Are bounty managers to be blamed?

[ambar33n]

So ones again we have been scammed by another ICO known as Uchit. Now people have started raining insults and curses on the bounty manager that he has led them to be scammed. Despite the numerous apologies from the manager, bounty hunters do not seem to understand. Now my question is, do you think bounty hunters must be blamed when we are scammed because they knew what the ICO was up to, even from the beginning?

Yes, bounty managers are to be blamed for scam ICOs. They need to do their research well about the bounty before they start it.

I agree to an extent.  There's no real way a bounty manager can know with 100% certainty that the ICO they're working for is a scam.  They can do all their due dilligence and it just falls out from under them.  I've seen fantastic looking projects go nowhere and be scams, and at the same time I've seen projects that look like a complete joke initially and end up being amazing and making tons of money.  There's no way to know for sure, the bounty manager should do some research though to minimize the communities risk.  At the same time, the same can be said of bounty hunters, they should do their own research and determine whether or not they want to invest based on that, not based on the word of a bounty manager alone.

We should have a new regulation about this case. Many Scam ICO happen lately. The people that are involved should get punishment. For me, this case is a serious problem.

Why shouldn't them be blamed? As a bounty manager you supposed to do a thorough research on a project before you bring it to the table for bounty hunters to follow. You can't just be gullible and bring something which would waste people's time. Time is money you know? And recently it seems scammers are having a field day due to the gullibility of some bounty managers.

I also participated in some bonus campaigns and did not receive anything. Besides, bonus managers have apologized. I sympathize with them, because they are only invited to manage the campaign and the reward is distributed by the project. The bounty manager has no responsibility for the project refusing to distribute the token to campaign participants.

[Andruha1993]

I think the campaign manager is not to blame for the fact that the project turned out to be scam, because he is just like us and could not know that everything will end badly.

It depends who are the managers. If the manager are well known then it is worthy to be blame because bounty hunters put their trust. If the manager is just a beginner, I think we should blame our self and move on.

Well, there are circumstances that bounty managers know from the start that the ICO is a scam and still continue to managed the bounty even if they know it was a scam project, in this case bounty managers can be blamed. However, there are circumstances that the project is doing well and bounty manager is truthful with his work and all and all, but in the end dev team run all the money of the investors, in this case dev team are to blame. So it all depends on the situation.

Being a bounty manager myself, i would have to say that these things will bound to happen.

There will sure be a scam ico that will approach a guy to ask him to do bounty manager. And if you are new, with an offer like this, i totally can understand why some guys willing to take up even though they do not verify fully. This is because it is such a rare chance, i rather take the risk than to lose a great opportunities.

In addition, if an ico is a legit one with substantial financial backing, they would have gone to more establish service providers, like my company BlockFolks. Ico service providers dont charge cheap, and one of the reason is that they will do their diligence check, meeting up with the dev team to discuss on the roadmap, give advise, have roadshow/meetups/conference to attend etc. That is why people tends to support bounties host by these service providers.

It's not their faults to indulge you in scam projects. Most of them are like you here on altcoinstalk and they are paid to do their job. In most cases, the managers themselves are being scammed and don't receive anything. they are not to be blamed.

Scam ICO are bound to happen. its just a matter of time before the Dev. team run with all the money they have scanmed.bounty managers are also can be blamed for negligience

[racham02]

Yes of course, we can blame the bounty manager if the ICO's we joined are scammed,if the ICO's we joined is scammed, because the bounty manager will first know if the project he handles are scam, all the team behind the project should be punished, base on my experience several times I'm also scam here in the world of crypto, now ICO's scams are increasing so we should be careful about joining signature campaigns.

Found your answer as one of the most logic and reasonable.
Actually, I saw how experienced bounty managers as needmoney and deadly got scammed.
No one can ensure with 100% that a project can make ICO.
Experienced bounty managers do their due diligence and research thoroughly.

But anyways, I found my own solution for the problem. If I found a good quality manager, I always try to participate in campaigns that he/she is launching, thus I'm in little risk of getting scammed, because I know this manager handles his work properly.

[Deffobit]

I think it's always different. Sometimes the bounty manager is to blame because he knew that the Scam project, sometimes it is also cheating.
