Topic: What is Bounties? (Read 1022 times)

Nice and informative post!
I was reading about bounties in the alt forum, but never really found an explanation.
This thread cleared it up a bit.

Bounties are campaign programs intended to advertise their upcoming ICO (Initial Coin Offering) which ranges from social media (such as twitter and facebook), wearing bitcointalk signature, writing blogs and articles, translating their website, ANN thread and whitepaper, reddit, telegram and etc. They have a bounty pool for their partcipants about a number of percentage of the total coin (might be 5%, 2%, 1% or less, it varies) supply or any amount they wish to allocate for their bounty which you can later sell when it reaches an exchanger.

As long as you can contribute valuable information on this forum, then I would suggest that you impart that wisdom upon us for awhile first.  It will be difficult for you to earn much as a newbie.  So you should build your profile, which takes time and effort in contributing to this community.  

As for right now, you can probably participate in twitter, facebook, linkedin, blog, or video bounties.  When you post your results that will count toward the posts to build your account even though those are not the most valuable contributions to the community.

Good Luck.  I'm sure there is something out there for you.

Bounty hunters are people who are going to promote your ICO for free coins

A bounty (from Latin bonitās, goodness) is a payment or reward often offered by a group as an incentive for the accomplishment of a task by someone usually not associated with the group. Bounties are most commonly issued for the capture or retrieval of a person or object. They are typically in the form of money.

You can do bounties to win Coins depending in which coin you are doing the bounties. Normally the bounties are articles, YouTube videos, commments etc. Personally I do the bounties of deeponion, check it out and its the one that pays more I think. I hope you find a good bounty campaign. Good luck.

Is there a thread that explains how to get into bounties ect? I would like to know more information, I am still not understanding it.

Wow glad to come across this post. I have so much things to learn. I guess I need to explore more to rank up. Happy to start my first post here.

Any suggestions in bounties for newbies?

I think it depends on each bounty itself. But in general I think Twitter or signature bounties.

what is least time consuming way to campaign in bounties?anybody answer please

As I know Bounty campaigns are used to pay attention to the product. By participating in bounty campaign you can receive stakes by meeting certain conditions set by a bounty program operator.

ICO's use bounties to get cheap help to spread their word on Twitter, Bitcoin talk, Reddit, 4Chan, Facebook, Instagram, Steemit etc. Many bounties doesn't pay out much, so choose wisely. And I would recommend only participating in bounties for projects you like.

Any suggestions for an ICO right now to start a good bounty?

Easiest thing to analogy bounty is work, while you do something like share post or make a blog post of something related to bounty campaign, you get some reward from it.

you get the coins to the company for certain actions to be done, then these coins will be released to the stock exchange and you can sell them but be careful study well because of the company is that the coins are worth nothing after the release on the stock exchange

You can get extra tokens or coin making some action.

Hey everyone!

I have participated in Bounties for a few times, but the best one so far was a Bounty from Crowdholding ICO. (I supported telegram, fb and twitter campaign)

They use their own platform to post a task and give tokens directly to your wallet. Very convention. Suggest.

startup companies seeking to raise funding in a form ICO use advertisment to raise awareness. This advertisment is what is known as the bounties in the cryptocurrency community. Is in a form of facebook,twitter or signature and writing of article. They reward participants with tokens of their coins .

A new bounty for

Usually the ico before trading platform they will carry out the media campaign on this forum that is bounties. They will pay you their coin if you participate in the campaign they set out as facebook, tiwtter, signature campaign or youtube or blog.

Bounties are basically  rewards  for completing  some specific  tasks,  it involve mostly social media promotion. You get rewards  after ICOs

Bounties are campaign programs intended to advertise their upcoming ICO they announce that they need a advertising their project like face twitter and etc . and they have a task for you and you need to report when job is done!

Informative,  thank you

I'm still trying to figure it out the "good" ICO's from the bad ones myself. When you figure it out give me a heads up. At the moment I'm just picking ones with projects I can understand or would use if they make it to release. Refereum & Viuly are examples of that.

Otherwise I check out the ICO to see if they have working platform. Consider the level of detail the site goes to for automating the bounty process, or signup process and how the team handles all questions. If they aren't professional 100% of the time why would I want to support them with my time or my crypto. Do they have a wider dev team supporting them or regular staff etc. A couple of ones I'm getting behind at the moment include Refereum, Rebellious, Viuly and Chimaera for those reasons.

The other thing I do... is I prepare myself to get absolutely nothing back from these. If I have no expectations of rewards then I can be pleasantly surprised if it pays off. Thats my mindset now anyway. I'll revist that in a few months to see if I still feel like that - or if I've learned anything new Sorry its probs not that helpful

Do not be sorry its very helpful to be honest and I would like to thank you for the pointers by the way

hi...I ever have this question before...and in my opinion, bounties are offered by ICOs in order to reward us for promoting/marketing their ICO for them and also to help them reach a wider audience....

The prize is one of the company's campaigns aimed at obtaining ICO. If we want to mine a gift we can do it by signature, on the signature we can understand the article first and then we add the signature in the profile summary and we can change the profile by adding the signature. After that bounty there is a choice of rank that we can follow and some requirements are listed.

Thank you for the information, I would just like to know how to spot a good ICO as when I check on the bounties is really confuses me I already get how the social media bounty goes along with the signature bounties as taken from your answers however I really do not know how to spot a good ICO.

thanks buddy, really helpful for me, but is it possible to newbie to join translation reserve?

Glad to help out

I'm sadly not multilingual so I haven't had any direct experience in how the translation process works. However from what can be seen on ANN/Bounty threads - I believe anyone can apply for them - usually they just note "Reserved - xxx Language" into the threads.
As an additional point to note - I've also seen many people listing previous translation works that they've done. (Almost like a CV application of sorts).
Submitting your interest in this type of bounty (dependant on the language to be translated) may have high competition from other users, and if I was running an ICO I would likely prefer an experienced translator. But I would definitely apply if I were you as it cannot hurt. Just remember to be professional and polite if they do not accept as well, as even connecting with the ICO devs counts towards your BTT ranking which helps as well.

Again... I'm not fully experienced in translation bounties so please if anyone has more accurate info let us know here. The more tips and knowledge shared about things the more informed we all get.

Same here wish that this helped you with the bounties. I am still trying to figure out some things myself.

Nice and informative post!

some bounty accept it, and the rest not minimum rank is jr.member because it's easy to make a newbie account, within a minutes you can get that rank 
but if you have a previous task from other bounty maybe they will accept you.

bounties is campaign from ICO, you follow FB,Twitter or signature campaign
and if the ICO success you will get bounties token

I guest your friend brought you here because your friends wants you to learn some things about bitcoin and how to earn from this forum, you friend didn't tell you all things because all of the knowledge are in here, you just to explore and reads all useful topics here to gain more knowledge, to be honest spoonfeeds are waste of time. but to summaries, bounties are activities that youll be paid after you complete the task from that projects, this activity are not suits to you if you don't have enough knowledge on this, I suggest you to study/read/spend your time in this forum to gain more knowledge that you can use in the future. don't be in rush.

Bounties are offered by ICOs as a way to reward you for promoting/marketing their ICO for them to help them reach a wider audience.

One of the easiest and therefore lowest rewarding bounty for a newbie or jr member(most don't offer much to newbies) here on BTT is a signature bounty campaign. You need to read the rules throughly of each bounty campaign to ensure you meet the requirements. Especially for larger bounty campaigns that require you to repost/retweet/like everything from the ICO etc every week while the ICO is running for example for them to deny you would kind of suck.

Easiest one by far is the signature campaign bounty. I'd recommend that once you hit Jr Member. But if you like an ICO's project and have a good social media audience (usually one of the requirements of any social media bounty) then just read up on them on each ICO's ANN thread to see if its worth your time and effort to complete for the reward you can receive.

If you have time and are multilingual - there are also translation bounties you can reserve and complete.

A few nights ago I completed a validation bounty for a project that involved checking a few Facebook profiles to see the aging of the accounts to ensure they were created prior to a specific date as part of the sign-up rules.

There are also bounties for blogging, vlogging, logo design, etc. Anything and everything the ICO might not have the time or expertise for they can potentially outsource via bounties if they want to.

Once you have been around for a few months these things won't be so unfamiliar.  But just remember, one of your biggest resources - is your time. And its valuable so don't give it away for free

Hi I am a newbie and I would like to know more about the bounties and summarize each of it since my friend that introduced me to this forum did not provided me with enough explanation.
