For me the problem here is the project I guess, If the project has a good target and good platform and if its very helpful this one has chance a massive adoption they it can produced demand for the token/coin/crypto. but is hasn't any utility this will result a huge dump.
Being a bounty hunter in my past when I am newbie, I joined on any bounty campaign because I only knows that is income for me and I don't care at all if this is scam or not productive and active project. I got a lot of mistakes when I'm newbie.
