Have you seen the current state of the bounty program on the forum? there are too many newbie - members there, and after some time ago I checked, there are lots of accounts that are connected to one another, which means they are just taking advantage of the opportunity. I'm still in my opinion that the bounty program is no longer relevant here, it's better to use another platform. But for signature campaigns, it's still relevant and effective.
I would like to agree with your words, Currently, the condition of the bounty campaign is very worst. For this situation I will not blame just only the those scammer project. Day by day the increasing of the scam project also there increased those type of participants who were just copy and paste the same post tweet etc and also have dozens of alt accounts. Show currently I would say for smart people now bounty campaign can be no goal
