Bounty Board Concepts

Bounties are units of work that have some reward attached to them - do the work and you get the reward!

Bounties have two types of users:

creators are those who offer a reward to get work done for them

contributors are those who do work to get a reward

Bounties have the following states:

Draft - Creators create bounties in draft mode. This allows the creator to double-check all information.

Open - Creators publish bounties to make them open to be claimed by contributors.

In-Progress - Contributors claim bounties to work on them. Once claimed, a bounty is In-Progress while the work is being completed.

In-Review - Contributors submit bounties to be reviewed by creators.

Completed - Creators complete bounties to signal they have accepted the work.

Bounties are paid by creators outside of the bounty board. There is currently no facility in the bounty board to accept or disburse tokens. This will be added in the future, but for now most bounty creators pay via Discord tipping or direct-to-wallet.

Discord Quick Start Guide

You can use the bounty board on Discord via Bountybot, our lovable Discord helper!
