It's not a bad idea, but it has its drawbacks. When you participate in a bounty campaign and get coins for it, you can not know how this project is promising, but in my practice there were cases when the price of the coin unexpectedly exceeded the price of the ICO by 10-20 times. If I had received an award in the USDT, I would have never bought such coins and my profit would have been fixed.
Alas, such profits are now only in dreams, basically the price drops and then you can only wait and hope for the best. Therefore, let it be better to have a fixed profit, which will definitely remain in your wallet, and then you will distribute your assets yourself as it will be better for you, without dropping the price of the project coin.
