Everyone,
The purpose of this thread is to promote bounties that
do not require KYC verification for bounty hunters.
This thread also provides an opportunity for bounty managers to post promises that their bounties will not require a surprise KYC at the end.
Surprise KYC requirements are increasingly being used as a way for projects to get out of paying bounty hunters. ICOs that lack integrity realize not all Bounty Hunters will do what is required to fulfill KYC requirements for one reason or another.
All Bounty Hunters have a Right to choose what projects they support, and the terms must be stated clearly at the start of the campaign! Failure to make a statement on KYC requirements at the start of a bounty is an integrity violation. We as bounty hunters must learn to assume that campaigns that fail to make a statement regarding KYC are violating their Bounty Hunter's trust and should be avoided.
For many bounty hunters, it is not worth entrusting our most personal information to multiple projects in return for a small amount of coins or tokens. Identity theft related to KYC requirements is being discussed here:

https://bt.irlbtc.com/view/454795.0Anecdotally, I have never seen any evidence that Bounty Hunters are indeed required by law to perform KYC validation. Nor from my own reading of the BSA and Title III of the USA PATRIOT Act can I see how Bounty Hunters could be included in KYC requirements. Bounty Hunters are neither investors nor customers.
Please post responses from moderators and devs who have said they will not require KYC for your favorite bounties and warn others of projects that did not clearly state KYC requirements on their Bounty ANN. You may also post horror stories of bounties you have lost because of KYC requirements that were not originally posted as being required of bounty hunters.
Let's support projects that are honest, and ensure they get the best of our time and energy!
Good luck my fellow Bounty Hunters!
I'm trying my best to get devs to respond directly in BCT. At the moment most of my fastest responses were over Telegram (Screen name: Bobby Dole).
