I'm not here to discourage you about bounty campaigns that are managed by the project team themselves, I'm here to tell you that you need to be extremely cautious, I've noticed that team managing campaigns themselves is not good
1. They have all the freedom of doing any how with your rewards
2. They can change certain rules that aren't reasonable, just because it's their project and they are handling the distribution they are free to do some bad things
3. Bounty Managers are very very important, you can get them nailed for not facing the team to force them to do distribution but you can't fight the team yourself
I'm sure I'm not the only one who sees things this way, or am I?
I have been working in bounty companies since 2017 and have already gone through many different companies. I can say that the situations were different. There were such bounties, which were managed as the teams of companies themselves, there were individual managers and that some of them had problems from time to time. I cannot say how and with whom it is better to participate, but during these 3 years many managers and teams have shown themselves and many have discredited themselves. I agree on one thing that it is necessary to choose bounty companies more carefully and pay more attention to proven bounty managers.
