Are crypto bounties still worth participating in?

[collinsjie]

Bounty campaigns are still somehow worth participating into an extend. I do participate in some bounty with my spare time because is not all the bounty campaigns work out at the end of the day. There are so many fake projects out there created purposely to scam investors and in the end, the bounty hunters will not be paid. Another issue is the inability of the team to make the project work out as they planned. Also, some teams of projects don't pay or pay in full. This some of the reasons why the bounty campaign is not worthy of participating.

Bounties are good source of income if you can learn to decipher the wheat from the chaff and of course have the time it requires. These days there is an explosion in bounties with a good number of them being plain scams, I daresay 50% of them. No one is perfect so you need to glean out the good ones, especially good bounty managers too

I always followed the rules of every bounty, KYC and eth deposit program I ever did in 2017 to make withdrawals, but the project turned out to be fake and the developer left the project when it was listed on a low volume exchange. I think from there I have the experience not to repeat the mistakes that occur, this time I will do more rigorous research before joining the bounty program.

I guess for some instances, yes, but don't just rely on those bounties you must need a job because most of them have no guarantee to achieve some decent payments, But lately, the concept of doing bounties has changed already unlike before because more and more bounty campaigns today are more on like mini bounties concept with just 4 weeks in length and paid by Stablecoin USDT, BUSD, etc but with a very small allocation ranging from $5K -$10K another problems also arise it has a thousand of participants which is not because it was promoting spam.

Hey guys,have been meaning to ask this question for a long time now, are crypto bounties becoming worthless?, cus I don't know why they are so many scam bounties these days, I participated in clipx bounty on bitcointalk hosted by bounty detectives, and after the bounty campaign ended, clipx team asked every participant to do kyc,thankfully I was pretty busy that week and forgot to do the kyc and it passed the deadline date for the kyc, after 3days I visited bounty detectives telegram group and saw that after clipx project has been discontinued, wait why would they ask for kyc when they know fully well that they aren't gonna continue with the project? Sadly alot of bounty hunters did the kyc, and passed it, and the clipx team claimed that they have deleted all the kyc information, but I think that's a lie because they know how valuable it is on the dark web, there's no way they are going to throw away all those information, I think the campaign was owned by scammers and they just needed those kyc's, what do you think?

Why not, i was starting to participate on bounty from 2017 and i got huge amount of earning from this time. I am realy luck myself and give thanks always to my friend for heloing me to come here. I also thanks to my Almighty to give me this to earn from this platfrom. I try to do hard work behind it to earn. I wanna give an example right now which is frx you may watch it ti my signature and i really hopw to get earn from it as we all know it will be listed on top10 cex on 10 dec. So i always suggest  to do bounty and try to earn. Hipe you will get a good earning.

Whether or not to participate in the bounties also depends on our "education and knowledge" in crypto. Personally, I will not participate in rewards where they pay $40 for a month of work and then make you wait 3 months to get paid. I think it is preferable (and this is just my opinion) to participate in a single bounty in a year than in 1 each month, selecting the projects can save us a lot of time and disappointment. But I repeat that it is only my opinion, we all have our opinions and they are totally respectable.

I think in many ways our attitude on this issue depends on the availability of free time. I have a relatively large amount of it now and can afford to participate in bounty campaigns even if they don't end up paying me. Sometimes this participation is decently rewarded, and often in those projects from which you do not expect much profit. Besides, habit probably also plays a role. It is already interesting to know what news is being discussed on the forum, what new projects have appeared, as with the prices of cryptocurrency.

True. Free time is the main factor to participate in bounties. 3-4 years ago, bounties can be considered as a full time job. I've heard many examples how people quit their job and becomes a 24/7 hunters. Nowadays I cant imagine being such a person.

I am very selective in bounties. I mostly skip bounties, and take part only in bounties under management of favorite managers.

Yes, Bounty is still worth. At 3-4 years we will get a lot tokens from bounty and really worth.
For now, I think we can join bounty to get free tokens, As you said we should selective

I think legit bounty is always worthy.
But I see several bounty projects are scam and almost all of them didn't have good project.
The team  didn't improve their projects to follow the trend, So the coin price is suffering.
Maybe we should join bounty that being brought by reputated BM.

agreed with this, legit bounty is worthy, I have joined several bounties since 2015 and have gotten profit from.
Several tokens are worthy and also many tokens are less.
I think It's no matter, bounty is just spending our time time to gain free tokens.
We only do the task and will get tokens.
I'm bounty hunter and trader, So do both every time

[dekafee79]

I have joined bounty campaign and airdrop since 2015 ang got a lot free tokens from those.
At 2015-2016 we have gotten alot, its really worthy.
But for now, I see the rewards is more little.
It's free tokens, so still worthy to participate in bounty campaign.
As bounty hunter, I  always research the bounty project and choose reputated BM.

Bounties still generates income, but there is no such income that there was a few years ago, of course, if you will participate in all bounty companies, then you may be able to get a good profit, but for this, of course, you will have to sit in the computer all day by performing bounty tasks and I think its not a good idea.

[innerpumper]

Since we don't have a legal entity to protect bounty hunters here, anyone who follows the bounty must really work for the rewards offered, but we don't know whether it will pay off or not in the end. I think they understand that if they are a scam project that really ran away with everything, it was our fault that we were not careful in following the bounty.
But, if the project is successful with their bounty, they have a large community but forget the bounty participants. This is a disgusting project. I'm sure this has happened, some of which I have participated in such as digitalbits and payaccept.

Just so you know, bounties, just like crypto in general, are not get rich quick schemes or projects. They are kind of like active income sources. Some pay good. Some don't. I know I have earned up to $5000 in a single bounty. So I'm a bit biased
