Congratulations to him then, he’s in the top 1% of bounty hunters. As recommended in the blog, perhaps he should demand more from the market. His story is exceedingly rare and bounty programs depend on his efforts, individually, for their success.

Yep, he is a highly skilled and productive hacker (see https://hackerone.com/dawgyg ) and there are many more on HackerOne in that league, earning much more than the article stated.

No, there are not many more like him.
@thedawgyg was awarded 18 bounties in 2018 (1.5 bugs per month), the _93rd_ percentile of all bounty hunters. This is consistent with the report: only the elite earn the lion’s share of bounties. - 5 more replies
