Do you think we have more bounty workers now that people are on lockdown or do not have a job yet because of the pandemic?
I don't think so, just like in the real world, earning income from the current bounty is not completely reliable. Just like getting lucky when you get rewarded after work, because so much is pending due to this pandemic and unsuccessful sales.
Of course, there are exceptions to the bounty legend with BTC rewards, it is still reliable and very legitimate. But if we talk about bounties in general, another story.
But, surely many people are trying their luck with a join bounty. Moreover, this doesn't require a lot of capital, but I am sure when they find out the fact that getting rewards is not as easy as they imagined, moreover there are many scams, surely many new hunters will slowly give up too. The battlefield for the bounty campaign is full of struggles and challenges at this time, only the patient, strong, and lucky will survive.
