Maybe I am missing something here, but wasn't initial bounty pool 1,000,000 BIRB and not 300,000?, like @speedforce claims?
300k was the allocation for signature which is 30% of the initial rewards pool (1M tokens, as you could see in the first picture above)
Ah I see, I knew I was missing something there. Did participants in other parts of bounty campaign get their token, or it was the same scenario as with signature campaign participants?
In the first place, they didn't mention anything about kyc things on their campaign's terms. Whether its necessary or not for hunters to perform kyc in order to join the campaign, I think it wasn't totally surprised if they would charge hunters to do so once the campaign ended.
Yep, changing rules and introducing KYC is standard practice of majority of bounty campaigns as their goal is to send as less tokens as possible, and KYC is one of the best ways to eliminate bounty hunters, all under pretension of wanting to eliminate the scammers.
