Have you ever asked yourself this question?
What happens to unallocated bounty tokens?
There have been several bounty campaigns where some participants do not qualify after being screened, such as those who fail to pass the kyc due to multiple accounts or other reasons, detected bots or cheaters who use other people's details.
Most times, stakes would have been calculated and tokens allocated on the spreadsheet to be submitted for distribution, before the screening process is completed. Which then means that some tokens will be left undistributed.
Where do these tokens then go to?
In my opinion, in order to reward the faithful and sincere hunters, I want to suggest that all the screening should first be completed, before stakes are calculated and prior to allocation of tokens to bounty participants.
So stakes should not be calculated for cheaters.
This is just my opinion, it is opened to discussion.
What do you think?
Some bounties certainly have their own rules regarding the tokens they will share. If filtering occurs, of course they have a reason to do that. Because more fraudulent bounty users are increasing and participants don't understand what the other participants will overwrite at all. An unallocated bounty token issue might be retrieved by the bounty owner.
