I think it may be possible that bounty payments henceforth may be very much low valued that what it is last year and early this year. This is an obvious discouragement for a lot of people but for the rest bounty faithfuls may smile eventually when the not so valueable bounty token gains in value when the market returns. It will be a great one. So far I am not interested in what their values could be as the market forces will always crash prices but holding can compensate on the long run
The problem here is many projects will fail because of this bear market and no one see crypto market as a great place to invest anymore except for some special projects. So the bounty participants wont get paid at all.
