⚖️ Bounty Rewards Are Now Guarded by the Community Jury | 6.3

Disputes get resolved before a bounty pays out, so rewards reach genuine quality

Hey Pickful community,

Based on your feedback, we’ve added a fairness layer to Bounties today.


🛡️ Why it matters

A bounty is a project putting real money behind quality content on a topic. But there was a flaw: rewards were split by likes and paid out the moment the bounty expired — so anyone gaming likes, spamming, or posting off-topic could siphon rewards away from creators who did the real work.

The honest get discouraged; the opportunists win. Not what we want.

Our answer: let the community settle disputes before any money moves.


⚖️ How it works

  • When a bounty expires, if any post is under community jury review (suspected like-farming / spam / off-topic), settlement is held until the review concludes.
  • Removed posts drop out of the reward pool, and the remaining rewards are re-split fairly among the qualifying content.
  • Bounties with no disputes settle immediately at the deadline, exactly as before.

The key: whether a post is removed is decided by a randomly selected community jury — not by any single person.


🔍 Who can start a review?

  • The topic’s creator
  • And — the project sponsor who funded the bounty

Spot something suspicious in your own bounty? Sponsors can now open a review. To be clear: the initiator only gets to challenge — the final verdict always rests with the community jury.

This is live across Web, iOS, and Android — no app update needed.


💬 To the community

We believe that on Pickful, people who do the real work deserve real rewards. This review layer exists so every bounty reaches whoever truly earned it. Let’s build a fair, trustworthy crypto community together.
