This $1900 bug bounty is quite an outlier, you generally won’t find one per month. An additional challenge is that it’s hard to predict how much work something will take, or whether there are any showstoppers. Also, if you don’t live in the same country as the client, it will be more difficult to get legal assurance that you’ll receive your money (or for the client that they won’t lose their money).




You bought up a lot of points. And I think they are all negligible, compared to the gigantic elephant in the room.

Which is, in order for some rando to fix the bug; a company would need to give access to their codebase to some rando.

And they don't wanna do that.
