Only thing I find disappointing with some ICOs is the amount they pay in bounties. Monetha is a good example, some people had about $1,500 worth of coins from bounties for the signature campaign. After investing $500 of my own money, it does make me think are they really worth that much if they're willing to just give so much away for an avatar campaign.
Maybe I won't feel that way when I'm eligible in a few months time but for now it's a sting.
Bounties are a pain. As soon as the bounty participants get their tokens, they dump them on the exchanges dragging the price down for the rest of us.
My strategy is simple: If they offer bounties, they are a shitcoin to be avoided.
