I have found such a bounty that looks promising https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bounty-lukki-exchange-bounty-review-a-chance-to-win-125-50-and-25-5156163

P.S. It is not a paid ad, just talking about my experience

I would suggest opening a scam accusation against this company. If there was no mentioning of locking the bounty coins in the bounty thread, and especially if there was no mention on any of the team blog posts, Telegram groups etc, then this is definitely shady behavior.

The bounty hunters did their part in helping to advertise the project, and now the project should reward them for their efforts, regardless how it affects their tokenomics etc.

Decieving Bounty Campaigns are scattered in the forum today in order to gain participants to start with a hype and a so called community. But because of abusive terms and condition. is applied without proper announcement in the very beginning until participants was surprise after the campaign ends that the payment intended for the campaign was locked for 6 months. Bounty hunters fight for your right. give a negative review if you notice that your right as a bounty hunter was degraded. join the fight.
well to be honest,  it's not fair.  But there could reasons for the changes.  Allo in most bounty rules, they always state that  rules can bungee changed which means we can expect anything at any time.

If you don't speak from the start it's certainly a cheating for bounty hunters. I also experienced such a thing and from the beginning I participated there was no locking and after success and it was finished why such things were put into effect on the grounds that the value did not fall. The risk of falling value should have been considered from the start. This is indeed unfair for bounty hunters.

Well, that's what you get if you work before getting some form of payment upfront.
As long as there are people stupid enough to do these bounties, there will be scams around.

You don't have a leg to stand on, since I can assure you that these projects are fully covered against possible lawsuits.
More than that, who's going to sue them when you're literally working for such low amounts...

If you do work for someone, get your payment locked in escrow or get paid upfront with existing coins that have value.

Locking tokens without informing token holders is still better than not getting anything in return,there is still a chance that the locked will be removed someday but I'm promoted some projects since 2018 and till date I never get any tokens for example X-Block project and they are already trading on exchanges

Bounty managers will always announce when tokens are going to be distributed. If the coin is already listed in the exchange, you can always demand for distribution, there shouldn't be a resistance from them. If its not an exiting token though like ts yet not in the market, its best to keep calm and check the updates for the telegram this is if you believe the team will deliver.

The most painful part is that many of this project that always locks bounty hunters token will turn scam before the locking period is over. Some of them will not even tell you that they have locked it or not. I still remembered SUBAJ token. It is almost a year now and non of the hunters have seen the final bounty allocation not to talk of receiving the bounty rewards. Many of them will not tell you that bounty will be locked but they will always tell the BM to put a note that "the development team have the right to change the rules at any time". Bounty hunters token locking is another way of scamming poor hunters this days. I am patiently waiting to see what Xcrypt will also do.

I'm not against your point at all friend ,this issue has been happening for long ,I've stopped holding some coins because developers aren't keeping there promises and if devs locks bounty rewards its for the sake of the project to avoid dumps but every one needs to be aware ,if that is done in secrecy I lose interest

Nowadays bounty hunters have been deceived in many ways and forms where they are unethically tortured by ways like reducing reward, disqualifying, banning, locking reward or totally not paying the reward tokens.

Please don't believe all the bounty campaigns while you are looking to work in this forum. Many people created scam bounty programs to make investment alone in this forum.
so always be careful while you participate in the campaigns I have noticed many campaign manager does not paying their participants and leaving as it is.

Giving negative feedback is not right here because you accepted their terms while joining so you have to be with them whatever changes they are making but morally its bad but legally not.You could wait or join on the bounties which don't have such rule.

You don't have to hide on a new account mate.

This is not the first time a complain about locking bounty rewards has been posted here. There are two projects that comes to my mind (Dexage and Nousplatform) that locked tokens due to some reason unknown yet before the bounty has started.

Can you specify what was the reason given by the team for locking your bounty tokens?

Did those bounty managers indicated on their bounty announcement thread that bounty rewards will be locked for a certain period of time? If they did, everyone is aware that the bounty they joined will do that.

I dropped by sometimes on the bounty section whenever I have spare time and it became my habit to read some threads there. IIRC, there's one bounty that I've read before that they mentioned it on their announcement that rewards will be locked to give priority to the investors. But if there's no warning or notice about that and they just changed the rules without informing their participants, they will simply add a new rule that the bounty manager can change the rule anytime.

There's already a report in the scam section about locking bounty hunters shares, it's really frustrating when they locked it for a long period of time after a long wait, I'm ok with one month after investors received their but 3 to 4 months or even indefinitely is too much.

The two coins that locked their bounty hunter's rewards are LIKER WORLD, they have unlocked the 30% the remaining 40% will be in August or September and Dexage, they promised to unlock it next month, so we'll see.
