Bounty hunters influence is big in cryptocurrency. Do you know more than fifty percent of bounty hunters also invest in the campaign they are involve with? In reality, bounty hunters are also an investors, so project should not mess with them!
Where did you get that information if more than 50% of them are also investor? Afaik most of bounty hunters don't want invest their money because they don't want to risk their money on market like this
50% is not correct! Probably small percentage of investors are hunters as well. To tell you honestly if I really like the project I'll surely invest some to it. But I agree that devs should not mess with hunters as they may create FUD's or make something bad if not paid.
