So far this year , a lot of scams have occurred in the crypto sphere ranging from projects scamming investors and as well as projects not paying hunters for their works.

What do you think can be done to counter this ill manner behaviors that has been painting cryptocurency bad?

Now the problem of scams is really urgent. Because of the hype around NFT there are a lot of newbies and new projects every day. All good projects now are improving their products and are waiting for the time when all this hype is over and they will be able to launch and have a strong community who is interested in their product as well, but not only in fast selling their token after a small growth.

Its been years from now but still there are many scam projects that exist this day. And i think its normal for people nowadays to scam people because of money. I have been in some bounty way back 2018-2019 and even invested some of my profits that i earned in 2017 but ended up losing my money because of the scam projects that i participated. It is better to have more knowledge it cryptocurrency investing before engaging in it.

I think this problem is nothing new. Many of the project CEOs do not pay participants. They gave many reasons, some ignored it when asked by participants. Recently I saw a lot of complaints that occurred in a new project, maybe you can check on the Bounty site, the Telegram group. They don't value the participants and just ignore them. Maybe there is no solution for this problem, because this problem has happened many times but not solved till now.
there are projects who didn't pay their participants and whenever someone asked about it in their social media they ban them right away, they don't have a reasonable explanation because they scammed them and they don't want that news to be spreading in their community, even investors are getting scammed, i've seen projects who made in ICO and investors bought and kept their tokens, but the owners of the project used their money to grow their platform and didn't use that token at all, and ended up successful too.

The crypto space is a largely unregulated sphere. And this is what you get in such spaces. The way forward, regulation. Humans are criminal by default and so the only deterrent is the law. Til crypto gets wholly regulated, get ready to be reading horror news of exit scams, rug pulls etc

Wherever money is spinning, swindlers will walk around in packs like wolves. They will not lose the opportunity and snatch a piece of the pie for themselves. More than half of the projects that bounty companies conduct do not always end well. Therefore, it is important to carefully select projects to participate in them.

It is very difficult to differentiate scam projects after they have many members and post them on social media, so at this time I still choose bounties managed by experienced managers, because now many new projects have deceived many managers and developers usually delay distribution of tokens for many years for many reasons, I don't think they distributed tokens because they were afraid of dumps in the market.

In my opinion, this year not many projects have experienced scammers, but if we find such bad treatment of bounty project holders, we can also report them to the moderators for fraud cases that harm investors.

I don't know if you noticed but you replied to the post from 2019 ..
Back then, there were actually many more scams on the cryptocurrency market. Investors have learned to do good research and can distinguish scam much better, which is why it is not profitable for fraudsters to invest in the preparation of all the necessary documents, because there is a high risk that even this will not be returned to them.
When it comes to bounty campaigns, hunters have learned that it is better to join campaigns managed by experienced managers, as they also know how to distinguish scams.

One of the best ways I think this can be addressed is if all are united against any project that is found to be a scammed project especially the ones that come through the forums as in, run their Bounties here. Once the Forum owners, Bounty managers team with the Hunters to mount a campaign against any project that scam hunters in any way, by hitting them via every social media pointing out how they have scammed BMs and Hunters most especially, I believe we will have less of issues like that happening with bounty campaigns.

Yes, 2018-2019 is a so bad time for bounty hunters and also for investors. There were too many scam ICO projects at that time. I still remember that I ever stopped working bounties for a while because of no earning at all. I am sure you also did the same as me, reducing the number of following bounties or even stopped temporarily. A better era of bounty just started after IEO became trending to replace ICO. Till now, most bounty hunters prefer to join bounties provided by IEO projects.
That's obvious, but when the IEO trend is running, there are also many scammers who take advantage of it by creating several IEO projects that are eventually listed on bad exchanges like P2PB2B, it also indicates that the scammers never stop setting traps for everyone people in the crypto space.

not only this year because this problem has been going on for a long time and until now fraud still exists. and nothing can stop it. and since I joined the bounty campaign until now there is nothing I can do, but I can only surrender and forget the wasted time. and start following better campaigns. so my advice before joining the bounty campaign then you have to look at many things so that you are not deceived.
2018 is the highest rate of scam project base on my obervation and experienced eventhough how carefull we are on selecting bounty but still we can't avoid and maybe thats the reason why there are now less bounty hunters but it doesn't stop me because i always look for opportunity regardless the time wasted.

Overcoming the many scamers in the crypto space is very difficult, when one can be overcome, another will appear, we can only judge which project has the smallest possible scam.
Yes, eradicating fraudsters in the crypto space is a very difficult thing because they are also smart enough to create fake projects that are almost similar to the real ones, thus making some people and investors trapped into it.

The development of cryptocurrencies inevitably entails the spread of scam projects. So the process is endless
I was a little surprised when you said the development of cryptocurrencies definitely requires the spread of fraudulent projects, so I just want to ask you, why is it necessary? while the project scam makes victims and losses for investors who enter there.

I have participated in so many bounty campaigns, the selection is still based on who the manager is in favor of it. It is very reasonable that we have been bound along with our time and energy in completing all the tasks that have been specified in the rules of a campaign that we have registered/followed, meaning that after everything is appropriate our schedule is not in vain and we get rewarded even though the distribution is delayed and sometimes changes and decreases.

Many of the good bounty managers are no longer active in this forum. The problem is that whenever something goes wrong with the campaign, the bounty manager receives the entire blame. The users don't really care whether the bounty manager can do anything within his power or not. In many such instances, the campaign manager may also be a victim. After a while, many of the honest bounty managers decide not to participate in such campaigns. And the new projects opt for relatively inexperienced campaign managers. And this opens a can of worms, as most of these new managers may not be honest.

The reason to run a bounty is that the project's name is repeated again and again on social media so many people are interested to check the project.
Let's take an example if you see any project's name daily on social media. I am sure you must check it out once. So in this bounties are profitable for projeccts.

crime often happens everywhere, in some crypto projects it has also happened very often so that many people have experienced severe disappointment, but we as lovers of the crypto world should not be discouraged, I believe even though it is difficult this can be overcome by working together  eradicate it and narrow the space for scammers.

What we have to do together is no longer follow every project they put out, never give trust again to those who deliberately commit fraud, so that no matter what they do, no one wants to follow.

We have to give a big deterrent effect to people like this, so that in the future there will be no more people who want to deceive anyone, the cryptocurrency world is indeed very vulnerable to the behavior of those who like to cheat, especially for beginners who don't really know about the crypto world. and projects offered.

To keep an eye on them, we need to work together to control their ridiculous behavior, if any of us find any fraud committed by them, then report it to the public so they can discuss the decision to be taken, so that everyone will be saved from their evil deeds.

This is the function of discussing in the forum, so that when there are new things related to fraud, we already know and have the option not to get caught up in their project, this option will be born if we can find out first, before they make a real lie.
