Wait, wait, what work are you talking about? You actually relied on social bounties & translation to pay rent and bills? Not exactly the best career choice. I would think working at Macdonalds would be better. Honestly, social bounties & translations are a nice bonus that one can do during his/her own free time, not like a full time career option.
No, nobody is that stupid. Even if you are doing translations there is very little work involved, it is basically free money for doing stuff which you would do anyway if you were supporting the coin. This BS about it being a job is just total nonsense that has been bandied about on all ICOs with bounties to make people feel sorry for them if they don't receive them or if the project is not a success.
I think future ICOs should just ditch the bounties completely - they are too easy to scam and they basically devalue the end product. If people really want to reward people for making a contribution give them a percentage bonus on top of what they have ALREADY invested in the ICO and leave it at that.
I agree man. Reward the investors since we will hold onto our Stratis. Qiman will just dump his Stratis to pay rent. Not even sure why the translations are worth that much. You can just hire someone on Fiverr for $5 and I'm sure they will do a better job.
