I have seen few
topic on forum lately that few people's are want to leave crypto-currency due to continue bear markets. They are finding job or whatever. That's why my topic title is
earning Bitcoin is good, but don't depend on it since most of we are not whales.
There are only a few Bitcoin paying bounties left. Lending is no longer an effective way of earning bitcoins, neither is gambling. And these are not practised by whales, whales engage in active trading or go long on bitcoins.
I agree with you that no one should depend on bitcoin bounties, but I don't think anyone really does (except when limited by situation).
