I took part in the bounty campaign in 2018 and the project has been developing since then. I believe that when it comes to compensation, it is only an oversight or misunderstanding. Many users have received compensation. From what I have observed, only three or four users have reported here that they have not received compensation.
When it comes to bumping service, it is obvious that these are fake accounts. I think that the person who deals with marketing in this project thought that he would have some marketing tool and bought the bumping service from complete fools. It's possible that he doesn't even realize how badly it is see by users on Bitcointalk.
I understand you, but what you will do with useless token on your wallet? You can't sell it or exchange for any valuable coin, you will only have useless numbers to look at.
Any project which uses such a miserable way of promoting it cannot be considered serious. to me, it looks like some kid who may have figured out how some things work and tries to make himself a little fun. Maybe some profit, why not.
You as an older member here, just You give him to the importance.
