Yes, it all depends and we cannot sentence the bounty campaign profitable or not. So as long as you choose the right project, then it will benefit you every year. But, when you don't do good research and don't choose the right project, the bounty campaign will always be unprofitable for you and will completely waste your time.Depending on the bounty camping, controlling the situation and counting the bounty stakes must be done by the experienced bounty manager. Otherwise, the unliked situations will happen which we can't prevent in this case. If there is no experience by the bounty manager, I avoid trying my luck on the bounty campaign for the mentioned generalizations.
