........... they hold reward, but project did not raise enough funds and decided not to continue development.
This is one of the risk, sometimes it even take months to promote the project, and what bounty hunters get? Nothing, because the project failed and the effort will just be wasted.
We can really do nothing but to be more patient everytime we joined bounty campaigns that only end up as failure. Of course the developer itself and the team behind the project surely aims for success but unfortunately, the project itself failed. So as a bounty hunter, there is no room for regrets and frustrations because of efforts not being paid. Instead, move on and go find another one. Who knows this time might be very profitable for you.

I've experienced it in several projects, and until now there are still some projects that haven't paid me yet, from that you have to always research the project you want to participate in, because projects that are already listed on the stock exchange, they don't necessarily pay bounty hunters, because I experienced it myself

be a smart bounty participant in order to avoid the problems you say, such as the project not paying bounty participants or stalling for time as if bounty hunters are considered by them as parasites.
We have the option to work on the bounty so use research before entering into it, try to follow the bounty held by the best manager at the forum or the bounty has been registered at the market even though the prizes are small but to my knowledge, at least we are paid for our work as bounty hunters.

It is fine as long as the project owner pays the bounty hunters and never swap the token after the payment is done.  What is not fine is the project owner tends to delay the payment and at the end never pay at all, while others distribute the payment then afterwards create a new token and require the bounty hunters to do KYC in order to swap their token which is very unfair to the point of being scammy.

Bounty hunters are those who enthusiastically join a campaign to promote a specific project to earn only a small amount of money from crypto.

But unfortunately, many project if not failed, they just give promises to the hunters to pay for their hard works after a couple of months which is still good to the part of the hunters and can do nothing but wait for the exact date that the project has promised.

Unfortunately, when the exact date comes, the project still refuses to send the reward for the hunters for the reason that they need to change their website and not keeping their promise. Anyway the website has nothing to do with the distribution of rewards, right? They promised to distribute rewards for ETH addresses, but not for accounts on the website.

This is very disappointing in the part of the bounty hunters, but what the hunters can do? Still nothing, but always hope and wait.

I believe a great project will be successful if they have a good marketing strategy with the full support of their team. The reward they provide for hunters is only a small percentage to promote their project. That is why I think they should give what is for the hunters, whether their project is successful or not.
Although hunters also wish the project success, of course.

What do you think guys, I am right or not?
Now there is a new excuse in the market which effects only bounty distribution and that is 'ethereum transaction fee' is high. Strangely it only matters when they have to distribute the bounty rewards and it is just another lame excuse in my opinion because they can bundle up transactions to reduce transaction costs and there are many services available for this even if the team cannot do it themselve so all these are lame excuses.

In fact, there are several ways to avoid such a thing, namely by finding a bounty that has escrow. however, a trusted escrow will distribute their existing tokens according to a predetermined schedule. unfortunately, sometimes a project that uses escrow doesn't have that many allocations. well, it is an option. besides, this is all one of the risks of becoming a bounty hunter.

It is hard to find a project that will agree to transfer bounty reward before bounty started/ended. So far I have seen only two managers who escrow bounty rewards (if we talk about bounty with reward payment in projects altcoins). They are julerz12 and bounty detective. First one did not manage campaigns for a long time, second - "it is complicated" like facebook says.

Escrowing reward is not always a solution. I remember when manager held rewards, but waited eth from project for distribution. Or situation with Bounty Detective - they hold reward, but project did not raise enough funds and decided not to continue development.

Thing might take a different turn for bounties very soon, years ago when bounties was still a big deal it was ICO days where almost all new projects are raising funds easily and also altcoin season in 2018 was a big boost for all new projects even the shitcoins too, now same thing might happen again
i don't think so, that was the reason why projects were successful ICOs but now, a lot of good projects who can raise millions of dollars don't need to make a bounty campaign, only some few projects that are kinda successful do bounties, others just don't need it.
Some projects are still need to create the campaign as promotional purpose and did you see that before there were bunch of legit bounties launched on this forum? I can mention some like ludena, injective protocol, hex, stobox and many more. that's enough to prove it.

therefore we as bounty hunters must research the project before joining the bounty program, there are even projects that are successful in token sale but they haven't paid hunters until now like (envion, tokenpay, etc)
therefore just enjoy as a bounty hunter, don't expect much nore on the projects you are promoting.
if they later pay the hunter's it is a fortune.

Yes. I think there is no need to complain in times we don't receive tokens as rewards because we know in the first place that being a bounty hunter has no guarantee to earn profits or rewards either we got scammed or the project failed to reach its market cap. But it's always a blessing to be rewarded though after all our hard works and efforts for the success of the project.

The bounty hunter needs to do some research on his own, to find out whether the project is capable of achieving the soft-cap or not. Sometimes, the projects keep soft-cap at unviably high levels, and as a result of this the project fails to get investment. The bounty hunters suffer in the end, as no one is going to reimburse all the hard work they put in to promoting the project.

It is sad that there is nothing that a bounty hunter could do after the bounty is over,
They would just wait for their rewards that is the downside of what they choose and that is exactly why I don't want to join bounties anymore except if a bounty would pay with crypto that already have a value like BTC or ETH.
Most of the bounties now are just scam so it is really hard for bounty hunters to earn from it anymore.

Having or finding a good project nowadays that are really payable and true with their promises are very hard to find because there are projects that are really deceiving which can make you believe to be legitimate at first glance and observation but once the project ended, it all came into realization to be a scam one and all your efforts and time exerted all came out to be useless for you have been fooled by the team developer itself. This is not already a new issue for after the bull run that happened way back 2017 where projects are very rich and payable, projects turn out to have certain issues of not being payable and gets to be a scam which is a very disappointing part for the bounty hunters.

Bounty hunters will come and go, they'll be here if the demand is good and they'll leave if not, just like the current situation, bounty hunting is not anymore a profitable kind of job, but in the past it was, some even made a fortune of it. Therefore, I suggest to wait for the right timing, if bounty hunters were hurt by the promises of the team project's we have to consider also the damage the investors will have to take. ||

They lose money, us, effort only.

I had the same thing happened to me so many times in a row right now. I have even faced with a project who promised that they will pay and they PAID, great so far right? Like that is what should suppose to happen? Then they just changed their project to a new token, instead of the token they gave you for free (which is not free, you worked for it) they are now using some other token and the token you have received will worth absolutely nothing, will not be listed anywhere and will worth zero.

People are that evil, they just promote it and they promise you payment and they just pay you a token that worths nothing and claim that they said you will be paid in that token and you were paid in that token and just shift the blame on you somehow. I do not understand how people trust these type of campaigns but they get a lot of money as well from funding somehow.

There is nothing that bounty hunters can do It depends on the manager for the bounty campaign. If the manager introduces the bounty properly then there is no need to make a broken promise for the hunters later. These are declining day by day as the projects have no reputation. Before participating in this bounty campaign you need to research how trustworthy the manager's teams are and participate. There is a risk on the exchange sites when it comes to BTC payments.

It's really hard for Hunters.Every hunter suffers a lot more.To make a project a success.But there are many costs of time, they are not paid a fair wage for this hardship. It is really very painful.

It seems that attention to bounty hunters does not make every problem that occurs a priority. every project that is vague and irresponsible, even though it is very clear that there is a contribution by bounty hunters there. It must also be taken into account because it takes up a lot of time from his routine work, but there is no reward at all and someone cares about the bounty hunter who has been lied to.

That's why we said that the reward in bounty campaign is random. No one will able to predict it. If the token already traded on exchange site and it has big volume and people will be very easy to determine that.
We have learned a lot from so many scam bounty. The hunters were using their brain will always try to do deep research.
I never blindly joining in any campaign. It's not all of the hunters were the same.

what you are saying is the right thing, many bounty hunters only use instinct or only see BM holding the project, rarely and maybe no one has to read the white paper or description that does come with the project. because bounty hunters only want to succeed in a project so they can get what they want.

even if there are details like you said, again it also does not guarantee because there are no laws or sanctions for projects that lie to bounty hunters, making bounty hunters have no power at all other than surrender to the situation. Nor does it guarantee that everything that is already good can produce good results because if the intention is not to want to pay, then he can do it, eventually returning to fate.
