Yes, your points is very correct, bounty hunters enquiries and questions are needed on these projects, at least, to know the peogress of the project that they are participating. Many of us have hard of certain shortcomings of various project where hunters were denied payments and sometimes, projects suspended and all hunter effort wasted. In my opinion,i think these question are very helpful to every serious bounty hunter, and obviously, these are not actually a problem but a normal thing in crypto ecosystems.
