As i have observed, after a bounty campaign finishes, the distribution of reward tokens/stakes took place after the completion of all the ICO's crowdsales. And remind you, that took months. Some ICO's even have to wait for their soft cap to be reached before giving us our dues. And in addition to that, we still have to wait for a couple of months more for those tokens to be listed in exchanges.
Why do "we"(bounty participants) have to wait that long to finally enjoy the fruit of our labor? Don't these ICO's have some starting funds to begin with? Or were they totally dependent to incoming investors for funds?
Simply because as participants, we don't have a choice but to be patient and wait. Bounty projects are undergoing procedures in order to make the crypto itself strong as well as its community. Although there are some cases whereas it takes a long period of time due to uncertainties but there are also those that are not so there's no consistency. As such, we should wait because that's the only thing that we can do on every project.
