Topic: Quiet Bounty Time (Read 560 times)
I still see a lot of good bounty running, and I also agree that in 2020 the market will be a lot harder because the corona virus has caused this market to crash. But I still believe that if you work hard and participate in bounty then I believe that you will get some good bounty

Merit has also reduced participation by over 50%, as many many hunters had multiple accounts.
I believe coinlocket found one guy with over 1000 alt accounts
Thousands of accounts were being used as alt account from a single human owner to farm the bounty rewards. Thats why the DT members decide to negative trust every account which was detected to be cheating campaigns of being sold accounts. However merit did make it a stalemate for many such cheaters. Unable to rank up these account by shitposting they are now of no use since it is tough to earn merits just like that.I believe coinlocket found one guy with over 1000 alt accounts
I think it is better this way. But the ICOs may find out new methods to kep bounty hunters still the forum is less plagued by such users.
Bounty durations are mostly from 4weeks higher so if you are busy promoting a bounty project now before it ends another good project will show up, it's really not something to complain about, it's better to see good projects than bunch of fake projects
Well you forget to mention how long before you will get the payment and there are also project that have a locking period which is make it more difficult to hunter's .
The campaign is not the problem but payment duration you will get and how long you will wait to get it.

Actually, one more thing has happened since 2017.
Bumping of threads has been less and less effective due to changes introduced to forum.
So less projects jump to the top nowadays, which looks less chaotic than it was before
That is because the news rule of the forum itself, 2017 hadn't been applied for merit system right? If we compare now, bounty hunter who have a lot of alt account will be reduced. Bumping of threads has been less and less effective due to changes introduced to forum.

As you can see on reputation thread as well, there are some user who report alt account and I got suprised that one person can hold at least 10 alt account to promote one project. This is way there is no bump poster anymore.
This is true.

Let's try to promote projects that will be easier to become successful so we can get paid when promoting them, you can use GitHub to confirm how serious a project team are, so many new projects stole their idea from old or dead projects

I agree here. Yes, we are not seeing thousands of scams every day, we are now seeing just tens come out every day but that does not mean it has killed scams. I personally think the percentage of scam projects have grown. Good projects simply aren't coming out anymore. The good ones we see are already there for a while.
Scams are always there. They are a part and parcel of life and though one can be careful to invest or not scams will not reduce ever. A project can be good but it may fail due to other reasons because developing a projects needs strength in finances, marketing and token economics. Every project that failed started with a motto and a roadmap to follow but did they manage to make enough money always?The thing is that speculation drew a crowd at one time but it was not based on anything concrete which is why they all failed. From the bounty hunters perspective a failed project and a scam are one and the same.
scam projects greatly reduced ? no i dont think so but the scams are actually growing more stronger the popular cryptos became . a scam projects does not run out of idea but they can just copy paste other existing project. legit projects are the one that are having a hard time to create a new quality one because many projects are now released and almost every idea are now already used up .
also there is no bull run yet . the price increase happen this year was not yet breath taking , that is also the reason on why bounties were still quite .

Previously when these changes were not there the first page of bounty section used to be filled with new posts. Now it is only 75% of the last bumped threads. Truely the craze for bounty has reduced but there are still some fools going for them. This is a side effect of the low income countries who have bots and alt accounts to spam the forum and get paid for such transgressions.Bumping of threads has been less and less effective due to changes introduced to forum.

Good bounty managers like you keep the spam in check which I appreciate a lot as well as reporting alt accounts.
Sometimes, I also check the bounty section but the new projects listed there don't worth the time to promote. Instead of promoting the low-paying project, I prefer to do something else in my spare time, the promised bounty reward doesn't even have the fixed value after the end of bounty campaign.
LOL well said. I hope some of the bounty hunters who have spammed the forum till date actually read these posts. They should bring their eyes out from deep underground to the reality that bounty hunting days are long gone. But with a place where free money is being promoted or was promoted at one time, it is normal for them to think there is some free money still left.Actually the concept of free money is a flawed one. The more people fall for it the more their data is being sold off to shady companies. Still who cares to read these topics?
There are still people who do read up these kind of topics but excluding to those people who are still doing some bounty stuff.
They do proceed on things on whats into their minds and you are right they are still hoping for that free money after all these
years where they do treat it up that it was just like wayback in 2017.

I agree to this one. Going back to those days where restriction or new rules havent been added yet where most projects
do always try to bump up their threads into the top for more exposure.You can really see the competition between projects
but now its totally different.

Agreed. I always joined campaign in that section, some I got lucky and some are purely wasted time. The best one is to join campaign that has leverage profit such as btc paid. We know that it decrease in value but one thing is for sure, it will always recover no matter what.They should bring their eyes out from deep underground to the reality that bounty hunting days are long gone.
Maybe they cant just move on with the previous christmas season of airdrop and bounty. I hate to admit but bounty isnt the same anymore and hence use our free time to do more beneficial to our self development like trading and reading stuff that increases our knowledge.

New bounty projects keeps appearing since last week but most of them are crap and the few good ones have low allocations, to make a 1000$ in bounty hunting this days now seem impossible, all that's left now is how lucky one can get
All of them are crap. If you want to make money you should start trading the coins you already have. Bounties were never supposed to make the participant rich. They are a giveaway for the ones who are willing to promote the project and the team would appreciate that by paying them some of their tokens. They also promoted the project and got the price to increase and made a profit. But it went away from that core ideology to a method to defrauding the project with more than one account and trying to dump the coins as soon as possible to get a good return.Its about time you all forget about bounties. There are so many methods to make money nowadays if you have the skills.

Every single bounty project that I like to promote exclude signature campaign and I don't like social media campaigns excluding telegram only, few bounty manager still takes signature campaign very seriously..
It's better to do better research on projects before promoting because I can easily spot some scam projects already in bounty section

Things are starting to look good in this forum pertaining new bounty projects but do not expect good times like in 2017, gone are those days and they ain't coming back, remember scammers are still on here, do research on projects before promoting.
New bounties are still here but the budget compared to 2017 campaign is different. More campaign now are focusing on more social campaign instead of signature. I am bit of signature guy and less of a social campaign so I prefer btc paid even though sometime the payment is quite low still more secure. New bounty projects keeps appearing since last week but most of them are crap and the few good ones have low allocations, to make a 1000$ in bounty hunting this days now seem impossible.
Thats becausr there is not much liquidity. I see the launch of hydax an exchange platform. I cant blame them to offer such small amount of rewards with a three week campaign. I think the amount is pretty small but for a starter project thats a lot of helo to them. Imagine its price if the project go to moon. Dont expect, projects will allocate big to hunters as if its a priority in a crypto business. Jump to:
