January 2019 we have more bounties at that time but this year January seem to be different, very few bounty projects shows up, I'm not saying scam projects aren't around but this forum seem relieved from many junky projects like that of 2019, maybe scammers are tired of not getting answers in return? Maybe people are now smarter and scammers are starving? I so wish so 🙏 lol what about you?

of course everyone is getting smarter, they won't be careless in investing in new projects that don't have clear goals going forward. Scammers will diminish if everyone is more careful in taking action before promoting gifts or investing in projects that look suspicious

Yes, at the beginning of January 2020 only a few prize projects appeared, but that does not mean that we are free of fraud or relief projects that the garbage project no longer appears, as far as I know, scamers are always around us, they will never stop fooling their victims. So, I think even though not many projects came up earlier this year, to remain vigilant because scamers are still around us.

scammers are not tired, they are waiting for the market to recover, so are investors, investors will return to the market when the market has recovered,
and when the market recovers, everything will recover, and of course, we must also be prepared and observant with the scammer project.

With so many project frauds that have occurred, I am not sure whether investors will dare to reinvest even though the crypto conditions have recovered, we know how smart the scammers are in doing their work so that so many investors suffer considerable losses in investing in a project, I think now investors have been careful about investing both in ieo and ico. And of course we can see the effects that occur on some ico or ieo projects that are indeed unable to meet their sales targets, even though they have done sales in several phases.

You are not alone, I personally also realize that in early 2020 not many ICO projects were present in this industry. but that does not mean we can be relieved. because scamers are always looking for ways to fool their victims, scamers are still around us. it's important for anyone to always be on guard because scamers will never stop launching their evil intentions.

Indeed, scammers have not gone anywhere and are always around us but it’s good that we started to see and it would be good if investors saw them.

I guess those developers thought that few only investors will invest to them because ICO/IEO are not popular anymore so their time will be wasted if they launch ICO/IEO, bounty campaigns and will not succeed. I hope that more projects in this year 2020.

I feel that presently even spammers don't carry out any responsibilities since they can't get whatever that they will make some type of venture, furthermore the reason is people loosing there enthusiasm for bounties because of the reality they word testing and acquire little prize at some point no award by any means.

It's still too early to judge the development of the campaign earlier this year, I'm sure many are discouraged because they are just wasting time in their campaign activities. Regulations became stricter and exchanges began to monopolize sales and promotions only through the IEO requirements of their platforms. If the climate is still the same as the dominance of weak projects from scammers like in 2019, I would choose to stop being a hunter for a while.

This is a natural fact people can be get scammed just one or two times, not every time after that they become smart and aware. Another reason is this that most of the investors are not just investing with closed eyes anymore.. They have become more sceptical and scrutinize before investing. But i'm not saying scammers have stopped launching bogus projects and scammers are still at large.

Indeed, they are not more vigilant than before. If the situation goes like this, it somehow will possibly help to minimize scam and will put them into nothing. That is why it is very important to have a background check before investing in that certain project because that is the only way it helps us to decide to invest or declines.

I just thinking about this situation. I'm getting very project by bounty in this forum and I don't think this means scammers are gone forever. Last year I saw campaign name was "media protocol" and this was almost legit, but failed to funds rise for bear situation.

Most participants and investors are now more skeptical and wiser in choosing legit bounties because they have learned too much from their previous experiences. We can't deny the fact that most of us have been scammed by fake projects so we're now more observant and know how to get rid of scammers.

this is my personal reason.
- 2019 too many junk projects. so bounty hunters are tired of looking good. I personally stopped hunting bounty at the end of 2018. because none of the projects that I participated in had paid me.
- 2019 The ICO can't attract investors, so the project can't grow. and ends with a scam.
- the move of ICO to IEO made crypto project eliminate the campaign. so it is very quiet towards the campaign.
- the project in 2019 is no longer interested, from investors or from bounty hunters. because it considers all projects to be nonsense.

So what your advice ?
Just one more day before yobit signature ended sure im sad because not much campaign for now can pay reall money everday .
Should we need hunt ICO bounty again ? Lol im just tired with that

Times have changed , it takes genuineness for any new project to raise funds because almost everyone is now wiser. That's why there is decrease in rate of new bounties. So if anyone must come out , it must be a good project.

yes maybe scammers are tired, because people who are on the forums are smarter and scammers are also very difficult to raise funds but at least with at least a bounty we can be more careful in doing research

In my own opinion, maybe the reason why bounties started to become few nowadays because scammers are getting tired from it or no one would like to create new projects. They also knew that there are only few investors nowadays, that is why new projects nowadays don't have any good value in their exchange.

I think that now even scammers do not do any projects because they can’t get anything if they will create some kind of project. the maximum that they can do is spend the time of stupid bounty hunters and their own. they won’t be able to collect any money simply because now no one is not investing in new projects, and also all people has learned long time ago how to understand which projects are scammers

They cannot get a lot because investor don't also rely on bounty. Also because some of manager don't also accept some project because their name getting into worst so they didn't 100% trustful because of the scammer project creator.

You're right the number of gift projects is decreasing. because most prize hunters have been more careful in choosing bounty projects. only gift projects that have good characteristics are followed. and most investors are no longer interested in investing in bounty projects. so most gift projects cannot develop and become scam projects. and this ultimately prevents developers from making gift projects.

It might be due to so many members, investors are getting smarter before joining some new projects nowadays. I actually kinda like it this way. There's not that many new shady projects showing up. Well, bounty hunters also decreasing in numbers day by day because they finally realized that doing bounties nowadays sometimes not even worth their time or effort. And I don't really get what you mean that scammers are getting tired. I mean, scammers are always around us, they are just patiently waiting for the opportunity to arise.
