Topic: Stay away from Chimpion! (Read 508 times)

I am like you, really disappointed and lost faith in bounty0x. They manage the entire bonus campaign, I think they worked with the project and proceeded to reduce our money. Bounty hunters are really pitiful compared to the effort. There are many shady bonus projects and failures on bounty0x, this is why I don't use this platform regularly.

This is the most disappointing bounty campaign I have participated in 2019 and this just goes to show how dubious the team really is, if they can go to great lengths to pull if such a scam, every single person who participated in the Bitcointalk campaign is disappointed with them including myself.

I sincerely feel your pain. What? 2$? What's for? That's not cool at all. It's not cool  by any chance

I would have to agree on you with that since i felt the hard work of doing it and it turns out that all your hard work will be gone in thin air just like that. This kind of people doesn't like to put their feet on your own dirty shoe because they were taking advantage of their participants and to the future participants too. That's why i don't like to waste my time anymore on this bounty hunting since at the end of the day you were just doing their job for like almost free.

I have bad experience with bounty0x platform. At first they are listing everything, no matter the quality of the project, secondly, the reward for doing tasks is too small. 

I understand the frustration and agony you might have faced. I largely blame the hotel for not using all it has at disposal on blockchain to secure a better contract. I hope the bounty0x team will learn and improve on this because it matters most to their community

The problem with Bounty0x is that they should not have allowed Chimpion to revise anything. They should stipulated in their terms of service that their work is final. It appears that it wasn't the case here. 

Really not good for a platform like bounty0x, hope they will get it right soonest before ending up losing their participants.

The other side of the problems is related to B0x. I could agree on this since they have a poor sheriff system. I can get an extraordinary reward from one project then immediately after they can easily give poor. Same style of writing, same design etc. And also, their disputing system simply doesn't work. If you dispute some results then you have to follow it because they don't re-review. In this case, they don't much to blame but the platform has its own issues, too.

This is important. I don't know other problems related to B0x but in this one, they tried hard as I know but through the whole period of time, Chimpoin team kept creating nothing but the problems. And they end up with this crappy rewards.

One of the inevitable troubles of bounty hunting
Both bounty platform or project can compromise on agreement without fear of  reprieve

You need to check up on bounty0x well; it has complains recently; dyor always

There have been a lot of complains on Bounty0x, most especially on their reward system. I was formerly using it and writing articles for them, but I was not satisfied with what I got on some bounties. Although, I am not saying and concluding that they are dubious, but if there are complains on the projects managed by them, then they need to check themselves.

You catch the Main Point.
I am not Bounty0x supporter nor trying to compare it with other platforms. But here I am  arguing with what I got, and the main topic here is actually Chimpion Project Problem not the Bounty0x Platform.

Sorry to say this think, but I saw a lot of comments that actually made Bounty0x as the main suspect and then compared it to other platforms.

I can't understand the project team. They perfectly understood that now there is a blossoming of the market. They could raise a lot more money and provide financial support for their coin. But for some reason the team decided to cash in on the bounty hunter. Apparently ICO really died.

I was about to say exactly this, he should just take what he has been offered in good faith and learn from it. Many of these bounty managers and developers are no longer straightforward. I had friends that did this very chimpion and bountyOX/Chimpion cannot authoritatively conclude that every single individual did poorly.

Also bountyOX is such a shady place right now, I won't even advise any friend to work with them unless you're battle ready for the headaches you will face.

I'm reading a lot of complaints in that bounty platform.
I hope bounty hunters stop using their services and find a worthwhile one.
It seems that they don't really care with their participants at all.
Maybe, as long as they can extract money from those crap projects, they will launch their bounty and even if they blatantly know that they are heading to be scam project.

But the problem is when most of the developers were doing this thing at the end of the campaign and that gives disadvantage to the bounty hunters. why they are not willing to audit it at the middle of campaign and why should they do that at the end of campaign? that question is totally make sense.

From what the OP has just said, it is a clear indication that most bounties are waste of time,  which is why people are shying away from it and opting for either trading or investment.
Chimpion also behaved like other projects I know of. Which shows that they are scammers, although their fundraising was done successfully.
Very soon, it will loose volume and that will mark the end.

Bountyox has really proven to be a worthless platform and it's so unfortunate that Chimpion identified with them. Thus is not their first time doing this but I guess this particular one with Chimpion is the worst. Anyways I have already said my goodbye to them

Unfortunately it is not uncommon that the project team throws bounty hunters. Very often they get quite a small amount for their work, because the project team changes the rules or even worsens the situation of bounty hunters. I think that you simply better forget about this situation and continue to work further.

Developers are not complete fools. They at least gave you a certain amount of rewards. It's usually worse. You knew you were risking your time and you were willing to do it.

I don't intend to blame Bounty0x since they have a very active Telegram channel and very hard-working and helpful team. Also, they have just declared after this Chimpion situation for which they had been struggling for a long time, they will only accept pre-funded campaigns. This is a fine move and this means they care about bounty hunters as much as they don't go into issues. I actually thought about what else B0x could do about the situation but couldn't end up with a solution. This is completely caused by the bad intentions of Chimpion team.

Yes, bountyhive is very reputable when it comes to token distribution and they very professional when dealing with bountyhunters complains or issues.
What I actually like mostly about the platform is that they escrow tokens for a campaign managed by them, and they distribute them less than two weeks upon completion of the bounty.

Most importantly, you should not despair. After all, you can wait a little time. Now the market is behaving very well. And the capitalization of more coins has increased greatly. I think you'll be lucky.

Bounty0X must have entered an agreement with chimpion that they will have the final say regarding the stakes given to each article submitted. I would not really blame chimpion here but bounty0x for not protecting its hunters. They appeared amateurs with what chimpion did.

Nothing supernatural happened. I know at least 50 of the same projects that treated their community the same way. But never mind. I think you've created a very bad background information with which they will be very hard to fight.

Yes, you are right. The main problem is not their twist about reviewing. The problem is that they declare every work as crappy and worthless. This is not the case for other campaigns. This is the first time I encountered on Bounty0x since I reviewed the projects myself before I decide to join. Chimpion was on Mercatox when they conducted the campaign on B0x and I thought it couldn't be a scam or shady project but clearly, I was wrong.

It's you and kind of people who promoting shit even if the reward is low, don't promote a shit project and make your signature space more worthy. You will not regret at the end. People are getting hundreds of USD in BTC paid signature campaign, I am getting ~$30 from my current campaign, so why you should promote a shit campaign. Leave it and try out a good one.
Moreover, the market is broken at the moment which is why the reward is low.

I believe that nowadays bounty campaigns in general are not so profitable, because if two years ago, you could easily grab 500 USD from a twitter campaign, right now people are working for 20 bucks worth of tokens for a signature campaign.

I wouldn't support you on this becasue bounty0x is one of the very best of bounty campaign platform that allow transparency and have the mind of the at hand and not the other way round. I have been there so many time and have some proves to show fro my hunting with the platform. Although not saying there's no element of untrustworthy but that's very minimal.

Based on the results of my personal observation, this is what I caught (Correct Me if I'm Wrong).

The Chimpion Bounty Campaign is implemented on the Bounty0x Platform.

After being completed and verified by Bounty0x Sheriff, the Chimpion Team decide to re-verify the results. and the results of the verification carried out by the Chimpion Team is they (Chimpion) decided to reduce the bounty budget due to the low quality of the campaign results (as stated in the Bounty0x blog).

That story is same like us a bounty hunter, i know what it feel and it happened again and again.
Sometimes i tired to be a bounty hunter and want to leave it and get a real work in offline.
But when i looking bounty it so legit and i am back to be a bounty hunter.
The real problem is, we can't moving on to this jobs.

They are making money from the bounty hunter's works, they should protect their interest too, I never participated in any bounty platform before, you cannot see how many are you are participating in the campaign, you cannot even calculate your stakes, you are at their mercy.

Bounty = too much effort and time to waste
Yes, it's not all bounty but the chance you find great bounty may be around 1/100 - 1/1.000.000

But if you still afford to loss your time for something profitable, you can continue the new one and forget about Chimpion

Since you do got 1 of 35 then considered that you are on a good path.Just moved on and dont let your pride do pushes you to justify regarding on your work.
If this is your first time experience on those shady projects shady rewards systems for your good work you believe on then get used to it since these things are
rampant on this Bounty whole thing.

Why? Didn't he work for them? He deserves the reward and they must pay him the total rewards. This is a shady project.

OP, you must not join this shady project going on outside bitcointalk because they can easily scam you. I have had the same experience with another bounty platform, better you participate campaign from the forum.

Not all Bounty Campaign is perfect and actually a few of them back then in the days where Bounty campaign are a new hope for certain people that are just starting in the forum and can not join any Bitcoin campaign back then, And certainly, right now I can only say in this Bounty right now you are lucky enough if they would give you $2 worth token for your service than to not get anything at all, I have done that are experience it, And in the end a large amount of ICO and tokens are just display to your wallet and doesn't have any value at all.

With the chimpion team bypassing bounty0x and revising all the rewards, they are basically implying that bounty0x is not good enough in rating articles related to their project. I'd be interested to know the response of bounty0x after what happened here.

it really very disappointing cos the platform that handled this project was one of my best but have noticed that they have decided to be very greedy and deny hunters their earnings which is a bad dent to them

very disappointing indeed, but it usually happens after several things that occur during the listing process and after the listing process. which makes the token exchange rate go down, and automatically the bounty party can cut our reward. or full reward, but a low exchange rate.

I stopped using this platform it's not worth it because they are not transparent, don't have a spreadsheet and they don't really care on their bounty hunters they only look for a fee these projects are going to give to them, people should stop using this platform

Bounty0x platform decided to carry on all the future bounties as pre-funded. I guess this is a good move but there is another backdoor for this: Swapping. I'm loosing fate, though.

Pealse, don't believe with any campaign that runs at the bounty platform they are not getting verified and there was a huge chance for participants to be deceived.
this is not the first time and so many platforms have been deceiving us. 0xbounty platform looks a very bad platform.

The point is that they did this move months after they got the promotions from us in advance. And the most annoying part is their humiliating behaviour.

Can you consider reading the main thread, the point is rewards are thrashed and no criteria was used after they Chimpion themselves but a scale for marking.
It was believed that it would have been fair if they had said due to lack of funds we paying low, or due to future bounties which they are planning we can pay all but we will restructure, not to come out and call this guy's as low creators and whatever, I mean who does

No, it's not the first time. But the problems you listed above might not be problems if the cconditions declared at the beginning. I can wait frozen tokens or I'd have a chance to choose if the exact amount stated at first. But what Chimpion did is simply not paying after they got all the attention in advance. This is far from being ethical.

If its your first time when projects cut the bounty pool or rewards then you might be lucky . Because almost every project currently cut the bounty pool at the end of bounty and some even freeze tokens for half year or even more while token price gets dumped really hard to underground , then they release the tokens =D Usually projects like that don't last long and have no future in my opinion . People spend alot of time doing bounties and got thrown with brick in face . Now its time for project's that do that to fade away

Yes, I've already learnt my lesson but I want everybody to beware of it either.

Bounty0x teams are the one to take full responsibility for all this mess ,how can a bounty platform allow such a thing to happen ? This is why I don't use other bounty platform except bountyhive which never disappoint me ,either ways you've learned your lesson

There might be some complaints about Bounty0x time to time but in this regard, they have nothing to do apparently. It is crystal clear that Chimpion team didn't want to pay and made it problematic and humiliating for us.

it is quite a dissappointing campaign orchestrated by bounty0x, one of the worst bounty platoform that cares less or nothing about the hunters.

This token started a bounty campaign on Bounty0x 7 months ago and promised to pay with its token BNANA as dollars equal. This is what they promised in article campaign.



I wrote down an article and deserved a great degree of reward. However, after the end of the campaign in late March, Chimpion team started to create problems. I asked in B0x group frequently with others and the answer was always related to issues about Chimpion team.




Yesterday they finally decided to distribute the rewards and guess what? I got 2$ tokens instead of 75$ (actually 3 since there is B0x commission). There are too many others like me and when we asked about it the team answered as this is what your work deserved. We investigated it and found out that Chimpion team rereviewed the works and decided that they are worthless.

Now I want to ask;

1- I'm in this for a long time and I got serious rewards. How could my work be worthless and crappy that much when I got serious rewards from the bounties here and B0x before? One in thirty-five? Seriously?

2- Are the Bounty0x sheriffs amateurs? Did they give credit shitty works?

I must also add that when we asked about this situation, the team of that Chimpion were completely insincere. They humiliated us by implying that your works are worthless but keep trying, smiling emojies etc. Made me sick.
