Bounty payment or coin listing, which come first?

[Pegasus]

I think payment first would be better. That way, you can sell your tokens right after it's listed. To many projects, that point of selling is usually at highest price. After that, prices usually gradually decrease. Some people might say that bounty hunters selling tokens leads to price dump but the number of bounty tokens is too small to cause price dump.

I think both have an advantage between traders investors and bounty hunters whatever will be the first thing to do. If exchange, hunters will be excited to receive the reward to sell in the market. If payment, hunters will be excited to list the token in exchange to sell. However, the price will be dependant to market demand.

I have seen many hunters worry for bounty distribution immediately after bounty conclusions while it may not be certain coin/token is listed on any exchange. I think coin should be first listed on exchange, then distribution to all participants take effect.
I have experienced so many bounty payments while coin never listed on exchange, unfortunately project failed to launch and all bounty payments wasted on my wallet till date.
Now, in your opinion, distribution should be sent first or coin should be listed first before bounty distribution, which should come first? Your thoughts. Thanks

Waiting for a project to get listed before distributing bounty rewards is not a NAD idea but many are just afraid that the tokens may not get to them especially after listing if the project is doing well. Many dev and team are greedy. It is much better to receive the reward before listing.

it depends on the decision of the project owner but most cases are coins already listed on the market after the bounty ends then distribution

I understand that after the bounty hunters are worried of when they will get the coins. But we have to accept the fact that before we join the campaign we agreed that the payment distribution will comes next after the exchange.  meaning there's nothing we can do about it.

In my opinion, the Bounty payment must take precedence, because it is their obligation. The issue of tokens listed on the exchange is their business, but it would be better if the tokens are registered immediately after payment is completed.

In this regard, I would like to make two points. First, the ICO team must strictly adhere to the terms of joining their bounty campaigns. If the deferral of payments is indicated there, only in this case it can be applied. Second, all participants - investors and bounty hunters - should be on an equal footing. Then why don't investors start paying out the tokens they buy after they go public? Or it is impossible to violate the conditions in relation to investors, and bounty hunters are absolutely powerless, in relation to them it is possible to violate?

If I participate in the bounty, I usually participate in the bounty by paying for the coins that have been listed. But sometimes I also bounty with new coins that haven't been listed yet, but I'm sure it will work. What is clear in my opinion, you should really study the project well before deciding to join in a bounty project.

Yes, the safest way is choosing the bounty with tradable tokens. But it is not only about listed on an exchange, we must check the daily volume or transactions of the tokens on the exchange. If the volume is too low and seems rarely transactions there, I also consider not join the bounty. There is a chance that we will hold bounty tokens that no one demands to buy on the exchange.

Every bounty hunter wants an assurance; a reality assurance and this is why the best assurance a bounty hunter can get is their reward (tokens) in the wallet as soon as the bounty is over. Projects need to stop promising to pay after listing; they should just pay after the bounty ends which is the most honorable way.

Lets not be hypocrites. As for bounty hunters; always dyor

I agree with your opinion tho, I also think its better for the coin to be listed on exchanges first before distribution takes place,any distribution before coin listing is not a sign of a good project, I have participated in alot of bounties on bitcointalk and listing always come first before distribution, not the other way round.

I think distribution should come as soon as possible so for bounty hunters to sell at good prices than distributing after listing when investors and other traders would have dumped the price to an unrecognizable and unprofitable level

[masterrex]

IMHO, It is not a problem with me if what was the first thing to be done, whether listing or distribution All I care about is to get paid for my work and they should stick to the promise since the bounty was started, the problem is most of the bounty campaign nowadays are just easily change the rules after the campaign was done for me it was unacceptable and form of cheating in the part of the bounty hunters.

[Gurujebs]

Which ever comes first doesn't matter, what Bounty hunter need is patient for the team to fully develop price and the project so that the Bounty token allocation wouldn't necessarily have effect on the price.
But there are many situations where the team may want to play the hunters by not paying and been dishonest with the Bounty payments, that's the sad part been a bounty hunters.
The best thing is to escrow the Bounty payments before promoting any project. Bountydetective has been doing that for long and I like their system.
Trust!!!

Useless to pay hunters first before distribution if the success remains uncertain either ways their is risk. It is hurtful moment to expect and gain nothing from wonderful dreams. What matter is the project success, token value, payment sent to hunters, the team remain honest to fulfil their promises.
