Making money in this space requires patience and consistency. One could spend up to six months gathering airdrop and bounty tokens without getting any money. The most important factor is getting the knowledge of how things are done and being familiar with the process.
Please only participate in bounty as a part-time job. Because you won't get too much money out of them, and you need to wait a long time to pick up and sell. As you said, given the current bounty status we need to wait at least 6 months to receive the bounty money if they succeed and list them on exchanges.
