think if you want to be a citizen because there are many risks. don't bet your money on coins and bad team like citizen team.
1. citizen prices dropped drastically starting from $300, now only $50
2. see the reputation of the citizen team. very bad and unprofessional team, 70% bounty reward not paid. and anyone who asks for a bounty in the telegram group will be banned by the team.
this is like limiting the rights of the members.
On which group did you ask about the payment, if it is in the official group of citizen finance then they have the right to ban or mute you and its written in every bounty rules that asking for payment in official groups are not permitted however if its done inside the bounty managers group then something is not right.
Dumping of the price is normal and does happen to other coins but scamming the bounty participants is a sign of a bad quality project. My vote would be the same with you, I would sell my coins if ever I have them and replaced them with a more better project that is trusted and has a respect with the bounty hunters.
