Don't expect 2017 to be back again for bounty projects because now a days all the ICO projects are shit and very less likely to be successful which means you are wasting a lot of your times with no gain almost.
Come on man, even though we aren't going to see 2017, that doesn't mean there will not be a successful project among those projects bounty hunters will participate in. Many projects have been successful after the 2017 period, remember this; that in every successful project with a hunter yield more profit than anyone with regular signature campaign. Also, they have first hand information about newly successful tokens to trade.
