The actual problem is, I do not even think bounties are useful for project. There are thousands of projects on social media shared by those people. So how can one be seen better than other? Bounties should turn to 'Social mining' so people should compete with each other to create useful content. I really like the social mining concept to be honest.

Bounties are not useful to the project?Then why you are wearing an avatar and promoting a project now?
-Bounties have a different campaign and this is the marketing team of the project which advertises that can reach many countries of the world.

There are thousands of projects on social media shared by those people. So how can one be seen better than others?- Bounty participants are here to advertise and spread the words of the project to the people, the readers are the ones to judge or to choose and study what is worth. and where to invest. Like in Commercials, there are so many shampoos but the consumer are the one to decide which brand to buy.
IMO bounties are easier way as advertisement. Already they give the payments in their own coins and it means that the more fixed money remains in your pocket. There are also those who value their coins more and they pay reward with ETH or other top coins.
I also think signature campaigns are meaningless to most of the newly created projects. More money should be reserved for social media and youtube bounty.
