Coins have survived even when a Dev has gone AWOL (which I don't think he has), having said that it depends on community support to survive.
The Dev quite clearly stated his intended use for this coin so it's up to everybody to make his project a success.
Personally I'd be more than happy to use the coins I hold toward any bounty to hunt down the scammers and scumbags that lurk here trying to rip people off

There's a problem with FIND price and dev's purpose - 1M FIND bounty worth only 0.15btc. With all FIND coins you can put up only 15 btc bounty - and it's a joke comparing to hundreds and thousands and hundreds of thousands bitcoins that scammers ripped off.
A) You need demand for that to work and..
B) You need to prove it can work for the market to believe in it
I'm sure once a few successful low cost bounties are collected and confirmed legitimate the coin may have a chance, until then its pie in the sky until distro is over
