I heard that what most bounty managers do is to conduct the bounty project and later submit to projects teams for distribution, is this not why some projects never paid bounty hunters?
+The job of a bounty manager should be the guide standing between bounty hunters and project teams
+ Bounty managers should be the ones to hold on to the project tokens and distribute after bounty ends
Avoid these and teams might decide not to pay or send out half payments to half of the hunters, it should be more like how IEO is where exchange stands between investors and team
I think it still depends on their arrangement and agreement of each other. Some bounty ends up unsuccessful so it ends up nothing but sometimes ends up successful too so it depends unless that newly open bounty campaign might have a previous campaign and reopen to make another project and profits as well maybe that is the time that a Manager of that bounty can hold the payments.
There were times when the bounty manager itself are the ones taking the tokens so it would be really hard for the team to trust them too, also bounty manager can easily get those tokens and can manipulate the sheet, so the team needs to handle the tokens, I won't agree that the manager will handle it, but still depends if the bounty manager is trusted like Yahoo then why not.
