Just recently we are beginning to have some Twitter campaign giving hunters reward in btc in the service section. This is one sure way to take off this muster that seem like a cancer called bounty scam.
I'm believing that gradually, will may start seeing the inclusion of other social media signatures like Facebook, LinkedIn, medium, article, videos, blogs and many more, coming up in both bounty section and service. I'm sure that hunters will prefer social media signature than the scam going on in the board.
I guess one reason that we are seeing that Twitter campaign is because of the audit which takes care of non real followers of an account. So if your Twitter account isn't made of real followers, you stand no chance of being selected. The audit is surely to check out accounts with fake followers and that is also good to stop scamming.
Getting bounty rewards paid in Bitcoin doesn't erase scammers, how sure are you that you will get paid because a bounty promised to pay in Bitcoin? Promise is an empty word until it get fulfilled, think about it, even new projects can start promising hunters in eth and BTC but when bounty is over you might not get a dime
If a bounty promise to pay in btc or etheruem, it should be weekly too and if at the end of a week you get no pay then you should advise yourself and move out. That no pay by the week should show you the sign of not being straight to promise and no hope of fulfilling it at the end of the bounty.
Most signature campaign are new project but the difference is the willingness to reward participants and that is why payment is made in btc.
Most casino signature campaign, gambling sites and more are new projects but they didn't go ahead in bounty section or pay in shit token. They are serious and wants to attract serious managers and participants.
