Lol, I'm not surprised, even many high ranking members on this forum said blockburn is a very good project, it can 3x or more, Grin

crypto is indeed a craze haven, I know that BM, she is so rude like you said, you ask too much question you will get the biggest insult of your life Grin

LOL.
I Suppose that not all "high ranking members"! since some one Roll Eyes

On her facebook page you can find that her hometown is Lagos (nigeria) Cheesy

That already tells a lot about this Nigerian Princess.

I can't believe people are falling for scams like that.

Please don't be greedy people. Greed blinds you and you forget to verify the project before putting your money into it. You're better off gambling than sending it to these scammers.

Creating a marketing scheme is very important. Blockburn did everything wrong except the marketing part. They either paid the right people or they just paid a lot of people and some of them are the really good people. So at the end of the day, if you pay enough people to market your coin, you are going to get some other people who are interested in it. They will definitely get that kind of attention when they do marketing like that. This is not the first and it will not be the last neither.

Tomorrow I can start a project that will make a lot of money and as soon as I start start marketing from day one, I will get a lot of investment as well. That is why I think we need to learn not to trust every project even if they are giving away a lot of money.

These are just a few examples of scam projects in this market. In fact, I have encountered a lot of scam projects in 2019 and 2020. Surely we will encounter many other scam projects in the future because the current market is very difficult and many new projects will become scam because of a lack of investment budget

Any campaign that start censoring people when they ask questions about the project is likely going to end up being a scam, there are many bad examples out there, the reason most people fall victim of these is that they do fail to research about the project but I can tell you there are many reasons that make a project to fail not because it is a scam but some of these good projects failed because the developer is not a business man, does not know how to sell his project to raise fund. I need to be excited about something I want to put my money into

Making Smart Money Work

It thus seem like 2019 will beat 2020 in terms of new bounty projects, now we have bounty projects with low allocations that still scam bounty hunters, what is going on? We need a solution to this ASAP or else no single bounty hunter will remain before 2021

Getting paid is the issue, if you get paid and your tokens still gives pennies you at least get something, most bounties don't pay bounty hunters anymore, that's the fact, every bounty hunters need to change their strategy, maybe find reliable escrow or BM

Trust in new projects is already gone, investors only care about making money out of IEO projects from top exchanges, as for bounties the hope or chance of getting good rewards are getting slimmer, if things continue like this I might have to quit bounties

Choosing a good bounty campaign is now quite difficult without research. Even though many people say a good project, we still have to do research on the team behind it because when it comes to money, everyone can do anything

They may be a good project, but there is no guarantee they will pay the bounty hunter. We need to analyze the projects before joining, but we also need to be a bit lucky to join the bounty because we won't know in advance which project will pay the hunter.

Exactly, many users on this platform rated these projects especially Blockburn very high along some others which I don't want to mention name. This even gave some assurance considering the integrity of the BMs handling these projects. Unfortunately it turned out to be like this. I have long discovered that IMO is more of a scam than true, I stopped participating as well as deleted their app. I think scammers are just getting more professionals everyday.

Nothing is 100% absolute. I don't know how the low bounty allocations trend comes from and how people would see it as a guaranteed success or definitely not scam. Remember that you must do your own research and be responsible with your time and money.

Scammers knows what investors want, be very careful

Not only they know what you want but they know how you think so they give what you want and they make things appear as it is what they want, so not only doing your research but more so on what others are saying on a particular project, do not pour everything on a new project, concentrate on more established coins.

Trust is about to be scarce pretty soon especially when dealing with new projects. They started to ruin it in the past 3 years ( that was 2017 when bounty, crypto projects hit on the floor and BOOM, and then get broke after. That was a terrible thing happen in crypto and that it hurts everyone's trust. Should they care about turning it back, I have to doubt that they won't.

Maybe these projects may seem to look good on the outside but have to think about how it looks inside. That's the quest?

It's just the way crypto space works, you will never know what lies ahead until it's over, no one can predict the outcome of every bounty projects, choosing a project to promote is extremely hard than trying to invest in coins, with coins you can choose to invest in top coins, it's different in bounties

seeing Blockburn being a scam, I really didn't expect it, because I saw that the project was a good project, and it was already listed on coinmarketcap.
really disappointing, this makes crypto image worse

Not just Blockburn, even Spyce is not going side ways, distribution to bounty hunters is still months away, I don't know why these projects are doing all this nowadays, projects that looks promising turn scam in a blink of an eye

Tachyon is one of the most successful projects this year, there is no meaningful dump when bounty hunters get their rewards fairly, prices actually increase. And the telegram account displayed by the OP became one of the BM teams in Tachyon. Certainly not comparable to blockburn that looks full of engineering, a few days ago I saw someone who reported that the price dropped dramatically. see? even though the one managing the campaign is the same person, it doesn't mean the success in each campaign will be the same. We must realize this bud, cryptocurrency is very difficult to guess.

Inspire Motivate Overcome (IMO) charity initially began its work in 2006 by providing recreational and diversionary activities for young people in the Audley & Queens Park ward in an urban town called Blackburn, Lancashire. Since then it has grown its offering to work with and alongside the community; filling gaps in service where the people tell them there is need. IMO’s ethos is to support all of those who have an influence on the future generations whether that be family, peers, statutory organisations, businesses or the wider community.

Blockburn is a fully funded project, and as a result no funds will be solicited via ICOs, IEOs or any form of sales whatsoever. The project was propounded to enact a better store of value and equipped with an anti-inflationary architecture to help combat inflation induced depreciation.

mere reading about them you will want to fall for them they only have beautiful write up and imaginary mission.
It's true they look nice but they are not. It's true talk not all that gillter are gold

The two projects that you said were rubbish projects, so I didn't join the two projects, and apparently I didn't feel sorry when I didn't join the two projects, because the project was held by savage scammers and always made strange rules like those in IMO project.

that is indeed true. I have heard a lot of negative news about the project you mentioned and even many participants who have taken part in the project so far have not received tokens or the project ended in being a fraud. I survived not taking part in it at the time.

It's so surprising that Blockburn could even turn out this. That is the second time that the project will be resurrecting and I hope this time it won't be the end of it. Low allocation sometimes is to paint to investors that the price will be in shape. Doesn't really mean anything in the real world.
