Truth be told. You can't be jobless and be doing bounties. You will starve Grin

My advice is to just see bounties as a pass time and don't be too expectant. Find some other job that gives you money. So many factors determine if you will get good rewards from bounties. For instance, when it lists, the price is out of the control of the team (unless they decide to do a buyback which rarely happens). The price of the token can rise if there is a lot of demand for it when it lists. But most times (since the bear run) the demand is low and to make it worse, several holders set ridiculously low prices just to sell off which devalues the coin.

Another factor that determines your reward is the authenticity as well as the success of the team and its project. Many campaigns have closed down in the past after several months of working on them only to announce that they failed to raise enough funds for the project. Worse case is the team devs exit scam and no one gets paid.

Project owners can also decide to execute their "reserved rights" by changing the rules at the end of successful campaigns. Rules changes can usually mean bounty rewards are reduced, locked, subjected to uninformed KYC checks, or distributed over a very long period of time.

If you consider all this then you will see that bounty campaigns are a gamble and cannot be always relied on to provide regular income for people participating in it. Those that participated in Deex bounty campaign (which ended in January 2019) are still waiting for their rewards (3 months after) and the devs are not communicating any date for the distribution. If you ask them they will say "soon". They have been saying "soon" since January, by the way. I'm not trying to slander the project or anything. I'm just advising fellow bounty hunters to try to get something else to do that will fetch them money and not to rely too much on bounty campaigns for payments.

I really agree with you ! It is better to have a stable job in the real life, don't rely in doing bounty campaigns, for the reasons that not all bounties are successful and mostly we bounty hunters are not getting paid by the ICO development team. If you take risk on engaging your life on doing bounties , then there is a big chance for you to starve, so find some stable job and make bounties just a part time job.

Bounty are only an extra income, that you dont really depend it. So its better to have a good job while you work in the bounty. Because there are bounty are will not paid immediately, and the rewards they give is not really enough.The best you can do, if you receive a rewards just make it as a savings only or just keep it first until value is good.
