Because there are many hunters cheating in many campaigns in the past, the campaign has become not effective anymore.
Many new ICO projects prefer not to running bounty campaign anymore, and choose other way to promote their project.
IEO is one of the way to promote their project and attracting investors to investing.

What is going on with crypto space lately? ICO finally has a better solution which is IEO and it works but what about airdrops and bounties? Right under our nose we get cheated not from scam or fake projects but projects that are already listed and working e.g

Bitsdaq candy swap turned 100:1 bqqq token.
X-block don't even bother about promoters payouts anymore and they are trading already,if my calculation is correct their token already did 1.6x.
Decimated cheat airdrop hunters by later forcing us to buy 5$ worth of DIO token to be able to get our airdrop rewards.
Bounties pays 5$ for promoting their project .
New projects that are never listed on exchanges are dumped through DEX after tracking on etherscan.
No KYC confirmed bounties forced KYC on hunters after bounty ends .

The fact is bounty hunters are not been taken seriously anymore,its absolute rubbish and something must be done about it ,Hunter's real use case is to create awareness for there projects ,that is what makes us important and we shouldn't be treated like we are nothing
Perhaps bounty hunters have ceased to benefit projects and therefore no one wants to pay for the work done. The bounty hunters are also to blame for what is happening because they have tried to cheat the projects in many ways.

It is the reason why one should not rely his living on bounties. The time of 2017 has ended and the era of bounties and airdrop is about to end as well, you should look for a better source of living and don't fully rely to bounties. You have known it well and understand the risks upon signing up any project today. If it is not a scam then they won't pay, if they pay, the pay would be low. And if you receive the payment in tokens, dump will start after the listing.



Sorry mate do not be offended we knows and also know bounties is one of the most profitable source to make money and yes a lot of bounty project are getting envolve in scam but until now a lot of bounty project are give better profits, I suggest those people want to invest in bountry choose bounty with have reputable manager herein bitcointalk and learn the project well before investing or participating. For airdrop I telling prangly didn't participate because It's wasting for me.

As Bounty hunters are certainly not easy and full of risks. In the year 2018 to date, there are not many projects that can be successful. I myself get a lot of unauthorized projects, although many projects are using KYC. And using KYC for a Bounty project, it does not guarantee that the project can be successful. That we are already aware of many false projects, so we must be careful in determining the project.

I agree with you.. Our efforts from sharing and promoting about the projects we partcipated through bounty campaign is most of the time being neglected and its like we are done with our work but we did not get paid for our efforts and time spent for doing all the tasks for us as a bounty hunter. I do not feel that we are being compensated with our work and it started mid part of last year. It's teally hard to earn now through bounty campaigns and I really feel sad about it.

Every investment I must say is risky. You need to put that in your mind. There are some bounties in cryptocurrency now you may think its genuine but its a scam. This actually worries the bounty hunters very much.

therefore doing research first is a step that should have been done, but I don't think they will be easy to invest their money in a project that has no reputation and as a bounty hunter at least they participate in a bounty program

There are project teams that just deceive and cheat bounty hunters. They make promises, but fail to fulfill what they have promised.
Sometimes, before bounty hunter would be paid, the team themselves would have almost sold all they had and there might not be no more volume left for any trade by the time hunters have been paid.

Top notch cryptocurrency airdrops :)
Not completely over, I think the bounty era will not end because the project still needs bounty hunters to promote their projects. Just because the IEO does not mean the bounty era is over, there will be many projects that will follow the IEO and they compete with each other, of course they need bounty hunters to raise their funds.

We can't agree more. Furthermore, a new era for bounty hunters and airdroppers will rise when security tokens times begin...

I've been doing bounty for years. There are no oppressed, all on a voluntary basis. C appearance IEO nothing has changed, just another name. Hamsters no longer want to invest in ICO.

every job has obvious risk and it is relatively. for me every something already done so it is a full responsibility of me and will not blame anyone. here everyone can make decisions, persist or give up the right to everyone. very simple.

I think we all know that this is part of the risk. Never blame anyone including bounty hunters or bounty managers. The ICO project has lost its fans, probably due to the number of SCAMs. I hope we always think positively about the developments.

Maybe some people will think so. And assume that bounty hunters have no benefit at all with them launching their tokens through the IEO. But most think upside down. Prize hunters are very useful. Their site is widespread throughout the world, and they are talked about in various languages. When there are newcomers who want to invest. They are no stranger to their project. This means that they have got information from local sites first.

You just described the life of we bounty hunters, its really annoying and displeasing I must say. Ans just today a project that has been campaigned for, they locked their token for 3 months and some % to be released every month till the 3 month and today been the 3rd month we all woke up to noticed that everyone's acc has been wiped and all tokens gone. This is but a few but we will keep surviving

I have not participated as a bounty participant in an ICO project for almost 2 years because all this time what I have done is paid inappropriately and not even paid, the participants promoted the ICO project but there was no good feedback on the bounty participants.

Bisdaqq swap was 300: 1 ,not 100:1 which is pathetic at any rate. Most airdrops are worthless and share waste of time. If you plan to do any, it sounds reasonable to focus on those are being hosted on exchanges. Latokens hosts a variety of those, rewards typically less than 50$.

There are many ICO or IEO projects that do not choose help from bounty hunters. Many people say that bounty hunters significantly affect the price because after the bounty hunter receives a Token will sell it all right after that, causing its price to drop sharply. So many projects did not value bounty hunters.

Know that you are not the first one to complain about this. Some have even made suggestions on how to go about it but it looks like it's to no avail. There's nothing much that can be done about this unless the hunters themselves stop joining low quality campaigns especially those that has no escrow.

its true, we as a hunters doing well to promoted their project, and after that project collect some of their goal, or when they bounty program come to the end, they will change the bounty rule or cut off the rewards allocation with various execuse or the worst case they dont credit the bounty hunters.

We all know at least one or two token name that didn't paid and lock for long time. In time any projects don't paid bounty hunters, fear to dump but already all dumped.
it is be our risk working in bounty campaign.we only loss our time and energy if bounty manager or developers team didn't pay us.but we should not worry, another campaign will pay us more than we expected.
