I think it is really possible that we have much more bounty hunter because of this pandemic than the previous years because several of them loss their jobs and as well as they looking for a more convenient work which turns them into cryptos and became a bounty hunter.
That's true but it looks like the new people who have already joined in the bounty campaign are not so much like we have already expected. You can't use the bounty as your main job. People were looking for additional income and that's why the bounty can be another game to generate more additional income. BTW bounty is also like a gambling consider you can't receive the actual payment as the payment totally depends on the how much the price for the coins.
I think people use this as their side job only.
