There used to be a lot of bounty scams and I decided not to post them since August 2019. I was very disappointed to see the bounty in 2019. A few days ago I met one of my friends who said that if there are fewer bounty scams now, is that true?

Is scam the only problem affecting bounties? What about the projects that aren't scam but failed to pay bounty hunters, and these projects have good volumes on trading exchanges, they just ignore bounty hunters who helped them spread the words about the project? Too many things to worry about here

This is a difficult thing to answer, I'm just sure the current bounty is much better than the bounty in 2018 - 2019, the signature campaign that you follow does not guarantee success and pays you, "do it at your own risk"
It's not a difficult question to answer. There was no a lot of scam projects like what happened around 2018 - 2019 but you have mentioned the point. Any campaign doesn't have guarantee to be a successful campaign.
Maybe there are still some scam bounties but each of bounty will have different result.

Maybe we can categorize them to the very obvious scam bounty and the semi obvious scam bounty, those that fall in the category of obvious scam bounty have everything in red flag, their white paper is plagiarized, fake team, fake partnership etc.

And those that fall in the category of semi obvious are those that start with everything ranging from white paper,  team and partnership checked out and looks very real, but they will strike at the end of the bounty when they refuse to pay hunters with different excuses or just simply disappear.

There are a couple of scam bounties and that is why participants and bounty managers must thread carefully which bounty program they promote very well. It is the sole responsibility of bounty managers and bounty hunters to do their due diligence on the project, paying attention to the team, concept, product etc before accepting to promote it. Researching very well helps in identifying scam bounties.

Even if there are, we should not bring our guards down, it's still risky scammers are not on vacation they are continuously making projects that look good, scammers are far better than legit developers in launching a project so better take heed and always on guard we never know what's going to happen next.

If going by the testimonies of some friends, I will say we now have less of scam bounty campaigns. Some are already making something reasonable from bounty campaign these days which to me is a prove that legit campaigns are beginning to surface.

Though it might not be so clear to many now because of the negative impact of scammers using bounty campaign but the truth is that there us reduction in the rate of game bounties like we have them in the past. Some good bounties are beginning to come up.

Market conditions make many new projects fail and also attract many fraudsters. It's hard to say there are no scam bounties because in reality there are many who don't pay rewards to bounty hunters. Hopefully there are many new projects that are able to do IEO on a good exchange
I don't think it's because of market conditions, but because the project doesn't want to pay bounty hunters, after they've entered the market too, there are a number of projects that I participated in and until now they are still delaying payments, even after 3 months they added 3 more months on the grounds their project was slow in development

As long as we have no valid data based on research about it, we cannot say "there are fewer bounty scams now". It is too speculative and no proofs + analysis at all. Fewer bounty scams can be caused by the lower number of current projects. Or many of them are still on progress and the scammers are playing their scenario more convincing. So, there are many possibilities, we cannot conclude it too early now.

Yes it is difficult because everyone must have a different experience.

I feel that way too. Since early 2020, significant progress has been seen compared to the previous year. It's just that many trends change, for example, 1) reward payments are divided into several phases, 2) there are also bounties with weekly payments, usually with BTC rewards or coins from the project that already has a good market.

Whatever the circumstances, we must adjust to the current bounty trend. We need more patience.

For now, projects that are running bounties seems to show lots of potentials but however, due to COVID19, a lot things and projects developments are being paused so it is hard to say if there are few scam bounties now. We can only hope for quick end of COVID19 so as to see how well the current bounty projects will be able to pull through and probably reward hunters. The campaign you are wearing signatures for is quite a good one though, campaigns from bounty detectives are amazing

I dont think so!

They might decrease in numbers since they do know that majority of people already treated that most projects that do launched or do need up funding are just total
frauds thats why they do fail up on getting money from its investors.Therefore, they do stop but doesnt mean that the remaining ones are the legit ones ,
im not saying for all since there are projects which are serious to get some funding but i dont blame up people for them to hesitate.

One thing about the crypto space is uncertainty,sometimes one cannot be too sure,the moment you think all is fine,then you get a sudden shock, but so far from what I see ,I think the scam rate is low, but then, one has to choose carefully and hope for the best. I see lots of promising bounties of recent.

I don't think so. We still see people complaining about bounties not paying them or the whole project ending up with no more updates.
Most people also claim that the project is a scam just because the price of the tokens fell. Anyway, why would you want to spend most of the time doing something that has a very bad outcome? You are gone doing something else!

I'm not seeing any big initiatives are going on this community which will be bringing any changes into ICO industry and its bounty campaigns. I mean when most people are not caring about bounty scams, how we could assume about the possibility of fewer scams suddenly. Please note nothing will happen all of a sudden. Only when you and I will be taking care of some initiate to fight against scams, there will be the possibilities about having a better environment which will be having lesser scammers.

I highly suggest you not to go for your own assumption. Because when we are seeing things which will be looking like what we are actually needed. That could be the reason why you are assuming like there are only fewer bounty scams are right now in this community.

It's true since November every April 2020 I took part in 2 bounties and each of the tokens was void. Almost half a year lost ... I'm afraid it's not over bounty scams.

Maybe your friend participates on bounties which are legit by luck or after enough research but if we take at the total number of bounty campaigns launched since 2019 then most of them were still scams even the projects which raised in millions.
