Bounty Hunters Don't Read

This thread Explains it

However, won't be surprised to see another application below Roll Eyes

lol

They refuse to read the thread very well and understand the rules

They are very much in a haste to earn and that is why they earn up being scammed.

They sheepishly follow existing application

They refuse to doubt when it sounds too good to be true

***** Just imagine application kept coming in, in an April Fool's Thread.
Are these applications from bots...

This is still very relevant today and will still relevant as long as bounty hunters are not responsible enough to do research on the project they are promoting, I even see some bounty hunters getting a red trust, for continuing to promote reported scam projects and they are not aware of it because they are not following projects that they are promoting.

Then they wonder why they did not get their stakes or get tagged, that is because they are not visiting or engaging in the project's chat group and they are not frequenting the scam report to check if the project they are promoting has a scam report.

If they pay attention to the development of the project they are supporting, they would know the latest update, and that includes about its reputation. The thing is, if we support a scam project, our account gets tagged and we will never have a good opportunity to work again.

Therefore, it's very important to study, follow, and monitor the project if we care so much about our bitcointalk account and any platform that we have like a social media accounts. It's a simple logic, if you promote a project with bad reputation, then you also have a bad reputation.

Bounty hunters continue to promote campaigns even if they have been accused of being a scam because they do not conduct research or visit the scam sections.

Sometimes the reason isn't about less research, but the bounty hunters are interested in the payment. For example, we can see 1xbit.com signature campaign, many people still joined because of the payment in BTC and with a big amount of money. The participants are aware of the negative trust got by the 1xbit account on BTT and they also know this project got a scam accusation.

first of all, i have to start by saying that i don't care about 1xbit and i am not here to defend them, but i have been using their website from 2017, and i didn't have a problem with it, except for like 3 times where i made a deposit but i didn't receive anything but in all of the three times i emailed them and they answered and i got my money showing on my balance, so 0 problems with them making bets and withdrawals, that's what made me join their campaign, i joined based on my own personal experience, i don't need to do research and believe a new opened bitcointalk account with his scam accusation, but they gave me negative feedback, i removed my signature and avatar and told the guy the reason why i joined since i've been using their website for 4 years i didn't have to look things up, but he refused to listen to me and thought im defending them even though i was defending my own reputation on the website, and since he was playing the role of a god, i had no other choice than to keep my signature and avatar.

Yes, Most bounty hunters only care about getting paid and they don't care about the reputations of the product or website they promote. yobit is also the best example on this, Thousands joins even the big guys due to high rate of pay and the instant payment they offer. But everyone knows that yobit is sketchy and trust issues among bitcointalk communities.

Yobit is not a scammer, and I wonder why many people on this forum call them scammers,
even though I use Yobit also always succeed, withdrawals and deposits always arrived on time,

I'm also aware of the yobit's reputation, and I would not call them a scammer as personally I am not scammed. I'm using the site from time to time and has not faced a single problem, in fact they process withdrawals instantly and that is only based on my personal experience.

Quote

yes indeed Yobit always trades coins that are not clear and are considered scams, but that's all depending on the user,
if you want to trade then trade, if not then avoid it.

I consider it a high-risk asset, or probably a scam one, but I really avoid these coins but unfortunately, some newbies don't know so they'll trade it and later they'll face a problem due to drop or volume which would make them a bag holder.

Maybe they're bots or probably they just doesn't care and join as much bounty as they can so there is a high chance that they would earn good tokens. Some of them really don't read and could really waste their time.

We can't blame them since participating to bounty campaign is one of the easiest way to earn profit since you only need an effort and time to earn. Nothing to invest that's why some of them take risk even the project is scam.

It just clarifies one thing that most of bounty hunters are in hurry perhaps they are applying on multiple bounties thats why they don't read what's written in bounty thread. Its hilarious to read that and people anyway applying

Code:

Campaign starts on today ends today
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5327679.0 [\code]

;D

Yeah many Bounty hunters don't even read the description and jump to campaign to catch as much as Bounty tokens. There are bad days and good days in trading but the majority of Bounty token trading pairs are dead on listed exchanges.

They won't be careful because nothing will lose from them. Bounty hunters can join a lot of bounty at the same time and they will not spend any amount for that, if they will make money on some bounties, then well and good but if they got scam, they just have to move on. Actually what needs to be improved is the crowd sale world, it should be regulated so scammers will not play here by using the bounty hunters to scam investors, that would not help to build a good reputation in the market and for the bounty hunting community.

One of the reasons on why they don't really care at just make out some blind shot and hoping that the program that they have just joined would really paid them up.

Some would really be mindful in joining because time spend and resources spent isn't something that you can just ignore on because wasting time on a garbage project is not really appealing at all.

This is why DYOR would really be important even if you don't waste up some money but time is really very precious.

Before CEO of the project announcing the project, marketing team come with offers depending on the company budget. If the boutny rewards are higher than 5% of the total allocated funds, it is very dangerous game for both parties.

The majority of bounty hunters simply want to have as many campaigns as possible. They are unsure if the project they are promoting has market potential, especially those in social media bounty. Bounty hunters continue to promote campaigns even if they have been accused of being a scam because they do not conduct research or visit the scam sections. Do your own research and take a look on white paper to prevent from scams.

Yeah, This is the common logic of bounty hunters which is effective for those people who don't know how to research the project. Not all people has the knowledge and comprehension to do there own research that's why joining as much as possible is there best chance to hit a legit campaign.

Most of the Bounty hunters have turned successful with the previous bull trend. By that time more ERC 20 projects gave good return. In particular those are days when people aren't much aware of cryptocurrencies. During those days every project bumped high and later went out of usage. Maybe the same scenario could happen again.

It's more on the ICO, the success of the ICO where anyone can raise funds made the bounty hunters successful in the past, I won't deny, I made a lot of money that time as well but the same opportunity was not anymore present in the current. Now, it's more on bounty scams but there are still bounty campaigns that would pay, but not as good during the popularity of ICO.

All bounty campaigns involve risk, which is why they are usually much better paid than campaigns paid every week (I think about signature campaigns here). If someone takes part in a bounty campaign, they must agree that the risk that the project will fail or that it is a scam is much greater than in a BTC paid campaign. It is simple - if you do not want to take risks then do not participate in bounty campaigns.

The rules bounty hunter usualy does :
1. Asking about bounty in the project main telegram.
2. Asking when distribution without reading announcemment.
3. Copy and paste article without understanding what the project is about.

The other two rules are fine with me, but I am not comfortable with the first rule. If the ICO requires a bounty campaign to promote itself, then it should be made public. If the promoters are hiding this fact from the public, then it is a big red flag for me. Trust is very important in the cryptocurrency sector, because the investors are pouring their hard earned money in to this project even before the development is even 10% complete. Under these circumstances, it will be in bad faith, if the details about the bounty campaign is hidden from them.

Since there are many people join bounty and they dont understand the rules. They only want quick money by creating shity article and video. The most craziest thing is bounty manager accept those kind of article and video. Check the video they made most of it is reading webaite and whitepapper. I am not surprised if the client wont pay such video and article.

The rules bounty hunter usualy does :
1. Asking about bounty in the project main telegram.
2. Asking when distribution without reading announcemment.
3. Copy and paste article without understanding what the project is about.

By understanding the three points you mentioned, usually they are still doing scams and there is no guarantee that they will definitely pay because they can do whatever they want, the bounty campaign will look good when the developer has given the coin to the bounty campaign manager or escrow with the bounty manager so that the guarantee will paid.

the first is because of the bad bounty manager, and the second one is choosing the wrong bounty,
that's why many are affected by scammers, I've participated in several bounties and the results were bad,
that's how it is, we as bounty hunters are indeed the risks

We can also assume that the bounty managers were also scammed and they do not know anything about the scam itself until the bounty is over and the payments were never made. But of course we cannot also blame the bounty participants, who wants to earn crypto by working and not investing. I have participated in many bounties, some good ones and others and many others are bad ones. Those that do not pay, or they have paid but you cannot exchange their tokens or coins into fiat currency, and also those who have canceled themselves midway the bounty campaign. Yes, many hard times for the bounty hunters, then if you get scammed that would hurt them much further.
