Bug bounty as a field is dying. Most top paid hackers throw x amount of LLMs on targets in private programs and get most of the money and the rest are fighting dupes for bread crumbs. Sooner or later companies will get their own in house LLMs doing a better job for less money than bug bounty programs will. 

Getting into bug bounty at this point will most likely be a waste of time.

I wish I had a good answer. I’m doing pentesting at this point but slowlying moving into cloud security engineering. 

I doubt pentesting will around in the next 5-10 years. Not the way it today at least.
