Bounty section on this forum is now very quiet compare to last year, why is that? Now that bull run is in motion what is stopping new developers from releasing their project?
Bull market pushed some vaporware, that is correct and the craze was big at that time. Currently the market is in a slow phase of movements and that is attributable to the less activity in bounty section. Added to this is the fact that many ICOs towards the later part of the 2017-18 failed to reach any good financial support level.
Or maybe they don't have any more idea?
They never actually did have any. It was mostly hype. Dont think that people have learnt a lesson. They will be back like dogs again when market becomes bullish to commit the same mistakes and lose more money.
Even scam projects are greatly reduced
This I disagree. Scammers are always there since time immemorial.
