It is not a secret that most for now ICO is a bubble and there is too many projects trying to gather funds this way. I expect this bubble to dump in the next year and then we will be able to see the real amount of ICOs. This will definetely affect the bounty campaigns on this forum. What are you expecting? Will the bounty campaigns change their rates (not only in btc but also in usd value) or they just won't be affective and devs will give up on them?
I'm curious to hear the opinion of mature users of this forum that seen the developement of such campaign activities.
ICOs and Bounties will not die. They will professionalize, as it will be harder and harder for "rookie" ICO teams and "rookie" bounty hunters to make a significant profit out of such activities. This is the same cycle as could be seen with e.g. eBay - at the start, anyone could make money by selling anything from used stuff to unwanted gifts. Today 99% are pros, and if you "just want to sell your old couch", there is nothing for you there to look for
