What I've learnt about bounties so far
1)many bounty hunters are joining bounties that has huge stake allocations like 300,000$ upward ,some are even after the 1000000$ ones well I've stop hunting for projects that lure hunters with huge rewards as many of them are plain rubbish
2)I've learn to always join bounties that are already listed and trading with good volume and mind you these bounties always have low bounty rewards like 75k to 100k but there is high assurance of selling your tokens if you wish to ,not keeping coins that will never see the light of the days again ,I mean tokens that will never get listed
3)there are few bounty managers that I respect ,they take there job very serious and I always like to follow them ,waiting for them to launch new bounties ,I prefer to join 4-5 projects in a year than promoting shitcoins
I am also a victim of that illusion. When the bounty was began, the manager indicated that 5% of the total budget will allocate in bounty programs. In fact, I am happy when the bounty ends because I am only the member participant and 50% of allocated budget in signature campaign will my reward. But 2 weeks after it ends,it becomes 0.5%. What a great disaster for me. I thought I already a millionaire but it goes nothing.
sometimes it is really annoying if at any time the gift manager can change the budget allocation that will be given to the people who participate in it, while in the regulation there is no notification if at any time budget allocation can be changed. therefore before we decide to participate in promoting the project to be launched, we must be able to choose a trusted manager who certainly has a good reputation from the success of previous projects
