Stop blaming the market and start supporting real projects. The scam projects will die out if we as bounty hunters stop supporting them. It is all in our hand's guys. We are in control of who we support.
I think most bounty hunters will just look at the bounty thread and not even at the website or Ann thread. You just cannot assume that every project will be a success.

dont blame the guy . cant you see he is still tryin his best . you dont know how it feels to hunt a bounty or what if the guy is busy and he cant make a research ? or maybe he is just simply lack of knowledge when it comes to bounties but nothing wrong in trying . we can consider it as playing a gambling , he will earn if he is lucky and loose if badluck strikes .

Even i have been scammed from my previous bounties i cant stop myself from joining bounties , cause its the only way for me to earn some extra cash before.
It's because you didn't check the dev properly before joined to them. Joining in bounty campaign especially with new token as payment has big risk you cna get scammed. You never know when the token will be worth or at least be able to trade on market. Better to stay away from any of new token bountydont blame the guy . cant you see he is still tryin his best . you dont know how it feels to hunt a bounty or what if the guy is busy and he cant make a research ? or maybe he is just simply lack of knowledge when it comes to bounties but nothing wrong in trying . we can consider it as playing a gambling , he will earn if he is lucky and loose if badluck strikes .
You said one shouldn't Expect any good to come out of airdrops, you think airdrop is that bad? I joined data token airdrop and make 70$ out of it this year ,same as blockstamp airdrop which is now 1$ per coin and I have 250 blockstamps which is 250$ from airdrop friend,I think its all about choosing skills,I join airdrops that are already trading only

How many accounts did you used to cheating those bounties? There is no way you can earn such only through 1 account and 1 airdrop
it is possible . infact his earnings is small compare to other big earners out there that also do airdrops and bounties . if im not mistaken i did earn about 1k usd worth of coin when i joined an airdrop but im kinda bit busy now and i cant seem to be lucky anymore on getting high paying airdrops .

Well, you will have to accept the fact that bounty hunting does not guarantee you anything. Right from the get-go, the campaign you are jumping into may or may not succeed at all. So you are basically aware that all the efforts you will exert may simply end up into the garbage bin. Especially when it comes to airdrop, don't expect any good that will come out of it.
As far as my experiences are concerned, a great many of them ended up as learning experiences to scrutinize more the campaigns I wish to be part of. Add to it the fact that campaigns nowadays are not as vibrant as it was in 2017 or earlier. And scams are really getting out of control.

That's very unfortunate. Things have changed and getting reward in a bounty is like having a 1% chance out of 100. I'm also still trying my luck but I'm not that enthusiastic as before because it's painful whenever I realize my 3-5 months of hardwork and spending almost 2 hours just to make all my posts decent but it was ll for nothing.
In my whole bitcointalk experience, I have only had 1 bad bounty experience,,, where the campaign paid me once, but never for the next few weeks of my posts. Then,,, I spent many months with 1 bounty manager who through no fault of their own the 2 projects until today are not listed, and never reply any of our messages. That I do not consider bad, it was just a learning.
But in between all those, I only signed up for those services I really enjoy and use. This means I did not jump in and out of campaigns, I just stayed with them until they ended,,, or I did not have one for months until I found one I liked.
So if you want higher than 1% chance of rewards, you have to change your mindset.

Personally I am also tired of participating in bounties, and not only because of the difficulty that means currently obtaining good profits from it, but because after a couple of years of being involved in this type of activities I have found that everything is very repetitive and mentally exhausting, especially when you realize you need to do twice as much work as before to get less than half of what you used to earn.
Fortunately, I was able to invest some of my profits adequately in the good times of the bounties and today I do not feel as much pressure for profit as in the beginning.

The process where by you do a bounty for a very long period of time and no much reward, paying in pennies and some of the project ended up being a scam brings about discouragements in doing other bounty, I know lots of bounties that I've done in the past that ended up paying pennies or scammed

Yes im tired of doing bounties because of not recieving payments for almost 6 months, but the truth is bounty campaigns is my way to provide the needs of my family, payments coming from bounty campaigns is a good source.of.extra income. So i wont give up in joining bounties.

I have the same feelings. Also i have a feeling that we are in era of IEO and they don't need any bounties. But if i see really good project and it has bounty i am joining it. But it is rarely now.
So far I have seen projects carrying out the IEO on the market or pre-sales, for a long time they usually held bounty campaigns.
But if not, I think that might have a negative impact on sales. Because that can cause few investors to know.

The faith in bounty campaigns was restored for me with my participation in ANY campaign, for a 2 week campaign I received 380k tokens = 320$, so I will continue to search for good campaigns, if you find one don't hesitate to reply here or pm me.
Is this the campaign you're talking about? https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bounty-4000000-any-to-share-in-just-2-weeks-anyone-new-5126333
Seems like their buy order is very low atm. You got very lucky imo, as you can see that 1 BTC is enough to cause this coin to dumped really hard (assuming everyone dumps their tokens asap). https://www.coinexchange.io/market/ANY/BTC
A decent campaign that I know recently is Veil. However, there are too many participants on that campaign at the moment, so even if you were accepted, the chance to get a decent amount of Veil is probably small. The coin is currently being traded on several exchanges, and last time I checked they were rated at $0.2 or so per coin. Not a bad price.

Tired because increasing number of scam ICO's is normal because currently to find legit projects who will give decent amount of money became too hard and i think every bounty hunter feel such as that but don't expect more or to make living from this jobs because with unpredictable salary you even cannot feed your family from bounty earnings and don't only see this forum for earnings money because besided that plenty of knowledges related to crypto you can get from this forum
April 03, 2019, 06:57:54 PM
we all feel the same way about bounty campage and airdrop, we are disappointed because maybe some of us are vacuuming for months without activity and some of them are still active, but not like before.
I was also active a few days ago after some time ago I thought we would not know the development of cryptocurrency if we left this forum and not all projects scam, fail, and pay us with their worthless tokens.
I just make a conclusion with what you say, so you just active in this forum only if your account joined in bounty campaign or signature campaign? You won't get anything if your goal is money/profit. You may won't know the character of the project because you just see this project is scam or this project is legit. It will be good if you try with yourself because there are some ways to find project scam like this thread https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/guidelines-how-to-spot-a-scam-ico-report-effectively-5004397 and you may won't know the latest information if you active just for make a comment. Find the knowledge first and you will anything.

I abandoned airdrops around February last year after I discovered that it doesn't worth much and though I have received some tokens from airdrops it is not easy to sell them. I think I have not done bounty either for more than six months now because the last bounty I did for both signatures, facebook and twitter campaign did not pay me well. And some of them has closed icos for the past one year now but there are not listed in any exchanges. Some of them in fact has been abandoned and others has been turned to scam.
These are the reasons too why i quit on bounty hunting yet rewards arent assured and even if you do get the token most of them have no really value at all which would leave you have no money or profit on the hard work you have done for a project.
It would be better to stick out on joining signature campaigns that do pay out btc where it is somehow give you guaranteed payments
even though its small but it is much more better.
your right . sig campaigns that pays in btc are more worth it because they pay are oftenly sure compare to bounty or airdrops but the only downside is the pay on btc campaigns are somehow small and i think this also the reason on why many users still prefer to chose bounty even if they know that bounty is pretty risky but as the saying said " high risk means higher rewards " which was verry true indeed . i was once an airdrop enthusiasts but i stopped doing them since last year because i also notice that i dont recieve alot of coins and if ever i recieved some , those coins can either be useless ( or no value ) and some can have a litte to less value .
Me too, once a bounty hunter but I completely stop long time ago when I'm not already earning good and most of the times the projects I have joined turn out to be scammed.Due to frustration I decide to quit completely.
