Bot Automates GitHub Bounty Hunting, Learns From Rejections
A developer built a bot that scans GitHub for issues tagged with bounties, submits pull requests, and learns from rejections. It made nine PRs in four hours but now limits to 1-2 per day to avoid spam detection. The bot aims to eventually generate autonomous income through NFT minting and DeFi arbitrage.

The bot's approach highlights the tension between automation and appearing human, but its real value may be in training for higher-stakes security audits rather than GitHub bounties.
