I think quantity of bounty hunters depends from prices on eth, now it on the bottom - so salary is too low, but if it will grow - hunters will grow too
I have a hope that 2019 will be on 100% another year than this , in 2018 we didnt see no development no grow no many projects... hope it ends with this year
everything what you wrote it is true, but in situation when ETH was 1300$ and than falling to 100 dollars - no one protect from anything, all investors are shocked
