If I can't find a bounty project that's already listed and trading I'm done joining bounties.
No matter how reasonable a project might be if the teams decided to stay anonymous I will pass by
Whitepapers and roadmaps aren't enough anymore,developers should be ready to face the public and be ready to show me they are ready to work ,not experimental on 'it might became success or failure .
I will not argue with you. Bounties are for the beginners mostly. If you feel that you are ready for something more serious like trading, do not deal with these projects anymore. Trade!
If you can work with your knowledge and you think you are ready to go why not proceed and start finding your luck into a much serious matter inside this industry, bounties are still possible if you are willing to take the risk and if you gained some profits use it for your trading investment it will grow your chances to succeed.
