I am pessimistic that the bounty mission will disappear in the future, and ICO will not succeed unless ICO is regulated. The bounty mission is based on the ICO project, and if the ICO project disappears, the bounty mission will disappear.
Right now I'm too much concern about the future of bounty because there's no assurance that it will become success again like before. But I always tell to my self to keep believing and keep waiting for the good time in bounty program. And being optimistic can help us to keep participating in bounty and believe to it.
A good time will arrive but that may not be for the coins/toekn you're holding. I mean to say nothing is assured one here in this crypto environment. Be prepared for facing anything. Bounty programs may exist for ever but how transparent it will be working for both devs and participant is the biggest question right now in front of all of us.
Lot of people are making many good suggestions to bring changes into bounty programs but I'm not seeing anyone giving value to those suggestions. When we will be having a regulated environment for the bounty programs then that will be less scams to happen. We only need to bring changes to this environment, if we keep waiting for that changes to happen on its own then that good time may not arrive for ever.
