I`m afraid that you will be disappointed if you wait for December to be clear on Eth price. They announced upgrade for January, when that happens eth will be in turbulent times, its something that every hardfork causes. We will see more volatility in that period, price can move in any direction. Consequences of the hardfork, it will take time for everything to be checked and rechecked, for upgrade to be accepted. What will happen with ethereum will have a big impact, don`t think anything else, and we need to give couple months for everything to settle down, after that we will see where eth is and where its going, until that we can just hope for the best.

Well it depends. Higher the no. of participants lower will be your stake and that obviously bounty hunters won't like it. Also in case of lower no. of participants their will be higher stake resulting in unevenly high rate of payout which obviously team would resist to pay so many would payout by changing some rules or the structure which will result in conflict.

I think fixed bounty allocation is better way, both for the bounty hunters and the team. I have tested out myself and have seen stake model bounties fail most of the time.

not all projects will be as successful as you think, even though those listed on the IEO are large exchanges. I followed some IEO, it looks safer and faster, but it makes the investment cycle in new projects also go very fast. many investors take off their coins when trading opens. not much to hold back for long.

But whales will enter the market there will be pump for sure but they are already in the market it's just that they are waiting for the right time to invest and it's honestly a business tactics for them to cash out at high value and we the mid-level investors are at the receiving end during every dump so we need to play smart this time. I really hope ETH recovers but as far as last few weeks it's not going in a favorable condition.

Even if ETH 2.0 will get released during this time to fix every problem i think it won't affect the price to raise up again once the bitcoin is dropping. Taking a look at the market now seems almost coins were bleeding and yet we can not assure when it stop.

I once came across an article where it was stated that over 60 percent of most crypto transaction were used for betting. I don't see anything wrong with that. But don't you think it portrays crypto in a bad way?

At least with fixed bounty allocation we know how much "money" we get at the end. Most of them give limitation bounty participant and if you think that not worth to join you can skip whenever you want.

Korean exchange delisted privacy coin it just goverment issue. The korean goverment wont privacy coins used by peoples to do bad things like drugs , money loundry , and anything about ilegal activity. So Okex is doing what that should they do.

If the project fails to deliver the promised working product, I will accuse the team too. The price is linked to the value of the project and temporary dumps will not be a dominant factor in the fate of the project. The coin price can go up and down, the bounty hunters only share the negative sides of the whole process, it is not the right strategy for reaching the high prices from my experience. 

I had the opportunity to sell their altcoins at low price and get for them at least a little money. Now I do I can not get their shit coins and my only regret is his indecision. So if you see a price drop on your coin, then sell it, do not wait until the price for it will be almost zero.

I did not notice that many of the projects raised good funds during the ico, most projects raise a lot of money in the ieo and on good exchanges, these coins are developing.

this happened with a very large number of coins. such a price reduction is very sad, but we have no choice but to wait for better times

The last news by the Okex branch will be the reason for the decreasing price of the privacy altcoin. There are several causes for this action by the exchanges, the main one is the problems with the terms of regulation. Exchanges want to comply with the rules of the agreement by the official regulators but the untraceable blockchains will be shady for these organizations for tracking the trancationson on the blockchain.

If a bounty has more than 2000 participants in each campaign, stake based bounties are making no sense anymore, because everybody would get a tiny bit of tokens. In such cases fixed allocation with limited participation is much better.

Recently, I have noticed a very popular trend, when Bounty companies do not comply with the terms of the transaction.  After completing a bounty company, participants always receive a lot less reward than promised from the start.  As an example, companies like ADAB, MenaPay, Dabbling and many others can be cited.

if I read the news above, of course some exchange are open their service in country must comply with existing regulation.
that's why this is one problem can solve from CEX and people make solution by creating DEX for fix this problem.
exchange can't do anything with goverment regulation or they must stop the services

Well it's better than giving people false promises regarding their privacy. As soon as your real information is linked with a privacy coin like XMR or ZEC then it loses much of its anonymity.

I think other platforms will soon be cracking down on privacy coins, though these will just make the decentralized exchanges stronger.
