I am research bounty that i want to join, because not want to waste time for sure. If a project get scam, it is not only investor but bounty hunters who actually get bad affect (of course because the reward will not have value). That is why bounty hunters really must make research first because it is not for investors only but for them too.
but sometimes research we do is wrong and in the end we can join scam project, I myself feel very confused to determine bounty because scammers really have in common with real project
It always happen, not only to you, but maybe for a lot of other people here too. Me sometime get project that success in sale, but not success in listed market and some of them don't have value in the market so i can't sell my rewards.
