Bounty Manager For Hire!!

Quote from: ?? on ??

I laugh when I see many comments about been picky or selective when choosing projects to promote, isn't this why many missed out on the best bounties on this forum? I mean some projects looks so stupid and unreal but the rewards are so amazing 😂😂

For high rank accounts they are tend to be picky on what bounty they will join but for low rank account like us, there's no chance we will have a spot on a high paying campaign specially in the bitcoin marketplace.

actually, there is nothing wrong with participating in many campaigns in one or many projects. we are not forbidden to do so as long as we know the risks. because not all projects pay, we must be selective in choosing.
working on a bounty campaign should be different from an airdrop campaign. because the bounty has more tasks and campaign types. following a lot of projects, I'm sure it will be very inconvenient for some people to work on it.

I agree with you, we have to be more selective about the projects that we will participate in, because the possibility of the project will only be a scam. It's a shame if we are tired of thinking about being disciplined in carrying out tasks in the bounty project and at the end of the allocation we don't get anything, considering that the tasks in the bounty campaign project are more than the airdrop campaign project.

we were doing more task than airdrop program, even its running more than a month and spend our effort alot. so if we want to earn money in the end of periode we have to very selective in which campaign we have to do. research and filtering must do before we join in any campaign.

that's the problem. because sometimes most bounty hunters just become fanatical followers of the bounty manager. and when he published a bounty hunter campaign his followers would always participate regardless of the project's capabilities.
even though some bounty managers have clearly stated that they only post for the bounty thread and are not part of the manager and team. remember we should read more.

Being scammed i think is not almost the bounty hunter's fault, some projects look good, but also have the possibility of running away. Even an experienced bounty hunter crosses a ship in the ditch likely at any time. Anyway, we must be caution when we choosed a bounty project to join.

There are certain hard decisions to make and some of the bounty hunters don't follow these. Many get so desperate that they unwillingly join campaigns which looks suspicious, or being managed by users with bad reputation. One of the rules that I follow is not to join any campaign that runs for more than 6 weeks. This reduces the wastage of our effort, in case the campaign refuses to make the payment. But many of the bounty hunters are still willing to join campaigns that run for many months.

hmm quite interesting where I don't really care about the duration of the campaign, maybe in the future I can follow your way to avoid taking too long to promote a project.
but if it looks promising maybe i will still promote it Roll Eyes

Agree most of the participant is very lazy to read, they just want to read about how many task they need to do. So, when he didnt get the stake or reward because of hes fault but they can't accept it.. Then he go to the official telegram channel from the bounty they support and keep typing "Scam" Or etc.

it was the action of the new stupid bounty hunter. those who have been looking for and working on projects from the bounty campaign certainly understand how we should work.
most just vote by origin without knowing what they support.

it's true that most bounty hunters don't read the rules and only follow directions like the first time they followed it even though it's possible that every project provides different rules, usually this is done by newbie accounts which I'm also surprised they understand doing bounty social media, articles, videos and almost all other types of campaigns.

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

i think most of those registration are coming from bots and also there are people that does not read properly. all they care about is to see a thread with the title BOUNTY. they jumped in. i saw projects that ended months ago and people are still registering untill the moderator starts adding negative trust to all new registrants. most times, some people use it to fill up new spam accounts. just saying..

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...

In my experience, most of these hunters don't even speak english, let alone read what's written.
They've just been instructed to apply and do the tasks. It's very sad

I'd like to think that they are, only an idiot will join campaign without reading all the information and about the potential of the project, it's too waste of time effort and opportunity from other projects if you only know how to read the whole information about the campaign and the project, it's the fault of other bounty hunters if they got scammed, they are not doing what they should be doing.

But in real world there are hunters who are not paying attentions or simply not reading the conditions. People who only see the potential value of their work if the project will go ahead and succeed.

There are experience people who knows the value of their time, managing to read and understand all the grounds with the project before doing any actions.

This people are safer than to those who are not reading, though chance of getting scam still there but its much lesser risk.

I basically agree with what you guys say, and this one is indeed weird, but sometimes the scams are also much more sophisticated or they start out as a serious project but turn it into a scam later on. How the hell would you know that if you due diligence was on point? And what is scam? They can just spend the money on their own salaries, tell you that the project is broke in a very short time and you are left with nothing feeling scammed.

Yup, I believe there wouldn't be any other explanation better than this one, lol. Just reading through the applications, I can really sense the great need for employment or alternative ways to earn income. Because if not for this, besides the reason of people being carelessly dumb, I do not think people would easily make such a humiliating mistake. This just shows that some people are just handing out applications to any bounty thread they see without even reading it so that they can maximize the chances of having a bounty campaign that would accept them and they would only have to choose which is better by then. Well at least that's how I interpret this. Or maybe some people are just too lazy to read more which results in them just reading how great the rewards are and which campaigns in that bounty they can get into. Those are the only things that I can ever think about right now.

I believe the mistake most bounty hunters make is the failure to do research about a project. Most bounty hunters have favorite bounty mangers, so they just blindly trust this managers and participate in any project they release without doing research about the project.

You're right about hunters blindly trusting their research decision to managers they think they trust to do the due process for them. Sadly, truth remains that most of those managers don't do any due diligence on projects they take on, provided they're sure their fees will be paid. In fact, most times these BMs have even had to commence the job of managing the bounties upfront without getting payment. It's an act of desperation. This shouldn't be so. And these same ones will be quick to condemn Esau who sold his birthright over a pot of porridge. These managers who don't do due diligence and take up bounties because of the financial reward also have sold their dignity for a pot of porridge.

Do you believe in the free lunch? Certainly scammers know that only suckers think about the free-lunch;

Scammers need morons, and suckers always looking for 'free shit'; match made in heaven

FREE BITCOIN, ... yep, there's a guy handing out FREE BTC, all you got to do is send him your btc first, and he'll send you back 10x, works everytime

It's obvious either this account is a bot or the poster didn't understand a bit of the two posts they quoted because the response is completely offtrack. Are you posting merely to meet up with your weekly quota for the same pot of porridge, literary speaking?

BTW, I intentionally didn't want to snip out the long quote so that other readers can get the nitty gritty of it and see the offpoint straight up.

I try to make projects that are traded. But there were such projects that are presented on the exchange, but did not pay anything. I read company information, study the team. But in the end, I also come to the conclusion that everything depends on the success and involvement of the team. I will also say that I trusted my intuition and many times it did not fail. I bought tokens at the beginning of projects and had a good profit.

To be honest, I wouldn't really blame them lmfao. I mean just think about it, the whole crypto thing that has happened in the world and not to see years ago, just see what happened in the few months lmfao. Just imagine, what will happen when a let's say a 8th grader who has saved $100 from his pocket money, sees Elon Musk talking about Dogecoin, and then he buys Dogecoin and suddenly the price start to grow and he gets back around $4,000 genuinely Grin

wouldn't he now be super greedy? And when he says this to his friends? They will easily fall for projects promising them 10x when they have seen a genuine 40x profit lmfao Grin

so yeah, the awareness about scams in crypto should be done really in a heavy way and that responsibility is on us who knows about it I guess Tongue
