Personally, I think that bounty hunters are currently not going through the best period in their activity. Since just two years ago, bounty hunters received a very good income. And at the moment, this is not the best time for bounty hunters. But soon everything will be as before and bounty hunters will begin to receive good rewards.
2017 was a special year both in cryptocurrency and in the activities of ICO projects. It is unlikely that this will happen again, but the revival of the ICO is quite possible and I hope that in the near future it will be so. Bounty hunters have become much harder to work with, and not even in the sense that the reward has become much less. The period between the termination of participation in ICO bounty campaigns and the receipt of earned tokens now often becomes many months, or even years. During this period,  need to constantly monitor changes in the project and in the conditions of payment, otherwise tokens may simply not be received. It takes a lot of time, given the fact that there are dozens of such projects. Earlier, that is, two years ago, there were no such problems at all.
Unfortunately, at the moment, there are no more “dozens” of projects. Now bounty hunters participate in 2-3, maximum 5 projects. A worthy project is very hard to find. Maybe only newbies clutch at everything, but those who are more experienced are now more careful and value their time.
Still huge projects in the market but majority of the looking worst,fishy,suspecious bla bla that's why old bounty hunters not participating because they are very disappointed for not paid in many previous campaign. Though 2k-3k participation in many bounty campaign most of them newbies. In 2017 was golden era for the bounty hunters but when cryptocurrency marketcap was over 500 billion.

Some people have been bounty hunters for a long time (e.g, for the past 2 or3 years) and till now, they are still on the act of hunting for more altcoins.
It is true that the reward hunters now get is so small compared to what was obtainable 2 to 3 years ago and not only that, it now takes more time to be paid than it was. So, instead of complaining, why not through some of the experience you have got, since your sojourn in the crypto space, explore other means through which you can earn more and fill your portfolio.

N.B:
This might be like  a vital information. There are lots of projects that did bounty campaigns (although not all), which have decided to extent the time of payment of tokens to their bounty participants. Whose tokens are growing tremendously after listing on exchange. Which means that traders and investors of projects like these get their profits before bounty hunters are paid.

DISCLAIMER:: Although, this is not an investment advice, but an observation, which i have decided to call your attention to.

It will be great also if you can suggest a good alternative aside from being a bounty hunters because if there are no other alternatives that can really help the bounty hunters then they will surely remain as bounty hunters even if it will take a lifetime.

The service that you can advance aside from being a bounty hunters are as follows : marketing managers,ann & bounty managers,signature designer,community managers,programmers if you know how to code and social media members booster.

But as you can see, the competition in this area are very high so there is a very little chance that you will be hired. Therefore it is very difficult to advance as a bounty hunter especially if you have no solid foundation like experience and etc.

The problem is that currently the entire altcoins sector is blocked: there are no really valid projects, and in any case the investors - after having lost large sums of money - have become much more cautious. We will see in the future, for the time being the bounties are only a waste of time.

lately it is indeed a difficult time for bounty hunters, low income and requires a long time to wait for the distribution date of the token, This year 2019 is a bad year for bounty hunters because it's not the same as 2018 ago, but I still believe that in 2020 bounty hunters will return to enjoy the good times like in 2018 ago.. so that until now I still remain a bounty hunter.

I have been a member of the bounty for 3 years now and indeed now is not the best time to make money in this area, however, I continue my work and if I even have a negative from work, I keep it in myself and continue to do my job. You are right about experience. When you have already gained experience, it is foolish not to use it, of course you need to think more broadly and use the maximum opportunities for earning and replenishing your crypto portfolio.

you have a good point there however we all know that even some of the legitimate projects ends up as a failure or ends as a scam right? so bounty hunters are afraid to invest to a project and in result they just invest time and effort in order to get new coins from a new project.

Well, the rewards were better back then even though I never really benefitted from them except from an airdrop program which was alittle different from today's airdrop.
Almost everything was affected by the bearish market not just cryptocurrency crowdfunding. Current hunters need to understand this

How do we define a bounty hunter? Are they marketing agents that help promote a product or service in other words, bounty hunter is a partner? Or maybe 'a slave' that can be exploited and blamed for granted. I often ask this. We don't have legal protection, we are a community that reinforce each other.
In some way, bounty hunters are partners to bring investors around, they are not slaves where you can point your fingers once failures comes to your project, and it's not good if you will runaway and forget about paying since they've don their part with the projects.

It's hard nowadays to find good team that will lead everything into succession, then pay hunters the right rewards according to their shared with the project success.

Deep.  However, there are few opportunities available as a hunter unless you develop yourself in a particular area.  Many become community managers and make a pretty penny weekly or monthly by work as moderators for more than one project simultaneously.  Asides that other positions require some level of specialized skill.

if you look at several accounts, they are following a lot of projects for social media campaigns. they know they will get a little from the bounty and therefore they are increasingly following the bounty even though not all of them pay.
many have stopped, seeing several large accounts that have long been inactive in the forum. those who stop, of course, consider the results of the bounty and the real work they do.

Nice suggestion. I have seen many users growing from the status of bounty hunters to individual service providers. All one needs is an area of core competency. It could be blog writing, twitter, translations or any other kind of promotion. I have friends who are making $200-500 per project just from twitter every week. ICOs are ready to pay them upto $500 per week for just writing few tweets and that too in BTC or other listed coins in advance.

You are right that is why I move out in the ICO bounty campaign and instead transfer to promoting gambling  sites, it's more rewarding, I would not have to wait for months to see my rewards, some of my work in the bounty campaigns is wasted effort , I just hope I can get more into more gambling promotion I don't want to come back to promoting ICO which is just a waste of time.

Probably one of the reason why bounty hunters stay as is because of the freedom of time to operate.  As a bounty hunter, they can dictate the time on when to do the job.  Aside from that, they are so familiar with the rules and take them lesser effort to do the task in a proficient way.  This, then become their comfort zone.  Once in a comfort zone, it is hard to get out to try new venture or new set of job since they have to start all over again.  People  going out of comfort zone is the last thing they wanna do.

Best profitable period for the bounty hunters were 2017,even few people made millions from doing bounties alone but now even those projects are afraid to pay the participants in bitcoin which can save tokens from dumping when it listed so from this most projects launched after 2017 are just like a gamble they are aiming for more profits.

Some projects are blaming bounty hinters for the price of their coins getting dumped. However if you will look at it during a bounty campaign only atleast 1% up to5% maximum at most or even less than 1% of the total supply is dedicated for bounty. The one they should blame is the investors who managed to get huge discount. A lot of projects put bounties locked to protect investors because of this. That is why I think it really is a risk to join bounties and this kind of risk is what bounty hunters take when joining.

You will include to your portfolio/CV that you were a bounty hunter? which means that you're into marketing because every bounty hunter's task is to market the project that they are enrolled. But I don't think that your future potential employers would be impressed with that if you will tell them that you've been into it. Why not simply tell them that you have a knowledge in cryptocurrencies/blockchain and with that, you can contribute to the related job that you're applying for?

I personally think bounty hunters are now just useless people who are scamming the forum by making useless posts around various threads. There was a time when bounties were profitable even I used to do bounties. But these days I think the bounties are pretty less rewarding. Most of them ico turn out to be scam so basically bounty hunting is no more a useful business until you are too lucky to found some good coins or running with a hell lot of bots. So i think bounty hunters are doing nothing these days than trying their efforts on something unuseful.

Many people are used to complaining about failures, instead of trying to improve their situation. I like what you said, I agree with you, buddy. I think that bounty hunters should use their experience to improve their financial situation, instead of crying.
But not everyone could do it for example there are some who have been bounty hunter for so long but still couldn't trade properly,
And there are some reasons why ,
Not all bounty hunters have a huge free time or only living through bounty hunting,
So those bounty hunter couldn't do other stuff that would eat up so many of their time.
There are some who are lazy to study trading and others who couldn't do other job because it requires some experience like bounty manager most of the time it would be hard to be one because they would require some past experience .
