Inside the Life of a Full-Time Bug Hunter: Weekly Insights and Goals

I hope you are doing great. I am a full-time bug hunter and have been successfully doing it for a few years now. I am thinking of sharing with you how the life of a full-time bug hunter looks like through weekly write-ups.

I will post a new article every week (Monday) , which will include details such as the number of hours I spend on bug bounty hunting, the number of bugs I reported, and how much money I made. Additionally, I will share resources such as blogs I read or any other useful materials to help you improve in bug hunting.

You will get to see the ups and downs of a full-time bug hunter’s lifestyle. If you like this idea, please do follow me for weekly updates.

The first article will definitely come out on Monday (3–4 days left). I am thinking of spending 3–4 days on a Hackerone Public program to see if I could find something.

What am I expecting from you? Nothing. The weekly article will help me to be more productive for the rest of the year.

We will choose a better program next week; until then, I will stick to what I was working on. My goal for the next 3–4 days is to find at least one valid bug on this public program; it can be any severity issue. The program is well-tested and has undergone many LHE’s, so if I find even a low-severity issue, it will motivate me to push further.

For lows and mediums, they are paying between 300–1000 USD, so any bounty for 3–4 days of work will be worth it for me.

I will be back on Monday. Until then, keep working.
