I don't think the Bounty program is over.
Of course, the ICO market has died a lot, but I think the Bounty program will continue until a new marketing plan is released.
Or if there is a new marketing plan that I don't know about, please let me know.
You are right that the bounty market is still not over as we have so many ICO that is still being released but those ICO being released, they are only just trying their best, most of the project will eventually pack up when they dont meet up with their softcap which has so much become difficult for them now.
There was a time that I even learnt that after several advertisement of a particular project and announcement, all they could raise is about $500, and that is form very few investors that just want to put very little money for safety sake. There is need for us to start doing thing that will encourage investors back to the market now which I think IEO has tried doing but IEO too is not that great because they are not finding good projects that will not destroy their name to promote.
bounty programs are not going to be over. of course there will be projects that will be promoted almost every day. its up to those who promotes the project if they see the project to be real and not a scam just like the ones we do have in the couple of years. only few of the projects that we can consider not a scam but few of them only got to the exchanges, few more were considered to have volume. the rest still were scam even after it got listed to the exchanges. its best if they just pay in BTC so we'll know they are serious.
