There are many disappointing things that can really happen when you join in a bounty. We need to include the factor that not all of them are guaranteed to pay you. I would only recommend doing bounties on the services section because they pay weekly using btc but the bounties that pay you the token from ICO is like high risk/high reward ratio.
Signature campaign that use BTC in reward actually can be alternative but they are really strict in rules. Maybe that is why a lot of people not always accepted in there. But if we're have quality on our post, we can be accepted in there.

for this year the prize program is very difficult and the ico program is mostly scam because it doesn't get a softcap, we have to be careful when doing work by looking for tokens or free coins because of all the many risks

Bounty work is for free work only but it depends on you if you are willing to hardwork on it or not to earn free tokens or not. But it depends on a rank to join bounty campaigns to earn huge tokens that they give on you.
It's easy to work on bounty and get token (shit token) but doesn't it worth your time? I think it requires a lot of your times to be wasted in case you don't get a penny. And most of the bounty projects give nothing nowadays.

Most bounty campaigns are hit and miss now, it's not like the old days when almost all bounties would be rewarding. Now you are lucky to find one that doesn't scam you, extend the deadline 2 more months, and then offer you a worthless token!
I do bounty campaigns and airdrops cause its my only way to earn money, but the sad part is if the bounty campaign i joined in didnt pay or turned into scam, i want to give up doing bounties, but i realize patience is a virtue.
So a few months ago I did some bounty work for a company called Swachhcoin. Like many of you, I spent countless hours developing and creating posts that highlighted key features of the platform. Fast forward several months...they tell all of us bounty campaign participants that we will have to pass KYC to receive the NEW swachhcoin tokens (SWACHH). My previous Swachhcoin tokens (SCX) are now worth $0 and I will have to do KYC to get my new usable tokens. Also, they set a monthly limit of how many tokens we can sell. We will receive 10% each month to prevent dumping. I like this idea, but NONE of this was presented during the bounty campaign period. I also bought 2 ETH worth of tokens and they've delayed the project at least 2 times! To me, this is unprofessional, ridiculous, and outlandish. Sorry for the rant, but this is the exact reason I've been slowly putting my money into projects that I think have a future. I'm trying to stay away from the bad apples and put some leftover money aside into Bitcoin, Nauticus, Ethereum, EOS, and even XRP.
Oh sad to hear about your bad experience in joining SWACHH, in fact, I also encountered that things on the other bounty campaign. Where after the campaign we've waited 3 months before the distribution begun. Then, 10% each month about the payment which is very unjust actually and many complaint but their frustration can't do nothing.
People have reasons to do bounties as well as not to do,so it really depends on every individual who give more preference to what.
When someone looking for money and for that they will give any effrot and if there is no payment of need to wait to long they don't care about,they will just keep promoting then bounties are really for those persons.

All in all,,, a good example of why not to join a bounty.
First of all, people have terrible expectations about bounties. For them it is free money for doing cheap or easy work. For the project it is the other way around, free marketing, giving free tokens for people to shill their coin.
Think about it. Is the project really interesting to you? Are you also a user and not just a holder or speculator? Do you even understand the technology? If you are not sure about even 1 of the questions what is the point?

My income has fallen sharply compared with 2017, but still I still earn good money from bounty. Enough to make more efforts to select projects.
What project did you taken part since you made this account in 27 December 2017? Scam project and reduction price were a part of the reason bounty hunters got a little profit or even didn't profit because the tokens they got were
worthless. And now I don't think project ICO or bounty campaign is a legit way to get token that have potential IMO.

I know that it must very disappointing for you that it's not your effort is only in vain but also your investments. It is really the norm in the ICO projects and of course we all hate it. KYC is tolerable for me but that kind of conditions, it's too much. Your topic is what I really want and this is my last bounty if it does not work.
There are lots of bounty campaign happening in bitcoin forum. And we get thousands of participants. But I am agree with you, bounty campaign can't give you good return for your effort. Bounty hunters do lots of work with different campaigns but they don't get their deserve earning from it.
Lots of bounties are followed to earn income by working hard, but in the end many are scam. It hurts, but it's already a risk and continues to live it with the hope that someone will succeed and the coins that are obtained can be sold at an expensive price after being thrown into the crypto market.There is no guarantee that you will get results, but the ICO will always be there and that is the same as an open opportunity where we will follow or not. Fortune does not come twice, but opportunities are always in crypto.

Im not against with SWACHHcoin project but delays do have corresponding reason which is the current bearish market.They do extent out the duration of the saledue for them not to accumulate such funds and about into their bounty program it is actually not bad at all having 10% gradual pay-off to prevent dumping but they
didnt able to realize that the number one dumpers is the investor itself knowing that bounty token allocations arent that big that do affect majority of this coins price.
The choice of projects is huge, every day there are several new bounty. It is obvious that some of these projects will succeed, and this is quite a sufficient reason to take part in the bounty.

It's not true. Bounty campaign really pays good but just you need to find a better bounty campaign. There are a number of bounty projects on this forum and identifying real projects from them is always a challenging task. Bounty campaigns pay in their tokens and if a project is worthy than the value for those tokens can multiple in x numbers.Also we get an opportunity to get some tokens for free which can be of huge benefits afterwards. Some bounty campaigns pays more than the efforts so we can't really blame the bounties for paying less but instead we should blame the bounties which doesn't pay their bounty hunters.
I thought Swachhcoin was a profitable project having professional team. Usually these kind of projects who offer new tokens in exchange of the old ones may be compared to scam but we can't say anything until we see the project fully going down.
Maybe you might have been faced such problems because of the poor management of the project or the unprofessional team but might be they will plan something and you could be able to get your funds back from that project. Bounty campaigns plays a important role for the promotion of any project because bounty campaign covers mostly each of the social media and promotes the project to the fullest.

Thanks for your experience you have shered to us and we all get experience in this beautiful post. But I can't understand why some ICOs have become trouble to bounty Hunters . I think government who accepted crypto should take control of this and pass laws to remove those stains in cryptocurrency. The fraudsters have cotrol of the ICOs project nowadays, they create shit for people to invest in it and they take their monies away, where they are not panelized.

yes they are lots of them but as far as i know a bounty campaign cant hold a thousand participants . that is already huge and wont be possible for them to monitor the users properly .
bounty campaign can't give you good return for your effort.
only if you pick up the scam bounty but if you are lucky to pick the legit one , for sure you can be happy with their rewards . keep in mind that rewards also depend on your rank and on how many task you'v done properly .
Bounty hunters do lots of work with different campaigns but they don't get their deserve earning from it.
bounty campaigns are more easier than a regular sig campaign that pays in btc because bounty campaigns have a less stricker rules . you can post on most boards and you can post with lesser text count . but as i said earlier , the reward is dependent .
