Yes, committed bounty hunters definitely develop an eye for crypto projects that standard people likely don't. Maybe an earlier bounty hunter wouldn't have this yet though.
Out of 10 bounty hunters only 1 or 2 will be checking the projects that they are going to do bounty. So that if the project is good they can invest in their ICO also. Balance just go for bounty coins and when the project hits the market they immediately sell it in any price.
