I once found a bug for a company and reported it on Hackerone. Then they said it was a duplicate bug report and paid nothing but also immediately fixed it. My problem is most bug bounty programs put the power completely in the hands of the company.
I think there is probably a market for a site where users post the bounties with a detailed and accurate description and their desired price or the community and affected company bid to determine the value of a bug. The affected company could then "purchase" the bug and then the person who filed the report would pay an authoritative trusted third party like a professional security firm to verify the vulnerability. Then the person who found and reported it gets paid if the third party verifies it exists. The company would only get the vulnerability description if the third party verifies it to exist.
